ITEM 4.           OWNERSHIP.

         (a)      Amount beneficially owned:             810,539

                  On February 11, 1998 Mr. Masferrer filed a Schedule 13G
                  disclosing, among other things, that prior to the public
                  offering of Hamilton Bancorp Inc. Common Stock in 1997 he had
                  made a gift of 403,000 shares of Hamilton Bancorp Inc. Common
                  Stock in trust for the benefit of his and his wife's children.
                  The terms of the trusts required the return of some of the
                  shares of Hamilton Bancorp Inc. Common Stock to Mr. Masferrer
                  under certain circumstances. In addition, in 1997 most of the
                  beneficiaries were minors living in his household or otherwise
                  supported by him. Although Mr. Masferrer disclaimed beneficial
                  interest in the trusts in the 1998 Schedule 13G filing, for
                  the foregoing reasons he included such shares in his filing in
                  an overabundance of caution.

                  In 1998 and 1999 under the terms of the trusts an aggregate of
                  90,911 shares of Hamilton Bancorp Inc. Common Stock were
                  returned to Mr. Masferrer. Under the terms of the trusts, Mr.
                  Masferrer no longer has any reversionary rights to any of the

                  trust assets upon completion of these returns of shares. In
                  addition, by the fall of 1999 most of the beneficiaries of the
                  trusts are of legal age and no longer reside in his household.
                  Mr. Masferrer has no rights, directly or beneficially, to
                  acquire, dispose or vote the assets of the trusts.
                  Accordingly, Mr. Masferrer will no longer include such shares
                  in his Schedule 13G and Section 16 filings with the Securities
                  and Exchange Commission.

                  The 810,539 shares of Hamilton Bancorp Inc. Common Stock owned
                  by Mr. Masferrer include (i) 48,750 shares of Common Stock
                  issuable upon exercise of options granted to Mr. Masferrer
                  under the Hamilton Bancorp Inc. 1993 Stock Option Plan for Key
                  Employees and Directors and (ii) 17,687 shares of Common Stock
                  held by Mr. Masferrer and his wife, Maura A. Acosta, as joint
                  tenants with rights of survivorship.

         (b)      Percent of class:                                        8.0%

         (c)      Number of shares as to which such person has:

                  (i)   Sole power to vote or to direct the
                        vote                                            744,102

                  (ii)  Shared power to vote or to direct the
                        vote                                             17,687

                  (iii) Sole power to dispose or to direct the
                        disposition of                                  792,852

                  (iv)  Shared power to dispose or to direct the
                        disposition of                                   17,687

ITEM 5.           OWNERSHIP OF FIVE PERCENT OR LESS OF A
                  CLASS.                                         Not Applicable
