                       AHMANSON TO ACQUIRE COAST SAVINGS

 -Forms Third Largest California Financial Institution; Immediately Accretive
                               to 1998 Earnings-

        -Coast Shareholders to Receive Ahmanson Stock and Certificates
                   Relating to Coast's Goodwill Litigation-

     IRWINDALE and LOS ANGELES, CA, October 6, 1997--H.F. Ahmanson & Company 
(NYSE:AHM), parent company of Home Savings of America, and Coast Savings 
Financial, Inc. (NYSE:CSA), parent company of Coast Federal Bank, today jointly 
announced the signing of a definitive agreement for Ahmanson to acquire Los 
Angeles-based Coast. The combined company would be California's third largest 
financial institution, with more than $39 billion in deposits.

     Under the terms of the agreement, Coast shareholders will receive a 
tax-free exchange of 0.8082 shares of Ahmanson common stock for each share of 
Coast common stock. In addition, Coast shareholders will receive tradable 
certificates representing the right to receive an amount equal to 100 percent of
any after tax proceeds (net of expenses) from Coast's pending "goodwill" 
litigation against the U.S. government.

     Excluding the value of the goodwill litigation certificates, the exchange 
ratio represents a price of $46.17 for each Coast share, based on Ahmanson's 
closing stock price on October 3, 1997, resulting in a purchase price of $901 
million. The Ahmanson
<PAGE>
 
stock to be issued represents a multiple of 1.9 times Coast's book value at June
30, 1997, and a deposit premium of approximately 7.1 percent.

     Ahmanson Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Charles R. Rinehart said, 
"This transaction is good for California since it creates an even stronger 
competitor headquartered in Southern California. For over one hundred years, 
Home Savings has been a major contributor to the growth of California. The 
addition of Coast enhances our already strong presence in key markets throughout
the state, as well as our ability to offer financial products to both 
individuals and small businesses. Coast's customers will benefit from a wider 
array of consumer banking products and the new availability of business banking 
products and services.

     "This transaction is also consistent with our desire to build shareholder 
value," he added. "It yields meaningful and immediate accretion to earnings 
while preserving our ability to continue buying back shares. In addition, Coast 
fits directly into our strategy of being a full-service consumer and small 
business bank."

     The transaction will be accounted for as a purchase.

     Following the merger, Ahmanson will have total assets of $56.6 billion. It 
will also have $39.2 billion in deposits, and serve more than two million 
households through 460 financial service centers in California, Florida and 
Texas. Home Savings' share of California's retail deposit market will increase 
to 9.1 percent from 7.5 percent.

     Coast Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Ray Martin said, "We are proud 
to have Coast join forces with Home Savings at this time. Their top-flight board
and management team have demonstrated a strong and savvy commitment to enhancing
shareholder value, and we believe this combination will accelerate their 
well-underway transformation into a regional banking powerhouse. We are also 
very pleased that the 
<PAGE>
 
transaction will preserve all the potential benefits of Coast's 'supervisory 
goodwill' lawsuit for our shareholders."

     Rinehart will serve as Chairman and CEO of the combined company. Martin
will join the Ahmanson Board of Directors.

     Coast's 90 retail branches, with deposits totaling $6.4 billion at June 
30, 1997, are located in both Northern and Southern California.  Coast has 28 
branches in Northern California in San Francisco, Monterey, Santa Cruz, Santa 
Clara, Contra Costa and Alameda counties. In Southern California, its 62 
branches are located in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino and 
Ventura counties.

     Coast currently has 1,500 employees compared to Ahmanson's 9,300 employees.
Job loss is expected to be minimal because of the high number of jobs currently
open at Home Savings stemming from its recent hiring restriction and the
company's normal attrition.

     The acquisition has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of
both companies. It is contingent upon regulatory approval and Coast shareholder 
approval, and is expected to close in the first quarter of 1998.

     H.F. Ahmanson & Company, with more than $47 billion in assets, is the
parent company of Home Savings of America, one of the nation's largest full-
service consumer and small business banks.
