                      FIRST MIDWEST TO ACQUIRE CF BANCORP

NAPERVILLE, IL., JUNE 1, 1995 -- First Midwest Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:FMBI) has
announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire CF Bancorp,
Inc. (NASDAQ:CFBC), the holding company of Citizens Federal Bank of Davenport,
Iowa.

Under the agreement, CF Bancorp shareholders will receive 1.4545 shares of First
Midwest Bancorp common stock for each share of CF common stock owned in a tax
free exchange.  Based on First Midwest Bancorp's May 31 closing price of $24.25,
this results in an implied price for each share of CF common stock of $35.27 and
a total transaction valued at approximately $32.3 million based upon total CF
common shares currently outstanding.

For many years First Midwest has operated in the Illinois half of the Illinois -
Iowa Quad-Cities area comprised of the cities of Moline and Rock Island,
Illinois and Davenport and Bettendorf, Iowa.  Its First Midwest Bank
headquartered in Moline, Illinois has approximately $375 million in assets and
operates seven offices all in Illinois.  CF Bancorp's $225 million Citizens
Federal Savings Bank is headquartered in Davenport, Iowa with additional offices
in Davenport and Bettendorf, Iowa.  The acquisition of CF Bancorp represents a
significant in-market consolidation

                                    - more -
<PAGE>
 
that will see the resulting First Midwest Bank having assets of approximately
$600 million and operating seven full service offices in both the Illinois and
Iowa halves of the Quad-Cities. As such it will be the largest financial
institution serving the entire Quad-Cities area.

The Quad-Cities area is a significant midwest market that is sometimes not
recognized as the diversified, dynamic and growing area that it represents.  As
an MSA, the Quad-Cities is an area having a population approaching 400,000,
employment in excess of 200,000 jobs and annual retail sales of some $2.5
billion.  As such, from each of the perspectives of population, employment and
retail sales the Quad-Cities MSA is larger than the MSA of each of Peoria,
Rockford, Springfield, Bloomington-Normal and Champaign-Urbana, Illinois.

Meaningful cost savings are anticipated from this in-market consolidation as
well as revenue enhancements.  The savings are expected to be dominantly related
to redundant back-office operations and related areas.  A one time merger
transaction charge that is in the process of being quantified will be announced
and taken prior to consummation.

Commenting on the announcement, Robert P. O'Meara, First Midwest Bancorp
President and CEO, said, "the affiliation with CF Bancorp, a very successful and
highly respected company, represents a significant opportunity to combine our
respective commercial and retail banking strengths while affording us the
ability to serve the entire Quad-Cities area".

                                    - more -

Paul L. Eckert, CF Bancorp President and CEO, said, "we look forward to our
combination with First Midwest Bancorp, an organization we have come to know
very well. Their business philosophy, like ours, is focused on satisfying
customers' financial needs and, at the same time, maintaining strong local
commitments to communities served. This combination will significantly benefit
our customers and the entire Quad-Cities area."

In connection with the agreement CF has granted First Midwest an option to
purchase up to 19.9% of the common shares of CF under certain circumstances in
the event the transaction is terminated.

The merger has been approved by the Boards of Directors of both First Midwest
Bancorp and CF Bancorp and is subject to shareholder ratification and customary
regulatory approvals.  The merger is expected to be completed in late 1995 or
early 1996.

Following the merger, First Midwest Bancorp, Inc. will be an approximate $3.1
billion company engaged in banking, trust, investment management and mortgage
businesses operating 54 offices. As such, it is Illinois' third largest bank
holding company with approximately 80% of its assets situated in the Metro
Chicago area.
