ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
On May 31, 1997, Eagle Financial Corp. (Eagle) completed its
acquisition of MidConn Bank pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as
of January 27, 1997 (the "Merger Agreement"). At March 31, 1997, MidConn Bank
had total assets of approximately $362 million, total deposits of approximately
$312 million and ten branch offices located in central Connecticut.
In accordance with the Merger Agreement, the merger was effected on a
stock-for-stock basis in a tax-free exchange resulting in MidConn Bank being
merged into Eagle's wholly-owned subsidiary, Eagle Bank. Each outstanding share
of MidConn Bank common stock was converted into .86 of a share of Eagle common
stock, plus cash in lieu of fractional shares, at a value of approximately $24
per share, or $46.7 million in aggregate, as of the date of the merger. The
acquisition will be accounted for under the pooling of interests method of
accounting.

MIDCONN BANK
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited historical interim financial statements of MidConn Bank included
herein, as of and for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 1997 and
1996 contain all adjustments which, in the opinion of MidConn Bank management,
are necessary to present a fair statement of the historical financial condition,
results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods reported. Operating
results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those expected
for the full year.
These interim financial statements have been prepared under the presumption that
readers of the historical interim financial information have either read or have
access to MidConn Bank's audited financial statements for the year ended
September 30, 1996. Accordingly, footnote disclosures which would substantially
duplicate the disclosures contained in those audited financial statements have
been omitted from these historical interim financial statements. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such instruction, rules and regulation.
Although MidConn Bank believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these unaudited
historical interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements and the notes thereto of MidConn Bank for the year ended
September 30, 1996.
