INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS
Prospective purchasers should consider carefully the following factors
associated with the ownership of the Common Stock together with the other
information contained in this Prospectus.
COMPETITION. Illinois, and more specifically the metropolitan Chicago area,
is a highly competitive market for banking and related financial services.
Since this area is the Company's focus market, the Bank and Mortgage Company are
exposed to varying types and levels of competition from associated industries.
In general, however, the Bank and Mortgage Company compete with other banking
institutions, savings and loan associations, personal loan and finance
companies, and credit unions within each market area. The Trust and Asset
Management Companies compete with retail and discount stock brokers, investment
advisors, mutual funds, insurance companies, and to a lesser extent, financial
institutions. Factors influencing the type of competition experienced by the
Trust and Asset Management Companies generally involve the variety of products
and services that can be offered to clients. Satisfying the needs of the
client, in terms of providing quality services and tailored products at
competitive prices, primarily dictates the competitive advantage within the
industry.
LOAN PORTFOLIO RISKS. Inherent in the Company's banking operations are risks
associated with the loan portfolio, including credit, interest rate, prepayment
and liquidity risk. The Company manages such risks through adherence to
policies and procedures designed to control and/or limit risk, such as
underwriting and asset/liability policies and procedures. Further, loan loss
reserve policies provide Management with recommended levels of loan reserves,
mitigating the financial statement impact of unforeseen future losses on loans.
Overall loan portfolio risk inherent in the Company is not believed by
Management to be in excess of risks exposed to others in the same or similar
industry.
IMPACT OF INTEREST RATE CHANGES. Interest rate risk is an inherent part of
the banking business as financial intermediaries gather deposits and borrow
other funds to finance earning assets. Risk results when either contractual
relationships or prevailing market conditions cause rates paid on deposits and
other borrowings to reprice on a basis which does not coincide with the
repricing events affecting yields on earning assets. If more assets than
liabilities reprice in a given time period, the balance sheet is considered
asset-sensitive. In a rising interest rate environment, this position would
generally result in favorable growth in net interest income, and in a declining
interest rate environment, net interest income would be adversely affected.
Conversely, if more liabilities than assets reprice, the balance sheet is
considered liability-sensitive. In a rising rate environment, this position
would generally result in an adverse effect on net interest income, and in a
declining interest rate environment the effect would be favorable.
ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND MONETARY POLICIES. Conditions beyond Management's
control may have a significant impact on changes in net interest income from one
period to another. Examples of such conditions could include: (a) the strength
of credit demands by customers; (b) fiscal and debt management policies of the
federal government, including changes in tax laws; (c) the Federal Reserve
Board's monetary policy, including the percentage of deposits that must be held
in the form of non-earning cash reserves; (d) the introduction and growth of new
investment instruments and transaction accounts by non-bank financial
competitors; and (e) changes in rules and regulations governing payment of
interest on deposit accounts.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION. The Company and its Affiliates are subject to
regulation and supervision by various governmental regulatory authorities
including, but not limited to, the Federal Reserve Board, the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the
"FDIC"), the Illinois Commissioner of Banks and Trust Companies, the Arizona
Department of Insurance, the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing
authorities. Financial institutions and their holding companies are extensively
regulated under federal and state law.
Federal and state laws and regulations generally applicable to financial
institutions, such as the Company and the Affiliates, regulate, among other
things, the scope of business, investments, reserves against deposits, capital
levels relative to operations, the nature and amount of collateral for loans,
the establishment of branches, mergers, consolidations and dividends. This
supervision and regulation is intended primarily for the protection of the
FDIC's bank insurance fund and depositors of a financial institution.
Consequently, laws and regulations may impose limitations on the Company that
may not be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The
effect of such statutes, regulations and policies can be significant, and cannot
be predicted with a high degree of certainty.

<PAGE>
FDIC INSURANCE PREMIUMS. The savings deposits of the Company and CF are
insured up to $100,000 per insured member (as defined by law and regulation) by
the FDIC with such insurance backed by the full faith and credit of the United
States government. The Company's deposits are dominantly insured by the Bank
Insurance Fund ("BIF") while CF's deposits are insured by the Savings
Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"), both of which are administered by the FDIC.
As insurer, the FDIC assesses deposit insurance premiums and is authorized to
conduct examinations of, and require reporting by, FDIC-insured institutions.
Deposit insurance premiums are based upon risk classifications that are
determined by the insured institution's capital ratios and the result of such
institution's supervisory examinations. Institutions assigned higher risk
classifications pay deposit insurance premiums at a higher rate than the
institutions assigned lower risk classifications.
The Company and CF are currently assessed an annual deposit insurance premium
at a rate of $.23 per $100 of insured deposits, which is the lowest insurance
rate imposed by the FDIC.
The BIF is believed to have reached its legally required maximum funding level
during the second quarter of 1995 and, if the FDIC confirms that such level has
been achieved, the agency is allowed to lower the deposit insurance premium on
BIF-insured deposits to an average of $.045 per $100 of deposits.
The SAIF, however, is currently undercapitalized. Federal banking regulators
and lawmakers are believed to be near an agreement on a plan to bolster the SAIF
by the assessment of a special, one-time charge on SAIF-insured deposits of
approximately .85% of such deposits. The assessment of such a charge is
believed to be sufficient to recapitalize the SAIF and, at least initially,
allow future SAIF-insured deposit premiums to be lowered to the same average
premium applicable to BIF. Furthermore, after the special assessment is
charged, federal banking regulators and law makers are believed to favor the
merging of the BIF and SAIF Funds. Congressional hearings on the resolution of
the BIF and SAIF issues have been held and future hearings are scheduled. The
outcome of such hearings and the impact on deposit insurance premiums assessed
by the BIF and SAIF, the potential assessment of a one-time charge on SAIF-
insured deposits, as well as the likelihood of the merger of the BIF and SAIF
cannot be determined at this time.
ACQUISITION CHARGE. On or about December 31, 1995, the Company will consummate
its earlier-announced acquisition of CF (see "Pending Acquisitions" located on
page 3). Incident to such acquisition, the Company will record an acquisition
charge (currently estimated to be in the range of $3,700 to $4,200.) The actual
acquisition charge will be determined and recorded in the quarter in which the
acquisition is consummated. Information with respect to the financial condition
and results of operations for CF, including proforma financial statements of the
Company reflecting such acquisition, is located beginning on page 8 of this
Prospectus under the section entitled "Recent Developments".
ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS. The Company has taken a number of actions which
could have the effect of discouraging a takeover attempt that might be
beneficial to stockholders who wish to receive a premium for their shares from a
potential bidder. The Company has adopted a stockholder rights plan which would
cause substantial dilution to a person who attempts to acquire the Company on
terms not approved by the Company's Board of Directors. The stockholder rights
plan may therefore have the effect of delaying or preventing any change in
control and deterring any prospective acquisition of the Company. The Company's
Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws also contain provisions which may have
the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control. The provisions
include: (i) the classification of the Board of Directors; (ii) the restriction
that directors can only be removed for cause and only by a majority of the
directors or by the vote of 67% of the voting securities of the Company; (iii)
the authority of the Board of Directors to issue series of preferred stock with
such voting rights and other provisions as the Board of Directors may determine;
and (iv) a super-majority voting requirement to amend provisions of the
Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws relating to the classification of the
Board and removal of directors. In addition, Section 203 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law may have the effect of discouraging takeover attempts
directed at the Company. Furthermore, employment agreements with certain senior
executives of the Company provide for severance pay in the event of a "Change of
Control" of the Company as such term is defined in such agreements.

USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company expects to receive approximately $3,339,700 from the sale of 125,000
shares of Common Stock in this Offering, after deducting estimated expenses. It
is anticipated that the Company will use the net proceeds, including interest
thereon, for general corporate purposes, including working capital and possible
future acquisitions. Pending such use the net proceeds will be invested in
short term discretionary investments. The Company presently has no agreements,
commitments, understandings or arrangements for the use of the proceeds for
acquisition purposes.

with a meaningful current return on their investment and, as part of the
Company's dividend policy, the Board of Directors reviews the Company's dividend
payout ratio periodically to ensure that it is consistent with internal capital
guidelines and industry standards. As a result of improved performance from

at an average cost of $26.23 per share. The purchases, in part, are being used
to fund the exercise of stock options by employees and sales of treasury stock
to employee benefit plans. The Company intends to continue to utilize the
common stock repurchase program as needs and market conditions warrant.

bid reported by NASDAQ. Resales by such broker dealer may be made from time to
time at prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices.
