FROM THE FILING ON SCHEDULE 13D DATED JUNE 27, 2000, AS FILED WITH THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION BY QUEENS COUNTY BANCORP, INC. ON JULY 6,
2000, WITH RESPECT TO THE COMMON STOCK, PAR VALUE $.01 PER SHARE, OF HAVEN
BANCORP, INC., A DELAWARE CORPORATION. ALL OTHER ITEMS REMAIN UNCHANGED. UNLESS
OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, ALL DEFINED TERMS USED HEREIN HAVE THE MEANING PREVIOUSLY
ASCRIBED TO THEM IN THE SCHEDULE 13D.

Item 1.   Security and Issuer.

         This statement relates to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share
("Common Stock"), of Haven Bancorp, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), the principal executive offices of which are located at 615 Merrick
Avenue, Westbury, New York 11590.

Item 2.   Identity and Background.

         (a)-(c) and (f) This statement is being filed by New York Community
Bancorp, Inc., formerly known as Queens County Bancorp, Inc., a Delaware
corporation registered as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company
Act of 1956, as amended ("NYCB"). The principal business offices of NYCB are
located at 38-25 Main Street, Flushing, New York 11354. NYCB has one principal
banking subsidiary, Queens County Savings Bank, the assets of which currently
constitute substantially all of the assets of NYCB. The names of the directors
and executive officers of NYCB and their respective business addresses,
citizenship and present principal occupations or employment, as well as the
names, principal businesses and addresses of any corporations and other
organizations in which such employment is conducted, are set forth on Schedule I
hereto, which Schedule is incorporated herein by reference.

         (d)-(e) Neither NYCB, nor, to the best of its knowledge, any of the
persons listed in Schedule I hereto has during the last five years been
convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
misdemeanors). Neither NYCB nor, to the best of its knowledge, any of the
persons listed in Schedule I hereto has during the last five years been a party
to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent
jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment,
decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or
mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any
violation with respect to such laws.

                                      -3-



Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

         Between July 25, 2000 and November 21, 2000, NYCB purchased 165,000
shares of Haven Common Stock in the open market. The funds used to make these
acquisitions were derived from working capital.

Item 4.   Purpose of the Transaction.

         (a)-(j) NYCB is seeking to acquire the entire equity interest in the
Company pursuant to the proposed Merger, which is described in more detail in
the Schedule 13D filed with the Commission by Queens County Bancorp, Inc. on
July 6, 2000. Under the Merger Agreement, each share of the Company's Common
Stock will be exchanged for 1.04 shares of common stock of NYCB. The
transactions reported hereunder are intended to assist in effecting the Merger,
which is expected to be consummated on November 30, 2000.

Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Company.

         (a) NYCB directly owns 165,000 shares of Common Stock, which have been
acquired in a series of open market transactions since July 25, 2000. As
described more fully in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D filed by Queens County
Bancorp, Inc. on July 6, 2000, NYCB may also be deemed to be the beneficial
owner of the Option Shares. The Option Agreement provides that Queens County may
exercise the Option only upon the happening of one or more events, none of which
has occurred. If the Option were exercised in full, the Option Shares would
represent approximately 16.6% of the currently outstanding Common Stock (after
giving effect to the issuance of such Option Shares). NYCB has no right to vote
or dispose of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option unless and until
such time as the Option is exercised. NYCB expressly disclaims beneficial
ownership of such shares. Except with respect to Mr. Dominick Ciampa, a Queens
County director who beneficially owns approximately 4000 shares of Common Stock
through an investment retirement account, to the best knowledge of Queens
County, none of the persons listed in Schedule I hereto beneficially owns any
shares of Common Stock.

         (b) NYCB has the power to vote or to direct the vote of, and has the
power to dispose of or direct the disposition of 165,000 shares of Common Stock
specified in paragraph (a). If NYCB were to exercise the Option, it would have
sole power to vote and, subject to the terms of

                                      -4-



the Option Agreement, sole power to direct the disposition of the shares of
Common Stock covered thereby.

         (c) NYCB acquired 165,000 shares of Common Stock in a series of open
market transactions between July 25, 2000 and November 21, 2000. The Option was
acquired in connection with the Merger Agreement. See Item 4 of the Queens
County Bancorp, Inc. Schedule 13D filed on July 6, 2000.

         To the knowledge of NYCB, none of the persons listed in Schedule I
hereto has effected any transactions in Common Stock during the past 60 days.

         (d) None.

         (e) Not applicable.

Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or
          Relationships with Respect to Securities of the
          Company.

         Except as described in Item 4 and Item 5 hereof, neither NYCB nor, to
the best of its knowledge, any of the persons listed on Schedule I hereto, has
any contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship with any other person
with respect to any securities of the Company, including the transfer or voting
of any of the securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option
arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or
losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.

     Queens County Bancorp, Inc. and Haven Bancorp, Inc. (incorporated herein by
