THE COMPANY

GENERAL--Eagle is the holding company of Eagle Federal Savings Bank ("Eagle
Federal" or the "Bank"). Eagle was organized as the holding company of First
Federal Savings and Loan Association of Torrington, Connecticut ("Torrington")
upon its conversion to a stock company in 1987. In 1988, BFS Bancorp, Inc., the
holding company of Bristol Federal Savings Bank, Bristol, Connecticut
("Bristol"), merged into Eagle in a combination structured as a merger of
equals and accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. Bristol had converted to a
stock company in 1987. Torrington and Bristol have operated as savings
institutions since 1919 and 1924, respectively. In January 1993, Eagle merged
Bristol with Torrington under the new name Eagle Federal Savings Bank. Unless
otherwise stated, all references herein to Eagle or the Company include Eagle
Federal and other subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

Eagle, at June 30, 1994, had total assets of $1.1 billion, net loans
receivable of $775.1 million, deposits of $982.7 million and shareholders'
equity of $64.6 million. Through Eagle Federal, the Company provides consumer
banking services through 23 banking offices in Connecticut, serving the
Torrington, Bristol, Danbury and Hartford market regions. In the Torrington
market region, Eagle Federal ranks first, along with one other institution,
with a deposit market share of 23% at September 30, 1993. In the Bristol market
region, Eagle Federal ranks second, with a deposit market share of 24% at the
same date. As a community oriented savings bank, Eagle Federal focuses on the
financial needs of its customers in these local markets, seeking to develop
long-term deposit and lending relationships. In its lending activities, the
Bank stresses asset quality through its emphasis on 1-4 family residential
first mortgage lending in its local markets and the use of conservative loan
underwriting standards. Deposit accounts at the Bank are insured by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC").

Eagle's net income has increased each of the previous five fiscal years from
$3.5 million, or $1.17 per share, in fiscal 1989 to $6.2 million, or $1.97 per
share, in fiscal 1993. Eagle's net income for the nine months ended June 30,
1994 was $5.6 million, compared to $4.7 million for the same nine month period
in fiscal 1993.

Eagle intends to continue to concentrate on increasing its earnings,
maintaining high asset quality, meeting customer needs in its existing local
markets, and expanding through selected future acquisitions.

Eagle's principal executive office is located at 222 Main Street, Bristol,
Connecticut 06010 and its telephone number is (203) 589-4600.

RECENT ACQUISITIONS--In recent periods, Eagle has significantly expanded its
operations through three federally assisted acquisitions in which Eagle Federal
acquired certain assets and assumed deposit liabilities from the FDIC or the
Resolution Trust Corporation ("RTC"), as shown below. Substantially all of the
loans acquired in these acquisitions consisted of 1-4 family residential first
mortgage loans and home equity loans. In The Bank of Hartford, Inc. ("Bank of
Hartford") acquisition, Eagle Federal also acquired $72.7 million of investment
securities, substantially all of which were U.S. Treasury and government agency
obligations, and loan servicing rights on $80.5 million of loans with an
average loan servicing fee of 0.375%. In addition to these assisted
acquisitions, Eagle Federal in July 1993 purchased from another savings
institution a banking office in Brookfield, Connecticut with $8.2 million in
deposits, and relocated its previously acquired Brookfield office to that
location.

Eagle has pursued acquisitions which complement its existing operations and
market area. Each of the assisted acquisitions made by the Bank has had an
immediate positive impact on the Company's net income and allowed it to
maintain asset quality. By primarily pursuing assisted acquisitions involving
the FDIC or the RTC, the Company believes that it has successfully expanded at
a reasonable cost and without dilution to shareholder value.

Eagle's expansion strategy is reflected in its recent acquisition of the Bank
of Hartford, which represents a natural extension of Eagle's existing markets
since many residents of Bristol and Torrington commute to the Hartford area.
The Hartford market area is contiguous to Eagle's current market areas, and has
a higher population density and is generally more affluent than the Bristol and
Torrington markets. The Company believes that its expansion into the Hartford
market area creates an additional opportunity for loan originations. In
addition, the combination of size, geographical proximity and cost of the
acquired banking offices is expected to have a positive impact on the Company's
efficiency ratio.

BUSINESS--As a holding company, the business operations of Eagle are
conducted through the Bank. The Bank primarily is engaged in the business of
accepting deposits from the general public and using such funds in the
origination of first mortgage loans for the purchase, refinance or construction
of 1-4 family homes. At June 30, 1994, 99.3%, or $780.6 million, of the Bank's
$786.1 million total loans receivable was secured by real estate. The Bank's
real estate loans included $681.9 million of first mortgage loans secured by 1-
4 family residential real estate (86.7% of total loans receivable), $62.0
million of home equity loans, secured by second deeds of trust on residential
real estate (7.9% of total loans receivable), $36.2 million of multi-family,
commercial real estate, and land loans (4.7% of total loans receivable). The
remaining $5.9 million of loans (0.7% of total loans receivable) were consumer
loans, primarily loans secured by deposits and personal loans.

Eagle has experienced increased loan originations (excluding purchased
loans), with $209.9 million of originations in fiscal 1993, compared to $163.5
million in fiscal 1992, and $164.1 million for the nine months ended June 30,
1994, compared to $147.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1993.
Increased loan origination activity during fiscal 1993 and the first nine
months of fiscal 1994 is due in substantial part to refinancings of mortgage
loans in reaction to generally low market interest rates. However, as a result
of recent increases in mortgage interest rates, Eagle anticipates a decline in
1-4 family mortgage loan originations and, beginning in fiscal 1995, intends to
implement strategies which will put more emphasis on originating commercial
real estate loans within its primary market areas, predominantly on existing
structures. This will involve hiring additional personnel with proven
experience in commercial real estate loan products. Eagle also intends to put
more emphasis on its multi-family and consumer lending programs. See "Certain
Considerations--Commercial Real Estate, Multi-Family and Consumer Lending" and
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations--Financial Condition--Loans Receivable, Net." The

5
<PAGE>

marketing of these loans will focus on Eagle's existing customer base, as well
as new relationships within Eagle's primary market areas.

Based on its lending strategy, Eagle has been able to maintain relatively
stable asset quality. Total non-performing assets of Eagle were $10.4 million
at September 30, 1992, $12.0 million at September 30, 1993 and $12.0 million
(or $9.2 million excluding $2.8 million of non-performing assets acquired in
the Bank of Hartford transaction) at June 30, 1994. At those dates, non-
performing assets constituted 1.81%, 1.81% and 1.54%, respectively, of total
loans receivable and real estate owned. At June 30, 1994, Eagle's allowance for
loan losses totaled $8.4 million, or 104% of total non-performing loans.

Eagle Federal's funding strategy is focused primarily on developing core
deposits such as regular savings and checking accounts, and attracting long-
term certificates of deposit.

Eagle also makes available to its customers various investment products
through Liberty Securities Corporation, a registered broker-dealer not
affiliated with Eagle. These products include mutual funds, unit investment
trusts and fixed- and variable-rate annuity contracts, as well as discount
brokerage services.

REGULATION--Eagle, as a unitary thrift holding company, and Eagle Federal, as
its wholly-owned subsidiary, are subject to comprehensive regulation,
supervision and examination by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), as the
primary federal regulator of the Bank. The FDIC also has significant regulatory
authority over the Bank. The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
("FRB") has regulatory authority as to certain matters concerning the Bank.
Eagle Federal is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") System. FHLB
advances are a source of funds for the Bank.

CERTAIN CONSIDERATIONS

In addition to the other information set forth and incorporated by reference
in this Prospectus, the following factors should be considered carefully in
evaluating an investment in the Common Stock offered by this Prospectus.

SOURCE OF FUNDS FOR DIVIDENDS ON COMMON STOCK

Since Eagle has traditionally invested substantially all of its liquid assets
in the Bank, the payment of quarterly cash dividends by Eagle will continue to
be dependent upon the Bank paying cash dividends to Eagle. OTS regulations
impose limitations on cash dividends and other capital distributions by savings
institutions, such as the Bank. While Eagle has paid quarterly cash dividends
to its shareholders since 1987 out of dividends received from the Bank, and the
Bank is permitted under applicable OTS regulations to pay dividends to Eagle,
there can be no assurance that the OTS will permit the Bank in the future to
pay dividends to Eagle in an amount sufficient to enable Eagle to maintain its
current dividend policy. See "Market Prices and Dividends" and "Description of
Capital Stock--Dividend Limitations."

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

Eagle is subject to regulation as a savings and loan holding company and the
Bank, as a federally chartered savings bank, is subject to extensive regulation
by the OTS and the FDIC. The OTS and FDIC have adopted numerous regulations and
undertaken other regulatory initiatives, and further regulations and
initiatives are anticipated. In addition, among other significant effects, the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act ("FDICIA") provides for
regulatory seizure in the event of certain declines in the tangible capital
levels of insured institutions, requires risk-based deposit insurance premiums
based on assessment of the risks posed by an institution's assets, and

6
<PAGE>

imposes liability on holding companies for regulatory capital deficiencies of
insured institution subsidiaries under certain circumstances. This legislation,
or any future legislation, could have an adverse effect on Eagle. The Bank's
capital at June 30, 1994 exceeded the OTS minimum capital requirements for
tangible capital, core capital and risk-based capital. After giving effect to
completion of this Offering and the investment by Eagle of the net proceeds in
the Bank, on a pro forma basis at June 30, 1994, the Bank would meet the OTS
requirements for a "well-capitalized" institution. See "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and
Capital Resources."

As a federally chartered, FDIC-insured savings association, the Bank is also
subject to numerous statutory and regulatory requirements, including among
other things, the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 ("CRA"). Under CRA and the
OTS's implementing regulations, the Bank has a continuing and affirmative
obligation to help meet the credit needs of its local communities, including
low- and moderate-income neighborhoods, consistent with the safe and sound
operation of the institution. In addition, the OTS is required to take into
account the Bank's record of meeting the credit needs of its community in
determining whether to grant approval for certain types of applications. The
Bank's current CRA record is rated by the OTS as "satisfactory."

The Bank also is subject to OTS assessments to fund operations. These
assessments, which are paid semi-annually every January 31 and July 31,
incorporate a "general assessment" depending on the asset size of the
institution and an additional "premium assessment" for certain institutions
requiring increased supervision. The semi-annual assessment paid by the Bank in
August 1994 for the six-month period ending December 31, 1994 was comprised
solely of a general assessment of $87,451.

POTENTIALLY ADVERSE IMPACT OF INTEREST RATE CHANGES

The Company's results of operations depend to a large extent on the level of
the Bank's net interest income, which is the difference between interest income
from interest-earning assets (such as loans and investment and mortgage-backed
securities) and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities (such as
deposits and borrowings). If interest-rate fluctuations cause the Bank's cost
of funds to increase faster than the yield on its interest-bearing assets, its
net interest income will be reduced. The Company uses various monitors of
interest rate risk. However, Eagle is unable to predict future fluctuations in
interest rates or the specific impact thereof. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Asset and Liability
Management." The market value of most of the Bank's financial assets are
sensitive to fluctuations in market interest rates. Fixed-rate investments,
other investment and mortgage-backed securities and mortgage loans generally
decline in value as interest rates rise. The extent to which borrowers prepay
loans also is affected by prevailing interest rates. When interest rates
increase, borrowers are less likely to prepay their loans; whereas, when
interest rates decrease, borrowers are more likely to prepay loans. Funds
generated by prepayments may be invested at a lower rate. Similarly,
prepayments on mortgage-backed securities also may affect adversely the value
of such securities and related income. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE, MULTI-FAMILY AND CONSUMER LENDING

In anticipation of a decline in demand for 1-4 family residential loans as a
result of recent increases in mortgage interest rates, Eagle intends,
commencing in fiscal 1995, to implement strategies which will put more emphasis
on origination of commercial real estate loans within its primary market areas,
predominantly on existing structures. Eagle also intends to put more emphasis
on its existing multi-family and consumer lending programs. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--
Financial Condition--

7
<PAGE>

Loans Receivable, Net." Commercial real estate, multi-family and consumer
lending programs tend to improve interest rate sensitivity inasmuch as such
loans tend to be of shorter maturity than 1-4 family residential mortgage
loans, and are structured to adjust to market interest rates. For example,
Eagle currently anticipates that its commercial real estate loan products
generally will be indexed to the Bank's prime rate and will adjust in intervals
ranging from monthly to annually.

An integral part of commercial real estate lending will be the hiring of
additional personnel with proven experience in commercial real estate loan
products. Furthermore, commercial real estate and multi-family lending entails
significant additional risk as compared to 1-4 family residential lending.
Commercial real estate and multi-family loans typically involve relatively
large loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. The
payment experience on such loans is typically dependent on the successful
operation of the real estate project. The success of such projects is sensitive
to changes in commercial and multi-family real estate values and economic
conditions generally. Consumer lending generally involves more risk of
collectibility than 1-4 family residential mortgage loans because of the type
and nature of the collateral. As a result, consumer loan collections are
dependent to a large degree on the borrower's continuing financial stability,
and thus are more likely to be adversely affected by circumstances such as job
loss and personal bankruptcy, as well as general economic conditions.

In implementing any commercial real estate lending program, or in placing
greater emphasis on its multi-family and consumer loan products, Eagle may
experience losses on these loan products in excess of the level of loan losses
historically incurred by Eagle in its 1-4 family residential lending
activities.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Net proceeds to Eagle from the sale of the shares of Common Stock offered
hereby are estimated to be $15.5 million ($17.8 million if the Underwriter's
over-allotment option is exercised in full), based upon a price to the public
of $20 3/4 per share, and after deducting the underwriting discount and other
offering expenses payable by Eagle.

Eagle intends to contribute all of the net proceeds of the Offering to the
Bank as additional capital. This will increase the Bank's core capital from
4.69% at June 30, 1994 to 6.03% on a pro forma basis (or 6.23% if the over-
allotment option is exercised in full). The additional capital is being raised
by Eagle to increase the Bank's core capital. The Bank's core capital ratio
decreased from 7.38% at March 31, 1994 to 4.69% at June 30, 1994, primarily as
a result of its recent substantial increase in asset size relating to the Bank
of Hartford acquisition, which acquisition also reduced the Bank's amount of
core capital by $11.1 million (reflecting certain intangible assets acquired).
See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations--Results of Operations--Bank of Hartford Acquisition." The
additional capital also may assist Eagle in making further acquisitions in
Connecticut or other generally adjacent market areas and increase the market
liquidity of its Common Stock. There are currently no pending negotiations or
assisted bid submissions as to any acquisition.

MARKET PRICES AND DIVIDENDS

Eagle's Common Stock has been quoted on the Nasdaq National Market under the
symbol "EGFC" since September 13, 1994. Prior to September 13, 1994, Eagle's
Common Stock was listed on the American Stock Exchange ("AMEX"). Eagle
determined to change the listing and quotation of the Common Stock to the
Nasdaq National Market because, among other factors, it believes that the
Nasdaq National Market system of competing market makers should provide greater
liquidity in Eagle's Common Stock and reduce price volatility when trading
volume is low.

The table below sets forth, for the fiscal periods indicated, the reported
high and low sale prices of the Common Stock on the AMEX through September 12,
1994, and as quoted on the Nasdaq National Market thereafter, and the cash
dividends paid per share. Reported sales prices and cash dividends on the
Common Stock have been adjusted retroactively to give effect to a 10% stock
dividend paid in September 1993.

On September 29, 1994, the last reported sales price of the Common Stock, as
quoted on the Nasdaq National Market, was $20 1/4 per share. As of September
29, 1994, there were approximately 1,850 holders of record of the 3,131,911
shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding.

The Board of Directors has declared quarterly cash dividends since shortly
after Eagle's initial public offering in 1987. Eagle also established a
dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plan in 1993. Since Eagle has
traditionally invested substantially all of its liquid assets in the Bank as
capital, the payment of quarterly cash dividends by Eagle in the future will
continue to be dependent upon the Bank paying cash dividends to Eagle. The
payment of cash dividends by the Bank will depend upon its earnings, financial
condition (including capital needs), regulatory limitations and other factors
deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. See "Certain Considerations--Source
of Funds for Dividends on Common Stock," "Description of Capital Stock--
Dividend Limitations" and Note 13 to Consolidated Financial Statements as to

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

At June 30, 1994, Eagle had total assets of $1.1 billion, compared to $792.5
million and $751.2 million at September 30, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The
primary reason for the growth from fiscal year end 1993 to June 30, 1994 is the
recent Bank of Hartford acquisition in which Eagle acquired $265.0 million of
assets (not including $11.0 million of goodwill and core deposit intangibles).
See "--Financial Condition." The increase in assets during fiscal 1993 reflects
$209.9 million of total loan originations during the year, which resulted in
growth of $88.2 million, or 15.5%, in the net loans receivable portfolio from
fiscal year end 1992 to 1993. Deposits grew to $982.7 million at June 30, 1994
from $706.2 million at September 30, 1993 and $677.7 million at September 30,
1992. The growth in deposits includes the impact of the May 1993 purchase of a
branch banking office located in Brookfield, Connecticut with $8.2 million in
deposits and the June 1994 assumption of $275.0 million of deposits of the Bank
of Hartford. As a result of its acquisitions and opening one new branch in the
Bristol region in January 1992, Eagle's banking offices increased to 23 at June
30, 1994 from nine at September 30, 1991.

For the nine months ended June 30, 1994, Eagle had net income of $5.6
million, or $1.74 per share, compared to $4.7 million, or $1.51 per share, for
the same period in 1993. For the years ended September 30, 1993 and 1992,
Eagle's net income was $6.2 million, or $1.97 per share, and $5.2 million, or
$1.70 per share, respectively. Eagle's return on average shareholders' equity
for the nine months ended June 30, 1994 and the years ended September 30, 1993
and 1992 was 12.01% (annualized), 10.69% and 9.80%, respectively. For the same
periods, Eagle's return on average assets was 0.90% (annualized), 0.79% and
0.81%, respectively.

Increases in net income since fiscal 1991 are principally attributable to
increases in the average balance, or volume, of interest-earning assets, as net
interest margins remained relatively stable over such periods. Since the second
quarter of fiscal 1994, however, interest rates have risen. As a result, those
of Eagle's assets which are subject to repricing in the short-term have begun
to earn higher yields. In contrast, the prevailing market interest rates paid
on deposit liabilities, Eagle's primary source of funds and largest amount of
interest-bearing liabilities, have not significantly increased. Eagle
anticipates that if market interest rates continue to rise, the cost of
interest-bearing deposits will increase, thereby having a negative impact on
Eagle's average interest rate spread and net interest margin.

Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994 will be favorably affected
by the Bank of Hartford acquisition. See "--Results of Operations--Bank of
Hartford Acquisition." Net income for such quarter will be reduced by several
non-recurring expenses relating to future retirement payments for services
rendered by two executive officers. See "--Results of Operations--Comparison of
Nine Months Ended June 30, 1994 and 1993--Other Expenses."

The operations of the Company and the entire thrift industry are
significantly affected by prevailing economic conditions, competition and the
monetary and fiscal policies of governmental agencies. Lending activities are
influenced by the demand for and supply of housing, competition among lenders,
the level of interest rates and the availability of funds. Deposit flow and
costs of funds are influenced by prevailing market rates of interest, primarily
on competing investments, account maturities, and the levels of personal income
and savings nationwide.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--BANK OF HARTFORD ACQUISITION

The Bank of Hartford acquisition was completed on June 10, 1994 and, although
reflected in the financial condition of Eagle at June 30, 1994, did not have a
significant impact on Eagle's operating

13
<PAGE>

results for the nine months ended June 30, 1994. As part of the acquisition,
Eagle acquired $265.0 million of assets (not including $11.0 million of
goodwill and core deposit intangibles), and assumed $272.8 million of deposits
as well as $2.3 million of advance payments by borrowers for taxes and
insurance and $978,000 of other liabilities.

The assets acquired included $112.4 million of cash and receivables due from
the FDIC, $80.6 million of loans, $72.7 million of investments and mortgage-
backed securities, and $2.6 million of other assets (consisting of $1.4 million
of accrued interest receivable, $880,000 of mortgage servicing rights and
$260,000 of real estate acquired in settlement of loans). See "--Financial
Condition."

The $112.4 million in cash and receivables due from the FDIC included $30.4
million of cash, amounts due from banks and interest bearing deposits of the
Bank of Hartford which were acquired. The remaining $82.0 million of cash and
receivables due from the FDIC represented the excess of liabilities assumed
over assets acquired in the transaction, the estimated amount due from the FDIC
to adjust the investment and mortgage-backed securities to market value at June
10, 1994 and certain settlement items currently being negotiated with the FDIC,
less an $8.7 million premium paid by Eagle to the FDIC to purchase the assets
and assume the liabilities. Of the $82.0 million of cash and receivables due
from the FDIC, $72.3 million was received on June 13, 1994. At June 30, 1994,
substantially all of the acquired cash, net of the amount used to fund deposit
run-off, was invested in federal funds and interest-bearing deposits at a
weighted average yield of 4.25%. Eagle intends to increase the yield received
on such funds, primarily through the use of such funds to originate loans and,
to a lesser extent, to purchase short-and intermediate-term investments.

Investments and mortgage-backed securities acquired included $24.1 million of
debt securities, consisting of $16.0 million of collateralized mortgage
obligations, $4.9 million of U.S. government agency and corporation debt, $2.3
million of U.S. Treasury securities and an $880,000 municipal bond. Also
acquired were $48.5 million of Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation mortgage-
backed certificates. The actual purchase price of the investment and mortgage-
backed securities is subject to adjustment based upon a valuation of such
securities as of June 10, 1994 to be obtained by the FDIC. Eagle intends to
retain the portfolio, except for FHLB securities with an estimated market value
at June 10, 1994 of approximately $4.9 million, which do not meet Eagle's
investment securities criteria because of their repricing formula. Eagle is
seeking to have the FDIC exclude the FHLB securities from the Bank of Hartford
acquisition. Based upon management's valuation of the investment and mortgage-
backed securities acquired at June 10, 1994, except for the FHLB securities,
which are not expected to be retained, the acquired portfolio had an estimated
weighted average yield of 7.22% at June 30, 1994.

Loans acquired in the Bank of Hartford acquisition included $60.0 million of
residential 1-4 family mortgage loans and $20.6 million of consumer loans,
primarily home equity loans. The net premium of loans acquired was $190,000.
The weighted average yield of the $80.6 million acquired loans was 8.33% at
June 30, 1994. This compares to a weighted average yield of 7.06% for Eagle's
$705.3 million other loans receivable at June 30, 1994. Also as part of the
Bank of Hartford acquisition, Eagle purchased for $880,000 the loan servicing
rights on $80.5 million of 1-4 family residential loans with an average loan
servicing fee of 0.375%. The $272.8 million of deposits assumed in the Bank of
Hartford acquisition had a weighted average interest cost of 3.82% at June 30,
1994.

Based solely on the weighted average yields of the interest-earning assets
acquired and the weighted average costs of the interest-bearing liabilities
assumed, the average interest rate spread relating to such assets and
liabilities acquired in the Bank of Hartford acquisition was approximately
2.40% at June 30, 1994, which would significantly increase Eagle's net interest
income. However, the actual impact of the Bank of Hartford acquisition on net
interest income will depend upon a number of variables including the amount of
deposit runoff subsequent to the acquisition, how management reinvests the net
cash and receivables from the acquisition, the prepayment experience on the
investment and mortgage-backed securities and loans purchased, and changes in
interest rates.

14
<PAGE>

Based solely on the purchase of mortgage servicing rights and additional
customer service fees on deposits at June 30, 1994, Eagle's other income would
increase by approximately $700,000, on an annualized basis. However, the actual
impact of the Bank of Hartford acquisition on other income is subject to many
of the same variables as discussed above for net interest income.

The Bank of Hartford transaction is expected to have a positive impact on
Eagle's efficiency ratio (other expenses to net interest income and other
income). As to other expenses, Eagle believes that the primary impact of the
transaction will be additional office occupancy and compensation related
expenses for the six new banking offices acquired. Eagle has retained
approximately 50 former branch personnel of the Bank of Hartford to operate the
new banking offices. It is estimated that the annual compensation and benefits
expense for these and other additional employees expected to be hired in the
first year will be approximately $1.3 million. First year occupancy expenses
for the six offices are anticipated to be approximately $450,000. Other
expenses such as federal insurance premiums, data processing, marketing and
other operating expenses also will increase as a result of the increase in
deposit accounts. As to the six new offices, as of June 30, 1994 the average
amount of deposits held in each office was $41.6 million, which approximates
the average amount of deposits held in the other banking offices of Eagle.

As part of the Bank of Hartford acquisition, Eagle intends to purchase for
$65,000 three former Bank of Hartford banking offices. Based on current
appraisals, Eagle believes that the fair value of the purchased offices will
exceed significantly the amount of the purchase price. The final determination
of fair value is subject to further review of current appraisals and
environmental issues related to the purchased offices. The amount of any excess
of fair value over the purchase price will result in a corresponding increase
in the carrying value of the purchased premises and a reduction in the amount
of the intangible asset that resulted from the Bank of Hartford transaction.

The Bank of Hartford acquisition initially resulted in $11.9 million of
intangible assets, including $8.6 million of goodwill, $2.4 million of core
deposit intangibles and $880,000 of purchased mortgage servicing rights. The
goodwill amount will be reduced by any amount that the fair value of banking
offices to be acquired from the FDIC as part of the acquisition exceeds the
purchase price, as discussed above. The amortization of the goodwill on a
straight-line basis over a period of 15 years will increase non-interest
expenses by approximately $570,000 annually. The core deposit intangible, which
is based upon certain industry average estimates and assumptions, will be
amortized on a accelerated basis over a 10 year period and will increase annual
non-interest expenses on average by approximately $238,000 with charges of
$588,000, $370,000, $292,000, $230,000 and $182,000 in each of the first five
years following the acquisition, respectively. The $880,000 cost of purchased
mortgage servicing rights will be amortized over the life of the loans being
serviced.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--COMPARISON OF NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1994 AND 1993

NET INCOME--Eagle had net income of $5.6 million, or $1.74 per share, for the
nine months ended June 30, 1994, an increase of $888,000, or 18.8%, from net
income of $4.7 million, or $1.51 per share, for the comparable period in 1993.
Net interest income increased $1.5 million, or 7.3%, from $20.4 million for the
nine months ended June 30, 1993 to $21.9 million for the comparable period in
1994. Other income increased $441,000, or 24.4%, to $2.2 million for the nine
months ended June 30, 1994 and other expenses increased $1.5 million, or 12.1%,
to $13.5 million.

NET INTEREST INCOME--Net interest income increased $1.5 million, or 7.3%, to
$21.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1994, as compared to $20.4
million for the nine months ended June 30, 1993. The increased net interest
income is reflected in a $135,000 increase in interest income, coupled with a
$1.4 million decrease in interest expense. For the nine months ended June 30,
1994, Eagle's average interest rate spread was 3.40%, and its net interest
margin was 3.61%, compared to 3.42% and 3.65%, respectively, for the nine
months ended June 30, 1993.

15
<PAGE>

Interest income during the nine months ended June 30, 1994 remained
relatively stable compared to the same period in 1993, increasing $135,000, or
0.3%, to $42.1 million. Average interest earning assets increased to $807.7
million for the nine months ended June 30, 1994, compared to $744.8 million for
the same period in 1993. This increase is reflected primarily in a $64.6
million increase in average loans receivable which resulted from high levels of
loan originations during the nine months ended June 30, 1994. The growth in
average interest-earning assets was substantially offset by a 56 basis point
decline in the average yield of such assets.

Interest expense decreased $1.4 million, or 6.3%, to $20.2 million for the
nine months ended June 30, 1994 compared to $21.6 million for the same period
in 1993. Notwithstanding a $39.1 million increase in average deposits to $736.3
million for the nine months ended June 30, 1994, the interest expense
attributable to such funds decreased $2.0 million, resulting in an average cost
of deposits of 3.49% for the 1994 period compared to 4.06% for the 1993 period.
Average total borrowings also increased to $22.1 million during the 1994 period
compared to $6.1 million during the 1993 period. However, the average cost of
such borrowings in the 1994 period was 5.62% compared to 7.44% in the 1993
period. The average cost of funds for Eagle was 3.55% for the nine months ended
June 30, 1994 compared to 4.09% for the same period in 1993.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES--Eagle added provisions of $900,000 to its
allowance for loan losses during the nine month period ended June 30, 1994.
This compares to $1.2 million in loan loss provisions for the nine months ended
June 30, 1993. Net loan charge-offs for the nine months ended June 30, 1994
were $1.0 million (or 0.15% of average net loans receivable). The decreased
provision in 1994 reflects management's analysis of the risk elements of the
loan portfolio, current delinquency and payment trends (including the slightly
increased level of loan charge-offs in the nine months ended June 30, 1994) and
the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. At June 30, 1994, Eagle's
allowance for loan losses was $8.4 million, or 1.07% of loans receivable,
compared with $4.5 million, or 0.70%, one year earlier. The allowance for loan
losses at June 30, 1994 includes $3.5 million added to the allowance as part of
the Bank of Hartford transaction. See "--Financial Condition--Allowance for
Loan Losses."

OTHER INCOME--Other income increased $441,000, or 24.4%, to $2.2 million for
the nine months ended June 30, 1994 from $1.8 million for the same period in
1993. The increase is attributable primarily to a $120,000 net gain on sale of
mortgage loans and a $218,000 increase in customer service fee income.

OTHER EXPENSES--Other expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 1994
increased $1.5 million, or 12.1%, to $13.5 million compared to $12.1 million
for the nine month period ended June 30, 1993. The largest contributing factors
to the increase included higher compensation related expenses of $6.4 million
for the nine months ended June 30, 1994, compared to $5.5 million for the same
period in 1993, and larger provisions for losses on real estate owned of
$435,000, compared to $199,000 for the same respective periods. The higher
compensation related expenses reflect increased pension

18
<PAGE>

expenses for the 1994 period compared to 1993 because the Company's pension
plan was over-funded during part of 1993. Also, the Company's post-retirement
benefits expenses increased as a result of the adoption of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 106 (see "--Cumulative Effect of
Accounting Change" below). In addition to the increased compensation expenses
reported for the nine months ended June 30, 1994, Eagle will record several
non-recurring expenses totaling approximately $500,000, after tax, in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1994 relating to the retirements of Ralph T. Linsley,
President and Chief Executive Officer, and Howard E. Walsh, Vice President.

The increase in the provision for losses on real estate owned during the
first nine months of fiscal 1994 reflects Eagle's current strategy to sell
properties more aggressively than in the past. A total of 29 properties with a
book value of $2.2 million were sold in the nine months ended June 30, 1994.

INCOME TAXES--Income tax expense was $4.1 million for the nine months ended
June 30, 1994, compared to $4.2 million for the same period in 1993.
Notwithstanding higher income during the 1994 period as compared to the 1993
period, income tax expense was $157,000, or 3.7%, less for the 1994 period. As
a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," (see
"--Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change" below), Eagle is permitted a tax
benefit for certain real estate owned and loan loss provisions that was not
allowed under prior accounting rules.

CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF ACCOUNTING CHANGES--Eagle was required to adopt two
accounting pronouncements in the first quarter of fiscal 1994. The cumulative
effect of these accounting changes, net of related tax benefits, was to reduce
net income by approximately $30,000 during the nine months ended June 30, 1994.
The adoption of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", resulted in
recognition of a tax benefit of approximately $1.3 million during the nine
months ended June 30, 1994. The adoption of SFAS No. 106, "Accounting for
Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions", resulted in a one-time cumulative
adjustment that, net of the related tax benefit, reduced net income by
approximately $1.3 million.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--COMPARISON OF YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1993, 1992 AND
1991

NET INCOME--Net income for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1993 was $6.2
million, or $1.97 per share, compared to $5.2 million, or $1.70 per share, for
fiscal 1992 and $4.0 million or $1.37 per share, for fiscal 1991. The $1.0
million, or 19.1%, increase in net income from fiscal 1992 to fiscal 1993 is
primarily the result of a $5.1 million, or 23.0%, increase in net interest
income. The provision for loan losses and other income each remained relatively
stable during fiscal 1993, increasing $62,000 and $42,000, respectively, from
fiscal 1992 levels, while other expenses increased $3.4 million, or 25.9%, and
income taxes increased $737,000, or 15.0%. The $1.2 million, or 28.8%, increase
in net income from fiscal 1991 to 1992 is primarily the result of a $5.6
million, or 33.4%, increase in net interest income, and a $809,000, or 48.9%,
increase in other income. These increases were partially offset by a $3.7
million, or 40.0%, increase in other expenses and a $1.5 million, or 44.9%,
increase in income taxes.

NET INTEREST INCOME--Net interest income increased $5.1 million, or 23.0%, to
$27.3 million for fiscal 1993, compared to $22.2 million for fiscal 1992. The
fiscal 1992 net interest income represents a $5.6 million, or 33.4%, increase
from net interest income of $16.6 million for fiscal 1991. The increase from
fiscal 1992 to fiscal 1993 is attributable to a $132.0 million increase in
average interest-earning assets and, to a lesser degree, to an increase in the
average interest rate spread from 3.26% in fiscal 1992 to 3.40% in fiscal 1993,
and an increase in the net interest margin from 3.59% to 3.64% for such
periods. The average interest rate spread was 2.88% and the net interest margin
was 3.43% in fiscal 1991.

Interest income increased $3.9 million, or 7.5%, during fiscal 1993, as a
result of a $132.0 million increase in average interest-earning assets, which
was somewhat offset by a decrease in the average

19
<PAGE>

yield on interest-earning assets from 8.39% in fiscal 1992 to 7.43% in fiscal
1993. The increase in average interest-earning assets includes a $120.7 million
increase in average loans receivable and a $17.8 million increase in average
mortgage-backed securities. The growth in the average loan portfolio during
fiscal 1993 compared to fiscal 1992 reflects strong loan origination activity
of $209.9 million in fiscal 1993, principally of 1-4 family loans, as well as
the acquisition of $85.0 million of loans of Danbury Federal in March 1992. The
growth in the average loan portfolio was significantly offset by a 122 basis
point decline in the average yield on such assets and a 66 basis point decrease
in the average yield on mortgage-backed securities.

Interest income increased $4.6 million, or 9.8%, in fiscal 1992 compared to
fiscal 1991, primarily as a result of a $133.0 million increase in average
interest-earning assets, which was somewhat offset by a 135 basis point decline
in the average yield on such assets. The primary components of the increase in
average interest-earning assets from fiscal 1991 to fiscal 1992 were a $79.9
million increase in the average loans receivable portfolio and a $47.0 million
increase in the average investment securities portfolio, primarily attributable
to the Danbury Federal and Brookfield Bank acquisitions. In those acquisitions,
on a combined basis, Eagle acquired $85.0 million of loans and $98.8 million of
cash, substantially all of which cash was invested initially in investment
securities.

Interest expense was $28.5 million in fiscal 1993, a decrease of $1.2
million, or 4.1%, from $29.7 million in fiscal 1992. This decrease was due to a
decline in the average cost of deposits and borrowed money to 4.03% in fiscal
1993 from 5.13% in fiscal 1992, offset by an increase in the average balance of
these funds by $127.1 million, reflecting a $129.9 million increase in the
average balance of deposits.

Interest expense was $29.7 million in fiscal 1992, or $941,000 less than
fiscal 1991. While interest expense declined only slightly, there was a 173
basis point decline in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. This
substantial decrease in average cost, coupled with a $10.6 million decrease in
the average balance of borrowed funds, was largely offset by a $143.0 million
increase in average deposits, primarily as a result of the Danbury Federal and
Brookfield Bank acquisitions. As a result of declining market interest rates,
the average cost of such funds decreased to 5.13% in fiscal 1992 from 6.86% in
fiscal 1991.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES--The provision for loan losses totaled $1.7 million
in fiscal 1993 compared to $1.6 million in fiscal 1992 and $1.7 million in
fiscal 1991. Net loan charge-offs for each of the fiscal years ended September
30, 1993, 1992 and 1991 were $714,000 (or 0.11% of average net loans
receivable), $938,000 (or 0.19% of average net loans receivable) and $592,000
(or 0.14% of average net loans receivable). At September 30, 1993, Eagle's
allowance for loan losses was $5.0 million, or 0.76%, of loans receivable,
compared to $4.0 million, or 0.70%, and $1.5 million, or 0.36%, at September
30, 1992 and 1991, respectively. The level of provisions in each fiscal year
reflects management's determination as to the adequacy of the allowance for
loan loss reserves based on, among other things, an analysis of the risk
elements of the loans receivable portfolio, current trends related to loan
payments and general economic conditions as well as volume growth and
composition of the loan portfolio. For fiscal 1992, in addition to the $1.6
million provision, Eagle increased the allowance for loan losses by $1.8
million in connection with the acquisition of $85.0 million of loans of Danbury
Federal transaction. See "--Financial Condition--Allowance for Loan Losses."

OTHER INCOME--Other income was $2.5 million for both fiscal 1993 and 1992,
compared to $1.7 million for fiscal 1991. Customer service fee income, the
largest component of other income, was $1.7 million, $1.3 million and $887,000,
in fiscal 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. These fee income increases are
attributable both to increased checking account activity, as well as growth in
Eagle's deposits, primarily as a result of the Danbury Federal and Brookfield
Bank acquisitions. Other non-interest income in fiscal 1992 was $1.2 million,
compared to $764,000 in each of fiscal years 1993 and 1991. Included in other
non-interest income for fiscal 1992 was $112,500 received in settlement of a
lawsuit regarding four real estate owned properties disposed of in prior years,
as well as a recovery of prior year's legal fees of $17,000 relating to such
lawsuit, plus $120,000 of one-time loan servicing fees resulting from a
temporary loan servicing arrangement with the RTC as part of the Danbury
Federal acquisition.

22
<PAGE>

OTHER EXPENSES--Other expenses increased $3.4 million, or 25.9%, to $16.3
million in fiscal 1993 compared to $12.9 million in fiscal 1992. The largest
contributing factor to this increase is that fiscal 1993 results include a full
year of operating expenses from the Danbury Federal and Brookfield Bank
acquisitions, which were completed in mid-fiscal 1992. Compensation, payroll
taxes and benefits increased $1.4 million to $7.4 million for fiscal 1993 from
$6.0 million for fiscal 1992, and occupancy expenses increased $391,000 to $1.9
million for fiscal 1993 from $1.5 million for fiscal 1992, due primarily to
staffing and operating the seven acquired banking offices. An increase of
$125,000 in advertising relates to the promotion of the acquired banking
offices in the greater Danbury area, as well as marketing of new product lines.
An increase of $233,000 in federal insurance premiums reflects an increase in
insurable deposits acquired, as well as growth in the deposit portfolio
excluding the acquisitions. Data processing expenses increased $194,000 to $1.1
million for fiscal 1993 from $882,000 for fiscal 1992. Approximately two-thirds
of the increase is attributable to servicing the loan and deposit products
acquired in the Danbury Federal and Brookfield Bank transactions. In general,
most operating expenses, such as office supplies, postage and telephone,
increased due to operating an additional seven banking offices. Expenses
relating to the operation of real estate acquired in settlement of loans
increased $189,000 and includes both carrying and acquisition/disposal costs
while the provision for real estate owned losses increased $48,000 between
periods based on an ongoing assessment of the properties owned.

Other expenses increased $3.7 million, or 40.0%, to $12.9 million in fiscal
1992 compared to $9.2 million in fiscal 1991. The largest contributing factor
was an increase of $1.4 million, or 24.2%, for compensation, payroll taxes and
benefits and relates primarily to the acquisition and staffing for the latter
part of fiscal 1992 of the seven banking offices acquired in the Danbury
Federal and Brookfield Bank transactions. Also contributing was an increase of
$400,000 for office occupancy pertaining to the relocation of an existing
banking office, the opening of a new banking office and the seven banking
offices acquired. Increases of $335,000 for federal insurance premiums, and
$208,000, or 30.9%, for data processing expense both result from the larger
deposit base. Marketing expense, including costs for promotion of the new,
relocated, and acquired banking offices, increased $111,000, or 37.2%. The
provision for real estate owned losses increased $198,000 between periods and
was based on an ongoing assessment of the properties owned. Expenses relating
to the operation of real estate acquired in settlement of loans increased by
$389,000 and include both carrying and acquisition/disposal costs. Other
expenses increased by $694,000, reflecting the increased costs associated with
the operation of seven additional banking offices.

INCOME TAXES--Income tax expense increased to $5.6 million in fiscal 1993
from $4.9 million in fiscal 1992 and $3.4 million in fiscal 1991. The increased
amount of income tax expense in each successive year reflects increased income
of Eagle. Eagle's effective tax rate for fiscal years 1993, 1992 and 1991 was
47.8%, 48.7% and 45.7%, respectively. Income tax expense was in excess of the
federal statutory corporate rate, primarily as a result of state income taxes,
limitations on the deductibility of Eagle's provisions for loan losses, and
losses on the sale of real estate owned. See Note 10 to Consolidated Financial
Statements.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets of the Company increased to $1.1 billion at June 30, 1994 from
$792.5 million at September 30, 1993 and $751.2 million at September 30, 1992.
The growth in assets from fiscal year end 1992 to 1993 reflects $209.9 million
of total loan originations during the year, which resulted in an increase of
$88.2 million in the net loans receivable portfolio from fiscal year end 1992
to 1993. The growth from fiscal year end 1993 to June 30, 1994 reflects
primarily Eagle's acquisition of certain assets and assumption of certain
liabilities of the Bank of Hartford from the FDIC.

In the Bank of Hartford acquisition, which was completed on June 10, 1994,
Eagle recorded an additional $276.0 million of assets. The assets acquired
included $80.6 million of loans, (substantially all of which were 1-4 family
first mortgage and home equity loans) before giving effect to the $190,000

23
<PAGE>

premium paid on such loans and an additional $3.5 million allowance for loan
losses recorded in connection with such loans. See "--Allowance for Loan
Losses." Eagle also acquired $112.4 million of cash, other amounts due from
banks and cash receivables due from the FDIC, $72.7 million of investment
securities (substantially all of which were U.S. Treasury and government agency
securities), and $13.6 million of other assets. The $13.6 million of other
assets included $8.7 million of goodwill, $2.4 million of core deposit
intangibles, $1.4 million of interest receivable on the purchased loans,
$880,000 of mortgage servicing rights and $260,000 of real estate acquired in
settlement of loans. Also, as part of the Bank of Hartford acquisition, Eagle
intends to purchase three of the former Bank of Hartford banking offices. See
"--Results of Operations--Bank of Hartford Acquisition."

LOANS RECEIVABLE, NET--The Company's net loans receivable portfolio increased
to $775.1 million at June 30, 1994 from $656.3 million at September 30, 1993
and $568.1 million at September 30, 1992. As noted above, the growth in the net
loans receivable portfolio reflects strong total loan originations of $209.9
million during fiscal 1993 and $164.1 million during the nine months ended June
30, 1994. Increased loan origination activity during fiscal 1993 and the first
nine months of fiscal 1994 is due in substantial part to refinancings of
mortgage loans in reaction to generally low market interest rates. Also, in
March 1992 Eagle acquired $85.0 million of loans of Danbury Federal, and in
June 1994 the Bank acquired $80.6 million of loans in the Bank of Hartford
transaction. Substantially all of the loans purchased in these transactions
consisted of 1-4 family first mortgage and home equity loans.

The following table sets forth the composition of the total loan portfolio of
Eagle, in dollar amounts and in percentages, at the dates shown, and a
reconciliation of loans receivable, net.

Eagle traditionally has concentrated its lending activities on the
origination and purchase of loans secured by first mortgage liens for the
purchase, refinancing or construction of residential real property. At June 30,
1994, mortgage loans, including those secured by 1-4 family residential units,
multi-family residential units, commercial real estate and land, aggregated
$718.2 million or 91.4% of Eagle's loans receivable portfolio. At September 30,
1993 and 1992, such mortgage loans aggregated $614.5 million, or 92.5%, and
$527.7 million, or 91.4%, respectively. The remaining loans in Eagle's
portfolio consist of consumer loans, primarily home equity loans. At June 30,
1994, over 97% of Eagle's loans secured by real estate were secured by property
located in Connecticut. Substantially all of the remaining real estate secured
loans were originated prior to 1982.

At June 30, 1994, the Company's largest loan relationship aggregated $5.8
million. That relationship represents six loans, of which $3.0 million are
secured by multi-family properties and $2.8 million are secured by commercial
properties. At that date, the next largest lending relationship was $3.4
million, representing 12 loans secured by multi-family residential properties.
Each other lending relationship aggregated less than $3.0 million.

At June 30, 1994, 57.8% of Eagle's net loans receivable portfolio consisted
of adjustable-rate mortgage and home equity loans, compared to 58.3% and 64.5%
at September 30, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

As a result of generally higher mortgage interest rates and a lower demand
for loan refinancing, Eagle anticipates a decline in demand for 1-4 family
residential mortgages and, beginning in fiscal 1995, intends to implement
strategies which will put more emphasis on originating commercial real estate
loans, predominantly on existing structures. This will involve hiring
additional personnel with proven experience in commercial real estate loan
products. Eagle also intends to put more emphasis on its multi-family and
consumer lending programs. The marketing of these loans will focus on Eagle's
existing customer base, as well as new relationships within Eagle's primary
market areas. By increasing originations of commercial real estate, multi-
family and consumer loans, Eagle's goal is to increase the yield on its loan
portfolio while offsetting the anticipated decline in 1-4 family residential
loan originations. Eagle also anticipates that these loan products generally
will be more interest-rate sensitive, with rates typically adjusting from
monthly to annually. See "Certain Considerations--Commercial Real Estate,
Multi-Family and Consumer Lending."

At June 30, 1994 commercial real estate loans totaled $12.5 million,
consisting of 66 loans with an average balance of $187,000 and secured by a mix
of retail and professional office properties. In order to implement its
anticipated commercial real estate lending strategies, Eagle is currently
seeking to hire an experienced senior commercial lender, credit analyst and
support personnel. In the first year of any commercial real estate lending
program, in light of personnel and other start-up costs, Eagle expects such
program to have a negligible impact on results of operations. Thereafter,
commercial real estate lending is expected to contribute positively to Eagle's
net income.

At June 30, 1994, consumer loans totaled $67.9 million and multi-family loans
totaled $17.7 million. Over the next three fiscal years, Eagle plans to place
greater emphasis on these loan products, with a three year goal to increase
consumer loans outstanding by 50% and multi-family loans by 100%. Eagle intends
to continue emphasizing home equity loans (91.2% of consumer loans at June 30,
1994), as well as automobile and personal loans. The increase in multi-family
loans is expected to develop from an increase in demand for rental units in
Eagle's primary market areas. As to both consumer and multi-family lending,
Eagle intends to utilize its existing credit programs and personnel, although
multi-family lending personnel will be supplemented by the credit analyst
expected to be hired for commercial real estate lending.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES--At June 30, 1994, Eagle's allowance for loan
losses totaled $8.4 million, compared to $5.0 million at September 30, 1993,
and $4.0 million at September 30, 1992.

25
<PAGE>

Management monitors the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and
periodically makes additions based upon an ongoing assessment of the loan
portfolio. During the nine months ended June 30, 1994, in addition to a
$900,000 provisions for loan losses, Eagle increased the allowance by $3.5
million in connection with the acquisition of $80.6 million of loans in the
Bank of Hartford transaction. During fiscal 1992, in addition to a $1.6 million
provision for loan losses, Eagle increased the allowance by $1.8 million in
connection with the acquisition of $85.0 million of loans in the Danbury
Federal transaction.

The following table sets forth an analysis of the Bank's allowance for loan
losses for the periods indicated.

Management monitors the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and
periodically makes additions in the form of provisions for loan losses based
upon an ongoing assessment of the loan portfolio. These provisions are based on
an evaluation of the loan portfolio, past loan loss experience, current market
and economic conditions, volume, growth and composition of the loan portfolio,
and other relevant factors. The provisions are computed quarterly based on a
review of the loan portfolio. The additional $3.5 million and $1.8 million of
allowance for loan losses that were booked as part of the Bank of Hartford and
Danbury Federal transactions, respectively, were based on management's
evaluation of the loans acquired in these transactions. Such evaluation
included an analysis of the loss on all delinquent loans as well as the risk of
the remaining 1-4 family and consumer loans acquired. The additional allowances
were accounted for as an adjustment to the premium paid by Eagle in the Bank of
Hartford and Danbury Federal transactions.

The ratio of allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 104%, 77%
and 100% at June 30, 1994, September 30, 1993 and September 30, 1992,
respectively. This coverage ratio will vary from time to time based upon the
composition of, and management's analysis of the risk elements in the loan
portfolio, as well as the composition of problem loans. The allowance for loan
losses is not based on a percentage of non-performing loans, but on the total
portfolio classified by risk group plus estimated losses on individual problem
loans.

The following table sets forth the amount of accruing loans delinquent 60-89

(a) Includes $431,000 of loans delinquent 60-89 days or more acquired in the
Bank of Hartford transaction.
(b) Includes $2.5 million of non-performing loans acquired in the Bank of
Hartford transaction.
(c) Includes an additional $3.5 million of allowance for loan losses
established as part of the Bank of Hartford transaction.

At June 30, 1994, loans delinquent 60 days or more (including non-performing
loans) totaled $6.8 million (before giving effect to $2.9 million of such loans
acquired in the Bank of Hartford transaction), compared to $8.9 million at
September 30, 1993 and $6.3 million at September 30, 1992. Eagle's progress in
reducing loans delinquent 60 days or more during the nine months ended June 30,
1994 is attributable to a stabilized Connecticut economy coupled with the
Bank's increased collection efforts earlier in the collection cycle.

Various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination
process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for losses on loans and real
estate owned. Such agencies may require the Bank

27
<PAGE>

to recognize additions to the allowances based on their judgments of
information available to them at the time of their examination. The OTS
completed a regularly scheduled examination of the Bank during 1993 and no
changes to the allowance for loan losses were required at that time.

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS--All mortgage and home equity loans generally are
placed on a non-accrual basis when a loan is contractually delinquent for more
than three complete calendar months, when collectability is doubtful or when
legal action has been instituted. Unsecured consumer loans are placed on a non-
accrual basis when a payment default has existed for more than 60 days or when
collectability is doubtful or when legal action has been instituted; such loans
are fully charged-off when a payment default has existed for 90 days.

At June 30, 1994, the Company's total non-performing assets, including non-
performing (or non-accrual) loans, real estate owned as a result of foreclosure
or deed in lieu thereof and in-substance foreclosures, was $12.0 million or
1.09% of total assets. Non-performing assets were $9.2 million or 1.10% of
total assets (without giving effect to the $2.8 million of non-performing
assets acquired in the Bank of Hartford transaction). This compares to non-
performing assets of $12.0 million, or 1.51% of total assets, at September 30,
1993 and $10.4 million, or 1.38% of total assets, at September 30, 1992.
Exclusive of the non-performing assets acquired in the Bank of Hartford
transaction, the amount of non-performing assets has declined during the nine
months ended June 30, 1994. Management believes this trend reflects the
stabilization in the real estate market and economy in Connecticut over the
past 12-18 months.

The following table sets forth information regarding Eagle's non-performing
assets at the dates indicated. At each date indicated, Eagle had no troubled
debt restructurings or accruing loans 90 days or more past due.

At June 30, 1994, non-performing assets (including the $2.8 million acquired
in the Bank of Hartford transaction) included $8.0 million in non-performing
loans (consisting of loans delinquent 90 days or more) and $3.9 million in real
estate owned and in-substance foreclosures. Approximately $30,000 in interest
income was recognized on non-performing loans during the nine-month period
ended June 30, 1994. If these loans had been performing in accordance with
their original terms, approximately $404,000 would have been received during
the nine-month period ended June 30, 1994. At September 30, 1993, non-
performing assets included $6.5 million in non-performing loans and $5.5

28
<PAGE>

million in real estate owned and in-substance foreclosures. At September 30,
1992, non-performing assets included $4.0 million in non-performing loans and
$6.4 million in real estate owned and in-substance foreclosures.

Although the level of non-performing loans has declined in the nine months
ended June 30, 1994 (before giving effect to the non-performing assets acquired
in the Bank of Hartford transaction), management expects a number of the non-
performing loans to become real estate owned. The overall level of real estate
owned will depend on the number of loans which can be resolved prior to
foreclosure and the ability of Eagle to sell properties which it owns. The
Company aggressively markets properties and has been able to decrease the level
of real estate owned during the nine months ended June 30, 1994. A more active
real estate market reduces the level of non-performing loans and real estate
owned as properties are sold. Demand for 1-4 family residential properties in
the Company's market areas has been strong in recent months.

MORTGAGE-BACKED AND INVESTMENT SECURITIES--The Company's total holdings of
mortgage-backed and investment securities increased to $173.9 million at June
30, 1994 from $88.4 million at September 30, 1993, having previously decreased
from $117.7 million at September 30, 1992. The increase from fiscal year end
1993 to June 30, 1994 reflects the purchase of investment securities funded
with matching FHLB advances, as well as the acquisition of $72.7 million of
investment securities, substantially all of which are U.S. Treasury and agency
securities, in the Bank of Hartford transaction. The decrease from fiscal year
end 1992 to 1993 reflects the use of proceeds from maturities and amortization,
as well as the sale of $12.0 million of investment securities, to fund the
Bank's strong loan origination activity in 1993.

The Company's investment portfolio at June 30, 1994 was comprised primarily
of U.S. Treasury and government agency securities and other investment
securities rated in the top grade by at least one nationally recognized rating
agency. The collateralized mortgage obligation portion of the investment
portfolio contains no derivative investment securities such as interest only
tranches, principal only tranches or strips. The mortgage-backed securities
held by Eagle are subject to interest rate and prepayment risks customarily
associated with such securities. The average weighted life of mortgage-backed
securities will differ from contractual maturities, depending upon the rate of
prepayments. Borrowers on the underlying mortgages may have the right to prepay
their loans with or without prepayment penalties. In a declining interest rate
environment, more borrowers than would otherwise be anticipated may choose to
prepay their loans in order to refinance the loans at lower rates. As a result,
the actual yield on mortgage-backed securities may be less than the expected
yields based upon prepayment experience.

DEPOSITS--Deposits increased to $982.7 million at June 30, 1994 from $706.2
million at September 30, 1993 and $677.7 million at September 30, 1992. The
growth in deposits includes the July 1993 purchase of a banking office located
in Brookfield, Connecticut with $8.2 million in deposits and the assumption of
$275.0 million of deposits of the Bank of Hartford in June 1994. Total
borrowings increased to $31.6 million at June 30, 1994 from $16.3 million at
September 30, 1993 and $7.3 million at September 30, 1992. The increase in
borrowed money for the first nine months of fiscal 1994 and in fiscal 1993
reflects the use of FHLB advances to fund a portion of loan originations and to
purchase investment securities with matching durations. Loan originations also
were funded with loan repayments and deposits. The decrease in borrowings from
fiscal year end 1991 to fiscal year end 1992 is attributable to the cash
received by Eagle in connection with the Danbury Federal and Brookfield Bank
transactions, thereby reducing Eagle's need for borrowed funds.

ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

Net interest income, the primary component of the Company's net income, is
derived from the difference or "spread" between the yield on interest-earning
assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The Company has sought to
reduce its exposure to changes in interest rates by matching more closely the
effective maturities and repricings of its interest-sensitive assets and
liabilities. At the same time, the Company's asset and liability management
strategies also must accommodate customer demands for particular types of
deposit and loan products.

While much of the Company's asset and liability management efforts involve
strategies which increase the rate sensitivity of its loans and investments,
such as originations of adjustable rate loans and purchases of adjustable rate
mortgage-backed securities and short term investments, it also uses certain
techniques to reduce the rate sensitivity of its deposits and borrowed money.
Those techniques include attracting longer term certificates of deposit when
the market will permit, emphasizing core deposits which are less sensitive to
changes in interest rates, and borrowing through long-term FHLB advances. At
June 30, 1994 and September 30, 1993, 57.8% and 58.3%, respectively, of Eagle's
net loans receivable portfolio consisted of adjustable-rate mortgage and other
loans. While Eagle has generally retained its local loan originations in
portfolio, it may from time to time sell loans to maintain an acceptable
interest rate sensitivity tolerance.

The Company measures its exposure to rate fluctuations on a quarterly basis
primarily by using a computer modeling system designed for savings institutions
such as Eagle Federal. The computer modeling system quantifies the approximate
impact that increases and decreases in interest rates would have on Eagle's net
interest income. Under the model, interest rates are assumed to move to
specified levels on an immediate or "shock" basis. The Board-approved tolerance
for decreases in net interest income is up to 20%, based upon the model's
prediction of the impact of an immediate 200 basis point increase in interest
rates. At June 30, 1994, according to the computer model and using asset and
liability repricing assumptions based on Eagle's historical experience, if
interest rates were to immediately increase by 200 basis points the negative
impact on the Company's net interest income would be within the Board-approved
tolerance level.

The Company also monitors other indicators of interest rate risk. One
commonly used measure of interest rate risk exposure is reflected in the
Company's one-year cumulative gap, which is the difference between rate
sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities maturing or repricing within
one year. An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a
specific period if it will mature or reprice within that period. The interest
rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of
interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within a specific time period and
the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within that
time period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate
sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities, and
is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities
exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets.

At June 30, 1994, the Company's one-year gap was positive 2.7%. The Company's
current asset liability management strategy is to maintain a one-year gap
within a tolerance of plus or minus 15%. However, the Company believes there
are certain shortcomings inherent in the gap analysis and, accordingly does not
rely solely on gap analysis as an accurate measure of interest rate risk.
Although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods
of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest
rates. The interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may
fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates
on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market
interest rates. Certain assets, such as adjustable-rate mortgages, have
features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and
over the life of the assets. In the event of a change in interest rates,
prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate significantly from
those assumed in

33
<PAGE>

calculating the table. The ability of many borrowers to service their debt may
decrease in the event of an interest rate increase.

The following table sets forth the amount of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities outstanding at June 30, 1994 which are expected to
mature or reprice in each of the time periods shown.

(a) Includes non-interest-bearing demand deposits.

The following assumptions were determined by management in order to prepare
the gap table set forth above. Non-amortizing investment securities are shown
in the period in which they contractually mature. The table assumes a 15%
annual prepayment rate for adjustable-rate, residential mortgage loans based on
the Bank's historical prepayment experience. A 10% rate is assumed for 30 year
fixed-rate mortgages, based on the Bank's historical prepayment rates for such
loans. All other residential and non-residential mortgages are assigned an
annual prepayment rate based on the Bank's historical experience. Estimated
decay rates on all deposit accounts are based upon industry estimates published
by the OTS.

The interest rate sensitivity of the Company's assets and liabilities could
vary substantially if different assumptions were used or if actual experience
differs from the assumptions used. For example, if all passbook deposits were
assumed to reprice in one year or less, the Company's one-year cumulative gap
to total assets would be negative 9.9%.

Under OTS regulations to be effective as of September 30, 1994, an
institution's interest rate risk exposure is measured based upon a 200 basis
point change in market interest rates. A savings

34
<PAGE>

institution whose measured interest rate risk exposure is greater than
specified levels must deduct an interest rate risk component when calculating
total capital for purposes of determining regulatory risk-based capital levels.
As of June 30, 1994, the Company believes that it would not have been required
to deduct any interest rate risk component under the OTS interest rate risk
capital regulations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Total shareholders' equity increased to $64.6 million at June 30, 1994 from
$60.4 million at September 30, 1993 and $55.0 million at September 30, 1992.
The increase in shareholders' equity from fiscal year end 1992 to 1993 reflects
total net income of $6.2 million, offset by cash dividends to shareholders
aggregating $1.9 million. Also during fiscal 1993, shareholders' equity
increased $1.2 million as a result of reduction in debt related to the
Company's employee stock ownership plan, exercise of stock options, and
purchases by shareholders under the Company's dividend reinvestment and stock
purchase plan. The increase in shareholders' equity during the first nine
months of fiscal 1994 reflects total net income of $5.6 million, offset by cash
dividends to shareholders aggregating $1.8 million. Also during the period,
shareholders' equity increased by $1.1 million as a result of a reduction in
debt related to the Company's employee stock ownership plan, exercise of stock
options, and purchases by shareholders under the Company's dividend
reinvestment and stock purchase plan. This increase was partly offset by a
$675,000 reduction in shareholders' equity at June 30, 1994 to reflect net
unrealized losses on the Company's mutual fund and marketable equity securities
portfolio.

Management periodically reviews the unrealized losses on securities to assess
whether a security has an other than temporary decline in value. At June 30,
1994, management did not believe that any of Eagle's securities had an other
than temporary decline in value that should result in a write down of
securities and a corresponding decrease in the Company's income. Management
continues to monitor whether any portions of the $675,000 net unrealized losses
on the Company's mutual fund and marketable securities portfolio (on a pre-tax
basis at June 30, 1994) should be reflected through a write-down of such
securities during future periods.

As a member of the FHLB System, the Bank is required to maintain liquid
assets at 5% of its withdrawable deposits plus short-term borrowings. At June
30, 1994, the Bank was in compliance with the OTS liquidity requirements,
having a ratio of 11.7%.

The Company's principal sources of funds include deposits, loan payments
(including interest, amortization of principal and prepayments), earnings and
amortization on investments, maturing investments and FHLB advances. Principal
uses of funds include loan originations, investments, payments of interest on
deposits, and payments to meet operating expenses. At June 30, 1994, the
Company had approximately $75.4 million in loan commitments outstanding
including $24.2 million in available home equity lines of credit and $7.5
million in amounts due borrowers for construction loan advances. It is expected
that these and future loans will be funded primarily by deposits, loan
repayments, investment maturities and amortization and borrowings. The Bank has
the aggregate capacity to borrow up to $625.6 million in advances from the FHLB
of Boston and will continue to consider this source for borrowing. FHLB
advances at June 30, 1994 were $23.7 million, compared to $15.5 million at
September 30, 1993 and $5.5 million at September 30, 1992.

It is the Company's general policy to purchase debt securities (including
mortgage-backed securities) with the intent and ability to hold to maturity for
purposes of earning interest income and meeting regulatory liquidity
requirements. Events which may be reasonably anticipated are considered when
determining the Company's intent to hold investment securities to maturity.
Such securities are classified as investment securities and are stated at cost
adjusted for amortization of

35
<PAGE>

premiums and accretion of discounts. Equity securities and mutual fund
investments are accounted for, in the aggregate, at the lower of cost or market
value with any unrealized loss being recorded as a reduction to shareholders'
equity. When a security available for sale is sold, the proceeds are used to
fund loans when deposit flows are not adequate, the rates offered on advances
are not favorable, and liquidity ratios support such sales. Management believes
such an approach to be prudent since it provides an opportunity to reinvest the
proceeds from sales of this type into higher yielding mortgage loans. The
Company also occasionally sells securities available for sale to restructure an
asset/liability mismatch. During the nine months ended June 30, 1994, Eagle
sold $2.8 million of investment securities. During fiscal 1993, investment
securities sold totaled $12.0 million, producing net gains of $52,000, while
maturing investment securities totaled $6.4 million. There were no mortgage-
backed securities sold or maturing in fiscal 1993. During fiscal 1992,
investment securities and mortgage-backed securities sold totaled $13.3
million, producing net gains of $37,000, while maturing investment securities
totaled $22.7 million.

The Bank is required by the OTS to meet minimum capital requirements, which
include tangible capital, core capital and risk-based capital requirements. The
Bank's actual capital as reported to the OTS at June 30, 1994 exceeded all
three requirements. The following chart sets forth the actual and required
minimum levels of regulatory capital for the Bank under applicable OTS
regulations as of June 30, 1994:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
ACTUAL PERCENT REQUIRED PERCENT EXCESS
------- ------- -------- ------- -------
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)

Risk-based............................. 53,930 10.59 40,726 8.00 13,204
</TABLE>

The OTS has proposed to increase the minimum required core capital ratio from
the current 3% level to a range of 4% to 5% for all but the most highly rated
financial institutions. While the OTS has not taken final action on such
proposal, it has adopted a prompt corrective action regulation that classifies
any savings institution that maintains a core capital ratio of less than 4% (3%
in the event the institution was assigned a composite 1 rating in its most
recent report of examination) as "undercapitalized." As of June 30, 1994, the
Bank had a core capital ratio of 4.66% and met the requirements for an
"adequately capitalized" institution. Prior to the Bank of Hartford
acquisition, Eagle Federal's capital ratios met the requirements for a "well
capitalized" institution. Giving effect to completion of this Offering and the
intended use of the estimated $15.5 million of net proceeds (excluding exercise
of the Underwriter's 15% over-allotment option), on a pro forma basis at June
30, 1994, the Bank would have core, tangible and risk based capital ratios of
6.03%, 6.00% and 13.49%, respectively, and would meet the requirements for a
"well capitalized" institution. See "Use of Proceeds."

RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan. SFAS No. 114
requires that loans be impaired when it is probable that a creditor will be
unable to collect all amounts (i.e., principal and interest) contractually due,
and that the impairment be measured based on the present value of expected
future cash flows discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate.
SFAS No. 114 also allows impairments to be measured based on the loan's market
price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
The effective date for SFAS No. 114 is for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1994. Eagle has not yet determined the impact of adoption of this
statement.

In May 1993, the FASB issued SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities. SFAS No. 115 generally would require that debt
and equity securities that have readily determinable fair values be carried at
fair value unless they are classified as held to maturity.

36
<PAGE>

Securities would be classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized
cost only if the reporting entity has a positive intent and ability to hold
those securities to maturity. If not classified as held to maturity, such
securities would be classified as trading securities or securities available
for sale. Unrealized holding gains or losses for securities available for sale
would be excluded from earnings and reported as a net amount in a separate
component of shareholders' equity. The effective date for the statement is for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1993. Based on the securities held by
Eagle at June 30, 1994 the Company does not believe that this statement will
have a material effect on the classification of its securities upon adoption.
The impact on Eagle's future financial position or results of operations will
be based on the future fair values of its securities.

STOCK OWNED BY MANAGEMENT

As of June 30, 1994, directors and executive officers of Eagle as a group (14
persons) beneficially owned 409,365 shares of Common Stock, or 12.4% of the
outstanding Common Stock, as determined under Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act.
This amount includes 27,458 shares allocated to the accounts of executive
officers under the Company's employee stock ownership plan, 168,300 shares
subject to options which are exercisable within 60 days, and 64,587 shares
owned by certain family members or companies affiliated with directors or
executive officers of Eagle (some of which the director or executive officer
may disclaim beneficial ownership).

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

GENERAL

The authorized capital stock of Eagle consists of 8,000,000 shares of Common
Stock, par value $.01 per share, and 2,000,000 shares of serial preferred
stock, par value $.01 per share ("Preferred Stock"). At September 29, 1994,
there were 3,131,911 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding (excluding
43,066 treasury shares) and no shares of Preferred Stock issued and
outstanding. Based on such outstanding shares, upon the completion of this
Offering (excluding 43,066 treasury shares), there will be 3,931,911 shares of
Common Stock issued and outstanding, or 4,051,911 shares if the Underwriter's
15% over allotment option is fully exercised. See "Capitalization."

The Common Stock of Eagle represents non-withdrawable capital and is not of
an insurable type or insured by the FDIC.

Under Delaware law, the holders of the Common Stock are entitled to one vote
for each share held on all matters voted upon. If Eagle issues Preferred Stock
in the future, holders of the Preferred Stock may also possess voting powers.

In the unlikely event of any liquidation or dissolution of Eagle, the holders
of its Common Stock would be entitled to receive, after payment or provision
for payment of all its debts and liabilities, all assets of Eagle available for
distribution, in cash or in kind. If Preferred Stock has been issued
subsequently, the holders thereof may have a priority over the holders of the
Common Stock in the event of liquidation or dissolution.

Holders of the Common Stock will not be entitled to preemptive rights with
respect to any shares which may be issued. The Common Stock will not be subject
to any call for redemption and, upon receipt by Eagle of the full purchase
price therefor, each share of Common Stock will be duly authorized, fully paid
and nonassessable.

The Board of Directors of Eagle is authorized to issue preferred stock in
series and to fix and state the voting powers, designations, preferences and
relative, participating, optional or other special rights of the shares of each
such series and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof.
Preferred Stock may rank prior to the Common Stock as to dividend rights,
liquidation preferences or both, and may have full or limited, multiple,
fractional or no voting rights. The holders of Preferred Stock will be entitled
to vote as a separate class or series under certain circumstances, regardless
of any other voting rights which such holders may have.

The registrar and transfer agent for the Common Stock is First National Bank
of Boston.

DIVIDEND LIMITATIONS

OTS regulations impose limitations on cash dividends and other capital
distributions by savings institutions, such as Eagle Federal. Within these
limitations, certain "safe harbor" capital

39
<PAGE>

distributions are permitted, subject to providing OTS at least 30 days' advance
notice. Savings institutions, which have capital in excess of all fully phased-
in capital requirements before and after the proposed capital distribution and
have not been notified that they are in need of more than normal supervision
("Tier 1 Institutions"), may make capital distributions during a calendar year
up to the greater of (i) 100% of net income to date during the calendar year,
plus the amount that would reduce by one-half its "surplus capital ratio" (the
excess capital over its fully phased-in capital requirements) at the beginning
of the calendar year, or (ii) 75% of its net income over the most recent four-
quarter period.

The OTS may prohibit a proposed capital distribution by any savings
institution if the OTS determines that such distribution would constitute an
unsafe or unsound practice. In addition, FDICIA prohibits an insured depository
institution from declaring any dividend or making any other capital
distribution if, following the distribution or payment, the institution would
be classified as "undercapitalized" or lower. At June 30, 1994, Eagle Federal
qualified as a Tier I institution. There can be no assurance that the OTS will
permit Eagle Federal to pay dividends to the Company in the amount sufficient
to enable Eagle to maintain its current dividend policy.

Earnings appropriated for bad debt reserves and deducted for federal income
tax purposes cannot be used by Eagle Federal to pay cash dividends to the
Company without the payment of federal income taxes by Eagle Federal at the
then current income tax rate on the amount deemed distributed, which would
include the amount of any federal income taxes attributable to the
distribution. Thus, any dividends to the Company that would reduce amounts
appropriated to Eagle Federal's bad debt reserves and deducted for federal
income tax purposes could create a significant tax liability for Eagle Federal.

Unlike Eagle Federal, the Company is not subject to regulatory restrictions
on the payment of dividends to its shareholders. However, the Company is
subject to the requirements of Delaware law, which generally limits dividends
to the amount of a corporation's net assets less paid-in capital.

DELAWARE LAW AND CERTAIN CHARTER AND BY-LAW PROVISIONS

The certificate of incorporation and by-laws of Eagle contain various
provisions which are designed to encourage potential acquirors to negotiate
directly with the Board of Directors and to discourage hostile takeover
attempts. Certain of these provisions may have the effect of discouraging a
future takeover attempt which is not approved by the Board of Directors, but
which the shareholders of Eagle might deem to be in their best interest or in
which shareholders might receive a substantial premium for their shares over
then-current market prices. These provisions include (i) a classified board of
directors, (ii) lack of authority for shareholders to call a special meeting,
(iii) authority for Board of Directors to issue up to 2,000,000 shares of
Preferred Stock without shareholder approval, (iv) certain restrictions on
acquisitions of or offers to acquire 10% or more of the outstanding voting
stock of Eagle, (v) supermajority vote requirements for amendments to certain
provisions of its certificate of incorporation and by-laws, and (vi) the
requirement that certain business combinations either be approved by at least
80% of Eagle's outstanding voting stock or be approved by a two-thirds vote of
the Board of Directors or satisfy certain minimum price requirements.

OTHER RESTRICTIONS ON THE ACQUISITION OF STOCK

For purposes of the restrictions described below, Eagle Federal would be
defined as a "savings association" and Eagle as a "savings and loan holding
company."

Federal law provides that no company, "directly or indirectly or acting in
concert with one or more persons, or through one or more subsidiaries, or
through one or more transactions," may

40
<PAGE>

acquire "control" of a savings association or holding company thereof at any
time without the prior approval of the OTS. In addition, any company that
acquires such control becomes a "savings and loan holding company" subject to
registration, examination and regulation as a savings and loan holding company.
"Control" in this context means ownership of, control of, or holding proxies
representing more than 25% of the voting shares of a savings association or
holding company thereof or the power to control in any manner the election of a
majority of the directors of such savings association or holding company.

Federal law also provides that no "person," acting directly or indirectly or
through or in concert with one or more persons, may acquire "control" of a
savings association or holding company thereof, unless at least 60 days' prior
written notice has been given to the OTS and the OTS has not objected to the
proposed acquisition. "Control" is defined for this purpose as the power,
directly or indirectly, to direct the management or policies of a savings
association or holding company or to vote more than 25% of any class of voting
securities of a savings association or holding company.

Federal regulations require that, prior to obtaining control of an insured
institution (including a holding company thereof), a person, other than a
company, must give 60 days' notice to the OTS and have received no OTS
objection to such acquisition of control; a company must apply for and receive
OTS approval of the acquisition. Control, as defined under federal law,
involves a 25% voting stock test, control in any manner of the election of a
majority of the institution's directors, or a determination by the OTS that the
acquirer has the power to direct, or directly or indirectly to exercise a
controlling influence over, the management or policies of the institution.
Acquisition of more than 10% of an institution's voting stock, if the acquirer
also is subject to any one of either "control factors," constitutes a
rebuttable determination of control under the regulations. The determination of
control may be rebutted by submission to the OTS, prior to the acquisition of
stock or the occurrence of any other circumstances giving rise to such
determination, of a statement setting forth facts and circumstances which would
support a finding that no control relationship will exist and containing
certain undertakings. The regulations provide that persons or companies which
acquire beneficial ownership exceeding 10% or more of any class of an insured
institution's stock after the effective date of the regulations must file with
the OTS a certification that the holder is not in control of such institution,
is not subject to a rebuttable determination of control and will not take
action which would result in a determination or rebuttable determination of
control without prior notice to or approval of the OTS, as applicable.

Under Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law ("Delaware Law"), a
resident domestic corporation may not engage in a business combination with an
interested stockholder for a period of three years after the date such person
became an interested stockholder, unless (i) prior to such date the Board of
Directors approved either the business combination or the transaction which
resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, (ii) upon
consummation of the transaction which resulted in such person becoming an
interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the
corporation's voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced
(excluding for determining the number of shares outstanding shares owned by (a)
persons who are directors and officers and (b) employee stock plans, in certain
instances), or (iii) on or subsequent to such date the business combination is
approved by the Board of Directors and authorized by the affirmative vote of at
least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the
interested stockholder. Section 203 of the Delaware Law defines the term
"business combination" to encompass a wide variety of transactions with or
caused by an interested stockholder in which the interested stockholder
receives or could receive a benefit on other than a pro rata basis with other
stockholders, including certain mergers, consolidations, asset sales, transfers
and other transactions resulting in financial benefit to the interested
stockholder. "Interested stockholder" means a person who owns (or within three
years prior, did own) 15% or more of the corporation's outstanding stock, and
the affiliates and associates of such person.

LIMITATION ON LIABILITY

As permitted under Delaware Law, the certificate of incorporation of Eagle
provides that no director of Eagle will be liable for monetary damages for
breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except (i) for any breach of the
director's duty of loyalty to Eagle or its shareholders, (ii) for acts or
omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (iii) for approval of certain unlawful dividends or
stock purchases or redemptions and (iv) for any transaction from which the
director derived an improper personal benefit. In appropriate circumstances,
equitable remedies such as an injunction or other forms of non-monetary relief
would remain available under Delaware Law.

The Underwriter, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc., has agreed, subject to the
terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, to purchase from Eagle all

liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act, or to
contribute to payments the Underwriter may be required to make in respect
thereof.

after the date of this Prospectus, Eagle will not, without the Underwriter's
prior written consent, sell, offer to sell, grant any option for the sale of,

convertible into, or warrants to purchase, any shares of Common Stock, except
pursuant to Eagle's existing stock option plans or its dividend reinvestment
and stock purchase plan.

transactions with, or perform services for, Eagle and its subsidiaries in the

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1993, 1992 AND 1991

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

Eagle Financial Corp. (the "Company") is the savings bank holding company for
Eagle Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"), a federally-chartered savings bank.
Prior to January 1, 1993, the Company had two bank subsidiaries, Bristol
Federal Savings Bank and First Federal Savings and Loan Association of
Torrington. Effective January 1, 1993, the two bank subsidiaries were combined
into one subsidiary, Eagle Federal Savings Bank. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated.

BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. In preparing the financial statements,
management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet
and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ
significantly from those estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in
the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and
the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in
satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of the allowance
for loan losses and the valuation of foreclosed and in-substance repossessed
real estate, management obtains independent appraisals for significant
properties.

While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans and
foreclosed real estate, future additions to the allowance or write-downs may be
necessary based on changes in economic conditions, particularly in Connecticut.
In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their
examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for loan losses
and value of foreclosed real estate. Such agencies may require the Bank to
recognize additions to the allowance or write-downs based on their judgment of
information available to them at the time of their examination.

INVESTMENT AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES

The Bank determines its accounting for debt securities based upon its
projected liquidity needs. Securities that are to be sold before maturity are
classified as available for sale and are accounted for at the lower of cost or
market. Securities that will be held to maturity other than marketable equity
securities are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and
accretion of discounts. Equity securities, including mutual fund investments,
are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or market value (see Note 3). A
valuation allowance is established and charged to shareholders' equity when the
aggregate market value of the equity securities portfolio is less than the book
value of the portfolio. Unrealized losses on equity securities that are
determined to be other than temporary are charged to operations. Gains or
losses on the sale of investment securities are computed by the specific
identification method.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Interest on loans is accrued and credited to operations based upon the
principal amount outstanding. The accrual of interest income generally is
discontinued when a loan becomes 90 days

F-9
<PAGE>

EAGLE FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
past due as to principal or interest. Management may elect to continue the
accrual of interest when the estimated fair value of collateral is sufficient
to cover the principal balance and accrued interest.

First mortgage loans held for sale in the secondary market are carried at the
lower of aggregate cost or market value. Management estimates the market value
of its portfolio held for sale based on outstanding investor commitments or
current investor yield requirements, whichever is more readily apparent.

Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred
and the net amount amortized as an adjustment to the related loan's yield. The
Company is generally amortizing these amounts over the contractual life of the
related loans.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by
management to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio. Management's
determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on an evaluation of the
portfolio, past loan loss experience, current economic conditions, volume,
growth and composition of the loan portfolio, and other relevant factors. The
allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses charged against income.

PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT

Premises and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation
computed generally by the straight-line method at rates based on estimated
useful lives. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed on a straight-
line basis over the terms of related leases.

REAL ESTATE ACQUIRED IN SETTLEMENT OF LOANS AND IN-SUBSTANCE REPOSSESSED REAL
ESTATE

Real estate acquired in settlement of loans and in-substance repossessed real
estate is composed of properties acquired through foreclosure proceedings,
acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or loans for which foreclosure
proceedings are imminent. These properties are carried at the lower of cost or
fair value, less selling costs. At the time these properties are foreclosed or
are designated in-substance repossessed real estate, they are recorded at the
lower of cost or fair value through a direct charge against the allowance for
loan losses. Losses subsequent to foreclosure or in-substance repossession
classification are recorded as a provision (charge) against income.

INCOME TAXES

The Company files consolidated state and Federal income tax returns. Items of
income and expenses recognized in different time periods for financial
reporting purposes and for purposes of computing income taxes currently payable
give rise to deferred income taxes which are reflected in the consolidated
financial statements.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Effective December 31, 1992, the Company is required to provide supplemental
financial statement disclosures on the estimated fair value of its financial
instruments in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments" ("SFAS No. 107").
Financial instruments as defined in SFAS No. 107 include cash and cash
equivalents, investments, mortgage-backed securities, loans, deposits,
borrowings and certain off-balance-sheet items. Other assets that are not
considered financial instruments under SFAS No. 107 and are excluded from fair
value disclosures include real estate owned and premises and equipment.

F-10
<PAGE>

EAGLE FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on market
information, where available, or other more subjective information if a market
for the financial instrument does not exist. These estimates incorporate
assumptions and other matters of judgment and may not reflect the true
financial impact that could result from selling the entire portfolio of a
financial instrument on one date, including any income tax consequences.

CASH FLOWS

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and amounts due from depository
institutions and interest-bearing deposits.

PER SHARE DATA

Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-
average common shares outstanding during the year, increased by the number of
shares issuable on the exercise of stock options, if dilutive, based on the
treasury stock method. The dilutive effect of stock options was not material
for 1993, 1992 and 1991.

All per share data and the number of outstanding common shares for all
periods prior to September 30, 1993 have been adjusted retroactively to give
effect to a 10% stock dividend paid in September 1993.

RECLASSIFICATION

Certain 1992 and 1991 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1993
presentation for comparative purposes. Such reclassifications had no effect on
net income.

2. ACQUISITIONS

On March 13, 1992, Bristol Federal purchased certain assets and assumed all
insured deposits of Danbury Federal Savings and Loan Association ("Danbury"),
Danbury, Connecticut from the Resolution Trust Corporation ("RTC").

On May 8, 1992, Bristol Federal acquired certain assets and assumed all
insured deposits of Brookfield Bank ("Brookfield"), Brookfield, Connecticut,
from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). The acquisitions have
been accounted for by the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the
assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded based on estimated fair
values at the dates of acquisition. The estimated fair values of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed at the dates of acquisition are summarized as
follows:

In accordance with the Purchase and Assumption Agreement between the RTC and
Bristol Federal, Bristol Federal had the option, until October 7, 1993, to "put
back" or return to the RTC for cash, loans acquired in the Danbury transaction
if certain documentation deficiencies exist. As of September 30, 1993, $4
million of loans had been put back to the RTC.

The operating results of these acquisitions are included in the Company's

======== ====== ======== ========
</TABLE>

In developing the estimates of fair value shown above, the Bank utilized the
Office of Thrift Supervision Interest Rate Risk Report including estimates of
net portfolio value. As part of this analysis, the Bank's loan portfolio was
segregated by type of loan, performing status and interest method (fixed or
variable). In general, fair value was estimated by discounting contractual cash
flows adjusted for prepayment estimates using discount rates developed in the
secondary market.

Assumptions have been made in developing these fair values based upon
historical experience and market conditions. Because there is no immediate
market for many of the above loans, there is no basis for determining whether
the fair value presented above would be indicative of the value negotiated in
an actual sale.

5. LOANS TO RELATED PARTIES

The Bank has granted loans to officers and directors of the Bank and to their
associates. Related party loans are made on substantially the same terms as
those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated
persons, except that prior to fiscal year 1991 officers and directors were
granted a 1% discount on the interest rate for mortgage and property
improvement loans. Management believes that these loans do not involve more
than normal risk of collectibility.

The aggregate dollar amount of loans to officers and directors (exclusive of
loans to any such persons which in the aggregate did not exceed $60,000 during
the year) amounted to $2,936,000 and $2,903,000 at September 30, 1993 and 1992,
respectively. During 1993, $556,000 of new loans were made and repayments
totaled $523,000. All loans to officers and directors were current and
performing at September 30, 1993.

6. REAL ESTATE ACQUIRED IN SETTLEMENT OF LOANS AND IN-SUBSTANCE REPOSSESSED

Real estate acquired in settlement of loans and in-substance repossessed real
estate is stated net of a related allowance. Changes in the allowance were as

operating lease arrangements. Certain of the lease arrangements provide for
renewal options. Rental expense for leased branches included in operating
expenses was $352,000, $281,000 and $112,000 for 1993, 1992 and 1991,
respectively.

In 1992, Bristol Federal entered into two lease agreements for office space
and a branch site with a director-related corporation. The leases were for an
initial term of five years and seven years, respectively, and have renewal
options which extend for an additional five years. Total lease expense for the
office space and branch site was $65,040 for 1993 and $19,800 for 1992.

The future minimum rental commitments for the leased branches as of September
30, 1993 were as follows:

The fair value of short- and long-term borrowings, estimated using rates
currently available for debt of similar terms and remaining maturities, was $16
million at September 30, 1993. In accordance with an agreement with the Federal
Home Loan Bank of Boston ("FHLB"), the Bank is required to maintain qualified
collateral, as defined in the FHLB Statement of Credit Policy, free and clear
of

F-18

EAGLE FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
liens, pledges and encumbrances, as collateral for the advances. The FHLB
Statement of Credit Policy grants members the ability to borrow up to the value
of the member's qualified collateral that has not been pledged to outside
sources. Members whose total indebtedness, including borrowings from outside
sources, exceeds 30% of assets are required to list and segregate collateral in
a sufficient amount to cover the amount of advances outstanding. The Bank has a
capacity to borrow up to $460 million in advances from FHLB as of September 30,
1993. The Bank has a preapproved line up to 2% of total assets.

Underlying collateral on customer repurchase agreements was Federal Home Loan
Bank overnight deposits of $1,702,000 at September 30, 1992.

In connection with its purchase of the Company's common stock during 1987,
the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "Plan") borrowed $1,163,000 under a term
note maturing in 1997 with interest due quarterly at 82.5% of the lender's
floating prime rate. In 1991, the Plan borrowed $759,000 to purchase additional
shares of the Company's common stock under a term note maturing in 1997 with
interest due quarterly at the lender's floating prime rate plus .25%. Principal
payments ranging from $129,000 to $247,000 are due annually on March 31 until
1997 on the outstanding borrowings. A total of 65,967 unallocated shares in the
Plan Trust at September 30, 1993 have been pledged as collateral in conjunction
with the Plan borrowings. The Company reflects the Plan debt as borrowed money
and as a reduction of shareholders' equity.

11. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

Retained earnings include $8.9 million at September 30, 1993 which has been
set aside in accordance with existing provisions of the Internal Revenue Code
to absorb losses on loans. Such total represents amounts claimed as deductions
from taxable income and, if used for any purpose other than to absorb losses on
loans, a Federal income tax liability could be incurred. In addition, the Tax
Reform Act of 1986 requires the Company to recognize a portion of this reserve
as income for income tax reporting purposes if the Company's qualifying assets
were to become less than 60% of total assets. It is not anticipated that the
Company will incur a Federal income tax liability relating to such reserve.

13. RESTRICTION ON SUBSIDIARY DIVIDENDS

The Company's ability to pay dividends to shareholders is substantially
dependent on funds received from the Bank. The Office of Thrift Supervision
(the "OTS") regulations impose limitations on cash dividends and other capital
distributions by savings institutions, such as the Bank. Within these
limitations, certain "safe harbor" capital distributions are permitted, subject
to providing OTS at least 30 days' advance notice. The OTS regulations permit
the OTS to prohibit capital distributions in certain circumstances.

14. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Bank maintains a noncontributory trusteed defined benefit pension plan
through the Financial Institutions Retirement Fund (the "Fund") covering all
eligible employees. The plan is part of a multi-employer plan in which details
as to the Bank's relative positions are not readily determinable. Therefore,
information relating to the value of vested and nonvested accumulated plan
benefits and assumed rates of return used in determining such values is not
disclosed. Employer

F-21
<PAGE>

EAGLE FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
contributions to the Fund in 1993, 1992 and 1991 were $172,000, $206,000 and
$176,000, respectively, and these amounts are expensed to operations in the
year contributed.

The Company sponsors an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "Plan") covering
substantially all full-time employees. The Plan, which is a tax qualified
employee benefit plan, was adopted by the Board of Directors to provide
retirement benefits for employees. Contributions are determined based upon the
principal and interest amounts due related to the Plan debt. Amounts for
principal and interest are expensed as accrued.

A summary of the components of Plan contribution expense by the Company for
1993, 1992 and 1991 is as follows:

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk
in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers.
These instruments expose the Company to credit risk in excess of the amount
recognized on the balance sheet.

The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the
other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is
represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses
the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as
it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. Total credit exposure at September
30, 1993 related to these items is summarized below:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
CONTRACT

<S> <C>
Loan commitments:
Approved loan commitments................................... $13,487
Unadvanced portion of construction loans.................... 3,818
Unadvanced portion of home equity lines of credit........... 19,507
</TABLE>

Loan commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as
long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.
Loan commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination
clauses and may require payment of a fee. The Company evaluates each customer's
creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if
deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit is based on
management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held is
primarily residential property. Interest rates on approved loan commitments and
home equity lines of credit are a combination of fixed and variable. Interest
rates on unadvanced portions of construction loans are fixed rates which
generally mature within eighteen months.

16. SIGNIFICANT GROUP CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

The Company primarily grants residential and consumer loans to customers
located within its primary market area in the State of Connecticut. The
majority of the Company's loan portfolio is comprised of residential mortgages.
At September 30, 1993, residential loans, including residential construction
loans, totaled $641 million, excluding off-balance-sheet items. All such loans
are collateralized by real estate, of which approximately 95% is located in
Connecticut.

17. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes." This SFAS relates to the method of accounting for deferred
income taxes. Implementation of SFAS No. 109 was required for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1992. This SFAS requires companies to take into
account changes in tax rates when valuing the deferred income tax amounts
recorded on the balance sheet. SFAS No. 109 also requires that deferred taxes
be provided for all temporary differences between financial statement and tax
basis in addition to the timing differences in the recognition of income for
financial statement and tax purposes which were covered by prior accounting
rules. Management intends to adopt SFAS No. 109 prospectively and the
cumulative effect of the change in accounting for income taxes will result in a
tax benefit of approximately $1.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1994.

The FASB also issued SFAS No. 106, "Accounting for Postretirement Benefits
Other Than Pensions." Under this SFAS, the cost of postretirement benefits
other than pensions must be recognized on an accrual basis as employees perform
services to earn the benefits, similar to current standards on accounting for
pensions. The Company currently provides certain health care benefits for
substantially all retired employees. These benefits are primarily provided
through insurance companies whose premiums are based on the benefits paid
during the year. The Company currently recognizes the cost of providing these
benefits by expensing the annual premiums, which were approximately $44,000 in
1993, $29,000 in 1992 and $17,000 in 1991. The Company will prospectively adopt
SFAS No. 106 in fiscal 1994. Adoption will result in the recording of a
onetime, cumulative catch-up adjustment that, net of the related tax benefit,
will reduce net income in the first quarter of 1994 by approximately $1.3
million. It is also estimated that the Company's postretirement cost charged to
expense in fiscal 1994 will be approximately $270,000 on a pre-tax basis as a
result of adopting this SFAS.

In May 1993, the FASB issued SFAS No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities". The SFAS generally would require that debt and
equity securities that have readily determinable fair values be carried at fair
value unless they are classified as held to maturity. Securities would be
classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized cost only if the
reporting entity has a positive intent and ability to hold those securities to
maturity. If not classified as held to maturity, such securities would be
classified as trading securities or securities available for sale. Unrealized
holding gains or losses for securities available for sale would be excluded
from earnings and reported as a net amount in a separate component of
shareholders' equity. The effective date for the statement is for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1993. Based on the securities held by the Company
as of September 30, 1993, the Company does not believe that this statement will
have a material effect on the classification of its securities. The impact on
the Company's future financial position or results of operations will be based
on the future fair values of its securities.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements include all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All adjustments
were of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the nine-month
period ended June 30, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results which
may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

2. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Eagle Financial
Corp. ("Eagle Financial") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Eagle Federal
Savings Bank ("Eagle Federal"), a federally-chartered savings bank.

3. ACQUISITION

The Company acquired assets of $267 million and liabilities of The Bank of
Hartford, Inc. from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in an assisted
transaction on June 10, 1994. The acquisition accounted for as a purchase
transaction, increased the Company's assets to approximately $1.1 billion.

4. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February, 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 109 "Accounting for
Income Taxes." This SFAS requires a change from the deferred method of
accounting for income taxes to the asset and liability method of accounting for
income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets
and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that
includes the enactment date.

The Company adopted SFAS No. 109 as of October 1, 1993. The cumulative effect
of this change in accounting for income taxes of $1,273,000 as of October 1,
1993 is reported as a cumulative effect of an accounting change in the
statement of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 1994. Prior periods'
financial statements have not been restated to apply the provisions of SFAS No.
109.

At June 30, 1994, the Company has a net deferred tax asset of approximately
$2.9 million. In order to fully realize the net deferred tax asset, the Company
will need to either generate tax losses to carryback to recover taxes
previously paid or generate future taxable income. Based upon the Company's
historical and current pre-tax earnings, management believes it is more likely
than not that the Company will realize the net deferred tax asset. However,
there can be no specific assurance that the Company will generate any specific
level of continuing earnings.

The Company had taxable income, pre-tax book income and taxes paid for the
periods presented as follows:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)--(CONTINUED)

The primary differences between taxable income and pre-tax book income
relates to the provisions for loan losses and charge-offs. The Company would
expect these differences to continue in the future.

For the nine months ended June 30, 1994, income tax expense attributable to
income from continuing operations consists of:

EAGLE FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)--(CONCLUDED)
Eagle Federal has not provided deferred income taxes for Eagle Federal's tax
return reserve for bad debts that arose in tax years beginning before December
31, 1987 because it is not expected that this difference will reverse in the
foreseeable future. The cumulative net amount of income tax temporary
difference related to the reserve for bad debts for which deferred taxes have
not been provided was approximately $8.9 million at June 30, 1994. If Eagle
Federal does not meet the income tax requirements necessary to permit it to
claim a percentage of taxable income loan loss deduction in the future, the
Bank under certain circumstances could incur a tax liability for the previously
deducted tax return loan loss in the year in which such requirements are not
met. This potential liability for which no deferred income taxes have been
provided was approximately $3.7 million as of June 30, 1994.

On October 1, 1993, the Company also adopted SFAS No. 106, "Accounting for
Post-retirement Benefits Other Than Pensions" ("SFAS 106"). SFAS 106 requires
that the expected cost of post-retirement benefits be charged to expense during
the period that the eligible employees render services. This accumulated post-
retirement benefit obligation ("APBO") existing at time of adoption was
approximately $2,194,000 before income taxes of $891,000. The $1,303,000
reduction in income net of taxes was recognized as a cumulative effect of a
change in accounting method in the statement of operations for the nine months
ended June 30, 1994.

The Company provides health benefits for future retirees within certain
limits and for current retirees. The Company does not have any assets
specifically segregated for the payment of health benefits and funds the
benefits through cash flows from operations.

The following is a summary of the obligation to provide health benefits at
October 1, 1993:

<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation related to active
employees......................................................... $1,594,000
Accumulated post-retirement benefit related to retirees............ 600,000
----------
Total accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation and amount
recognized in statement of condition.......................... $2,194,000
==========
Net periodic post-retirement benefit cost for the year ended Sep-
tember 30, 1994 will be approximately:
Service cost..................................................... $ 89,000
Interest in APBO................................................. 135,000
Amortization of APBO (a)......................................... (28,000)
----------
Total cost..................................................... $ 196,000
==========
</TABLE>
- --------
(a) Amortization to reflect changes in Eagle Financial post-retirement benefits
plan made subsequent to October 1, 1993.

The APBO was calculated using a discount rate of 7%. The APBO for the post-
retirement medical benefits plan was determined using a health care cost trend
assumption starting at 11% on October 1, 1993 and decreasing the health care
cost trend assumption by 1% per year until reaching 5% and remaining at 5%
thereafter. The APBO for the post-retirement medical benefits plan would
increase by 8.3% on an annual basis and the combined service cost and interest
cost would increase by 5.7% on an annual basis if the health care cost trend
assumption were increased by 1% each year.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors
Eagle Federal Savings Bank:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets acquired and liabilities
assumed by Eagle Federal Savings Bank, a federally-chartered savings bank and
wholly-owned subsidiary of Eagle Financial Corporation, at June 10, 1994,
related to the acquisition of certain assets and assumption of certain
liabilities of The Bank of Hartford, Inc. by Eagle Federal Savings Bank. This
statement is the responsibility of the management of Eagle Federal Savings
Bank. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the statement of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance that the statement of assets acquired and liabilities
assumed is free of material misstatement. The audit of the statement of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed included examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the statement. The audit of the
statement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed also included assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall presentation of such statement. We believe that
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the statement referred to above presents fairly, in all
material respects, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by Eagle Federal
Savings Bank related to the aforementioned acquisition at June 10, 1994, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

EAGLE FEDERAL SAVINGS BANK

NOTES TO STATEMENTS OF ASSETS ACQUIRED
AND LIABILITIES ASSUMED

(1) ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

On June 10, 1994, Eagle Federal Savings Bank, a federally-chartered savings
bank ("Eagle Federal" or the "Bank") and wholly-owned subsidiary of Eagle
Financial Corporation (the "Corporation"), acquired certain assets and assumed
all of the deposits and certain other liabilities of The Bank of Hartford,
Inc., Hartford, Connecticut ("The Bank of Hartford") from the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") in an assisted transaction. The Bank and the
Corporation have a fiscal year-end of September 30.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The statement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and represents only
those assets and liabilities of Eagle Federal Savings Bank relating to The Bank
of Hartford acquisition. The financial information of The Bank of Hartford was
developed based primarily upon the records of The Bank of Hartford and
information supplied by the FDIC. Such financial information is subject to
change upon resolution of certain settlement issues and completion of the
customary FDIC settlement process which are to be completed within 270 days
after June 10, 1994 as stipulated by the Purchase and Assumption Agreement.

The transaction has been accounted for as a purchase, whereby the purchase
price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based
on their respective fair values as of the date of acquisition. Such allocation
has been based on preliminary estimates which may be revised at a later date
based upon more complete information.

(b) Loans

Loans are stated at estimated fair value upon acquisition which is comprised
of the principal amount outstanding plus a net premium. Interest income on
loans is accrued based upon the principal amount outstanding. Interest income
is not accrued on loans that are 90 days or more past due. The net premium on
loans purchased is recognized in interest income over the lives of the loans
using a method that approximates a level-yield method.

The allowance for loan losses is established at a level believed adequate by
management to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio. Management's
determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is based upon an
evaluation of the portfolio, past loan loss experience, current economic
conditions, composition of the loan portfolio and other relevant factors.

While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans,
future additions to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary based on
changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an
integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank's
allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize
additions to the allowance based on their judgment of information available to
them at the time.

(d) Investment Securities and Mortgage-Backed Securities

Investment securities and mortgage-backed securities are carried at cost
(i.e., fair value on the date of acquisition). Premiums are amortized and
discounts are accreted to income over the estimated life of the respective
securities using methods which approximate the level-yield method.

AND LIABILITIES ASSUMED--(CONTINUED)

(e) Premises and Equipment

Under the Purchase and Assumption Agreement with the FDIC, Eagle Federal has
an exclusive option, for a period of 60 days after June 10, 1994 (the "Bank
Closing"), to purchase any or all of The Bank of Hartford's owned bank premises
at the price (the "AVR Price") set forth in the FDIC's asset valuation review
(the "AVR") of The Bank of Hartford and to assume the leases for The Bank of
Hartford's leased bank premises at prices in effect under existing lease
agreements. Eagle Federal presently anticipates that it will exercise its
option to purchase or lease all of The Bank of Hartford banking offices
(excluding the operations center and one branch location). The AVR Price of The
Bank of Hartford owned bank premises is $65,188. If Eagle Federal elects to
purchase and lease The Bank of Hartford premises, Eagle Federal will be
required to purchase the furniture, fixtures and equipment located on such
premises at a price determined by appraisals obtained by the FDIC. Such
appraisals are currently in process. Since Eagle Federal did not purchase The
Bank of Hartford premises and equipment on June 10, 1994, these assets are not
reflected in the accompanying statement of assets acquired and liabilities
assumed.

(f) Intangible Assets

The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net
assets acquired has been allocated to mortgage servicing rights, core deposits
and goodwill.

The mortgage servicing rights is being amortized over the life of the related
loans using a method that approximates the level-yield method. The core deposit
intangible is being amortized on an accelerated method over a period of ten
years. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of
fifteen years.

(3) CASH AND AMOUNTS DUE FROM BANKS

Eagle Federal is subject to requirements of the Federal Reserve to maintain
certain average cash reserve balances related to certain deposits accounts
assumed. At June 10, 1994, these reserves were appropriately maintained.

(4) INVESTMENTS AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES

The maturity schedule of debt securities, excluding collateralized mortgage
obligations, at June 10, 1994 is shown below. Expected maturities will differ
from contractual maturities because borrowers have the right to call or prepay
obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Nonperforming loans, which consist of loans 90 days or more past due, are
approximately $2.5 million on June 10, 1994.

(6) DUE FROM THE FDIC

The amount due from the FDIC represents the excess of liabilities assumed
over assets acquired in the acquisition, and the estimated amount due from the
FDIC to adjust the investment and mortgage-backed securities to market value at
June 10, 1994 and certain settlement items currently being discussed with the
FDIC, less $8.7 million paid by Eagle Federal to the FDIC to purchase the
assets and assume the liabilities.

On June 13, 1994, Eagle Federal received $72.3 million from the FDIC as an
initial payment.

A portion of the amount shown above for goodwill will be allocated as the
purchase price adjustment to the fair value of bank premises to be acquired
from the FDIC as part of the acquisition which is over and above the AVR Price
(see Note 1(e)).

(8) DEPOSITS

Deposits at June 10, 1994 consist of the following:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
(in thousands)
<S> <C>
Regular savings............................................... $ 45,770
NOW accounts.................................................. 15,364
Demand deposits............................................... 6,181
Money market deposit accounts................................. 16,806
Certificates of deposit....................................... 188,631
--------
Total deposits............................................ $272,752
========
</TABLE>

The aggregate amount of time deposits of $100,000 or more totaled $9,231,166
at June 10, 1994.

The weighted average interest rates for deposits at June 10, 1994 was 3.84%.
The Purchase and Assumption Agreement stipulates that Eagle Federal is to pay
interest on assumed liabilities in accordance with the terms of the respective
deposit agreements for a period of 14 days after assumption. After the 14 day
period, the Bank reduced rates on certain deposit accounts. It is expected that
deposit run-off will be funded by excess liquidity; primarily from the net
amount due from the FDIC.

(9) COMMITMENTS AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

At June 10, 1994, there were no mortgage commitments outstanding. Unused
portions of home equity credit lines approximate $5,421,000 on June 10, 1994.

The Loans acquired are primarily secured by real estate located in
Connecticut.

(10) LITIGATION AND OTHER MATTERS

The FDIC has agreed to indemnify Eagle Federal against certain costs,
liabilities and expenses, including legal fees, incurred in connection with
certain third party claims that may be brought against Eagle Federal based on
liabilities of The Bank of Hartford that were not assumed by Eagle

Federal under the Purchase and Assumption Agreement. Eagle Federal has agreed
to indemnify the FDIC against certain costs, liabilities and expenses,
including legal fees, incurred in connection with certain third party claims
that may be brought against the FDIC based on liabilities of The Bank of
Hartford that were assumed by Eagle Federal under the Purchase and Assumption
Agreement.

(11) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 114, Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan. This statement requires that loans be
impaired when it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all
amounts (i.e., principal and interest) contractually due, and that the
impairment be measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows
discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate. The statement also
allows impairments to be measured based on the loan's market price or the fair
value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. The effective date
for the statement is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1994. The
Bank has not yet determined the timing or impact of adoption of this statement.

In May 1993, the FASB issued SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities. The Statement generally would require that debt
and equity securities that have readily determinable fair values be carried at
fair value unless they are classified as held to maturity. Securities would be
classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized cost only if the
reporting entity has a positive intent and ability to hold those securities to
maturity. If not classified as held to maturity, such securities would be
classified as trading securities or securities available for sale. Unrealized
holding gains or losses for securities available for sale would be excluded
from earnings and reported as a net amount in a separate component of
shareholders' equity. The effective date for the statement is for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1993. Based on the securities held by the Bank as
of June 10, 1994 related to the acquired securities of The Bank of Hartford,
the Bank does not believe that this statement will have a material effect on
the classification of its securities upon adoption. The impact on the Bank's
future financial position or results of operations will be based on the future
fair values of its securities.
