COMMERCIAL FEDERAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
(UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A. BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION AND PRESENTATION:
---------------------------------------
The unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared on an accrual basis
and include the accounts of Commercial Federal Corporation (the Corporation) and
its wholly-owned subsidiary, Commercial Federal Bank, a Federal Savings Bank
(the Bank), and all majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have not been audited
by independent auditors. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to fairly
present the financial statements have been included. The consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Corporation's June 30, 1996, Annual Report to
Stockholders. The results of operations for the three month period ended
September 30, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be
expected for the entire fiscal year 1997. Certain amounts in the prior fiscal
year periods have been reclassified for comparative purposes.
B. SUBSEQUENT EVENT -- STOCK SPLIT AUTHORIZED NOVEMBER 18, 1996:
------------------------------------------------------------
On November 18, 1996, the Board of Directors of the Corporation authorized a
three-for-two stock split to be effected in the form of a 50 percent stock
dividend. Par value will remain at $.01 per share. Fractional shares will be
paid in cash. The Board also declared a quarterly cash dividend of $.07 per
common share which represents an increase of five percent from last quarter when
the Corporation paid $.0667 per common share after adjusting for the
three-for-two split. The stock and cash dividend, payable to stockholders of
record as of December 31, 1996, will be paid on January 14, 1997. Pro forma
earnings (loss) and dividends declared per common share, giving retroactive
effect to the stock split, are presented below.

Financial information contained elsewhere in this Form 10-Q has not been
adjusted to reflect the effect of the stock split. Such financial information
will be adjusted when the stock split is distributed.
C. REPURCHASE OF COMMON STOCK:
--------------------------
On August 21, 1996, the Corporation consummated the repurchase of 1,250,100
shares (not adjusted for three-for-two stock split) of its common stock,
$0.01 par value, from CAI Corporation, a Dallas-based investment company, for an
aggregate purchase price of approximately $48,910,000, excluding $329,000 in
transaction costs incurred as of September 30, 1996. Such purchase price,
excluding transaction costs incurred by the Corporation for this repurchase,
consisted of cash consideration of approximately $28,227,000 and surrender of a
warrant (valued at approximately $20,683,000) which would have enabled the
Corporation to purchase 99 shares of non-voting common stock of CAI Corporation.
The repurchased shares represented 8.3% of the outstanding shares of the
Corporation's common stock prior to the repurchase. The cash portion of the
repurchase was financed in part by a short-term variable-rate loan from a
financial institution secured by 1,403,200 shares or 15.6% of the outstanding
common stock of the Bank. As consideration, the Corporation also reimbursed CAI
Corporation for certain expenses totaling $2,200,000 incurred in connection with
its ownership of the 1,250,100 shares (not adjusted for three-for-two stock
split), including costs and expenses incurred in connection with the 1995 proxy
contest, and paid CAI Corporation cash totaling $62,500 in lieu of the pro rata
portion of any dividend CAI Corporation otherwise would have received for the
quarter ended September 30, 1996. Such nonrecurring expenses paid to CAI
Corporation are included in other operating expenses.
D. FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE SPECIAL ASSESSMENT:
---------------------------------------------
During the quarter ended September 30, 1996, the Corporation incurred an after-
tax charge of $17,300,000 ($27,062,000 pre-tax) as a result of the imposition of
a special assessment by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to
recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF). In order to
recapitalize the SAIF, the Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996, effective
September 30, 1996, authorized the FDIC to impose a one-time special assessment
on institutions with SAIF-assessable deposits based on the amount determined by
the FDIC to be necessary to increase the reserve levels of the SAIF to the
designated reserve ratio of 1.25% of insured deposits. Institutions were
assessed at the rate of 65.7 basis points based on the amount of their SAIF-
assessable deposits as of March 31, 1995. This nonrecurring special assessment
totaling $27,062,000 pre-tax is recorded in the general and administrative
expenses section of the Consolidated Statement of Operations under a separate
line captioned "Federal deposit insurance special assessment." Such special
assessment reduced the Bank's tangible, core and risk-based capital at September
30, 1996, by $17,300,000. The Bank continues to exceed the minimum requirements
to be classified as a "well-capitalized" institution under applicable
regulations.
7
<PAGE>
E. REPEAL OF THRIFT BAD DEBT RESERVES FOR TAX PURPOSES:
----------------------------------------------------
In August 1996, changes in the federal tax law (i) repealed both the percentage
of taxable income and experience methods effective July 1, 1996, allowing a bad
debt deduction for specific charge-offs only, and (ii) require recapture into
taxable income over a six year period of tax bad debt reserves which exceed the
base year amount, adjusted for any loan portfolio shrinkage. These changes
resulted in the recognition to income tax expense of additional deferred tax
liabilities of approximately $103,000 in the first quarter of fiscal year 1997.
The remaining unrecognized deferred tax liability totaling approximately
$31,183,000 at September 30, 1996, could be recognized in the future, in whole
or in part, if (i) there is a change in federal tax law, (ii) the Bank fails to
meet certain definitional tests and other conditions in the federal tax law,
(iii) certain distributions are made with respect to the stock of the Bank or
(iv) the bad debt reserves are used for any purpose other than absorbing bad
debt losses.
F. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
------------------------------
At September 30, 1996, the Corporation had issued commitments, excluding
undisbursed portions of loans in process, totaling approximately $208,926,000 to
fund and purchase loans as follows: $97,366,000 of single-family adjustable-
rate mortgage loans, $81,850,000 of single-family fixed-rate mortgage loans,
$18,822,000 of consumer loan lines of credit and $10,888,000 of commercial real
estate loans. These outstanding loan commitments to extend credit in order to
originate loans or fund consumer loan lines of credit do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements since many of the commitments may expire
without being drawn. Loans sold subject to recourse provisions totaled
approximately $37,293,000, which represents the total potential credit risk
associated with these particular loans. Such credit risk would, however, be
offset by the value of the single-family residential properties which
collateralize these loans.
The Corporation is subject to a number of lawsuits and claims for various
amounts which arise out of the normal course of its business. In the opinion of
management, the disposition of claims currently pending will not have a material
adverse effect on the Corporation's financial position or results of operations.
On September 13, 1994, the Bank commenced litigation against the United States
in the United States Court of Federal Claims seeking to recover monetary relief
for the government's refusal to honor certain contracts between the Bank and the
Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation. The suit alleges that such
governmental action constitutes breach of contract and an unlawful taking of
property by the United States without just compensation or due process in
violation of the Constitution of the United States.
The litigation status and process of the multiple legal actions, such as that
instituted by the Bank with respect to supervisory goodwill and regulatory
capital credits, make the value of the claims asserted by the Bank uncertain as
to ultimate outcome, and contingent on a number of factors and future events
which are beyond the control of the Bank, both as to substance, timing and the
dollar amount of damages which may be awarded to the Bank if it finally prevails
in this litigation.
G. REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS:
-------------------------------
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by
the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can
initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by
regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the
Corporation's financial position and results of operations. The regulations
require the Bank to meet specific capital adequacy guidelines that involve
quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-
balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The
Bank's capital classification is 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 as set forth in the
following table of tangible, core and total risk-based capital. Prompt
Corrective Action provisions contained in the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA) require specific supervisory
actions as capital levels decrease. To be considered well-capitalized under the
regulatory framework for Prompt Corrective Action provisions under FDICIA, the
Bank must maintain minimum Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based and total risk-
based capital ratios as set forth in the following table. At September 30, 1996,
and June 30, 1996, the Bank exceeded the minimum requirements for the well-
capitalized category.

As of September 30, 1996, the most recent notification from the OTS categorized
the Bank as "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for Prompt
Corrective Action provisions under FDICIA. There are no conditions or events

H. SUBSEQUENT EVENT - ACQUISITION OF HERITAGE FINANCIAL, LTD.:
-----------------------------------------------------------
On October 1, 1996, the Corporation consummated its acquisition of Heritage
Financial, Ltd. (Heritage), parent company of Hawkeye Federal Savings Bank
(Hawkeye Federal) located in Iowa. Under the terms of the Reorganization and
Merger Agreement (the Merger Agreement), the Corporation acquired all of the
180,762 outstanding shares of Heritage's common stock. Each share of Heritage's
common stock was exchanged for $18.73 in cash ($3,386,000) and 2.4985 shares of
the Corporation's common stock (451,633 shares, not adjusted for three-for-two
stock split). Based on the Corporation's closing stock price of $43.00 (not
adjusted for the three-for-two stock split) at October 1, 1996, the total
consideration for this acquisition, excluding cash to be paid for fractional
shares, approximates $22,806,000.
At October 1, 1996, before purchase accounting adjustments, Heritage had assets
of approximately $182,938,000, deposits of approximately $157,911,000 and
stockholders' equity of approximately $10,308,000. Heritage operated six
branches located in Iowa. The Heritage acquisition will be accounted for as a
purchase, with the fair value of the assets and liabilities being determined
including an independent core value study, branch appraisals and a valuation of
the loan servicing portfolio, with completion expected during calendar year
1997. In addition, costs and expenses associated with this acquisition are
estimated to approximate $1,000,000. Core value of deposits resulting from this
transaction will be amortized on an accelerated basis over a period not to
exceed 10 years and goodwill amortized on a straight-line basis over a period
not to exceed 20 years.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
------------------------------------------------
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------------------------------
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
- -------------------------------
The Corporation's principal asset is its investment in the capital stock of the
Bank, and because it does not generate any significant revenues independent of
the Bank, the Corporation's liquidity is dependent on the extent to which it
receives dividends from the Bank. The Bank's ability to pay dividends to the
Corporation is dependent on its ability to generate earnings and is subject to a
number of regulatory restrictions and tax considerations. Under capital
distribution regulations of the OTS, a savings institution that, immediately
prior to, and on a pro forma basis after giving effect to, a proposed dividend,
has total capital that is at least equal to the amount of its fully phased-in
capital requirements (a "Tier 1 Association") is permitted to pay dividends
during a calendar year in an amount equal to the greater of (i) 75.0% of its net
income for the recent four quarters, or (ii) 100.0% of its net income to date
during the calendar year plus an amount that would reduce by one-half the amount
by which its ratio of total capital to assets exceeded its fully phased-in risk-
based capital ratio requirement at the beginning of the calendar year. At
September 30, 1996, the Bank qualified as a Tier 1 Association, and would be
permitted to pay an aggregate amount approximating $73.5 million in dividends
under these regulations. Should the Bank's regulatory capital fall below
certain levels, applicable law would require prior approval by the OTS of such
proposed dividends and, in some cases, would prohibit the payment of dividends.
On August 21, 1996, the Corporation repurchased 1,250,100 shares (not adjusted
for three-for-two stock split) of its common stock. Total cash consideration for
this transaction, including certain expenses and costs associated with the
seller's ownership of such stock, approximated $51.2 million. The sources of
cash to consummate this stock repurchase consisted of (i) a short-term variable-
rate loan totaling $28.0 million due January 31, 1997, (ii) a dividend from the
Bank totaling $18.0 million and (iii) cash totaling $5.2 million paid directly
by the parent company. Transaction costs incurred by the Corporation for this
repurchase totaled approximately $329,000 as of September 30, 1996. Concurrent
with the repurchase, two directors of the Corporation, who also serve as
executive officers of CAI Corporation, resigned from the Corporation's Board of
Directors. In addition, CAI Corporation and each of its shareholders agreed to a
standstill agreement for a period of 60 months beginning August 21, 1996. CAI
Corporation and the Corporation have each agreed to waive and release all claims
against the other and the Corporation has agreed to indemnify CAI Corporation
and its directors, officers and affiliates against certain derivative claims.
At September 30, 1996, the cash of Commercial Federal Corporation (the parent
company) totaled $5.4 million of which $3.5 million is required to be retained
under the terms of the Indenture governing the $40.25 million of subordinated
notes due December 1999. Due to the parent company's limited independent
operations, management believes that the cash balance at September 30, 1996, is
currently sufficient to meet operational needs. However, the parent company's
ability to make future interest and principal payments on the subordinated and
senior notes, and on the $28.0 million short-term variable-rate note borrowed to
help finance the parent company's purchase of its 1,250,100 shares (not
adjusted for three-for-two stock split) of common stock on August 21, 1996, is
dependent upon its receipt of dividends from the Bank. Accordingly, on September
11, 1996, a dividend totaling $3.122 million was declared by the Bank to be paid
to the parent company. This dividend from the Bank was paid in October 1996 to
cover (i) interest payments on the parent company's senior notes and (ii) common
stock cash dividends paid by the parent company. The Bank will continue to pay
dividends to the parent company, pursuant to regulatory restrictions, to cover
the cash dividends on common stock that the parent company intends to pay on a
quarterly basis and on future interest payments on the parent company's
subordinated and senior notes. No dividends were paid by the Bank to the parent
company during the three months ended September 30, 1995. The parent company
also receives cash from the exercise of stock options and the sale of stock
under its employee benefit plans.
The Corporation's subordinated and senior notes are now redeemable. Accordingly,
management is considering the refinancing of its outstanding 10.25% subordinated
debt totaling $40.25 million and 10.0% senior notes totaling $6.9 million given
the current interest rate environment in relation to the interest rates such
notes now bear.
The Corporation's primary sources of funds are (i) deposits, (ii) principal
repayments on loans, mortgage-backed and investment securities, (iii) advances
from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Topeka, (iv) securities sold under
agreements to repurchase, and (v) cash generated from operations. As reflected
in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, net cash flows provided by
operating activities totaled $23.3 million and $29.0 million, respectively, for
the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. Amounts fluctuate from
period to period primarily as a result of mortgage banking activity relating to
the purchase and origination of loans for resale and the subsequent sale of such
loans.
Net cash flows used by investing activities for the three months ended September
30, 1996 and 1995, totaled $53.3 million and $16.0 million, respectively.
Amounts fluctuate from period to period primarily as a result of (i) principal
repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities and (ii) the purchase and
origination of loans and mortgage-backed securities. The acquisition of
Heritage effective October 1, 1996, will result in cash paid totaling
approximately $3.4 million for Heritage's common stock as well as the exchange
of 451,633 shares (not adjusted for three-for-two stock split) of the
Corporation's common stock. This cash payment was paid from the Bank to the
parent company as a cash dividend in October 1996.

<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (Continued):
- --------------------------------------------
Net cash flows provided by financing activities totaled $35.8 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1996, compared to net cash flows used by
financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 1995, totaling
$9.8 million. Advances from the FHLB have been the primary sources to balance
the Corporation's funding needs during each of the periods presented. In
addition, during the three months ended September 30, 1996, the Corporation
utilized securities sold under agreements to repurchase primarily for liquidity
and asset liability management purposes. Also, during the three months ended
September 30, 1996, the Corporation borrowed $28.0 million to partially finance
the repurchase of 1,250,100 shares (not adjusted for three-for-two stock split)
of the Corporation's common stock. The $28.0 million note is due January 31,
1997, bearing a variable prime rate of interest adjusted monthly and secured by
the common stock of the Bank. Management of the Corporation is in the process of
negotiating the terms of this note to extend its maturity date to at least five
years.
Legislation signed into law on September 30, 1996, to recapitalize the SAIF fund
required SAIF-insured institutions to pay a one-time special assessment of 65.7
basis points of SAIF-insured deposits held as of March 31, 1995. This
nonrecurring special assessment resulted as of September 30, 1996, in a one-time
after tax-charge to the Corporation of approximately $17.3 million ($27.1
million pre-tax). Such a special assessment will substantially eliminate the
deposit insurance premium disparity between BIF-insured and SAIF-insured
institutions and is anticipated to fully recapitalize the SAIF. Such results
associated with this special assessment will have the effect of significantly
reducing the Corporation's deposit insurance premiums to the SAIF, thereby
increasing net income in future periods. The FDIC has proposed a new assessment
schedule for SAIF deposit insurance pursuant to which the assessment rate for
well-capitalized institutions with the highest supervisory ratings would be
reduced to zero and institutions in the lowest risk assessment classification
will be assessed at the rate of 0.27% of insured deposits. Until December 31,
1999, however, SAIF-insured institutions will be required to pay assessments to
the FDIC at the rate of 6.4 basis points to help fund interest payments on
certain bonds issued by the Financing Corporation (FICO), an agency of the
federal government established to finance takeovers of insolvent thrifts. During
this period, BIF members will be assessed for FICO obligations at the rate of
1.3 basis points. After December 31, 1999, both BIF and SAIF members will be
assessed at the same rate for FICO payments. Based on the Corporation's level of
deposits as of September 30, 1996, such a reduction in rates for SAIF insurance
premiums will result in an annual pre-tax increase to operating earnings
approximating $7.0 million.
The Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996 provides that the BIF and the SAIF will
be merged into a single deposit insurance fund effective December 31, 1999 but
only if there are no insured savings associations on that date. The legislation
directs the Department of Treasury to make recommendations to Congress by March
31, 1997, for the establishment of a single charter for banks and thrifts.
Management of the Corporation cannot predict accurately at this time what effect
this legislation will have on the Corporation.
The Corporation has considered and will continue to consider possible mergers
with and acquisitions of other selected financial institutions. Accordingly, on
October 1, 1996, the Corporation consummated its acquisition of Heritage
Financial, Ltd., and during fiscal year 1996, the Corporation consummated the
acquisitions of Railroad Financial Corporation and Conservative Savings
Corporation. Such acquisitions present the Corporation with the opportunity to
further expand its retail network in its existing markets, and to increase its
earnings potential by increasing its mortgage and consumer loan volumes funded
by deposits which generally bear lower rates of interest than alternative
sources of funds. The Corporation will continue to grow its five-state
franchise through an ongoing program of selective acquisitions of other
financial institutions. Acquisition candidates will be selected based on the
extent to which the candidate can enhance the Corporation's retail presence in
new or existing markets and complement the Corporation's present retail network.
At September 30, 1996, the Corporation had issued commitments, excluding
undisbursed portions of loans in process, totaling approximately $208.9 million
to fund and purchase loans as follows: $97.4 million of single-family
adjustable-rate mortgage loans, $81.8 million of single-family fixed-rate
mortgage loans, $18.8 million of consumer loan lines of credit and $10.9 million
of commercial real estate loans. These outstanding loan commitments to extend
credit in order to originate loans or fund consumer loan lines of credit do not
necessarily represent future cash requirements since many of the commitments may
expire without being drawn. The Corporation expects to fund these commitments,
as necessary, from the sources of funds previously described.
The maintenance of an appropriate level of liquid resources to meet not only
regulatory requirements but also to provide funding necessary to meet the
Corporation's current business activities and obligations is an integral element
in the management of the Corporation's assets. The Corporation is required by
federal regulation to maintain a minimum average daily balance of cash and
certain qualifying liquid investments equal to 5.0% of the aggregate of the
prior month's daily average savings deposits and short-term borrowings. The
Corporation's liquidity ratio was 6.49% at September 30, 1996. Liquidity levels
will vary depending upon savings flows, future loan fundings, cash operating
needs, collateral requirements and general prevailing economic conditions. The
Corporation does not foresee any difficulty in meeting its liquidity
requirements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
- ---------------------
The net loss for the three months ended September 30, 1996, was $4.1 million, or
$.27 loss per share (not adjusted for three-for-two stock split), compared to
net income of $11.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995, or
$.77 per share (not adjusted for three-for-two stock split). The decrease in net
income for the three months ended September 30, 1996, compared to the three
months ended September 30, 1995, is primarily due to the following: the $27.1
million nonrecurring Federal deposit insurance special assessment, an increase
of $1.3 million in general and administrative expenses and an increase of
$185,000 in amortization expense of intangible assets. These decreases to net
income resulting in the first quarter loss were only partially offset by a
reduction in the provision for income taxes totaling $9.0 million, an increase
of $2.1 million in net interest income after provision for loan losses, an
increase of $1.2 million in retail fees and charges, an increase of $860,000 in
loan servicing fees and a net increase of $115,000 in the total of real estate
operations, net gain on sales of loans and other operating income.

<PAGE>
Net Interest Income:
- --------------------
Net interest income was $40.3 million for the three months ended September 30,
1996, compared to $38.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995,
resulting in an increase of $2.2 million, or 5.8%. The interest rate spread was
2.37% at September 30, 1996, compared to 2.22% at September 30, 1995, an
increase of 15 basis points. During the three months ended September 30, 1996
and 1995, interest rate spreads were 2.40% and 2.21%, respectively, an increase
of 19 basis points. The sale of approximately $230.8 million of securities
available-for-sale during the last six months of fiscal year 1996 and the
utilization of such proceeds to repay maturing FHLB advances, the Corporation's
favorable asset liability mix (primarily increased levels of adjustable-rate
mortgage loans, consumer loans and multi-family commercial real estate loans),
the general reduction in interest rates on interest-bearing liabilities (5.35%
compared to 5.53%) and the acquisition of Conservative effective February 1,
1996, has improved the interest rate spreads and yields. The future trend in
interest rate spreads and net interest income will be dependent upon such
factors as the composition and size of the Corporation's interest-earning assets
and interest-bearing liabilities, the interest rate risk exposure of the
Corporation, and the maturity and repricing activity of interest-sensitive
assets and liabilities, as influenced by changes in and levels of both short-
term and long-term market interest rates.
The following table presents certain information concerning yields earned on
interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities during
and at the end of each of the periods presented.

</TABLE>
During the three months ended September 30, 1996, the Corporation experienced
lower costs on interest-bearing liabilities primarily due to decreases in the
interest rates offered on certain types of deposit products and decreases in
interest rates on FHLB advances and securities sold under agreements to
repurchase. The net earnings balance (the difference between average interest-
bearing liabilities and average interest-earning assets) decreased by $49.7
million for the three months ended September 30, 1996, compared to the three
months ended September 30, 1995, primarily due to cash outlays totaling (i)
approximately $51.7 million for federal and state tax liabilities principally
paid in June 1996 associated with taxable income recognized from the final
disposition of a subsidiary's interest in a nuclear generating facility in
February 1996, and (ii) approximately $51.2 million for the Corporation's
repurchase of its common stock during this current quarter. The effect of these
decreases was partially offset by improvements from the acquisition of
Conservative (which was partially paid for through the issuance of common
stock).

increasing interest rates and the decline in interest rate spreads previously
discussed.

Provision for Loan Losses and Real Estate Operations:
- -----------------------------------------------------
The Corporation recorded loan loss provisions totaling $1.7 million and $1.6
million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 1996, compared
to 1995. The loan loss provisions remained relatively stable over the
respective periods even though the net loan portfolio increased approximately
$277.0 million at September 30, 1996, compared to September 30, 1995, indicating
management's assessment of the credit quality of the loan portfolio and the
relatively low level of nonperforming loans over the respective periods of time.
The allowance for loan losses is based upon management's continuous evaluation
of the collectibility of outstanding loans, which takes into consideration such
factors as changes in the composition of the loan portfolio and current economic
conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to pay, regular examinations
by the Corporation's credit review group of specific problem loans and of the
overall portfolio quality and real estate market conditions in the Corporation's
lending areas.
The Corporation recorded net income from real estate operations of $216,000 and
$365,000, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995.
Real estate operations reflect provisions for real estate losses, net real
estate operating activity, and gains and losses on dispositions of real estate.
The decline of $149,000 in real estate operations for the three months ended
September 30, 1996, compared to the three months ended September 30, 1995, is
primarily due to increased operating expenses incurred in the current fiscal
year quarter and to excess reserves recaptured into income upon settlement of a
lawsuit during the three months ended September 30, 1995.

Nonperforming assets are monitored closely on a regular basis by the
Corporation's internal credit review and asset workout groups. Nonperforming
assets increased $4.5 million at September 30, 1996, compared to June 30, 1996,
resulting from net increases of $3.9 million in real estate and $1.6 million in
nonperforming loans, partially offset by net decreases of $985,000 in troubled
debt restructurings. Nonperforming assets as of the dates indicated are

allowance for losses established primarily to cover risks associated with
borrowers' delinquencies and defaults on loans held for sale.
(2) Represents the allowance for loan losses for single-family residential
whole loans purchased between January 1991 and June 30, 1992 (bulk
purchased loans), which had been allocated from the amount of net discounts
associated with the Corporation's purchase of these loans to provide for
the credit risk associated with such bulk purchased loans. These bulk
purchased loans had principal balances of $560.1 million and $574.4
million, respectively, at September 30, 1996 and June 30, 1996. These
allowances are available only to absorb losses associated with respective
bulk purchased loans, and are not available to absorb losses from other
loans.

Provision for Loan Losses and Real Estate Operations (Continued):
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
The ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans was .81% at September 30, 1996,
based on loan balances of $4.903 billion, compared to .77% at June 30, 1996,
based on loan balances approximating $4.862 billion. Management believes that
these ratios reflect the quality of the Bank's loan portfolio, which consists
primarily of loans secured by single-family residential properties. The ratio
of nonperforming assets to total assets was 1.07% at September 30, 1996,
compared to 1.01% at June 30, 1996, which management believes are favorable
compared to industry standards, is an indicator of the stabilization of
nonperforming assets. Ratios for both nonperforming loans to total loans and
nonperforming assets to total assets increased compared to June 30, 1996
primarily due to a net increase in nonperforming loans totaling $1.6 million
offset slightly by net increases of $40.4 million in total loans and $60.1
million in total assets compared to June 30, 1996. The percentages for
allowance for loan losses to total loans and to total nonperforming assets
remained relatively unchanged comparing September 30, 1996 to June 30, 1996.
Nonperforming loans at September 30, 1996, increased by $1.6 million compared to
June 30, 1996, primarily due to net increases in delinquent commercial real
estate loans totaling $989,000, delinquent consumer loans totaling $592,000 and
delinquent residential construction loans totaling $500,000. These increases
were partially offset by a decrease in delinquent residential real estate
loans totaling $455,000. The net increase in real estate of $3.9 million at
September 30, 1996 compared to June 30, 1996, is primarily due to the addition
of residential and commercial real estate totaling $3.1 million and $1.6
million, respectively, partially offset by the sale of certain residential real
estate properties totaling $831,000. The net decrease of $985,000 in troubled
debt restructuring at September 30, 1996, compared to June 30, 1996, is
primarily attributable to the payoff of two loans.
Loan Servicing Fees:
- --------------------
Fees from loans serviced for other institutions totaled $7.3 million and $6.5
million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 1996, and 1995.
The increase comparing the respective periods is primarily due to increases in
the size of the Corporation's loan servicing portfolio. At September 30, 1996
and 1995, the Corporation's mortgage servicing portfolio approximated $5.875
billion and $5.147 billion, respectively.
The value of the Corporation's loan servicing portfolio increases as mortgage
interest rates rise and loan prepayments decrease. It is expected that income
generated from the Corporation's loan servicing portfolio will increase in such
an environment. However, this positive effect on the Corporation's income is
offset, in part, by a decrease in additional servicing fee income attributable
to new loan originations, which historically decrease in periods of higher, or
increasing, mortgage interest rates, and by an increase in expenses from loan
production costs since a portion of such costs cannot be deferred due to lower
loan originations. Conversely, the value of the Corporation's loan servicing
portfolio will decrease as mortgage interest rates decline.
Retail Fees and Charges:
- ------------------------
Retail fees and charges totaled $3.9 million and $2.7 million, respectively, for
the three months ended September 30, 1996 compared to 1995. The net increase of
$1.2 million in retail fees and charges primarily result from increases in
certain checking account fees and related ancillary fees for overdraft and
insufficient funds charges and net VISA check card fees from the Corporation's
expanding retail customer deposit base over the same respective period.
Gain (Loss) on Sales of Loans:
- ------------------------------
The Corporation sold loans to third parties through its mortgage banking
operations resulting in net pre-tax gains of $105,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1996, compared to net pre-tax losses of $148,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1995. Mortgage loans are generally sold in the
secondary market with loan servicing retained and without recourse to the
Corporation. The net gain recorded in the current fiscal year is attributable
to the relatively stable interest rate environment. The net losses recorded in
the prior fiscal year period are primarily from mortgage banking operations of
the former Railroad Savings Bank which have been combined under the pooling of
interests accounting treatment. Such losses were incurred primarily from the
sales of loans which were originated pursuant to unhedged commitments.

<PAGE>
Other Operating Income:
- -----------------------
Other operating income totaled $2.0 million for both three month periods ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995. The major components of other operating income are
from brokerage, insurance and credit life and disability commissions. Insurance
and brokerage commission income increased $212,000 and $155,000, respectively,
for the three months ended September 30, 1996, compared to 1995. These
increases were offset by a net gain on the sale of loan servicing rights which
totaled $452,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995, of which all
such sales activity was from the former Railroad Savings Bank which have been
combined under the pooling of interests accounting treatment.
General and Administrative Expenses:
- ------------------------------------
General and administrative expenses, excluding the $27.1 million federal
deposit insurance special assessment, totaled $29.3 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1996 compared to $28.0 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1995. The increase of $1.3 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1996, compared to the three months ended September 30, 1995, was
primarily due to net increases in other operating expenses of $1.2 million,
occupancy and equipment of $549,000, regulatory insurance and assessments of
$232,000 and advertising of $226,000, partially offset by a net decrease in
compensation and benefits.
The net increase in general and administrative expenses, excluding the deposit
insurance special assessment, for the three months ended September 30, 1996,
compared to the respective prior year quarter is primarily attributable to
nonrecurring expenses associated with the repurchase of 1,250,100 shares (not
adjusted for three-for-two stock split) of the Corporation's common stock ($2.3
million) and to net increases in general operating expenses from acquisitions
growth. Nonrecurring expenses recorded during the current fiscal year quarter
totaled $2.3 million and related to the repurchase of 1,250,100 shares (not
adjusted for three-for-two stock split) of the Corporation's common stock.
Partially offsetting the effect of the expenses totaling $2.3 million were
nonrecurring expenses related to the Railroad merger and the 1995 proxy contest
totaling $1.4 million recorded during three months ended September 30, 1995. Net
increases in general and administrative expenses directly resulting from
acquisitions totaled $543,000 comparing the three months ended September 30,
1996, to the respective prior year period. Such increases in general and
administrative expenses result from increased personnel wages and benefits,
costs of operating additional branches and higher regulatory insurance costs
from the deposits acquired. Other expenses were also incurred on an indirect
basis attributable to these acquisitions.
Amortization of Goodwill and Core Value of Deposits:
- ---------------------------------------------------
Amortization of goodwill and core value of deposits totaled $2.4 million and
$2.2 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 1996
compared to 1995. The net increase of $185,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1996, is primarily due to the amortization of core value of
deposits and goodwill resulting from the Conservative acquisition consummated
February 1, 1996.
Income Tax Provision (Benefit):
- -------------------------------
For the three months ended September 30, 1996, the income tax benefit totaled
$2.5 million compared to an income tax provision of $6.5 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1995. The effective income tax rates for the three
months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, were 38.0% and 36.6%, respectively.
The effective tax rates for both periods vary from the federal statutory rate
primarily due to the nondeductibility of amortization of goodwill and core value
of deposits, and certain Railroad merger and acquisition costs, in relation to
the level of taxable income or loss for the respective periods.
