BSB BANCORP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1998

(1)  In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all
     adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature necessary to a fair
     statement of the results for the interim periods presented. The December
     31, 1997 data in the Consolidated Statements of Condition is derived from
     the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's
     1997 Annual Report to Shareholders. The accompanying unaudited interim
     consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in
     conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related
     notes included in the Company's 1997 Annual Report to Shareholders.

(2)  Basic earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average shares
     outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are computed based on the weighted
     average shares outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of the assumed
     exercise of stock options during the period. The following is a
     reconciliation of basic earnings per share to diluted earnings per share
     for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.

Item 2

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

General
- -------

    BSB Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), the bank holding company for BSB Bank &
Trust Company (the "Bank"), earned net income of $5.0 million, or diluted
earnings per share of $0.56 for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, as compared to
net income of $4.1 million, or diluted earnings per share of $0.47 for the
quarter ended June 30, 1997. Net income for the first six months of 1998
totalled $9.5 million, or $1.07 diluted earnings per share, compared to $8.1
million, or $0.93 diluted earnings per share for the first six months of 1997.

    On July 27, 1998, the Board of Directors announced a quarterly cash dividend
of $0.22 per share payable on September 10, 1998 to shareholders of record at
the close of business on August 24, 1998.

Financial Condition
- -------------------

During the first six months of 1998, the Company originated $151.9 million of
commercial loans, which contributed to a net increase in the commercial loan
portfolio of $73.8 million from $654.2 million at December 31, 1997 to $728.0
million at June 30, 1998. The interest rates on these loans are generally tied
to the Bank's Prime Rate. Consumer loans increased from $299.3 million at
December 31, 1997 to $338.0 million at June 30, 1998, and during this period,
the Company originated $112.3 million in consumer loans. Real estate loans
decreased from $252.2 million at December 31, 1997 to $231.6 million at June 30,
1998. During the above mentioned period, the Company originated $101.7 million
of real estate loans, of which $47.7 million were sold and $37.7 million were
securitized. Total assets of the Company increased from $1,560.6 million at
December 31, 1997 to $1,772.6 million at June 30, 1998.

    Total deposits increased from $1,239.5 million at December 31, 1997 to
$1,411.8 million at June 30, 1998. Interest credited during that six-month
period totalled $30.6 million. The Company's borrowings increased from $178.6
million at December 31, 1997 to $210.2 million at June 30, 1998. Borrowings at
June 30, 1998 consisted of $130.0 million of Federal Home Loan Bank advances and
$41.0 million of a Federal Home Loan Bank line of credit. Of the remaining $39.2
million, $37.3 million are securities sold under agreement to repurchase. These
borrowings are used to fund the Company's lending activities.

    Shareholders' equity increased from $120.9 million to $128.3 million during
the first six months of 1998. This increase is a result of earnings of $9.5
million, $490,000 of stock options exercised during the period, and a $1.2
million increase in unrealized depreciation in securities available for sale.
This increase in shareholders' equity was partially offset by cash dividends
paid to shareholders of $3.8 million.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

    The operating results of the Company depend primarily on its net interest
income, which is the difference between interest income on interest-earning
assets, primarily loans and investments, and interest expense on
interest-bearing liabilities, primarily deposits and borrowings. The Company's
operating results also are affected by credit loss requirements, operating
expenses, the level of other income, including gains or losses on sale of loans
and securities, and other fees.

    The following tables set forth, for the periods indicated, information
regarding (i) the Company's average balance sheet, (ii) the total dollar amount
of interest income from interest-earning assets and the resulting average
yields, (iii) the total dollar amount of interest expense on interest-bearing
liabilities and the resultant average cost, (iv) net interest income, (v)
interest rate margin and interest rate spread, (vi) net interest-earning assets,
(vii) net yield on interest-earning assets, and (viii) ratio of interest-earning
assets to interest-bearing liabilities. Average balances are based on daily or
month-end balances. No tax equivalent adjustments were made.

Interest Income

    The Company's interest income on earning assets increased from $30.0 million
for the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $36.4 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1998, and from $58.7 million to $69.9 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively. These increases in interest income
were the result of an increase in the average balance of earning assets from
$1,365.1 million to $1,633.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997
and June 30, 1998, respectively, and from $1,339.6 million to $1,574.3 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1998, respectively. The
increase in the average yield on earning assets from 8.79% to 8.91% for the
three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively, and the increase in the
average yield on earning assets from 8.76% to 8.88% for the six months ended
June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively, also contributed to these increases in
interest income for these periods. The increase in the average balance of the
commercial loan portfolio was the largest contributor to the increase in
interest income. The average balance of commercial loans increased $141.7
million from the second quarter of 1997 to $710.5 million for the second quarter
of 1998, and increased $125.9 million to $684.0 million for the first six months
of 1998 compared to the first six months of 1997. The average yield on
commercial loans increased from 9.82% for the second quarter of 1997 to 9.86%
for the second quarter of 1998. The Company continues to emphasize origination
of indirect and direct auto loans, which adds to the Company's market base for
potential business and provides some of the highest yielding assets for the
Company. Despite high levels of competition in the Company's lending markets,
the average balance of consumer loans increased 32.3% to $322.9 million for the
three-month period ended June 30, 1998 compared to $244.1 million for the
three-month period ended June 30, 1997, and increased 34.5% to $312.8 million
for the six-month period ended June 30, 1998 compared to $232.6 million for the
six-month period ended June 30, 1997. The average balance of real estate loans
decreased $12.0 million to $241.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1998
compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1997. This period reflected a decrease in
yield from 8.42% to 8.29%, and the reduced average balance resulted in a net
decline of $326,000 in interest income from real estate loans to $5.0 million.
The average balance of real estate loans decreased $9.3 million to $244.6
million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the six months ended
June 30, 1997. This period reflected a decrease in yield from 8.46% to 8.42%,
and the reduced average balance resulted in a net decline of $439,000 in
interest income from real estate loans to $10.3 million. Although residential
mortgage loans reflect a steadily

                                       11
<PAGE>
 
declining percentage of the Bank's total loan portfolio, the Bank continues to
originate a significant amount of fixed-rate residential mortgage loans for sale
in the secondary market, while retaining servicing rights in order to generate
fee income. The average balance of investment securities increased from $294.8
million for the second quarter of 1997 to $338.2 million for the second quarter
of 1998. Yields on investment securities increased for this same period from
6.57% to 6.68% and contributed to an increase in interest income on investment
securities of $804,000 for the comparative quarters. The average balance of
investment securities increased from $292.2 million for the first six months of
1997 to $318.3 million for the first six months of 1998. Yields on investment
securities decreased for this same period from 6.78% to 6.67%, but increased
average balance contributed to an increase in interest income on investment
securities of $709,000 for the comparative quarters.

Interest Expense
- ----------------

    Total interest expense increased by $3.6 million for the quarter ended June
30, 1998 as compared to the same period in 1997. The average balance of all
interest-bearing liabilities increased from $1,306.9 million for the quarter
ended June 30, 1997 to $1,575.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1998.
This increase accompanies an increase in the average rate paid on all
interest-bearing liabilities from 4.67% to 4.78% during the respective period.
The average balance of deposits increased from $1,133.7 million during the three
months ended June 30, 1997 to $1,373.0 million during the same period in 1998
and from $1,114.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997 to
$1,316.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1998. The increase in
the average balance of deposits was the major factor contributing to an increase
in interest paid on deposits from $12.8 million for the second quarter of 1997
to $16.1 million for the second quarter of 1998. Another component of the change
in interest-bearing liabilities is the average balance of borrowings increasing
from $173.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $202.5 million
for the three months ended June 30, 1998. A similar increase reflected average
balances of $165.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997 to
$198.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1998. The borrowing
balance augments deposits to fund the loan growth principally in the commercial
and consumer loan area when needed. This increase in average balance was coupled
with a decrease in the rate paid on borrowings from 5.69% to 5.46% during the
three-month period to reflect higher borrowing costs from $2.5 million for the
three months ended June 30, 1997 to $2.8 million for the same period in 1998. A
decline in rate from 5.55% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to 5.53% for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 had a small impact in the growth of borrowing
expense. The utilization of borrowings to fulfill the demand in loan growth has
contributed to higher interest expense. With generally higher costs than retail
deposits, borrowing costs have contributed to a narrowing of the spread between
the Company's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Though
the interest rate spread is narrowed by these higher costs, this relationship
provides continued growth in net interest income.

Provision for Credit Losses
- ---------------------------

    The provision for credit losses increased from $2.4 million to $2.9 million
for the quarters ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1998, respectively, and
increased from $4.8 million to $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30,
1997 and June 30, 1998, respectively. The allowance for possible credit losses
increased to $20.7 million as of June 30, 1998, compared to $19.2 million as of
December 31, 1997. See "Non-performing Loans and Other Real Estate Owned".
Management considers this level of reserves adequate to cover potential credit
losses.

Non-interest Income
- -------------------

    Non-interest income increased 23.0% from $1.6 million to $2.0 million for
the three months ended June 30, 1997 to June 30, 1998, respectively, and
increased from $3.0 million to $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30,
1997 to June 30, 1998, respectively. The major factors attributing to these
increases comparing second quarter of 1997 to the same quarter of 1998 were a
$99,000 increase in credit card fees which is the result of efforts to add new
credit card merchant relationships, a $118,000 increase in service charges on
deposit accounts, and a $80,000 increase in trust fees. The increase in the same
fees account for the

                                       12
<PAGE>
 
Item 2 - continued

majority of the increase for the six-month period.

Gains (Losses) On Sale of Securities
- ------------------------------------

    Losses on sale of securities were $359,000 for the second quarter of 1998
and $503,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. This compares to losses of
$14,000 for the same quarter of 1997 and $18,000 for the six months ended June
30 1997. The Company's investment portfolio is used to maintain its liquidity
position; from time to time, securities are sold when deemed prudent by
management, to adjust the interest rate sensitivity of the Company's balance
sheet.

Gains (Losses) On Sale of Loans
- -------------------------------

    The practice of the Company has been to sell or securitize long-term,
fixed-rate residential mortgage loans. This provides liquidity to fund
shorter-term, or more rate-sensitive assets, and collateral to provide borrowing
for lending activities. As a result of this practice, the Company securitized or
sold $58.2 million and $16.5 million for the second quarter of 1998 and 1997,
respectively. This resulted in losses of $133,000 and $89,000 for the same two
periods. Of the $133,000 of losses taken in the second quarter of 1998 sales,
$298,000 resulted from the recognition of deferred expenses at the time of sale.
For the six month period ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the Bank securitized or
sold $85.4 million and $26.2 million, respectively, of residential mortgage
loans. These sales generated losses of $380,000 and $90,000 for the same
six-month periods.

Non-interest Expense
- --------------------

    Non-interest expense increased from $7.2 million for the quarter ended June
30, 1997 to $8.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1998. Several factors
contributed to this increase. As volumes of transaction rise due to growth in
assets, such as credit card loans and with greater levels of deposits, such as
brokered deposits, service expenses associated with these assets and liabilities
also rise. This attributed to approximately a $127,000 increase in expense from
the second quarter of 1997 compared to the same quarter in 1998. New customer
services and products needed to manage these services contributed approximately
$55,000 to the increase in services expense. Expenses associated with the Bank's
conversion to another core processing vendor amounted to approximately $146,000
of the increase in all other non-interest expenses for the quarter. This same
increase in expenses of services is shown in the increase in these expenses by
$421,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997 to June 30, 1998.
Offsetting this increase in non-interest expense was a decrease in other real
estate owned (ORE) expenses of $136,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1998
compared to 1997, and a decrease of $366,000 for the six months ended for the
same periods.

Income Taxes
- ------------

    The income tax expense was $2.6 million and $3.1 million for the quarters
ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1998, respectively, and $5.2 million and $6.0
million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1998,
respectively. These increases were mainly due to increased levels of taxable
income.

Non-Performing Loans and ORE
- ----------------------------

    When a borrower fails to make a scheduled payment on a loan, the Company
attempts to cure the deficiency by contacting the borrower and seeking payment.
Contacts are generally made within five business days after the expiration of
the payment grace period, set forth in the loan contract. In most cases,
deficiencies are cured promptly. If a delinquency extends beyond 60 days, the
loan and payment histories are reviewed and legal proceedings may be instituted
to remedy the default. While the Company generally prefers to work with
borrowers to resolve such problems, the Company does initiate foreclosure
proceedings or pursues

                                       13
<PAGE>
 
Item 2 - continued

other legal collection procedures, as necessary, to minimize any potential loss.
Once the Company takes legal title to the property, it is classified as ORE on
the Statement of Condition.

    Loans are placed on a non-accrual status when, in the judgment of
management, the probability of collection of interest is deemed to be
insufficient to warrant further accrual. Such loans include potential problem
loans where known information about possible credit problems of borrowers has
caused management to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to
comply with the loan repayment terms. When a loan is placed on non-accrual
status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is deducted from interest income.
Other than with respect to consumer loans, the Company does not accrue interest
on loans greater than 90 days or more past due for the payment of interest
unless the value of the collateral and active collection efforts ensure full
recovery. Consumer loans are charged-off before they become non-accrual.

    The following table sets forth information regarding non-performing loans
which are 90 days or more overdue and ORE held by the Company at the dates
indicated.

    Total non-performing loans and ORE, which is defined to include property
acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, decreased to $11.3
million, or 0.64% of total assets at June 30, 1998, compared to $15.8 million,
or 1.01% of total assets at December 31, 1997.

    At December 31, 1997, 28 non-performing residential real estate loans
totalled $1.3 million. At June 30, 1998, non-performing residential real estate
loans totalled $1.7 million and included 36 loans.

    At December 31, 1997, non-performing commercial real estate loans totalled
$0.8 million, and included 3 loans ranging in size from $78,000 to $594,000. At
June 30, 1998, non-performing commercial real estate loans decreased to $0.5
million and consisted of 1 loan for $492,000.

    Non-performing commercial loans at December 31, 1997 totalled $10.5 million
and included 35 individual loans ranging in size from $5,000 to $1.3 million. At
June 30, 1998, non-performing commercial loans decreased to $6.5 million and
consisted of 34 individual loans ranging in size from $2,000 to $1.1 million.

    The Company's policy is to charge-off all consumer loans before they become
non-accrual. At December 31, 1997, the Company had $304,000 of loans 90 days or
more past due on which it was accruing interest, as compared to $194,000 at June
30, 1998. As of each date, the only such loans were consumer loans.

    At June 30, 1998, the recorded investment in loans for which impairment has
been recognized in accordance with SFAS No. 114 totalled $7.8 million with a
corresponding valuation allowance of $3.1 million.

    At December 31, 1997, ORE totalled $2.8 million, which consisted of 10
single-family residential properties with a book value totalling $474,000 and 9
local commercial real estate properties with a book value totalling $2.3
million. At June 30, 1998,

Item 2 - continued

ORE totalled $2.3 million, which consisted of 8 single-family residential
properties totalling $295,000 and 9 commercial real estate properties with a
book value of $2.0 million. All residential properties in ORE at December 31,
1997 have been disposed of at June 30, 1998 as were the 2 commercial properties
with a carrying value of $73,000.

    Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance for possible credit losses
at least quarterly, applying projected loss ratios to the risk-ratings of loans
both individually and by category. The projected loss ratios incorporate such
factors as recent loss experience, current economic conditions and trends,
trends in past due and non-accrual amounts, the risk characteristics of various
categories and concentrations of loans, transfer risks and other pertinent
factors.

    The following table summarizes activity in the Company's allowance for
possible credit losses during the periods indicated:

the second quarter of 1998. For the six-month period ended June 30, 1997
compared to June 30, 1998, net charge-offs increased from $4.0 million to $4.2
million. Management considers the current level of loan loss reserves to be
adequate to cover potential credit losses.

Sources of Funds
- -----------------

    Funding for the Company's assets is derived primarily from demand and time
deposits and long and short-term borrowings. The competition for deposits
continues to be very strong in the market area and remains a focus of the Bank's
effort. The average balance of all interest-bearing liabilities increased from
$1,306.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 1997 to

                                       15
<PAGE>
 
Item 2 - continued

$1,575.5 million for the same period ended June 30, 1998, an increase of $268.6
million. The most significant increase in interest-bearing liabilities for the
quarter ended June 30, 1997 compared to June 30, 1998, was an increase in the
average balance of certificates of deposit of $201.7 million from the second
quarter of 1997 to the second quarter of 1998 from $626.0 million to $827.7
million, respectively. This was combined with an increase in the average rate on
these deposits from 5.56% for the second quarter of 1997 to 5.69% for the same
quarter of 1998. This caused interest expense to increase $3.1 million to $11.8
million for the second quarter of 1998. To further fund loan growth, borrowings
increased from an average balance of $173.2 million to $202.5 million for the
quarter ended June 30, 1997 to the same quarter ended June 30, 1998. Of this
$29.2 million increase, $12.3 million was from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New
York ("FHLB"). Despite a decrease in the average rate paid on borrowings from
5.69% for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 to 5.46% for the same quarter in 1998,
interest expense on these borrowings increased from $2.5 million for the second
quarter of 1997 to $2.8 million for the second quarter of 1998 because of the
average balance growth. Average balances, as discussed above for the quarter end
comparisons, are reflective of the six-month comparative average balances. The
average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities increased from $1,280.5
million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $1,514.6 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1998. The increase in the average balance of municipal
deposits was $15.3 million in the six-month period from June 30, 1997 to June
30, 1998, and the six-month average balance ended June 30, 1998 was $116.4
million. For the six-month period ended June 30, 1997, the average balance of
borrowings was $165.6 million compared to $198.1 million for the six months
ended June 30, 19 98, an increase of $32.5 million. The average balance of money
market accounts during the six-month comparative periods increased $20.1 million
to $270.9 million at June 30, 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

    A fundamental objective of the Company is to manage its liquidity
effectively . Prudent liquidity management insures that the Company can meet all
of its contractual obligations, meet its customers' loan demands, fund all of
its operations and minimize the effects of interest rate fluctuation on
earnings. There were no material changes in the Company's liquidity or interest
rate sensitivity since December 31, 1997.

    On July 24, 1998, the Company completed a $30 million capital securities
offering. The 30-year 8.125% capital securities were issued by BSB Capital Trust
I, a Delaware business trust that was formed by the Company. The Trust was
formed solely to invest the proceeds from the sale of the capital securities in
8.125% junior subordinated debentures issued by the Company. The capital
securities will qualify as Tier I Capital for the Company.

    The Company's primary sources of funds have consisted of deposits,
amortization and prepayments of outstanding loans and mortgage-backed
securities, bond maturities, and such other sources as long- and short-term
borrowings, and sales of investment securities, loans, and mortgage-backed
securities. At June 30, 1998, the total of approved loan commitments amounted to
$175.4 million. Long-term borrowings of $50.0 million are scheduled to mature in
2008. Savings certificates, which are scheduled to mature during the next twelve
months, totalled $676.5 million. Management expects that a substantial portion
of these maturing certificates will remain on deposit with the Company.

    At June 30, 1998, the Company's Tier I leverage ratio, as defined in
regulatory guidelines, was 7.25%, which exceeds the current requirements for the
Company. At June 30, 1998, the Company's total capital-to-risk-weighted assets
ratio, calculated under the Federal Reserve Board's risk-based capital
requirements, was 10.20%.

    The Company's book value per common share increased from $14.12 at December
31, 1997 to $14.91 at June 30, 1998.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Price
- ---------------------------------------

    The financial statements and related data presented herein have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles which
require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of
historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power
of money over time due to inflation.

                                       16
<PAGE>
 
Item 2 - continued


    Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and
liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result,
interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution's
performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do
not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the price
of goods and services.

Year 2000
- ----------

    The Company made continued progress on its Year 2000 compliance program
during the second quarter of 1998. Because much of the program involves
technology enhancements, specific costs to correct current and ongoing systems
are not material.

Forward-Looking Statements
- --------------------------

    Statements in Management's Discussion and Analysis are forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 as amended and the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended. Actual results, performance, or
developments may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements as a result of market uncertainties and other factors
related to Internet-based businesses. The financial services market generally,
and the market for the Company's products and services specifically, is
characterized by a high degree of competition and rapidly changing local,
national, and global market, financial and economic conditions. Such
developments, as well as unforeseen developments in the financial services
industry, could have an adverse impact on the Company's financial position and
results of operations.

Market Prices and Related Shareholder Matters
- ---------------------------------------------

    The stock of the Company is listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market under the
symbol BSBN. As of June 30, 1998, the Company had 1,727 shareholders of record

Item 3

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     The Company's consolidated results of operations depend to a large extent
on the level of its net interest income, which is the difference between
interest income from interest-earnings assets (such as loans and investments)
and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities (such as deposits and
borrowings). If interest-rate fluctuations cause the Company's cost of funds to
increase faster than the yield on its interest-bearing assets, net interest
income will decrease. In addition, the market values of most of its financial
assets are sensitive to fluctuations in market interest rates. The Company
measures and manages its interest-rate risk by focusing on the Company's "gap",
which is the measure of the mismatch between the dollar amount of the Company's
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities which mature or reprice
within certain time frames.

     Based on the Company's latest analysis of asset/liability mix (March 31,
1998), management's simulation analysis of the effects of changing interest
rates projected that a gradual 100 basis point increase in interest rates over
the 12 months ending March 31, 1999 would decrease net interest income for that
period by 0.7% or less and that a similar decrease in interest rates would
increase net interest income by 0.8% or less. The test is based on a number of
assumptions and there can be no assurance that if interest rates did move by one
percent that the Company's results of operations would be impacted as estimated.
Although the Company uses various monitors of interest-rate risk, the Company is
unable to predict future fluctuations in interest rates or the specific impact
thereof.

     Changes in interest rates can also affect the amount of loans the Company
originates, as well as the value of its loans and other interest-earning assets
and its ability to realize gains on the sale of such assets and liabilities.
Prevailing interest rates also affect the extent to which borrowers prepay loans
owned by the Company. When interest rates increase, borrowers are less likely to
prepay their loans, and when interest rate decrease, borrowers are more likely
to prepay loans. Funds generated by prepayment might be invested at less
favorable interest rates. Prepayments may adversely affect the value of mortgage
loans, the levels of such assets that are retained in the Company's portfolio,
net interest income and loan servicing income. Similarly, prepayments on
mortgage-backed securities can adversely affect the value of such securities and
the interest income generated by them.

      Increases in interest rates might cause depositors to shift funds from
accounts that have a comparatively lower cost (such as regular savings accounts)
to accounts with a higher cost (such as certificates of deposits). If the cost
of deposits increases at a rate greater than yields on interest-earning assets
increase, the interest-rate spread will be negatively affected. Changes in the
asset and liability mix also affect the Company's interest-rate risk.

     The Company faces substantial competition for deposits and loans throughout
its market area both from local financial institutions and from out-of-state
financial institutions that either solicit deposits or maintain loan production
offices in the Company's market area. The Company competes for deposits and
loans primarily with other financial service providers such as savings
institutions, commercial banks, credit unions, money market funds, and other
investment alternatives. The Company believes that its ability to compete
effectively depends largely on its ability to compete with regard to interest
