MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Certain statements in this Annual Report, including Form 10K, constitute
"forward-looking statements" as that term is defined under the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words "believe," "expect,"
"anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "plan," "assume" and other similar
expressions which are predictions of or indicate future events and trends and
which do not relate to historical matters identify forward-looking statements.
Reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statement because they involve
known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which are in some
cases beyond the control of the Corporation and may cause the actual results,
performance or achievements of the Corporation to differ materially from
anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by
such forward-looking statements.
Certain factors that might cause such differences include, but are not
limited to, the following: interest rates may increase, adversely affecting the
ability of borrowers to repay adjustable-rate loans and the Corporation's
earnings and income which derive in significant part from loans to borrowers;
unemployment in the Corporation's market area may increase, adversely affecting
the ability of individual borrowers to repay loans; property values may decline,
adversely affecting the ability of borrowers to repay loans and the value of
real estate securing repayment of loans; and general economic and market
conditions in the Corporation's market area may decline, adversely affecting the
ability of borrowers to repay loans, the value of real estate securing repayment
of loans and the Corporation's ability to make profitable loans. Any of the
above may also result in lower interest income, increased loan losses,
additional charge-offs and writedowns and higher operating expenses. These and
other factors that might cause differences between actual and anticipated
results, performance and achievements are discussed in greater detail in this
Annual Report, including Form 10-K, under "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Business".
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements
and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.
GENERAL
Warren Bancorp, Inc.'s (the "Corporation") operating results for the year
ending December 31, 1996 (the "1996 period") reflect the operations of its only
subsidiary, Warren Five Cents Savings Bank (the "Bank"). The Bank, which is
wholly owned by the Corporation, operates as a community bank and is in the
business of making individual and commercial loans to customers in its market
area.
The Corporation recorded an increased profit for the 1996 period primarily
due to reduced real estate operations and professional services expense and
increased gains on sales of investment securities compared to the year ended
December 31, 1995 (the "1995 period"). In addition, the Corporation recognized a
one-time tax benefit of $885,000 and deposit insurance expense decreased during
the 1996 period due to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation's (the "FDIC")
reducing the premium it charges banks for deposit insurance. Please see the
"Results of Operations-1996 Compared to 1995" under "Non-interest Expense" for
further discussion on this reduction.
Stockholders' equity increased in 1996 due to profits, partially offset by
a decrease in the unrealized gain on marketable securities available for sale,
net of income taxes, dividends and the purchase of treasury stock. The decrease
in the unrealized gain was primarily the result of increased interest rates
during the 1996 period. Future increases in interest rates could reduce the
value of the securities portfolio and stockholders' equity.
Real estate acquired by foreclosure decreased by $862,000 to $2.2 million
at December 31, 1996 and nonperforming loans decreased by $1.5 million to $2.7
million during the 1996 period from December 31, 1995. Management continues to
monitor those nonperforming asset portfolios closely. If conditions in the
Massachusetts real estate market become unstable and values deteriorate, the
amount of nonaccrual loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure would be
expected to increase,
8
<PAGE> 9
resulting in lower interest income and increased loan losses, which could
require additional loan loss provisions to be charged to operating income.
Moreover, real estate acquired through foreclosure may give rise to additional
charge-offs and writedowns and higher expenses for property taxes and other
carrying costs.
In 1996, the Corporation paid quarterly dividends totaling $.43 per share
and paid a special dividend of $.10 per share.
The Board of Directors has authorized management to repurchase up to
225,000 shares of its common shares in the open market. The repurchase program
commenced on April 22, 1996 and may be discontinued at any time. The 225,000
authorized shares represents the repurchase of approximately 6% of the
outstanding shares. By December 31, 1996, the Corporation had purchased 98,000
shares at a total cost of $1.2 million.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 31, 1997 the Corporation sold its rights to service
approximately $209 million of residential mortgage loans representing over 95%
of its portfolio of loans serviced for others. The Corporation will continue to
service loans it currently owns. This transaction provided an after tax gain of
$1.2 million recognized in 1997.
REGULATORY PROCEEDINGS
There were no regulatory proceedings in 1996. On February 22, 1995, the
FDIC and on February 28, 1995, the Massachusetts Commissioner of Banks (the
"Commissioner") terminated the Cease and Desist Order (the "Order") which the
Bank had consented to in December, 1991 and had been in effect since that time.
The Order was replaced by informal supervisory arrangements set forth in
resolutions of the Bank's Board of Directors adopted on February 15, 1995. In
the fourth quarter of 1995, the Bank was informed by the FDIC and the
Commissioner that the Board resolutions were no longer necessary, and at its
December 1995 meeting, the Bank's Board of Directors dissolved those
resolutions.
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
A primary objective of the Corporation's asset/liability management policy
is to manage interest-rate risk over time to achieve a prudent level of net
interest income in changing interest-rate environments. Management's strategies
are intended to be responsive to changes in interest rates and to recognize
market demands for particular types of deposit and loan products. These
strategies are overseen by an internal Asset/Liability Management Committee and
by the Bank's Board of Directors.
The following table summarizes the Corporation's interest-rate sensitivity
position as of December 31, 1996. Assets and liabilities are classified as
interest-rate sensitive if they have a remaining term to maturity of 0-12 months
or are subject to interest-rate adjustments within those time periods.
Adjustable-rate loans and mortgage-backed securities are shown as if the entire
balance came due on the repricing date. Nonaccruing loans are not included in
this analysis due to their status as non-earning assets. Estimates of fixed-rate
loan and fixed-rate mortgage-backed security amortization and prepayments are
included with rate sensitive assets. Because regular savings and N.O.W. accounts
may be withdrawn at any time and are subject to interest-rate adjustments at
anytime, they are presented in the table below based on an assumed maturity of
six months.

</TABLE>
Interest-rate sensitivity statistics are static measures that do not
necessarily take into consideration external factors which might affect the
sensitivity of assets and liabilities and consequently cannot be used alone to
predict the operating results of a financial institution in a changing
environment. However, these measurements do reflect major trends and thus the
Corporation's sensitivity to interest rate changes over time.
LIQUIDITY
The Bank seeks to ensure that sufficient liquidity is available to meet
cash requirements while earning a return on liquid assets. The Bank uses its
liquidity primarily to fund loan and investment commitments, to supplement
deposit flows and to meet operating expenses. The primary sources of liquidity
are interest and amortization from loans, mortgage-backed securities and
investments, sales and maturities of investments, loan sales, deposits and
Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston ("FHLBB") advances, which include a $15 million
overnight line of credit. The Bank also has access to the Federal Reserve Bank's
discount window and may borrow from the Massachusetts Mutual Savings Central
10
<PAGE> 11
Fund, Inc. During 1996, the Bank did not use the Federal Reserve Bank discount
window and did not borrow from the Mutual Savings Central Fund.
The Bank also uses the longer term borrowing facilities within its total
available credit line with the FHLBB. Advances from the FHLBB, other than the
overnight facility, were $2.7 million at December 31, 1996.
During 1996, the primary sources of liquidity were $30.2 million in loan
sales, proceeds from sale of investments of $14.3 million, proceeds from the
sale of real estate acquired by foreclosure of $1.6 million and proceeds from
paydowns of mortgage-backed securities of $10.4 million. Primary uses of funds
were $77.9 million in residential, commercial real estate and commercial loan
originations and $46.3 million to purchase investment securities. At December
31, 1996, the Bank had $6.7 million in overnight investments.
The primary source of liquidity for the Corporation is dividends from the
Bank. Dividends paid by the Corporation and shares purchased by the Corporation
in the stock repurchase plan are the primary use of this liquidity.
<TABLE>
From time to time, the Bank has obtained time deposits in denominations of
$100,000 and over. The following table summarizes maturities of time deposits of

CAPITAL ADEQUACY
Total stockholders' equity at December 31, 1996 was $34.4 million, an
increase of $3.2 million from $31.2 million at the end of 1995. Included in
stockholders' equity is an unrealized gain on marketable securities available
for sale, which increased stockholders' equity, of $738,000 as compared to an
unrealized gain at December 31, 1995 of $1.4 million. This unfavorable change in
the market value of marketable securities available for sale was due to the
increased interest rates during the 1996 period. Future interest-rate increases
could reduce the market value of these securities and reduce stockholders'
equity. As a percentage of total assets, stockholders' equity was 9.60% at
December 31, 1996 compared to 8.78% at December 31, 1995.
At December 31, 1996, neither the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB") nor the
FDIC permitted the unrealized gain or loss to be used in their calculation of
Tier I capital. In addition, they require the recognition of unrealized losses
on marketable equity securities as a reduction of Tier I capital. At December
31, 1996, net of applicable income taxes, the unrealized gain on marketable
securities available for sale was $738,000, of which the unrealized loss on
marketable equity securities was zero.
The Federal Reserve Board's leverage capital-to-assets guidelines require
the strongest and most highly rated bank holding companies to maintain at least
a 3.00% ratio of Tier I capital to average consolidated assets. All other bank
holding companies, including the Corporation, are required to maintain at least
4.00% to 5.00%, depending on how the FRB evaluates their condition. The FRB may
require a higher capital ratio. At December 31, 1996, the FRB leverage capital
ratio was 9.48% compared to 8.47% at December 31, 1995.
11
<PAGE> 12
The FDIC's leverage capital-to-assets ratio guidelines are substantially
similar to those adopted by the FRB and described above. At December 31, 1996,
the Bank's leverage capital ratio, under FDIC guidelines, was 9.14% compared to
8.43% at December 31, 1995.
The FRB and the FDIC have also imposed risk-based capital requirements on
the Corporation and the Bank, respectively, which give different risk weightings
to assets and to off-balance sheet assets such as loan commitments and loans
sold with recourse. Both the FRB and FDIC guidelines require the Corporation and
the Bank to have an 8.00% total risk-based capital ratio. The Corporation's and
the Bank's total risk-based capital ratios were 14.72% and 14.28%, respectively,
at December 31, 1996 compared to 13.71% and 13.65%, respectively, at December
31, 1995 for both the Corporation and the Bank, thus exceeding their risk-based
capital requirements.
As of December 31, 1996, the Bank's total risk-based capital ratio, Tier I
risk-based capital ratio and leverage capital ratio were 14.28%, 13.02%, and
9.14%, respectively. Based on these capital ratios, the Bank is considered to be
"well capitalized."
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Corporation's total assets increased to $359.0 million at December 31,
1996 from $355.9 million at December 31, 1995. Increases occurred in money
market funds, commercial loans and commercial real estate loans and were
partially offset by decreases in residential mortgage loans, cash and due from
banks, and investments and mortgage-backed securities available for sale.
INVESTMENTS AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES
Investments, consisting of overnight investments, investment securities and
mortgage-backed securities available for sale, and other investments, decreased
to $118.3 million at December 31, 1996 from $118.8 million at December 31, 1995.
A majority of this decrease was from the sale of fixed-income mutual funds,
maturities of corporate notes and paydowns of mortgage-backed securities. This
decrease was partially offset by additional purchases of U.S. Treasury and U.S.
Government Agency obligations and overnight investments. Mortgage-backed
securities decreased to $42.7 million at December 31, 1996 from $49.4 million at
December 31, 1995 due to paydowns of the underlying loans partially offset by
the securitization of $2.2 million of loans into mortgage-backed securities. The
decrease in the market value of these investments was primarily due to the
increase in interest rates during 1996. Further increases in interest rates
could reduce the value of these investments.

At December 31, 1996, the Corporation did not hold securities of any single
issuer, excluding U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government Agency obligations and FHLB
of Boston stock, that exceeded ten percent of stockholders' equity at December
31, 1996.
LOANS AND LOANS HELD FOR SALE
Loans and loans held for sale increased by $6.3 million during the 1996
period to $225.8 million at December 31, 1996. This increase is primarily the
result of increased commercial, commercial construction and commercial real
estate loans partially offset by loan paydowns and payoffs in residential
mortgage loans and the securitization of $2.2 million of residential mortgage
loans into mortgage-backed securities. Commercial, commercial construction and
commercial loans typically earn higher yields than residential mortgage loans,
but usually carry higher risk due to loan size.

Balances in residential mortgage loans are decreasing mainly as a result of
loan paydowns and securitization of adjustable-rate mortgage loans. Balances in
commercial real estate, commercial construction, and commercial loans are
increasing mainly due to the Corporation's increasing emphasis on corporate
lending.
Residential mortgage loan originations increased during 1996 to $37.9
million from $35.6 million in 1995. The Corporation originated $24.2 million in
fixed-rate loans during 1996 compared to $20.7 million during 1995.
Adjustable-rate loans totaling $13.7 million were originated during 1996
compared to $14.9 million during 1995. The Corporation sold or securitized loans
totaling $32.3 million during 1996 compared to $37.2 million in 1995. At
year-end 1996, the Corporation held $3.0 million of fixed-rate residential
mortgage loans for sale compared to $2.8 million at year-end 1995.
<TABLE>
The following table sets forth a maturity distribution of the Corporation's
commercial real estate, commercial construction, and commercial loans as of
December 31, 1996. For purposes of compiling this table, fixed rate loans are
treated as if the entire balance were due on the last contractual payment date.
Adjustable-rate loans are shown at the adjustment period date. Based on
experience with such loans, partial or full repayment of a portion of the
Corporation's commercial real estate loans prior to contractual maturity can be
expected.

Mortgage servicing rights are created as an asset separate from the
underlying loan when a loan is sold and servicing is retained. The total cost of
creating a mortgage loan is allocated between the loan and the servicing right
based on their respective fair values. The balance of mortgage-servicing rights,
net of a valuation allowance, at December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995 was
$682,000 and $338,000, respectively, and is included in other assets. Gains on
the sales of loans attributable to the allocation of cost to the mortgage
servicing rights was recognized in the amount of $320,000 in the 1996 period
from the sale of $30.2 million of residential mortgage loans. This compares to a
gain of $267,000 in the 1995 period from the sale of $25.5 million of
residential mortgage loans. On a quarterly basis, mortgage servicing rights
which are stratified by the underlying loans' origination dates and maturities,
are reviewed for impairment using the net present value method of estimated cash
flows and current market conditions. Based on this review at December 31, 1996,
the valuation allowance was reduced and credited to gain on sale of mortgage
loans and mortgage servicing rights, net, in the amount of $17,000 for the
individual strata that were deemed to be impaired, bringing the valuation
allowance to $7,000 at December 31, 1996 from $24,000 at December 31, 1995. The
aggregate fair value of each strata is estimated to be $700,000 at December 31,
14
<PAGE> 15
1996. This value applies to the rights to service loans sold since January 1,
1995, the date generally accepted accounting principles required the recognition
of mortgage servicing rights. The principal balance of those loans at December
31, 1996 is $56.5 million. The principal balance of all loans serviced for
others at December 31, 1996 was $214.5 million. At December 31, 1996, the Bank
estimated the pre-tax value of the servicing rights of all loans serviced for
others to be approximately $2.6 million.

On January 31, 1997, the Corporation sold its rights to service
approximately $209 million of residential mortgage loans representing over 95%
of the portfolio of loans serviced for others. Included in the sale are all of
the mortgage servicing rights summarized above, the balance of which was charged
against the total proceeds on the date of the sale. In the future, the
Corporation intends to sell servicing released all residential fixed-rate
mortgage loans it originates.
CREDIT QUALITY
IMPAIRED AND NONPERFORMING LOANS
Loans are deemed by the Corporation to be impaired when, based on current
information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to
collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the original loan
agreement. Generally, nonaccruing loans are deemed impaired. Large groups of
homogeneous loans, such as smaller balance residential mortgage and consumer
installment loans, are considered to be collectively evaluated for impairment.
Typically, the minimum delay in receiving payments according to the contractual
terms of the loan that can occur before a loan is considered impaired is ninety
days. In addition, criteria for classification of a loan as in-substance
foreclosed have been modified so that such classification as real estate
acquired by foreclosure need only be made when a lender is in possession of the
collateral. Impaired loans are analyzed and categorized by level of credit risk
and collectibility in order to determine their related allowance for loan
losses. At December 31, 1996, there were six loans considered impaired and
accruing totaling $1.4 million.
Loans past due 90 days or more, or past due less than 90 days but in a
nonaccrual status, decreased to $2.7 million at December 31, 1996 compared to
$4.2 million at December 31, 1995. Included in these nonperforming loans are six
loans considered impaired in the amount of $1.9 million at December 31, 1996.
Accrual of interest on loans is discontinued either when reasonable doubt exists
as to the full, timely collection of principal or interest or when the loans
become contractually past due by ninety days or more, unless they are adequately
secured and are in the process of collection.
15
<PAGE> 16
When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, all interest previously accrued
but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. Income on
such loans is recognized to the extent that cash is received and where the
ultimate collection of principal and interest is probable. Following collection
procedures, the Corporation generally institutes appropriate action to foreclose
the property or acquire it by deed in lieu of foreclosure.

</TABLE>
The decrease in nonaccrual loans between December 31, 1996 and December 31,
1995, was mainly in residential mortgage loans. In addition, at December 31,
1996 and 1995, the Corporation had $784,000 and $949,000, respectively, of loans
past due 60 to 89 days and still accruing interest not included above. These
loans are closely monitored by management and they are considered in reviews of
the adequacy of the loan loss reserve.
The Corporation's lending activities are conducted primarily in Essex
County, Massachusetts, although from time to time loans will be made outside of
this area. The Bank makes single family, residential construction, condominium
and multi-family residential loans, commercial real estate loans, commercial
loans, and a variety of consumer loans. Most loans granted by the Bank are
collateralized by real estate. The ability and willingness of the single family
residential and consumer borrowers to honor their repayment commitments is
generally dependent on the level of overall economic activity and real estate
values within the borrower's geographic area. The ability and willingness of
commercial real estate and commercial loan borrowers to honor their repayment
commitments is generally dependent on the health of the real estate economic
sector and the general economy in the borrower's geographic area.
REAL ESTATE ACQUIRED BY FORECLOSURE
Real estate acquired by foreclosure totaled $2.2 million at December 31,
1996 compared to $3.1 million at December 31, 1995. Real estate acquired by
foreclosure, net of an allowance for loss, is reflected at the lower of the
carrying value of the loan or the net carrying value of the property less
estimated cost of disposition. These properties consist mainly of land and
single family and multi-family dwellings.
The Corporation had a net gain of $1,000 on the sale of real estate
acquired by foreclosure in the 1996 period compared to a provision for losses of
$902,000 on real estate acquired by foreclosure, net of gains on sale, in the
1995 period. Unstable conditions in the Massachusetts real estate market could
result in losses and writedowns as the Corporation reduces the book value of
real estate to reflect likely realizable values.

Notwithstanding the foregoing allocations, the entire allowance for loan
losses is available to absorb charge-offs in any category of loans. Loan losses
are charged against the allowance when management believes that the
collectibility of the loan principal is unlikely.
18
<PAGE> 19
Balances in the allowance for loan losses are determined on a periodic
basis by management and the Loan Committee of the Board of Directors with
assistance from an independent credit review consulting firm. Loan loss
allocations are based on the conditions of each loan, whether performing or
nonperforming, including collectibility, collateral adequacy and the general
condition of the borrowers, economic conditions, delinquency statistics, market
area activity, the risk factors associated with each of the various loan
categories and the borrower's adherence to the original terms of the loan.
Individual loans, including loans considered impaired, are analyzed and
categorized by level of credit risk and collectibility. The associated provision
for loan losses is the amount required to bring the allowance for loan losses to
the balance considered necessary by management at the end of the period after
accounting for the effect of loan charge-offs (which decrease the allowance) and
loan-loss recoveries (which increase the allowance). The allowance for loan
losses included above attributable to $3.3 million of impaired loans, of which
$1.1 million is measured using the present value method and $2.2 million using
the fair market method, is $1.0 million.
LEGAL AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISKS
Various legal claims arise from time to time in the course of business of
the Corporation and its subsidiaries. At December 31, 1996 there were no legal
claims against the Corporation.
The Corporation is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet
risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of its
customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations of interest rates.
These financial instruments include commitments to originate loans, unused lines
of credit, standby letters of credit, recourse arrangements on sold assets and
forward commitments to sell loans. The financial instruments involve, to varying
degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount
recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. (See note 11 in the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.)
PROPERTIES
The Bank operates a main office and three additional banking offices in
Peabody and two banking offices in Beverly. At December 31, 1996, management
believes that the Bank's existing properties are adequate for the conduct of its
business.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - 1996 COMPARED TO 1995
GENERAL
The Corporation recorded a net profit for 1996 of $6.6 million compared to
a net profit for 1995 of $5.4 million. The increase is primarily due to gains on
the sale of investment securities, lower deposit insurance and decreased real
estate operations expense as well as the recognition of a one-time tax benefit
of $885,000. Income before taxes was $8.6 million for 1996 compared to $7.3
million for 1995.
Net interest income for 1996 was $16.3 million compared to $16.1 million
for 1995. The weighted average interest rate spread for 1996 was 4.69% compared
to 4.71% for 1995. The net yield on average earning assets was 4.88% for 1996
compared to 4.84% for 1995.
INTEREST AND DIVIDEND INCOME
Total interest and dividend income remained at $27.8 million for 1996 and
1995. Interest and fees on loans decreased to $20.2 million in 1996 from $20.4
million for 1995. This decrease is primarily the result of decreased average
loan volume despite an increase in average loan yields to 9.17% for 1996 from
9.13% for 1995. Interest and dividends on investments increased to $4.3 million
in 1996 from $3.7 million in 1995. This increase is attributed to increases in
the average amount of investments held despite a decrease in the average yield
on investments to 6.25% for 1996 from 6.42% for 1995. Mortgage-backed securities
income decreased to $3.2 million from $3.7 million despite an increase in
average yield to 7.13% for 1996 compared to 7.08% for 1995 due mainly to a
decrease in the average amount of mortgage-backed securities held.
22
<PAGE> 23
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest on deposits remained at $11.1 million in 1996 and 1995. The
average cost of deposits increased to 3.75% for 1996 from 3.72% for 1995. This
is the result of a shift to higher-cost time deposits from lower-cost savings,
NOW and money market deposits during 1996. Interest on borrowed funds decreased
to $322,000 in 1996 from $515,000 in 1995. This decrease is primarily related to
a decrease in the average cost of borrowings to 4.80% in 1996 from 6.38% in 1995
and a decrease in average borrowings during 1996.
NON-INTEREST INCOME
Total non-interest income for 1996 was $2.2 million compared to $2.0
million for 1995. The gain from the sale of investment securities was $250,000
for 1996 compared to a loss of $20,000 for 1995. On December 31, 1995, the
Corporation took a charge to earnings of $321,000 based on a determination that
the unrealized loss on its investment in adjustable-rate preferred stocks at
December 31, 1995 was other than temporary. The Corporation recorded a gain on
sales of mortgage loans and mortgage-servicing rights, net, of $318,000 in 1996
compared to $630,000 to in 1995. Included in the 1995 gain was a $359,000 gain
from the sale of mortgage servicing rights on $31.5 million of residential
mortgage loans compared to zero in 1996. Loan servicing fee income was $613,000
in 1996 compared to $660,000 in 1995.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
Total non-interest expense decreased to $9.8 million in 1996 from $11.0
million in 1995. This decrease is primarily attributed to a decrease in deposit
insurance, professional services and real estate operations expenses. Real
estate operations expense was $180,000 in 1996 compared to $1.3 million in 1995
which included a net provision for losses on real estate acquired by foreclosure
of $902,000 in 1995 versus a net gain on sale of real estate acquired by
foreclosure of $1,000 in 1996. Salary expense increased to $6.0 million in 1996
from $5.6 million in 1995 due mainly to salary increases and higher
discretionary bonus payments in 1996. Deposit insurance expense was a negative
expense of $83,000 in 1996 compared to an expense of $384,000 in 1995 due to a
reduction in the premium the FDIC charges the Bank for deposit insurance and an
$87,000 refund in 1996 compared to an $81,000 refund in 1995 from the Depositors
Insurance Fund, a Massachusetts insurance fund which insures deposits in excess
of the FDIC limit.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE
Total income tax expense remained at $2.0 million in 1996 and 1995 despite
having pre-tax income of $8.6 million in 1996 versus $7.3 million in 1995. In
connection with an audit by the IRS and a review of certain tax and related
matters, the Corporation recorded a $400,000 income tax credit in the first
quarter of 1996 which is included in income tax expense. The credit is mainly
the result of two changes required by the audit. First, the IRS required the
Corporation to reduce its tax-return bad-debt deduction in prior years due to
loss carrybacks the Corporation had taken. Although that requirement in itself
had no financial statement effect on income, it enabled the Corporation to
increase its dividend-received deduction in the year of the change, thus
providing tax-return and financial statement benefit. Second, the IRS required
the Corporation to shift tax-return loan chargeoffs from one tax period to other
tax periods. For federal-tax purposes, these shifts had no financial statement
effect on income. For state-tax purposes, the shift sheltered income which had
been taxed in prior years, thus providing tax-return and financial-statement
benefit. In addition, the Corporation recognized a one-time tax benefit of
$885,000 based on its analysis of the "Fresh Start" provision of the Small
Business Job Protection Act of 1996. Also, depending on the outcome of certain
tax rulings by federal and state taxing authorities over the next one-to-two
years not specific to Warren Bancorp, the Corporation may have the ability to
record additional tax credits of up to an estimated $470,000 in future periods.
23
<PAGE> 24
The deferred income tax valuation allowance at December 31, 1996 and 1995
was $347,000 and $323,000, respectively. The net deferred tax asset at December
31, 1996 and 1995 was $980,000 and $188,000, respectively. Management believes
it is more likely than not that sufficient taxable income will be generated to
fully realize the deferred income tax asset. For further information, see note 8
of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - 1995 COMPARED TO 1994
GENERAL
The Corporation recorded a net profit for 1995 of $5.4 million compared to
a net profit for 1994 of $1.6 million. The increase is primarily due to the
Corporation's decision to take a $3.0 million charge to earnings in 1994 based
on a determination that the unrealized loss on investments in short-term bond
mutual funds at December 31, 1994 should be treated as "other than temporary"
compared to a $321,000 charge to earnings in 1995 based on a similar
determination of the value of its adjustable-rate preferred stocks at December
31, 1995. The Corporation also realized increased profits due to increased net
interest income, decreased losses on the sale of investment securities, and
gains from the sales of mortgage loans and mortgage-servicing rights. These
increases to income were partially offset by an increase in non-interest
expenses, mainly in the cost of maintaining real estate owned through
foreclosure, despite a significant reduction in deposit insurance expense.
Income before taxes was $7.3 million for 1995 compared to $3.0 million for 1994.
Net interest income for 1995 was $16.1 million compared to $15.7 million
for 1994. The weighted average interest rate spread for 1995 was 4.71% compared
to 4.52% for 1994. The net yield on average earning assets was 4.84% for 1995
compared to 4.55% for 1994.
INTEREST AND DIVIDEND INCOME
Total interest and dividend income increased to $27.8 million for 1995 from
$25.6 million for 1994. Interest and fees on loans increased to $20.4 million in
1995 from $18.2 million for 1994. This increase is primarily the result of
increased average loan volume and an increase in average loan yields to 9.13%
for 1995 from 8.18% for 1994. Interest and dividends on investments decreased to
$3.7 million in 1995 from $3.9 million in 1994. This decrease is attributed to
decreases in the average amount of investments held despite an increase in the
average yield on investments to 6.42% for 1995 from 6.03% for 1994.
Mortgage-backed securities income increased to $3.7 million from $3.6 million
due to an increase in average yield to 7.08% for 1995 compared to 6.21% for 1994
despite a decrease in the average amount of mortgage-backed securities held.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest on deposits increased to $11.1 million in 1995 from $9.0 million
in 1994. This increase was primarily related to an increase in the average cost
of deposits to 3.72% for 1995 from 2.94% for 1994. This is the result of a shift
to higher-cost time deposits from lower-cost savings, NOW and money market
deposits during 1995. Interest on borrowed funds decreased to $515,000 in 1995
from $1.0 million in 1994. This decrease is primarily related to a decrease in
average borrowings. The average cost of borrowings was 6.38% for 1995 and 4.59%
for 1994.
NON-INTEREST INCOME
Total non-interest income for 1995 was $2.0 million compared to a $2.6
million loss for 1994. On December 31, 1995, the Corporation took a charge to
earnings of $321,000 based on a determination that the unrealized loss on its
investment on adjustable-rate preferred stocks at December 31, 1995 was other
than temporary. At December 31, 1994 a write-down of $3.0 million was charged to
earnings based on a determination that the unrealized loss on investments in
short-term bond mutual funds at December 31, 1994 was other than temporary.
24
<PAGE> 25
The loss from the sale of investment securities was $63,000 for 1995 compared to
$840,000 for 1994. The Corporation recorded a gain on sales of mortgage loans
and mortgage-servicing rights, net, of $630,000 in 1995 compared to a loss on
sale of mortgage loans, net, of $450,000 in 1994. Included in the 1995 gain is a
$359,000 gain from the sale of mortgage servicing rights on $31.5 million of
residential mortgage loans. Loan servicing fee income was $660,000 in 1995
compared to $724,000 in 1994.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
Total non-interest expense increased to $11.0 million in 1995 from $10.4
million in 1994. This increase is primarily attributed to an increase in real
estate operations expenses. Real estate operations expense of $1.3 million in
1995 compared to $254,000 in 1994 includes a net provision for losses on real
estate acquired by foreclosure of $902,000 in 1995 versus a net gain on sale of
real estate acquired by foreclosure of $108,000 in 1994. Salary expense also
increased to $5.6 million in 1995 from $5.3 million in 1994 due to salary
increases. Deposit insurance expense decreased to $384,000 in 1995 from $840,000
in 1994 due to a reduction in the premium the FDIC charges the Bank for deposit
insurance to 7 cents per $100 of deposits from 26 cents per $100 of deposits,
effective June 1, 1995. The Bank also received an $81,000 refund from the
Depositors Insurance Fund, a Massachusetts insurance fund which insures deposits
in excess of the FDIC limit.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE
Total income tax expense was $1.9 million in 1995 compared to $1.4 million
in 1994. The deferred income tax valuation allowance at December 31, 1995 and
1994 was $323,000 and $1,234,000, respectively. The net deferred tax asset at
December 31, 1995 and 1994 was $188,000 and $2,367,000, respectively.
BUSINESS
GENERAL
THE CORPORATION. Warren Bancorp, Inc. is a business corporation organized
under the General Laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The only office of
the Corporation, and its principal place of business, is located at 10 Main
Street, Peabody, Massachusetts 01960. The Corporation's telephone number is
(508) 531-7400.
The Corporation is a bank holding company which owns all of the outstanding
common stock of its sole subsidiary, Warren Five Cents Savings Bank. The
Corporation charges fees to the Bank for providing certain administrative
services for the Bank. Such fees are charged on a cost basis.
THE BANK. The Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation, is a
Massachusetts-chartered savings bank incorporated in 1854. The Bank conducts its
business from four banking offices in Peabody and two banking offices in
Beverly.
The Bank is engaged principally in the business of attracting retail and
wholesale deposits from the general public and investing those deposits in
various types of residential and commercial mortgages, consumer and commercial
loans, and various securities. The Bank offers a wide variety of deposit, loan
and investment products and services to individuals and commercial customers.
The Bank has been a member of the FDIC since 1983. The Bank's deposits are
insured by the FDIC up to FDIC limits (generally $100,000 per depositor) and by
the Depositors Insurance Fund (the "DIF") for the portion of deposits in excess
of that insured by the FDIC. The Bank is also a member of the Federal Home Loan
Bank ("FHLB") system.
25
<PAGE> 26
MARKET AREA
The Corporation's primary business and market area are the same as the
Bank's business and market area. The Bank's primary market area is centered in
Peabody (where its main office is located) and Beverly, Massachusetts, both
approximately 18 miles north of Boston, and includes the other cities and towns
of Essex County. From time to time, the Bank will make loans and provide
services to customers outside of this area. According to U.S. Census statistics,
the population of Essex County increased to 670,000 in 1990 from 633,000 in
1980, and median family income in 1989 was $45,794. In addition, the
unemployment rate in December, 1996 in the Boston labor market was 3.3% compared
to 4.1% in Massachusetts and 5.3% in the United States. This compares to 4.4%,
5.2% and 5.6% in December, 1995 for the Boston labor market, Massachusetts and
the United States, respectively.
COMPETITION
The primary business of the Corporation is currently the ongoing business
of the Bank. Therefore, the competitive conditions faced by the Corporation are
the same as those faced by the Bank.
The Bank faces competition in its market area both in originating loans and
attracting deposits. Competition in originating loans comes primarily from
thrift institutions, commercial banks, mortgage companies and consumer finance
companies. Within the Bank's market area and surrounding communities, there are
many competing commercial banks and thrift institutions. Further, there are
numerous mortgage companies from Essex County and metropolitan Boston with
offices in the area or calling officers soliciting in the area. The Bank
competes for loans principally on the basis of interest rates and repricing
terms, loan fees, the types of loans originated and the quality of service
provided to borrowers. Management believes that through the Bank's various loan
programs, it can compete for all types of loans in this market area.
In attracting deposits, the Bank's primary competitors are thrift
institutions, commercial banks, money market funds, credit unions and the
capital markets. Competition for deposits comes not only from local
institutions, but from those located in the Boston metropolitan market, through
branching networks, proximity to the work place and the general reach of the
mass media (particularly newspapers). The Bank competes for deposits primarily
on the basis of interest rate paid, scope of services provided, convenience and
quality of customer service. In order to appeal to customers and attract
depositors, the Bank plans to continue to offer a wide range of high quality
customer services, professional staff, and convenient offices and hours, in
addition to paying competitive rates on deposits.
REGULATION
Both the Corporation and the Bank are regulated under federal and state
statutes and regulations. The following summaries of the statutes and
regulations affecting banks and bank holding companies do not purport to be
complete. Such summaries are qualified in their entirety by reference to such
statutes and regulations.

Corporation is subject to limitations on the scope of its activities and to
continuing regulation, supervision and examination by the FRB under the BHCA and
related federal statutes.
The FRB has adopted risk-based and leverage capital guidelines for bank

business, or acquires or pursues other lines of business, it may hire additional
employees.
At December 31, 1996, the Bank had 160 employees, 34 of whom were
part-time. None of the employees of the Bank are represented by a collective
bargaining group, and management considers its relations and communications with
employees to be satisfactory.

Warren Bancorp, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Warren Bancorp,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash
flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1996.
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Warren Bancorp, Inc.
and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of their

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996, 1995 AND 1994
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and reporting policies of Warren Bancorp, Inc. (the
"Corporation") conform to generally accepted accounting principles and to
general practices within the banking industry. 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 dates of the balance
sheets and income and expense for the periods. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Material estimates that are susceptible to change relate to the
determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of real estate
acquired by foreclosure and the realizability of the deferred tax asset. In
connection with the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the
carrying value of real estate acquired by foreclosure, management obtains
independent appraisals for significant properties as deemed necessary.
A substantial portion of the Corporation's loans are secured by real estate
in markets primarily in Massachusetts. A majority of the real estate acquired by
foreclosure is located in the same market. Accordingly, the ultimate
collectibility of a substantial portion of the Corporation's loan portfolio and
the recovery of all the real estate acquired by foreclosure is susceptible to
changing conditions in these markets.
The following is a summary of the more significant accounting policies.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary, Warren Five Cents Savings Bank (the
"Bank"), and the Bank's wholly owned subsidiaries, The Warren Mortgage Company,
Inc., Northbank Realty, Inc., Northbank Financial Corporation, Hannah
Investments, Inc., Warren Mortgage Corporation Two and Peabody Development
Corporation. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts for 1995 and 1994 have been
reclassified to conform with the 1996 presentation.
LOANS HELD FOR SALE AND SALES OF LOANS
Loans held for sale are stated at the lower of aggregate cost or market.
The market value of loans held for sale is estimated based on outstanding
investor commitments or, in the absence of such commitments, current investor
yield requirements. Net unrealized losses, if any, are provided for in a
valuation allowance by charges to operations.
The Corporation recognizes as separate assets from their related loans the
rights to service mortgage loans for others, either through acquisition of those
rights or from the sale or securitization of loans with the servicing rights
retained on those loans, based on their relative fair values. To determine the
fair value of the servicing rights created, the Corporation uses the market
prices under comparable servicing sale contracts, when available, or
alternatively uses a valuation model that calculates the present value of future
cash flows to determine the fair value of the servicing rights. In using this
valuation method, the Corporation incorporates assumptions that market
participants
37

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996, 1995 AND 1994
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED)
would use in estimating future net servicing income, which includes estimates of
the cost of servicing loans, a discount rate, ancillary income, prepayment
speeds, and default rates. Originated mortgage loan servicing rights are
amortized as a reduction of loan servicing fee income in proportion to and over
the period of estimated net servicing income.
On a quarterly basis, the Corporation assesses the carrying values of
originated and purchased mortgage loan servicing rights for impairment based on
the fair value of such rights. The fair value is estimated using market prices
when available or, alternatively, using the valuation model referred to above
with current assumptions. Any impairment is recognized as a charge to earnings
through a valuation allowance. The risk characteristics of the underlying loans
used to measure impairment of originated and purchased mortgage loan servicing
rights include loan type, interest rate, loan origination date and term to
maturity.
When loans are sold, a gain or loss is recognized to the extent that the
sale proceeds exceed or are less than their carrying values. Gains and losses
are determined using the specific identification method. Gains and losses
resulting from the sales of loans with servicing retained are adjusted to
recognize the present value of differences between the weighted average interest
rate on the loans sold, adjusted for a normal servicing fee and guaranty fees,
and the agreed yield to the buyer. The resulting excess mortgage servicing
rights are amortized as a reduction of servicing fee income, using the interest
method over the estimated remaining lives of the loans. Actual prepayment
experience is reviewed periodically and adjustments are made when appropriate.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES
Debt securities that the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to
hold to maturity and non-marketable equity securities are classified as other
investments and reported at amortized cost; debt and equity securities that are
bought and held principally for the purpose of selling in the near term are
classified as trading and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and
losses included in earnings; and debt and equity securities not classified as
either other or trading are classified as available for sale and reported at
fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported
as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net of estimated income taxes.
After mortgage loans are converted to mortgage-backed securities, they are
subject to these same classification provisions. The Corporation classifies its
investment and mortgage-backed securities into two categories: available for
sale and other; the Corporation has no securities held for trading.

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996, 1995 AND 1994
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED)
Premium and discounts on investment and mortgage-backed securities are
amortized or accreted into income by use of the level-yield method. If a decline
in fair value below the amortized cost basis of an investment or mortgage-backed
security is judged to be other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment
is written down to fair value as a new cost basis and the amount of the
write-down is included as a charge against earnings. Gains and losses on the
sale of investment and mortgage-backed securities are recognized at the time of
sale on a specific identification basis.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The allowance for loan losses is available for future credit losses
inherent in the loan portfolio. Additions to the allowance are charged to
earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management
believes that the collectibility of the loan principal is unlikely. Recoveries
on loans previously charged off are credited to the allowance.
The allowance is an amount management believes will be adequate to absorb
loan losses based on evaluations of known and inherent risks in the portfolio,
changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio
quality, specific problem loans, prior loss experience and current and
anticipated economic conditions that may affect the borrowers' ability to pay.
Impaired loans are analyzed and categorized by level of credit risk and
collectibility in order to determine their related allowance for loan losses.
Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate, and it
is assisted by an independent credit review consulting firm in making that
determination. Balances in the allowance for loan losses are determined on a
periodic basis by management and the Loan Committee of the Board of Directors
with assistance from an independent credit review consulting firm. Loan loss
allocations are based on the conditions of each loan, whether performing or
nonperforming, including collectibility, collateral adequacy and the general
condition of the borrowers, economic conditions, delinquency statistics, market
area activity, the risk factors associated with each of the various loan
categories and the borrower's adherence to the original terms of the loan.
The associated provision for loan losses is the amount required to bring
the allowance for loan losses to the balance considered necessary by management
at the end of the period after accounting for the effect of loan charge-offs
(which decrease the allowance) and loan-loss recoveries (which increase the
allowance) during the period. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as part
of their examination process, periodically review the Corporation's allowance
for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Corporation to recognize
additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available
to them at the time of their examination.

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996, 1995 AND 1994
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED)
IMPAIRED AND NONACCRUAL LOANS
The Corporation accounts for impaired loans at the present value of the
expected future cash flows discounted at the loans' effective interest rate or
the fair value of collateral for collateral-dependent loans. Loans are deemed by
the Corporation to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it
is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due
according to the contractual terms of the original loan agreement. Generally,
nonaccruing loans are deemed impaired. Large groups of homogeneous loans, such
as smaller balance residential mortgage and consumer installment loans, are
collectively evaluated for impairment. Typically, the minimum delay in receiving
payments according to the contractual terms of the loan that can occur before a
loan is considered impaired is ninety days.
Nonaccrual loans, which may include impaired loans, are loans on which the
accrual of interest has been discontinued. Accrual of interest income on loans
is discontinued either when a reasonable doubt exists as to the full, timely
collection of principal or interest or when the loans become contractually past
due by ninety days or more, unless they are adequately secured and are in the
process of collection. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, all interest
previously accrued, but not collected, is reversed against current period
interest income. Income on such loans is recognized to the extent that cash is
received and where the ultimate collection of principal and interest is
probable. Loans are removed from nonaccrual when they become less than ninety
days past due and when concern no longer exists as to the collectibility of
principal or interest or when they are adequately secured and are in the process
of collection.
LOAN FEES
Loan origination fees and certain direct incremental loan origination costs
are deferred and amortized over the life of the related loans as yield
adjustments using primarily the level yield method. When the loans are sold or
paid off, the unamortized fees and costs are transferred to income.
BANKING PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT
Banking premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated
depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed
principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets or the terms of leases, if shorter.
REAL ESTATE ACQUIRED BY FORECLOSURE
Real estate acquired by foreclosure is comprised of properties acquired
through foreclosure proceedings or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure
and is recorded and subsequently carried at the lower of the carrying value of
the loan or the fair value of the property received, less estimated
40

costs of disposition. Loan losses arising from the acquisition of such
properties are charged against the allowance for loan losses. Operating expenses
and any subsequent provisions to increase the allowance for losses on real
estate acquired by foreclosure is charged to real estate operations. Gains are
recognized when realized. Losses are charged to the allowance for losses on real
estate.
PENSION BENEFITS
The Corporation's policy is to record net periodic pension cost on an
actuarially determined basis.
INCOME TAXES
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated 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
in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a
change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the
enactment date.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share are presented based upon the average daily number of
shares and share equivalents (options) outstanding, which were 3,949,000 for
1996, 3,870,000 for 1995, and 3,772,000 for 1994.
STOCK OPTION PLAN
Prior to January 1, 1996, the Corporation accounted for its stock option
plan in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB")
Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related
interpretations. As such, compensation expense would be recorded on the date of
grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the
exercise price. On January 1, 1996, the Corporation adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, which permits entities to recognize as expense over the vesting
period the fair value of all stock-based awards on the date of grant.
Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 also allows entities to continue to apply the
provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide pro forma net income and pro forma
earnings-per-share disclosures for employee stock option grants made in 1995 and
future years as if the fair-value-based method defined in SFAS No. 123 had been
applied. The Corporation has elected to continue to apply the provisions of APB
Opinion No. 25 and provide the pro forma disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123.
TRANSFERS AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND EXTINGUISHMENTS OF LIABILITIES
In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 125,
Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments
of Liabilities. SFAS No. 125 is effective for transfers and servicing of
financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after December 31,
1996 and is to be applied prospectively. However, SFAS No. 127, "Deferral of the
Effective Date of Certain Provisions of SFAS No. 125," requires the deferral of
implementation as it

relates to repurchase agreements, dollar-rolls, securities lending and similar
transactions until after December 31, 1997. This Statement provides accounting
and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and
extinguishments of liabilities based on consistent application of a
financial-components approach that focuses on control. It distinguishes
transfers of financial assets that are sales from transfers that are secured
borrowings. Management of the Corporation does not expect that adoption of SFAS
No. 125 or SFAS No. 127 will have a material impact on the Corporation's
financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

(3) LOANS - (CONTINUED)
The allowance for loan losses included above attributable to $3.3 million
of impaired loans, of which $1.1 million is measured using the present value
method and $2.2 million using the fair value of collateral method, is $1.0
million.
At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Corporation had net deferred loan fees
of $105,000 and $62,000, respectively, reflected as a reduction of the
appropriate loan categories.
At December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 the Corporation serviced residential
loans for investors of approximately $214,528,000, $220,428,000 and
$252,330,000, respectively, which are not reflected in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements because they are not assets of the
Corporation. On January 31, 1997, the Corporation sold over 95% of its rights to
service residential loans for investors.
Loans on nonaccrual amounted to $2,712,000, $4,084,000 and $3,244,000 at
December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Interest income of approximately
$161,000, $326,000 and $161,000 would have been recorded in 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively, on these nonaccrual loans if these loans had been on a current
basis in accordance with their original terms. Interest income actually recorded
on these nonaccrual loans amounted to $38,000, $162,000 and $104,000 in 1996,
1995 and 1994, respectively. Of those loans on nonaccrual at December 31, 1996,
$1.9 million was considered impaired compared to $2.6 million at December 31,
1995.
At December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, there were $1.4 million and
$489,000 of additional loans considered impaired and performing. The Corporation
would have recorded additional interest income of approximately $17,000 and
$5,000 had these loans performed under their original terms.
During 1996, the average recorded investment in impaired loans was $2.7
million.
At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Corporation had capitalized excess
service fees from loans sold of $344,000 and $489,000, respectively, included in
other assets.
The balance of capitalized mortgage-servicing rights, net of a valuation
allowance, at December 31, 1996 and 1995 was $682,000 and $338,000,
respectively, and is included in other assets. Gains on sale of mortgage loans
of $337,000 and $243,000 were realized during the 1996 and 1995 periods,
respectively, from the sale of $30.2 and $25.5 million of residential mortgage
loans. On a quarterly basis, mortgage servicing rights, which are stratified by
the underlying loans' origination dates and maturities, are reviewed for
impairment using the net present value method of estimated cash flows and
current market conditions. Based on this review at December 31, 1996, a
valuation allowance of $17,000 at December 31, 1996 and $24,000 at December 31,
1995 was established and charged to gain on sales of mortgage loans. The
aggregate fair value of these mortgage servicing rights is estimated to be
$700,000 and $362,000 at December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively.

(3) LOANS - (CONTINUED)
The Corporation's lending activities are conducted primarily in Essex
County, Massachusetts, although from time to time loans will be made outside of
this area. The Bank makes single family, condominium and multi-family
residential loans, commercial real estate loans, commercial loans, and a variety
of consumer loans. Most loans made by the Bank are collateralized by real
estate. The ability and willingness of the single family residential and
consumer borrowers to honor their repayment commitments is generally dependent
on the level of overall economic activity and real estate values within the
borrower's geographic area. The ability and willingness of commercial real
estate and commercial borrowers to honor their repayment commitments is
generally dependent on the health of the real estate economic sector and the
general economy in the borrower's geographic area.
In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has made loans to executive
officers and directors of the Corporation and its subsidiaries and to affiliates
of the executive officers and directors at substantially the same terms,
including interest and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for
comparable transactions with unrelated borrowers. The aggregate amount of these
loans at December 31, 1996 was $3,960,000. Activity in these loans during the
year ended December 31, 1996 included loan additions of $409,000 and loan
repayments of $137,000. The balance of these loans at December 31, 1995 was
$3,688,000.

(8) INCOME TAXES - (CONTINUED)
Management expects that the taxable temporary differences will reverse
within the same period as the deductible temporary differences reverse. In order
to realize the net deductible temporary differences, the Corporation and the
Bank must generate taxable income of approximately $2.9 million. For the tax
year ended December 31, 1996, the Corporation and the Bank generated
approximately $6.5 million in taxable income.
In August 1996, the provisions repealing the current thrift bad debt rules
were passed by Congress as part of "The Small Business Job Protection Act of
1996." The new rules eliminate the 8% of taxable income method for deducting
additions to the tax bad debt reserves for all thrifts for tax years beginning
after December 31, 1995. These rules also require that all thrift institutions
recapture all or a portion of their bad debt reserves added since the base year
(last taxable year beginning before January 1, 1988). The Bank has previously
recorded a deferred tax liability equal to the bad debt recapture and as such,
the new rules will have no effect on net income or federal income tax expense.
The unrecaptured base year reserves will not be subject to recapture as
long as the institution continues to carry on the business of banking. In
addition, the balance of the pre-1988 bad debt tax reserves continue to be
subject to a provision of the current law that requires recapture in the case of
certain excess distributions to shareholders. The tax effect of pre-1988 bad
debt tax reserves subject to recapture in the case of certain excess
distributions is approximately $885,000.

(9) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
CAPITAL ADEQUACY
The Corporation is subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital
requirements can initiate certain mandatory-and possibly additional
discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct
material effect on the Corporation's financial statements. Under capital
adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action,
the Corporation must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative
measures of the Corporation's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet
items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Corporation's
capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by
the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
The Federal Reserve Board's ("FRB") leverage capital-to-assets guidelines
require the strongest and most highly rated bank holding companies to maintain a
3.00% ratio of Tier I capital to average consolidated assets. All other bank
holding companies, including the Corporation, are required to maintain at least
4.00% to 5.00% depending on how the FRB evaluates their condition. The FRB may
require a higher capital ratio. The FDIC's leverage capital-to-assets ratio
guidelines on the Bank are substantively similar to those adopted by the FRB
described above.
The FRB and the FDIC have also imposed risk-based capital requirements on
the Corporation and the Bank, respectively, which give different risk weightings
to assets and to off-balance sheet assets such as loan commitments and loans
sold with recourse. Both the FRB and FDIC guidelines require the Corporation and
the Bank to have a 4.00% Tier I risk-based capital ratio and an 8.00% total
risk-based capital ratio. At December 31, 1996, neither the FRB nor the FDIC
permitted the unrealized gain on marketable securities available for sale to be
used in their calculation of regulatory capital.
As of September 30, 1996, the most recent notification from the FDIC
categorized the Bank as "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for
prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Bank must
maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios
as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since
that notification that management believes would cause a change in the Bank's
categorization.

PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE RIGHTS
In April 1989, the Board of Directors declared a dividend distribution of
one Preferred Stock Purchase Right for each outstanding share of the
Corporation's common stock. These rights, which expire in 1999, entitle their
holders to purchase from the Corporation one one-hundredth of a share (a "unit")
of Series A Junior Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock, par value $0.10 per
share, ("preferred stock") at a cash exercise price of $35 per unit, subject to
adjustment. The rights will trade separately from the common stock and will
become exercisable when a person or group has acquired 20% or more of the
outstanding common stock, upon a tender offer that would result in a person or
group acquiring 20% or more of the outstanding common stock, or upon the
declaration by the Board of Directors that any person is an "adverse person"
holding 10% or more of the outstanding stock.
In the event a person or group acquires 20% or more of the outstanding
common stock or the Board of Directors declares a person an "adverse person",
each right would entitle its holder (except if the holder is a person or group
described above) to receive upon exercise sufficient units of preferred stock to
equal a value of two times the exercise price of the purchase right. In the
event the Corporation is acquired in a merger or other business combination
transaction or if 50% or more of the Corporation's assets or earning power is
sold, each holder may receive upon exercise common stock of the acquiring
company with a value equal to two times the exercise price of the right.

The rights are redeemable by the Board of Directors at a price of $.02 per

common stock or the Board of Directors declares a person is an "adverse person".
RETAINED EARNINGS
At the time of the Bank's conversion from mutual to stock form of ownership
in 1986, the Bank established a liquidation account for the benefit of eligible
account holders who continue to maintain their accounts in the Bank after the
Conversion. Liquidation subaccounts totaling $12,340,000 were established for
each such eligible account holder equal to such holder's proportionate share of
total qualifying deposits on February 28, 1986. After the acquisition of Beverly
Savings Bank ("Beverly"), the Bank established a separate liquidation account
for the benefit of eligible account holders of Beverly who continue to maintain
their account after Beverly's conversion from mutual to stock form of ownership
and the subsequent Beverly acquisition, and subaccounts for each such holder
based on such holder's proportionate share of Beverly's total qualifying assets
on April 30, 1986. The balance in the two liquidation accounts at December 31,
1996, the latest measurement date, was $2,277,000. This amount is unaudited.
Both liquidation accounts will be reduced to the extent that eligible account
holders have reduced their qualifying deposits. Subsequent increases will not
restore an eligible account holder's interest in his liquidation subaccount. In
the event of a complete liquidation of the Bank, and in only such event, each
eligible account holder will be entitled to receive a distribution from the
liquidation accounts equal to the current adjusted qualifying balance of his
subaccount, to the extent of the Bank's assets remaining after payment of all
prior claims.
The Bank may not declare or pay a dividend to the holding company if the
effect thereof would reduce capital below regulatory minimums or otherwise
violate banking regulations.
(10) EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
The Bank provides a 401(k) savings plan for the benefit of its employees.
Under this defined-contribution plan, the Corporation contributes 3% of each
eligible employee's W-2 compensation to his or her 401(k) account. In addition,
the Corporation matches employee contributions, up to 8% of the employee's
compensation, at a rate of 25%. The Corporation may also make a profit-sharing
distribution to employees' 401(k) accounts. The plan is administered by a third
party. Contribution rates are subject to change.

PENSION PLAN
The Bank provides a defined-benefit, non-contributory pension plan for its
eligible employees through membership in the Savings Bank Employees Retirement
Association ("SBERA"). The plan is funded based on requirements set forth by the
Trustees of SBERA. In conjunction with the introduction of the 401(k) Savings
Plan, the Corporation restructured its pension plan and, effective September 30,
1993, stopped providing new pension benefits for employee services after that
date.

Effective July 1, 1995, the Bank established a supplemental retirement
benefit arrangement for the Chief Executive Officer. The expense to maintain
that arrangement amounted to $164,000 in 1996 and $83,000 in 1995.
STOCK OPTION PLAN
The Corporation instituted three stock option plans, one each in 1986, 1991
and 1995 (the "Option Plans"), for the benefit of officers and directors and
reserved 300,000 shares of authorized but unissued common stock for each plan of
issuance thereunder. The terms of the Option Plans are similar and provide for
options to be granted at the fair market value of the common stock on the date
of grant. Options granted expire ten years after the date for grant.
<TABLE>
As permitted under SFAS 123, the Corporation continues to apply APB Opinion
No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for the Options Plans;
therefore, no compensation cost has been recognized. Had compensation cost been
recognized, salaries and employees benefits expense would have increased by
$274,000 and $175,000 in 1996 and 1995, respectively, which is the estimated
fair value of the options granted during those years, and the Corporation's net
income and earning per common and common-equivalent share would have been
reduced to the pro-forma amounts indicated below:

</TABLE>
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using
the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average
assumptions used for grants in 1996 and 1995, respectively: dividend yield of
3.61% and 4.96%; expected volatility of 32% and 38%; risk-free interest rates of
6.6% and 6.5%; and expected lives of six years for 1996 and 1995.

customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations of interest rates.
These financial instruments include commitments to originate loans,

unused lines of credit, standby letters of credit, recourse arrangements on sold
assets and forward commitments to sell loans. The financial instruments involve,
to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the
amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The contract or notional
amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Corporation
has in particular classes of financial instruments.
The Corporation's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by
the other party to the financial instrument for loan commitments, standby
letters of credit and recourse arrangements is represented by the contractual
amount of these instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit policies in
making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet
instruments. For forward commitments to sell loans, the contract or notional
amounts do not represent exposure to credit loss. The Corporation controls the
credit risk on its forward commitments through credit approvals, limits and
monitoring procedures.

Financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk at December 31 are as

</TABLE>
Commitments to originate loans, unused lines of credit, and unadvanced
portions of construction loans are agreements to lend to a customer provided
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments
generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may
require payment of a fee. Since some of the commitments may expire without being
drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future
cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case
by case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the
Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the
borrower. Collateral held varies but may include single family houses,
inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing properties.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to
guarantee the performance by a customer to a third party. These guarantees are
primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, bond
financing, and similar transactions. The credit risk

involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that in
extending loan facilities to customers.
Forward commitments to sell loans are contracts which the Corporation
enters into for the purpose of reducing the interest rate risk associated with
originating loans for sale. In order to fulfill a forward commitment, the
Corporation typically receives cash to be exchanged for the loans at a specified
price at a future date agreed to by both parties. Risk may arise from the
possible inability of the Corporation to deliver the loans specified on the
commitment. Unrealized gains and losses on contracts used to hedge the
Corporation's closed loans and pipeline of loans expected to close are
considered in determining the lower of cost or market value of loans held for
sale.
A portion of the Bank's loans were sold with recourse in the event of
default by the borrower. The remaining principal balance of loans sold with
recourse in the event of default amounted to $2,504,000 and $2,799,000 at
December 31, 1996 and 1995 respectively. These transactions were recorded as a
sale of assets for financial reporting purposes.
As a nonmember of the Federal Reserve System, the Corporation is required
to maintain certain reserves of vault cash and/or deposits with the Federal
Reserve Bank of Boston. The amount of this reserve requirement included in cash
and due from banks was $1.2 million at December 31, 1996.
There are no legal claims against the Corporation arising in the normal
course of business at December 31, 1996.

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996, 1995 AND 1994
(14) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Corporation estimates the fair value of its financial instruments at a
discrete point in time based on relevant market information and information
about the financial instruments. Because no active market exists for a portion
of those financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgment
regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk
characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These
estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of
significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes
in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Fair value estimates are based on existing on- and off-balance sheet
financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated
future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered
financial instruments. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the
realization of unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair
value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates.
CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS, ACCRUED INTEREST RECEIVABLE, ACCRUED INTEREST PAYABLE
AND OTHER BORROWED FUNDS
Cash and due from banks, accrued interest receivable, accrued interest
payable, and other borrowed funds are short-term in nature and are not subject
to material interest rate changes which would result in a fair value different
from book value. In addition, an adjustment to fair value for credit risk is not
considered necessary because of the current financial status of the various
counterparties. The book value of these financial instruments is representative
of their fair value.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
U.S. Treasury and Government Agency securities, mortgage-backed securities,
money market funds, fixed income mutual funds and common and preferred stock are
actively traded in a secondary market. Published investment securities market
values are used as fair value for most of these securities. Refer to Note 2 for
the market value of these securities. Stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank and
the Mutual Savings Central Fund and advances to the Thrift Institution Fund for
Economic Development are not traded in a secondary market. Based upon the
characteristics of these securities, however, book value is a reasonable
estimate of fair value. The fair value of stock in SBLI is based upon its most
recent appraisal.
LOANS
Fair value of loans is estimated for portfolios of loans with similar
financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as residential
mortgage, commercial real estate, commercial, and consumer.
The fair value of fixed-rate residential mortgage loans is primarily based
upon secondary market rates for mortgage-backed securities consisting of
mortgages similar in nature to the loans included in the Bank's residential
mortgage loan portfolio. The fair value of all other types of loans is estimated
by discounting contractual cash flows using estimated market discount rates
which reflect the interest rate and credit risk inherent in the loans. The
discount rate used in the fair value estimation reflects rates that are
available to customers who meet the Bank's underwriting standards.

(14) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - (CONTINUED)
Management has made estimates of fair value of loans that it believes are
reasonable. However, because there is no market for many of the types of loans,
management has no basis to determine whether the fair value presented would be
indicative of the value negotiated in an actual sale.
<TABLE>
The following table presents key characteristics of the loan portfolio and
estimates of fair value at December 31, 1996 and 1995 (dollars in millions):

(14) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - (CONTINUED)
DEPOSIT LIABILITIES AND ESCROW DEPOSITS OF BORROWERS
The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity such as savings
deposits, non-interest deposits and escrow deposits of borrowers is equal to the
book value of these accounts. The fair value of time deposits (including
retirement time deposits) is based upon the discounted value of contractual cash
flows. The discount rate has been estimated using the rates offered for deposits
of a similar remaining maturity as of December 31, 1996 and 1995. Early
withdrawal assumptions, based on the Bank's experience, do not materially affect
the estimation of fair value.
The book and estimated fair value of time deposits at December 31, 1996 was
$137.3 million and $137.5 million, respectively. At December 31, 1995, the book
and estimated fair value of time deposits was $132.7 million and $133.1 million,
respectively.
FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK ADVANCES
The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances is based upon the
discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using
the rates for advances of a similar remaining maturity as of December 31, 1996
and 1995. The book value and fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances as of
December 31, 1996 was $2.7 million and $2.7 million, respectively. At December
31, 1995, the book value and fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances was
$5.8 million and $5.8 million, respectively.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair value of the Corporation's commitments to extend credit is
estimated using fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking
into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties'
credit standing. The fair value of the Corporation's commitments to sell loans
is based on current market prices. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, management has
estimated the fair values of these financial instruments to be immaterial.
(15) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 31, 1997, the Corporation sold its rights to service
approximately $209 million of residential mortgage loans representing over 95%
of its portfolio of loans serviced for others. The Corporation received net
proceeds of $2.6 million. Certain assets and expenses totaling $1.1 million
consisting mainly of capitalized mortgage-servicing rights and capitalized
excess service fees, were charged against this gain resulting in a pre-tax
profit of $1.5 million.
