NOTE E - REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

       During  1999,  the  Bank  began  offering  its  corporate   customers  an
       investment product fashioned in the form of a repurchase agreement. Under
       the terms of the agreement, deposits in designated demand accounts of the
       customer  are put  into an  investment  vehicle  which  is used  daily to
       purchase  an  interest  in  designated   U.S.   Government  or  Agencies'
       securities owned by the Bank. The Bank in turn agrees to repurchase these
       investments  on a daily  basis and pay the  customer  the daily  interest
       earned on them. At June 30, 1999, the amount of repurchase agreements was
       $6,030,670.

June 30, 1999 from $412.4  million at December  31, 1998.  The total  balance in
federal funds sold decreased $8.8 million to $16.6 million at June 30, 1999 from
$25.4 million at December 31, 1998.  This decrease was used to take advantage of
market  opportunities by funding investment  securities  classified as available
for sale which  reached  $130.9  million at June 30,  1999 an  increase of $13.4
million from December 31, 1998 of $117.5 million. Net loans receivable increased
$11.0 million to $249.3 million at June 30, 1999 from $238.3 million at December
31, 1998.  The increase in loans was primarily in the consumer  loan  portfolio,
which rose $6.6 million to $59.0 million at June 30, 1999, from $52.4 million at
December 31, 1998. This portfolio's  increase was due to our competitive  market
rates.

     Interest-bearing  deposits  rose $9.6  million to reach  $307.7 million  at
June 30, 1999 from $298.1  million at December  31, 1998.  Competitive  offering
rates attributed to this growth. Non-interest bearing deposits decreased by $2.2
million to $56.0  million at June 30,  1999.  The  decrease in the  non-interest
bearing accounts is primarily attributed to repurchase agreements.  During 1999,
the Bank began offering its corporate  customers an investment product fashioned
in the  form of a  repurchase  agreement.  Under  the  terms  of the  agreement,
deposits  in  designated  demand  accounts  of the  customer  are  put  into  an
investment vehicle

                                       6

which is used daily to purchase an interest in  designated  U.S.  Government  or
Agencies'  securities  owned by the Bank.  The Bank in turn agrees to repurchase
these  investments  on a daily  basis and pay the  customer  the daily  interest
earned on them. At June 30, 1999,  the amount of repurchase  agreements was $6.0
million.


     Growth in retained  earnings of $1.9  million to $33.4  million at June 30,
1999 is attributed to the  Corporation's  consolidated  earnings  during the six
months  ended June 30, 1999;  less  dividends  paid for the period.  Accumulated
other  comprehensive  income decreased $2.5 million to a loss of $1.6 million at
June 30, 1999 a result of changes in the unrealized gain (loss) on the available
for sale securities due to fluctuations in interest rates.  Pusuant to generally
accepted accounting  principles,  securities  available for sale are recorded at
current market value and net unrealized  gains or losses on such  securities are
excluded  from current  earnings and  reported net of income  taxes,  as part of
comprehensive income, until realized.  Because of interest rate volatility,  the
Company's  accumulated  comprehensive income (comprised solely of net unrealized
holding  gains and losses on  securities  available  for sale) could  materially
fluctuate for each interim period and year-end.  The majority of the accumulated
unrealized  loss  resulted  from the  Company's  investment  in U.S.  government
agencies  and  mortgage  backed   securities.   See  Note  D  to  the  condensed
consolidated financial statements.


COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999
AND 1998:

     General:  Net income for the three and six month period ended June 30, 1999
was $1.6 million and $3.2  million,  respectively,  or $89,000 and $280,000 more
than the $1.5 million and $2.9 million  earned  during the same periods in 1998.
The increase in net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 were
primarily  the result of loan  growth and the  purchase  of  available  for sale
securities.

     Interest Income. Interest income increased $253,000 to $7.1 million for the
three  months  ended June 30, 1999 from $6.8  million for the three months ended
June 30, 1998.  Interest income increased  $581,000 to $14.1 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 from $13.5  million for the six months ended June 30,
1998.  The increase was primarily the result of an increase in the volume of net
loans receivable  outstanding  during the three-month  period as compared to the
same period in 1998.

     Interest Expense.  Interest expense increased  $100,000 to $3.2 million for
the three  months  ended June 30, 1999 from $3.1  million  for the three  months
ended June 30, 1998. Interest expense increased $280,000 to $6.4 million for the
six months  ended June 30, 1999 from $6.1  million for the six months ended June
30, 1998.

                                       7

<PAGE>

     Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $153,000 to $3.9 million
for the three  months  ended June 30, 1999 from $3.7 million for the same period
in 1998.  Net  interest  income  increased  $301,000 to $7.7 million for the six
months  ended June 30, 1999 from $7.4  million for the six months ended June 30,
1998.

     Provision for loan losses. The Company recorded a provision for loan losses
of $45,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $105,000 for the
same period in 1998. For the six months ended June 30, 1999 the Company recorded
a provision for loan losses of $90,000  compared to $210,000 for the same period
in 1998. The evaluation for  determining the provision  includes  evaluations of
concentrations  of credit,  past loss experience,  current economic  conditions,
amount and composition of the loan portfolio (including loans being specifically
monitored by management),  estimated fair value of underlying  collateral,  loan
commitments outstanding,  delinquencies, and other information available at such
times.

     The Company will continue to monitor its allowance for loan losses and make
future  adjustments  to the  allowance  through the provision for loan losses as
economic  conditions dictate.  Management  continues to offer a wider variety of
loan  products  coupled  with the  continued  success of changing the mix of the
products offered in the loan portfolio from lower yielding loans (i.e.,  one- to
four-family  loans) to higher yielding loans (i.e.,  equity loans,  multi-family
(five or more units)  buildings,  and  commercial  (nonresidential)  mortgages).
Although the Company  maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level that it
considers  to be adequate to provide for the  inherent  risk of loss in its loan
portfolio,  there  can be no  assurance  that  future  losses  will  not  exceed
estimated  amounts or that  additional  provisions  for loan  losses will not be
required in future  periods due to the higher  degree of credit risk which might
result from the change in the mix of the loan portfolio.

     Non  interest  income.  Non interest  income  amounted to $741,000 and $1.4
million for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999,  and $567,000 and $1.1
million  for the three and six months  ended June 30,  1998,  respectively.  The
total  increases in the three and six month amounts ended June 30, 1999 over the
same period in 1998 were a result of income  generated from ATM  surcharging and
increased  overdraft  fee  resulting  from an  increase  in the number of demand
deposit accounts.

     Non interest  expense.  Non interest expense  increased by $268,000 to $2.3
million for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999 from $2.0 million for the
comparable  quarter  in 1998.  For the six month  period  ended  June 30,  1999,
non-interest  expense amounted to $4.3 million, an increase of $319,000 from the
$4.0 million reported for the six months ended June 30, 1998. Increased expenses
were the result of the opening of  supermarket  branches in September,  1998 and
February 1999.

Year 2000 Issues

Senior  management  views  the  year  2000  initiative  as one  of  the  highest
priorities  of the Company.  With  oversight  from the Board of  Directors,  the
Company is  aggressively  pursuing  appropriate  solutions and  assurances  with
regard to compliance of all applications affected by the year 2000.

In 1997, the Bank put together a year 2000 team consisting of senior management,
officers,  and members of various  departments in the Bank, to assess the impact
year  2000  issues  could  have  on the  Bank's  daily  business  operations.  A
five-phase plan was developed.  The five phases included awareness,  assessment,
renovation, validation, and implementation.

The  awareness  phase  included  gathering  information  on year 2000 issues and
sharing it with all levels of employees and the Board of Directors. This process
of gathering and sharing information  continues and has been expanded to include
the Bank's customer base. Workshops have been provided for commercial customers.
Newsletters,  local newspaper  announcements and brochures are available at each
branch location to keep  customers,  shareholders  and employees  abreast of the
year 2000 issue. The Board of Directors is updated on a monthly basis.

The assessment  phase includes the inventorying of all hardware and software and
identification of all systems,  which could be affected by the date change.  The
hardware,  software and systems were prioritized  based upon their importance in
providing  uninterrupted services to customers.  Those items determined to be of
the highest priority were ranked "mission  critical." The Bank's core processing
system was determined to be "mission  critical." The core  processing  system is
outsourced to two outside  vendors.  The first vendor  provides the software for
in-house  processing of all documents  including checks,  deposit tickets,  loan
payments, and miscellaneous items from the Federal Reserve, correspondent banks,
and over the counter  transactions.  The second vendor, at an off-site location,
performs the process of editing,  posting, and report generation of all activity
on customer accounts.

All   non-information   technology  systems  were  also  identified  during  the
assessment  phase and  testing  was  performed.  This  included  testing of loan
calculators,  fax  machines,  VCR's,  surveillance  cameras,  etc.  Vendors were
contacted and provided with makes,  models,  and serial  numbers on systems that
could not be tested in-house, such as, elevators,  vault security systems, phone
systems,  and  heat/air  conditioning  systems.  The  vendors  provided  written
assurance that their systems are year 2000 compliant.

                                       9

During the assessment  phase it was  determined  that the cost  associated  with
addressing  the year 2000  issue  should  not exceed  $400,000,  which  includes
capital  expenditures.  At  June  30,  1999,  approximately  $190,000  had  been
expended.  These costs or any  additional  costs  associated  with the year 2000
issue  are not  expected  to  have a major  impact  on the  Company's  financial
statements.

The renovation phase included hardware replacement, software upgrades and vendor
assurance.  At June 30, 1999,  the renovation  phase for all "mission  critical"
systems are complete and other systems are in their final stages.

The validation phase includes  extensive  testing of all hardware,  software and
systems  provided by third party vendors.  As of June 30, 1999, the final states
of testing of our "mission critical" core applications are complete. The testing
process was  monitored  by an  independent  consulting  group.  The  anticipated
completion for testing of all remaining products is September 30, 1999.

The risks exist that some of the Bank's commercial borrowers may not be prepared
for year 2000 issues and may suffer  financial harm as a result.  This, in turn,
represents  risk to the  Bank  regarding  the  repayment  of  loans  from  those
commercial  customers.  Because of this, year 2000 compliance is considered part
of our loan underwriting  procedures. A risk analysis was performed in September
of 1998 on all existing  commercial  loans with an aggregate  balance  exceeding
$100,000  and  commercial  mortgage  loans with an aggregate  balance  exceeding
$250,000. The risk analysis was performed using FDIC guidelines. Commercial loan
customers were evaluated based upon their year 2000 vulnerability, their ability
to obtain the resources to identify and correct any deficiencies, and their year
2000 plan.  Their  overall  year 2000  credit risk was then  classified  as low,
medium,  or high.  Those classified as high risk are re-evaluated on a quarterly
basis.  However,  repayment  sources  for the  majority  of loans in the  Bank's
commercial loan portfolio are in multi-family  real estate projects that tend to
be  less  computer-dependent   than,  for  example,  a  manufacturing  business.
Nevertheless,  a  year  2000  disclosure  is  included  in  new  commercial  and
commercial mortgage loans requiring the borrower to maintain year 2000 compliant
systems.

A Contingency and Business Resumption Plan was approve by the Board in May 1999.
This plan addresses perceived risks associated with the year 2000 problem. These
activities  include  remediation  contingency  planning intended to mitigate any
risks  associated with unforeseen  system  glitches,  system failure,  increased
demands for cash, or processes outside the Bank's control. The remainder of 1999
will be used to further validate the plan.

While this plan was designed to significantly  address the Year 2000 problems of
the Bank, the occurrence of the following could negatively impact the Bank:

                                       10

<PAGE>


     (a)  utility  service  companies  may be unable to  provide  the  necessary
          service  to drive  the  Bank's  data  systems  or  provide  sufficient
          sanitary conditions for the Bank's offices;

     (b)  the Bank's primary software provider could have a major malfunction in
          its system or their  service  could be  disrupted  due to its  utility
          providers, or some combination of the two; or

     (c)  the Bank may have to transact its business manually

The Bank will attempt to monitor these uncertainties by continuing to request an
update on all critical and important  vendors  through the remainder of 1999. If
the Bank identifies any concern related to any critical or important vendor, the
contingency plan will be implemented  immediately to assure continued service to
the Bank's customers.

The  implementation  phase  includes  incorporating  all  necessary  changes and
becoming completely year 2000 compliant.  It is expected that this phase will be
completed by September 30, 1999.

The Bank continues to focus on the awareness phase with its efforts on providing
customers,  the Company's shareholders and employees with up-to-date information
on the  Bank's  state of  preparedness  for the year  2000.  This  will  include
employee  awareness at monthly manager and operation  meetings and informational
seminars at various local civic groups.  The Bank will also be readily available
to answer any questions.

Successful  and  timely  completion  of the  year  20000  project  is  based  on
management's best estimates  derived from various  assumptions of future events,
which are inherently uncertain, including the progress and results of the Bank's
testing plans, and all vendors, suppliers and customer readiness.

Despite the best efforts of management to address this issue, the vast number of
external entities that have direct and indirect business  relationships with the
Bank, such as customers, vendors, payment systems providers, and other financial
institutions, makes it impossible to assure that a failure to achieve compliance
by one or more of  these  entities  would  not  have a  material  impact  on the
financial statements of the Company.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     There were no  significant  changes for the six months  ended June 30, 1999
from the information presented in the Form 10 registration statement,  under the
caption Market Risk, for the year ended December 31, 1998.
