INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
----------------------------
The Human Resources Committee of
the Board of Directors of
The Rochester Community Savings Bank:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits, with fund information of The Rochester Community Savings Bank
Employee Investment and Stock Ownership Plan (Plan) as of December 31, 1996
and 1995, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for
benefits, with fund information for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes at December 31, 1996 and reportable transactions
for the year ended December 31, 1996 are presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements, but are supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The fund information in the statements
of net assets available for benefits and statements of changes in net assets
available for benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather
than to present the net assets available for benefits and changes in net
assets available for benefits of each fund. The supplemental schedules and
fund information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the
audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

ROCHESTER COMMUNITY SAVINGS BANK EMPLOYEE INVESTMENT
AND STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1996 and 1995
(1) Description of the Plan
-----------------------
Thefollowing description of The Rochester Community Savings Bank Employee
Investment and Stock Ownership Plan (Plan) is provided for general
information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan
agreement or Summary Plan Document for a more complete description of
the Plan.
General
-------
ThePlan is a defined contribution plan sponsored by Rochester Community
Savings Bank (the Bank). The Plan is subject to the provisions of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Employees, as
defined in the Plan agreement, may elect to participate in the Plan
after six months of employment and completion of 1,000 hours of
service.
ThePlan is authorized to borrow money to purchase common stock of RCSB
Financial Inc. (RCSB), the Bank's parent company. All common stock
acquired with the proceeds from such loans is maintained in a suspense
account for allocation to participants in accordance with the Plan
agreement.
Contributions
-------------
The Bank's contributions to the Plan must be allocated to the
Non-Participant Directed stock fund, unless a participant has attained
age 55 and elects to have the Bank's contribution allocated to other
funds. No portion of Bank contributions allocated to the stock fund may
be transferred to another fund until a participant attains age 55.
Contributions to the Plan are determined as follows:
Participant contributions are 1% to 16% of the participant's
regular base salary, as defined. The participant basic
contributions of 1% to 6% can be made on either a before- or
after-tax basis. Supplemental contributions of 1% to 10% may
also be made by participants on a before- or after-tax basis,
subject to IRS limitations.
Employer matching contributions are equal to 50% of participant
contributions up to 6% of regular base salary, as defined, for
the first five years of employment and 100% of participant
contributions up to 6% thereafter.

Notes to Financial Statements
(1) Description of the Plan (continued)
-----------------------
Participants' Accounts
----------------------
Participants may elect to have their contributions invested in the savings
fund, equity fund, fixed income fund, RCSB stock fund or in any
combination of such funds. The following is a description of each fund:
Savings Fund - A liquid asset fund generally invested in savings
------------
accounts and certificates of deposit.
Equity Fund - Common stocks and other securities expected to present
-----------
opportunities for capital appreciation.
Fixed Income Fund - Obligations of the U.S. Government, its agencies
-----------------
and instrumentalities, certificates of deposit, or mutual funds
that invest exclusively in such securities.
RCSB Stock Fund - Common stock of RCSB.
---------------
Participants may elect to transfer their interest between funds up to one
time per calendar quarter. Participants who attain age 55 as of the
last day of the plan year may transfer, within 90 days after the plan
year, all or any portion of their interest in any one or more funds to
any other fund.
Netinvestment income is allocated to participants' accounts on at least a
quarterly basis based on the income attributable to the assets held in
their respective accounts. Dividends paid to the Plan attributable to
the Bank's common stock not allocated to participants, as well as
dividends paid to the Plan attributable to allocated shares which were
purchased with the proceeds of the ESOP loan, are used to pay principal
or interest on the note due the Bank. Dividends from allocated ESOP
shares which are used to repay the note are replenished to participant
accounts by the employer through the allocation of additional shares.
Vesting
-------
Participants immediately vest in their contributions. Cumulative employer
contributions and related income become vested at the rate of 20% per
year during the first five years of employment. Upon attaining age 65,
retirement, death, full or partial Plan termination, or complete
discontinuance of employer contributions to the Plan, participants
become 100% vested in the portion of their accounts attributable to
employer contributions.

AND STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
(1) Description of the Plan (continued)
-----------------------
Loans to Participants
---------------------
Participants are permitted to borrow from their plan accounts up to 50% of
their vested balances to a maximum of $50,000. The loans are repayable
over terms from one year to five years and bear interest at a fixed
rate. The fixed rates are equal to the Federal Reserve prime rate plus
1% at the time of origination. Participant loans are treated as a
transfer from the participant directed accounts into the Loan Fund.
Principal and interest payments on the loans are allocated to the Loan
Fund and transferred into the Participant Directed accounts based on
their current investment allocation elections.
Payments of Benefits
--------------------

(4) Common Stock of RCSB Financial, Inc.
------------------------------------
Effective September 1, 1995, RCSB Financial, Inc. was established as a
holding company for Rochester Community Savings Bank. Under the plan of
reorganization, all outstanding common stock of the Bank was converted
into RCSB common stock on a one-for-one basis. The Plan purchased
common stock of RCSB using the proceeds of a borrowing from the Bank
(note 7). All common stock acquired with the proceeds from the
borrowing is maintained in a suspense account for allocation to
participants in accordance with the Plan agreement. As the Plan makes
each payment of principal, an appropriate percentage of stock is
allocated to eligible participants' accounts in accordance with the
Plan agreement.
At December 31, 1996 and 1995, allocated and unallocated shares of common
stock in the non-participant directed fund of the Plan amounted to:

(6) Termination of the Plan
-----------------------
Although the Bank has not expressed any intent to do so, it may terminate
the Plan at any time. In the event the Plan is terminated, partially
terminated or there is a complete discontinuance of Bank contributions
to the Plan, participants will become fully vested in their accounts
and their accounts will be paid to them as provided by the Plan
agreement.
(7) Notes Payable
-------------
The notes payable to the Bank represent loans to the Plan to purchase
shares of common stock of RCSB for the account of the Plan. The notes
are to be repaid in equal quarterly payments of $261,215, including
interest at 6.8% through August 31, 2000. Advances are secured by
unallocated shares of common stock of the Bank purchased on account of
the Plan.
(8) Income Tax Status
-----------------
The Plan obtained its latest determination letter dated April 1, 1997, in
which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan and the
underlying trust, as designed, qualify under the applicable provisions
of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan Administrator believes the Plan,
as operated, is exempt from federal income taxes.
As long as the plan continues to be qualified under present federal
income tax laws and regulations, participants will not be taxed on Bank
contributions or on investment earnings on such contributions at the
time such contributions and investment earnings are received by the
trustee, but may be subject to tax thereon at such time as they receive
distributions under the plan.
(9) Subsequent Events
-----------------
Subsequent to the Plan year end, the Company formally announced its
intention to merge with another financial institution. The impact of
this merger on the Plan is not known.
