             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

                               September 30, 1998

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been 
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for 
interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q. 
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes 
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial 
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of 
normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have 
been included. The statement of condition at December 31, 1997 has been 
derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not 
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted 
accounting principles for complete financial statements. Operating results 
for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1998 are not 
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year 
ending December 31, 1998. For further information, refer to the consolidated 
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the annual report for 
Kankakee Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") on Form 10-K for the year ended 
December 31, 1997.

Note 2 - Earnings Per Share

     Basic earnings per share of common stock have been determined by 
dividing net income for the period by the average number of shares of common 
stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share of common stock have been 
determined by dividing net income for the period by the average number of 
shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding. Common stock 
equivalents assume exercise of stock options, and the calculation assumes 
purchase of treasury stock with the option proceeds at the average market 
price for the period (when dilutive). The Company has an incentive stock 
option plan for the benefit of directors, officers and employees. Diluted 
earnings per share have been determined considering the stock options 
granted, net of stock options which have been exercised.

Note 3 - Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities

     At September 30, 1998, in accordance with the requirements of Statement 
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 ("SFAS 115"), "Accounting for 
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities", stockholders' equity has 
been increased by $632,955. This represents the amount by which the market 
value of the available-for-sale securities and the available-for-sale 
mortgage-backed securities exceeded the book value, net of an income tax 
provision of $326,199. A decrease in market interest rates during the nine 
months ended September 30, 1998 resulted in a $561,074 increase in the market 
value, net of income tax effect, of the available-for-sale securities and the 
available-for-sale mortgage-backed securities during the nine months. At the 
end of 1997, the market value of the available-for-sale securities portfolio 
exceeded the book value by $71,881, net of income tax benefit.

                             KANKAKEE BANCORP, INC.
                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

     The Company was formed in late 1992 under the laws of the State of 
Delaware for the purpose of becoming the savings and loan holding company of 
Kankakee Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"), the Company's principal 
subsidiary. The Bank was originally chartered in 1885 as an Illinois savings 
and loan association and was converted to a federally chartered thrift 
institution in 1937.

     The Company serves the financial needs of families and local businesses 
in its primary market areas through its main office at 310 South Schuyler 
Avenue, Kankakee, Illinois and fourteen branch offices located in the 
communities of Ashkum, Bourbonnais, Bradley, Braidwood, Champaign, Coal City 
(2), Diamond, Dwight, Herscher, Hoopeston, Manteno, Momence and Urbana, 
Illinois. The Company's business involves attracting deposits from the 
general public and using such deposits to originate residential mortgage 
loans and, to a lesser extent, commercial real estate, consumer, commercial 
business, multi-family and construction loans in its market areas. The 
Company also invests in investment securities, mortgage-backed securities and 
various types of short term liquid assets.

BANK ACQUISITION AND OTHER DEVELOPMENTS

     On January 29, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of Coal City 
National Bank ("CCNB") from Coal City Corporation, a multi-bank holding 
company headquartered in Chicago, Illinois. CCNB was based in Coal City, 
Illinois, which is 30 miles northwest of Kankakee, and also had offices in 
nearby Braidwood and Diamond, Illinois. All three offices of CCNB became 
offices of the Bank upon completion of the merger, and their operating 
results have been included with those of the Bank since January 29, 1998.

     At the time of purchase, CCNB had total assets of approximately $56.0 
million, deposits of approximately $51.7 million and stockholders' equity of 
approximately $3.7 million. The cash purchase price, including acquisition 
costs, was $8.2 million, and the transaction was accounted for as a purchase. 
Intangible assets of about $3.8 million have been recorded as a result of 
this purchase.

     In addition to the purchase of CCNB, two new branch offices of the Bank 
were opened during the first nine months of 1998. A branch in a grocery store 
in Coal City, Illinois and a stand alone branch in Urbana, Illinois opened 
for business in June. The Company also completed construction of a new 
building to replace its Herscher, Illinois branch. The new building was 
occupied and opened for business on August 3, 1998. During the third quarter, 
the Company began construction on an in-store branch office in Bradley, 
Illinois. The Bradley office opened for business on November 2, 1998.

     During the second quarter of 1998, the Company completed the data 
processing conversion of the deposit and loan accounts acquired with the 
acquisition of CCNB. Additionally, the Company's item processing was 
converted to an in-house operation during the second quarter.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

     Total assets of the Company increased by $61.8 million, or 18.0%, to 
$405.2 million at September 30, 1998 from $343.4 million at December 31, 
1997. The primary reason for the increase in total assets was the acquisition 
of CCNB.

     Cash and cash equivalents increased by $26.9 million, or 117.7% from 
$22.8 million at December 31, 1997 to $49.7 million at September 30, 1998. 
The increase was primarily attributable to cash and cash equivalents acquired 
with the purchase of CCNB.

     During the nine-month period ended September 30, 1998, net loans 
receivable increased by $4.3 million, or 1.8%, from $238.8 million to $243.1 
million. This was primarily the result of the acquisition of $17.6 million in 
loans with CCNB, the origination (or purchase) of $40.1 million of real 
estate loans and the origination (or purchase) of $31.3 million of consumer 
and commercial business loans, offset by loan repayments which totaled $84.3 
million. The high level of loan repayments was the result of refinancing of 
existing loans due to the low interest rate environment.

     Loans held for sale increased by $472,000, or 185.3%, during the 
nine-month period ended September 30, 1998, to $726,000 from $254,000 at 
December 31, 1997. The increase was the result of the origination of $31.1 
million of such loans, which was partially offset by the sale of $30.8 
million of such loans. The increase in origination and sale of loans held for 
sale is the result of a flat yield curve and low market interest rates for 
mortgage loans, which have created a high level of refinancings into fixed 
rate loans.

     Securities available-for-sale increased by $32.3 million, or 87.5%, to 
$69.1 million at September 30, 1998 from $36.8 million at December 31, 1997 
as the result of the acquisition of $15.1 million of such securities with the 
purchase of CCNB, and the purchase of $38.4 million in such securities, which 
was partially offset by the maturity of $22.0 million of such securities and 
by the net change in market value adjustment.

     Mortgage-backed securities available-for-sale decreased by $9.7 million, 
or 34.3%, to $18.6 million at September 30, 1998 from $28.3 million at 
December 31, 1997. The decrease resulted from maturities of $11.8 million of 
such securities, which was partially offset by the acquisition of $286,000 of 
such securities with the purchase of CCNB, the purchase of $2.0 million of 
such securities and the change in market value adjustment.

     During the nine-month period ended September 30, 1998, intangible assets 
increased by $3.5 million, or 163.1%, to $5.7 million from $2.2 million at 
December 31, 1997. This increase was a result of the $3.8 million of 
intangible assets created by the purchase of CCNB on January 29, 1998, which 
was partially offset by amortization of $303,000.

     Deposits increased by $60.8 million, or 22.4%, to $340.8 million at 
September 30, 1998 from $280.0 million at December 31, 1997. The increase 
resulted from the acquisition of $51.9 million in deposits with the purchase 
of CCNB, a $1.5 million increase in passbook, NOW and money market accounts 
and a $7.3 million increase in certificate of deposit accounts.

     Total borrowings, which decreased by $595,000, or 2.5%, to $22.9 million 
at September 30, 1998 from $23.5 million at December 31, 1997, consisted 
entirely of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (the "FHLB").

     Real estate held for sale increased by $144,000, or 10.9%, to $1.5 
million at September 30, 1998, from $1.3 million at December 31, 1997. The 
increase was the result of the transfer of six single family properties from 
loans to real estate held for sale during the nine-month period, two of which 
were disposed of during the period. Included in real estate held for sale is 
a commercial building in Champaign, Illinois, which was deeded to the Company 
in 1997. The property is fully rented to a retail operation and a local 
community college on multi-year leases. Further negotiations on other loans 
with the borrower resulted in the sale of a subdivision (collateral for one 
of the other loans) to a third party, and the deeding of a single-family 
residence to the Company. The borrower was released from all liability, 
except for a loan secured by the borrower's personal residence. Negotiations 
are continuing on the sale of the commercial building, and the single-family 
residence has been listed for sale with a local realtor. Management does not 
anticipate any material loss on these transactions.

ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

     Management attempts to control fluctuations in net interest income which 
result from an imbalance in the amounts of assets and liabilities that 
reprice during a period of time. The Company attempts to mitigate its 
interest rate exposure, to the extent consistent with the maintenance of an 
adequate interest rate spread, by retaining adjustable rate loans and 
selling, in the secondary market (with servicing typically retained), the 
majority of 30-year fixed-rate mortgage loans, and the majority of 20-year 
fixed-rate mortgage loans bearing a contractual interest rate of less than 
6.75%, which it originates. In addition, the Company has continued, as market 
circumstances permit, to build its portfolio of adjustable rate commercial 
real estate loans. The Company has also increased, as market circumstances 
permit, its origination of installment and home equity consumer loans having 
adjustable or floating interest rates and/or relatively short terms to 
maturity in an effort to control interest rate risk.

     The Company currently does not enter into derivative financial 
instruments including futures, forwards, interest rate risk swaps, option 
contracts, or other financial instruments with similar characteristics. 
However, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance 
sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of 
its customers such as commitments to extend credit and letters of credit.

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOSSES ON LOANS

     The Company's non-performing assets decreased to 0.97% of total assets 
at September 30, 1998 from 1.27% of total assets at December 31, 1997. 
Non-performing assets decreased to $3.9 million at September 30, 1998 
compared to $4.3 million at December 31, 1997. During the nine-month period 
ended September 30, 1998, non-performing construction and development loans 
and restructured debt decreased by $903,000 and $186,000, respectively. These 
decreases were partially offset by increases of $49,000, $253,000, $40,000 
and $169,000 in non-performing one-to-four family loans, non-performing 
commercial real estate loans, non-performing consumer loans and 
non-performing commercial business loans, respectively. In addition, 
foreclosed assets increased by $144,000. The ratio of the allowance for 
losses on loans to non-performing loans increased to 100.0% as of September 
30, 1998 as compared to 75.6% as of December 31, 1997. The increase in this 
ratio, which excludes foreclosed assets and restructured troubled debt, was 
primarily the result of an increase of $295,000 in the allowance for losses 
on loans and a decrease of $392,000 in non-performing loans. The acquisition 
of CCNB contributed to the increase in the allowance for

                                       10

<PAGE>


losses on loans and had the effect of increasing total assets, but had no 
impact on total non-performing assets.

     The Company classified $1.5 million of its assets as Special Mention, 
$4.6 million as Substandard and $114,000 as Loss as of September 30, 1998. No 
assets were classified as Doubtful at September 30, 1998. This represents a 
decrease of $250,000 in the Special Mention category and a net decrease of 
$99,000 in the other categories from the December 31, 1997 totals for 
classified assets. The ratio of classified assets to total assets (including 
items classified as Special Mention) was 1.51% as of September 30, 1998 as 
compared to 1.89% as of December 31, 1997. The ratio of the allowance for 
losses on loans to classified assets increased to 39.5% as of September 30, 
1998 as compared to 32.9% as of December 31, 1997, even though no additional 
provision for losses on loans was made during the first nine months of 1998.

     The allowance for losses on loans is established through a provision for 
losses on loans based on management's evaluation of the risk inherent in the 
loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of its loan activity. 
Such evaluation, which includes a review of all loans with respect to which 
full collectibility may not be reasonably assured, considers the fair value 
of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss 
experience, level of classified loans and other factors that warrant 
recognition in providing for an adequate allowance for losses on loans.

     While management believes that it uses the best information available to 
determine the allowance for losses on loans, unforeseen market conditions 
could result in adjustments to the allowance for losses on loans and net 
earnings could be significantly affected if circumstances differ 
substantially from the assumptions used in establishing the allowance for 
losses on loans.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND 1997

     Net income for the three-month period ended September 30, 1998 was 
$540,000 compared to $736,000 for the same period in 1997. This represents a 
$196,000 decrease in net income for the 1998 period. The decrease in net 
income resulted from a $609,000 increase in general and administrative 
expenses due primarily to expenses relating to the expansion of the 
organization, which was partially offset by increases of $207,000 in net 
interest income and $170,000 in other income.

     Net interest income increased $207,000, or 7.9%, during the three-month 
period ended September 30, 1998, compared to the three-month period ended 
September 30, 1997.

     The table presented on page 19 ("Table I"), sets forth an analysis of 
the Company's net interest income for the three-month periods ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997.

     As Table I indicates, interest income increased $772,000, or 12.4%, to 
$7.0 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 1998 from $6.2 
million for the same period in 1997. The increase in interest income was the 
result of an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets to 
$371.8 million during the 1998 period, primarily resulting from the 
acquisition of CCNB, from $326.5 million during the 1997 period. This was 
partially offset by a decrease in the yield earned on interest-earning assets 
to 7.44% during the 1998 period from 7.54% during the 1997 period. The 
increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets was primarily due 
to increases in balances of loans, investment securities and other 
interest-earning assets during the period.

                                       11

     Interest expense increased $565,000, or 15.8%, to $4.1 million for the 
three-month period ended September 30, 1998 from $3.6 million for the same 
period in 1997. The increase in interest expense was the result of an 
increase in the average outstanding balance of interest-bearing liabilities 
to $363.7 million during the 1998 period from $301.9 million during the 1997 
period. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in the average yield 
on interest-bearing liabilities to 4.52% during the 1998 period from 4.71% 
during the 1997 period. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities 
resulted primarily from the CCNB acquisition. The decrease in the average 
yield on interest-bearing liabilities resulted from the lower average cost 
associated with the CCNB deposits and from a lower cost of borrowings during 
the quarter.

     No provision for losses on loans was deemed necessary during the third 
quarter of 1998 based on management's review of the adequacy of the allowance 
for losses on loans subsequent to the acquisition of $398,000 in allowance 
for losses on loans as part of the purchase of CCNB in January, 1998. The 
provision for losses on loans for the third quarter of 1997 was $21,000.

     Other income for the three-month period ended September 30, 1998 
increased $170,000, or 40.2%, to $595,000 compared to $425,000 for the same 
period in 1997. The increase was attributable to increases of $126,000 in fee 
income, $20,000 in other income, $16,000 in gain on sale of loans held for 
sale and $10,000 in insurance commissions. The increase in fee income was the 
result of the acquisition of CCNB and of an ongoing review of the Company's 
fee structure. The increase in gain on the sale of loans held for sale was 
the result of a higher volume of sales compared to the year earlier period 
due to the level of refinancings.

     Other expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 1998 
increased $609,000 or 30.4%, to $2.6 million from $2.0 million during the 
1997 period. The increase was primarily attributable to expenses associated 
with the ongoing operation of fourteen (14) offices compared to nine (9) 
during the same period in 1997, and to non-capital costs associated with the 
completion of construction of a replacement office in Herscher, Illinois, and 
with the grocery store location in Bradley, Illinois. There were increases of 
$354,000 (33.0%) in compensation and benefits, $49,000 (83.9%) in 
amortization of intangible assets, $73,000 (22.4%) in other expenses, $22,000 
(10.8%) in occupancy costs, $35,000 (29.0%) in furniture and equipment 
expense and $36,000 (54.8%) in data processing expenses.

     Federal income taxes decreased $15,000 to $271,000 for the three-month 
period ended September 30, 1998, compared to $286,000 for the same period in 
1997.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND 1997

     Net income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1998 was $1.9 
million compared to $2.3 million for the same period in 1997. This represents 
a $329,000 decrease in net income for the 1998 period. The decrease in net 
income resulted from increases of $1.5 million in general and administrative 
expenses due primarily to expenses relating to the expansion of the 
organization and $93,000 in federal income tax expense. These items were 
partially offset by increases of $648,000 in net interest income and $667,000 
in other income.

     Net interest income increased $648,000, or 8.0%, during the nine-month 
period ended September 30, 1998, compared to the nine-month period ended 
September 30, 1997.

     The table presented on page 20 ("Table II"), sets forth an analysis of 
the Company's net interest income for the nine-month periods ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997.

     As Table II indicates, interest income increased $2.0 million, or 10.7%, 
to $20.7 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1998 from 
$18.7 million for the same period in 1997. The increase in interest income 
was the result of an increase in the average balance of interest-earning 
assets to $369.4 million during the 1998 period, primarily resulting from the 
acquisition of CCNB, from $330.2 million during the 1997 period. This was 
partially offset by a decrease in the yield earned on interest-earning assets 
to 7.51% during the 1998 period from 7.59% during the 1997 period. The 
increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets was primarily due 
to increases in balances of loans, investment securities and other 
interest-earning assets during the period.

     Interest expense increased $1.3 million, or 12.7%, to $12.0 million for 
the nine-month period ended September 30, 1998 from $10.7 million for the 
same period in 1997. The increase in interest expense was the result of an 
increase in the average outstanding balance of interest-bearing liabilities 
to $355.6 million during the 1998 period from $304.7 million during the 1997 
period. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in the average yield 
on interest-bearing liabilities to 4.53% during the 1998 period from 4.69% 
during the 1997 period. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities 
resulted primarily from the CCNB acquisition. The decrease in the average 
yield on interest-bearing liabilities resulted from the lower average cost 
associated with the CCNB deposits and from a lower cost of borrowings during 
the nine-month period.

     No provision for losses on loans was deemed necessary during the first 
nine months of 1998 based on management's review of the adequacy of the 
allowance for losses on loans subsequent to the acquisition of $398,000 in 
allowance for losses on loans as part of the purchase of CCNB in January, 
1998. The provision for losses on loans for the first nine months of 1997 was 
$21,000.

     Other income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1998 
increased $667,000, or 57.0%, to $1.8 million compared to $1.2 million for 
the same period in 1997. The increase was attributable to increases of 
$497,000 in fee income, $98,000 in gain on sale of loans held for sale, 
$42,000 in other income and $28,000 in gain on sale of real estate. The 
increase in fee income was the result of the acquisition of CCNB and of an 
ongoing review of the Company's fee structure. The increase in gain on the 
sale of loans held for sale was the result of a higher volume of sales 
compared to the year earlier period due to the level of refinancings.

     Other expenses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1998 
increased $1.5 million, or 26.0%, to $7.6 million from $6.1 million during 
the 1997 period. The increase for the nine-month period was primarily 
attributable to 1998 expenses associated with the ongoing operation of the 
former CCNB offices, to non-capital costs associated with the data processing 
conversion of the records of CCNB, as well as to the return of item 
processing to an in-house environment, the construction of a new 
(replacement) office in Herscher, and new office locations in Urbana, a 
grocery store in Coal City and a grocery store in Bradley. There were 
increases of $819,000 (25.0%) in compensation and benefits, $130,000 (74.6%) 
in amortization of intangible assets, $231,000 (23.5%) in other expenses, 
$119,000 (21.1%) in occupancy costs and $70,000 (42.2%) in advertising.

     Federal income taxes increased $93,000 to $975,000 for the nine-month 
period ended September 30, 1998, compared to $882,000 for the same period in 
1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company maintains a certain level of cash and other liquid assets to 
fund normal volumes of loan commitments, deposit withdrawals and other 
obligations. The Office of Thrift Supervision (the "OTS") regulations 
currently require each savings association to maintain, for each calendar 
quarter, an average daily balance of liquid assets (including cash and cash 
equivalent investments) equal to at least 4% of its liquidity base as of the 
end of the preceding calendar quarter or the average daily balance of its 
liquidity base during the preceding calendar quarter. The liquidity base 
consists of net withdrawable accounts plus borrowings repayable in 12 months 
or less. At September 30, 1998, the Company's liquidity ratio was 26.8%, 
which was well in excess of the minimum regulatory requirement.

     The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits and proceeds from 
payments of principal and interest on loans and the sale or maturity of 
investment securities and mortgage-backed securities. Management considers 
current liquidity and additional sources of funds adequate to meet 
outstanding liquidity needs.

     Federally insured savings banks, such as the Bank, are required by 
federal law and OTS regulations to maintain minimum levels of regulatory 
capital. The OTS has established the following minimum capital requirements: 
a risk-based capital ratio, a core capital ratio and a tangible capital 
ratio. In addition to these minimum regulatory capital requirements, another 
provision of federal law grants the OTS broad power to take prompt corrective 
action to resolve the problems of undercapitalized institutions. The OTS 
regulations implementing this statutory authority (the "prompt corrective 
action regulations") establish other capital thresholds which determine 
whether an institution will be deemed to be "well capitalized", "adequately 
capitalized", "undercapitalized", "significantly undercapitalized" or 
"critically undercapitalized". The capital category to which an institution 
is assigned in turn determines the actions the OTS may take to address the 
institution's undercapitalization. The capital regulations of the OTS exclude 
the effect of SFAS 115 for the purpose of calculating regulatory capital.

     The capital regulations currently require tangible capital of at least 
1.5% of adjusted total assets (as defined by regulation). Under the prompt 
corrective action regulations, however, an institution with a ratio of 
tangible capital to total assets below 2.0% is deemed to be "critically 
undercapitalized" and, as such, will be subject to a variety of sanctions 
under the prompt corrective action regulations, including, without 
limitation, limits on asset growth, restrictions on activities and, 
ultimately, the appointment of a receiver. Tangible capital generally 
includes common stockholders' equity and retained income and certain 
non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock and related income less intangible 
assets (other than specified amounts of mortgage servicing rights) and 
certain non- includable investments in subsidiaries.

     The capital regulations also currently require core capital equal to at 
least 3.0% of adjusted total assets (as defined by regulation). Under the 
prompt corrective action regulations, however, an institution that with a 
ratio of core capital to adjusted total assets of 3.0% will be deemed to be 
"adequately capitalized" only if the institution also has a composite rating 
of "1" under the Uniform Financial Institutions Rating System ("UFIRS"). All 
other institutions must maintain a minimum ratio of core capital to adjusted 
total assets of 4.0% in order to be deemed to be "adequately capitalized", 
and an institution, regardless of its UFIRS rating, will be deemed to be 
"well capitalized" only if it maintains a ratio of core capital to adjusted 
total assets of at least 5.0%. If an institution fails to remain at least 
"adequately capitalized", the OTS may impose one or more of a variety of 
sanctions on the institution to address its undercapitalized condition, 
including, without limitation, requiring the

                                       14

<PAGE>


submission of a capital plan, restricting growth and restricting the payment 
of capital distributions (such as dividends). Core capital generally consists 
of tangible capital plus specified amounts of certain intangible assets.

     The OTS risk-based requirement currently requires associations to have 
total capital of at least 8.0% of risk-weighted assets. In order to be 
considered "well capitalized" under the prompt corrective action regulations, 
however, an institution must maintain a ratio of total capital to total 
risk-weighted assets of at least 10.0% and a ratio of core capital to total 
risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%. Total capital consists of core capital 
plus supplementary capital, which consists of, among other things, maturing 
capital instruments, such as subordinated debt and mandatorily redeemable 
preferred stock, and a portion of the Bank's general allowance for losses on 
loans.

     As of September 30, 1998, the Bank exceeded all current minimum 
regulatory capital standards and was deemed to be "well capitalized" for 
purposes of the OTS's prompt corrective action regulations. At September 30, 
1998, the Bank's tangible capital was $27.5 million, or 7.0%, of adjusted 
total assets, which exceeded the 1.5% requirement by $21.6 million and 
exceeded the 2.0% "critically undercapitalized" threshold by $19.7 million. 
In addition, at September 30, 1998, the Bank had core capital of $27.5 
million, or 7.0%, of adjusted total assets, which exceeded the 4.0% 
requirement by $11.8 million and exceeded the 5.0% "well capitalized" 
threshold by $7.8 million. The Bank had risk-based capital of $29.8 million 
at September 30, 1998, or 13.6%, of risk-adjusted assets, which exceeded the 
minimum risk-based capital requirement by $12.2 million and exceeded the 
10.0% "well capitalized" threshold by $7.8 million. Additionally, the Bank's 
$27.5 million of core capital equaled 12.5% of total risk-weighted assets, 
which exceeded the 6.0% "well capitalized" threshold by $14.3 million.

STOCK REPURCHASE

     On January 13, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the 
repurchase during 1998 of up to 137,000 shares of its common stock. During 
the nine-month period ending September 30, 1998, 6,500 shares of common stock 
were repurchased at a cost of $168,000. Through September 30, 1998, a total 
of 415,857 shares of common stock of the Company had been purchased under the 
current and previously completed repurchase programs at a total cost of $8.1 
million. As of September 30, 1998, the Company held 376,512 shares of its 
common stock as treasury stock. During the period from September 30, 1998 
through November 6, 1998, the Company repurchased 7,150 shares of common 
stock at a cost of $179,000.

EXERCISE OF STOCK OPTIONS

     During the third quarter of 1998, there were no stock options exercised. 
On October 13, 1998, options on 350 shares of common stock were exercised. No 
other notice was received between September 30, 1998 and November 6, 1998 
from holders of options of their intent to exercise options.

DIVIDENDS

     In January, 1995, the Company began a regular quarterly dividend program
and declared the first

                                       15

<PAGE>


cash dividend since becoming a public company. During 1995 and 1996, cash 
dividends of $.10 per share were paid each quarter. During 1997 and for the 
first three quarters of 1998, cash dividends of $.12 per share were paid each 
quarter. On October 17, 1998, a cash dividend of $.12 per share was declared 
payable on December 1, 1998 to stockholders of record as of November 13, 
1998. Future dividends will depend primarily upon earnings, financial 
condition and need for funds, as well as restrictions imposed by regulatory 
authorities regarding dividend payments and capital requirements.

RECENT REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS

     The federal banking regulators recently issued guidelines establishing 
minimum safety and soundness standards for achieving Year 2000 compliance. 
The guidelines, which took effect October 15, 1998 and apply to all FDIC 
insured depository institutions, establish standards for developing and 
managing Year 2000 project plans, testing remediation efforts and planning 
for contingencies. The guidelines are based upon guidance previously issued 
by the agencies under the auspices of the Federal Financial Institutions 
Examination Council (the "FFIEC"), but are not intended to replace or 
supplant the FFIEC guidance which will continue to apply to all federally 
insured depository institutions.

     The guidelines were issued under section 39 of the Federal Deposit 
Insurance Act, as amended (the "FDIA"), which requires the federal banking 
regulators to establish standards for the safe and sound operation of 
federally insured depository institutions. Under section 39 of the FDIA, if 
an institution fails to meet any of the standards established in the 
guidelines, the institution's primary federal regulator may require the 
institution to submit a plan for achieving compliance. If an institution 
fails to submit an acceptable compliance plan, or fails in any material 
respect to implement a compliance plan that has been accepted by its primary 
federal regulator, the regulator is required to issue an order directing the 
institution to cure the deficiency. Such an order is enforceable in court in 
the same manner as a cease and desist order. Until the deficiency cited in 
the regulator's order is cured, the regulator may restrict the institution's 
rate of growth, require the institution to take any action the regulator 
deems appropriate under the circumstances. In addition to the enforcement 
procedures established in section 39 of the FDIA, noncompliance with the 
standards established by the guidelines may also be grounds for other 
enforcement action by the federal banking regulators, including cease and 
desist orders and civil money penalty assessments.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

     The Year 2000 has posed a unique set of challenges to those industries 
reliant on information technology. As a result of methods employed by early 
programmers, many software applications and operational programs may be 
unable to distinguish the Year 2000 from the Year 1900. If not effectively 
addressed, this problem could result in the production of inaccurate data, 
or, in the worst cases, the inability of the systems to continue to function 
altogether. Financial institutions are particularly vulnerable due to the 
industry's dependence on electronic data processing systems. In 1997, the 
Company started the process of identifying the hardware and software issues 
required to be addressed to assure Year 2000 compliance. The Company began by 
assessing the issues related to the Year 2000 and the potential for those 
issues to adversely affect the Company's operations and those of its 
subsidiaries.

     Since that time, the Company has established a Year 2000 management 
committee to deal with

                                       16

<PAGE>


this issue. The management committee meets with and utilizes various 
representatives from key areas throughout the organization to aid in analysis 
and testing. It is the mission of this committee to identify areas subject to 
complications related to the Year 2000 and to initiate remedial measures 
designed to eliminate any adverse effects on the Company's operations. The 
committee has identified all mission-critical software and hardware that may 
be adversely affected by the Year 2000 and has required vendors to represent 
that the systems and products provided are or will be Year 2000 compliant.

     The Company licenses all software used in conducting its business from 
third party vendors. None of the Company's software has been internally 
developed. The Company has developed a comprehensive list of all software, 
all hardware and all service providers used by the Company. Every vendor has 
been contacted regarding the Year 2000 issue, and the Company continues to 
closely track the progress each vendor is making in resolving the problems 
associated with the issue. The vendor of the primary software in use at the 
Company released its Year 2000 complaint software in July 1998. Testing 
standards were formulated and comprehensive testing is now underway with an 
estimated completion date for testing of December 31, 1998. At November 1, 
1998, the testing was sixty percent complete, with no defects reported to the 
software vendor. The Company actively takes part in a peer users group to aid 
the testing process. Users of the primary software meet monthly to discuss 
Year 2000 testing issues and results. In addition, the Company continues to 
monitor all other major vendors of services to the Company for Year 2000 
issues in order to avoid shortages of supplies and services in the coming 
months. The Company has not had any material delay regarding its information 
systems projects as a result of the Year 2000 project.

     The Company has two material third party relationships, and thus 
potential exposure to Year 2000 issues. The Company's main commercial banking 
relationship is with the LaSalle National Bank in Chicago. LaSalle 
newsletters and correspondence indicate substantial progress with Year 2000 
readiness. The Company also has a material relationship with the Federal Home 
Loan Bank of Chicago, whose newsletters also indicate substantial progress 
with Year 2000 readiness.

     There are four third party utilities with which the Company has an 
important relationship, i.e. Ameritech and MCI (phone service), Commonwealth 
Edison (electricity) and Northern Illinois Gas (natural gas for heating). The 
Company has not identified any practical, long-term alternatives to relying 
on these companies for basic utility services. The Company's main office 
disaster plan has included a generator for short term power outages and will 
be used to keep the main office running in case of power outages caused by 
Year 2000 issues. In the event that the utilities significantly curtailed or 
interrupted their services to the Company, it would have a significant 
adverse effect on the Company's ability to conduct its business.

     The Company also has tested such things as vault doors, alarm systems, 
networks, etc. and is not aware of any significant problems with such systems.

     The Company's cumulative costs of the Year 2000 project through the 
third quarter of 1998 have been $49,000. After capitalization of purchased 
software and hardware, this represents 2.7% of the annual information systems 
budget. The estimated total cost of the Year 2000 project is $73,000. This 
includes costs to upgrade equipment specifically for the purpose of Year 2000 
compliance and certain administrative expenditures. After capitalization of 
purchased software and hardware, this represents 5.1% of the annual 
information systems budget. At the present time, no situations that will 
require material cost expenditures to become fully compliant have been 
identified. However, the Year 2000 problem is pervasive and complex and can 
potentially affect any computer process. Accordingly, no assurance can be 
given that Year 2000 compliance can be achieved without

                                       17

additional unanticipated expenditures and uncertainties that might affect 
future financial results.

     It is not possible at this time to quantify the estimated future costs 
due to possible business disruption caused by vendors, suppliers, customers, 
or even the possible loss of electric power or phone service; however, such 
costs could be substantial.

     The Company is committed to a plan for achieving compliance, focusing 
not only on its own data processing systems, but also on its loan customers. 
The management committee has taken steps to educate and assist its customers 
with identifying their Year 2000 compliance problems. In addition, the 
management committee has proposed policy and procedure changes to help 
identify potential risks to the Company and to gain an understanding of how 
customers are managing the risks associated with the Year 2000. The Company 
is assessing the impact, if any, the Year 2000 will have on its credit risk 
and loan underwriting. In connection with potential credit risk related to 
the Year 2000 issue, the Company has contacted its large commercial loan 
customers regarding their level of preparedness for the Year 2000.

     The Company has developed contingency plans for various Year 2000 
problems and continues to revise those plans based on testing results and 
vendor notifications.
