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.


                                                           N E W S R E L E A S E

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
- ---------------------

                   EAGLE COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF MIDCONN BANK

Bristol, CT/ June 2, 1997 -- Eagle  Financial Corp.  (NASDAQ:EGFC),  the holding
company for Eagle Bank,  announced  that it has  completed  its  acquisition  of
MidConn  Bank and has merged  MidConn  into Eagle Bank  effective  May 31, 1997.
MidConn Bank,  headquartered  in  Kensington,  Connecticut,  has $363 million of
assets and 10 branch offices located primarily in Hartford county.

The transaction  increases the number of Eagle Bank branch offices to 30 and its
asset size to  approximately  $1.9  billion,  ranking  Eagle as the 4th  largest
Connecticut based financial institution.

Pursuant to the merger,  MidConn  common stock has been  converted into .86 of a
share of Eagle Financial  common stock thereby  increasing  Eagle's total common
shares outstanding by approximately 1.7 million.

Robert J. Britton,  Eagle  Financial's  President and Chief  Executive  Officer,
said,  "The  acquisition of MidConn  further  solidifies  Eagle's already strong
position in the greater Hartford market.  Eagle and MidConn  customers will both
realize the  significant  advantages  of an  expanded  network of branch and ATM
locations.  Eagle's shareholders will benefit from an in-market  acquisition and
the economies of scale which these transactions generate."

Eagle Bank  offers a full array of  innovative  products  and  services  for the
retail and commercial  market  including  24-hour  telephone  banking,  loans by
phone, cash management services,  debit cards,  alternative  investment products
and a full line of deposit and loan products.
