an, 18.0% increase over 1996's total interest expense of $2,061,000.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
A provision of $20,000 was made to the allowance for loan losses during
the first nine months of 1997. The allowance for loan losses is deemed
adequate as calculated in accordance with Banking Circular #201 and with
respect to SFAS 114/118. Loans considered to be impaired according to SFAS
114/118 totalled $478,000 and $162,000 at September 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. The portion of the allowance for loan losses allocated to
impaired loans at September 30, 1997 and 1996 was $152,000 and $12,000,
respectively.
NON-INTEREST INCOME
Non-interest income was $1,140,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1997. This is an increase of 12.2% from 1996's non-interest income of
$1,016,000. Non-interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 was
$449,000, a 12.3% increase over the same period a year ago.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
Non-interest expense of $4,542,000 for the nine months ended September 30,

9.5% increase over the same period a year ago.
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes on operating earnings increased to $1,349,000 for the first
nine months of 1997 from $1,180,000 for the same period a year ago. The level
of income taxes has increased as a result of the Company's increased earnings.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION CONTINUED
DEPOSITS AND BORROWED FUNDS
Deposits as of September 30, 1997 increased by 4.5% or $6,909,000 from
September 30, 1996. Demand deposits decreased by 1.8% or $248,000, NOW
deposits increased by 3.7% or $1,013,000, savings deposits decreased by 0.8% or
$297,000, money market deposits decreased by 37.4% or $2,512,000 and
certificates of deposit increased by 12.6% or $8,953,000.
Deposits were supplemented by borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank
and repurchase agreements. Total borrowed funds increased by 38.0% or
$18,874,000 from the same period a year ago.
STOCKHOLDERS' INVESTMENT AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Stockholders' investment as of September 30, 1997 was $25,133,000 compared
to $21,620,000 for the same period in 1996. The reason for this increase was
the strong earnings performance in the year 1996 and the first nine months of
1997.
During 1996, the Company increased its dividend one cent each quarter to
end the year at a dividend rate of 20 cents per share. In addition, a special
cash dividend of 20 cents per share was declared in the fourth quarter of 1996.
Dividends were increased one cent in the first quarter of 1997 to 21 cents per
share, again in the second quarter to 22 cents per share, and once again in the
third quarter to 23 cents per share.
Leverage capital ratios for the Company were 9.78% and 9.50%,
respectively, at September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996. The Bank had a
tier one risk-based capital ratio of 15.62% and tier two risk-based capital
ratio of 16.80% at September 30, 1997, compared to 14.46% and 15.71%,
respectively, at September 30, 1996. These were comfortably above the
standards to be rated "well-capitalized" by the regulatory authorities.
LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT
As of September 30, 1997 the Bank had primary sources of liquidity of
$40,903,000, or 15.9% of its assets. It is Management's opinion that this is
adequate. In its Asset/Liability policy, the Bank has adopted guidelines for
liquidity.
We are not aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory
authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would have a material effect
on the Corporation's liquidity, capital resources or results of operations.
LOAN POLICIES
Real estate values:
A. Residential properties We loan up to 80% of the appraised value of
properties without mortgage insurance and up to 95% of the appraised value of
properties with mortgage insurance. No further appraisals are done as long as
the payment history remains satisfactory. If a loan becomes delinquent, a
review might be done of the loan.
Page 11
<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION CONTINUED
When a loan becomes 90 or more days past due, an in-depth review is made of
the loan and a determination made as to whether or not a reappraisal is
required.
B. Land only properties We do not have many of these but we do loan up to 65%
of the appraised value of the property. They are handled the same way as above
from booking date on.
C. Commercial properties We loan up to 75% of the appraised value and, once
the loan is closed, the decision to re-appraise a property is subjective and
depends on a variety of factors, such as: the payment status of the loan, the
risk rating of the loan, the amount of time that has passed since the last
appraisal, changes in the real estate market, availability of financing,
inventory of competing properties, and changes in condition of the property
i.e. zoning changes, environmental contamination, etc.
Note: A certified or licensed appraiser is used for all appraisals.
At September 30, 1997 and 1996, loans on a non-accrual status totaled
$537,000 and $430,000, respectively. In addition to loans on a non-accrual
status at September 30, 1997 and 1996, loans past due greater than 90 days
totaled $674,000 and $161,000 respectively. The Company continues to accrue
interest on these loans because it believes collection of the interest is
reasonably assured.
INVESTMENTS
As of September 30, 1997 stockholders' equity was increased by $58,000 due to a
net unrealized gain in the available-for-sale portfolio.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
No material off-balance sheet risk exists that requires a separate
liability presentation.
SALE OF LOANS
No recourse obligations have been incurred in connection with the sale of
loans.
RISK ELEMENTS
Any loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful,
substandard, or special mention that have not been disclosed under Item III of
Industry Guide 3 do not represent or result from trends or uncertainties which
Management reasonably expects will materially impact future operating results,
liquidity or capital resources.
There are no known potential problem loans which are not now disclosed
pursuant to Item III. C. 1. of Industry Guide 3. Item III. C. 2. is not
applicable.

<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION CONTINUED
REGULATORY MATTERS
Procedures for monitoring Bank Loan Administration:
A. Loan reviews are done on a regular basis.
B. An action plan is prepared quarterly on all criticized commercial loans
greater than $100,000.
C. Delinquent loans are reviewed weekly by the Bank's Collections Officer and
Senior Loan Officer.
D. A tickler system is utilized to insure timely receipt of current information
(such as financial statements, appraisals and/or credit memos to the credit
file).
Note: Most of the above applies only to commercial loans, but retail loans are
reviewed periodically, usually around a delinquency.
Procedures for monitoring Bank Other Real Estate Owned:
The O.R.E.O. portfolio is handled by the Collections Officer, with backup
by the Senior Loan Officer. Most properties are listed with real estate
brokers for sale. All properties are appraised periodically for market value,
and provision is made to the allowance for O.R.E.O. losses if the estimated
market value after selling costs is lower than the carrying value of the
property.
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
SFAS No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights" was adopted in 1996.
SFAS requires the recognition of rights to service mortgage loans for others as
separate assets, regardless of whether the rights were originated or purchased,
and subsequent, periodic evaluations of the capitalized rights for impairment.
The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the financial
statements.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation,"
and has elected the intrinsic value method. The financial statements are not
affected.
SFAS No. 125, as amended by SFAS No. 127, relates to the accounting for
transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of certain
liabilities and is effective for years beginning January 1, 1997. The adoption
of this statement did not have an effect on the financial statements.
SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share", and SFAS No. 129, "Disclosure of
Information about Capital Structure", were issued in February 1997 and are
effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. The
effect of adopting these statements has not been determined.
