Item 5.  Other Events
- ---------------------

         In  conjunction  with a  routine  regulatory  examination  of  Carnegie
Savings Bank (the "Bank") by the Office of Thrift  Supervision (the "OTS"),  the
OTS requested the Bank to enter into a Supervisory  Agreement (the "Agreement").
Carnegie Financial  Corporation (the "Company") is the parent holding company of
the Bank.

         The Agreement was signed today,  April 14, 2000, (the "Effective Date")
and will, among other things, place restrictions on the Bank's growth. Under the
Agreement,  the Bank may not  increase  its  assets in an amount  exceeding  net
interest  credited  on  deposit  liabilities  (or  earnings  credited  on  share
accounts)  during any calendar  quarter,  without prior written  approval of the
regional  director  of the OTS  (the  "Regional  Director").  Additionally,  the
Agreement requires the Bank or its Board of Directors to revise various policies
including 1) interest  rate risk  management,  2) strategic  planning to improve
earnings, 3) loan documentation and underwriting  policies, and 4) internal loan
and asset  classifications  policies.  The restrictions on the Bank's operations
are  immediately  effective  and the revision of certain of the Bank's  policies
must be completed within 90 days of the Effective Date.

         The Bank is a well  capitalized  institution and the Agreement does not
result in any  interruption  of the  Bank's  day-to-day  operations.  Shirley C.
Chiesa,  President and Chief Executive Officer, stated that, "the Bank is taking
immediate action to comply with the Agreement."

         The Bank is a federally  chartered  stock  savings bank  operating  one
full-service  office in Carnegie,  Pennsylvania  and has served its market since
1915. The Company's common stock is traded on the  over-the-counter  market with
quotations  available through the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board under the symbol
"CAFN".
