                          ----------------------------



The Plan Administrators of the
 Derby Savings Bank Thrift Plan
Waterbury, Connecticut


We have audited the  accompanying  statements  of net assets  available for plan
benefits of the Derby Savings Bank Thrift Plan as of December 31, 1996 and 1995,
and the related  statements of changes in net assets available for plan benefits
for each of the years in the three-year  period ended  December 31, 1996.  These
financial  statements  are the  responsibility  of the  Plan's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting  principles used and significant  estimates made by the
Plan's  management,  as well  as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement
presentation.  We believe  that our audits  provide a  reasonable  basis for our
opinion.

The Plan Administrators of the
 Derby Savings Bank Thrift Plan

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material  respects,  the net assets available for plan benefits of the Derby
Savings  Bank Thrift Plan as of December  31, 1996 and 1995,  and the changes in
its net  assets  available  for  plan  benefits  for  each of the  years  in the
three-year period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 7 to the accompanying  financial  statements,  the Plan and
its net  assets  were  merged on April 1, 1997 into the  Webster  Bank  Employee
Investment Plan, the 401(k) plan of Webster Bank.

Our audits  were  conducted  for the  purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental  schedules are presented
for purposes of complying with the  Department of Labor's Rules and  Regulations
for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee  Retirement  Income Security Act
of 1974 and are not a  required  part of the  basic  financial  statements.  The
supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
the audit of the basic  financial  statements  and, in our  opinion,  are fairly
stated, in all material respects,  in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995
                           --------------------------


NOTE 1 - PLAN DESCRIPTION
         ----------------

         The following  brief  description of the Derby Savings Bank Thrift Plan
         (Plan) is provided for general information purposes only.  Participants
         should refer to the Plan agreement for more complete  information.  The
         Plan, as amended, became effective on January 1, 1985.

         The Plan is a defined  contribution  plan  covering  substantially  all
         full-time  employees of Derby Savings Bank and its subsidiaries  (Bank)
         who have  one-half  year of eligible  service  and are age  eighteen or
         older. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
         Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

         Each year  participants  may  contribute  up to 10  percent  of pre-tax
         annual  compensation,   as  defined  in  the  Plan.  The  Bank  matches
         contributions  in an  amount  equal to 50  percent  of a  participant's
         contributions,  subject to certain  limitations as defined in the Plan.
         Additionally,  the  Bank can make  discretionary  contributions  at the
         option of the Bank's  Board of  Directors.  Effective  August 31,  1993
         (Note 5) all Bank contributions,  both matching and discretionary,  are
         to be invested in DS Bancor, Inc. (DS Bancor) common stock. The Bank is
         a wholly owned subsidiary of DS Bancor.

         Participants'  accounts are  credited  with their  contributions,  plus
         allocated Bank contributions and Plan earnings.  Bank contributions are
         allocated  based  on  the  ratio  that  each  qualifying  participant's
         compensation  for the plan year bears to the total  compensation of all
         qualifying  participants.  Plan  earnings  are  allocated  based  on  a
         participant's   account  balance  in  various   investments  and  their
         respective earnings.  All administrative  expenses of the Plan are paid
         and borne by the Bank.

         Participants are immediately 100 percent vested in their  contributions
         and in any Bank matching and discretionary  contributions,  plus actual
         earnings thereon.

NOTE 1 - PLAN DESCRIPTION (continued)
         ----------------------------

         Participants may direct their contributions in any of the following six
         investment options:

          1.   Fleet  Stable  Asset  Fund - Funds  are  invested  in  guaranteed
               investment  contracts  issued  by  highly  rated  life  insurance
               companies.

          2.   Galaxy  Intermediate  Government  Income  Bond  Fund - Funds  are
               invested in investment  grade debt  obligations  rated within the
               three  highest  categories  of  Standard & Poor's or Moody's  and
               issued or  guaranteed  by the U.S.  Government,  and money market
               instruments.

          3.   Galaxy  Equity  Value  Fund - Funds  are  invested  in a  diverse
               portfolio of stocks.

          4.   Galaxy  International  Equity Fund - Funds are invested in equity
               securities of foreign issuers.

          5.   INVESCO Industrial Income Fund - Funds are invested in common and
               preferred  stocks and  convertible  bonds  which  will  provide a
               relatively high yield and, secondarily, capital appreciation.

          6.   DS Bancor Common Stock - Funds are invested in common stock of DS
               Bancor.

         Participants may change their investment  options daily effective April
         1, 1995.  Prior to the Plan's change to daily  valuation,  participants
         could change their investment options on a quarterly basis.

NOTE 1 - PLAN DESCRIPTION (continued)
         ----------------------------

         Participants  may borrow against their account  balances.  Loan amounts
         can be a minimum  of $1,000 to a maximum of the lesser of $50,000 or 50
         percent of a  participant's  account  balance.  Loan  terms  range to a
         maximum of 10 years if loan funds are used to purchase a  participant's
         primary residence. Loan funds used for any other purpose have a maximum
         term of 5 years.  The  loans are  secured  by a  participant's  account
         balance  and bear  interest  at a fixed rate equal to 100 basis  points
         above  Fleet  Bank's  Prime  rate at the time  the loan is  originated.
         Principal  and interest are repaid  ratably  through  biweekly  payroll
         deductions.

         Upon  termination of service due to death,  disability or retirement at
         age 65,  participants  may elect to receive a lump-sum  amount equal to
         the  value  of  their  account  balance  or  installment   payments  in
         accordance  with the Plan.  For  terminations  of service  due to other
         reasons, participants may receive the value of their account balance as
         a lump-sum distribution.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
         ------------------------------------------

          (a)  The  accompanying  financial  statements  and schedules have been
               prepared in  conformity  with the  Department  of Labor Rules and
               Regulations  for  Reporting  and  Disclosure  under the  Employee
               Retirement  Income  Security Act of 1974  (ERISA).  The financial
               statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting.

          (b)  The Plan's  investments  at December 31, 1996 and 1995 are stated
               at fair  value  which is  based  on  quoted  market  prices.  Net
               appreciation  or  depreciation  on investments is recorded in the
               Statements of Changes in Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
         ------------------------------------------------------

          (c)  Discretionary  contributions  are recorded in the year and in the
               amount  authorized  by the Bank's  Board of  Directors.  Matching
               contributions and contributions from participants are recorded in
               the year in which the participant's contributions are withheld.

          (d)  Benefits are recorded when paid.

          (e)  Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Fleet short-term  investment fund
               is a money market fund whose units are cash  equivalents  but are
               not insured.

          (f)  The  average  cost  method  is used for  determining  the cost of
               investments sold.

          (g)  Investment and  administrative  expenses are borne by the sponsor
               and  therefore   are  not  reflected  in  the  Plan's   financial
               statements.


NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS
         -----------

         In  October  1993,  the  Plan  entered  into an  agreement  with  Fleet
         Investment  Services  (Fleet)  to  act  as  investment  manager  and as
         directed  trustee.  Pursuant to the  agreement,  the assets of the Plan
         were transferred to Fleet and invested in various investment options as
         directed by participants (Notes 1 and 5).

         Prior to the agreement, Plan investments were maintained by Connecticut
         General  Life  Insurance  Company  (CGLIC) and invested in a guaranteed
         investment contract with CGLIC (Note 5).

         During the years  ended  December  31,  1996,  1995 and 1994,  the Plan
         purchased common stock of DS Bancor (Note 1) aggregating  6,761,  5,636
         and  9,812  shares  at a  cost  of  $226,780,  $143,012  and  $254,552,
         respectively,  and sold  4,350,  1,206 and 1,097  shares  for  proceeds
         aggregating $141,754,  $29,961 and $31,377,  respectively.  The cost of
         the stock sold was $109,105, $29,775 and $28,331,  respectively.  1,115
         shares were acquired through two 5% stock dividends and 392 shares were
         distributed as a part of employee terminations during 1995.

NOTE 4 - TAX STATUS
         ----------

         The  Plan  has  received  a  favorable  determination  letter  from the
         Internal  Revenue  Service,  which qualifies the Plan for favorable tax
         treatment under Sections 401(k) and 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code
         and therefore,  is exempt from federal income taxes under provisions of
         Section 501(a).


NOTE 5 - PLAN AMENDMENTS
         ---------------

         Effective  August 31, 1993,  the Bank's  Board of Directors  approved a
         plan amendment  that  authorized the transfer of plan assets from CGLIC
         to  Fleet  and  appointed  Fleet as  investment  manager  and  directed
         trustee. The amendment authorized  participants to invest their account
         balances in various  investment  options,  including  DS Bancor  common
         stock,   and  also  provided  that,   henceforth,   Bank  matching  and
         discretionary  contributions  would be invested  solely in shares of DS
         Bancor common stock.

         The Plan  revised its  Adoption  Agreement in March 1995 to comply with
         IRS regulations. The Basic Plan Document prototype was changed from the
         Fleet  Bank  prototype  to the  Universal  Pensions  prototype.  An IRS
         determination  letter  dated  April 4,  1995 was  received  to  confirm
         approval of the change.

NOTE 6 - DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
         -----------------------------------------------------

         The following  methods and  assumptions  were used to estimate the fair
         value  of  each  class  of  financial   instruments  for  which  it  is
         practicable to estimate that value:

         Cash and Cash Equivalents
         -------------------------

         The carrying amount of the short-term  investment fund is equivalent to
         its fair value.

         Investments
         -----------

         The fair values of investments are based on quoted market prices.

         Participants' Loans Receivable
         ------------------------------

         The  carrying  amount  of  the   participant   loans  is  estimated  to
         approximate  their  fair value as the loans  provide  for offset of the
         loan  principal   balance  against  the  fair  value  of  participant's
         investment if a participant is terminated. The loan terms include fixed
         interest  equivalent  to  the  prime  rate  plus  1%  at  the  time  of
         origination and maximum maturities of 5 to 10 years.

         Accrued Income Receivable
         -------------------------

         The carrying amount approximates fair value.

         Contributions Receivable
         ------------------------

         The carrying amount approximates fair value.

                         ==============================

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995
                           --------------------------



NOTE 7 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
         -----------------

         On January 31, 1997,  DS Bancor,  Inc. (DS Bancor),  parent  company of
         Derby  Savings  Bank,  was merged into  Webster  Financial  Corporation
         (Webster),  and Derby  Savings  Bank was merged into  Webster  Bank,  a
         subsidiary  of Webster,  in  accordance  with an Agreement  and Plan of
         Merger which was approved on January 30, 1997 by  stockholders  of both
         DS Bancor and Webster.

         As part of the merger,  Webster Bank has merged the Plan and its assets
         into its own 401(k) plan effective April 1, 1997.

         The  accompanying  financial  statements  reflect the Plan's net assets
         without considering the effects on its net assets, if any, of the above
         noted  mergers.  The corporate  merger and plan merger could affect the
         realization  of assets and  liquidation  of liabilities as reflected at
         December 31, 1996, and therefore, the accompanying financial statements
         should be read  considering  the  corporate  and plan  mergers  and the
         effects they could have on the Plan's net assets.


NOTE 8 - RECLASSIFICATION
         ----------------

         Certain 1995  balances  have been  reclassified  to conform to the 1996
         presentation.
