Q:       What is the purpose of the offering?

A:       The offering  gives you the  opportunity to become a stockholder of our
         newly formed holding company,  Carnegie  Financial  Corporation,  which
         will allow you to share  indirectly  in our  future as a federal  stock
         savings  bank.  The stock  offering will increase our capital and funds
         for lending and investment  activities.  As a stock savings institution
         operating  through a holding  company  structure,  we will have greater
         flexibility for operations, expansion and diversification.

Q:       How do I purchase the stock?

A:       You must complete and return the stock order form to us  together  with
         your payment, on or before 12:00 p.m. (noon), Eastern Time, __________,

A:       The minimum  purchase is 25 shares (or $250).  The maximum  purchase is
         5,000  shares  (or  $50,000),  for any  individual  person  or  persons
         ordering through a single account. No person, related person or persons
         acting together,  may purchase in the conversion more than 7,500 shares
         (or  $75,000).  We  may  decrease  or  increase  the  maximum  purchase
         limitation  without  notifying  you. In the event that the  offering is
         oversubscribed,  we will  allocate  shares  based  upon  your  purchase
         priority.

Q:      What happens if there are not enough shares to fill all orders?

A:       You might not receive any or all of the shares you  want  to  purchase.
         If there is an oversubscription in the subscription offering, the stock
         will be offered on the following priority basis:

         o        Persons who had a deposit account of at least $50 with  us  on
                  November 30, 1996 ("Eligible Account Holders").

         o        Any  remaining  shares will be offered to the  employee  stock
                  ownership plan of Carnegie Savings Bank ("ESOP").

         o        Any  remaining  shares  will be offered  to persons  who had a
                  deposit  account  of at least  $50 with us on March  31,  1998
                  ("Supplemental Eligible Account Holders").

         o        Any remaining shares will be offered to other persons entitled
                  to vote on the approval of the conversion ("Other Members").


If the above  persons do not  subscribe  for all of the  shares,  the  remaining
shares may be offered  either  directly by Carnegie  Financial  Corporation in a
community  offering or in a best efforts public  offering.  We have the right to
reject any stock order in the  community  offering.  In the event of a community
offering,  preference  will be given to natural  persons  residing in  Allegheny
County.  You are prohibited from transferring or entering into any understanding
to transfer your subscription rights.

The Companies
                         Carnegie Financial Corporation
                               17 West Mall Plaza

         Carnegie Financial  Corporation is not an operating company and has not
engaged in any significant business to date. It was formed in February 1998 as a
Pennsylvania-chartered  corporation  to be  the  holding  company  for  Carnegie
Savings Bank. The holding company structure will provide greater  flexibility in
terms of operations, expansion and diversification. See page ____.

                              Carnegie Savings Bank
                               17 West Mall Plaza
                          Carnegie, Pennsylvania 15106
                                 (412) 276-1266

         Carnegie  Savings  Bank  began  operations  in  1915  under  the  name,
"Carnegie  Savings  Building and Loan." In 1995, we converted to a state savings
bank  charter  and  obtained  Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Corporation  ("FDIC")
insurance  through the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF").  In __________ ___, 1998, we
converted to a federal mutual savings bank charter, became subject to regulation
by the Office of Thrift  Supervision  ("OTS") and  retained  our FDIC  insurance
through BIF. We are a community and customer  oriented  federal  mutual  savings
bank.  We  provide  financial  services  to  individuals,   families  and  small
businesses.  Historically,  we have  emphasized  residential  mortgage  lending,
primarily  originating one- to four-family mortgage loans. At December 31, 1997,
we had total  assets of $16.7  million,  deposits  of $15.2  million,  and total
retained earnings of $1.2 million. See pages ____ to ____.

The Stock Offering

         Carnegie Financial  Corporation is offering between 153,000 and 207,000
shares  of  common  stock at $10 per share  ("Purchase  Price").  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,  we may increase the offering to 238,050
shares  without  further  notice to you. If an increase in the offering  size is
approved,  you will not have the opportunity to change or cancel any stock order
previously delivered to us. See page ____.

Stock Purchase Priorities

         The shares of common  stock  will be  offered on the basis of  purchase
priorities.  Certain depositors 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 or a public offering. We
have engaged Capital Resources, Inc. to assist in the selling of common stock on
a best-efforts basis. See pages ____ to ____.

Subscription Rights

         You may not sell or assign your  subscription  rights.  Any transfer of
subscription rights is prohibited by law. See page ____.

The Offering Range and Determination of the Price Per Share

         The  offering  range  is  based  on an  independent  appraisal  of  the
estimated  pro forma  market  value of the  common  stock by  FinPro,  Inc.,  an
appraisal  firm  experienced in appraisals of savings  institutions.  FinPro has
estimated,  that in its opinion as of March 12, 1998 the aggregate estimated pro
forma market value of the common stock ranged between  $1,530,000 and $2,070,000
with a midpoint of $1,800,000 (the "EVR").  The estimated pro forma 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 updated estimated pro forma market value of the common stock
is either below  $1,530,000 or above  $2,380,500,  you will be notified and will
have the opportunity to modify or cancel your order. See pages ____ to ____.



Termination of the Offering

         The subscription offering will terminate at 12:00 p.m. (noon),  Eastern
Time, on __________  ___, 1998. The community  offering or public  offering,  if
any, may  terminate  at any time without  notice but no later than 45 days after
completion of the subscription  offering,  without approval by the OTS. See page
____.

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,  no  earlier  than six months
following  completion  of the  conversion,  which may benefit our  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.  If we adopt  the
restricted  stock plan,  our executive  officers and  directors  will be awarded
common stock at no cost to them. See pages ____ to ____.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Use of the Proceeds Raised from the Sale of Common Stock

         Carnegie  Financial  Corporation will use a portion of the net proceeds
from the stock  offering 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.  After  payment for our common  stock,
Carnegie  Financial  Corporation  will retain up to 50% of the funds received in
the stock  offering as its initial  capitalization.  We will use the proceeds of
the sale of the common stock to make  investments and fund loans.  See page ____
for the range of offering proceeds.



Dividends

         CFC does not expect to pay  dividends  during the first year  following
the  conversion.  We may establish a dividend  policy after the first year.  See
page ____.

Market for the Common Stock

         Due to the small size of the  offering,  it is unlikely  that an active
and liquid 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.
Following the completion of the offering,  it is anticipated that the CFC common
stock will be traded on the OTC  Bulletin  Board.  Capital  Resources,  Inc.  is
expected to make a market in the common stock. However, Capital Resources,  Inc.
will not be subject to any  obligation  with respect to such  efforts.  See page
____.

Important Risks in Owning 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.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RECENT DEVELOPMENTS


Financial Condition

         Total assets remained relatively constant at March 31, 1998 as compared
to December 31, 1997. Net loans receivable increased  approximately  $958,000 to
$10.5  million at March 31, 1998 from $9.6 million at December  31,  1997.  Such
increase was offset by a $703,000  decrease in net  investment  securities.  The
funds received from net investment  securities were used to fund the increase in
net loans  receivable.  All other  assets and  liabilities  remained  relatively
constant for the March 31, 1998 period.

         Real estate owned  decreased  $3,000 to $519,000 at March 31, 1998 from
$522,000  at  December  31,  1997.  Total  non-accrual  and  accrual  loans were
unchanged at March 31, 1998 as compared to December 31, 1997.

Results of Operations

         Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1998 remained unchanged
as  compared  to the same period in 1997.  The $6,000  increase in net  interest
income for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was  primarily  the result of a
$142,000  increase in net earning  assets for the period.  The average  interest
rate spread for the three  months  ended  March 31,  1998 was 2.96%  compared to
2.91% for the same period in 1997. The net yield on interest  earning assets for
the three months  ended March 31, 1998 was 3.29%  compared to 3.23% for the same
period in 1997.

         Other  income  increased  $6,000 to $13,000 for the three  months ended
March 31,  1998 from  $7,000 for the  comparable  period in 1997.  In 1997,  the
Savings Bank recognized a $7,000 loss on OREO property sold.

         Other expenses increased $12,000 to $141,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 from $129,000 for the comparable  period in 1997. The increase in
other expenses was primarily the result of a $5,000 increase in compensation and
benefits and a $7,000 increase in general and administrative  expenses primarily
due to an increase in the cost of the Savings Bank's service bureau.

Capital Resources

         Management  monitors  risk-based capital and leverage capital ratios in
order to assess  compliance with regulatory  guidelines.  At March 31, 1998, the
Savings Bank had tangible  capital,  leverage  and total  risk-based  capital of
6.98%, 6.98% and 16.04%,  which exceeded the OTS's minimum  requirement of 1.5%,
3.0%, and 8.00%, respectively.

Subsequent Events

         In April 1998,  our service  bureau advised us that we will be assessed
an aggregate fee of  approximately  $10,000 for Year 2000  compliance.  This fee
will be billed to us on a twelve  month basis in  addition  to our monthly  data
processing fee.

                                  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.

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 (e.g. such as
mortgage loans and investment securities) and the interest expense we pay on our
interest-bearing  liabilities  (such as deposits and borrowings).  Substantially
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 up to 30 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 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 mortgage-backed securities.

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.  It is anticipated  that CFC common stock will be traded on OTC Bulletin
Board. The common stock may not be appropriate as a short-term  investment.  See
"Market for the Common Stock."

Additional Capital; Return on Equity

   
         As a result of the conversion,  we will have, on a consolidated  basis,
total equity that is substantially more than our equity prior to the conversion.
Loan demand is not expected to increase correspondingly,  and thus we are likely
to be faced with the choice of either  investing  capital in lower yielding debt
securities or making higher risk investments to increase yield. Furthermore,  we
are not  expected  to be able  to  immediately  leverage  the new  capital,  and
therefore,  the increase in equity may  adversely  affect  return on equity (net
income  divided by  average  equity),  absent a  corresponding  increase  in net
income.  Our return on equity was  (4.62)%,  8.28% and 7.74% for the years ended
December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 respectively. We initially intend to invest the
net proceeds in short and medium term  investments  which  generally  have lower
yields than loans.  There can be no  assurance  that we will be able to increase
net income in future periods in amounts commensurate with the increase in equity
resulting from the conversion. ^ See "Pro Forma Data." Furthermore,  current OTS
policy on stock
    

                                        1

<PAGE>



repurchases  by CFC could limit our  flexibility  in utilizing the net proceeds.
See "Use of Proceeds"  and "The  Conversion  --  Restrictions  on  Repurchase of
Stock."

Intent to Remain Independent

     We have operated as an independent  community oriented savings  association
since  1915.  It is our  intention  to  continue  to operate  as an  independent
community oriented savings  association  following the conversion.  Accordingly,
you are  urged  not to  subscribe  for  shares  of our  common  stock if you are
anticipating   a  quick  sale  by  us.  See  "Business  of  Carnegie   Financial
Corporation."

Dependence on Local Economy

         We operate as a community-oriented financial institution,  with a focus
on servicing  customers in our primary  market area of Carnegie and  surrounding
areas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.  At December 31, 1997, most of our loan
portfolio  consisted of loans made to borrowers and collateralized by properties
located  in our  primary  market  area.  As a result  of this  concentration,  a
downturn in the economy of our primary  market area could  increase  the risk of
loss associated with our loan portfolio.
See "Business of Carnegie Savings Bank - Market Area."

Anti-Takeover  Provisions and Statutory Provisions That Could Discourage Hostile
Acquisitions of Control

         Provisions in CFC'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 CFC more
difficult.  In addition,  these  provisions  may reduce the trading price of our
stock. These provisions include: restrictions on the acquisition of CFC'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 super-majority provisions for the
approval of certain business combinations.
See "Restrictions on Acquisitions of Carnegie Financial Corporation".

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  17% 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 CFC's  articles of
incorporation.  See "Proposed Purchases by Directors and Officers,"  "Management
of Carnegie  Savings Bank -- Executive  Compensation,"  "Description  of Capital
Stock," and "Restrictions on Acquisitions of Carnegie Financial Corporation."


                                        2

Possible Dilutive Effect of Restricted Stock Plan and Stock Options

         If the conversion is completed and shareholders  approve the restricted
stock plan ("RSP") and stock  option  plan,  we will issue stock to our officers
and directors  through these plans.  If the shares for the RSP and stock options
are issued from our authorized but unissued stock,  your voting  interests 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 Carnegie Savings
Bank -- Proposed Future Stock Benefit Plans," and "-- Restricted Stock Plan."

Restrictions on Repurchase of Shares

         Generally,  during the first year following the conversion, CFC may not
repurchase its shares.  During each of the second and third years  following the
conversion,  CFC may repurchase up to 5% of its outstanding shares. During those
periods, if we decide that additional repurchases would be an appropriate 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 Shares."

Possible Year 2000 Computer Program Problems

         A great  deal of  information  has been  disseminated  about the global
computer crash that may occur in the year 2000. Many computer  programs that can
only distinguish the final two digits of the year entered (a common  programming
practice in earlier years) are expected to read entries for the year 2000 as the
year 1900 and compute payment,  interest or delinquency  based on the wrong date
or are expected to be unable to compute payment, interest or delinquency.  Rapid
and accurate data processing is essential to our operations.  Data processing is
also essential to most other financial institutions and many other companies.

         Most of our  material  data  processing  that could be affected by this
problem is provided  by a third party  service  bureau.  Our service  bureau has
advised us that it expects to resolve  this  potential  problem  before the year
2000.  However,  if this potential problem is not resolved before the year 2000,
we would likely  experience  significant  data  processing  delays,  mistakes or
failures.  These delays,  mistakes or failures could have a significant  adverse
impact  on  our  financial   condition  and  our  results  of  operations.   See
"Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of Financial  Condition  and Results of
Operations - Results of Operations - Noninterest Expense."

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
us to adopt a  commercial  bank  charter.  If we become a commercial  bank,  our
investment authority and the ability of CFC to engage in diversified  activities
may be limited,  which could adversely affect our value and  profitability.  See
"Regulation."

                  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  180,000  shares  (the
midpoint of the estimated  valuation  range,  "EVR") of the common stock will be
sold at $10.00 per share and that sufficient shares will be available to satisfy
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
conversion.

(1) Does not include shares  purchased by the employee stock ownership plan (the
"ESOP").

                                 USE OF PROCEEDS

   
         Carnegie  Financial  Corporation will use up to 50% of the net proceeds
from the  offering  (or such  additional  amounts as is  necessary  to  increase
Carnegie  Savings  Bank's  capital  ratio to 10%) to purchase all of the capital
stock we will  issue  in  connection  with the  conversion.  See  footnote  1 to
"Historical and Pro Forma Capital  Compliance." A portion of the net proceeds to
be retained by Carnegie  Financial  Corporation  will be loaned to our  employee
stock plan to fund its purchase of 8% of the shares sold in the conversion. On a
short-term basis, the balance of the net proceeds retained by Carnegie Financial
Corporation initially will be invested in short-term investments. Although there
are no  current  plans,  the  net  proceeds  subsequently  may be  used  to fund
acquisitions  of other  financial  services  institutions  or to diversify  into
non-banking 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 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 CFC 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 or
(iv) funding loan  commitments.  However,  initially we intend to invest the net
proceeds in short-term  investments until we can deploy the proceeds into higher
yielding  assets.  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 significantly more or less than those estimated.  We estimate our expenses to
be approximately $260,000. Our

                                        4

<PAGE>



estimated  net  proceeds  will range from  $1,270,000  to  $1,810,000  (or up to
$2,121,000  in the  event  the  maximum  of the  estimated  valuation  range  is
increased to $2,380,500).  See "Pro Forma Data." The net proceeds will also vary
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 for use in purchasing stock.

                                    DIVIDENDS

         Upon  conversion,  CFC's board of directors  will have the authority to
declare   dividends  on  the  shares,   subject  to  statutory  and   regulatory
requirements.  CFC does not expect to pay cash  dividends  during the first year
after the  conversion.  Any future  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 CFC 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.  For a  period  of one  year
following the completion of the  conversion,  we will not 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 Carnegie  Savings
Bank --  Liquidation  Account" and  "Regulation  -- Dividend  and Other  Capital
Distribution Limitations."

         CFC 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.  CFC 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 CFC,  after
the dividend has been  distributed,  to pay its debts in the ordinary  course of
business.

                           MARKET FOR THE COMMON STOCK

         As a newly organized  company,  CFC 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. Capital Resources,  Inc. 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,  Capital
Resources,  Inc.  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 December 31, 1997, our historical
capitalization and the consolidated capitalization of CFC after giving effect to
the  conversion and the other  assumptions  set forth below and under "Pro Forma
Data," based upon the sale of shares at the minimum, midpoint,  maximum, and 15%
above the maximum of the EVR at a price of $10.00 per share:

(1)  Excludes  accrued  interest  payable on deposits.  Withdrawals from savings
     accounts  for the  purchase  of  stock  have not  been  reflected  in these
     adjustments.  Any withdrawals will reduce pro forma  capitalization  by the
     amount of such withdrawals.
(2)  Does not reflect the increase in the number of shares of common stock after
     the conversion in the event of  implementation  of the Stock Option Plan or
     RSP. See  "Management  of Carnegie  Savings  Bank -- Proposed  Future Stock
     Benefit Plans -- Stock Option Plan" and "-- Restricted Stock Plan."
(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 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 CFC 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' voting interests by
     4.31%. There can be no assurance that stockholder  approval of the RSP will
     be obtained.  See  "Management of Carnegie  Savings Bank -- Proposed Future
     Stock Benefit Plans -- Restricted Stock Plan."
(4)  Our equity  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 Carnegie  Savings Bank -- Liquidation  Account"
     and Note 13 to the Financial Statements.

                                 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  $1,270,000 and $1,810,000 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; (ii) Capital  Resources,  Inc. will have
received   advisory  and  marketing  fees   (including   legal  fees  and  other
reimbursable  expenses)  of  $80,000;  (iii) no shares  will be sold in a public
offering; (iv) other conversion expenses,  excluding the fees and other expenses
paid to Capital Resources, Inc., will be $180,000; and (v) 4% of the shares will
be sold to the RSP.  Because  management  of  Carnegie  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 CFC following the conversion. Unaudited pro
forma  consolidated net earnings and  stockholders'  equity have been calculated
for the year ended December 31, 1997, as if the common stock to be issued in the
conversion  had been sold at January 1, 1997, and the estimated net proceeds had
been  invested at 5.55%,  which was  approximately  equal to the  one-year  U.S.
Treasury bill rate at December 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,  a combined
effective  state and  federal  income tax rate of 37% has been  assumed  for the
respective periods,  resulting in an after tax yield of 3.50% for the year ended
December 31, 1997.  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 153,000 shares (minimum of EVR),  180,000 shares (midpoint
of  EVR),  207,000  shares  (maximum  of EVR) or  238,050  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 CFC 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 CFC 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 Carnegie  Savings Bank --
Liquidation  Account"  and Note 13 to the  financial  statements.  The pro forma
income  derived from the  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 CFC. 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. Interest
     income  earned by us on the ESOP debt offsets the interest paid by Carnegie
     Savings Bank on the ESOP loan.  Therefore,  only the principal  payments on
     the ESOP debt are  recorded as a  tax-effected  expense.  The pro forma net
     income  assumes:  (i) that  1,224,  1,440,  1,656 and  1,904  shares at the
     minimum,  midpoint,  maximum and  maximum,  as  adjusted  of the EVR,  were
     committed to be released  during the twelve months  December 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 37% for such periods
     based upon a combined  federal and state tax rate;  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 CFC 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 December
     31,  1997.  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 year ended
     December 31, 1997,  earnings  per share would have been  $(0.21),  $(0.14),
     $(0.09) and $(0.06), based on the sale of shares at the minimum,  midpoint,
     maximum and the  maximum,  as  adjusted,  of the EVR.  See  "Management  of
     Carnegie Savings Bank -- Other Benefits -- Employee Stock Ownership Plan."

   
(2)  Assumes issuance to the RSP of 6,120, 7,200, 8,280, and 9,522 shares at the
     minimum,  midpoint,  maximum,  and  maximum,  as adjusted  of the EVR.  The
     assumption in the pro forma  calculation  is that (i) shares were purchased
     by CFC following  the  conversion,  (ii) the purchase  price for the shares
     purchased by the RSP was equal to the purchase price of $10 per share (iii)
     20% of the amount  contributed was an amortized expense during such period,
     and (iv) the  effective  tax rate  was 37% for such  periods  based  upon a
     combined  federal and state tax rate. 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 January
     1, 1997,  to be newly issued  shares  purchased  from CFC 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
     $14.19,  $13.32, $12.68, and $12.14, and pro forma earnings per share would
     have been $(0.20),  $(0.13),  $(0.08),  and $(0.05). As a result of the RSP
     from newly issued shares,  stockholders'  voting interests could be diluted
     by up to  approximately  ^ 3.9%.  The pro forma data  assumes the  required
     regulatory and stockholder  approvals.  See "Management of Carnegie Savings
     Bank -- Proposed Future Stock Benefit Plans --Restricted Stock Plan."
    

(3)  Assumes that following the  consummation of the conversion,  CFC will adopt
     the Stock 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 CFC stockholders to be held no earlier than six months after the
     conversion.  Under the Stock 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 Stock Option Plan were newly issued rather than  purchased
     in the open market, the voting 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 Stock Option
     Plan were newly issued at the beginning of the  respective  periods and the
     exercise  price for the stock  option  shares  were  equal to the  Purchase
     Price, the number of outstanding shares would increase to 157,284, 185,040,
     212,796 and 244,715, respectively, pro forma stockholders'

                                        9

<PAGE>



         equity per share would have been $14.32,  $13.51,  $12.90,  and $12.39,
         and pro forma  earnings per share for the year ended  December 31, 1997
         would have been $(0.20), $(0.14), $(0.09), and $(0.06).

   
(4)  Consolidated  stockholders'  equity  represents  the excess of the carrying
     value of the assets 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, 11,016, 12,960, 14,904, and 17,140 shares have been subtracted
     from the shares assumed to be sold at the minimum,  midpoint,  maximum, and
     maximum,  as adjusted,  of the EVR,  respectively,  and  141,984,  167,040,
     192,096,  and 220,910  shares are assumed to be outstanding at the minimum,
     midpoint, maximum, and maximum, as adjusted of the EVR. See Note 1 above.

     that would  result  from an assumed 8% purchase by the ESOP and 4% purchase
     by the RSP as of December 31, 1997.  It is assumed that CFC will ^ purchase
     all of the capital  stock of  Carnegie  Savings  Bank in  exchange  for the
     amount necessary to increase ^ Carnegie Savings Bank's tangible  regulatory

                                 THE CONVERSION

         Our board of directors and the OTS have approved the Plan of Conversion
("Plan" or "Plan of Conversion")  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  December  15,  1997,  our  board  of  directors  adopted  a Plan of
Conversion  which  provides for the  conversion of Carnegie  Savings Bank from a
Pennsylvania  mutual  savings bank into a Federal  mutual  savings bank and then
into a Federal  capital stock savings bank and become a wholly owned  subsidiary
of CFC. 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 CFC and the common stock of
CFC 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  CFC'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, CFC plans to retain up to 50% of the
net  proceeds  from  the  sale of  shares  of our  common  stock  and to use the
remaining  proceeds  to  purchase  all of the common  stock we will issue in the
conversion. 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 and any shares  remaining after the community  offering
may be offered in a public offering.  The community offering or public offering,
if any, may commence anytime  subsequent to the commencement of the subscription
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  or public  offering.  See "--  Community  Offering,"  "-- 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 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  estimated
market valuation would not  substantially  change during any such extension.  If
the valuation of the shares must be amended, no assurance can be given that such
amended valuation would be approved by the OTS.  Therefore,  it is possible that
if the conversion 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 and by the OTS.


                                       12

<PAGE>



         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 Carnegie
Savings Bank

         Voting Rights. Currently in our mutual form, our depositors have voting
rights and may vote for the election of directors. Following the conversion, all
voting  rights  will be held  solely  by  stockholders.  A  stockholder  will be
entitled to one vote for each share of common stock owned.

         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 CFC for our
stock,  and no gain or loss will be  recognized by CFC 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 as of the date of  conversion;  and (xi) 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 FinPro
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

                                       13

<PAGE>



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  community   offering,   public  or  syndicated  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 FinPro  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.  If  the  subscription  rights  are  deemed  to  have  an
ascertainable value, eligible account holders, supplemental account holders, and
other  members may be deemed to have taxable  income based upon the value of the
subscription rights.
    

         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.

         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, November 30, 1996. Each Supplemental  Eligible Account Holder would have a
similar  interest as of the qualifying  date, March 31, 1998. 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 (December 31)
is less than the amount in such account on the respective

                                       14

<PAGE>



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 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

         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
intend to pursue any and all legal and equitable remedies in the event we become
aware of the transfer of subscription  rights and we will not honor orders known
by us to involve the transfer of such rights.  In addition,  persons who violate
the purchase  limitations  may be subject to sanctions and penalties  imposed by
the OTS.

         Subscription  Priorities.   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 or public  offering,  if any, 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 November  30,
1996.  Each Eligible  Account Holder (or persons  through a single account) 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 5,000
shares  ($50,000),  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 the exercise of subscription rights
in this category 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 Carnegie Savings

                                       15

<PAGE>



Bank  in  the  one-year  period  preceding  the  Eligibility  Record  Date,  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  results in the  issuance of shares above the maximum of
the EVR (i.e.,  more than 207,000  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 March 31, 1998. Each Supplemental  Eligible Account Holder who is not
an Eligible  Account Holder (or persons  through a single  account) will receive
non-transferable  subscription rights to purchase that number of shares which is
equal to the greater of 5,000 shares ($50,000), 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  exercise  of  subscription  rights  in this
category  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. 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.  See "--  Limitations  on
Purchases and Transfer of 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. 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 5,000 shares  ($50,000)  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 or the  remaining  shares  have been
allocated. See "-- Limitations on Purchases and Transfer of Shares."

         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

                                       16

<PAGE>



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.

         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.
(noon), Eastern Time, on __________ ___, 1998,  (Expiration Date).  Subscription
rights will become void if not exercised prior to the Expiration Date.

Community Offering

         To  the  extent  that  shares  remain   available  for  purchase  after
satisfaction of all  subscriptions of Eligible Account Holders,  Employee Plans,
Supplemental  Eligible Account Holders and Other Members, we may offer shares to
certain  members of the general  public  with a  preference  to natural  persons
residing  in  Allegheny  County,  Pennsylvania,  under terms and  conditions  as
established  by the Board of  Directors.  The community  offering,  if any, will
commence subsequent to the commencement of the subscription  offering. No person
in the  community  offering,  may purchase  more than 5,000 shares or $50,000 of
common  stock.  The right of any  person or  entity  to  purchase  shares in the
community  offering  is  subject to our right to accept or reject  purchases  in
whole  or in part  either  at the time of  receipt  of an  order,  or as soon as
practicable following the completion of the community offering.

         Persons  and   entities  not   purchasing   the  common  stock  in  the
subscription  offering may purchase  common stock in the  community  offering by
returning  to us a completed  and properly  executed  order form along with full
payment.

         If all of the common  stock  offered in the  subscription  offering  is
subscribed  for, no common stock will be available for purchase in the community
offering.  In the event an  insufficient  number of shares are available to fill
orders in the community  offering,  the available shares will be allocated among
persons  submitting  orders on an  equitable  basis  determined  by the Board of
Directors,  provided that a preference will be given to natural persons residing
in Allegheny County,  Pennsylvania.  If the community offering extends beyond 45
days  following the completion of the  subscription  offering  (__________  ___,
1998) and such extension is approved by the regulatory authorities,  subscribers
will have the right to modify,  confirm,  decrease or rescind  subscriptions for
stock previously submitted.  All sales of common stock in the community offering
will be at the same price as in the subscription offering.

         We will place cash and checks submitted in the community  offering in a
segregated account.  Interest will be paid on orders made by check or in cash at
the passbook  savings  account rate from the date the payment is received  until
the  completion  or  termination  of the  conversion.  In  the  event  that  the
conversion is not completed for any reason,  all funds submitted pursuant to the
community offering will be promptly refunded with interest.


                                       17

Public Offering

         All shares of common stock not purchased in the  subscription  offering
and community offering, if any, may be offered for sale to the general public in
a public offering  through selected  broker-dealers  to be formed and managed by
Capital  Resources,  Inc..  The public  offering,  if any,  will be conducted to
achieve the widest  distribution  of common stock subject to our right to reject
orders in whole or in part. Neither Capital  Resources,  Inc. nor any registered
broker-dealer  shall have any  obligation  to take or purchase any shares of the
common  stock in the public or  syndicated  public  offering.  Stock sold in the
public or syndicated public offering will be sold at the same price as all other
shares.

         No person, may purchase more than 5,000 shares or $50,000 in the public
offering.  In the event that  selected  dealer  agreements  are entered  into in
connection with a public  offering,  we will pay commissions to selected dealers
(which may include Capital  Resources,  Inc.) of no more than ______% for shares
sold by the selected dealer.

         The public  offering will  terminate no more than 45 days following the
subscription  offering (__________ ___, 1998), unless extended with the approval
of the OTS.

Ordering and Receiving Shares

         Use of Order Forms. Rights to subscribe in the subscription offering or
purchase  stock in the  community  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  or  modified
without our consent.

         In the event an order form (i) is not  delivered  by the United  States
Postal Service,  (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 your 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 may 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  in  the
subscription  offering may be made (i) in cash, if delivered in person,  (ii) by
check or money order payable to us, or (iii) by authorization of withdrawal from
savings accounts (including  certificates of deposit) maintained with us. Orders
of $25,000
    

                                       18

<PAGE>



   
or more must be paid by Carnegie  Savings  Bank account  withdrawals,  certified
funds,  cashier's  check  or  money  order.  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 modify or cancel their
order. In the event that the conversion is not consummated,  all funds submitted
pursuant to the offering will be refunded promptly with interest.
    

         Individual  Retirement  Accounts  ("IRAs")  maintained  with  us do not
permit investment in common stock. If you are interested in using your IRA funds
to purchase our common stock, you must do so through a self-directed  IRA. Since
we do not offer such  accounts,  we will allow you to make a  trustee-to-trustee
transfer of the IRA funds to a trustee offering a self-directed IRA program with
the  agreement  that such funds will be used to purchase our common stock in the
offering.  There will be no early withdrawal or IRS interest  penalties for such
transfers.  The new trustee would hold your stock in a self-directed  account in
the same manner as we now hold your IRA funds. An annual  administrative fee may
be payable to the new trustee.  If you are interested in using your IRA funds to
purchase  our common  stock,  you  should  contact  our Stock  Center as soon as
practicable  so that the  necessary  forms may be forwarded  for  execution  and
returned prior to the Expiration Date.

         The ESOP may subscribe  for shares by  submitting  its order form along
with evidence of a loan commitment from another financial institution or CFC 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  subscription  offering  have  been  distributed  to
persons with  subscriptions  rights by mail.  Additional copies are available at
our stock information  center. 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 in the
subscription  offering  and if  applicable,  the  community  offering,  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

     Capital  Resources,  Inc. has been engaged as our  consultant and financial
advisor in connection with the offering.  Capital Resources,  Inc. has agreed to
exercise  its best  efforts to assist us to solicit  subscriptions  and purchase
orders for shares in the  offering.  However,  Capital  Resources,  Inc.  is not
obligated  to take or  purchase  any  shares  of common  stock in the  offering.
Capital   Resources,   Inc.  will  receive   $60,000  plus   reimbursement   for
out-of-pocket and legal expenses not to exceed $20,000. In the event that common
stock is offered  through a public  offering,  we will pay an additional  fee to
such selected dealers (which may include Capital Resources,  Inc.) of up to 4.0%
of the aggregate  amount of stock sold in connection  with the public  offering.
Also, we have agreed to indemnify Capital  Resources,  Inc. for reasonable costs
and expenses in connection  with certain  claims or  liabilities  which might be
asserted  against  Capital  Resources,  Inc.  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  between  Capital  Resources,  Inc.  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  Center  located at our
office. The Stock Center is expected to operate during our normal business hours
throughout  the  offering.  A  registered  representative  employed  by  Capital
Resources,  Inc. will be available at the Stock Center. Capital Resources,  Inc.
will assist us in  responding  to questions  regarding  the  conversion  and the
offering and processing order forms.

Stock Pricing

         Federal  Regulations  promulgated  by OTS  require  that  a  converting
savings  association  issue and sell its capital stock at a total price equal to
the  estimated  pro forma  market value of such stock in the  converted  savings
association,  based on an independent valuation. These regulations require us to
retain an appraiser who is independent of us, experienced and expert in the area
of corporate  appraisal and acceptable to OTS. FinPro,  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. The term "independent appraiser" is defined by
the federal regulations, and FinPro was required to submit information to OTS to
establish its independence in conformity with those regulations.  OTS has issued
Guidelines to appraisers in connection with the appraisal of converting  savings
institutions  which describe the  methodology  that OTS expects the appraiser to
utilize.  OTS reviews the appraisal and any appraisal  update submitted to them,
and the methodology  employed therein. If OTS indicates that it does not approve
of the appraisal or appraisal update, this will necessitate a converting savings
association  such as us to adjust the appraisal or appraisal  updates.  Although
OTS has not objected to the appraisal of us in connection  with the  conversion,
the final  appraisal  might  change and we might be required to sell  additional
stock to  consummate  the  conversion.  There also can be no assurance  that the
common  stock  will  exhibit  the  post-conversion  price and  trading  patterns
experienced by other  converting  mutual  association,  or that the common stock
will sell in the aftermarket at $10.00 per share or in the aggregate at or above
the estimated pro forma market value.

         FinPro will receive a fee of $23,500 for  preparing  the  appraisal and
its assistance in connection with the preparation of a business plan and will be
reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses up to $4,000. We have agreed to
indemnify FinPro 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 FinPro.


                                       20

         The appraisal  was prepared by FinPro 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
Commonwealth   of   Pennsylvania   which  affect  the   operations   of  savings
institutions,  and stock market values of certain savings institutions and stock
market conditions for publicly traded savings  institutions and savings and loan
holding companies. In addition, FinPro 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, FinPro has determined,  in its opinion, that
as of March  12,  1998 our  estimated  aggregate  pro  forma  market  value  was
$1,800,000.  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,
FinPro has  established a range of value from  $1,530,000 to $2,070,000  for the
offering,  the EVR. Upon the  completion of the Offering,  FinPro,  after taking
into account factors similar to those involved in its prior appraisal as well as
the results of the Offering, will determine its estimate of the pro forma market
value as of the close of the Offering based on  information  available to FinPro
at that time. This may result in an increase or decrease in the EVR. An increase
or  decrease  in the EVR will  result in a change in the  number of shares to be
issued in the  Conversion.  See "Changes in Number of Shares to be Issued in the
Conversion."

         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.  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  FinPro must  confirm to the OTS
that,  to the best of FinPro's  knowledge  and  judgment,  nothing of a material
nature has occurred which would cause FinPro to conclude that the Purchase Price
on an aggregate basis was incompatible  with FinPro'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,  FinPro has
relied  upon  and  assumed  the  accuracy  and  completeness  of  financial  and
statistical  information provided by us. FinPro did not independently verify the
financial  statements and other information provided by us, nor did FinPro 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. Copies of the appraisal report of FinPro setting forth the
method  and  assumptions  for  such  appraisal  are on file  and  available  for
inspection  at the main  office  of  Carnegie  Savings  Bank and as set forth in
"Where You can Find Additional  Information."  Any subsequent  updated appraisal
report of FinPro also will be available for inspection.

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

                                       21

<PAGE>



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.  For a
presentation of the possible effects of an increase or decrease in the number of
shares to be issued, see "Pro Forma Data".

         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  $1,530,000  or more than
$2,380,500.  If the  offering  is  either  less  than  $1,530,000  or more  than
$2,380,500,  only persons who  subscribed for shares will have an opportunity to
modify or cancel their orders.  We will resolicit such persons by providing them
an updated  prospectus or supplement (and filing a  post-effective  amendment to
this  offering).  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 in the subscription  offering,  and
if applicable,  the community  offering or public offering,  is 5,000 shares. In
addition, no person or persons ordering through a single account,  together with
their  associates,  or group of persons  acting  together,  may  purchase in all
categories of the  conversion  more than 7,500  shares,  except for the Employee
Plans  which may  purchase  up to 8% of the  shares  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. For purposes of the 35% limitation, purchases
by the ESOP will not be included.  Pursuant to the Plan,  the board of directors
has the  authority  to determine  whether  persons are  associates  or acting in
concert.

         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 or syndicated 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

                                       22

<PAGE>



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.

         Persons must certify on their order form 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.

Restrictions on Repurchase of Shares

         Generally,  during the first year following the conversion, CFC may not
repurchase  its shares and during each of the second and third  years  following
the  conversion,  CFC 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 CFC and affiliated  purchasers.  If, in the future, the rules and
regulations  regarding the repurchase of stock are liberalized,  CFC 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 CFC 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, the material terms of which are set forth herein. The Plan
is attached to the proxy statement mailed to certain  depositors.  Copies of the
Plan are  available  from us and 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 Financial Statements and Notes to the Financial Statements elsewhere in
this document.

General

   
         CFC has  recently  been  formed  and,  accordingly,  has no  results of
operations.  The following  discussion  relates only to Carnegie  Savings Bank's
financial  condition  and results of  operations.  Please refer to our Pro Forma
Data  discussion  beginning  on page ^ 7 to see  the  potential  effects  of the
offering on our financial statements.
    

         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
(our interest rate spread),  and (ii) the relative  amounts of  interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities,  consisting of deposits. 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  costs. 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.

Recent Business Strategy

         To the extent new deposits have exceeded our loan originations, we have
invested  these  deposits  primarily in  marketable  securities so that they are
available to fund new loans in our market area.  As discussed  herein,  this has
reduced our  interest  rate risk,  but has  adversely  affected our net interest
income.  Since the new  deposits  and stock  proceeds are expected to exceed our
ability  to  originate  loans  in  our  market  area,  we  may  purchase  loans,
mortgage-backed  securities and other  investments  with higher yields that will
improve our interest income and net income.

Market Risk Analysis

         Asset/Liability  Management.  Our assets and  liabilities  are interest
rate  sensitive.  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 do not engage in, or intend to engage in, trading  activities
or use derivative instruments to control our interest rate risk.

         We emphasize  origination of fixed rate real estate loans in the nature
of  one-  to-  four-family  loans.  These  loans  approximated  85% of our  loan
portfolio at December 31, 1997. At December 31, 1997, the average  weighted term
to maturity of our mortgage  loan  portfolio was slightly more than 21 years and
the average  weighted term to maturity of our deposits was slightly more than 21
months.  See "Risk Factors-  Insufficient Loan Demand" and "Business of Carnegie
Savings Bank -- Lending Activities."

         Net  Portfolio  Value.  In  recent  years,  we had been a  Pennsylvania
chartered  mutual  savings bank  regulated  by the  Pennsylvania  Department  of
Banking,  and  therefore  had not been  required  to measure our  interest  rate
sensitivity in the manner  required by the OTS. We now compute  amounts by which
the net present  value of expected cash flows 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 our NPV from instantaneous and permanent 1% to 3% (100 to
300 basis points) increases and decreases in market interest rates.

         The following table presents our NPV based upon calculations of FinPro,
Inc.  These  calculations  were based upon  assumptions  FinPro  believes  to be
fundamentally  sound,  although they may vary from assumptions utilized by other
data providers.  These  assumptions  relate to interest  rates,  loan prepayment
rates, core deposit duration,  and the market values of certain assets under the
various  interest rate scenarios.  During the  preparation of the  calculations,
FinPro relied on and assumed the accuracy and  completeness of the data provided
by  us  and  other  sources  which  FinPro  deemed  reliable.   FinPro  did  not
independently verify the data provided to it by us.

(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.

   
         Management believes these calculations indicate that we would be deemed
to have a greater  than  normal  level of  interest  rate risk under  applicable
regulatory  capital  requirements.  However,  due to our net size and risk-based
capital  level,  we are  exempt  from the  interest  rate  risk  component.  See
"Regulation  -  -  Savings   Institution   Regulation   --  Regulatory   Capital
Requirements."
    

         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

                                       27

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.

         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

         Our total assets increased $1.6 million, or 10.60%, to $16.7 million at
December  31, 1997 from $15.1  million at December  31,  1996.  Our  increase in
assets was primarily  attributable  to increases of $615,000 in  mortgage-backed
securities, $380,000 in investment securities, $313,000 in real estate owned and
$294,000 in cash and cash equivalents.  These increases were partially offset by
a $227,000 decrease in net loans receivable.

         The  increases  in  mortgage-backed  securities  and  other  investment
securities  were the result of a temporary  decrease in loan  applications.  The
changes  in real  estate  owned  resulted  from the sale in  April,  1997,  of a
foreclosed property,  and the purchase in December,  of a different property, in
order to protect our interests as junior lienholder in a foreclosure.

         Our  liabilities  also  increased  by $1.6  million.  The  increase was
primarily  due to  increases  of $1.8  million in deposits and $158,000 in other
liabilities.  These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $300,000 in
a line of credit from another financial  institution.  Deposits  increased via a
special  certificate  of deposit  promotion.  Part of the proceeds  were used to
repay the advance on the line of credit of $300,000.

Results of Operations

         Our net income  decreased  $153,000  to a net loss of $54,000  for 1997
compared  to net  income  of  $99,000  for  1996.  Our  decrease  was  primarily
attributable  to the $29,000  increase in net interest  income being offset by a
$71,000  increase in our provision  for loan losses.  Further,  our  noninterest
income decreased by $12,000 and our noninterest  expenses increased by $190,000.
For 1997,  we had a net loss before  income  taxes of  $108,000  compared to net
income before  income taxes of $135,000 for 1996. As a result,  we had an income
tax  benefit of $54,000  for 1997  compared to income tax expense of $35,000 for
1996.

         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. 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  table sets forth  certain  information  relating to our
average  balance sheet and reflects the average yield on assets and average cost
of liabilities for the periods indicated and the average yields earned and rates
paid.  Such yields and cost are  derived by  dividing  income or expenses by the
average  balance  of  assets  of  liabilities,  respectively,  for  the  periods
presented. Average balances are derived from month-end balances. Management does
not believe that the use of  month-end  balances  instead of daily  balances has
caused any material differences in the information presented.

         ^ Our net interest income  increased  $29,000 in 1997 compared to 1996.
The  increase of $2.1  million in the average  balances of our  interest-earning
assets more than offset the decrease of 19 basis points in their average  yield.
As a result, our interest income increased  $148,000.  This was primarily due to
an increase of $1.2 million in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities
coupled  with  an  increase  of  49  basis  points  in  the  average   yield  on
mortgage-backed securities and an increase of $400,000 in the average balance of
investment securities coupled with an increase of 62 basis points in the average
yield on investment securities.
    

         The   increase  of  $1.8   million  in  the  average   balance  of  our
interest-bearing  liabilities was coupled with an increase of 28 basis points in
the  average  rate of  interest  we  paid on  those  liabilities.  This  was due
primarily  to an  increase  of  $1.8  million  in the  average  balances  of our
certificates  of deposit and an increase of 33 basis  points in the average rate
we paid on our certificates of deposit.  Certificates of deposit  increased as a
result of a special promotion, at a rate slightly above market.

   
         Provision  for Loan Losses.  Our  provision  for loan losses  increased
$71,000 to $73,000 for the year ended  December 31, 1997 from $2,000 in the same
period in 1996.  Prior to 1997, in order to evaluate the risks  associated  with
our loan  portfolio and the overall  quality of our loan  portfolio,  management
reviewed all loans on a collective basis.  During 1997,  management  reevaluated
its loan review  process by measuring  the risks and the overall  quality of our
loan  portfolio on an individual  loan basis.  As a result of this process,  the
local  economic  trends,  and the portfolio  mix,  management  determined it was
necessary to increase ^ the allowance  for loan ^ loss to an  acceptable  level.
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  Income.  Our noninterest  income  decreased by $12,000 for
1997 compared to 1996.  The $13,000  increase in service  charges and fee income
was more than  offset by a decrease  of  $21,000  in net  income on real  estate
owned.  We had a net loss on real estate owned of $8,000 in 1997 compared to net
income of $14,000 in 1996 due to high maintenance  costs in the first quarter of
1997 and due to the costs  incurred in connection  with the sale of the property
in April 1997.

   
         Noninterest  Expense.  Our noninterest expense increased by $190,000 in
1997.  The  increase  was  primarily  attributable  to a  $193,000  increase  in
compensation  expenses.  The increased compensation expenses include $36,000 and
$123,000 for accrued  expenses related to the  implementation  of a supplemental
executive  retirement  plan and a directors  consultation  and retirement  plan,
respectively, which were implemented in 1997. ^
    

         As a result of the  conversion,  our  noninterest  expense  might  also
increase because of the costs associated with our employee stock ownership plan,
restricted  stock ownership  plan, if  implemented,  and the costs of becoming a
public company.

         A great  deal of  information  has been  disseminated  about the global
computer year 2000. Many computer  programs that can only  distinguish the final
two digits of the year entered (a common programming  practice in earlier years)
are  expected  to read  entries  for the year 2000 as the year 1900 and  compute
payment,  interest or delinquency  based on the wrong date or are expected to be
unable to compute  payment,  interest or  delinquency.  Rapid and accurate  data
processing is essential to our operation.  Data  processing is also essential to
most other financial institutions and many other companies. Most of our material
data  processing  that could be affected by this  problem is provided by a third
party  service  bureau.  Our  service  bureau has  advised us that it expects to
resolve this potential problem before the year 2000. However,

                                       31

<PAGE>



if our service  bureau is unable to resolve this  potential  problem in time, we
would  likely  experience  significant  data  processing  delays,   mistakes  or
failures.  These delays,  mistakes or failures could have a significant  adverse
impact on our financial condition and results of operation.

         Income Tax Expense  (Benefit).  Our income taxes decreased $90,000 to a
tax  benefit of $54,000 in 1997  compared to an income tax expense of $35,000 in
1996, due to a net loss on our operations in 1997.

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 minimum ratio currently is 4.0%
and our regulatory liquidity ratio was 8.90%, 11.74%, and 16.80% at December 31,
1997, December 31, 1996, and December 31, 1995, respectively.

         Our  primary  sources  of funds are  deposits,  repayment  of loans and
mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investments, interest-bearing deposits
with other banks and funds provided from operations.  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 liquid resources  principally to fund loan commitments,
maturing  certificates of deposit and demand deposit  withdrawals,  to invest in
other interest-earning assets, and to meet operating expenses.

         Net  cash  used for 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 1997 was
$73,000 compared to net cash provided by our operations of $175,000 for 1996.

         Net cash  used for our  investing  activities  (i.e.,  cash  disbursed,
primarily for investment  securities and mortgage-backed  securities  portfolios
and our loan  portfolio)  totaled  $1.1  million  for 1997,  a decrease  of $1.2
million from 1996.

         Net cash provided by our financing activities (i.e., cash receipts from
our net  increases  in deposits)  totaled $1.5 million in 1997  compared to $1.3
million in 1996.


                   BUSINESS OF CARNEGIE FINANCIAL CORPORATION

         CFC is not an operating  company and has not engaged in any significant
business  to date.  It was formed in February  1998 as a  Pennsylvania-chartered
corporation  to be the holding  company for Carnegie  Savings Bank.  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 CFC will own only one  savings  bank,  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.
CFC 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 CFC is  located  at 17 West Mall  Plaza,  Carnegie,
Pennsylvania. The telephone number is (412) 276-1266.

                        BUSINESS OF CARNEGIE SAVINGS BANK

         The  principal  sources of funds for our  activities  are  deposits and
payments  on loans and  investments.  Our  deposits  totalled  $15.2  million at
December 31, 1997. Funds are used primarily for the origination of loans secured
by mortgages on one- to  four-family  residences and home equity loans which are
located in our market area,  consumer loans and the purchase of  mortgage-backed
and investment securities.  Residential real estate loans totalled $8.2 million,
or 84.90%,  of our total loans  receivable  portfolio at December 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 office is located in Carnegie,  a suburb  southwest of  Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania. Our primary market area is within Allegheny County and consists of
the Borough of Carnegie and the surrounding municipalities. Most of our deposits
and lending  activity is generated from  individuals who live in these areas. We
are a community-oriented institution and have served the Carnegie area community
since 1915.

         Carnegie is a middle  income  community  having a large  proportion  of
senior  citizens.  It is presently  enjoying a period of  revitalization,  which
plans having been approved for a 60-unit townhouse project, and plans proceeding
to open the mall area to  vehicular  traffic.  The Port  Authority  of Allegheny
County is  presently  constructing  a busway  from  downtown  Pittsburgh  to the
Pittsburgh  International Airport, with Carnegie slated to be a parking site for
those  who will use the  busway.  A  multi-floor  municipal  parking  garage  is
planned, with retail  establishments slated for the ground floor.  Economically,
the town appears to be improving,  and Borough  officials  are quite  optimistic
about the town's future.

         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.  The largest  employers in
Pittsburgh,  by the  number  of  local  employees,  include  the  United  States
Government,   the  Commonwealth  of  Pennsylvania,   USAirways,   University  of
Pittsburgh Medical Center, and the University of Pittsburgh.  Seven colleges and
universities are located in the greater Pittsburgh area.

Lending Activities

         The  Bank  makes  mortgage  loans,  both  residential  and  commercial,
construction loans, home improvement loans, equity lines of credit, consumer and
savings  account loans.  The lines of credit are  adjustable  rate (based on the
Wall Street Journal prime). Some mortgages are adjustable (based on the one-year
T-bill).  Savings  account  loans  adjust  with the rate paid on the  underlying
collateral.  Recent market conditions have made borrowers  reluctant to agree to
ARMs.

         Real  Estate  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 95% 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%.  Generally,  the
maximum  loan-to-value  ratio on mortgage  loans  secured by non-owner  occupied
properties  and  commercial  buildings  is limited to 70%.  We retain all of our
mortgage loans and originate these loans with maturities of up to 30 years.

         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.

         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 15

                                       35

years.  The  loans  are  generally  subject  to  a  80%  combined  loan-to-value
limitation, including any other outstanding mortgages or liens.

         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.

         Consumer  Loans.  We offer  consumer  loans in order to provide a wider
range of financial  services to our customers.  Consumer loans totaled $870,000,
or 8.97% of our total loans at December 31, 1997.  Our consumer loans consist of
share loans,  automobile  loans, and unsecured loans. We make unsecured loans to
certain creditworthy borrowers. Loans secured by vehicles are financed for terms
up to 60 months. Loans secured by deposits of the bank are granted in amounts up
to 95% of the deposited amount.

         Consumer loans may entail greater risk than residential mortgage loans,
particularly  in the case of  consumer  loans that are  unsecured  or secured by
assets that depreciate rapidly.  Repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer
loan may not be  sufficient  for  repayment  of the  outstanding  loan,  and the
remaining deficiency may not be collectible.

         Loan Approval Authority and Underwriting.  We establish various lending
limits for our officers and maintain a loan committee consisting of the board of
directors.  The president and loan officer have authority to approve home equity
loans up to $35,000 and $20,000,  respectively,  and the Officer Loan  Committee
has the authority to approve  unsecured  consumer  loans up to $5,000.  The loan
committee ratifies all residential  mortgage loans and all other real estate 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  under  $50,000,  but we obtain a  property  report,  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 45 days of the date of issuance.  At December 31, 1997, there
were no outstanding commitments to cover originations of mortgage loans.

         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. Our maximum loan-to-one borrower limit has been $500,000.
At December  31, 1997,  our five largest  borrowers  had  aggregate  outstanding
balances of between $294,000 and $495,000. These loans are performing loans.

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 such payment is not received by
month end, an additional notice of nonpayment is sent to the borrower.  After 60
days, if 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.

         Loans are reviewed 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 impaired loans within the meaning of SFAS 114, as amended by SFAS
118.  Interest  income that would have been recorded on loans accounted for on a
nonaccrual basis under the original terms of such loans was approximately $3,000
for the year ended December 31, 1997.

   
         We  presently  have  one  piece  of  real  estate  owned  property,   a
residential  property in Peters  Township,  appraised at $540,000.  The original
loan, an equity line of credit,  was granted on March 29, 1989, in the amount of
$300,000 and was increased to $320,000 on May 9, 1995.  Management believes that
the carrying value of this real estate property is adequate,  however, there can
be no assurance that we will not recognize additional significant losses to this
property.

         Classified Assets. OTS regulations provide for a classification  system
for problem assets of savings banks which covers all problem assets.  Under this
classification  system,  problem  assets  of  savings  banks  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 bank 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   weaknesses  that  do  not  currently  warrant
classification in one of the aforementioned categories.

         When a savings bank 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 bank  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 bank'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 bank's regulatory capital. Specific valuation allowances for loan losses
generally do not qualify as regulatory capital.

         The following table sets forth our classified assets in accordance with
our classification system.

         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.

         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  of the  amount of the  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.  Any  increase in the loan loss  allowance  required by the OTS would
have a negative impact on our earnings.

         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 December 31,
1997,

                                       41

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, and (viii) investment
grade corporate bonds,  commercial paper and mortgage derivative  products.  See
"-- Mortgage-backed Securities." The board of directors may authorize additional
investments.

         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.")

   
         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.  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.  See "Risk
Factors  Potential  Impact of Changes in Interest Rates and the Current Interest
Rate Environment." Mortgage-backed securities issued by FHLMC and GNMA make up a
majority of the pass-through certificates market.

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 passbook savings accounts,  money market accounts,
and term certificate  accounts.  IRA accounts and NOW 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.

         At December 31, 1997, we had no brokered deposits and our deposits were
represented by the following types of savings programs.

         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 expect to become a member of the FHLB of Pittsburgh as
part of the  Conversion  and will be able to borrow up to the  amount set by 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 December 31, 1997, we were not a member of
and had no borrowings from the FHLB of Pittsburgh.

<PAGE>




         At December 31, 1997 and 1996,  we had an  available  line of credit in
the  amount  of  $500,000.  The  outstanding  balance  on the line of  credit at
December 31, 1997 and 1996 was $0 and $300,000, respectively. The line of credit
is payable  upon demand and bears  interest  at a rate of prime plus  1.25%.  In
addition, pursuant to the terms of the line of credit agreement, in order for us
to borrow any funds we are required to maintain a certificate  of deposit at the
lending  institution;  as of December  31, 1997 and 1996,  this  certificate  of
deposit was $100,000.

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.

Properties

   
         We  operate  from one  office,  which we own,  located  at 17 West Mall
Plaza,  Carnegie,  Pennsylvania ^. The office was acquired in 1986 and has a net
book value at December 31, 1997 of $144,000.
    

Personnel

         At  December  31,  1997 we had  six  full-time  employees.  None of our
employees are represented by a collective  bargaining group. We believe that our
relationship with our employees is good.

Legal Proceedings

         We are, from time to time, a party to legal proceedings  arising in the
ordinary  course of our business,  including  legal  proceedings  to enforce our
rights against borrowers.  We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings
which  are  expected  to  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  our  financial
statements.

                                   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.

Carnegie Financial Corporation Regulation

         General. CFC 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 CFC 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 CFC.

         QTL Test. Since CFC will only own one savings  institution,  it will be
able to diversify its operations  into  activities  not related to banking,  but
only as long as we satisfy the QTL test.  If CFC 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.  CFC must obtain  approval from the OTS
before  acquiring  control of any other  FDIC-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,  BIF-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.

         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 BIF and  depositors.
The regulatory structure also gives 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.

         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
such as ours  were  substantially  less than  premiums  for  deposits  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 September 30, 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.


                                       48

<PAGE>



         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 $.0125 per $100 of deposits in 1998. SAIF assessments for
healthy savings  institutions in 1998 will be  approximately  $.0628 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."

         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 federal 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 federal
savings  institutions  with more than a "normal"  level of interest rate risk to
maintain additional total capital. An institution's interest rate

                                       49

<PAGE>



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 federal 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.  Federal
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
will  require  us to  give  the  OTS 30  days  advance  notice  of any  proposed
declaration  of  dividends  to CFC,  and the OTS  has the  authority  under  its
supervisory  powers to  prohibit  the  payment  of  dividends  by us to CFC.  In
addition,  we may not declare or pay a cash dividend on our capital stock if the
effect would be to reduce our 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 Carnegie Savings Bank -- Liquidation Account."

         OTS regulations  impose  limitations upon all capital  distributions by
federal 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. We expect
to qualify 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

                                       50

<PAGE>



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.

         In January 1998, the OTS proposed amendments to its current regulations
with  respect  to  capital  distributions  by  savings  associations.  Under the
proposed regulation,  savings associations that would remain at least adequately
capitalized  following the capital  distribution,  and that meet other specified
requirements,  would not be required to file a notice or application for capital
distributions (such as cash dividends)  declared below specified amounts.  Under
the proposed  regulation,  savings associations which are eligible for expedited
treatment  under current OTS regulations are not required to file a notice or an
application  with the OTS if (i) the savings  association  would remain at least
adequately capitalized following the capital distribution and (ii) the amount of
capital   distribution   does  not  exceed  an  amount   equal  to  the  savings
association's  net income for that year to date, plus the savings  association's
retained  net  income  for the  previous  two years.  Thus,  under the  proposed
regulation,  only  undistributed  net  income  for the  prior  two  years may be
distributed in addition to the current year's  undistributed  net income without
the filing of an application  with the OTS.  Savings  associations  which do not
qualify for expedited  treatment or which desire to make a capital  distribution
in excess of the specified amount, must file an application with, and obtain the
approval  of, the OTS prior to making the capital  distribution.  Under  certain
other circumstances, savings associations will be required to file a notice with
OTS prior to making the capital  distribution.  The OTS proposed  limitations on
capital  distributions  are similar to the  limitations  imposed  upon  national
banks.  We are unable to predict  whether or when the proposed  regulation  will
become effective.

         A federal  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  federal  savings   institution  cannot  distribute
regulatory capital that is needed for its liquidation account.

         Qualified Thrift Lender Test. Federal 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 have 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, federal 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. We are not yet subject to the
QTL requirements.

         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 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 CFC 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.

                                       51

<PAGE>




         Liquidity  Requirements.  All federal 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. Monetary penalties may
be imposed upon institutions for violations of liquidity requirements.

         Federal  Home  Loan  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. We are 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.

         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.

                                    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.
Thrift institutions with $500 million of assets or less are generally allowed to
account for their bad debts by using a reserve  method of accounting  under Code
ss.585.  Alternatively,  thrift institutions may choose to account for their bad
debts by using the specific  charge off method  under Code ss.166.  In the past,
due to  certain  State law  restrictions  which no  longer  apply to us, we have
accounted for our bad debts using the specific charge off method.  Currently, we
are reviewing the benefits, if any, of changing our method of accounting for our
bad debts to the reserve method of accounting.

         We are not currently  required by the Code to use the accrual method of
accounting for tax purposes.  However, we are reviewing the benefits, if any, of
changing  from the cash  basis  to the  accrual  method  of  accounting  for tax
purposes to determine the most  favorable  method for us.  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.

         CFC 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 CFC  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 December 31, 1993. As a result of the audit,  there was no
material effect to our financial statements.

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  certain
adjustments.  Our tax rate under the Mutual  Thrift  Institutions  Tax is 11.5%.
Interest on state

                                       53

<PAGE>



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 CARNEGIE FINANCIAL CORPORATION

         CFC board of directors  consists of the same  individuals  who serve as
directors of Carnegie Savings Bank. The articles of incorporation  and bylaws of
CFC 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. The officers of CFC
will be elected annually by the board and serve at the board's discretion.  Such
officers are also officers of Carnegie Savings Bank.
See "Management of Carnegie Savings Bank."

                       MANAGEMENT OF CARNEGIE SAVINGS BANK

Directors and Executive Officers

         Our board of  directors is composed of five members each of whom serves
for a term of three years, with approximately one-third of the directors elected
each year.  Our proposed  stock  charter and bylaws  require  that  directors be
divided into four classes,  as nearly equal in number as possible.  Our officers
are elected annually by our board and serve at the board's discretion.

         The  following  table  sets  forth  information  with  respect  to  our
directors and executive officers, all of whom will continue to serve in the same
capacities after the conversion.

Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors

         The board of directors  conducts its business  through  meetings of the
board and through  activities of its committees.  During the year ended December
31, 1997, the board of directors held 12 regular meetings.  No director attended
fewer than 75% of the total meetings of the board of directors and committees on
which such director served during the year ended December 31, 1997.

Director Compensation

   
         ^ During  1997,  each  director  was paid a fee of $300 for each  Board
meeting attended. Beginning in January 1998, each director will be paid a fee of
$400 per Board  meeting  attended.  The total fees paid to the directors for the
year ended  December  31, 1997 were  $19,800.  Directors  are not paid a fee for
attending committee meetings nor will they be paid a fee for attending CFC Board
meetings.

monthly  payment  equal  to 80% of  the  Board  fee in  effect  at the  date  of
retirement for a period of 120 months.  Benefits under our DRP will begin upon a
director's retirement.  In the event there is a change in control, all directors
will be  presumed  to have not less than 10 years of service  and each  director
will receive a lump sum payment  equal to the present  value of future  benefits
payable.

         Employment Agreement. We have entered into an employment agreement with
our President, Ms. Shirley Chiesa. Ms. Chiesa's base salary under the employment
agreement  is  $75,000.  The  employment  agreement  has a term of  three  years
beginning January 1, 1998. The agreement is terminable by us for "just cause" as
defined in the  agreement.  If we terminate Ms. Chiesa  without just cause,  Ms.
Chiesa  will be  entitled  to a  continuation  of her  salary  from  the date of
termination  through  the  remaining  term  of  the  agreement.  The  employment
agreement  contains a provision  stating that in the event of the termination of
employment  in  connection  with any change in control of us, Ms. Chiesa will be
paid a lump sum amount equal to 2.99 times her five year average  annual taxable
cash  compensation.  If such  payments  had been made under the  agreement as of
December 31, 1997, such payments would have equaled approximately  $246,435. The
aggregate  payments  that would have been made to Ms. Chiesa would be an expense
to us,  thereby  reducing  our net income and our  capital by that  amount.  The
agreement may be renewed annually by our board of directors upon a determination
of satisfactory  performance  within the board's sole discretion.  If Ms. Chiesa
shall become  disabled  during the term of the agreement,  she shall continue to
receive  payment of 100% of the base salary for a period of 12 months and 65% of
such base salary for the remaining term of such  agreement.  Such payments shall
be reduced by any other benefit payments made under other disability programs in
effect for our employees.
    

     Retirement Plan. Our Simplified  Employee Pension Plan ("SEP") provides for
an annual  contribution  at the  discretion of our directors of up to 15% of the
eligible employee's compensation. In 1997, our SEP expenses were $15,000.

   
         Supplemental   Executive   Retirement   Plan.  We  have  implemented  a
supplemental   executive  retirement  plan  ("SERP")  for  the  benefit  of  our
President,  Shirley  Chiesa.  The SERP  provides  that Ms.  Chiesa  may  receive
additional  retirement  income in  addition  to the  value of her SERP  account,
provided she remains  employed  until not less than age 65 and has completed not
less than 25 years of  service.  Benefits  payable  under  the SERP  will  equal
approximately $3,300 per month for a period of 120 months. Upon a termination of
employment  following a change in control,  Ms.  Chiesa will be presumed to have
attained not less than the minimum retirement age under the SERP. Payments under
the SERP will be accrued for financial  reporting  purposes during the period of
employment of Ms. Chiesa. At December 31, 1997,  approximately  $35,580 has been
accrued and recognized as an expense. The SERP shall be unfunded.
    

                                       56

<PAGE>



All benefits payable under the SERP will be paid from our current assets.  There
are no tax  consequences to either Ms. Chiesa or us related to the SERP prior to
payment of  benefits.  Upon  receipt of payment of  benefits,  Ms.  Chiesa  will
recognize taxable ordinary income in the amount of such payments received and we
will be entitled  to  recognize a  tax-deductible  compensation  expense at that
time.

         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 the  Company.  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.,  14,400  shares,
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 $14,400 annually (based on a
$144,000  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  207,000
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.

         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  allocations
following  five years of service.  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 the Company, 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 the 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.

Proposed Future Stock Benefit Plans

         Stock  Option  Plan.  Our board of  directors  intends to adopt a stock
option plan (the Option Plan) following the  conversion,  subject to approval by
CFC'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 10% of the aggregate shares of
common stock to be issued in the offering  (i.e.,  18,000  shares based upon the
sale of  180,000  shares  at the  midpoint  of the EVR)  would be  reserved  for
issuance by CFC 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 CFC. Under the OTS regulations, the Option Plan,
would provide that options awarded 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.

         CFC 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,
treasury shares,  or shares purchased in the open market by CFC. The exercise of
options and payment for the shares  received  would  contribute to the equity of
CFC.

         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. Our 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.  CFC 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,  treasury  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 CFC, as
the

                                       58

<PAGE>



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 180,000  shares of common  stock in the  offering  at the
midpoint of the EVR, the RSP Trust is expected to purchase up to 7,200 shares of
common stock. 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 CFC'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 CARNEGIE FINANCIAL CORPORATION

         While the board of  directors  is not aware of any effort that might be
made to obtain control of CFC after conversion,  the board of directors believes
that it is appropriate to include  certain  provisions as part of CFC's articles
of  incorporation  to protect the  interests  of CFC 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 CFC 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 CFC, 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 CFC
which  are  filed as  exhibits  to the  registration  statement  of  which  this
prospectus is a part. See "Where You Can Find Additional  Information" as to how
to obtain a copy of these documents.

Provisions of CFC Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws

         Limitations  on Voting  Rights.  The articles of  incorporation  of CFC
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 CFC.

         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 CFC further
provide that this provision  limiting voting rights may only be amended upon the
vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of voting stock.

         Election  of  Directors.   Certain  provisions  of  CFC's  articles  of
incorporation and bylaws will impede changes in majority control of the board of
directors.  CFC's articles of incorporation  provide that the board of directors
of CFC 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 CFC's board. CFC'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 a majority of the shares
of CFC entitled to vote  generally in an election of directors cast at a meeting
of stockholders called for that purpose.


                                       60

         Restrictions on Call of Special Meetings. The articles of incorporation
of CFC  provide  that a special  meeting  of  stockholders  may be  called  only
pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the board of directors.

     Absence of Cumulative Voting. CFC'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 2,000,000  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  CFC'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 CFC. 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 CFC  entitled to vote in the election of directors in order for CFC 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 CFC'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 CFC or its  subsidiary)  who
beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the outstanding shares
of voting stock of CFC. Any amendment to this provision requires the affirmative
vote of at least  80% of the  shares of CFC  entitled  to vote  generally  in an
election of directors.

         Amendment to Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.  Amendments to CFC's
articles of incorporation  must be approved by CFC's board of directors and also
by a  majority  of the  outstanding  shares  of CFC'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 CFC entitled to vote in the election of  directors  cast at a meeting  called
for that purpose.

         Benefit  Plans.  In addition  to the  provisions  of CFC'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 and the  provisions of such plans  relating to changes in control,
see  "Management  of Carnegie  Savings  Bank -- Proposed  Future  Stock  Benefit
Plans."

                                       61

         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

         CFC is authorized to issue 4,000,000 shares of the common stock,  $0.10
par value per share,  and 2,000,000  shares of serial  preferred  stock,  no par
value per share.  CFC currently  expects to issue up to 207,000 shares of common
stock in the  conversion.  CFC 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 CFC. The balance of the purchase
price will be recorded for accounting  purposes as additional  paid-in  capital.
See  "Capitalization."  The capital stock of CFC will represent  nonwithdrawable
capital and will not be insured by us, the FDIC, or any other government agency.

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 CFC, 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 CFC's directors.


                                       62

<PAGE>



         Liquidation.  In the  unlikely  event of the  complete  liquidation  or
dissolution  of CFC, the holders of the common stock will be entitled to receive
all assets of CFC available for  distribution in cash or in kind,  after payment
or  provision  for  payment of (i) all debts and  liabilities  of CFC;  (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 CFC" 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 CFC without first offering such shares to existing stockholders
of CFC.  The  common  stock  is not  subject  to call  for  redemption,  and the
outstanding  shares of common  stock when issued and upon  receipt by CFC of the
full purchase price therefor will be fully paid and non-assessable.

         Issuance of Additional Shares. Except in the subscription offering, or,
if any,  the  community  offering or public or  syndicated  public  offering and
possibly pursuant to the RSP or Stock Option Plan, the CFC 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
Carnegie  Financial  Corporation"  for  information  regarding  restrictions  on
acquiring common stock of CFC.

Serial Preferred Stock

         None of the 2,000,000  authorized  shares of serial  preferred stock of
CFC will be issued in the  conversion.  After the  conversion is completed,  the
board of directors of CFC 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 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 Capital
Resources,  Inc.  may be  passed  upon  by  Steele,  Silcox  &  Browning,  P.C.,

                            REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS

         The common stock of CFC will be registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of
the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the  "Exchange  Act") prior to
completion  of the  conversion.  CFC will be subject to the  information,  proxy
solicitation,   insider  trading  restrictions,  tender  offer  rules,  periodic
reporting and other  requirements of the SEC under the Exchange Act. CFC may not
deregister  the common  stock  under the  Exchange  Act for a period of at least
three years following the conversion.

                    WHERE YOU CAN FIND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

         CFC  and  Carnegie  Savings  Bank  are  not  currently  subject  to the

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Board of Trustees
Carnegie Savings Bank
Carnegie, Pennsylvania

We have audited the  accompanying  statements  of condition of Carnegie  Savings
Bank as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related statements of operations,
changes in retained  earnings,  and cash flows for the years then  ended.  These
financial  statements  are the  representation  of the  Bank's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these 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 financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material  respects,  the financial  position of Carnegie  Savings Bank as of
December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the years  then  ended in  conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles.

                          Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
- ----------------------------------------------------

Nature of operations

Carnegie Savings Bank (the "Bank")  provides a variety of financial  services to
individual  and  business  customers  through  its  one  location  in  Carnegie,
Pennsylvania,  which is a  southwestern  suburb of the city of  Pittsburgh.  The
Bank's primary deposit products are interest-bearing checking accounts, passbook
savings accounts, and certificates of deposit. It's primary lending products are
single-family residential first mortgages and consumer type loans.

Effective  April 3, 1995, the Bank was successful in converting from a privately
insured  Pennsylvania-chartered savings association to a FDIC insured non-member
state mutual savings bank.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting  principles  requires the Bank 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 and the valuation
of  real  estate  acquired  in  foreclosure  or in  satisfaction  of  loans.  In
connection  with  the  determination  of  the  allowance  for  loan  losses  and
foreclosed real estate, the Bank obtains independent  appraisals for significant

A majority of the Bank's loan portfolio  consists of  single-family  residential
mortgage  loans in the  southwestern  Pennsylvania  area.  The regional  economy
depends primarily on manufacturing and service related industries.  The ultimate
collectibility  of the Bank's loan  portfolio  and the  recovery of the carrying
amount of foreclosed  real estate are susceptible to changes in the local market
conditions.

While the Bank  uses  available  information  to  recognize  losses on loans and
foreclosed real estate, future additions to the allowance for loan losses 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 Bank's  allowance for loan losses and foreclosed real estate.  Such agencies
may require the Bank to  recognize  additions to the  allowances  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  allowances  for
losses on loans and  foreclosed  real estate may change  materially  in the near
term.

Cash equivalents

For the purpose of reporting cash flows, the Bank considers all cash and amounts
due  from  depository   institutions,   FHLB  interest  bearing  deposits,   and
certificates  of deposits  maturing in less than 90 days to be cash  equivalents
for purposes of the statements of cash flows.  As of December 31, 1997 and 1996,
the Bank had  interest  bearing  deposits  that totaled  $842,138 and  $540,882,
respectively.

Investment securities, net including Mortgage Backed Securities

Investment   securities   consist  primarily  of  various  debt  securities  and
mortgage-backed  securities which represent  participating interests in pools of
long-term  first  mortgage  loans  originated  and  serviced  by  issuers of the
securities. Mortgage-backed securities are carried at unpaid principal balances,
adjusted for unamortized premiums and unearned discounts.

In May 1993, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Financial
Accounting Standard ("FAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity  Securities."  As required by FAS 115,  the Bank adopted the standard
for the year  beginning  January  1,  1994,  without  an effect on the  reported
operations  for  1994.  Pursuant  to the  requirements  of  FAS  115,  the  Bank
classifies  all of its  investments  in debt and  equity  securities  into three
categories.  Securities which the Bank has a positive intent and ability to hold
to maturity are  classified  as held to maturity  ("HTM").  Securities  that are
purchased  and held  principally  for the  purpose of  selling  them in the near
future are classified as trading  securities.  All other securities that are not
within the above classifications are classified as available for sale securities
("AFS").  Unrealized  gains and losses for trading  securities  are  included in
current earnings.  Unrealized gains and losses for AFS are excluded from current
earnings and reported as a separate component of retained earnings,  net of tax,
until realized.  Investments  classified as HTM are carried at cost and adjusted
for amortization of premiums and the accretion of discounts over the term of the
investment  utilizing  methods that approximate the interest  method.  Gains and
losses on the sales of securities  are  recognized  upon  realization.  Costs of
securities is recognized using the specific identification method.

Loans receivable, net

Loans are stated at unpaid principal  balances,  less allowance for loan losses.
The  amount  of  origination  and loan  fees is not  material  to the  financial
statements and, accordingly, the Bank recognizes these fees as revenue when they
are received.

Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when a loan is specifically  determined to
be impaired or when principal or interest payments are delinquent for 90 days or
more. Any unpaid  interest  previously  accrued on nonaccrual  loans is reversed
from current  interest income.  Prospectively,  interest income generally is not
recognized on specific  impaired  loans unless the likelihood of further loss is
remote.  Interest  payments received on such loans are applied as a reduction of
the outstanding  loan principal  balance.  Interest  income on other  nonaccrual
loans is  recognized  only to the extent of interest  payments  received.  As of
December 31, 1997 and 1996, the Bank did not have any impaired loans.

The  allowance  for loan losses is  maintained  at a level which,  in the Bank's
judgment,  is adequate to absorb credit losses  inherent in the loan  portfolio.
The  amount  of the  allowance  is  based  upon  the  Bank's  evaluation  of the
collectibility  of the loan  portfolio,  including the nature of the  portfolio,
credit concentrations,  trends in historical loss experience,  specific impaired
loans,  and economic  conditions.  Allowances  for impaired  loans are generally
determined  based on collateral  values or the present  value of estimated  cash
flows.  The  allowance  is increased  by a provision  for loan losses,  which is
charged to current operations, and reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries.

Accrued interest receivable

Accrued interest  receivable  consists of accrued interest on all loan types and
investment securities.

Property and equipment, net
   
Property and equipment are recorded at cost.  Depreciation  expense is generally
provided on the straight-line  basis for book purposes over the estimated useful
lives of the related assets which range from 5 to 31 years.
    
Real estate owned

Real estate property acquired through loan foreclosure, or deed in lieu thereof,
is recorded at the lower of the Bank's cost or the asset's fair value less costs
to sell  (estimated  net  realizable  value),  which becomes the  property's new
basis. Any write-downs based on the assets fair value at date of acquisition are
charged to the allowance for loan losses.  After  foreclosure,  these assets are
carried  at the lower of their new cost  basis or fair  value less cost to sell.
Costs incurred in maintaining real estate and subsequent  write-downs to reflect
declines in the fair value of the property are included in net income  (loss) on
real-estate owned on the statement of operations.

During the year  ended  December  31,  1997,  the Bank sold a piece of  property
previously  reported as real estate owned  resulting in a gain of  approximately
$13,693. Additionally,  during 1997 the Bank purchased a piece of property which
increased real estate owned by approximately $480,326.

Income taxes

The FASB issued FAS No. 109,  "Accounting  for Income  Taxes," in February 1993.
The  Bank  adopted  the  provisions  of FAS 109 in 1993  without  effect  on the
reported results of operations.  Under FAS 109, an asset and liability  approach
is required for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes.

Income taxes are provided  for the tax effects of the  transactions  reported in
the financial  statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes
related primarily to differences caused by the recognition of certain income and
expense  items on the accrual basis for  financial  reporting  purposes and cash
basis  for  income  tax  purposes.  The  deferred  taxes  also  are  related  to
differences  between the tax and financial  reporting  basis for AFS securities,
loans receivable,  net, accrued liabilities  related to supplemental  retirement
programs (see Note 8), and property and equipment, net.

Other assets

Other assets at December 31, consisted primarily of the following items:

The amortized cost and fair value of  mortgage-backed  securities as of December
31, 1997 and 1996, by contractual maturity, are 10 years or more, except for one
at December 31, 1997 which matures on August 20, 2005.  The  amortized  cost and
fair value of this  security at December  31,  1997 is  $191,762  and  $192,734,
respectively.   However,   expected  maturities  will  differ  from  contractual
maturities  because  borrowers may have the right to call or prepay  obligations
without call or prepayment penalties.

In the  opinion  of the  Bank's  management,  such  transactions  were  and will
continue to be on  substantially  the same terms,  including  interest  rate and
collateral,  as those  prevailing at the time for comparable  transactions  with
other  persons and do not involve  more than  normal risk of  collectibility  or
present any other  unfavorable  features to the Bank. The approximate  aggregate
dollar  amount of these loans at December  31,  1997 and 1996 was  $303,190  and
$639,730,  respectively.  An analysis of the  activity in the loans to executive
officers and directors during 1997 is as follows:

Note 8 - Retirement Plan:
- -------------------------

Simplified Employee Pension Plan (SEP)

The Bank has adopted a SEP plan which provides for an annual contribution at the
discretion  of the  Board  of  Directors  up to 15% of the  eligible  employee's
compensation. Pension expense charged to operations for the years ended December
31, 1997 and 1996, was $14,799 and $19,256, respectively.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

On  December  15,  1997,  the  Board  of  Directors   adopted  a   non-qualified
Supplemental  Executive Retirement Plan (the "Plan") with an officer of the Bank
to provide post-retirement benefits for a period of ten (10) years, assuming not
less than twenty-five (25) years of service  following  retirement after age 65.
Pursuant to the Plan,  benefits also become payable upon  disability,  death, or
change of control of the Bank (as defined in the Plan document).  As of December
31, 1997, approximately $35,580 has been accrued and recognized as an expense.

Directors Consultation and Retirement Plan

On December 15, 1997, the Board of Directors  adopted a non-qualified  Directors
Consultation   and  Retirement   Plan  (  the   "Directors   Plan")  to  provide
post-retirement benefits over a period of ten-years (10) to members of the Board
of Directors who have completed not less than ten-years (10) of service or after
attainment  of not less than age 60.  Pursuant to the Directors  Plan,  benefits
also become payable upon disability, death, or change of control of the Bank (as
defined in the Plan document).  As of December 31, 1997,  approximately $122,920
has been accrued and recognized as an expense.

Note 9 - Regulatory Capital Requirements:
- -----------------------------------------

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital  requirements  administered by
its primary federal regulator, The Federal Insurance Deposit Corporation (FDIC).
Failure to meet the minimum regulatory capital requirements can initiate certain
mandatory, and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators,  that if
undertaken,  could have a direct  material  affect on the

                                      F-13
<PAGE>

Bank  and the  financial  statements.  Under  the  regulatory  capital  adequacy
guidelines and the regulatory  framework for prompt corrective  action, the Bank
must meet specific capital  guidelines  involving  quantitative  measures of the
Bank's assets,  liabilities,  and certain  off-balance-sheet items as calculated
under  regulatory   accounting   practices.   The  Bank's  capital  amounts  and
classifications  under the prompt  corrective action guidelines 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 of:  total  risk-based
capital  and  Tier  I  capital  to  risk-weighted  assets  ( as  defined  in the
regulations),  and Tier I  capital  to  adjusted  total  assets  ( as  defined).
Management  believes,  as of December 31, 1997 and 1996,  the Bank meets all the
capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

regulatory capital as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 (dollars in thousands):

Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies:
- ----------------------------------------

Commitments

In the normal course of business,  the Bank makes various  commitments which are
not  reflected  in the  accompanying  financial  statements.  These  instruments
involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess
of the amount  recognized in the statement of condition.  The Bank's exposure to
credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other parties to the financial
instruments  is  represented  by the  contractual  amounts  disclosed.  The Bank
minimizes its exposure to credit loss under these commitments by subjecting them
to credit approval and review procedures, and collateral requirements, as deemed
necessary.

The off-balance  sheet  commitments as of December 31, 1997 and 1996,  consisted
approximately of the following:

                                                    ---------------------------      -----------------------
                                                    $                  813,000       $             333,000
                                                    ===========================      =======================
</TABLE>

   
The Bank has no commitment to loan additional  funds to borrowers of impaired or
nonaccrual  loans.  The  majority of the Bank's  commitments  to fund the equity
lines of credit are at variable market rates of interest;  the Bank's commitment
to fund future loans for one to four family  mortgage loans are generally  fixed
rates ranging from 7.25% to 8.25%.  Generally,  the Bank's  commitments  to fund
future loans expire in 30 to 60 days.
    

Contingencies

In the  normal  course  of  business,  the Bank is  involved  in  various  legal
proceedings  primarily  involving the collection of outstanding  loans.  None of
these  proceedings  are  expected  to have a  material  effect on the  financial
position of the Bank.

The Bank is aware of the issues associated with the programming code in existing
computer  systems as the  millennium ( Year 2000 )  approaches.  The "Year 2000"
problem is pervasive and complex as virtually  every computer  operation will be
affected  in some way by the  rollover  of the  two-digit  year value to 00. The
issue  is  whether  computer  systems  will  properly  recognize  date-sensitive
information  when  the  year  changes  to  2000.  Systems  that do not  properly
recognize such  information  could generate  erroneous data or cause a system to
fail.

   
The Bank  utilizes a service  bureau to process the  majority of its  accounting
transactions.  The Bank is  utilizing  the  expertise  of the service  bureau to
identify,  correct  or  reprogram,  and  test  the  systems  for the  year  2000
compliance. As of December 31, 1997, the Bank's service bureau has reported that
it is 82% complete with the project to bring its computer system into compliance
with the year 2000. It is expected  that the project will be fully  completed by
June 30, 1998,  and for testing to begin in the third quarter of 1998.  However,
the Bank will be  responsible  for  verifying  that all of its vendors  software
upgrades are year 2000  compliant and are fully tested,  including any interface
to its service bureau.  As a result,  the year 2000 compliance  creates risk for
the Bank from  unforeseen  problems in its own  computer  systems and from third
parties with whom the Bank deals on financial transactions  worldwide.  Although
the Bank has not yet  assessed  the year 2000  compliance  expense  and  related
potential  affect on the  Bank's  earnings,  it does not  expect the costs to be
material.

Note 13 - Plan of Conversion:
- -----------------------------

On December 15, 1997,  the Board of Trustees of the Bank,  subject to regulatory
approval,  ratified a Plan of  Conversion ( the "Plan" ) to convert from a state
mutual savings bank to a federally insured stock savings bank and the concurrent
formation of a holding  company for the Bank. The Plan provides that the holding
company will offer nontransferable  subscription rights to purchase common stock
of the holding  company.  The rights will be offered  first to eligible  account
holders,  the Bank's tax-qualified  employee stock benefits plans,  supplemental
eligible account holders,  and directors,  officers,  and employees.  Any shares
remaining may then be offered to the general public.

   
At the date of conversion,  the Bank will establish a liquidation  account in an
amount equal to its  retained  earnings reflected in the  statement of condition
appearing in the final prospects. The liquidation account will be maintained for
the  benefit of  eligible  account  holders and  supplemental  eligible  account
holders  who  continue  to  maintain  their  accounts  at  the  Bank  after  the
conversion.  The  liquidation  will be reduced  annually  to the  extent  these
account  holders  have reduced  their  qualifying  deposits.  In the event of a
complete  liquidation,  each eligible savings account holder will be entitled to
receive a distribution from the liquidation  account in an amount  proportionate
to the current adjusted qualifying balances for accounts then held.

The Bank may not declare or pay a cash  dividend  on, or  repurchase  any of its
common shares if the effect thereof would cause the Bank's  shareholders' equity
to be reduced below either the amount  required for the  liquidation  account or
the regulatory capital requirements for insured institutions.
    

Costs  associated  with the  conversion  will be deferred and deducted  from the
proceeds  of the  stock  offering.  If,  for any  reason,  the  offering  is not
successful, the deferred costs will be charged to operations. As of December 31,
1997,  there was $11,200 of costs  associated with the conversion that have been
deferred and presented as other assets.

Capital Resources, Inc.
1211 Connecticut Avenue, N.W.
Suite 200

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         Carnegie  Financial  Corporation  (the "Company") and Carnegie  Savings
Bank, a federally chartered mutual savings and loan association ("Association"),
with its deposit  accounts  insured by the Savings  Association  Insurance  Fund
("SAIF")  administered by the Federal Deposit  Insurance  Corporation  ("FDIC"),
hereby  confirm  their  agreement  with  Capital   Resources,   Inc.   ("Capital
Resources") as follows:

         SECTION  1. The  Offering.  The  Association,  in  accordance  with and
pursuant  to its plan of  conversion  adopted by the Board of  Directors  of the
Association  (the "Plan"),  intends to be converted  from a  federally-chartered
mutual savings and loan association to a  federally-chartered  stock savings and
loan  association and will sell all of its issued and  outstanding  stock to the
Company.  The Company will offer and sell its common stock (the "Common  Stock")
in a subscription  offering  ("Subscription  Offering") to (1) depositors of the
Bank as of November 30, 1996  ("Eligible  Account  Holders"),  (2) tax qualified
employee benefit plans of the Association,  (3) depositors of the Association as
of March 31, 1998 ("Supplemental  Eligible Account Holders"),  (4) certain other
members of the Association ("Other Members") and (5) its employees, officers and
directors,  pursuant  to rights to  subscribe  for  shares of Common  Stock (the
"Shares"). Subject to the prior subscription rights of the above-listed parties,
the Company may offer its Common Stock for sale in a public offering to selected
persons (the  "Public  Offering,")  and,  depending  on market  conditions,  the
Company  may also  offer  the  Common  Stock  for sale to  persons  residing  in
communities near the Association's  Offices in a direct community  offering (the
"Direct  Community  Offering")  conducted after the Subscription  Offering.  The
Public  Offering,  the Direct Community  Offering and Subscription  Offering are
refereed to collectively as the "Offering," and all such Offerees being referred
to in the  aggregate  as  "Eligible  Offerees."  Shares  may also be sold in the
Public  Offering by a selling group of  broker-dealers  organized and managed by
Capital  Resources.  It is  acknowledged  that the  purchase  of  Shares  in the
Offering is subject to maximum and minimum purchase  limitations as described in
the Plan and that the Company  may reject in whole or in part any  subscriptions
received from subscribers in the Public Offering or Direct Community Offering.

                                      - 1 -

         The Company and the Association  desire to retain Capital  Resources to
assist the Company with its sale of the Shares in the  Offering.  By and through
this Agreement, the Company and the Association confirm the retention of Capital
Resources to assist the Company and the Association during the Offering.

         The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange  Commission (the
"Commission")  a  registration  statement  on Form  SB-2  (File  No.  333-48655)
containing an offering  prospectus relating to the Offering for the registration
of the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and
has filed such amendments thereto, if any, and such amended  prospectuses as may
have been  required  to the date  hereof  (the  "Registration  Statement").  The
prospectus,  as amended,  included in the Registration  Statement at the time it
initially becomes effective,  is hereinafter  called the "Offering  Prospectus",
except that if any prospectus is filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b) or
(c) of the rules and regulations of the Commission under the 1933 Act (the "1933
Act  Regulations")  differing  from  the  offering  prospectus  included  in the
Registration  Statement at the time it  initially  becomes  effective,  the term
"Offering  Prospectus" shall refer to the offering  prospectus filed pursuant to
Rule  424(b) or (c) from and after the time said  offering  prospectus  is filed
with or mailed to the Commission for filing.

         In  accordance  with  Title  12,  Part  563b  of the  Code  of  Federal
Regulations (the "Conversion  Regulations"),  the Association has filed with the
Office  of Thrift  Supervision  (the  "OTS")  an  Application  for  Approval  of
Conversion  on Form AC (the  "Conversion  Application")  including  the Offering
Prospectus  and has filed  such  amendments  thereto,  if any,  as may have been
required by the OTS. The  Conversion  Application  has been approved by the OTS.
The Company has filed with the OTS its application on Form H-(e)lS (the "Holding
Company  Application")  to acquire the  Association  under the Home Owners' Loan
Act, as amended (12 U.S.C.
ss.1467a) ("HOLA").

         SECTION 2.  Retention  of  Capital  Resources;  Compensation;  Sale and
Delivery of the Shares.  Subject to the terms and  conditions  herein set forth,
the Company and the Association  hereby appoint Capital Resources as their agent
to advise and assist the Company and the Association  with the Company's sale of
the Shares in the Offering.

         On the basis of the representations,  warranties, and agreements herein
contained,  but subject to the terms and  conditions  herein set forth,  Capital
Resources  accepts  such  appointment  and agrees to consult with and advise the
Company and the  Association  as to matters  relating to the  Conversion and the
Offering.  It is acknowledged  by the Company and the  Association  that Capital
Resources  shall  not be  required  to  purchase  any  Shares  and  shall not be
obligated to take any action which is  inconsistent  with any  applicable  laws,
regulations,   decisions  or  orders.   If  requested  by  the  Company  or  the
Association,  Capital  Resources also may assemble and manage a selling group of
broker  dealers  which are members of the  National  Association  of  Securities
Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD") to participate in the solicitation of purchase orders
for Shares under a selected dealers' agreement ("Selected Dealers'  Agreement").
The obligations of Capital Resources  pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate
upon the  completion or termination or abandonment of the Plan by the Company or
the  Association or upon  termination of the  Subscription  Offering,  or if the
terms of the  Conversion  are  substantially  amended  so as to  materially  and
adversely  change the role of Capital  Resources,  but in no event later than 45
days after the  completion  of the Offering  (the "End  Date").  All fees due to
Capital  Resources  but unpaid will be payable to Capital  Resources in next day
funds at the earlier of the  Closing  Date (as  hereinafter  defined) or the End
Date. In the event the Offering are extended  beyond the End Date,  the Company,
the Association and Capital Resources may mutually agree to renew this Agreement
under mutually acceptable terms.

         In the event the Company is unable to sell a minimum of  $1,530,000  of
Common Stock within the period herein provided,  this Agreement shall terminate,
and the Company shall refund to any persons who have  subscribed  for any of the
Shares,  the full  amount  which it may have  received  from them  plus  accrued
interest as

                                      - 2 -

set forth in the Offering Prospectus;  and none of the parties to this Agreement
shall have any obligation to the other parties hereunder, except as set forth in
this Section 2 and in Sections 7, 9 and 10 hereof.

         In the event the closing does not occur,  the  Conversion is terminated
or otherwise abandoned, or the terms of the Conversion are substantially amended
so as to materially and adversely change the role of Capital Resources,  Capital
Resources  shall be entitled to retain any  compensation  already  received  for
consulting  services prior to the closing,  reimbursed for all reasonable  legal
fees and actual,  accountable  out-of-pocket  expenses subject to the limits set
forth in paragraph (b) below for rendering  financial  advice to the Association
concerning  the  structure of the  Conversion,  preparing a market and financial
analysis,  performing  due  diligence and  assisting in the  preparation  of the
Application for Conversion and the Registration  Statement,  which shall be paid
upon such  termination,  abandonment  or  amendment  or within five days of such
event.

         If all  conditions  precedent to the  consummation  of the  Conversion,
including, without limitation, the sale of all Shares required by the Plan to be
sold, are satisfied,  the Company agrees to issue or have issued the Shares sold
in the Offering and to release for delivery  certificates for such Shares on the
Closing  Date (as  hereinafter  defined)  against  payment to the Company by any
means authorized by the Plan, provided,  however,  that no certificates shall be
released  for such shares  until the  conditions  specified  in Section 7 hereof
shall  have  been  complied  with  to the  reasonable  satisfaction  of  Capital
Resources and its counsel.  The release of Shares against payment therefor shall
be made  on a date  and at a time  and  place  acceptable  to the  Company,  the
Association and Capital Resources. The date upon which the Company shall release
or deliver the Shares sold in the Offering, in accordance with the terms hereof,
is herein called the "Closing Date."

         Capital  Resources  shall  receive the following  compensation  for its
services hereunder:

         (a) a  marketing  fee in the amount of $60,000  (of which  $15,000  was
payable on execution of the engagement letter dated January 26, 1998 and $15,000
upon  regulatory  approval of the Conversion  Application  for  consulting  work
performed  prior  to  the  Offering,   and  the  balance  upon  closing  of  the
Conversion).

         (b)  Capital   Resources   shall  be  reimbursed   for  all  reasonable
out-of-pocket  expenses,  including,  but not  limited to,  legal fees,  travel,
communications  and  postage,  incurred by it whether or not the  Conversion  is
successfully  completed  as set forth in  Section 7  hereof.  Reimbursement  for
Capital  Resources'  legal and other expenses shall not exceed  $20,000,  unless
otherwise  approved by the  Association.  Capital  Resources shall be reimbursed
promptly  for all  out-of-pocket  expenses  upon  receipt by the  Company or the
Association of a monthly  itemized bill summarizing such expenses since the date
of the last bill, if any, to the date of the current bill.

         (c) In the event  other  broker-dealers  are  assembled  and managed by
Capital  Resources  to  participate  in the  sale of the  shares  pursuant  to a
Selected  Dealers'  Agreement  or  other   arrangement,   the  Company  and  the
Association  will enter into a separate  agreement  for the  payment of selected
dealers' commissions.

         All subscription  funds received by Capital  Resources (and if by check
shall be made payable to the Company) or by other NASD registered broker-dealers
soliciting  subscriptions (if any) shall be transmitted  (either by U.S. Mail or
similar type of  transmittal)  to the Company by noon of the following  business
day.

         SECTION 3.  Offering  Prospectus;  the  Offering.  The Shares are to be
initially  offered in the  Offering  at the  Purchase  Price as set forth on the
cover page of the Offering Prospectus.

         SECTION  4.  Representations  and  Warranties.   The  Company  and  the
Association  jointly and severally represent and warrant to Capital Resources as
follows:

Pittsburgh  ("FHLBPB");  and the deposit accounts of the Association are insured

The consummation of the Conversion,  the execution,  delivery and performance of

creditors  of  savings  and  loan  holding  companies,  the  accounts  of  whose
subsidiaries are insured by the FDIC or by general equity principles  regardless
of whether such  enforceability  is  considered  in a proceeding in equity or at
law, and except to the extent,  if any, that the provisions of Sections 9 and 10
hereof may be unenforceable as against public policy) or pursuant to Section 23A
of the Federal Reserve Act.

         (l)  The  Company  and the  Association  are  not in  violation  of any
directive which has been delivered to the Company or the Association or of which
management of the Company or the Association has actual  knowledge from the OTS,
the Commission,  the FDIC or any other agency to make any material change in the
method of conducting their  businesses so as to comply in all material  respects
with all applicable  statutes and regulations  (including,  without  limitation,
regulations, decisions, directives and orders of the OTS, the Commission and the
FDIC) and except as set forth in the  Registration  Statement  and the  Offering
Prospectus,  there is no suit or proceeding  or, to the knowledge of the Company
or the  Association,  charge,  investigation  or action  before or by any court,
regulatory  authority  or  governmental  agency  or  body,  pending  or,  to the
knowledge of the Company or the Association,  threatened, which might materially
and adversely  affect the  Conversion,  the performance of this Agreement or the
consummation  of the  transactions  contemplated in the Plan and as described in
the Registration  Statement or which might result in any material adverse change
in the  condition  (financial  or  otherwise),  earnings,  capital,  properties,
business  affairs or business  prospects  of the Company or the  Association  or
which would materially affect their properties and assets.

         (m) The  financial  statements  which are included in the  Registration
Statement  and which are part of the  Offering  Prospectus  fairly  present  the
financial condition, results of operations,  retained earnings and cash flows of
the Association at the respective  dates thereof and for the respective  periods
covered  thereby,  and  comply  as to form in all  material  respects  with  the
applicable  accounting   requirements  of  Title  12  of  the  Code  of  Federal
Regulations and generally accepted  accounting  principles  ("GAAP")  (including
those  requiring the recording of certain assets at their current market value).
Such  financial  statements  have been  prepared in  accordance  with  generally
accepted  accounting   principles   consistently  applied  through  the  periods
involved, present fairly in all

material  respects  the  information  required  to be  stated  therein  and  are
consistent with the most recent financial  statements and other reports filed by
the Association  with the OTS and the FDIC,  except that  accounting  principles
employed in such filings  conform to  requirements  of such  authorities and not
necessarily to generally accepted  accounting  principles.  The other financial,
statistical and pro forma information and related notes included in the Offering
Prospectus  present fairly the information  shown therein on a basis  consistent
with the audited and unaudited financial statements,  if any, of the Association
included in the Offering  Prospectus,  and as to the pro forma adjustments,  the
adjustments  made  therein  have been  properly  applied on the basis  described
therein.

         (n) Since the respective dates as of which  information is given in the
Registration  Statement and the Offering Prospectus,  except as may otherwise be
stated  therein:  (i)  there  has not been any  material  adverse  change in the
financial condition of the Company or the Association, or of the Company and the
Association  considered  as  one  enterprise,  or  in  the  earnings,   capital,
properties,  business  affairs  or  business  prospects  of the  Company  or the
Association,  whether or not arising in the ordinary  course of  business,  (ii)
there has not been (A) an  increase  of greater  than  $250,000 in the long term
debt of the Association or (B) an increase of $250,000 in non performing  assets
(consisting of accruing loans past due 90 days or more,  non-accruing  loans and
foreclosed  assets) or (C) a decrease of $175,000 or more in the  allowance  for
loan losses or (D) any  decrease in total equity or (E) a decrease in net income
from January 1, 1998 to date when compared to the like period in 1997 or (F) any

(excluding the proceeds of stock subscriptions) or (H) any other material change
which  would  require  an  amendment  to  the  Offering  Prospectus;  (iii)  the
Association  has  not  issued  any  securities  or  incurred  any  liability  or
obligation  for borrowing  other than in the ordinary  course of business;  (iv)
there have not been any material transactions entered into by the Company or the
Association,  except  with  respect to those  transactions  entered  into in the
ordinary course of business;  and (v) the capitalization,  liabilities,  assets,
properties  and  business  of the  Company  and the  Association  conform in all
material  respects  to  the  descriptions  thereof  contained  in  the  Offering
Prospectus,  and  neither  the Company  nor the  Association  have any  material
liabilities  of any kind,  contingent or  otherwise,  except as set forth in the
Offering Prospectus.

         (o) As of the date  hereof  and as of the  Closing  Date,  neither  the
Company nor the Association is in violation of its certificate of  incorporation
or  charter,  respectively,  or its bylaws (and the  Association  will not be in
violation of its charter or bylaws in capital stock form as of the Closing Date)
or in default in the  performance  or  observance  of any  material  obligation,
agreement,  covenant,  or  condition  contained  in any  contract,  lease,  loan
agreement,  indenture or other instrument to which it is a party or by which it,
or any of its  property  may be bound which would  result in a material  adverse
change in the condition (financial or otherwise), earnings, capital, properties,
business  affairs or business  prospects of the Company or  Association or which
would  materially  affect their  properties or assets.  The  consummation of the
transactions  herein  contemplated  will not (i) conflict  with or  constitute a
breach of, or default under, the certificate of incorporation  and bylaws of the
Company,  the charter and bylaws of the Association (in either mutual or capital
stock form), or any material  contract,  lease or other  instrument to which the
Company or the  Association  has a beneficial  interest,  or any applicable law,
rule, regulation or order; (ii) violate any authorization,  approval,  judgment,

Association;  or (iii) with the exception of the Liquidation Account established
in the  Conversion,  result in the  creation  of any  material  lien,  charge or
encumbrance upon any property of the Company or the Association.

         (p) No default  exists,  and no event has occurred which with notice or
lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default on the part of the Company or
the Association,  in the due performance and observance of any term, covenant or
condition of any indenture,  mortgage,  deed of trust, note, Association loan or
credit  agreement or any other  instrument  or agreement to which the Company or
the  Association  is a party or by which any of them or any of their property is
bound or affected in any respect  which,  in any such cases,  is material to the
Company

or the Association;  such agreements are in full force and effect;  and no other
party to any such  agreements  has  instituted  or, to the best knowledge of the

Company  or  the  Association  would  or  might  be  alleged  to be  in  default
thereunder.

         (q) Upon  consummation  of the Conversion,  the authorized,  issued and
outstanding  equity capital of the Company will be within the range set forth in
the Registration Statement under the caption  "Capitalization," and no shares of
Common  Stock have been or will be issued and  outstanding  prior to the Closing

authorized  for issuance and, when issued and delivered by the Company  pursuant
to the Plan against payment of the consideration  calculated as set forth in the

paid and  non-assessable;  the  issuance  of the  Shares  will not  violate  any
preemptive  rights;  the Shares will be issued in conformity with the provisions
of the Plan, the Offering Prospectus,  and the Conversion  Regulations;  and the
terms and provisions of the Shares will conform in all material  respects to the
description  thereof  contained in the  Registration  Statement and the Offering
Prospectus.  Upon the  issuance of the Shares,  good title to the Shares will be
transferred from the Company to the purchasers thereof against payment therefor,
subject to such claims as may be  asserted  against  the  purchasers  thereof by
third party claimants.

         (r) No  approval  of any  regulatory  or  supervisory  or other  public
authority  is required in  connection  with the  execution  and delivery of this
Agreement or the issuance of the Shares, except for the approval of the OTS, the
Commission and any necessary  qualification or registration under the securities
or blue sky laws of the various states in which the Shares are to be offered and
as  may be  required  under  the  regulations-of  the  National  Association  of
Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD").

         (u)  Appropriate  arrangements  have  been made for  placing  the funds
received from subscriptions for Shares in special interest-bearing accounts with
the  Association  until all Shares  are sold and paid for,  with  provision  for

whatever reason or for delivery to the Company if all Shares are sold.

         (v) The Company and the  Association  are in compliance in all material
respects with the applicable financial record keeping and reporting requirements

party or of which any of their  property is the subject  which are not described
in the Registration  Statement and the Offering  Prospectus,  including ordinary
routine litigation  incidental to the business are, considered in the aggregate,

suits,  regulatory  investigations  or  other  proceedings  pending  or,  to the
knowledge of the Company or the Association,  threatened  against the Company or

                  Any  certificates  signed by an officer of the  Company or the

the Association to Capital  Resources as to the matters covered thereby with the
same effect as if such representation and warranty were set forth herein.

                  SECTION 5. Capital  Resources  represents  and warrants to the
Company and the Association that:

                  (a) Capital Resources is a corporation and is validly existing

of the  transactions  contemplated  hereby  and  compliance  with the  terms and
provisions  hereof will not conflict  with, or result in a breach of, any of the
terms, provisions or conditions of, or constitute a default (or event which with
notice  or  lapse  of  time or both  would  constitute  a  default)  under,  the
certificate of incorporation of Capital Resources or any agreement, indenture or
other instrument to which Capital  Resources is a party or by which its property
is bound, or law or regulation by which Capital Resources is bound.

                  (e) Funds  received by Capital  Resources  to purchase  Common
Stock  will be handled  in  accordance  with Rule  15c2-4  under the  Securities

                  SECTION 6.  Covenants  of the  Company  and  Association.  The
Company and the Association  hereby jointly and severally  covenant with Capital
Resources as follows:

                  (a) The Company has filed the Registration  Statement with the
Commission.  The Company  will not, at any time after the date the  Registration
Statement  is  declared  effective,  file any  amendment  or  supplement  to the
Registration  Statement  without  providing  Capital  Resources  and its counsel
reasonable  time to review such amendment or file any amendment or supplement to
which amendment Capital Resources or its counsel shall reasonably object.

                  (b) The Association has filed the Conversion  Application with
the OTS.  The  Association  will not, at any time after the date the  Conversion
Application  is approved,  file any amendment or  supplement  to the  Conversion
Application  without  providing Capital Resources and its counsel an opportunity
to review such  amendment or  supplement  or file any amendment or supplement to
which amendment or supplement  Capital Resources or its counsel shall reasonably
object.

                  (c) The  Company  and the  Association  will  use  their  best
efforts to cause any post-effective  amendment to the Registration  Statement to
be declared effective by the Commission and any post-effective  amendment to the
Conversion  Application  to be  approved  by the OTS and will  immediately  upon
receipt of any  information  concerning  the events listed below notify  Capital
Resources and promptly confirm the notice in writing:  (i) when the Registration
Statement,   as  amended,  has  become  effective;   (ii)  when  the  Conversion
Application,  as amended,  has been approved by the OTS; (iii) of the receipt of
any comments from the Commission,  the OTS or the FDIC or any other governmental
entity with respect to the Conversion or the  transactions  contemplated by this
Agreement;  (iv) of the  request by the  Commission,  the OTS or the FDIC or any
other  governmental  entity for any amendment or supplement to the  Registration
Statement or for additional information;  (v) of the issuance by the Commission,
the OTS, the FDIC or any other governmental  entity of any order or other action
suspending the  Subscription or Public  Offerings or the use of the Registration
Statement or the Offering  Prospectus or any other filing of the Company and the
Association  under the Conversion  Regulations or other  applicable  law, or the
threat of any such action;  (vi) the issuance by the Commission,  the OTS or the
FDIC,  or  any  other  state  authority,   of  any  stop  order  suspending  the
effectiveness  of the  Registration  Statement or of the initiation or threat of
initiation  or  threat  of any  proceedings  for that  purpose;  or (vii) of the
occurrence of any event  mentioned in paragraph  (h) below.  The Company and the
Association  will make every  reasonable  effort to prevent the  issuance by the
Commission,  the OTS or the FDIC, or any other state authority of any such order
and,  if any such  order  shall at any time be  issued,  to obtain  the  lifting
thereof at the earliest possible time.

                  (d) The  Company  and the  Association  will  provide  Capital
Resources and its counsel notice of its intention to file,  and reasonable  time
to  review  prior to  filing  any  amendment  or  supplement  to the  Conversion
Application  or the  Holding  Company  Application  and  will  not file any such
amendment or supplement to which Capital  Resources shall  reasonably  object or
which shall be reasonably disapproved by its

                                     - 10 -

Resources  and to its  counsel  two  conformed  copies of each of the  following
documents, with all exhibits: the Conversion Application and the Holding Company
Application,  as originally  filed and of each amendment or supplement  thereto,
and the Registration  Statement, as originally filed and each amendment thereto.
Further,  the Company and the Association will deliver such additional copies of
the foregoing  documents to counsel for Capital Resources as may be required for
any NASD and blue sky filings. In addition, the Company and the Association will
also  deliver  to  Capital  Resources  such  number of  copies  of the  Offering
Prospectus,  as amended or  supplemented,  as Capital  Resources may  reasonably
request.

                  (f) The Company will furnish to Capital  Resources,  from time
to time during the period when the Offering  Prospectus (or any later prospectus
related to this Offering) is required to be delivered  under the 1933 Act or the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934 Act"), such number of copies of such
prospectus  (as amended or  supplemented)  as Capital  Resources may  reasonably
request  for the  purposes  contemplated  by the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act or the
respective  applicable rules and regulations of the Commission  thereunder.  The
Company authorizes Capital Resources to use the Offering  Prospectus (as amended
or supplemented, if amended or supplemented) for any lawful manner in connection
with the sale of the Shares by Capital Resources.

                  (g)  The  Company  and  the  Association  will  comply  in all
material  respects  with  any  and  all  terms,  conditions,   requirements  and
provisions  with respect to the  Conversion  and the  transactions  contemplated
thereby imposed by the Commission, by applicable state law and regulations,  and
by the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act and the rules and  regulations  of the  Commission
promulgated  under such statutes,  to be complied with prior to or subsequent to
the Closing Date and when the Offering  Prospectus  is required to be delivered,
the Company and the Association will comply in all material  respects,  at their
own expense,  with all requirements imposed upon them by the OTS, the Conversion
Regulations,  the FDIC, the Commission,  by applicable state law and regulations
and by the  1933  Act,  the  1934  Act  and the  rules  and  regulations  of the
Commission promulgated under such statutes,  including, without limitation, Rule
10b-6 under the 1934 Act, in each case as from time to time in force,  so far as
necessary  to permit  the  continuance  of sales or  dealing in shares of Common
Stock  during  such  period in  accordance  with the  provisions  hereof and the
Offering Prospectus.

                  (h) If,  at any time  during  the  period  when  the  Offering
Prospectus  relating  to the  Shares  is  required  to be  delivered,  any event
relating to or affecting the Company or the Association shall occur, as a result
of which it is necessary or  appropriate,  in the reasonable  opinion of counsel
for the  Company and the  Association  or in the  reasonable  opinion of Capital
Resources'  counsel,  to amend  or  supplement  the  Registration  Statement  or
Offering  Prospectus  in order to make the  Registration  Statement  or Offering
Prospectus not misleading in light of the circumstances  existing at the time it
is delivered  to a purchaser,  the Company and the  Association  will,  at their
expense,  forthwith prepare, file with the Commission and the OTS and furnish to
Capital  Resources a reasonable  number of copies of any amendment or amendments
of, or a supplement or supplements  to, the  Registration  Statement or Offering
Prospectus (in form and substance  reasonably  satisfactory to Capital Resources
and its  counsel  after a  reasonable  time  for  review)  which  will  amend or
supplement the Registration  Statement or Offering Prospectus so that as amended
or  supplemented  it will not contain an untrue  statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein,
in light of the  circumstances  existing  at the  time the  Offering  Prospectus
reasonably is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading.  For the purpose of this
Agreement,  the Company and the Association  each will timely furnish to Capital
Resources such information with respect to itself as Capital  Resources may from
time to time request.

                  (i) The Company and the  Association  will take all  necessary
actions, in cooperation with Capital Resources,  and furnish to whomever Capital
Resources may direct, such information as may be required

provided,  however,  that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general

for not less than three years or such shorter period as permitted by the OTS.

                  (m) During the period during which the Company's  common stock
is  registered  under  the 1934 Act or for  three  years  from the date  hereof,
whichever  period is greater,  the Company will furnish to its  stockholders  as
soon as  practicable  after  the  end of  each  fiscal  year  an  annual  report
(including a balance sheet and  statements of income,  stockholders'  equity and
changes in  financial  position or cash flow  statement of the Company as at the
end of and for such  year,  certified  by  independent  public  accountants  and

Company will furnish to Capital  Resources:  (i) a copy of each public report of

required to be made in accordance with the Plan and as described in the Offering

                  (t) The Company  will  register as a savings and loan  holding

businesses in compliance in all material  respects with all  applicable  federal
and state laws, rules, regulations,  decisions, directives and orders, including
all decisions, directives and orders of the Commission, the OTS and the FDIC.

                  (w) The  Association  will not  amend  the Plan of  Conversion
without  Capital  Resources'  prior  written  consent in any manner that, in the
reasonable opinion of Capital  Resources,  would materially and adversely affect
the sale of the Shares or the terms of this  Agreement  except as to comply with
any regulatory requirement.

                  (x) The Company shall advise Capital Resources,  if necessary,
as to the allocation of the Shares in the event of an oversubscription and shall
provide  Capital  Resources  with any  information  necessary to assist  Capital
Resources in allocating the Shares in such event and such  information  shall be
accurate and reliable.

                  (y) The  Company and the  Association  shall  promptly  advise
Capital  Resources in writing of all  relationships  or facts which would render
persons subscribing or purchasing Shares in the Conversion  Associates or Acting
in concert@ within the meaning of the Conversion Regulations,  and shall further
advise  Capital  Resources  of all  appropriate  limitations  on the purchase of

incurred  by Capital  Resources)  (a) all filing fees and  expenses  incurred in
connection  with the  qualification  or registration of the Shares for offer and
sale by the Company under the  securities or blue sky laws of any  jurisdictions
Capital  Resources and the Company may agree upon pursuant to subsection  (i) of
Section 6 above,  including  counsel fees paid or incurred by the  Company,  the
Association  or Capital  Resources  in  connection  with such  qualification  or
registration or exemption from  qualification  or  registration;  (b) all filing
fees in  connection  with all  filings  with the NASD;  (c) any  stock  issue or

                  SECTION  8.  Conditions  to  Capital  Resources'  Obligations.
Capital Resources'  obligations  hereunder,  as to the Shares to be delivered at
the Closing Date,  are subject to the  condition  that all  representations  and

the  Association  shall have  performed  in all  material  respects all of their
obligations  hereunder  to be  performed  on or before  such  dates,  and to the
following further conditions:

                  (a) At the Closing Date, the Company and the Association  will
have  completed  the  conditions  precedent  to,  and shall have  conducted  the
Conversion in all material respects in accordance with, the Plan, the Conversion
Regulations and all other  applicable laws,  regulations,  decisions and orders,
including all terms,  conditions,  requirements and provisions  precedent to the
Conversion imposed upon them by the OTS.

                  (b)  The  Registration  Statement  shall  have  been  declared
effective by the Commission and the Conversion  Application  approved by the OTS
not later than 5:30 p.m.  (eastern time) on the date of this Agreement,  or with

stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have
been issued under the 1933 Act or proceedings  therefore initiated or threatened
by  the  Commission  or any  state  authority,  and no  order  or  other  action

the Company's or Association's knowledge, threatened by the Commission, the OTS,

Fisch, P.C., counsel for the Company and the Association dated the Closing Date,
addressed to Capital Resources and in form and substance to the effect that:

                  (i) The  Company  has been duly  incorporated  and is  validly
existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania.

                  (ii) The Company has  corporate  power and  authority  to own,
lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the
Registration Statement and the Offering Prospectus; and the Company is qualified

                  (iii) The  Association  was a duly  organized and is a validly
existing  federally-chartered savings association in mutual form of organization
and upon the  Conversion  will  become a duly  organized  and  validly  existing
federally-chartered  savings  association in capital stock form of organization,
in both instances  duly  authorized to conduct its business and own its property
as described  in the  Registration  Statement;  and the  Association  is in good
standing  under the laws of the United States and is duly qualified as a foreign
corporation to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in
which its  ownership of property or leasing of  properties or the conduct of its
business  requires such  qualification  unless the failure to be so qualified in
one or more such  jurisdictions  would not have a material adverse effect on the
condition,  financial or  otherwise,  or the  business,  operations or income or
business  prospects of the  Association.  The  activities of the  Association as
described  in the  Offering  Prospectus,  insofar  as they are  material  to the
operations  and  financial  condition of the  Association,  are permitted by the
rules,  regulations and resolutions and practices of the OTS or the FDIC and any
other federal or state authorities.

                  (iv)  The  Association  is a  member  of the  FHLBPB,  and the
deposit  accounts of the  Association  are insured by the FDIC up to the maximum
amount  allowed  under  law  and to the  best  of such  counsel's  knowledge  no
proceedings  for the  termination or revocation of such insurance are pending or
threatened;  and the description of the liquidation  account as set forth in the
Registration  Statement  and the  Offering  Prospectus  under the  caption  "The
Conversion - Effects of Conversion to Stock Form on Depositors  and Borrowers of
the Association - Liquidation Rights in Proposed Converted Institution" has been
reviewed by such counsel and is accurate in all material respects.

                  (v)  Upon  consummation  of the  Conversion,  the  authorized,
issued and outstanding  capital stock of the Company will be as set forth in the
Registration   Statement   and  the  Offering   Prospectus   under  the  caption
"Capitalization,  " and no shares of Common  Stock have been issued prior to the
Closing Date; at the time of the Conversion,  the Shares subscribed for pursuant
to the Offerings will have been duly and validly  authorized  for issuance,  and
when issued and delivered by the Company pursuant to the Plan against payment of
the consideration  calculated as set forth in the Plan, will be duly and validly
issued and fully paid and non-assessable;  and the issuance of the Shares is not
subject to preemptive rights.

                  (vi)  The  issuance  and  sale  of  the  common  stock  of the
Association  to the  Company  have  been  duly  and  validly  authorized  by all
necessary  corporate  action on the part of the Company and the Association and,
upon payment  therefor in accordance  with the terms of the Plan of  Conversion,
will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will be owned
of  record  by the  Company,  free and  clear  of any  mortgage,  pledge,  lien,
encumbrance or claim (legal or equitable).

                  (vii) The  execution  and delivery of this  Agreement  and the
consummation of the transactions  contemplated hereby have been duly and validly
authorized  by  all  necessary  action  on  the  part  of the  Company  and  the
Association; and this Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of the Company
and the  Association,  enforceable  in accordance  with its terms (except as the
enforceability  thereof may be limited by  Association  bankruptcy,  insolvency,
moratorium,  reorganization  or  similar  laws  relating  to  or  affecting  the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally or the rights of creditors of savings
associations  or savings  and loan  holding  companies,  the  accounts  of whose
subsidiaries are insured by the FDIC or by general equity principles, regardless
of whether such  enforceability  is  considered  in a proceeding in equity or at
law, and except to the extent,  if any, that the provisions of Sections 9 and 10
hereof may be unenforceable as against public policy).

                  (viii) The Plan has been duly adopted by the required  vote of
the Directors of the Company and the Association and members of the Association.

         (ix)  Subject  to the  satisfaction  of  the  conditions  to the  OTS's
approval of the Conversion

                                     - 15 -


<PAGE>



and the Company's  application to acquire the Association,  no further approval,
registration,  authorization,  consent or other order of any regulatory  agency,
public board or body is required in  connection  with the execution and delivery
of this  Agreement,  the  issuance  of the  Shares and the  consummation  of the
Conversion,  except as may be required  under the  regulations  of the NASD. The
Conversion has been consummated in all material  respects in accordance with all
applicable provisions of the HOLA, the Conversion Regulations, Federal and State
law and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

                  (x) The Conversion  Application  has been approved by the OTS.
The OTS has issued its order of  approval  under the  savings  and loan  holding
company  provisions  of the HOLA,  and the purchase by the Company of all of the
issued and  outstanding  capital stock of the Association has been authorized by
the OTS and no action has been taken,  or to  counsel's  knowledge is pending or
threatened, to revoke any such authorization or approval.

                  (xi) The  Registration  Statement is effective  under the 1933
Act and no stop order  suspending  the  effectiveness  has been issued under the
1933  Act  or  proceedings   therefor  initiated  or,  to  counsel's  knowledge,
threatened by the Commission.

                  (xii) At the time the  Conversion  Application,  including the
Offering Prospectus contained therein, was approved,  the Conversion Application
including the Offering Prospectus contained therein (as amended or supplemented,
if so amended or supplemented) complied as to form in all material respects with
the  requirements  of all  applicable  federal laws and the rules,  regulations,
decisions  and orders of the OTS (except as to the financial  statements,  other
financial data and stock valuation information included therein as to which such
counsel need express no opinion); to the best of such counsel's knowledge, based
on  conferences  with  management  of and the  independent  accountants  for the
Company and the Association,  and on such investigation of the corporate records
of the Company and the Association as such counsel  conducted in connection with
the preparation of the  Registration  Statement and the Conversion  Application,
all material  documents  and exhibits  required to be filed with the  Conversion
Application (as amended or  supplemented,  if so amended or  supplemented)  have
been so filed.  The  description in the Conversion  Application and the Offering
Prospectus  contained  therein of such documents and exhibits is accurate in all
material  respects and fairly presents the information  required to be shown. To
such counsel's knowledge,  no person has sought to obtain regulatory or judicial
review of the final action of the OTS approving the Conversion Application or in
approving the Holding Company Application.

                  (xiii)  At the time  that the  Registration  Statement  became
effective,  (i) the  Registration  Statement (as amended or  supplemented  if so
amended  or  supplemented)  (other  than  the  financial  statements  and  other
financial and statistical data and stock valuation information included therein,
as to which no opinion  need be  rendered),  complied as to form in all material
respects with the  requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations and
(ii) the Offering  Prospectus  (other than the  financial  statements  and other
financial and  statistical  data and the stock  valuation  information  included
therein,  as to which no opinion  need be  rendered)  complied as to form in all
material  respects  with  the  requirements  of  the  1933  Act,  the  1933  Act
Regulations,  Conversion Regulations and Federal and State law (other than state
blue sky law as to which we express no opinion).  To the best of such  counsel's
knowledge based on the  conferences and document review  specified in item (xii)
above,  all  material  documents  and  exhibits  required  to be filed  with the
Registration   Statement  (as  amended  or   supplemented,   if  so  amended  or
supplemented) have been so filed. The description in the Registration  Statement
and the Offering  Prospectus  of such  documents and exhibits is accurate in all
material respects and fairly presents the information required to be shown.

                  (xiv) During the course of such  counsel's  representation  of
the Company and the  Association,  nothing has come to such counsel's  attention
that caused it to believe that (i) the Company and the Association

                                     - 16 -


<PAGE>



have not conducted the Conversion,  in all material respects, in accordance with
all applicable  requirements  of the Plan and applicable law, and (ii) the Plan,
the  Conversion  Application,   the  Registration  Statement  and  the  Offering
Prospectus  (other  than  the  financial  statements  and  other  financial  and
statistical  data and the stock  valuation  information  included  therein as to
which no opinion need be rendered) do not comply in all material  respects  with
all applicable laws, rules, regulations, decisions and orders including, but not
limited  to, the  Conversion  Regulations,  the HOLA,  the 1933 Act and 1933 Act
Regulations and all other  applicable laws,  regulations,  decisions and orders,
including  all  applicable  terms,   conditions,   requirements  and  provisions
precedent to the  Conversion  imposed upon it by the OTS, the Commission and the
FDIC, if any.

                  (xv) The  terms  and  provisions  of the  Common  Stock of the
Company  conform  to the  description  thereof  contained  in  the  Registration
Statement  and the Offering  Prospectus,  and the form of  certificates  used to
evidence the Shares are in due and proper form.

                  (xvi)  To such  counsel's  knowledge,  there  are no  legal or
governmental  proceedings  pending  or  threatened  which  are  required  to  be
disclosed in the Registration Statement and the Offering Prospectus,  other than
those disclosed therein,  and all pending legal and governmental  proceedings to
which  the  Company  or the  Association  is a party  or of  which  any of their
property is the subject  which are not described in the  Registration  Statement
and the Offering Prospectus, including ordinary routine litigation incidental to
the business, are, considered in the aggregate, not material;  provided that for
this purpose, any litigation or governmental  proceeding is not considered to be
"threatened"  unless  the  potential  litigant  or  governmental  authority  has
manifested  to the  management  of the  Company or the  Association,  or to such
counsel, a present intention to initiate such litigation or proceeding.

                  (xvii)  To  such  counsel's  knowledge,  the  Company  and the
Association  have  obtained  all  licenses,   permits  and  other   governmental
authorizations  required for the conduct of their respective businesses,  except
where the failure to have such  licenses,  permits or  authorizations  would not
have a material adverse effect on the business,  financial condition  operations
or income or business prospects of the Company and the Association, and all such
licenses,  permits and other  governmental  authorizations are in full force and
effect,  and  the  Company  and the  Association  are in all  material  respects
complying therewith.

                  (xviii) To such counsel's  knowledge,  neither the Company nor
the Association is in  contravention  of its certificate of incorporation or its
charter,  respectively,  or its  bylaws  (and  the  Association  will  not be in
contravention  of its charter or bylaws in stock form upon  consummation  of the
Conversion)  or, to such  counsel's  knowledge,  in default or  violation of any
obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any material contract,
indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other instrument to which it
is a party  or by  which  it or its  property  may be  bound  which  default  or
violation  would be material to the business of the Company and the  Association
considered as one  enterprise;  the execution and delivery of this  Agreement by
the Company and the  Association,  the incurring of the  obligations  herein set
forth and the  consummation of the  transactions  contemplated  herein have been
duly  authorized  by all  necessary  corporate  action  of the  Company  and the
Association,  and, to such counsel  default or violation,  will not constitute a
material breach of, or default under, or result in the creation or imposition of
any  material  lien,  charge or  encumbrance  upon any property or assets of the
Company or the  Association  which are material to their business  considered as
one enterprise,  pursuant to any contract, indenture,  mortgage, loan agreement,
note,  lease or other  instrument to which the Company or the  Association  is a
party or by which any of them may be bound,  or to which any of the  property or
assets of the Company or the  Association is subject.  In addition,  such action
will not result in any default or violation of the provisions of the certificate
of  incorporation  or  bylaws  of the  Company  or the  Association  or to  such
counsel's  knowledge,  any  applicable  law,  act,  regulation or order or court
order, writ, injunction or decree.
The charter of the Association in stock form has been approved by the OTS.

<PAGE>



                  (xix)  To  such  counsel's  knowledge,  the  Company  and  the
Association  have  good  and  marketable  title  to all  properties  and  assets
described in the Registration  Statement as owned by them, free and clear of all
liens,  charges,  encumbrances or restrictions,  except such as are described in
the  Registration  Statement  or are not material in relation to the business of
the Company and the Association considered as one enterprise; and to the best of
such  counsel's  knowledge,  all of the leases  and  subleases  material  to the
business  of the  Company  and the  Association  under which the Company and the
Association hold properties,  as described in the Registration Statement, are in
full force and effect.

                  (xx) The Company and the  Association  are not in violation of
any directive from the OTS or the FDIC to make any material change in the method
of conducting  their business and the Company and the Association have conducted
and are conducting their business so as to comply in all material  respects with
all  applicable  statutes  and  regulations   (including,   without  limitation,
regulations, decisions, directives and orders of the OTS and the FDIC).

                  (xxi)  The  information  in  the  Registration  Statement  and
Offering   Prospectus   under  the  captions   "Regulation,"   "Restrictions  on
Acquisitions  of  Stock  and  Related  Takeover   Defensive   Provisions,"  "The
Conversion,"  "Description  of Capital Stock" and the information in response to
Items 7(d)(l), 7(f), 7(g) and 7(i) of the Form PS of the Conversion Regulations,
to the extent that it  constitutes  matters of law,  summaries of legal matters,
documents  or  proceedings,  or legal  conclusions,  has been  reviewed  by such
counsel  and is correct in all  material  respects  (except as to the  financial
statements and other  financial  data included  therein as to which such counsel
need express no opinion).

                  In  rendering  such  opinion,  such counsel may rely (A) as to
matters  involving the  application of laws of any  jurisdiction  other than the
United  States,  to the extent such counsel  deems proper and  specified in such
opinion satisfactory to Capital Resources,  upon the opinion of other counsel of
good  standing  (providing  that such counsel  states that Capital  Resources is
justified in relying upon such  specified  opinion or  opinions),  and (B) as to
matters of fact,  to the extent such counsel deems proper,  on  certificates  of
responsible  officers of the Company and the  Association  and public  officials
(but not on  conclusions  of law which  may be set forth in said  certificates);
provided copies of any such opinion(s) or  certificates  are delivered  pursuant
hereto  or to  Capital  Resources  together  with  the  opinion  to be  rendered
hereunder by special  counsel to the Company and the  Association.  Such counsel
may assume that any agreement is the valid and binding obligation of any parties
to such agreement other than the Company or the Association.

                  (2) The  letter  of  Malizia,  Spidi,  Sloane &  Fisch,  P.C.,
counsel for the  Company and the  Association  addressed  to Capital  Resources,
dated the Closing Date, in form and substance to the effect that:

                  During the  preparation  of the  Conversion  Application,  the
Registration Statement and the Offering Prospectus, such counsel participated in
conferences with management of, and the independent  public  accountants for the
Company  and the  Association.  Based  upon  such  conferences  and a review  of
corporate  records of the Company and the Association as such counsel  conducted
in connection with the preparation of the Registration  Statement and Conversion
Application, nothing has come to their attention that would lead them to believe
that the  Conversion  Application,  the  Registration  Statement,  the  Offering
Prospectus,  or any  amendment or supplement  thereto  (other than the financial
statements  and  other  financial  and  statistical  data  and  stock  valuation
information  included  therein,  as to which such counsel need express no view),
contained an untrue  statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements  therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

                  (3) The  favorable  opinion,  dated as of the Closing Date, of
Steele, Silcox, & Browning, P.C., counsel to Capital Resources,  with respect to
such matters as Capital Resources may reasonably require.  Such opinion may rely
upon the  opinions  of counsel to the  Company  and the  Association,  and as to
matters of fact, upon  certificates of officers and directors of the Company and
the Association  delivered  pursuant hereto or as such counsel shall  reasonably
request.

                  (d) At the Closing Date,  counsel to Capital  Resources  shall
have been  furnished  with such  documents  and opinions as they may  reasonably
require  for the  purpose  of  enabling  them to render  the  opinion  as herein
contemplated  and related  proceedings or in order to evidence the occurrence or
completeness of any of the representations or warranties,  or the fulfillment of
any of the conditions, herein contained.

                  (e) At the Closing  Date,  Capital  Resources  shall receive a
certificate of the Chief Executive  Officer and the Chief  Financial  Officer of
the Company and of the Chief Executive  Officer and Chief  Financial  Officer of
the  Association,  dated as of such Closing Date,  to the effect that:  (i) they
have carefully  examined the Offering  Prospectus and, in their opinion,  at the
time the  Offering  Prospectus  became  authorized  for final use,  the Offering
Prospectus  did not contain an untrue  statement  of a material  fact or omit to
state a material  fact  necessary in order to make the  statements  therein,  in
light of the  circumstances  under which they were made,  not  misleading;  (ii)
since the date the Offering Prospectus became authorized for final use, in their
opinion no event has  occurred  which should have been set forth in an amendment
or  supplement  to the  Offering  Prospectus  which  has not been so set  forth,
including specifically,  but without limitation,  any material adverse change in
the condition,  financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, capital, properties,
business  prospects or business affairs of the Company or the  Association,  and
the conditions set forth in this Section 8 have been satisfied;  (iii) since the
respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration  Statement
and the Offering  Prospectus,  there has been no material  adverse change in the
condition,  financial or  otherwise,  or in the earnings,  capital,  properties,
business  affairs or  business  prospects  of the  Company  or the  Association,
independently,  or  of  the  Company  and  the  Association  considered  as  one
enterprise,  whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business;  (iv) to
the best  knowledge  of such  officers the  representations  and  warranties  in
Section  4 are true  and  correct  with the same  force  and  effect  as  though
expressly  made  at and  as of  the  Closing  Date;  (v)  the  Company  and  the
Association  have complied with all material  agreements and  satisfied,  in all
material  respects at or prior to the Closing Date, all obligations  required to
be met by  such  date  and  will  in  all  material  respects  comply  with  all
obligations  to be  satisfied  by them  after  Conversion;  (vi)  no stop  order
suspending the  effectiveness of the  Registration  Statement has been initiated
or, to the best  knowledge  of the  Company or  Association,  threatened  by the
Commission or any state authority; (vii) no order suspending the Subscription or
Public  Offerings,  the Conversion,  the acquisition of all of the shares of the
Association by the Company or the  effectiveness of the Offering  Prospectus has
been  issued  and to the  best  knowledge  of the  Company  or  Association,  no
proceedings  for that purpose have been  initiated or threatened by the OTS, the
Commission,  the FDIC, or any state  authority;  and (viii) to the best of their
knowledge,  no person has sought to obtain review of the final action of the OTS
approving the Plan.

                  (f) Prior to and at the Closing  Date:  (i) in the  reasonable
opinion of Capital  Resources,  there shall have been no material adverse change
in the condition,  financial or otherwise,  or in the earnings,  or the business
affairs or business  prospects of the Company or the Association  independently,
or of the Company or the  Association,  considered as one enterprise,  since the
latest dates as of which such condition is set forth in the Offering Prospectus,
except  as  referred  to  therein;  (ii)  there  shall  have  been  no  material
transaction  entered into by the Company or the Association from the latest date
as of which the  financial  condition of the Company or the  Association  is set
forth  in  the  Offering  Prospectus  other  than  transactions  referred  to or
contemplated  therein;  (iii)  the  Company  or the  Association  shall not have
received  from the OTS or the FDIC any  direction  (oral or written) to make any
material change in the method of conducting their business with which it has not
complied  (which  direction,  if any,  shall  have  been  disclosed  to  Capital
Resources) and which would reasonably be expected to have a material and adverse
effect on the business, operations or financial condition or income of

                                     - 19 -

the Company or the  Association  taken as a whole;  (iv) neither the Company nor
the  Association  shall have been in default  (nor shall an event have  occurred
which,  with notice or lapse of time or both,  would constitute a default) under
any  provision  of  and  agreement  or  instrument   relating  to  any  material
outstanding  indebtedness;  (v) no  action,  suit or  proceedings,  at law or in
equity  or  before  or by any  federal  or  state  commission,  board  or  other
administrative  agency, shall be pending, or, to the knowledge of the Company or
the Association,  threatened against the Company or the Association or affecting
any of their properties wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding would
reasonably  be expected to have a material and adverse  effect on the  business,
operations,  financial  condition  or income of the Company or the  Association,
taken as a whole;  and (vi) the Shares have been  qualified  or  registered  for

                  (g) Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Capital
Resources shall receive a letter from GEBA,  dated the date hereof and addressed
to Capital  Resources:  (i) confirming that GEBA is a firm of independent public
accountants  within the meaning of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations and
12 C.F.R. ss. 571.2(c)(3) and no information concerning its relationship with or
interests in the Company and the  Association is required to be disclosed in the
Offering Prospectus by the Conversion Regulations or Item 10 of the Registration
Statement, and stating in effect that in GEBA's opinion the financial statements
of the Association as are included in the Offering  Prospectus comply as to form
in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the 1933
Act,  the  1934 Act and the  related  published  rules  and  regulations  of the
Commission  thereunder and the  Conversion  Regulations  and generally  accepted
accounting  principles;  (ii)  stating in effect  that,  on the basis of certain
agreed  upon  procedures  (but  not an  audit  examination  in  accordance  with
generally  accepted  auditing  standards)  consisting of a reading of the latest
available unaudited interim financial  statements of the Association prepared by
the  Association,  a reading  of the  minutes  of the  meetings  of the Board of
Directors and members of the Association and consultations  with officers of the
Association  responsible for financial and accounting  matters,  nothing came to
their  attention  which caused them to believe that:  (A) during the period from
the date of the latest unaudited  financial  statements included in the Offering
Prospectus  to [ , 1998],  there has been (1) any increase in the long term debt
of the Association or (2) any increase in non-performing  assets  (consisting of
accruing  loans  past due 90 days or more,  non-accruing  loans  and  foreclosed
assets) or (3) any decrease in the allowance for loan losses or (4) any decrease
in total equity or (5) a decrease in net income when compared to the like period
in the preceding year or (6) any change in total assets of the Association in an
amount  from  [December  31,  1997 to , 1998]  date  greater  than  [$2,000,000]
(excluding  the proceeds of stock  subscriptions);  and (iii)  stating  that, in
addition to the audit  examination  referred  to in its opinion  included in the
Offering  Prospectus and the performance of the procedures referred to in clause
(ii) of this  subsection  (g), they have  compared  with the general  accounting
records of the Company and/or the Association, as applicable,  which are subject
to the internal  controls of the Company and/or the Association,  as applicable,
accounting system and other data prepared by the Company and/or the Association,
as applicable, directly from such accounting records, to the extent specified in
such  letter,  such  amounts  and/or  percentages  set  forth  in  the  Offering
Prospectus as Capital Resources may reasonably request; and they have found such
amounts and percentages to be in agreement therewith (subject to rounding).
    

                  (h) At the Closing  Date,  Capital  Resources  shall receive a
letter  from GEBA,  dated the  Closing  Date,  addressed  to Capital  Resources,
confirming  the  statements  made by its  letter  delivered  by it  pursuant  to
subsection (g) of this Section 8, except that the  "specified  date" referred to
in clause (ii)(B) thereof to be a date specified in such letter, which shall not
be more than three business days prior to the Closing Date.

                  (i) The Company and the  Association  shall not have sustained
since  the date of the  latest  audited  financial  statements  included  in the
Registration Statement and Offering Prospectus any loss or interference with its
business from fire, explosion,  flood or other calamity,  whether or not covered
by insurance,  or from any labor dispute or court or governmental  action, order
or decree, otherwise than as set forth or

                                     - 20 -


<PAGE>



contemplated in the Registration  Statement and Offering  Prospectus,  and since
the  respective  dates as of  which  information  is  given in the  Registration
Statement and Offering Prospectus, there shall not have been any material change
in the long term debt of the Company or the Association other than debt incurred
in relation to the purchase of Shares by the  Company's  Tax-Qualified  Employee
Plans, or any change, or any development  involving a prospective  change, in or
affecting the general affairs,  management,  financial  position,  stockholders'
equity or results of  operations  of the Company or the  Association,  otherwise
than as set forth or  contemplated  in the  Registration  Statement and Offering
Prospectus, the effect of which, in any such case described above, is in Capital
Resources'  reasonable judgment  sufficiently material and adverse as to make it
impracticable  or  inadvisable  to  proceed  with  the  Subscription  or  Public
Offerings  or  the  delivery  of  the  Shares  on the  terms  and in the  manner
contemplated in the Offering Prospectus.

                  (j) At or prior to the Closing Date,  Capital  Resources shall
receive  (i) a copy  of the  letter  from  the  OTS  authorizing  the use of the
Offering Prospectus,  (ii) a copy of the order from the Commission declaring the
Registration  Statement  effective,  (iii) a copy of a certificate  from the OTS
evidencing  the good  standing of the  Association,  (iv)  certificates  of good
standing from the  Commonwealth of Pennsylvania  evidencing the good standing of
the Company and evidencing  that the Company is duly qualified to do business in
Pennsylvania  and (v) a copy of the letter from the OTS  approving the Company's
Holding Company Application.

                  (k) As soon as  available  after  the  Closing  Date,  Capital
Resources shall receive a certified copy of the Association's stock charter.

                  (1)  Subsequent  to the  date  hereof,  there  shall  not have
occurred any of the  following:  (i) a suspension  or  limitation  in trading in
securities  generally on the New York Stock  Exchange or American Stock Exchange
or in the over-the-counter  market, or quotations halted generally on the NASDAQ
National  Market,  or minimum or maximum  prices for  trading  being  fixed,  or
maximum  ranges for  prices  for  securities  being  required  by either of such
exchanges or the NASD or by order of the  Commission  or any other  governmental
authority;   (ii)  a  general   moratorium  on  the   operations  of  commercial
Associations  or  federal  savings  Associations  or general  moratorium  on the
withdrawal  of  deposits  from   commercial   Associations  or  federal  savings
Associations  declared  by  either  federal  or  state  authorities;  (iii)  the
engagement  by the  United  States in  hostilities  which have  resulted  in the
declaration,  on or after the date  hereof,  of a national  emergency or war; or
(iv) a  material  decline  in the price of equity or debt  securities  if, as to
clauses (iii) or (iv),  the effect of such  hostilities  or decline,  in Capital
Resources' reasonable judgment, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed
with the  Subscription or Public  Offerings or the delivery of the Shares on the
terms and in the  manner  contemplated  in the  Registration  Statement  and the
Offering Prospectus.

                  All such opinions, certifications, letters and documents shall
be in compliance with the provisions  hereof only if they are, in the reasonable
opinion of Capital Resources and its counsel,  satisfactory to Capital Resources
and its  counsel.  Any  certificates  signed by an  officer or  director  of the
Company or the  Association  and  delivered to Capital  Resources or its counsel
shall be deemed a representation  and warranty by the Company or the Association
to Capital Resources as to the statements made therein.

                  If any of the  conditions  specified in this Section shall not
have been fulfilled when and as required by this  Agreement,  this Agreement and
all of Capital  Resources'  obligations  hereunder  may be  canceled  by Capital
Resources by notifying the  Association  of such  cancellation  in writing or by
telegram at any time at or prior to the Closing Date, and any such  cancellation
shall be without  liability  of any party to any other party except as otherwise
provided in Sections 2, 7, 9 and 10 hereof.  Notwithstanding  the above, if this
Agreement is canceled  pursuant to this  paragraph,  Capital  Resources  will be
entitled to retain any  compensation  already  received for consulting  services
prior to the closing (including reimbursed expenses as provided herein), and the

                                     - 21 -


<PAGE>



Company and the  Association  jointly and severally  agree to reimburse  Capital
Resources for all out-of-pocket expenses, (including without limitation the fees
and  expenses  of Capital  Resources'  counsel)  reasonably  incurred by Capital
Resources and Capital Resources' counsel at its normal rates, in connection with
the preparation of the Registration  Statement and the Offering Prospectus,  and
in contemplation of the proposed  Subscription or Public Offerings to the extent
provided for in Sections 2 and 7 hereof.

                  SECTION 9.  Indemnification.

                  (a) The Company  and the  Association  jointly  and  severally
agree to indemnify and hold harmless Capital Resources, its officers, directors,
agents and  employees  and each person,  if any, who controls or is under common
control with Capital  Resources within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act
or Section 20(a) of the 1934 Act,  against any and all loss,  liability,  claim,
damage or expense whatsoever (including but not limited to settlement expenses),
joint or several,  that Capital  Resources or any of them may suffer or to which

(including fees and  disbursements of counsel)  incurred by Capital Resources or
any of them  in  connection  with  investigating,  preparing  or  defending  any
actions,  proceedings or claims (whether  commenced or threatened) to the extent
such losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities  or actions (i) arise out of or are
based upon any untrue  statement or alleged untrue  statement of a material fact
contained  in  the  Registration  Statement  (or  any  amendment  or  supplement
thereto),  preliminary  or  final  Offering  Prospectus  (or  any  amendment  or
supplement thereto), the Conversion Application (including any document required
to be furnished  therewith),  or any Blue Sky application or other instrument or
document of the Company or the  Association  or based upon  written  information
supplied by the Company or the Association filed in any state or jurisdiction to
register  or  qualify  any  or  all of the  Shares  or the  subscription  rights
applicable  thereto under the securities laws thereof  (collectively,  the "Blue
Sky  Application"),  or any application or other document,  advertisement,  oral
statement,  or communication ("Sales Information") prepared, made or executed by
or on behalf of the  Company  with its  consent  or based  upon  written or oral
information furnished by or on behalf of the Company or the Association, whether
or not filed in any  jurisdiction  in order to  qualify or  register  the Shares
under the  securities  laws  thereof;  (ii)  arise out of or are based  upon the
omission  or alleged  omission  to state in any of the  foregoing  documents  or
information,  a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the  statements  therein,  in light of the  circumstances  under which they were
made, not  misleading;  or, (iii) arise from any theory of liability  whatsoever
relating to or arising  from or based upon the  Registration  Statement  (or any
amendment or supplement  thereto),  preliminary or final Offering Prospectus (or
any amendment or supplement thereto),  the Conversion Application (including any
document required to be furnished therewith),  any Blue Sky Application or Sales
Information  or  other   documentation   distributed  in  connection   with  the

the  Registration  Statement  (or any  amendment  or  supplement  thereto),  the
Conversion   Application  (including  any  document  required  to  be  furnished
therewith)  , any Blue  Sky  Application,  the  preliminary  or  final  Offering
Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement  thereto),  or Sales Information made
in reliance upon and in  conformity  with written  information  furnished to the
Company or the  Association by Capital  Resources  regarding  Capital  Resources
expressly for use under the captions "The  Conversion - Marketing  Arrangements"
or "Public  Offering and Direct Community  Offering" in the Offering  Prospectus
nor is indemnification  required for material oral misstatements made by Capital
Resources,  which are not based upon information  provided by the Association or

Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto),  preliminary or

and the

                                     - 22 -


<PAGE>



Association,  their directors and officers,  agents,  servants and employees and
each person,  if any, who  controls  the Company or the  Association  within the
meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section  20(a) of the 1934 Act  against
any and all loss, liability,  claim, damage or expense whatsoever (including but
not limited to  settlement  expenses),  joint or several  which they,  or any of
them,  may suffer or to which they, or any of them, may become subject under all
applicable  federal and state laws or otherwise,  and to promptly  reimburse the
Company,  the  Association  and any such  persons  upon  written  demand for any
expenses  (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by them, or any
of them, in connection with  investigating,  preparing or defending any actions,
proceedings  or claims  (whether  commenced  or  threatened)  to the extent such
losses, claims,  damages,  liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
the  Registration  Statement (or any amendment of  supplement  thereto),  or the
preliminary  or  final  Offering  Prospectus  (or any  amendment  or  supplement
thereto),  or the Conversion  Application  or any Blue Sky  Application or Sales
Information  or are based upon the omission or alleged  omission to state in any
of the  foregoing  documents a material  fact  required to be stated  therein or
necessary  to make the  statements  therein,  in the light of the  circumstances
under which they were made,  not  misleading;  provided,  however,  that Capital
Resources  obligations  under this  Section 9(b) shall exist only if and only to
the extent that such untrue  statement or alleged untrue  statement was made in,
or  such  material  fact  or  alleged   material  fact  was  omitted  from,  the
Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto), the preliminary
or final Offering  Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement  thereto),  or the
Conversion  Application,  any  Blue Sky  Application  or  Sales  Information  in
reliance  upon and in  conformity  with  written  information  furnished  to the
Company or the  Association by Capital  Resources  regarding  Capital  Resources
expressly for use under the caption "The Conversion - Marketing Arrangements" or
"Public Offering and Direct Community Offering" in the Offering Prospectus or in
the event of oral misstatements  made by Capital Resources,  which are not based
upon information provided by the Association or the Company orally or in writing
or  based  on  information  contained  in the  Registration  Statement  (or  any
amendment or supplement  thereto),  preliminary or final Offering Prospectus (or
any amendment or supplement thereto), the Conversion  Application,  any Blue Sky
Application or Sales Information  distributed in connection with the Conversion.
In addition, Capital Resources will not be liable under the foregoing provisions
to the extent that the loss,  claim,  damage,  liability or actions is expressly
found in a final judgment by a court of competent  jurisdiction to have resulted
from the Association's or the Company's bad faith or gross negligence.

                  (c) Each indemnified party shall give prompt written notice to
each indemnifying party of any action,  proceeding,  claim (whether commenced or
threatened),  or suit instituted against it in respect of which indemnity may be
sought  hereunder,  but  failure to so notify an  indemnifying  party  shall not
relieve it from any liability  which it may have on account of this Section 9 or
otherwise.  An  indemnifying  party may  participate  at its own  expense in the
defense of such action.  In addition,  if it so elects within a reasonable  time
after  receipt of such notice,  an  indemnifying  party,  jointly with any other
indemnifying  parties  receiving such notice,  may assume defense of such action
with  counsel  chosen by it and  approved by the  indemnified  parties  that are
defendants in such action,  unless such indemnified parties reasonably object to
such assumption on the ground that there may be legal defenses available to them
that are different from or in addition to those  available to such  indemnifying
party.  If an  indemnifying  party  assumes  the  defense  of such  action,  the
indemnifying  parties  shall not be liable for any fees and  expenses of counsel
for the indemnified  parties incurred thereafter in connection with such action,
proceeding or claim,  other than reasonable costs of investigation.  In no event
shall the indemnifying  parties be liable for the fees and expenses of more than
one  separate  firm of  attorneys  (and any special  counsel  that said firm may
retain)  for  all  indemnified  parties  in  connection  with  any  one  action,
proceeding or claim or separate but similar or related  actions,  proceedings or
claims in the same jurisdiction  arising out of the same general  allegations or
circumstances.

                  (d) The agreements  contained in this Section 9 and in Section
10  hereof  and  the  representations  and  warranties  of the  Company  and the
Association set forth in this Agreement shall remain

                                     - 23 -


<PAGE>



operative and in full force and effect regardless of: (i) any investigation made
by or on behalf of Capital  Resources or its officers,  directors or controlling
persons,  agents  or  employees  or  by or on  behalf  of  the  Company  or  the
Association  or any  officers,  directors  or  controlling  persons,  agents  or
employees of the Company or the Association or any controlling person,  director
or officer of the  Company or the  Association;  (ii)  delivery  of and  payment
hereunder for the Shares; or (iii) any termination of this Agreement.

                  (e) No  indemnification  by the Association under Section 9(a)
hereof nor  contribution  under Section 10 hereof shall be effective if the same
shall be deemed to be in violation of any law, rule or regulation  applicable to
the  Association  including,  without  limitation,  Section  23A of the  Federal
Reserve Act. If the  indemnification  or  contribution by the Association is not
effective  pursuant  to the  preceding  sentence,  then the  indemnification  by
Capital  Resources  pursuant to Section 9(b) shall be given only to the Company,
its  directors  and  officers,  agents,  servants and  employees  and not to the
Association,  its directors and officers, agents, servants and employees and the
Association  shall not be entitled to any  contribution  from Capital  Resources
pursuant to Section 10.

                  SECTION  10.  Contribution.  In order to provide  for just and
equitable  contribution in circumstances in which the  indemnification  provided
for in  Section 9 is due in  accordance  with its  terms  but is for any  reason
unavailable  as a result of  Section  9(e) or held by a court to be  unavailable
from the  Company,  the  Association  or Capital  Resources,  the  Company,  the
Association  and Capital  Resources  shall  contribute to the aggregate  losses,
claims,  damages and liabilities  (including any investigation,  legal and other
expenses  incurred in connection  with, and any amount paid in settlement of any
action,  suit or  proceeding  of any claims  asserted,  but after  deducting any
contribution  received by the Company or the  Association  or Capital  Resources
from  persons  other than the other  party  thereto,  who may also be liable for
contribution)  in such  proportion so that Capital  Resources is responsible for
that  portion  represented  by the fees paid to Capital  Resources  pursuant  to
Section 2 of this Agreement (not including expenses) bears to the gross proceeds
received  by the  Company  from the sale of the Shares in the  Offering  and the
Company and the Association  shall be responsible for the balance.  If, however,
the  allocation  provided  above is not  permitted by  applicable  law or if the
indemnified party failed to give the notice required under Section 9 above, then
each indemnifying  party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such
indemnified  party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such
relative  fault of the Company and the  Association  on the one hand and Capital
Resources on the other in  connection  with the  statements  or omissions  which
resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions, proceedings
or claims in respect  thereof),  but also the relative  benefits received by the
Company and Association on the one hand and Capital  Resources on the other from
the  offering  as well  as any  other  relevant  equitable  considerations.  The
relative  benefits  received by the Company and the  Association on the one hand
and Capital  Resources on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion
as the total  gross  proceeds  from the  Offering  (before  deducting  expenses)
received by the Company bear to the total fees (not including expenses) received
by Capital  Resources.  The relative  fault shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or the  omission or alleged  omission to state a material  fact  relates to
information  supplied by the Company  and/or the  Association on the one hand or
Capital  Resources on the other and the parties'  relative  intent,  good faith,
knowledge,  access to  information  and  opportunity  to correct or prevent such
statement or omission.  The Company, the Association and Capital Resources agree
that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section
10 were  determined by pro rata  allocation or by any other method of allocation
which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in
this Section 10. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified  party as a result
of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action,  proceedings or claims
in  respect  thereof)  referred  to above in this  Section 10 shall be deemed to
include any legal or other  expenses  reasonably  incurred  by such  indemnified
party in connection with investigating or defending any such action,  proceeding
or claim. It is expressly agreed that Capital  Resources shall not be liable for
any loss,  liability,  claim, damage or expense or be required to contribute any
amount which in the aggregate  exceeds the amount paid  (excluding  reimbursable
expenses) to Capital Resources under this Agreement. It is

                                     - 24 -


<PAGE>



understood that the above-stated  limitation on Capital Resources'  liability is
essential  to Capital  Resources  and that  Capital  Resources  relied upon such
limitation and would not have entered into this Agreement if such limitation had
not been agreed to by the parties to this  Agreement.  No person found guilty of
any  fraudulent  misrepresentation  (within the meaning of Section  11(f) of the
1933 Act) shall be  entitled to  contribution  from any person who was not found
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.  The obligations of the Company and
the  Association  under this Section 10 and under Section 9 shall be in addition
to any liability  which the Company and the  Association may otherwise have. For
purposes of this Section 10, each of Capital  Resources',  the  Company's or the
Association's  officers  and  directors  and each  person,  if any, who controls
Capital  Resources or the Company or the  Association  within the meaning of the
1933 Act and the 1934 Act  shall  have the same  rights to  contribution  as the
Company and the Association. Any party entitled to contribution,  promptly after
receipt of notice of  commencement  of any  action,  suit,  claim or  proceeding
against  such  party in respect  of which a claim for  contribution  may be made
against  another  party under this  Section 10, will notify such party from whom
contribution  may be sought,  but the omission to so notify such party shall not
relieve the party from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation
it may have  hereunder or otherwise  than under this Section 10. This Section 10
is  subject to and  limited by the  provisions  of  Section  23A of the  Federal
Reserve Act, as applicable.

                  SECTION  11.  Survival  of  Agreements,   Representations  and

Capital Resources and the representations and warranties and other statements of
the Company and the  Association set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement
shall  remain  in full  force  and  effect,  regardless  of any  termination  or
cancellation  of this  Agreement  or any  investigation  made by or on behalf of
Capital  Resources,  the Company,  the  Association  or any  indemnified  person
referred to in Section 9 hereof,  and shall  survive the issuance of the Shares,
and any legal  representative,  successor  or assign of Capital  Resources,  the
Association, and any such indemnified person shall be entitled to the benefit of
the respective agreements, indemnities, warranties and representations.

                  SECTION 12. Termination. Capital Resources may terminate  this
Agreement by giving the notice indicated below in this Section at any time after

within the period  specified,  and in accordance with the provisions of the Plan
or as required by the Conversion  Regulations and applicable law, this Agreement
shall terminate upon refund by the Association to each person who has subscribed
for or ordered any of the Shares the full amount which it may have received from
such person, together with interest as provided in the Offering Prospectus,  and
no party to this  Agreement  shall have any  obligation to the other  hereunder,
except  for  payment  by the  Association  and/or  the  Company  as set forth in
Sections 2, 7, 9 and 10 hereof.

                  (b) If any of the conditions  specified in Section 8 shall not

Date,  or waived in writing  by Capital  Resources,  this  Agreement  and all of
Capital Resources  obligations hereunder may be canceled by Capital Resources by
notifying the Association of such  cancellation in writing or by telegram at any
time at or prior to the  Closing  Date,  and,  any  such  cancellation  shall be
without  liability of any party to any other party except as otherwise  provided
in Sections 2, 7, 9 and 10 hereof.

                  (c) If Capital Resources elects to terminate this Agreement as
provided in this section,  the Company and the Association  shall be notified as
provided in Section 13 hereof,  promptly by Capital  Resources  by  telephone or

         Re:      Registration Statement Under the Securities Act of 1933
                  -------------------------------------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     This opinion is rendered in connection with the  Registration  Statement on
Form SB-2 to be filed with the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  under the
Securities Act of 1933 relating to the offer and sale of up to 238,050 shares of
common  stock,  par value  $0.10 per share (the  "Common  Stock"),  of  Carnegie
Financial Corporation (the "Company"),  including shares to be issued to certain
employee  benefit plans of the Company and its  subsidiary.  The Common Stock is
proposed  to be  issued  pursuant  to the Plan of  Conversion  (the  "Plan")  of
Carnegie  Savings  Bank,  (the "Savings  Bank") in  connection  with the Savings
Bank's  conversion  from a mutual savings bank form of  organization  to a stock
savings  bank  form  of  organization  and  reorganization  into a  wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company (the "Conversion").  As special counsel to the Savings
Bank and the Company, we have reviewed the corporate proceedings relating to the
Plan  and the  Conversion  and  such  other  legal  matters  as we  have  deemed
appropriate for the purpose of rendering this opinion.

     Based on the  foregoing,  we are of the  opinion  that the shares of Common
Stock of the Company covered by the aforesaid  Registration Statement will, when
issued in accordance  with the terms of the Plan against full payment  therefor,
be validly issued, fully paid, and non- assessable shares of Common Stock of the
Company.

     We assume no  obligation  to advise you of changes  that may  hereafter  be
brought to our attention.

     Re:  Federal  Income Tax Opinion  Relating to the  Proposed  Conversion  of
          Carnegie Savings Bank from a  Federally-Chartered  Mutual Savings Bank
          to a  Federally-Chartered  Stock  Savings  Bank  Pursuant  to  Section
          368(a)(1)(F) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
          -------------------------------------------------------------

Members of the Board:

         In accordance with your request,  set forth  hereinbelow is the opinion
of this firm relating to the material  federal  income tax  consequences  of the
proposed  conversion (the  "Conversion")  of Carnegie  Savings Bank (the "Bank")
from a federally-chartered mutual savings bank to a federally-chartered  capital
stock savings bank (the "Stock Bank"), and formation of a parent holding company
(the "Holding Company") which will simultaneously acquire all of the outstanding
stock of Stock Bank. As proposed, the Conversion will be implemented pursuant to
Section  368(a)(1)(F)  of the  Internal  Revenue  Code of 1986,  as amended (the
"Code").

         We  have  examined  such  corporate  records,  certificates  and  other
documents as we have considered  necessary or appropriate  for this opinion.  In
such examination,  we have accepted,  and have not independently  verified,  the
authenticity  of all original  documents,  the  accuracy of all copies,  and the
genuineness of all signatures.  Further, the capitalized terms which are used in
this  opinion  and are not  expressly  defined  herein  shall  have the  meaning
ascribed to them in the Bank's Plan of Conversion  adopted on December 15, 1997,
as amended (the "Plan of Conversion").

                               STATEMENT OF FACTS
                               ------------------

         Based  solely  upon  our  review  of  such  documents,  and  upon  such
information  as the Bank has  provided  to us  (which we have not  attempted  to
verify in any respect), and in reliance upon such documents and information,  we
understand the relevant facts with respect to the Conversion to be as follows:



<PAGE>
MALIZIA, SPIDI, SLOANE & FISCH, P.C.

Board of Directors

Page 2

         The Bank is a  federally-chartered  mutual  savings  bank.  As a mutual
savings bank, the Bank has no authorized  capital stock.  Instead,  the Bank, in
mutual form, has a unique equity  structure.  A savings depositor of the Bank is
entitled to interest  income on his or her account  balance as declared and paid
by the Bank. A savings  depositor has no right to a distribution of any earnings
of the Bank,  but rather these  amounts  become  retained  earnings of the Bank.
However,  a savings depositor has a right to share pro rata, with respect to the
withdrawal value of his or her respective  savings  account,  in any liquidation
proceeds distributed in the event the Bank is ever liquidated.  Voting rights in
the Bank are held by its  members.  Each member is entitled to cast one vote for
each $100 or a fraction  thereof of the withdrawal value of the member's account
and each  borrower  member is  entitled to one vote.  Each  member  shall have a
maximum of 1,000 votes. All of the interests held by a savings  depositor in the
Bank cease when such depositor closes his or her account(s) with the Bank.

         The Board of Directors of the Bank has decided that in order to promote
the growth and expansion of the Bank through the raising of additional  capital,
it would be advantageous for the Bank to: (i) convert from a federally-chartered
mutual  savings bank to a  federally-chartered  capital stock savings bank,  and
(ii) arrange for the Holding Company to simultaneously  acquire all of the Stock
Bank's  stock.  The Bank's Board of Directors  has  determined  that in order to
provide  greater  flexibility  in  future  operations  of  the  Bank,  including
diversification of business  opportunities and acquisitions,  it is advantageous
to have the Stock Bank's stock held by the Holding Company. Pursuant to the Plan
of Conversion,  the Bank's  certificate of  incorporation to operate as a mutual
savings  bank will be amended and a new  certificate  of  incorporation  will be
acquired  to  allow  it  to   continue   its   operations   in  the  form  of  a
federally-chartered  capital stock savings bank. The Plan of Conversion provides
for the  conversion of the Bank from  mutual-to-stock  form, and an appraisal of
the pro forma market  value of the stock of the Stock Bank,  which will be owned
solely by the Holding  Company.  The Plan of Conversion  must be approved by the
Office of Thrift Supervision  ("OTS"),  and by an affirmative vote of at least a
majority  of the total  votes  eligible  to be cast at a special  meeting of the
Bank's members called to vote on the Plan of Conversion.

         The Holding Company is being formed under the laws of the  Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania for the purpose of the proposed transaction described herein, to
engage in business as a savings and loan holding  company and to hold all of the
stock of the Stock Bank.  The Holding  Company  will issue  shares of its voting
common stock ("Holding  Company  Stock") upon  completion of the Conversion,  as
described  below,  to persons  purchasing  such  shares  through a  Subscription
Offering and to the general public in a Public Offering.

         Following  appropriate  regulatory  approval,  the  Plan of  Conversion
provides  for the  issuance  of  shares of  Holding  Company  Stock to  eligible
depositors and borrowers of the Bank and others as described below and set forth
in the Plan of Conversion.  The aggregate  purchase price at which all shares of
Holding Company Stock will be offered and sold pursuant to the


<PAGE>
MALIZIA, SPIDI, SLOANE & FISCH, P.C.


Board of Directors
Carnegie Savings Bank
May 5, 1998
Page 3

Plan of Conversion  will be equal to the estimated pro forma market value of the
Bank at the  time of the  Conversion  as held  as a  subsidiary  of the  Holding
Company.  The  estimated  pro  forma  market  value  will  be  determined  by an
independent  appraiser.  Pursuant to the Plan of Conversion,  all such shares of
Holding Company Stock will be issued and sold at a uniform price per share.  The
Conversion  and the sale of newly issued shares of the Stock Bank's stock to the
Holding Company will be deemed  effective  concurrently  with the closing of the
sale of Holding Company Stock.

         As required by OTS regulations, shares of Holding Company Stock will be
offered  pursuant  to  non-transferable  subscription  rights  on the  basis  of
preference  categories.  All shares must be sold and to the extent that  Holding
Company Stock is available,  no subscriber will be allowed to purchase less than
25 shares of Holding Company Stock,  provided that the aggregate  purchase price
does not exceed $500. The Bank has  established  various  preference  categories
under  which  shares of  Holding  Company  Stock may be  purchased  and a public
offering  category  for the sale of shares not  purchased  under the  preference
categories.  If the third preference  category is determined to be inappropriate
to  the  Conversion,  then  there  will  only  be  three  preference  categories
consisting of the first,  second,  and fourth  preference  categories  set forth
below, and all references herein to Supplemental Eligible Account Holder and the
Supplemental Eligibility Record Date shall not be applicable to the Conversion.

         The first  preference  category  is  reserved  for the Bank's  Eligible
Account Holders. The Plan of Conversion defines "Eligible Account Holder" as any
person holding a Qualifying Deposit.  The Plan of Conversion defines "Qualifying
Deposit" as the aggregate balance of all savings accounts of an Eligible Account
Holder in the Bank at the close of business on November  30,  1996,  which is at
least equal to $50.00.  If a savings  account holder of the Bank qualifies as an
Eligible   Account   Holder,   he  or  she  will   receive,   without   payment,
non-transferable  subscription  rights to purchase  Holding  Company Stock.  The
number of shares that each Eligible  Account Holder may subscribe to is equal to
the greater of (a) the maximum  purchase  limitation  established for the Public
Offering;  (b) one tenth of one percent of the total offering of shares;  or (c)
fifteen times the product  (rounded  down to the next whole number)  obtained by
multiplying  the total number of shares of Holding Company Stock 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 the
Qualifying   Deposits  of  all  Eligible  Account   Holders.   If  there  is  an
oversubscription,  shares will be allocated among  subscribing  Eligible Account
Holders so as to permit each account holder, to the extent possible, to purchase
a number of shares  sufficient to make his or her total  allocation equal to 100
shares.  Any shares not then allocated  shall be allocated among the subscribing
Eligible Account Holders on an equitable basis,  related to the amounts of their
respective  deposits  as compared  to the total  deposits  of  Eligible  Account
Holders on the Eligibility Record Date. Non-transferable  subscription rights to
purchase  Holding  Company Stock  received by officers and directors of the Bank
and their  associates  based on their increased  deposits in the Bank in the one
year period

preceding  the  Eligibility  Record  Date  shall be  subordinated  to all  other
subscriptions  involving the exercise of nontransferable  subscription rights to
purchase shares of Holding Company Stock under the first preference category.

         The second preference  category is reserved for tax-qualified  employee
stock  benefit  plans of the Stock Bank.  The Plan of  Conversion  defines  "tax
qualified  employee stock benefit plans" as any defined  benefit plan or defined
contribution  plan, such as an employee stock ownership plan,  stock bonus plan,
profit-sharing  plan or other  plan,  which,  with its  related  trust meets the
requirements to be "qualified"  under Section 401 of the Code. Under the Plan of
Conversion,  the Stock Bank's  tax-qualified  employee  stock  benefit plans may
subscribe for up to 10% of the shares of Holding  Company Stock to be offered in
the Conversion.

         The third preference  category is reserved for the Bank's  Supplemental
Eligible Account Holders. The Plan of Conversion defines "Supplemental  Eligible
Account  Holder" as any person (other than officers or directors of the Bank and
their associates)  holding a deposit in the Bank on the last day of the calendar
quarter   preceding   the  approval  of  the  Plan  of  Conversion  by  the  OTS
("Supplemental  Eligibility Record Date").  This third preference  category will
only be used in the  event  that the  Eligibility  Record  Date is more  than 15
months prior to the date of the latest amendment to the Application for Approval
of  Conversion  on Form AC  filed  prior  to  approval  by the  OTS.  The  third
preference category provides that each Supplemental Eligible Account Holder will
receive,  without  payment,  nontransferable  subscription  rights  to  purchase
Holding  Company  Stock to the extent that such shares of Holding  Company Stock
are available after satisfying  subscriptions for shares in the first and second
preference  categories  above.  The  number of  shares  to which a  Supplemental
Eligible  Account  Holder may  subscribe  to is the  greater of (a) the  maximum
purchase limitation established for the Community Offering; (b) one-tenth of one
percent  of the total  offering  of shares;  or (c)  fifteen  times the  product
(rounded down to the next whole number) obtained by multiplying the total number
of the shares of Holding  Company  Stock to be issued by a fraction of which the
numerator  is the amount of the  deposit of the  Supplemental  Eligible  Account
Holder  and  the  denominator  is  the  total  amount  of  the  deposits  of all
Supplemental  Eligible  Account Holders on the Supplemental  Eligibility  Record
Date.  Subscription  rights received  pursuant to the third preference  category
shall be  subordinated  to all  rights  under the first  and  second  preference
categories.   Non-transferable   subscription   rights  to  be   received  by  a
Supplemental  Eligible Account Holder in the third preference  category shall be
reduced  by the  subscription  rights  received  by such  account  holder  as an
Eligible Account Holder under the first and second preference categories. In the
event of an  oversubscription,  shares  will be  allocated  so as to enable each
Supplemental  Eligible  Account Holder,  to the extent  possible,  to purchase a
number  of shares  sufficient  to make his total  allocation,  including  shares
previously allocated in the first and second preference categories, equal to 100
shares or the total amount of his  subscription,  whichever is less.  Any shares
not then  allocated  shall  be  allocated  among  the  subscribing  Supplemental
Eligible Account Holders

on an  equitable  basis  related to the amount of their  respective  deposits as
compared to the total deposits of Supplemental  Eligible  Account Holders on the
Supplemental Eligibility Record Date.

         If there is no  oversubscription  of the Holding  Company  Stock in the
first, second, and third preference  categories,  the fourth preference category
becomes  operable.  In the  fourth  preference  category,  members  of the  Bank
entitled  to vote at the  special  meeting of  members  to  approve  the Plan of
Conversion who are not Eligible Account Holders or Supplemental Eligible Account
Holders  ("Other  Members")  will  receive,  without  payment,  non-transferable
subscription  rights  entitling them to purchase  Holding  Company Stock.  Other
Members  shall each  receive  subscription  rights to purchase up to the maximum
purchase  limitation  established  for the Public  Offering or  one-tenth of one
percent of the total  offering  of shares,  to the extent that  Holding  Company
Stock is  available.  In the  event  of an  oversubscription  by Other  Members,
Holding  Company  Stock will be  allocated  pro rata  according to the number of
shares subscribed for by each Other Member.

         The Plan of Conversion  further provides for limitations upon purchases
of Holding Company Stock. Specifically, any person by himself or herself or with
an associate or a group of persons  acting in concert may subscribe for not more
than  $75,000  of  Holding  Company  Stock  offered  pursuant  to  the  Plan  of
Conversion,  except that Tax-Qualified Employee Stock Benefit Plans may purchase
up to 10% of the total shares of Holding  Company Stock  issued.  Subject to any
required  regulatory  approval  and the  requirements  of  applicable  laws  and
regulations,  the Bank may increase or decrease any of the purchase  limitations
set forth  herein at any time.  The Board of  Directors  of the Bank may, in its
sole discretion,  increase the maximum purchase  limitation up to 5.0%. Requests
to purchase additional shares of Holding Company Stock under this provision will
be allocated  by the Board of  Directors on a pro rata basis giving  priority in
accordance  with the  priority  rights  set  forth  in the  Plan of  Conversion.
Officers and directors of the Bank and their  associates may not purchase in the
aggregate  more than 35% of the Holding  Company  Stock  issued  pursuant to the
Conversion.  Directors  of the Bank  will not be  deemed  associates  or a group
acting  in  concert  solely  as a result  of their  membership  on the  board of
directors of the Bank. All of the shares of Holding  Company Stock  purchased by
officers and  directors  will be subject to certain  restrictions  on sale for a
period of one year.

         The Plan of  Conversion  provides  that no person  will be  issued  any
subscription  rights or be permitted to purchase  any Holding  Company  Stock if
such person resides in a foreign country or in a state of the United States with
respect  to which all of the  following  apply:  (a) a small  number of  persons
otherwise  eligible to subscribe for shares under the Plan of Conversion  reside
in such state;  (b) the issuance of subscription  rights or the offer or sale of
the Holding  Company Stock in such state,  would require the Bank or the Holding
Company under the securities law of such state to register as a broker or dealer
or to register or otherwise qualify its securities for

Board of Directors

sale  in such  state;  and (c)  such  registration  or  qualification  would  be
impracticable for reasons of cost or otherwise.

         The  Plan  of  Conversion  also  provides  for the  establishment  of a
Liquidation  Account by the Stock Bank for the benefit of all  Eligible  Account
Holders  and  Supplemental   Eligible  Account  Holders  (if  applicable).   The
Liquidation  Account  will be equal in amount to the net worth of Bank as of the
time of the Conversion.  The  establishment of the Liquidation  Account will not
operate to restrict the use or  application  of any of the net worth accounts of
the  Stock  Bank,  except  that the  Stock  Bank  will not  declare  or pay cash
dividends on or  repurchase  any of its stock if the result  thereof would be to
reduce its net worth  below the amount  required  to  maintain  the  Liquidation
Account.  The Liquidation Account will be for the benefit of the Bank's Eligible
Account Holders and Supplemental  Eligible Account Holders who maintain accounts
in the Bank at the time of the Conversion.  All such account holders,  including
those not entitled to subscription rights for reasons of foreign or out-of-state
residency  (as  described  above),  will  have an  interest  in the  Liquidation
Account.  The  interest an Eligible  Account  Holder and  Supplemental  Eligible
Account  Holder  will  have a right  to  receive,  in the  event  of a  complete
liquidation of the Stock Bank, is a distribution from the Liquidation Account in
the amount of the then current adjusted subaccount balances for savings accounts
then held, which will be made prior to any liquidation distribution with respect
to the capital stock of the Stock Bank.

         The  initial  subaccount  balance  for a  savings  account  held  by an
Eligible  Account Holder and/or  Supplemental  Eligible  Account Holder shall be
determined by multiplying the opening  balance in the  Liquidation  Account by a
fraction of which the numerator is the amount of the  qualifying  deposit in the
savings account,  and the denominator is the total amount of qualifying deposits
of all Eligible Account Holders and Supplemental Eligible Account Holders in the
Stock Bank. The initial subaccount  balance will never be increased,  but may be
decreased  if the  deposit  balance  in any  qualifying  savings  account of any
Eligible  Account  Holder or any savings  account of any  Supplemental  Eligible
Account Holder on any annual closing date subsequent to the  Eligibility  Record
Date or Supplemental  Eligibility Record Date, whichever is applicable,  is less
than the lesser of (1) the deposit  balance in the savings  account at the close
of business on any other  annual  closing  date  subsequent  to the  Eligibility
Record Date or the  Supplemental  Eligibility  Record Date, or (2) the amount of
the qualifying  deposit in such savings  account.  In such event, the subaccount
balance for the savings  account  will be adjusted by reducing  each  subaccount
balance in an amount  proportionate  to the  reduction  in the  savings  account
balance.  Once  decreased,  the Plan of Conversion  provides that the subaccount
balance will never be subsequently  increased,  and if the savings account of an
Eligible Account Holder or Supplemental  Eligible Account Holder is closed,  the
related subaccount balance in the Liquidation Account will be reduced to zero.

         The net proceeds  from the sale of the shares of Holding  Company Stock
will become the permanent  capital of Holding  Company,  and the Holding Company
will in turn purchase 100%

of the stock  issued by Stock  Bank,  in  exchange  for up to 50% of the Holding
Company's stock offering net proceeds or such other percentage as is approved by
the Board of Directors with the concurrence of the OTS.

         Following  the  Conversion,  voting  rights  in Stock  Bank  will  rest
exclusively in the Holding  Company.  Voting rights in the Holding  Company will
rest exclusively in the stockholders of the Holding Company. The Conversion will
not interrupt the business of the Bank,  and its business will continue as usual
under the Stock Bank. Each depositor will retain a withdrawable  savings account
or accounts equal in amount to the withdrawable  account or accounts at the time
of the Conversion.  Mortgage loans of the Bank will remain  unchanged and retain
their same  characteristics  in the Stock Bank after the  Conversion.  The Stock
Bank will  continue  membership  in the Federal Home Loan Bank System,  and will
remain  subject to the regulatory  authority of the OTS.  Deposits in Stock Bank
will  continue  to  be  insured  by  the  Savings  Association   Insurance  Fund
administered  by the Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Corporation  up to  applicable
limits of insurance coverage.

         Immediately prior to the Conversion,  the Bank will have a positive net
worth in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles.  The savings
account  holders  of  the  Bank  will  pay  expenses  of the  Conversion  solely
attributable to them, if any. Further, the Bank will pay its own expenses of the
Conversion  and will not pay any  expenses  solely  attributable  to the  Bank's
savings account holders or to the purchasers of Holding Company Stock.

                          REPRESENTATIONS BY MANAGEMENT
                          -----------------------------

         In  connection   with  the   Conversion,   the  following   statements,
representations and declarations have been made to us by management of the Bank:

         1. The Conversion  will be implemented in accordance  with the terms of
the Plan of Conversion  and all  conditions  precedent  contained in the Plan of
Conversion shall be performed prior to the consummation of the Conversion.

         2. The fair market  value of the  withdrawable  savings  accounts  plus
interests in the  Liquidation  Account to be  constructively  received under the
Plan of  Conversion  will in each  instance be equal to the fair market value of
each savings account of the Bank plus the interest in the residual equity of the
Bank surrendered in exchange  therefor.  All proprietary rights in the Bank form
an integral part of the withdrawable  savings accounts being  surrendered in the
Conversion.

         3.  The  Holding  Company  and  the  Stock  Bank  each  have no plan or
intention to redeem or otherwise acquire any of the Holding Company Stock issued
in the proposed transaction.

         4. To the best of the knowledge of the management of the Bank, there is
not now nor will there be at the time of the Conversion,  any plan or intention,
on the part of the depositors in the Bank to withdraw  their deposits  following
the  Conversion.   Deposits  withdrawn   immediately  prior  to  or  immediately
subsequent to the  Conversion  (other than maturing  deposits) are considered in
making these assumptions. 00
         5. Immediately  following the consummation of the proposed transaction,
the Stock Bank will  possess  the same assets and  liabilities  as the Bank held
immediately prior to the proposed transaction, plus substantially all of the net
proceeds  from the sale of its stock to the Holding  Company  (except for assets
used to pay  expenses in the  Conversion).  Assets  used to pay  expenses of the
Conversion  (without reference to the expenses of the Subscription  Offering and
the Public Offering) and all  distributions  (except for regular normal interest
payments made by the Bank  immediately  preceding the  transaction)  will in the
aggregate  constitute  less than one percent (1%) of the assets of the Bank, net
of liabilities associated with such assets, and will be paid by the Bank and the
Holding  Company  from the  proceeds  of the  Subscription  Offering  and Public
Offering.

         6. Following the Conversion,  the Stock Bank will continue to engage in
its business in substantially the same manner as engaged in by the Bank prior to
the  Conversion.  The Stock Bank has no plan or  intention  to sell or otherwise
dispose of any of its assets, except in the ordinary course of business.

         7. No cash or property  will be given to any member of the Bank in lieu
of subscription  rights or an interest in the  Liquidation  Account of the Stock
Bank.

         8. None of the  compensation  to be  received  by any  deposit  account
holder-employees   of  the  Bank  or  the  Holding   Company  will  be  separate
consideration  for,  or  allocable  to, any of their  deposits  in the Bank.  No
interest  in the  Liquidation  Account of the Stock Bank will be received by any
deposit  account   holder-employees  as  separate  consideration  for,  or  will
otherwise be allocable to, any employment  agreement,  and the compensation paid
to  each  deposit  account  holder-employee,  during  the  twelve  month  period
preceding  or  subsequent  to the  Conversion,  will  be for  services  actually
rendered and will be commensurate with amounts paid to third parties  bargaining
at arm's length for similar services. No shares of Holding Company Stock will be
issued to or purchased by any deposit account holder-employee of the Bank or the
Holding Company at a discount or as compensation in the Conversion.

         9. The aggregate fair market value of the  Qualifying  Deposits held by
Eligible   Account  Holders  or  Supplemental   Eligible   Account  Holders  (if
applicable)  as of the  close of  business  on the  Eligibility  Record  Date or
Supplemental  Eligibility  Record Date (if applicable)  entitled to interests in
the Liquidation Account to be established by Stock Bank equalled or


<PAGE>

Board of Directors

Page 9

exceeded  99% of the  aggregate  fair  market  value  of  all  savings  accounts
(including  those  accounts of less than  $50.00) in the Bank as of the close of
business on such date.

         10. There is no plan or intention  for the Stock Bank to be  liquidated
or merged with another corporation following the consummation of the Conversion.

         11. The Bank and the Stock Bank are corporations  within the meaning of
Section 7701(a)(3) of the Code.

         12. The Holding  Company has no plan or  intention to sell or otherwise
dispose  of  the  stock  of  the  Stock  Bank  received  by it in  the  proposed
transaction.

         13.  Both  the  Stock  Bank  and the  Holding  Company  have no plan or
intention,  either  currently  or at  the  time  of  the  Conversion,  to  issue
additional shares of common stock following the proposed transaction, other than
shares that may be issued to employees or  directors  pursuant to certain  stock
option  and stock  incentive  plans or that may be issued  to  employee  benefit
plans.

         14. At the time of the proposed  transaction,  the fair market value of
the assets of the Bank on a going concern  basis  (including  intangibles)  will
equal or exceed the amount of its  li0abilities  plus the amount of liability to
which such  assets are  subject.  The Bank will have a positive  regulatory  net
worth at the time of the Conversion.

         15. The Bank is not under the  jurisdiction of a court in a Title 11 or
similar  case  within  the  meaning  of Section  368(a)(3)(A)  of the Code.  The
proposed  transaction does not involve a receivership,  foreclosure,  or similar
proceeding before a federal or state agency involving a financial institution to
which Section 585 or 593 of the Code applies.

         16. The Bank's savings  depositors  will pay expenses of the Conversion
solely  attributable to them, if any. The Holding  Company,  the Stock Bank, and
the Bank will pay  their own  expenses  of the  Conversion  and will not pay any
expenses solely attributable to the savings depositors or to the Holding Company
stockholders.

         17.  The  liabilities  of the Bank  assumed  by the Stock Bank plus the
liabilities,  if any, to which the transferred  assets are subject were incurred
by the Bank in the ordinary  course of its business and are associated  with the
assets transferred.

         18. There will be no purchase  price  advantage for the Bank's  deposit
account holders who purchase Holding Company Stock in the Conversion.

         19.  Neither  the Bank nor the Stock Bank is an  investment  company as
defined in Sections 368(a)(2)(F)(iii) and (iv) of the Code.

         20. No  creditors  of the Bank have  taken any steps to  enforce  their
claims against the Bank by instituting bankruptcy or other legal proceedings, in
either a court or  appropriate  regulatory  agency,  that  would  eliminate  the
proprietary interests of the members of the Bank prior to the Conversion.

         21. The proposed  transaction does not involve the payment to the Stock
Bank or the Bank of  financial  assistance  from  federal  agencies  within  the
meaning of Notice 89-102, 1989-40 C.B. 1.

         22. The Eligible  Account  Holders' and  Supplemental  Eligible Account
Holders'  proprietary  interest  in the Bank arise  solely by virtue of the fact
that they are account holders in the Bank.

         23. At the time of the Conversion,  the Bank will not have  outstanding
any  warrants,  options,  convertible  securities,  or any  other  type of right
pursuant  to which any person  could  acquire an equity  interest in the Holding
Company or the Stock Bank.

         24.  The  Stock  Bank  has no plan or  intention  to sell or  otherwise
dispose of any of the assets of the Bank acquired in the transaction (except for
dispositions,  including  deposit  withdrawals,  made in the ordinary  course of
business).

         25. On a per share  basis,  the purchase  price of the Holding  Company
Stock in the Conversion  will be equal to the fair market value of such stock at
the time of the completion of the proposed transaction.

         26. The Bank has received or will receive an opinion from FinPro,  Inc.
("Appraiser's Opinion"), which concludes that subscription rights to be received
by Eligible Account Holders,  Supplemental  Eligible Account Holders,  and other
eligible  subscribers do not have any ascertainable  fair market value,  because
they are acquired by the recipients  without cost, are  non-transferable,  exist
for such a short  duration,  and merely  afford the  recipients  a right only to
purchase  Holding  Company Stock at a price equal to its  estimated  fair market
value, which will be the same price used in the Public Offering for unsubscribed
shares of Holding Company Stock.

         27.  The Bank  will not have any net  operating  losses,  capital  loss
carryovers, or built-in losses at the time of the Conversion.

                               OPINION OF COUNSEL
                               ------------------

         Based  solely  upon the  foregoing  information  and our  analysis  and
examination of current applicable federal income tax laws, rulings, regulations,
judicial precedents, and the Appraiser's


<PAGE>
MALIZIA, SPIDI, SLOANE & FISCH, P.C.


Board of Directors

Page 11

Opinion,  and provided the Conversion is undertaken in accordance with the above
assumptions, we render the following opinion of counsel:

         1.  The  change  in  the  form  of   operation   of  the  Bank  from  a
federally-chartered  mutual savings bank to a federally  chartered capital stock
savings bank, as described above,  will constitute a  reorganization  within the
meaning  of  Section  368(a)(1)(F)  of the  Code,  and no gain  or loss  will be
recognized  to  either  the  Bank  or to the  Stock  Bank  as a  result  of such
Conversion.  (See Rev. Rul. 80-105, 1980-1 C.B. 78). The Bank and the Stock Bank
will each be a party to a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(b) of
the Code. (Rev. Rul. 72-206, 1972-1 C.B. 104).

         2. No gain or loss will be  recognized by the Stock Bank on the receipt
of money in  exchange  for shares of Stock Bank stock.  (Section  1032(a) of the
Code).

         3. The Holding  Company will recognize no gain or loss upon its receipt
of money in exchange for shares of Holding  Company Stock.  (Section  1032(a) of
the Code).

         4. The  assets of the Bank will have the same basis in the hands of the
Stock  Bank as in the  hands of the Bank  immediately  prior to the  Conversion.
(Section 362(b) of the Code).

         5. The  holding  period of the assets of the Bank to be received by the
Stock Bank will include the period during which the assets were held by the Bank
prior to the Conversion.
(Section 1223(2) of the Code).

         6.  Depositors  will realize gain, if any, upon the issuance to them of
(i) withdrawable deposit accounts of the Stock Bank, (ii) subscription rights in
connection  with the  Conversion,  and/or  (iii)  interests  in the  Liquidation
Account of the Stock Bank. Any gain resulting therefrom will be recognized,  but
only in an  amount  not in excess of the fair  market  value of the  Liquidation
Accounts and/or subscription rights received. The Liquidation Accounts will have
nominal,  if any,  fair  market  value.  Based  solely  on the  accuracy  of the
conclusion reached in the Appraiser's Opinion, and our reliance on such opinion,
that the  subscription  rights  have no value  at the  time of  distribution  or
exercise,  no gain or loss will be required to be recognized by depositors  upon
receipt or distribution of subscription rights. (Section 1001 of the Code).
See Paulsen v. Commissioner, 469 U.S. 131, 139 (1985).

         Likewise,  based  solely on the  accuracy of the  aforesaid  conclusion
reached  in the  Appraiser's  Opinion,  and our  reliance  thereon,  we give the
following  opinions:  (a) no taxable income will be recognized by the borrowers,
directors,  officers,  and employees of the Bank upon  dis00tribution to them of
subscription  rights or upon the exercise or lapse of the subscription rights to
acquire Holding  Company Stock at fair market value;  (b) no taxable income will
be realized by the  depositors  of the Bank as a result of the exercise or lapse
of the subscription


<PAGE>
MALIZIA, SPIDI, SLOANE & FISCH, P.C.


Board of Directors
Carnegie Savings Bank

Page 12

rights to purchase Holding Company Stock at fair market value (Rev. Rul. 56-572,
1956-2 C.B.  182);  and (c) no taxable  income will be realized by the Bank, the
Stock  Bank,  or  the  Holding  Company  on  the  issuance  or  distribution  of
subscription  rights to  depositors  of the Bank to  purchase  shares of Holding
Company Stock at fair market value (Section 311 of the Code).

         Notwithstanding the Appraiser's Opinion, if the subscription rights are
subsequently  found to have a fair market value greater than zero, income may be
recognized by various  recipients of the subscription  rights (in certain cases,
whether or not the rights are  exercised)  and the  Holding  Company  and/or the
Stock  Bank may be  taxable  on the  distribution  of the  subscription  rights.
(Section 311 of the Code). In this regard, the subscription  rights may be taxed
partially or entirely at ordinary income tax rates.

         7. The basis of the savings  accounts in the Stock Bank received by the
account  holders  of the  Bank  will be the same as the  basis of their  savings
accounts in the Bank surrendered in exchange therefor (Section  358(a)(1)).  The
basis of the interests in the Liquidation  Account of the Stock Bank received by
the Eligible Account Holders and  Supplemental  Eligible Account Holders will be
zero, that being the cost of such property.  (Paulsen v. Commissioner,  469 U.S.
131, 139 (1985)). The basis of the non-transferable  subscription rights will be
zero,  provided  that such  subscription  rights  are not  deemed to have a fair
market  value  and  that the  subscription  price of such  stock  issuable  upon
exercise  of such rights is equal to the fair  market  value of such stock.  The
basis of the Holding  Company  Stock to its  stockholders  will be the  purchase
price  thereof,  increased  by the basis,  if any,  of the  subscription  rights
exercised  (Section  1012 of the Code).  The holding  period of Holding  Company
Stock will  commence  upon the  effective  date of exercise of the  subscription
rights (Section 1223(6) of the Code). The holding period for the Holding Company
Stock purchased  pursuant to the direct community  offering,  public offering or
under other purchase  arrangements  will commence on the date following the date
on which such stock is purchased. (Rev. Rul. 70- 598, 1970-2 C.B. 168).

         8. The part of the taxable year of the Bank before the  Conversion  and
the part of the  taxable  year of the  Stock  Bank  after  the  Conversion  will
constitute  a single  taxable  year of the Stock Bank.  (See Rev.  Rul.  57-276,
1957-1 C.B. 126). Consequently,  the Bank will not be required to file a federal
income tax return for any portion of such taxable year (Section 1.381(b)-1(a)(2)
of the Treasury Regulations).

         9.  As  provided  by  Section   381(c)(2)   of  the  Code  and  Section
1.381(c)(2)-1  of the Treasury  Regulations,  the Stock Bank will succeed to and
take into account the earnings and profits or deficit in earnings and profits of
the Bank as of the date or dates of transfer.

         10. Regardless of book entries made for the creation of the Liquidation
Account,  the Conversion,  as described above, will not diminish the accumulated
earnings and profits of the

Stock Bank available for the  subsequent  distribution  of dividends  within the
meaning of Section 316 of the Code. (Section 1.312-11(b) and (c) of the Treasury
Regulations).

         11. For  purposes  of Section  381 of the Code,  the Stock Bank will be
treated  the same as the Bank would have been had there been no  reorganization.
Accordingly,  the taxable year of the Bank will not end on the effective date of
the proposed transaction merely because of the transfer of assets of the Bank to
the Stock Bank and the tax  attributes of the Bank  enumerated in Section 381(c)
will  be  taken  into  account  by the  Stock  Bank  as if  there  had  been  no
reorganization (Section 1.381(b)-1(a)(2)) of the Treasury Regulations).

         No opinion is expressed as to the tax treatment of the Conversion under
the provisions of any of the other sections of the Code and Treasury Regulations
which  may also be  applicable  thereto,  or under  federal  law,  or to the tax
treatment of any conditions  existing at the time of, or effects resulting from,
the  transactions  which  are not  specifically  covered  by the items set forth
above.  Notwithstanding  any  reference  to  Section  381  above,  no opinion is
expressed or intended to be expressed  herein as to the effect,  if any, of this
transaction on the continued existence of, the carryover or carryback of, or the
limitation on, any net operating losses of the Bank or its successor,  the Stock
Bank, under the Code.

         We hereby  consent to the  filing of this  opinion as an exhibit to the
Application  for  Conversion  on Form AC of the Bank  filed  with  the OTS,  the
Application  H-(e)(1)-S  of the  Holding  Company  filed  with the OTS,  and the
Registration  Statement  on Form SB-2 of the  Holding  Company  filed  under the
Securities  Act of 1933,  as amended,  and to the  reference  of our firm in the
prospectus related to this opinion.

                                            Very truly yours,

Board of Directors
Carnegie Savings Bank
17 West Mall Plaza
Carnegie, Pennsylvania  15106

Board Members:

     You  have  requested  our  opinion  regarding   certain   Pennsylvania  tax
consequences to Carnegie  Savings Bank (the "Bank") and its depositors under the
laws  of the  Commonwealth  of  Pennsylvania  of the  proposed  conversion  (the
"Conversion")  under which the Bank will be changed  from a  federally-chartered
mutual  savings bank to a  federally-chartered  capital  stock savings bank (the
"Stock  Bank"),   the  simultaneous   formation  of  a  parent  holding  company
incorporated  in Pennsylvania  (the "Holding  Company") that will acquire all of
the outstanding stock of the Stock Bank (the "Acquisition"), and the offering of
the stock of the Holding Company to the public (the  "Offering"),  pursuant to a
Plan of Conversion adopted by the Board of Directors of the Bank on December 15,
1997, as amended (the "Plan").

     We have provided the Bank an opinion of this firm regarding certain federal
income tax  consequences of the Conversion,  the  Acquisition,  and the Offering
(the  "Federal  Tax  Opinion").  Based upon the facts  stated in the Federal Tax
Opinion,  including certain representations of the Bank, the Federal Tax Opinion
concludes,  among other  things,  that the  Conversion  qualifies  as a tax-free
reorganization  under ss.368(a)(1)(F)  of the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended,  and that the Bank,  the Stock Bank,  and the  Holding  Company and the
depositors  of the Bank will not  recognize  income,  gain,  or loss for federal
income tax purposes upon the implementation of the Conversion,  the Acquisition,
and the Offering.

     Based upon (1) the facts and circumstances attendant to the Conversion, the
Acquisition,  and the Offering,  including the  representations  of the Bank, as
described in the Federal Tax Opinion,  (2) current  provisions  of  Pennsylvania
law, as reflected  in  Pennsylvania  statutes,  administrative  regulations  and
rulings thereunder,  and court decisions,  (3) the Federal Tax Opinion,  and (4)
the assumption that the Conversion,  the Acquisition,  and the Offering will not
result in the  recognition  of any gain or income on the books of the Bank,  the
Stock  Bank,  or  the  Holding  Company  under  generally  accepted   accounting
principles,  it is our  opinion  that  under  the  laws of the  Commonwealth  of
Pennsylvania, the implementation of the Conversion, the

Acquisition and the Offering will not cause any tax liability to be incurred (a)
by  the  Bank  or by  the  Stock  Bank  under  the  Pennsylvania  Mutual  Thrift
Institutions Tax ("MTIT"), 72 P.S. ss.8501 et seq., (b) by the depositors of the
Bank under the  Pennsylvania  Personal  Income Tax ("PIT"),  72 P.S.  ss.7301 et
seq., and (c) by the Holding Company under the Pennsylvania Corporate Net Income
Tax ("CNIT"), 72 P.S. ss.7401 et seq.

     Our opinions  herein are expressly  limited to those taxes specified in the
immediately  preceding  paragraph and  specifically  do not include any opinions
with respect to the  consequences  to  depositors of the  implementation  of the
Conversion,  the  Acquisition,  or the Offering under any other taxes imposed by
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or any other subdivision thereof, or imposed by
states  other than  Pennsylvania  and local  jurisdictions  of such  states.  In
addition,  the opinions  herein  specifically do not include (1) an opinion with
respect to the consequences to the Bank, the Stock Bank, and the Holding Company
of the implementation of the Conversion, the Acquisition,  or the Offering under
any local taxes  imposed by any political  subdivision  of the  Commonwealth  of
Pennsylvania,  and under any state or local realty or other transfer tax, or (2)
an opinion with respect to tax liabilities  under the MTIT, the PIT, or the CNIT
attributable to events after the Conversion, the Acquisition and the Offering or
to any assets held or acquired  by the Holding  Company  other than stock of the
Stock Bank.

     Our opinion is based on the facts and conditions as stated herein,  whether
directly or by  reference  to the Federal Tax  Opinion.  If any of the facts and
conditions are not entirely  complete or accurate,  it is imperative  that we be
informed immediately,  as the inaccuracy or incompleteness could have a material
effect on our  conclusions.  In rendering  our opinion,  we are relying upon the
relevant  provisions of the Code, the laws of the  Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
as amended, the regulations and rules thereunder and judicial and administrative
interpretations  thereof,  which  are  subject  to  change  or  modification  by
subsequent legislative,  regulatory,  administrative, or judicial decisions. Any
such  changes  could  also have an effect on the  validity  of our  opinion.  We
undertake no responsibility to update or supplement our opinion.  Our opinion is
not binding on the Internal Revenue Service or the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
nor can any assurance be given that any of the foregoing parties will not take a
contrary  position  or that our  opinion  will be upheld if  challenged  by such
parties.

     Finally,  we hereby  consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to
the  Application for Conversion on Form AC ("Form AC") or similar filings of the
Bank filed with the Office of Thrift Supervision,  the filing of this opinion as
an exhibit to the Application  H-(e)(1)S of the Holding Company to be filed with
the Office of Thrift Supervision, and the filing of this opinion

Introduction

This report represents FinPro,  Inc.'s ("FinPro")  independent  appraisal of the
estimated  pro-forma  market value of the common stock ( the "Common  Stock") of
Carnegie  Financial  Corporation  (the "Company") in connection with the Plan of
Conversion ("Conversion") of Carnegie Savings Bank (the "Bank") from a federally
chartered  mutual  savings bank to a federally  chartered  stock  savings  bank.
Pursuant to the Plan of  Conversion,  (i) the Bank will convert from a federally
chartered savings bank organized in mutual form to a federally chartered savings
bank organized in the stock form, (ii) the Company will sell its Common Stock to
the  eligible  depositors  and  members  and then to the  public,  and (iii) the
Company will use 50% of the net proceeds to purchase all of the capital stock of
the Bank.

It is our understanding  that the Company will offer its stock in a subscription
and community  offering to the Bank's Eligible Account Holders,  to Supplemental
Eligible  Account  Holders  of the  Bank,  to Other  Participants,  to the board
members,  officers  and  employees  of the  Bank,  and to  the  community.  This
appraisal has been prepared in accordance  with  Regulation  563b.7 and with the
"Guidelines  for  Appraisal  Reports  for the  Valuation  of  Savings  and  Loan
Associations Converting from Mutual to Stock Form of Organization" of the Office
of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") which have been adopted in practice by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation  ("FDIC"),  including the most recent revisions as
of October 21, 1994, and applicable regulatory interpretations thereof.

In the course of preparing our report,  we reviewed the financial  statements of
the  Bank's  operations  for the year  ended  December  31,  1997 and the Bank's
operations  and  financials  for the prior year ended December 31, 1996. We also
reviewed the Bank's  Application for Approval of Conversion  including the Proxy
Statement and the Company's  Form S-1  registration  statement as filed with the
Securities  and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC").  We have  conducted due diligence
analysis of the Bank and the Company  (hereinafter,  collectively referred to as
"the  Bank")  and  held  due  diligence  related  discussions  with  the  Bank's
management  and  board,  Goff  Ellenbogen  Backa  &  Alfera,   LLC  (the  Bank's
independent audit firm), Capital Resources,  Inc. (the Bank's underwriter),  and
Malizia, Spidi, Sloane & Fisch, P.C. (the Bank's special counsel). The valuation
parameters set forth in the appraisal were  predicated on these  discussions but
all  conclusions  related to the valuation were reached and made  independent of
such discussions.

Where appropriate, we considered information based upon other publicly available
sources,  which we believe to be  reliable;  however,  we cannot  guarantee  the
accuracy or  completeness  of such  information.  We visited the Bank's  primary
market area and reviewed the market area  economic  condition.  We also reviewed
the  competitive  environment  in  which  the  Bank  operates  and its  relative
strengths  and  weaknesses.  We compared the Bank's  performance  with  selected
publicly traded thrift  institutions.  We reviewed  conditions in the securities
markets in general and in the market for savings institutions in particular. Our
analysis  included a review of the  estimated  effects of the  Conversion on the
Bank, operation and expected financial performance as they related to the Bank's
estimated pro-forma value.

In  preparing  our  valuation,  we relied  upon and  assumed  the  accuracy  and
completeness of financial and other  information  provided to us by the Bank and
its  independent  accountants.  We did not  independently  verify the  financial
statements  and  other  information  provided  by the Bank  and its  independent
accountants,  nor  did  we  independently  value  any of the  Bank's  assets  or
liabilities. This estimated valuation considers the Bank only as a going concern
and should not be considered as an indication of its liquidation value.

Our valuation is not intended, and must not be construed, to be a recommendation
of any kind as 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 valuation of the pro-forma market value thereof.
FinPro is not a seller of securities  within the meaning of any federal or state
securities  laws and any report prepared by FinPro shall not be used as an offer
or solicitation with respect to the purchase or sale of any securities.

The estimated  valuation  herein will be updated as  appropriate.  These updates
will consider,  among other  factors,  any  developments  or changes in the Bank
financial condition,  operating performance,  management policies and procedures
and current  conditions in the securities market for thrift  institution  common
stock.  Should any such developments or changes,  in our opinion, be material to
the estimated pro-forma market value of the Bank, appropriate adjustments to the
estimated  pro-forma  market  value  will be  made.  The  reasons  for any  such
adjustments will be explained at that time.

                       HISTORY
- -------------------------------------------------


Carnegie Savings Bank began operations in 1915 under the name, "Carnegie Savings
Building and Loan." In 1995,  the Bank converted to a state savings bank charter
and obtained FDIC insurance  through BIF. In March 1998, the Bank converted to a
federal mutual savings  charter.  The Bank is a community and customer  oriented
federal  mutual  savings  bank.   The  Bank  provides   financial   services  to
individuals,  families and small businesses.  Historically,  the Bank emphasized
residential mortgage lending,  primarily originating one-to-four family mortgage
loans.

- -------------------------------------------------
               STRATEGIC DIRECTION
- -------------------------------------------------


The Bank's Business Plan projects  controlled balance sheet growth with the Bank
originating  residential  mortgages,  home equity loans,  and  commercial  loans
(secured by real estate).  On the liability side, the Bank will grow deposits by
emphasizing core deposits (transaction and savings accounts).

The Bank will build its interest rate spread and margin through  controlled loan
growth and a change in deposit mix. In addition, the Bank will maintain earnings
by emphasizing asset quality and controlling expenses.

The Plan calls for the  following  major  thrusts  over the  five-year  planning
horizon:

     1.   Converting  to a stock  institution  to raise  capital to fund  growth
          opportunities and strengthen the capital position of the Bank;

     2.   Planned  core  business  growth  of the  Bank  to  grow  into  expense
          structure;

     3.   Change in the loan mix to increase mortgages,  home equity loans, home
          equity lines of credit, and limited commercial loans (secured);

     4.   Change of the  funding  mix toward  core  deposits  and away from time
          deposits; and

     5.   Analyze and implement  wholesale leverage  strategies as interest rate
          and economic opportunities present themselves.

The  following  chart  illustrates  the Bank's net  portfolio  value  ("NPV") at
December 31, 1997, as  calculated by FinPro,  Inc. The Bank manages its interest
rate risk  through  normal  balance  sheet  activities  and does not utilize any
hedging  techniques.  This  chart  indicates  that the  Bank  has some  level of
interest  rate risk.  At the +200 basis point rate  shock,  the Bank's NPV falls
below the level of  tangible.  This is due to its  large  conventional  mortgage
portfolio and its reliance on time deposits.

Interest rate spread and margin  decreased for the year ended December 31, 1997.
The decrease is due to both a lower asset yield and a higher cost of funds.  The
decreased  asset  yield is  partially  due to a  decrease  in the yield on loans
receivable, but is primarily due to the increase in the mortgage-backed security
portfolio  which  carries a lower  overall  yield than the loan  portfolio.  The
higher  cost  of  funds  is  primarily  due to an 33  basis  point  increase  in
certificates of deposit.

      MARKET AREA DEPOSIT CHARACTERISTICS
- -------------------------------------------------


The Bank's branch, as mentioned earlier,  is located in Carnegie,  Pennsylvania.
Due to the nature of the Bank's service area, the competition was defined as all
branches within a three mile radius of the Bank's  facility.  Within 100 feet of
the Bank's  branch,  Mellon Bank,  PNC and National City Bank each have a branch
with deposit levels at least two times that of Carnegie's.  PNC was the only one
of the  three to grow  its  deposits,  but  offers a  slightly  more  convenient
location.  Carnegie,  despite its lack of  convenience  services,  has generated
growth of almost 50% over the four year period ended June 30, 1997.

3.  Comparisons With Publicly Traded Thrifts


- -------------------------------------------------
               INTRODUCTION
- -------------------------------------------------


This chapter presents an analysis of the Bank's operations  against a Comparable
Group of publicly traded savings institutions. The Comparable Group ("Comparable
Group") was selected from a universe of 394 public thrifts as of March 11, 1998.
The Comparable  Group was selected based upon similarity of  characteristics  to
the Bank. The Comparable  Group multiples  provide the basis for the fair market
valuation of the Bank.  Factors that  influence the Bank's value such as balance
sheet  structure and size,  profitability,  income and expense  trends,  capital
levels,  credit risk,  interest  rate risk and recent  operating  results can be
measured  against the  Comparable  Group.  The  Comparable  Group current market
pricing,  coupled with the appropriate  adjustments for differences  between the
Bank and the  Comparable  Group,  will  then be  utilized  as the  basis for the
pro-forma valuation of the Bank to-be-issued common stock.


- -------------------------------------------------
             SELECTION SCREENS
- -------------------------------------------------


When selecting the Comparables, it was determined that the balance sheet size of
the institution  was of greater  importance than geography due to the importance
economies of scale plays in a small organization.

The selection screens utilized to identify possible Comparables from the list of
394 public thrifts at March 11, 1998 included:

     1.   The IPO date had to be before  January  1, 1997,  eliminating  any new
          conversions.

     2.   The conversion type had to be a full standard conversion.

     3.   The total asset size had to be less than or equal to $60 million.

     4.   The  price to book  trading  multiple  had to be less than or equal to
          200% to eliminate  those  institutions  with  speculation  included in
          their price.

                  SELECTION CRITERIA
- -------------------------------------------------


Excluded from the Comparable Group were  institutions  that were pending mergers
or  acquisitions  along with  companies  whose prices  appear to be distorted by
speculative  factors or unusual operating  conditions.  Also,  institutions that
completed  their  conversions  within  the last year were also  excluded  as the
earnings of newly  converted  institutions  do not reflect a full years  benefit
from the  reinvestment of proceeds,  and thus the  price/earnings  multiples and
return on equity  measures for these  institutions  tend to be skewed upward and
downward respectively.

In an  ideal  world,  all  of the  Comparable  Group  would  contain  the  exact
characteristics  of the Bank. The goal of the selection  criteria  process is to
find those  institutions  that most closely match those of the Bank.  Given that
Carnegie  is such a small  institution,  the list of  potential  comparables  is
severely limited and the performance  ratios may vary to a greater extent than a
comparable group selected for a the conversion of a larger institution.  None of
the Comparables selected will be exact clones of the Bank.

The  members of the  Comparable  Group were  selected  based upon the  following
criteria:

                  1.   Asset size

                  2.   Date of conversion

1. Asset size The Comparable Group should have a similar asset size to the Bank.
Large  institutions  are  not  appropriate  for  the  peer  group  due to a more
extensive branch network,  greater  financial  strength,  more access to diverse
markets  and more  capacity in terms of  infrastructure.  The  Comparable  Group
ranged in size from $36.1  million  to $57.8  million  in total  assets  with an
average of $45.2 million. The Bank's asset size was $16.7 million as of December
31, 1997 and will be $18.0  million on a proforma  basis at the  midpoint of the
valuation range. The smallest Comparable  institution is still twice as large as
Carnegie,  however,  the  institutions  selected  are the only  actively  traded
institutions under $50 million.

2.  Profitability  The  Comparable  Group have ROAAs  averaging  0.96% and ROAEs
averaging  4.00% for the most recent quarter  available.  The  Comparable  Group
profitability  measures  had a  dispersion  about the mean for the ROAA  measure
ranging  from a low of 0.49% to a high of 1.51%  while the ROAE  measure  ranged
from a low of 1.98% to a high of 5.70%. The Bank had an ROAA of (0.33)% and ROAE
of (4.28)% for the twelve month period ending  December 31, 1997.  However,  the
Bank's ratios include the previously mentioned one time events. On a normalized,
tax adjusted basis the ROAA and ROAE would be 0.61% and 7.88%, respectively.

================================================================================


3. Capital level The average equity to assets ratio for the Comparable Group was
24.50% with a high of 50.09% and a low of 13.76%. At December 31, 1997, the Bank
had an equity to assets ratio of 7.00%. On a proforma basis, at the midpoint the
Bank would have an equity to assets ratio of 13.82%.

4.  Balance  Sheet Mix At December  31,  1997,  the Bank had a total net loan to
asset ratio of 57.32%.  The average loan to asset ratio for the  Comparables was
72.10%,  ranging from a low of 57.23% to a high of 89.75%. On the liability side
the Bank's  deposit to asset  ratio was 90.76% at  December  31,  1997 while the
Comparables average was 66.68%, ranging from 39.68% to 80.90%. Additionally, the
Bank had no  borrowings  as of December  31, 1997 and the  Comparables  averaged
7.45% with a range of 0.00% to 23.83%.

5. Operating strategy An institution's  operating  characteristics are important
because they determine  future  performance.  They also affect expected rates of
return and investor's general perception of the quality, risk and attractiveness
of a given company.  Specific operating  characteristics  include profitability,
balance sheet growth, asset quality,  capitalization,  and non-financial factors
such as management strategies and lines of business.

6. Date of conversion Recent conversions, those completed after January 1, 1997,
were excluded since the earnings of a newly converted institution do not reflect
a full year's benefits of reinvestment of conversion proceeds. Additionally, new
issues tend to trade at a discount to the market averages.

4.  Market Value Determination


- -------------------------------------------------
                 INTRODUCTION
- -------------------------------------------------


The estimated pro-forma market value of the Bank, along with certain adjustments
to its value relative to market values for the  Comparable  Group are delineated
in this  section.  The  adjustments  delineated  in this  section  are made from
potential  investors'  viewpoints.  A  potential  investor  includes  depositors
holding  subscription rights and unrelated parties who may purchase stock in the
community offering and who are assumed to be aware of all relevant and necessary
facts as they pertain to the value of the Bank relative to other publicly traded
thrift institutions and relative to alternative investment opportunities.

There are numerous criteria on which the market value adjustments are based, but
the major ones utilized for purposes of this report include:

          o   Balance Sheet Strength

          o    Asset Quality

          o    Earnings Quality, Predictability and Growth

          o    Market Area

          o    Management

          o    Dividends

          o    Liquidity of the Issue

          o    Subscription Interest

          o    Recent Regulatory Matters

          o    Market for Seasoned Thrift Stocks

          o    Acquisition Market

After  identifying  the  adjustments  that should be made to market  value,  the
pro-forma  market value for the Bank is computed  and  adjusted.  The  estimated
pro-forma  market value for the Bank is then compared with the market  valuation
ratios of the  Comparable  Group,  recently  converted  public  thrifts  and the
aggregate ratios for all public thrifts.

          BALANCE SHEET STRENGTH
- -------------------------------------------------


The balance  sheet  strength of an  institution  is an  important  market  value
determinant,  as  the  investment  community  considers  such  factors  as  bank
liquidity, capitalization, asset composition, funding mix, intangible levels and
interest  rate risk in assessing the  attractiveness  of investing in the common
stock of a thrift.  The following tables summarize the key financial elements of
the Bank measured against the Comparable Group.

         Liquidity - The liquidity of the Bank and the  Comparable  Group appear
         similar and were sufficient to meet all regulatory guidelines.

         Asset  Composition  - The Bank's  net loan to asset  ratio of 57.32% is
         well below the average for the Comparable Group of 72.10%.

         Funding Mix - The Bank is funded primarily through deposits,  90.76% of
         assets,  and retained  earnings,  7.00% of assets. The Comparable Group
         has a greater  reliance on equity and borrowings  than Carnegie with an
         average deposit to asset ratio of 66.68%, a borrowing ratio of 7.45% of
         assets and equity to assets of 24.50%.  The Bank's  lack of  borrowings
         leaves  room for an  additional  funding  source in the  future and its
         equity to assets ratio after the conversion will be 13.82%.

         Figure 30 illustrates,  the Bank has the highest deposit growth rate of
         13.45%.

         Capitalization - The Comparable  Group's average equity to assets ratio
         of 24.50% is higher than the Bank's ratio of 7.00%, and even the lowest
         ratio in the Comparable Group will be above the Bank's pro forma equity
         to assets ratio of 13.82% at the midpoint of the valuation range.

         Intangible  Levels  - One of the  most  important  factors  influencing
         market values is the level of intangibles  that an institution  carries
         on its books.  The Comparable  Group has a limited level of intangibles
         averaging 0.66% of equity.  Thrifts trade more on tangible book than on
         book. The Bank had no intangible assets.

         Interest  Rate Risk - The Bank has a moderate  level of  interest  rate
         risk,  evidenced by a net portfolio value that falls below the starting
         level of tangible equity at the +200 basis point rate shock.

The Bank's asset base has increased its reliance on the wholesale market and the
additional  capital will most likely  increase this reliance.  The Bank's market
value should be adjusted downward in comparison to the Comparable Group for this
measure.

The asset quality of an institution is an important determinant of market value.
The investment community considers levels of nonperforming loans, REO and levels
of ALLL in assessing the  attractiveness  of investing in the common stock of an
institution.

The Bank has a lower  level of  non-performing  loans  ("NPL") to total loans at
0.44% when compared to the Comparable Group at 0.96%. However, the Bank recently
bought a property at sheriff sale for $480 thousand,  with an appraised value of
$540 thousand,  causing the nonperforming  assets to assets ratio to be 3.12% at
December 31, 1997. Based on the low level of nonperforming  loans, the appraised
value of the other real  estate  and solid  reserve  levels,  no  adjustment  is
warranted for this element.

              EARNINGS QUALITY, 
          PREDICTABILITY AND GROWTH
- -------------------------------------------------


The earnings quality,  predictability and growth are critical  components in the
establishment  of market  values for thrifts.  Thrift  earnings are  primarily a
function of:

          o     net interest income

          o     loan loss provision

          o     non-interest income

          o     non-interest expense

The quality and  predictability  of earnings is dependent  on both  internal and
external  factors.  Some internal  factors include the mix of the balance sheet,
the interest rate sensitivity of the balance sheet,  the asset quality,  and the
infrastructure  in place to deliver  the assets and  liabilities  to the public.
External factors include the competitive market for both assets and liabilities,
the global interest rate scenario, local economic factors and regulatory issues.

Each of these factors can influence the earnings of an institution,  and each of
these factors is volatile.  Investors prefer stability and consistency. As such,
solid,  consistent earnings are preferred to high but risky earnings.  Investors
also prefer  earnings to be diversified  and not entirely  dependent on interest
income.

The Bank's net loss,  for the year ended  December 31, 1997, of $54 thousand was
due to one time expenses of $146 thousand,  tax adjusted. On a normalized basis,
the Bank's net income for 1997 would have been $92 thousand.

On an adjusted basis,  the Bank's ROAA and ROAE would have been 0.61% and 7.88%,
respectively.  The adjusted return on asset ratio is below the Comparable  Group
median,  however,  the adjusted  return on equity ratio is above the  Comparable
Group, therefore, no adjustment is warranted.

Currently,  investors  are focusing on earnings  sustainability  as the interest
rate  volatility has caused wide  variation in income  levels.  With the intense
competition  for both assets and  deposits,  banks can not easily  replace  lost
spread and margin with balance sheet growth.

The Bank's  earnings,  in absolute  dollars,  are a fraction of the  Comparables
which  allows  little room to absorb  unforeseen  expenses.  Based on the Bank's
historical  earnings  performance,  a downward  adjustment  is  warranted to the
market value for earnings.

                MARKET AREA
- -------------------------------------------------


The market area that an institution serves has a significant impact on value, as
future success is  interrelated  with the economic,  demographic and competitive
aspects of the market. Specifics on the Bank's market were delineated in Section
2 - Market Area  Analysis.  The  following are  discussions  with respect to the
various data sets utilized for the market analysis

         Demographic Data - This is a densely  populated urban market,  with age
         distributions  higher  than the county and state in the 25 to 34, 35 to
         44 and 65 and over age ranges,  education  levels  higher than average,
         income distributions higher than the county and state for income levels
         $35,000 and above and a median property value above that of the county.

         Customer  Segmentation  Data - This  market  has  approximately  37,000
         households  of which 45% are in the  Mainstream  Singles and 37% are in
         the Mainstream  Families  customer  groups.  Of the customer  segments,
         almost  20% are  considered  to be  Settled In and 13% are On Their Own
         (see pages 4-11 through 4-14 for descriptions).

         Product  Propensity  Data - The  retail  market has an  estimated  $857
         million  in  deposits,  $1.0  billion  in  loans  and $827  million  in
         investments.  The propensities are highest for noninterest DDA accounts
         and home equity,  auto,  student,  other personal  loans,  and personal
         lines of credit.  An above average  number of households  used a branch
         within the last  month,  have ATM or debit  cards,  pay their  bills by
         phone,  have direct deposit and use electronic  banking or home banking
         services.

         Business Data - Of the businesses in a 3 mile radius,  42.6% are in the
         services  industry,  though the per household density is less than that
         of the county.

         Competitive Data - The Bank's branch, as mentioned earlier,  is located
         in  Carnegie,  Pennsylvania.  Due to the nature of the  Bank's  service
         area, the  competition  was defined as all branches within a three mile
         radius of the Bank's  facility.  Within 100 feet of the Bank's  branch,
         Mellon Bank, PNC and National City Bank each have a branch with deposit
         levels at least two times that of  Carnegie's.  PNC was the only one of
         the three to grow its deposits,  but offers a slightly more  convenient
         location.  Carnegie,  despite  its lack of  convenience  services,  has
         generated growth of almost 50% over the four year period ended June 30,
         1997.

Based on these factors no adjustment is warranted for this factor.

- -------------------------------------------------
               MANAGEMENT
- -------------------------------------------------


The  Bank  has  developed  a good  management  team  with  considerable  banking
experience.  The Bank's organizational chart is reasonable for an institution of
its size and complexity. The Board is active and oversees and advises on all key
strategic  and policy  decisions and holds the  management  to high  performance
standards.

As such, no adjustment appears to be warranted for this factor.

- -------------------------------------------------
                DIVIDENDS
- -------------------------------------------------


Historically,  banks have not established  dividend  policies  immediately at or
after conversion to stock ownership.  Rather, newly converted  institutions,  in
general,  have preferred to establish an earnings track record, fully invest the
conversion proceeds,  and allow for seasoning of the stock before establishing a
dividend policy.  In the late 1980's and early 1990's however,  there has been a
tendency toward initiating dividend policies concurrent with the conversion as a
means of increasing the attractiveness of the issue and to utilize the proceeds.

The last few years  have seen yet  another  shift  away from  dividend  policies
concurrent with  conversion.  Recent issues have been fully or over  subscribing
without  the  need  for  the  additional  enticement  of  dividends.  After  the
conversion is another issue,  however.  Recent  pressures on ROE and on internal
rate of returns to investors  has prompted the industry  toward cash  dividends.
This  trend is  exacerbated  by the lack of growth  potential.  Typically,  when
institutions  are in a growth mode, they issue stock dividends or do not declare
a dividend.  When growth is stunted,  these  institutions  shift toward reducing
equity levels and thus utilize cash dividends as a tool in this regard.

Eight of the ten Comparable  institutions  had declared  dividends.  The average
dividend payout ratio for the Comparable  Group was 97.65%,  ranging from a high
of 609.30% to a low of 0.00%. The Bank will have the capital levels to afford to
pay dividends and, therefore, no adjustment is indicated for this factor.

           LIQUIDITY OF THE ISSUE

The Comparable  Group is by definition  composed only of companies that trade in
the public markets with all of the Comparables trading on NASDAQ. Typically, the
number  of  shares  outstanding  and  the  market  capitalization   provides  an
indication  of how much  liquidity  there will be in a given  stock.  The actual
liquidity can be measured by volume traded over a given period of time.

The market  capitalization  values of the  Comparable  Group range from a low of
$7.36 million to a high of $22.74 million with an average market  capitalization
of $12.29  million.  The Bank expects to have $2.5 million of market  capital at
the midpoint on a pro forma basis.

Since the size of the  offering  is small,  it is  unlikely  that an active  and
liquid trading market will develop and be maintained. It is anticipated the Bank
will be traded on the OTC Bulletin Board.  Therefore,  a downward adjustment for
this factor appears warranted.

             SUBSCRIPTION INTEREST
- -------------------------------------------------


Based on the stock  appreciation  for both thrift stocks and for the U.S. equity
market in general,  the market for public  offerings as attracted a  significant
level of  attention.  The market for public  offerings  is driven by the lack of
supple of stocks to meet the demand  created  primarily  by the growth of mutual
funds. Thrift IPO's have received a greater amount of attention due to the price
"pops" of recent standard conversions.

As illustrated, thrift stocks have appreciated substantially on the first day of
trading.  Additionally,  the  vast  majority  of the  recent  conversions,  have
oversubscribed and have closed at the supermaximum of the estimated value range.

As such, an upward  adjustment  for  subscription  interest is warranted at this
time.

          RECENT REGULATORY MATTERS
- -------------------------------------------------


As a result of large after-market price increases of conversions during 1993 and
early 1994,  the  regulatory  agencies have issued  guidelines on appraisals for
conversions.  The  regulators  publicly  indicated  that only  modest  immediate
after-market  price increases are appropriate for converting  institutions.  The
guidelines  issued  November  22, 1994,  indicate  that the  reasonableness  and
adequacy  of an  appraisal  will be  partially  judged  by the  immediate  price
movement of the conversion  stock in the  after-market,  using a very short time
frame of the second day of trading  following  closing.  The guidelines  further
discuss that the average price  appreciation  for all IPO's has been between 10%
and 15%, which was deemed to be too high.

At around the same time  period,  IPO pricing  was  elevated on a book basis and
IPOs in late 1994 did not experience much appreciation.  In fact,  numerous IPOs
actually  depreciated.  1995 brought  back lower  premiums to book but they have
been rising  throughout 1996 to approximately  the same levels as late 1994. The
trend has continued in 1997 and 1998 with IPO's popping over 40% on average, for
the first day of trading.

The recent interest in thrift IPO's has caused large oversubscriptions, which in
turn  have  caused  large  price  appreciations  in the  aftermarket.  Recently,
regulators have been indicating the need for increased  pricing of new issues in
the attempt lessen the  aftermarket  appreciation.  Also,  regulators  have been
concerned with capital  redistributions from thrifts which have converted within
the past three years. Regulatory agencies are publicly indicating that they will
enforce the limits of stock buy backs to: 0% in the first year, 5% in the second
year and 5% in the third year.

This threat to newly converted institutions, of not being able to use all of the
capital markets tools available, will hurt the stocks attractiveness, as it will
put them at a significant competitive disadvantage to the rest of the industry.

As such,  a  downward  adjustment  for this  measure is  warranted  based on the
uncertainty surrounding the regulatory environment.

As the Figures 40 and 41 illustrate,  the  performance of the SNL index has been
robust through 1992,  1993,  1994 and 1995.  The dip in the index,  occurring in
late 1994,  was the product of the  interest  rate rise during that period along
with the overall  uneasiness  in the stock market in general.  The rate scenario
covering the same period as the SNL index can be seen in the following chart.

As the graph demonstrates,  the rate rise in late 1994 correlates closely to the
fall in thrift prices.  The drop in rates in 1995 was one of the primary drivers
of the rapid rise in the SNL index.  During 1996,  rates increased  slightly and
then remained stable, fueling the rise in the conversion prices. 1997 has seen a
continuation of this trend, with the average IPO pricing at 70.9%, 69.7%, 70.9%,
and 75.9% of book value for the first,  second,  third,  and fourth  quarters of
1997, respectively, and 78.5% in the first quarter of 1998.

Thrift pricing in general was robust in 1995 due to the falling  interest rates,
the industry consolidation and renewed earnings.  Contrasting this view, in late
1994  investors  faced  shrinking  spreads and  margins due to rising  rates and
consolidation  that was tailing off and slowing down. The  blockbuster  level of
consolidations  have led many investors to think that all  institutions are fair
game for acquisitions and prices have risen accordingly.

As  Figure 42 and 43 show,  in 1997,  the flat  interest  rate  environment  has
contributed  to the  appreciation  in the SNL  index.  In  addition,  the market
continues to demonstrate evidence of acquisition speculation.  For the first two
months of 1998, the thrift market appreciation has leveled off as illustrated in
figure 42.

A downward  adjustment for this measure is warranted,  as the  institution  will
trade at a discount to the market until the capital is adequately invested.

From 1994 through March 11, 1998,  thrift deal prices remained high.  Nationally
and regionally,  book multiples and earnings multiples are up in 1998.  However,
for deals less than $10 million,  earnings,  assets,  and deposit  multiples are
down, while book multiples are up.

Currently,  there is one thrift acquisition  pending in Pennsylvania.  Sovereign
Bancorp  is in the  process of  acquiring  ML  Bancorp.  The deal price for this
acquisition equates to a price to earnings of 21.7x and a price to book of 200%.
The acquisition multiples associated with all deals are shown below.

No  adjustment  is warranted  for this  factor,  as the Bank will not be readily
available for acquisition immediately following the conversion.

Overall,  FinPro  believes  that the  Bank  pro-forma  market  value  should  be
discounted   relative  to  the  Comparable   Group,   reflecting  the  following
adjustments.

As a  result  of  all  the  factors  discussed,  a  full  offering  discount  of
approximately 50% on an earnings multiple basis and a 35% discount on a price to
book basis appears to be reasonable.

- -------------------------------------------------
              VALUATION APPROACH
- -------------------------------------------------


In applying the accepted  valuation  methodology  promulgated by the regulators,
i.e.,  the pro-forma  market value  approach,  four key pricing  multiples  were
considered. The four multiples include:

         Price to earnings ("P/E")

         Price to tangible book value ("P/TB")

         Price to book value ("P/B")

         Price to assets ("P/A")

All of the approaches were calculated on a pro-forma basis including the effects
of the conversion  proceeds.  All of the  assumptions  utilized are presented in
Exhibits 10.

To  ascertain  the  pro-forma  estimated  market  value of the Bank,  the market
multiples for the Comparable  Group,  all publicly traded thrifts and the recent
(1997 to date) standard conversions were assessed.

Since thrift  earnings in general have had a high degree of volatility  over the
past  decade,  the  P/B  approach  had  gained  in  importance  and is  utilized
frequently as the benchmark for market value. It is interesting to note that the
P/B  approach  is more of a benchmark  than a reliable  valuation  technique.  A
better  approach  is the P/TB  approach.  In  general,  investors  tend to price
financial institutions on a tangible book basis, because it incorporates the P/B
approach adjusted for intangibles.  Most recently, the P/E approach has regained
favor among investors.

The  evidence  of the  movement  towards  the  P/E  Multiple  can be seen in the
acquisition,  trading and IPO markets.  The P/LTM EPS multiple for the completed
mergers is 19.9x,  for all public thrifts the trading P/LTM EPS is 20.4x and for
recent standard conversions is 16.8x.

As such,  in  estimating  the market value for the Bank,  the most  emphasis was
placed on the P/E approach. The P/B and P/TB were given much less weight and the
P/A ratio was not given much weight at all.

In terms of the market multiples, most weight was given to the Comparable Group.
Less weight was ascribed to all public thrifts and all Pennsylvania thrifts. The
multiples  for  the  Comparable   Group,   all  publicly  traded  thrifts,   and
Pennsylvania publicly traded thrifts are shown in Exhibit 8.

Based upon the premiums and  discounts  defined in the section  above,  the Bank
pricing at the midpoint is estimated to be $1,800,000.  Based upon a range below
and above the midpoint value,  the relative values are $1,530,000 at the minimum
and $2,070,000 at the maximum respectively. At the supermaximum of the range the
offering value would be $2,380,500.

At the various levels of the estimated value range, the offering would result in
the following offering data:

As figure 54 demonstrates,  the Bank is priced at a discount of 53.32% on a core
earnings  basis.  A discount  of 34.61% is applied to the Bank  relative  to the
Comparable Group on a price to tangible book basis.

Recently,  thrift  public  offerings  have been  over-subscribing  and have been
closing at the  supermaximum  of the estimated  value range.  Therefore,  a more
meaningful  comparison  would be the Bank's multiples at the supermaximum of the
EVR to the Comparable  Group.  Figure 55 shows the Bank (at the supermaximum) is
priced at a 43.37% discount on a core earnings basis and at a 28.18% discount on
a tangible book basis.

The Bank (at the  supermaximum  of the EVR) is priced at a 1.16%  discount  on a
tangible book basis when compared to recent standard conversions.

As the core earnings for recent standard conversion is not available,  it is not
possible to compare the earnings multiple for the midpoint or supermax, however,
Carnegie's core earnings  multiple at the supermax,  when compared to the recent
standard   conversion   earnings   multiple   represents  a  discount  of  2.44%
((16.80-16.39)/16.80) and is offset by the premium, at the supermax, of 8.55% on

             VALUATION CONCLUSION
- -------------------------------------------------


It is, therefore, our opinion that as of March 16, 1998, the estimated pro-forma
market value of the Bank in a full offering was  $1,800,000 at the midpoint of a
range with a minimum of  $1,530,000  to a maximum of $2,070,000 at 15% below and
15% above the midpoint of the range  respectively.  Assuming an adjusted maximum
value of 15% above the maximum value, the adjusted maximum value or supermaximum
value in a full offering is  $2,380,500.  The stock will be issued at $10.00 per
share.

Pro-forma  comparisons of the Bank's value range with the Comparable  Group, all
public thrifts,  Pennsylvania  public thrifts and the recent standard conversion
group is shown in Exhibit 10.

ABOUT THE TRANSACTION

1.       WHAT IS A CONVERSION?

         Carnegie  Savings Bank is now a federally  chartered mutual savings and
         loan association with directors being elected by our members. After the
         Conversion,  we will be a stock savings and loan association owned by a
         holding company. The holding company,  Carnegie Financial Corporation ,
         will be owned by stockholders  who will have voting rights with respect
         to certain key business matters. The holding company is offering shares
         of  common  stock to  certain  depositors,  borrowers  ,  tax-qualified
         employee  plans of  Carnegie  Savings  Bank and  depending  upon market
         conditions and the availability of shares, may offer shares to selected
         persons in a public offering.

2.       WHAT IS Carnegie Financial Corporation AND WHY WAS IT FORMED?

         Carnegie  Financial  Corporation is a newly  organized  holding company
         created  by  Carnegie  Savings  Bank   specifically  to  purchase  100%
         ownership in Carnegie  Savings Bank. The holding company  currently has
         no stockholders,  but is offering shares of its common stock to certain
         depositors, borrowers, tax-qualified employee plans of Carnegie Savings
         Bank and  depending  upon market  conditions  and the  availability  of
         shares, may offer shares to selected persons in a public offering.  The
         additional  capital provided through the offering of Carnegie Financial
         Corporation  stock will support  future  banking  activities  and local
         expansion of the financial  services currently offered through Carnegie
         Savings Bank.

3.       WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS AND RISKS OF CONVERSION?

         capital,  enabling  it  to  do  many  things,  including  possibly  the
         following:

         - support  expansion of financial  services - enhance ability to expand
         through acquisitions - better compete with other financial institutions
         - facilitate future access to the capital markets

         Please review "Use of Proceeds" in the Prospectus for Carnegie  Savings
         Bank' and the  holding  company's  initial  plans  with  respect to the
         capital to be raised in the Conversion.

         There are certain risks in investing in Carnegie Financial  Corporation
         common stock.  An offer is made only by a prospectus  accompanied  by a
         stock order form and certification.  Please review the prospectus prior

         account  which  will  continue  to be insured  by the  Federal  Deposit
         Insurance  Corporation  (FDIC) to the maximum legal limit. Your savings

         under their loan agreements will not be affected.

         Eligible depositors and certain borrowers will be given the opportunity
         to subscribe or place an order to purchase stock in Carnegie  Financial
         Corporation  and  thereby  participate  in any gain in the value of the
         shares  and  future  dividend  payments,  if  any.   Furthermore,   the

              by the FDIC up to legally applicable limits and will earn interest
              until completion of the Conversion.

         Yes.  However,  every member is  encouraged  to send a proxy card(s) to
         Carnegie  Savings Bank prior to the meeting even if the member plans to
         attend the special  meeting.  The proxy is revocable and can be changed

         Yes.  Please  vote ALL the proxy cards you  receive.  You may have more

         been consolidated, it is not permissible to consolidate all accounts.

24.      IF A SAVINGS ACCOUNT IS IN JOINT NAME, MUST BOTH NAMES BE SIGNED ON THE
         PROXY CARD?

         No.  Two  or  more  signatures  are  required  only  when  two or  more
         signatures are needed to withdraw funds from the account.

25.      IF I DON'T BUY STOCK WILL I HAVE A VOTE AT FUTURE ANNUAL MEETINGS?

4.     Letter to Members in "Dark Blue-Sky" States and Foreign Accounts


May ___, 1998


Dear Member:

       Carnegie  Savings Bank ("Carnegie  Savings") is converting from a federal
mutual  savings and loan  association  to a federal  stock savings bank with the
concurrent formation of a holding company, Carnegie Financial Corporation

       Enclosed you will find a Proxy  Statement and  Prospectus  describing the
conversion and proxy card(s).  As a current member of Carnegie  Savings,  we ask
you to participate in the conversion by reviewing the  information  provided and
voting on the conversion by completing and mailing the enclosed proxy card(s) in
the enclosed postage-paid  envelope as soon as possible.  The Board of Directors
recommends that you vote in favor of the Plan of Conversion.

       Although you may vote on Carnegie Savings's Plan of Conversion,  Carnegie
Financial Corporation unfortunately is unable to either offer or sell its common
stock to you  because  (i) the small  number  of  eligible  subscribers  in your
jurisdiction  makes  registration or qualification of the common stock under the
securities  laws  of  your  jurisdiction  impractical,  for  reasons  of cost or
otherwise; or (ii) the small number of eligible subscribers in your jurisdiction
makes  registration or  qualification  of Carnegie  Financial  Corporation,  its
officers, directors, employees and persons acting on its behalf as broker/dealer
in your jurisdiction impractical, for reasons of cost or otherwise. Accordingly,
neither this letter nor the enclosed  material  should be considered an offer to
sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the common stock of Carnegie Financial
Corporation

       If you have any questions  about your voting rights or the  conversion in
general, please call the Stock Center at (412) 276-0535.

Sincerely,



Shirley Chiesa
President
