                     LIBERTY BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

             NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                     JUNE 30, 1996 AND DECEMBER 31, 1995



(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies of Liberty Bancorp, Inc. ("the Company")
and subsidiaries conform to generally accepted accounting principles and to
general practice within the savings and loan industry. The consolidated
statement of financial condition as of June 30, 1996 and the consolidated
statement of earnings for the three month and the six month periods ended June
30, 1996 and 1995 are unaudited but in the opinion of management reflect all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary for fair
presentation. Results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year:

The following is a description of the more significant policies which the
Company follows in preparing and presenting its consolidated financial
statements.

(a) Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Liberty Bancorp,
Inc., Liberty Lincoln Service Corporation II and Liberty Federal Savings Bank
("the Savings Bank") as wholly owned subsidiaries of Liberty Bancorp, Inc. and
Liberty Lincoln Service Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Savings
Bank. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.

(b) Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents
outstanding. The weighted average number of common stock and common stock
equivalents outstanding for the calculation of primary earnings per share for
the three months and six months ended June 30, 1996 were 2,643,836 and
2,666,108, respectively.

*This loan is a 25.0% participating interest in a balloon loan on a commercial office building
totalling $457,000 which has been modified at maturity by extending the term for two years and
reducing the rate to current market. This loan is current as to principal and interest payments
and is carried as substandard in that expected receipts from the operation of the property do
not cover debt service. The shortfall in debt service is made up personally by the borrower.

The Savings Bank has adopted a collateral pledge agreement whereby the Savings
Bank has agreed to at all times keep on hand, free of all other pledges, liens,
and encumbrances, first mortgages with unpaid principal balances aggregating no
less than 170.00% of the outstanding secured advances from the FHLB. All stock
in the FHLB is pledged as additional collateral for these advances.

The Savings Bank enters into sales of securities under an agreement to
repurchase (reverse repurchase agreements). Fixed-coupon reverse repurchase
agreements are treated as financings and the obligations to repurchase
securities sold are reflected as borrowed funds in the consolidated statements
of financial condition. The dollar amount of securities underlying the
agreements remains in the asset accounts. Securities sold under agreements to
repurchase consisted of mortgage-backed securities reported as
available-for-sale with an amortized cost of $56,725,000 and a fair value of
$56,300,000 at June 30, 1996. The securities underlying the agreements were
delivered to the dealers who arranged the transactions.

Information regarding borrowing under fixed-coupon reverse repurchase agreements
during the three months ended June 30, 1996 is summarized as follows:

                     LIBERTY BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

                      MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

               OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


GENERAL
- -------

      Liberty Bancorp, Inc. ("the Company") is the holding company of Liberty
Federal Savings Bank ("the Savings Bank"), a federally chartered savings bank
which converted from mutual to stock form on December 23, 1991 and Liberty
Lincoln Service Corporation II ("Liberty Lincoln II") which was incorporated in
the State of Illinois on December 1, 1994. Liberty Lincoln Service Corporation
is a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Federal Savings Bank. Liberty Lincoln
II's primary business is to invest in real estate limited partnerships and joint
ventures related to real estate. As of June 30, 1996, Liberty Lincoln II had
outstanding borrowings of $1.8 million from the Company which is invested in two
real estate development projects located in Illinois.

      The Company's results of operations are primarily dependent on the Savings
Bank. The Savings Bank's primary source of earnings is its net interest income,
which is the difference between interest income on interest-earning assets and
interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities. The results of operations are
also affected, to a lesser extent, by non-interest income such as insurance
commissions, service charges and fees, and non-interest expenses such as
employee salaries and benefits, office occupancy and federal deposit insurance
premiums.

      On January 12, 1996, the Company announced its sixth buy-back program of
5.0%, or 128,000 shares. As of June 30, 1996, 75,000 shares were purchased at an
average price of $24.97. Treasury stock amounted to 829,228 shares at an average
price of $22.30. The total number of shares outstanding as of close of period
were 2,477,022.

MARKET AREA
- -----------

      The Savings Bank's deposit gathering base is concentrated in the
neighborhoods surrounding its offices in Chicago, Glenview, Norridge and Morton
Grove while its lending is throughout the Northwestern portion of Chicago to
suburban Cook, DuPage and Lake Counties. The Company's and Savings Bank's main
office is located at 5700 North Lincoln Avenue, Chicago, Illinois 60659; a
Walk-Up/Drive-Up facility is at 5650 North Lincoln Avenue, Chicago, Illinois
60659; its second Chicago office is located at 5240-C North Pulaski Road,
Chicago, Illinois 60630; its Glenview location is at 936 Harlem Avenue,
Glenview, Illinois 60025; its Norridge location is at 4147 North Harlem Avenue,
Norridge, Illinois 60634; and its Morton Grove branch is at 6014 Dempster
Street, Morton Grove, Illinois 60053.

COMPETITION
- -----------

      The Savings Bank has substantial competition for both deposits and loans
from a high density of financial institutions in the Chicago metropolitan and
suburban areas and, to a lesser extent, from insurance companies and the
securities industry. This competition is monitored through a series of regular
surveys and reacted to through pricing policy, quality of service and a variety
of both deposit and lending products.

LENDING ACTIVITY
- ----------------

      During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company
originated or purchased the following loan products and mortgage-backed
securities:

      The new loan activity during the three months and six months ended June
30, 1996 was $53.6 million and $78.5 million, respectively, at a yield of 7.66%
and 7.68%. Repayments during the same periods were $61.9 million and $100.0
million.

      During the six month period, the Savings Bank has expanded its loan
products to offer floating rate, secured equity line of credit; auto loans at
competitive market rates; floating rate, unsecured line of credit and fixed rate
unsecured loans. The above secured loan products are written to a maximum of
$50,000 and five years in term and the unsecured to $10,000 and three years in
term.

      Originations and purchases of multi-family and commercial real estate
mortgage loans has been expanded. These loans are on properties located
primarily within the local trade area, normally with terms of three to ten
years. The Savings Bank undertakes a program to sell participations, with
servicing retained, in these loans to other local financial institutions.

      At June 30, 1996, loans receivable net and mortgage-backed securities
totalled $583.8 million as compared to $611.7 million at December 31, 1995, a
decrease of $27.8 million, or 4.55%. The average yield increased 38 basis points
to 7.45% from 7.07% between the six month periods in 1996 and 1995,
respectively.

</TABLE>

       The Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") issued final regulations which
set forth the methodology for calculating an interest rate risk component that
is being incorporated into the OTS regulatory capital rules. Under the new
regulations, only savings institutions with "above normal" interest rate risk
exposure are required to maintain additional capital. This additional capital
would increase a savings institution's otherwise required risk-based capital
requirement. The final rule became effective January 1, 1994 and implementation
will not begin until we are notified by the OTS. As of March 31, 1996, the OTS's
calculation of the Savings Bank's additional risk-based capital as a result of
the interest-rate risk capital component would be $179,000. The Savings Bank's
interest-rate risk capital component at March 31, 1996 is the lowest OTS
calculation from the previous three quarters.


RECAPITALIZATION OF SAIF AND ITS IMPACT ON SAIF PREMIUMS
- --------------------------------------------------------

      Legislation that would mitigate the effect of the BIF/SAIF premium is
still being considered by Congress. The legislation would impose a special
assessment on the amount of deposits held by SAIF-member institutions, including
the Savings Bank, as of March 31, 1995, and is generally estimated at between 75
to 80 basis points. Any such legislation also may require that the BIF and the
SAIF be merged by January 1, 1998, provided that subsequent legislation is
enacted requiring savings associations to become banks. The payment of the
special assessment would have the effect of immediately reducing the capital of
SAIF-member institutions, net of any tax effect; however, it would not affect
the Savings Bank's compliance with its regulatory capital requirements.
Management cannot predict whether legislation imposing such an assessment will
be enacted, or, if enacted, the amount of any special assessment or when and
whether ongoing



                                       15
<PAGE> 16


SAIF premiums will be reduced to a level equal to that of BIF premiums.
Management can also not predict whether or when the BIF and SAIF will merge.

      The Savings Bank's assessment rate for fiscal 1996 is 23 basis points and
the premium accrued for the period ending June 30, 1996 was $558,000. A
significant increase in SAIF insurance premiums or a significant special
assessment to recapitalize the SAIF initially would likely have an adverse
effect on the operating expenses and results of operations of the Savings Bank,
but in the future, any reduction in premium would have a beneficial effect.

      The legislation to eliminate the bad debt reserve deduction for financial
institutions and to recapture the reserve increases since 1987 has been passed
by Congress and sent to the President for signature.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
- ------------------------------

      Assets totalled $651.2 million at June 30, 1996 as compared to $680.5
million at December 31, 1995, a decrease of $29.3 million, or 4.31%. The primary
decrease in assets was attributable to loans receivable, net, of $38.1 million
and investment securities held-to-maturity of $2.5 million, partially offset by
an increase in mortgage-backed securities available-for-sale of $10.2 million.
The cash flow generated by the decrease in assets was used to repay borrowed
funds.

      Cash and due from banks decreased $1.2 million, or 14.35%, to $7.0 million
at June 30, 1996 from $8.1 million at December 31, 1995. The decrease was the
result of timing differences of invested funds at the end of the respective
periods.

      Investment securities held-to-maturity amounted to $22.6 million and $25.0
million at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively, a decrease of $2.5
million, or 9.86%. The Company reinvested maturities in other investment grade
assets which produce a higher yield.

      Mortgage-backed securities available-for-sale amounted to $108.4 million
at June 30, 1996 as compared to $98.1 million at December 31, 1995, an increase
of $10.2 million, or 10.42%. The Company maintained over the six month period
reverse repurchase agreements amounting to $52.5 million which are categorized
as borrowings. These reverse repurchase agreements were used to partially fund
the purchase of mortgage-backed securities available-for-sale. Mortgage-backed
securities purchased during the six month period amounted to $28.0 million which
were partially offset by repayments and sales of $17.3 million. The use of
reverse repurchase agreements provide a spread of approximately 1.0% between the
cost of reserve repurchase agreements and the yield on the underlying
securities.

      Loans receivable, net, amounted to $475.5 million and $513.6 at June 30,
1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively, a decrease of $38.1 million or, 7.42%.
Loan repayments and sales during the six month period amounted to $88.8 million,
which were partially offset by loan


                                        16
<PAGE> 17



originations and purchases of $50.5 million. The net cash generated through the
repayment of loans was used to partially repay borrowed funds. The allowance for
loan losses at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 was $3.5 million
respectively. At June 30, 1996, the loan loss allowance amounted to 0.74% of
total loans receivable as compared to 0.69% at December 31, 1995. The Company's
policy is to maintain a loan loss allowance between 0.75% and 1.00% of
risk-based assets. (Risk-based assets are defined as the value of assets after
they have been weighted according to regulatory standards and a value is then
placed on each category and the total of all categories is the basis for
calculating risk-based capital requirements.) At June 30, 1996 and December 31,
1995, the percentage of the loan loss allowance to risk-based assets was 1.03%
and 0.96%, respectively. Total non-performing loans amounted to $382,000 and
$561,000 at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively. There were no
impaired loans at the end of either period.

      Prepaid expense and other assets amounted to $11.7 million at June 30,
1996 as compared to $10.8 million at December 31, 1995, an increase of $868,000,
or 8.01%. The major component of the increase were an increase in cash
investment in life insurance contracts of $293,000, or 3.68%, to $8.3 million
from $8.0 million at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively. Other
increases were prepaid deferred compensation and pension premiums of $324,000
and prepaid deposit insurance premiums of $827,000, partially offset by a
decrease in investments in limited real estate partnerships of $248,000.

      Savings deposits amounted to $508.7 million at June 30, 1996 as compared
to $487.4 million at December 31, 1995, an increase of $21.3 million, or 4.36%.
The increase in savings deposits resulted from credits for accrued interest
payable of $12.5 million plus a net increase in savings deposits of $8.7
million.

      Borrowed funds amounted to $67.5 million and $117.5 million at June 30,
1996 and December 31,1995, respectively, a decrease of $50.0 million, or 42.55%.
At the end of the period in 1996 and 1995, respectively, reverse repurchase
agreements, which are classified as borrowed funds, amounted to $52.5 million at
both June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995.

      Stockholders' equity totalled $64.0 million, or 9.83%, of assets at June
30, 1996, a decrease of $660,000, or 1.02%, from December 31, 1995. The decrease
resulted from the payment of dividends totalling $748,000, purchase of treasury
stock of $1.9 million and adjustment for unrealized losses on securities
available-for-sale of $307,000 partially offset by net income of $1.9 million
and credits from employee stock plans of $380,000.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -
COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995
- -------------------------------------------------------

      The net income for the three months ended June 30, 1996 was $827,000 as
compared to $783,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1995, an increase of
$45,000, or 5.72%.

NET INTEREST INCOME BEFORE PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
- ----------------------------------------------------

      Net interest income before provision for loan losses was $4.3 million and
$3.9 million for the three month period ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively, an increase of $471,000, or 12.17%. Total interest income
increased $1.5 million, or 14.91%, to $11.8 million from $10.2 million for the
three month period in 1996 and 1995, respectively. The average yield on
interest-earning assets increased 24 basis points between periods to 7.36% in
1996 as compared to 7.12% in 1995. Average interest-earning assets were $639.2
million as compared to $575.3 million in 1995, an increase of $63.9 million, or
11.12%. The major increases in interest income were interest on mortgage loans
of $522,000, or 6.17%, to $9.0 million from $8.5 million and interest on
mortgage-backed securities which increased $1.0 million, or 165.24% to $1.6
million in 1996 from $615,000 in 1995. A reverse repurchase program using
mortgage-backed securities was established in the fourth quarter of 1995 which
increased average balances in mortgage-backed securities for the second quarter
of 1996 to $102.6 million from $43.0 million in 1995.

      Total interest expense increased $1.0 million, or 16.58% to $7.4 million
from $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased nine basis
points to 5.08% for the 1996 quarter as compared to 4.99% for the comparable
period in 1995. Average interest-bearing liabilities for the second quarter of
1996 were $584.1 million as compared to $510.4 million, an increase of $73.7
million, or 14.43%.

      Interest on deposits increased $591,000, or 10.31%, to $6.3 million from
$5.7 million for the three month period ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. Between periods, average deposits increased $34.6 million, or
7.35%. Interest on borrowed funds increased $465,000, or 73.17%, to $1.1 million
for the three month period ended June 30, 1996 as compared to $635,000 for the
comparable period in 1995. Between periods, average borrowed funds increased
$39.1 million, or 97.62%. The increase in borrowed funds is directly
attributable to the liability on reverse repurchase agreements which is carried
as borrowed funds.

      The interest rate spread for the second quarter of 1996 was 2.28% as
compared to 2.13% in 1995. Net interest margin was 2.72% as compared to 2.69%.
The ratio of interest-bearing assets to interest-bearing liabilities was 1.09x
for the June 1996 quarter as compared to 1.13x for the 1995 quarter.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
- -------------------------

      No additional provision was made for loan losses in the second quarter of
1996. The Savings Bank's policy is to maintain a minimum allowance for loan
losses equal to approximately 0.75% to 1.00% of risk-based assets. The current
percentage is 1.03%. Allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing
assets was 921.25% and 486.70% at June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. At June
30, 1996 non-performing assets amounted to $382,000 as compared to $757,000 at
June 30, 1995.

NON-INTEREST INCOME
- -------------------

      Non-interest income amounted to $362,000 as compared to $225,000 for the
three month period ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, an increase of
$136,000 or 60.47%. The major components were the increase in fees and service
charged on deposit related activities which were included in other non-interest
income of $42,000, interest and return on equity in limited real estate
partnerships of $69,000, which was also included in other non-interest income
and no loss on sale of other investments which amounted to $23,000 in the three
month period ended June 30, 1996.


NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
- --------------------

      Non-interest expense amounted to $3.4 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1996 as compared to $2.8 million for the same period in 1995, an
increase of $535,000, or 18.86%. The major increases were compensation and
benefits of $435,000 and office occupancy and equipment of $85,000. The majority
of the above items were directly related to the opening of two branch offices,
one in December 1995 and the other in March 1996. The second quarter of 1996
reflected full operating costs of these two branches with no comparable cost in
1995. The balance is general compensation increases and other increases in
staff.


INCOME TAXES
- ------------

      Federal and state income taxes amounted to $506,000 as compared to
$478,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, an increase
of $28,000, or 5.83%. The effective tax rates for the periods were 37.92% and
37.89%, respectively. The normal combined federal and state income tax rates
approximate 38.00%.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -
COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995
- -----------------------------------------------------

      Net income for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 was $1.9
million for both periods.


NET INTEREST INCOME BEFORE PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
- ----------------------------------------------------
      Net interest income before provision for loan losses was $8.8 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to $8.1 million for the same
period in 1995, an increase of $722,000, or 8.96%. Total interest income
amounted to $23.7 million for the six month period in 1996 as compared to $20.2
million for the same period in 1995, an increase of $3.5 million, or 17.39%. The
major increases were interest on mortgage loans which increased $1.4 million, or
8.38%, to $18.2 million from $16.7 million. During the six month period in 1996,
the average

                                       19

<PAGE> 20


yield on mortgage loans was 7.69% as compared to 7.19%, an increase of 50 basis
points. Interest on mortgage-backed securities increased $2.0 million, or
173.71%, to $3.2 million from $1.2 million. During the period, average
mortgage-backed securities amounted to $100.4 million as compared to $40.5
million in 1995, an increase of $59.9 million, or 147.81%. The yield on
mortgage-backed securities increased to 6.37% from 5.77%, an increase of 60
basis points.

      Total interest expense amounted to $15.0 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 as compared to $12.2 million in 1995, an increase of $2.8 million,
or 22.97%. The increase is directly related to increases in interest on deposits
of $1.8 million, or 17.9%, to $12.4 million in 1996 as compared to $10.6 million
in 1995. The increase in interest on deposits is directly related to an increase
in average deposits between periods of $36.9 million. The average cost of
deposits for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 was 4.99% as compared to
4.59% in 1995, an increase of 40 basis points. Interest on borrowed funds
increased $973,000, or 61.96% to $2.5 million for the period in 1996 as compared
to $1.6 million in 1995. The increase in interest on borrowed funds is directly
related to the increase in average borrowed funds between periods of $39.8
million due to the liability on reverse repurchase agreements which are carried
as borrowed funds. The average cost of borrowed funds was 5.63% for the six
month period in 1996 as compared to 6.21% in 1995, a decrease of 58 basis
points.

      The interest rate spread for the first half of 1996 was 2.28% as compared
to 2.29% for the same period in 1995. Net interest margin was 2.72% as compared
to 2.80%. The ratio of interest-bearing assets to interest-bearing liabilities
was 1.10x for the six month ended June 30, 1996 as compared to 1.12x for the
same period in 1995.


PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
- -------------------------

      No additional provision was made for loan losses during the six months
ended June 30, 1996 or 1995, respectively. For statistics on allowance for loan
losses at June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, see the section PROVISION FOR
LOAN LOSSES for the quarter ended June 30, 1996.

NON-INTEREST INCOME
- -------------------

      Non-interest income amounted to $610,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1996 as compared to $461,000 for the comparable period in 1995, an increase of
$149,000, or 32.36%. Major increases were interest and return on equity in
limited real estate partnerships of $115,000 and service charges on deposit
related products of $97,000. (The above items are included in other non-interest
income.) The above increases are partially offset by a decrease in insurance
commissions of $68,000.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
- --------------------

      Non-interest expense amounted to $6.4 million for the six month period
ended June 30, 1996 as compared to $5.5 million for the same period in 1995, an
increase of $887,000, or 16.23%. The major components of the increases are:

                  .   Compensation and Benefits             $449,000
                  .   Office Occupancy and Equipment         124,000
                  .   Federal Deposit Insurance Premium       85,000
                  .   Other Non-Interest Expense             226,000

      The majority of the above items were directly related to the opening of
two branch offices, one in December 1995 and the other in March 1996. The six
month period in 1996 reflects six months operating expenses on the branch opened
in December and three months on the branch opened in March. There were no
comparable costs in 1995.

INCOME TAXES
- ------------

      Federal and state income taxes amounted to $1.2 million for the six month
period in both 1996 and 1995. The effective tax rate for both periods was 38.00%
which is the normal combined federal and state income tax rate.


ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT AND
INTEREST SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS
- -----------------------------

      One of the ways the Company seeks to manage its assets and liabilities is
by examining the extent to which they are "interest rate sensitive" and by
monitoring its interest rate sensitivity "gap". If an asset or liability can be
repriced or will mature within a specific time period, it is said to be interest
rate sensitive within that time period. The interest rate sensitivity gap is the
difference between the anticipated amount of interest-earning assets, based upon
certain assumptions, which reprice or mature within a given time period, and the
anticipated amount of interest-bearing liabilities, based upon certain
assumptions, which reprice or mature within that same time period. An interest
rate sensitivity gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate
sensitive assets exceeds the interest rate sensitive liabilities. It is
considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities
exceed the amount of interest rate sensitive assets. During periods of falling
interest rates, a negative gap would tend to increase interest income while a
positive gap would tend to decrease interest income. However, during periods of
rising interests, a negative gap would tend to adversely affect interest income
while a positive gap would tend to increase interest income. Management attempts
to absorb the impact of market interest rate fluctuations by shortening, where
possible, the asset maturities and repricing dates.

                                       21
<PAGE> 22

      At June 30, 1996, the Company had a positive cumulative one year gap of
$22.2 million, or 3.41%, of total assets. At December 31, 1995, the positive
cumulative one year gap was $78.9 million, or 11.60%, of total assets. The
Company manages its one year gap by emphasizing the matching of loan and
investment repayments and maturities with origination and purchase of loans and
securities with similar maturities. Fifty two point six percent (52.60%) of all
loans and mortgage-backed securities at June 30, 1996 are either one to three
year adjustable rate or fixed rate with a remaining term of three years or less.
Furthermore, management has engaged in new loan products which have short terms
and higher yields to improve its interest rate risk. Nonetheless, the Company
closely monitors its interest rate risk position with regard to overall interest
rates and credit policies.

      The following table shows the amounts of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities at June 30, 1996 and their maturity or repricing
periods as anticipated by the Company. These repricing periods are based on
contractual terms of the asset or liability, or, if a maturity or repricing date
is not in the contract, on certain assumptions of prepayment and decay rates.
The prepayment assumptions used were published by the Office of Thrift
Supervision ("OTS"), a securities firm and our own. They are updated quarterly.
The decay rate assumptions used are based on the Company's assumptions and
historical performance. Management believes that these assumptions approximate
actual experience and consider them reasonable. These assumptions may or may not
be indicative of actual prepayment and withdrawal experiences by the Company.

LIQUIDITY
- ---------

Regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") require the Savings Bank
to maintain a minimum average balance of liquid assets equal to 5.00% of the
Savings Bank's withdrawable deposits plus short-term borrowings calculated on a
monthly basis. The Savings Bank's average liquidity ratio during the first half
of 1996 ranged from 6.30% to 6.91% and was at 6.30% on June 30, 1996.

      The Company's total funds provided during the first half of 1996 were
$233.0 million and were made up of loans and mortgage-backed securities
repayments of $100.0 million, borrowed funds $90.5 million, net savings deposits
$21.3 million, maturities of investments $13.6 million, net operational
activities $1.5 million and miscellaneous cash receipts $6.1 million. During the
same period in 1995 total funds provided were $107.7 million made up of loan and
mortgage-backed securities repayments of $38.4 million, borrowed funds $33.0
million, net savings deposits $26.3 million, maturities of investments $9.7
million and miscellaneous cash receipts $402,000.

      Funds used during the first half of 1996 were $233.5 million consisting of
repayment of borrowings of $140.5 million, loan originations and purchases $50.5
million, purchase of mortgage-backed securities $28.0 million, purchase of
investment securities $11.1 million and general operating requirements $3.4
million. During the same period in 1995 funds used were $108.0 million,
consisting of repayment of borrowings $35.0 million, purchase of mortgage-backed
securities $27.1 million, purchase of investment securities $13.4 million, loan
originations and purchases $25.9 million, purchases of treasury stock $4.9
million, net operational activities $814,000 and general operating requirements
$900,000.

      Borrowings for the first half of 1996 were from two different sources.
First the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago ("FHLB") provided funds to meet
short term needs in the amount of $26.5 million. As excess funds became
available, they were applied to reduce previously borrowed FHLB advances in the
amount of $75.5 million. These FHLB advances (totalling $15.0 million on June
30, 1996) are collateralized by the Company's holdings of capital stock of FHLB
and by certain of the Savings Bank's mortgage loans and mortgage-backed
securities. The second source of borrowings was reverse repurchase agreements
where mortgage-backed securities were acquired then sold with an agreement to
repurchase them at a later date. This arrangement is treated as additional
borrowing on the financial statements of the Company and the securities are
treated as assets. During the first half of 1996, $64.0 million was borrowed
under reverse repurchase agreements and $65.0 million was repaid.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

               LIBERTY BANCORP, INC AND HINSDALE FINANCIAL CORP.
                  ANNOUNCE MERGER; CONSOLIDATION WOULD OCCUR
                            WITH EXCHANGE OF STOCK

              New Company Plans 65-cents-per-share Cash Dividend

      CHICAGO, AUGUST 2, 1996 - Liberty Bancorp,Inc. (Liberty) Nasdaq: LBCI,
parent of Liberty Federal Savings Bank, and Hinsdale Financial Corp. (Hinsdale)
[Nasdaq:HNFC], parent holding company of Hinsdale Federal Bank for Savings,
today announced an agreement to merge Liberty into Hinsdale under the name
"Alliance Bancorp" through an exchange of stock. Alliance Bancorp's banking
subsidiary will be named Liberty Federal Bank and will be headquartered in
Hinsdale, Illinois.

      "This is a merger of equals and the many synergies created will result in
an improved earnings base and an accretion in earnings per share for each
company," said the top management of the banks, Frederic G. Novy, president and
chief executive officer of Liberty Bancorp, and Kenne P. Bristol, president and
chief executive officer of Hinsdale Financial.

      "Our strategy as a consolidated company is to focus on consumer lending,
multifamily- residential financing, mortgage brokerage and investment services
for our customers. Our objective is to create greater value for shareholders,"
Novy and Bristol said.

      "The overall aim of the merger will be to enhance revenues through asset
generation and to increase fee income business. There also will be cost savings
due to economies of scale, but the business strategy will emphasize growth of
revenues and return on shareholders' equity," Novy and Bristol said. The
combined institutions would have total assets approximating $1.3 billion, total
deposits of approximately $975 million, and tangible capital of approximately
$115 million. The merger will be treated as a purchase accounting transaction.

      The merger must be approved by shareholders of both companies and is
subject to regulatory review, including the Office of Thrift Supervision and SEC
(Securities and Exchange Commission). The respective companies' current boards
of directors will combine to form the board of Alliance Bancorp. The transaction
is expected to close in the first quarter of calendar 1997. Novy will serve as
chairman and Bristol as president and CEO of Alliance Bancorp.

CASH DIVIDEND

      Novy and Bristol said the new company proposes to pay an annual cash
dividend of 65 cents per common share. At the present time, Liberty shareholders
receive 60 cents per share annually. Hinsdale does not currently pay a cash
dividend.

SHARE OWNERSHIP

      Under the merger agreement, Liberty shareholders would receive 1.054
shares of common stock in Alliance Bancorp for every share of stock they
currently hold in Liberty. Hinsdale shareholders would maintain one share of
stock in Alliance for each share of stock of Hinsdale they own. Under this
exchange ratio, Liberty shareholders will receive a 49.3 percent ownership stake
in Alliance Bancorp. Liberty shareholders, as owners of Alliance Bancorp, will
also share in any recovery from Hinsdale's supervisory goodwill lawsuits.

"EXTREMELY COMPLEMENTARY FIT"

      "Both institutions are located in solid, attractive markets," Bristol and
Novy noted, and "the strengths of both institutions combine to form a much
stronger company - Alliance Bancorp." Hinsdale's customer base is in far-western
Cook and DuPage counties, including its headquarters and bank in Hinsdale, along
with offices in West Chicago, Lisle, Clarendon Hills, Elmhurst, Forest Park,
Bensenville, Oak Park and Westmont. Hinsdale, in conjunction with its mortgage
brokerage subsidiary, Preferred Mortgage Associates, Ltd., is a strong asset
generator. Liberty's customer base is located in northwest Chicago, the near
northwest suburb of Norridge, and the north shore suburbs, including Glenview
and Morton Grove. Liberty's deposit franchise, coupled with its strong capital
position, will complement Hinsdale's asset- generating activities. In addition,
Hinsdale will be able to overlay its premier Invest Financial Services
operations on Liberty's branch structure to further enhance income.

      "This is an extremely complementary fit in geographic markets as well as
management and asset-generation skills. Management will leverage the strengths
of the two companies to create greater shareholder value," the executive said.

      Liberty Bancorp, Inc., is the holding company for Liberty Federal Savings
Bank, a federally chartered savings bank. Total shares outstanding are
approximately 2.5 million.

      Hinsdale Financial Corporation is the holding company for Hinsdale Federal
Bank. Total shares outstanding are approximately 2.7 million.
