NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES:

COMPANY DESCRIPTION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Until January 28, 1993,  Old Stone  Corporation  (The  "Company" or "OSC") was a
unitary savings and loan holding company which  conducted  substantially  all of
its  business  primarily  through its  ownership  of Old Stone  Bank,  a Federal
Savings Bank and its  subsidiaries  (the "Bank" or "Old Stone").  On January 29,
1993, the Office of Thrift  Supervision  of the United States  Department of the
Treasury  (the "OTS")  placed the Bank into  receivership  due to the Bank being
critically  undercapitalized.  The OTS  created  a new  institution,  Old  Stone
Federal  Savings  Bank ("Old Stone  Federal") to assume all deposits and certain
assets and  liabilities of Old Stone.  The  Resolution  Trust  Corporation  (the
"RTC") was appointed  Receiver to handle all matters related to Old Stone and as
Conservator of Old Stone Federal.

As a result of the receivership of the Bank, the Company has undergone  material
changes in the nature of its  business  and is no longer  operating as a unitary
savings and loan holding  company.  As of March 31, 1996 the Company's  business
activities included its only surviving subsidiary, Old Stone Securities Company,
a registered  securities  broker-dealer  which  provides  brokerage  services to
retail and institutional clients.

The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting   principles  for  interim
financial  information and with the  instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals)  considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been  included and  operating  results for the three months ended March 31, 1996
are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended  December 31, 1996.  For further  information,  refer to the  consolidated
financial  statements and notes thereto included in the Old Stone  Corporation's
Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31, 1995.  All material
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.  Certain previously
reported amounts have been restated to conform with the current presentation.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Current Operations

As a result of the Bank Closing,  the Corporation's  present business activities
include its only surviving significant subsidiary, Old Stone Securities Company,
a registered  securities  broker-dealer  which  provides  brokerage  services to
retail and institutional clients.

Old Stone  Securities'  loss before income taxes was $27,058 for the three month
period ended March 31,  1996,  compared to a loss of $29,586 for the three month
period ended March 31, 1995.

Management has invested,  and intends in the future to invest, the Corporation's
assets on a short-term  basis.  While the  Corporation's  Board of Directors has
considered  selling Old Stone Securities,  the Board has determined not to do so
at the present time.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 1996, the  Corporation  had $.8 million in assets,  $1.2 million in
total  liabilities,   $19.9  million  in  redeemable   preferred  stock,  and  a
stockholders'  deficit of ($20.3)  million,  compared to $1.1 million in assets,
$1.4 million in total liabilities,  $19.9 million in redeemable  preferred stock
and stockholders' deficit of ($20.2) million at December 31, 1995.

The Corporation's assets are currently being invested  short-term,  and expenses
have been reduced to a level that management  believes is commensurate  with the
Corporation's current activities pending resolution of any potential claims.

Results of Operations

Total income increased $4,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 as
compared to the same period in 1995. This increase was primarily attributable to
an  increase in other  income of $7,000 in the 1996  period over the  comparable
period in 1995 offset by a decrease in interest income of $5,000.

Interest  income was $7,000 for the three month  period  ended  March 31,  1996,
compared to $13,000  for the three month  period  ended  March 31,  1995.  Other
income was $39,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 1996,  compared to
$32,000 for the three  month  period  ended March 31,  1995.  The  increase  was
primarily due to higher fee income generated by Old Stone Securities Company.

Total expenses  increased $4,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 1996
as compared to the three month  period  ended March 31,  1995.  The increase was
primarily  attributable  to  increases  in other  expenses  of $6,000,  over the
comparable period in 1995.


<PAGE>


The  Corporation's  primary  operating  expenses have been legal and  accounting
expenses  as well as the  operating  expenses of Old Stone  Securities  Company.
Operating expenses (including salaries and benefits) were $128,000 for the three
month period  ended March 31, 1996,  compared to $124,000 for the same period in
1995.

As a result of the foregoing,  the Corporation  reported net loss of $71,000 for
the three month period  ended March 31,  1996,  compared to $71,000 for the same
period in 1995.

The loss per share  available for common  stockholders  was ($.09) for the three
month period ended March 31, 1996 after the deduction of preferred  dividends of
$677,000.  The loss per share available for common  stockholders  was ($.09) for
the three month  period  ended March 31, 1995 after the  deduction  of preferred
dividends of $677,000. No preferred or common dividends have been paid since the
second quarter of 1991 and the  Corporation  does not expect to pay dividends in
the  foreseeable  future.  Further,  the  Corporation is prohibited  from paying
dividends on the Common Stock until the  aggregate  deficiency  on the preferred
stock dividends is paid in full.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 3.  DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

     The Corporation  discontinued dividends to holders of its Cumulative Voting
Convertible  Preferred Stock, Series B (the "Preferred Stock"),  during 1991 and
does not expect to pay any dividends on such stock for the  foreseeable  future.
As a result of the failure to pay dividends on the Preferred Stock for more than
four quarters,  the holders of the Preferred Stock  collectively are entitled to
elect a number of directors of the Corporation constituting twenty percent (20%)
of the total  number of  directors  of the  Corporation  at the next  meeting of
stockholders  at  which  directors  are  to  be  elected.  Until  the  aggregate
deficiency is declared and fully paid on the Preferred  Stock,  the  Corporation
may not declare any dividends or make any other  distributions  on or redeem the
Common  Stock.  The total  amount  of the  arrearage  as of March  31,  1996 was
$11,306,671.
