Fidelity Federal Bancorp
and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
o Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies followed by Fidelity Federal Bancorp
("Fidelity") and its wholly owned subsidiaries for interim financial reporting
are consistent with the accounting policies followed for annual financial
reporting. All adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the
results for the periods reported, consist only of normal recurring adjustments,
and have been included in the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed
financial statements. The results of operations for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of those expected for the
remainder of the year.
o Stockholders' Equity
In connection with Fidelity's second debt and equity rights offering completed
January 31, 1995, Fidelity has reserved 346,500 shares of its common stock for
issuance upon exercise of 1,500 outstanding warrants. Each warrant represents
the right to purchase 231 shares of common stock. The warrants were valued at
$100 per warrant, carry an exercise price of $8.93 per share, and expire on
January 31, 2005. At September 30, 1999, a total of 337,029 of the shares
originally reserved had been issued and 9,471 remained reserved and unissued.
In connection with Fidelity's first debt and equity rights offering completed on
April 30, 1994, Fidelity has reserved 415,500 shares of its common stock for
issuance upon exercise of 1,500 outstanding warrants. Each warrant represents
the right to purchase 277 shares of common stock. The warrants were valued at
$100 per warrant, carry an exercise price of $6.22 per share, and expire on
April 30, 2004. At September 30, 1999, a total of 397,218 of the shares
originally reserved had been issued and 18,282 remained reserved and unissued.
o Cash Dividend
Fidelity's dividend policy is to pay cash or distribute stock dividends when its
Board of Directors deems it to be appropriate, taking into account Fidelity's
financial condition and results of operations, economic and market conditions,
industry standards, and other factors, including regulatory capital requirements
of its savings bank subsidiary. Fidelity is not subject to any regulatory
restrictions on payments to its stockholders. Fidelity's primary source of
income is dividends from United Fidelity Bank ("United").
United has entered into a Supervisory Agreement (Agreement) with the OTS. One of
the provisions of the Agreement restricts the payments of dividends from United
to Fidelity without prior written OTS approval. The OTS, in 1999, permitted the
payment of dividends to assist Fidelity in meeting interest payments on its
outstanding debt; however, there can be no assurance that this approval will be
granted going forward. Fidelity is uncertain when it will pay dividends in the
future and the amount of such dividends, if any.
o Company Subsidiaries
United and Village Affordable Housing Corporation are two subsidiaries of
Fidelity. United is a federally chartered savings bank, and is regulated by the
Office of Thrift Supervision. Village Affordable Housing Corporation was formed
during the third quarter of fiscal 1998 for the purpose of holding interests in
real estate housing, and is currently inactive.
7
<PAGE>
United's subsidiaries, Village Housing Corporation and Village Management
Corporation (the "Affordable Housing Group"), and Village Capital Corporation
have been involved in various aspects of financing, owning, developing,
building, renting and managing affordable housing projects. Currently, they are
involved only in the business of owning, renting and managing affordable housing
properties. Village Capital Corporation has earned fees by providing real estate
mortgage banking services to unaffiliated borrowers since 1994. Another
subsidiary of United, Village Insurance Corporation, is engaged in the business
of selling various insurance products.
Fidelity continues to review the profitability of the remaining subsidiaries to
determine its future impact on the Company's business plan. Representatives of
Village Capital Corporation will broker loans as opportunities arise. Village
Housing Corporation and Village Management Corporation continue to be fully
operational.
o Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which provides a
comprehensive and consistent standard for the recognition and measurement of
derivatives and hedging activities. The provisions of this statement were to
become effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The effective
date of the statement has been delayed by Statement No. 137 to fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. Fidelity does not expect the statement to have a
material impact on Fidelity's financial condition or results of operations and
plans on adopting it on July 1, 2000.
o Other Restrictions
United entered into a Supervisory Agreement with the OTS on February 3, 1999
which is in effect until terminated, modified or suspended by the OTS.
Under the terms of the Agreement, United must develop and submit to the OTS for
approval a strategic plan which includes, at a minimum, capital targets;
specific strategies; the completion of quarterly projections for a three-year
period; concentration limits for all assets; a plan for reducing United's
concentrations of high risk assets; review of infrastructure, staffing and
expertise with respect to each area of United's operations; and capital
planning. The strategic plan was submitted and approved by the OTS.
In addition, United must, among other things, take other specified actions
within specified time frames. These actions include, among others; the
development of and adherence to a written plan for the reduction of classified
and criticized assets to specified levels; maintenance of sufficient allowances
for loan and lease losses; quarterly reporting to the OTS relating to classified
assets and workout plans; restriction of its growth in total assets to an amount
not in excess of an amount equal to the net interest credited on deposit
liabilities without prior OTS approval; limiting growth of its consumer loan
portfolio to an amount not in excess of 25 percent of its total assets;
development of a written plan to divest all real estate held for development;
adoption of policies and procedures designed to avoid potential conflicts of
interest; development of policies and procedures to increase liquidity; adoption
of a policy with respect to its mortgage brokerage activity, which would address
its operation and methods for risk management; development of a policy to
administer the general partnerships held by Village Housing Corporation; and
maintenance of a fully staffed and functioning internal audit and independent
loan review processes.
United is also prohibited from taking certain actions without prior approval,
including but not limited to: investing in, purchasing, or committing to make or
purchase any additional commercial loans or commercial real estate loans;
requesting permission from the OTS to engage in additional commercial loan
activity until United has hired an experienced loan staff and credit analyst;
refinancing or extending classified or criticized commercial loans without the
prior approval of the OTS; engaging in "sub prime" consumer lending activities;
making capital distributions, including dividends to Fidelity; making any
additional equity investments; developing any real estate without specific
approval of the OTS; acquiring any additional real estate for future
development; selling any asset to an affiliated party without prior written
approval of the OTS; engaging in any new activities not included in the
strategic plan; and, refinancing or extending any non-classified or criticized
commercial loan if additional funds are extended.
8
<PAGE>
United is also required to obtain OTS approval prior to adding or replacing any
director or senior executive officer. United is also prohibited, without prior
OTS approval, from entering into any contract with any executive officer or
director which would require a "golden parachute" payment and from increasing
the executive benefit package in an amount in excess of the annual cost of
living. United also developed a plan to reduce employee turnover, build an
experienced staff, and provide for management succession.
Management of United has taken or is refraining from taking, as applicable, the
actions requested by the OTS and at September 30, 1999, was in compliance with
the conditions of its Supervisory Agreement.
o Segment Information
Fidelity operates principally in two industries, banking and real estate
development and management. Through United, Fidelity offers traditional banking
products, such as checking, savings and certificates of deposit, as well as
mortgage, commercial and consumer loans. Through the Affordable Housing Group,
Fidelity is or was involved in various aspects of developing, building, renting
and managing affordable housing units.
Banking revenue consists primarily of interest and fee income, while real estate
development and management fee income consists primarily of real estate
management, investment banking, development and other fees. All revenue is
earned in the United States.
Operating profit is total revenue less operating expenses. In computing
operating profit, income taxes have been deducted.
Identified assets are principally those used in each segment and are all held in
the United States. Real estate development and management activities conducted
by Fidelity are not asset intensive.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition
Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain matters discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are
"forward-looking statements" intended to qualify for the safe harbors from
liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such because the
context of the statement will include words such as Fidelity "believes",
"anticipates", "expects", "estimates" or words of similar import. Similarly,
statements that describe Fidelity's future plans, objectives or goals are also
forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to
certain risks and uncertainties which are described in close proximity to such
statements and which could cause actual results to differ materially from those
anticipated as of the date of this report. Shareholders, potential investors and
other readers are urged to consider these factors in evaluating the
forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such
forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are
only made as of the date of this report and Fidelity undertakes no obligation to
publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or
circumstances.
o Results of Operations
The net income for the three months ended September 30, 1999 was $104,000,
compared to $336,000 for the same period last year. Basic and diluted net income
per share was $.03 per share for the three months ended September 30, 1999,
compared to $0.11 per share in 1998. Interest income decreased $893,000 from the
prior year primarily due to a decrease in higher yielding multifamily and
commercial real estate loans, and a reduction in residential mortgage loans, due
to refinancing activity. Interest expense decreased approximately $533,000 due
to the maturity of higher interest bearing brokered deposits that were partially
replaced with retail deposits. As a result of these maturities and payoffs,
Fidelity's assets have decreased $34.9 million from September 30, 1998 to $164.8
million at September 30, 1999. Non-interest income for the three months ended
September 30, 1999, decreased $407,000 from the three months ended September 30,
1998 primarily due to a decrease in gains on sales of loans, release fees, and
agent fees. Non-interest expense decreased $539,000 to $1.3 million due
primarily to the reversal of a $500,000 letter of credit provision due to an
improvement in the operating results and cash flows of certain of those
properties for which the reserves are recorded.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income, Fidelity's largest component of
income, represents the difference between interest and fees earned on loans,
investments and other interest earning assets, and interest paid on interest
bearing liabilities. It also measures how effectively management has balanced
and allocated Fidelity's interest rate-sensitive assets and liabilities. Net
interest income for the three months ended September 30, 1999, was $905,000
compared to $1.3 million for the three month period ending September 30, 1998, a
decrease of $360,000. These decreases are primarily attributable to decreases in
earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.
The net interest margin is a percentage computed by dividing net interest income
on a fully taxable equivalent basis ("FTE") by average earning assets and
represents a measure of basic earnings on interest bearing assets held by
Fidelity. The reduction in net interest income in fiscal 2000 was primarily due
to a decrease in average earning assets of $34.0 million, which was offset by a
decrease in average interest-bearing liabilities of $20.8 million. For the three
months ended September 30, 1999 interest income was $3.0 million compared to
$3.9 million for the three months September 30, 1998, a decrease of
approximately $900,000 or about 23.1%. Interest expense for the three months
ended September 30, 1999 was $2.1 million compared to $2.6 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1998, a decrease of approximately $0.5 million or
19.2%. The reduction in average earning assets was attributable to a significant
number of multifamily and commercial loan payoffs, as well as payoffs on
residential real estate mortgage loans. The average balance of agent-acquired
certificates of deposit, which had an average yield of 6.02% for the three
months ended September 30, 1998, was reduced from $35.0 million to $20.8 million
at September 30, 1999. The average yield decreased to 5.97% for the three months
ended September 30, 1999. The net interest margin for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 decreased to 2.31% from 2.48% at June 30, 1999 and 2.76% at
September 30, 1998. The decrease in the net interest margin, is the result of
loan payoffs on fixed rate 1-4 family loans and the sale of new loan production
on the secondary market. Commercial loans and higher yielding multi-family loans
continue to decrease due to refinancing and payoffs. This will likely be a
continuing trend during the term of the Supervisory Agreement between United and
the OTS, as certain lending activities are restricted.

Asset/Liability Management--Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about
Market Risk
Fidelity is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest
bearing liabilities, primarily deposits with short and medium term maturities,
mature or reprice at different rates than its interest-earning assets. Although
having liabilities that mature or reprice less frequently will be beneficial in
times of rising interest rates, such an asset/liability structure will result in
lower net income during periods of declining interest rates, unless off-set by
other factors.
The OTS utilizes a model, the "Office of Thrift Supervision Net Portfolio Value"
("NPV") model, which uses a net market value methodology to measure the interest
rate risk exposure of savings associations. Under this model, an institution's
"normal" level of interest rate risk in the event of an assumed change in
interest rates is a decrease in the institution's NPV in an amount not exceeding
2% of the present value of its assets. Savings associations with over $300
million in assets or less than 12% risk-based capital ratio are required to file
the OTS Schedule CMR. Data from Schedule CMR is used by the OTS to calculate
changes in NPV (and the related "normal" level of interest rate risk) based upon
certain interest rate changes (discussed below). Associations which do not meet
either of the filing requirements are not required to file OTS Schedule CMR, but
may do so voluntarily. United voluntarily submits a CMR quarterly to the OTS.
Under the regulation, associations which must file are required to take a
deduction (the interest rate risk capital component) from their total capital
available to calculate their risk based capital requirement if their interest
rate exposure is greater than "normal". The amount of that deduction is one-half
of the difference between (a) the institution's actual calculated exposure to a
200 basis point interest rate increase or decrease (whichever results in the
greater pro forma decrease in NPV) and (b) its "normal" level of exposure which
is 2% of the present value of its assets.
Presented below, at June 30, 1999 and September 30, 1998, is an analysis
performed by the OTS of United's interest rate risk as measured by changes in
NPV for instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts in the yield curve, in 100
basis point increments, up and down 300 basis points. At June 30, 1999 and
September 30, 1998, 2% of the present value of United's assets was approximately
$3.4 million and $3.9 million. Because the interest rate risk of a 200 basis
point increase in market rates (which was greater than the interest rate risk of
a 200 basis point decrease and the opposite at September 30, 1998) was $1.8
million at June 30, 1999 and $1.4 million at September 30, 1998, United would
not have been required to make a deduction from its total capital available to
calculate its risk based capital requirement. The slight increase in interest
rate risk from 1999 to 1998 is due to an increase in the spread of expected cash
flows from assets and liabilities. United's sensitivity to interest rate changes
is in the fourth percentile of all OTS regulated entities at June 30, 1999, the
most recent period that United has information.

As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are
inherent in the methods of analysis presented above. For example, although
certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to
repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market rates. Also,
the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in
advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types
may lag behind changes in market rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as
adjustable-rate loans, have features which restrict changes in interest rates on
a short-term basis and over the life of the assets. Further, in the event of a
change in interest rates, expected rates of prepayments on loans and early
withdrawals from certificates could likely deviate significantly from those
assumed in calculating the table.
Non-interest income. Non-interest income for the quarter ended September 30,
1999, was $488,000 compared to $895,000 for the same period in 1998, a decrease
of $407,000.

Fidelity's level of activity in Section 42 real estate activities has continued
to decrease. Fidelity has recorded no Section 42 real estate development fees
over the past two years. Fee income from management activities decreased $13,000
primarily due to a reduction in the fee percentage from 5% to 4% collected on
partnerships for which Village Housing Corporation is the general partner.
Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $21,000 from last year primarily
due to the reduction in deposits of $31.1 million. Net gains on the sale of
single-family loans decreased $39,000 over the same period in 1998, an increased
loan rate environment has resulted in less sales. Servicing fees on loans sold
increased $9,000 due to an increase in the number of mortgage loans being
serviced by Fidelity compared to the prior year. Other income decreased $114,000
from last year due primarily to the repayment of expenses incurred in connection
with a payoff on a multifamily loan last year and consulting fees.
United has participated in an arrangement in which automobile loans are
originated on behalf of another organization for the last three fiscal years.
Agent fee income, which represents earned fees from these transactions,
decreased $167,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 compared to the same

year. In January 1999, the head of United's consumer loan division and key
members of the consumer loan division staff left United to accept employment
with a competitor. United has been unable to continue to compete in this market
segment since the departure of the staff. As such, United's revenue from
consumer loans has been sharply reduced. During the fourth quarter of fiscal
1999, United hired a manager and staff to resume this lending activity. United
commenced certain types of consumer lending, such as home equity lending as of
June 30, 1999. United has fully resumed indirect lending during the first
quarter of fiscal 2000, and has retained all of the loans originated within its
portfolio.
Provision for Loan Losses
Fidelity makes provisions for possible loan losses in amounts estimated to be
sufficient to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level considered
necessary by management to absorb possible losses in the loan portfolios. The
provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998
were $75,000 each for the respective periods.

During the quarter ended September 30, 1999, Fidelity charged-off $1.1 million
of multifamily loans that were previously reserved for in fiscal 1998. The ratio
of non-performing loans to the allowance for loan losses was 178.2% at September
30, 1999 compared to 143.7% at June 30, 1999 and 121.7% at September 30, 1998.
The increase in non-performing loans is due to one large multifamily loan to an
outside borrower which is past due at September 30, 1999 pending its
refinancing. This loan was subsequently paid off in October 1999. The ratio of
non-performing loans to the allowance for loan losses, excluding this loan, was
31.9% at September 30, 1999.
Non-interest expense. Non-interest expense for the quarter ended September 30,
1999, was $1.3 million compared to $1.8 million for the same period in 1998, a
decrease of $500,000.

</TABLE>
Salaries and employee benefits decreased $29,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999, compared to the same period last year. Salaries decreased
$21,000 primarily due to staffing replacements and attrition. During the
quarter, as a result of an overall improvement in operating results of
Fidelity's affordable housing portfolio, and specifically, certain of those
projects for which the reserves are recorded, Fidelity reduced its reserve for
letters of credit and recognized income of $500,000. The $500,000 is recorded as
a credit in non-interest expense, where the original expense was recognized.
Legal and professional fees increased $20,000 over last year due to additional
costs incurred for workout activities with respect to various classified assets.
Occupancy and equipment expenses decreased by $5,000 and $1,000 respectively,
compared to the prior year as management continues to closely monitor expenses.
Data processing expenses increased $22,000 due to an increase in year 2000
expense. Deposit insurance increased $47,000 over the prior year, due to the
change in United's risk classification compared to the prior year. Fidelity's
percentage share of losses, as accounted for by the equity method, for its
investments in various developments was $61,000 compared to $135,000 in the
prior year. These writedowns are partially offset by tax credits received and
recorded as reductions of income tax expense. Other operating expense decreased
$11,000 as compared to the previous year due primarily due to Fidelity
continuing to monitor expenses.
Income Tax Expense (benefit). Income tax benefit decreased $4,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1999, compared to the same period in 1998, primarily
due to an decrease in taxable income. Included in the tax benefit of $88,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 1999, are tax credits of $97,000. These
credits are received from Fidelity's investment in Section 42 affordable housing
projects and comprise a portion of the return on these investments. Fidelity
also receives the tax benefit of its percentage of the operating losses for
those projects. Some of these benefits associated with these tax credits are
partially offset by reductions of the investment in the Section 42 investments,
which are included in the above table under the caption "Loss on investment".
Year 2000
Fidelity has completed an assessment of its computer systems and identified
those systems that it believes could be affected by the Year 2000 issue and has
developed an implementation plan to address the issue. At June 30, 1999,
Fidelity completed testing its internal mission critical hardware systems to
determine if they are Year 2000 compliant. Fidelity's main data processor,
mortgage loan software, personal computers, alarms, cameras, VCRs and other
related equipment also have been tested. The results of the testing, while
necessitating some modifications, have been satisfactory. While Fidelity has
exposure to several risks related to the Year 2000, the primary risk is the
potential inability to correctly process and record customer loan and deposit
transactions.
15
<PAGE>
Fidelity is on schedule with regard to the requirements that have been
established for the banking industry by the Federal Financial Institution
Examination Council (FFIEC). These standards require that a series of procedures
be performed by financial institutions within established timeframes to reduce
the risk of noncompliance with the Year 2000 issue. Specifically, Fidelity
developed a testing plan and a customer-based risk management plan. While
Fidelity believes that it will continue to meet all of the FFIEC requirements,
it cannot guarantee that the systems of other companies on which Fidelity's
systems rely will be compliant. Third party non-compliance for the Year 2000
issue could potentially have a material impact on Fidelity.
Fidelity has completed a contingency plan in the event its internal systems, or
the systems of those material vendors on which it is reliant, would not be
compliant with Year 2000 requirements. Fidelity has begun and will continue
testing its contingency plan through the end of 1999, and modifying the plan,
when appropriate, based on test results. A cash contingency supplement to the
overall contingency plan has also been developed for potential Year 2000
liquidity issues.
Fidelity has recognized expense of approximately $190,000 over the past two
years for costs related to the Year 2000. The amounts that have been paid to
date were to provide assistance to Fidelity with the initial assessment and
formulation of a plan to ensure compliance with the Year 2000, equipment to
assist in the testing process and replacement of non-compliant personal
computers and equipment. At June 30, 1999, Fidelity has completed its assessment
of the expected total cost of performing necessary procedures or purchasing
equipment that is compliant with the Year 2000. Fidelity is anticipating total
costs of approximately $310,000, of which $30,000 is expected to be expensed
during the quarter ended December 31, 1999. A portion of these costs have been
capitalized with the purchase and replacement of non-compliant equipment. At
September 30, 1999, total remaining commitments to purchase new equipment,
software or to incur material costs to modify existing systems were
approximately $65,000. The majority of these remaining costs will be capitalized
and amortized over the life of the asset. These costs do not include salaries
paid to current employees related to time spent with the Year 2000 issue.
Fidelity outsources a significant portion of its data processing to an outside
provider. A worst case scenario for Fidelity would likely involve non-compliance
with the Year 2000 by its primary data processor in such a manner that would
leave Fidelity in a position where it could not correctly process and record
customer loan and deposit transactions. Fidelity has reviewed all of the data
processing provider's test scripts and results. At this time, no material
problems have come to Fidelity's attention with respect to test results. A
failure by other third parties to effectively manage the Year 2000 issue,
including Fidelity's payroll processor, utility company, telecommunications
company, etc., could have an adverse effect on Fidelity's operations, customer
service and net income. No assurance can be provided that these third parties
will be Year 2000 compliant.
Fidelity completed its assessment of the potential impact of the Year 2000 on
its commercial lending customers, but believes that the impact, in terms of
potential credit exposure, would not be material. The majority of Fidelity's
commercial lending portfolio consists of commercial real estate loans that are
made to companies that are not technologically intensive.
Fidelity cannot provide any assurance that the effect of the Year 2000 will not
be material to Fidelity's financial position or operating results.
Financial Condition
Total assets at September 30, 1999 decreased $7.5 million to $164.8 million from
$172.3 million at June 30, 1999. Average assets for fiscal 2000 decreased 12.0%
from 1999 to $168.6 million. Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased
$20.8 million as Fidelity used loan payoff proceeds to reduce borrowings and
agent-acquired certificates of deposit, which represent a higher-cost source of
funds for Fidelity.
The decrease in total assets is primarily the result of loan payoffs,
refinancing and payments received on fixed 1-4 family mortgage loans. Fidelity
has continued to sell current production of fixed 1-4 family mortgages to
investors in the secondary market, therefore the mortgage loan portfolio
continues to decline.

</TABLE>
Total loans decreased by $4.6 million or 4.0% to $109.3 million at September 30,
1999, compared to June 30, 1999. Fidelity's savings bank is continually offering
new and competitive first mortgage loan products. Fidelity continues to sell
current production of 1-4 family loans in fiscal 2000, recording the gain or
loss and using the proceeds to fund new products.
Construction and commercial real estate loans decreased by $196,000 and $1.0
million, respectively, at September 30, 1999 from June 30, 1999 to $6.5 million
and $13.1 million, respectively. Construction loans at September 30, 1999
include $6.0 million of multifamily loans.
Commercial loans have also decreased $506,000 since June 30, 1999. According to
the OTS supervisory agreement, United is not to enter into any new lines of
credit or originate any new commercial loans. The focus of United's commercial
lending department personnel has been to develop action plans to minimize
potential losses relating to its classified commercial credits and its letter of
credit exposure.
Consumer and home equity loans decreased $1.4 million since June 30, 1999. The
current portfolio continues to shrink due to paydowns and payoffs. As previously
mentioned in the "non-interest income" discussion, Fidelity has experienced
employee turnover in the consumer loan division and has therefore generated a
lower volume of loans. Management anticipates that consumer loan volume will
increase with the recent staff replacements to the consumer loan department.
Fidelity's loan portfolio contains no loans to foreign governments, foreign
enterprises, foreign operations of domestic companies, hedge funds, or for
highly leveraged transactions.
Non-performing loans. Fidelity discontinues the accrual of interest income on
loans when, in the opinion of management, there is reasonable doubt as to the
timely collectibility of interest or principal. When a loan reaches a ninety day
or more past due status, the asset is generally repossessed or sold, if
applicable, or the foreclosure process is started and the loan is moved to other
real estate owned to be sold. A loan could be placed in a nonaccrual status
sooner than ninety days, if management knows the customer has abandoned the
collateral and has no intention of paying. At this point, management
discontinues the accrual of interest and Fidelity would start the repossession
or foreclosure process. Typically, when a loan goes to nonaccrual status, the
accrued interest is reversed from income, unless strong evidence exists that the
value of the collateral would support the collection of interest in a
foreclosure situation. Nonaccrual loans are returned to an accrual status when
in the opinion of
17
<PAGE>
management, the financial position of the borrower indicates that there is no
longer any reasonable doubt as to the timely payment of principal and interest.

Non-performing loans at September 30, 1999, were 4.08% of total loans compared
to 4.51% of total loans at June 30, 1999 and consisted primarily of commercial
and multifamily loans. As discussed in the provision for loan loss section, one
large multifamily loan to an outside borrower was past due at September 30, 1999
pending its refinancing. The loan was subsequently paid off in October 1999.
Excluding the loan at September 30, 1999 non-performing loans would have been
.76% of total loans. Multifamily affordable housing loans, for which specific
reserves have been computed, are currently performing with respect to debt
service and are therefore not included in the above "non-performing loans"
totals. In the past, the ability of the multifamily loans to remain performing
has been in part due to general partner advances made by Fidelity to support
cash flow deficits incurred by the affordable housing projects. During the
current fiscal year, operating cash flows for most of the properties has
improved and general partner advances have significantly decreased. There is no
assurance that general partner advances will not be necessary in the future to
support cash flow deficits. The majority of recorded general partner advances
were charged off in fiscal 1998.

Classified and criticized assets of Fidelity totaled $36.9 million compared to
$40.7 million at June 30, 1999. Classified assets and letters of credit were
256.2% of Fidelity's capital and reserves at September 30, 1999 compared to
225.9% at September 30, 1998. The increase is primarily associated with the
reduction in classified assets and the improvement in the status of certain
classified assets, therefore reducing the allowance and letter of credit
reserves. A portion of certain loans and letter of credits have been upgraded
from doubtful to substandard based on the overall improvement in operating
results of Fidelity's housing portfolio.
18
<PAGE>
Analysis of Allowance for Loan Losses and Letter of Credit Valuation Allowance
Fidelity establishes its provision for loan losses and evaluates the adequacy of
the allowance for loan losses based on management's evaluation of its loan and
letter of credit portfolio and changes in loan and letter of credit activity.
Such evaluation, which includes a review of all loans and letters of credit for
which full collectibility may not be reasonably assured, considers among other
matters, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, economic
conditions, historical loss experience, the composition of the portfolios and
other factors that warrant recognition in providing for an adequate loan loss
allowance and letter of credit valuation allowance. This evaluation is performed
on a monthly basis and is designed to ensure that all relevant matters affecting
collectibility will be consistently identified in a detailed review and that the
outcome of the review will be considered in a disciplined manner by management
in determining the necessary allowances and related provisions. The amounts
actually reported in each period will vary with the outcome of this detailed
review.
Impaired loans are those that management considers to be substandard or doubtful
of collection. At September 30, 1999 Fidelity had impaired loans totaling $15.9
million. The allowance for losses on such impaired loans totaled $1.9 million
and is included in Fidelity's allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1999.
In addition, using the same guidelines for impaired loans, impaired letter of
credits totaled $19.2 million. The valuation allowance on such impaired letter
of credits totaled $3.1 million and is included in Fidelity's letters of credit
valuation allowance at September 30, 1999.

The allowance for loan losses was $3.5 million at June 30, 1999, $2.5 million at
September 30, 1999, and $3.1 million at September 30, 1998. Net loan charge-offs
were $1.1 million, or 0.98% of average loans for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to $59,000 or 0.15% of average loans for the three
months ended September 30,1998. Based on its most recent evaluation, Fidelity
charge-off $1.0 million of multifamily loans that were previously reserved for
in fiscal 1998. A letter of credit was funded during the first quarter of fiscal
1999 and was classified as a non-accrual loan upon conversion. This loan was
previously classified as a substandard letter of credit, with a specific reserve
of $895,000. The loan was paid off in full during the second quarter of fiscal
1999 and Fidelity reclassified the $895,000 specific reserve to the general
allowance for loan losses. As discussed previously, Fidelity increased the
provision for loan losses during fiscal 1998 primarily in connection with loans
made to certain Section 42 tax-credit real estate development projects that
Fidelity is currently managing. Fidelity has loans and letters of credit
securing third party loans to these projects and also has other loans and
letters of credit outstanding that relate to other multifamily developments,
most of which are outside Fidelity's geographic market.
20
<PAGE>
Fidelity also recorded a letter of credit valuation allowance and related
provision of $6.8 million in fiscal 1998, the balance of which is $4.1 million
at September 30, 1999. The decrease is primarily due to the transfer of $895,000
from the letter of credit valuation allowance to the allowance for loan losses,
and the reversal of $1.2 million in letter of credit reserves, and charge-offs.
Multifamily letters of credit, an off-balance sheet item, carry the same risk
characteristics as conventional loans and totaled $44.6 million at September 30,
1999. Specific reserves for letters of credit totaled 9.23% of outstanding
letters of credit at September 30, 1999. Classified loans and letters of credit
to total loans and letters of credit were 24.3% at September 30, 1999 and 19.4%
at September 30, 1998. Management is not aware of any additional letters of
credit that are expected to be called and funded. Management considers the
allowance for loan losses and letter of credit valuation reserve adequate to
meet losses inherent in the loan and letter of credit portfolio as of September
30, 1999.
Investment securities. United's investment policy is annually reviewed by its
Board of Directors. Any significant changes to the policy must be approved by
the Board. The Board has an asset/liability management committee which is
responsible for keeping the investment policy current.
At September 30, 1999, the investment portfolio represented 15.6% of Fidelity's
assets compared to 15.9% at June 30, 1999, and is managed in a manner designed
to meet the Board's investment policy objectives. Due to continued reductions in
the loan portfolio, the excess liquidity has been reinvested in lower risk
investment securities. The primary objectives, in order of priority, are to
further the safety and soundness of Fidelity, to provide the liquidity necessary
to meet day to day funding needs, and to provide for diversification of risk and
management of interest rate and economic risk. At September 30, 1999, the entire
investment portfolio was classified as available for sale. The net unrealized
loss at September 30, 1999 was $593,000, which was comprised of gross losses of
$982,000 and a tax benefit of $389,000. The increase of $135,000 from June 30,
1999 was caused by market interest rate changes during the period. Although the
entire portfolio is available for sale, management has not identified individual
investments for sale in future periods.
The following table sets forth the components of United's securities available
for sale as of the dates indicated.

United's total investment securities portfolio decreased by $1.7 million at
September 30, 1999, from June 30, 1999. The decreases are a result of monthly
payments of principal and interest on its mortgage-backed securities. As
interest rates decline, principal of the underlying mortgage loans typically is
returned more quickly in the form of payoffs and refinancings.
Funding Sources
Deposits. United attracts both short-term and long-term deposits from the retail
market by offering a wide assortment of accounts with different terms and
different interest rates. These deposit alternatives include checking accounts,
regular savings accounts, money market deposit accounts, fixed rate certificates
with varying maturities, variable interest rate certificates, negotiable rate
jumbo certificates ($100,000 or more), and variable rate IRA certificates.
Average deposits decreased by $21.3 million during the first three months of
fiscal 2000. Most of the decreases were due to certificates of deposit acquired
through agents, and retail certificates of deposit which decreased $12.7 million
and $7.9 million to $20.8 million and $71.1 million, respectively at September
30, 1999. Money market, savings and NOW accounts decreased $27,000, $254,000 and
$769,000, respectively. Demand accounts did increase by $388,000 from June 30,
1999.

In the above table, all notes, except for the Federal Home Loan Bank advances,
are debt of the Parent Company and total $16.6 million. Borrowings have been
reduced during fiscal 2000 primarily due to large payoffs received in loans and
the continued sales of current 1-4 family loan production. The decrease is due
primarily to the maturity of FHLB advances. Fidelity, thus far, has been in a
position to allow FHLB advances to mature and not replace them. Alternate
funding sources were provided by loan sales and payoffs, retail deposits, and
public funds. Fidelity may utilize FHLB advances as a source of funds again
should the need arise.

Capital Resources and Capital Requirements
The ratio of stockholders' equity to total assets for United, was 8.85% at
September 30, 1999, compared to 8.49% at June 30, 1999, due primarily to a
reduction in United's asset size. Net income for the period increased the book
value, while an increase in the unrealized loss on available for sale
investments decreased the ratio. Fidelity's book value per share excluding
unrealized losses on investment securities, at September 30, 1999 was $2.66,
compared to $2.63 at June 30, 1999.
The OTS has adopted capital standards under which savings associations must
maintain (i) "core capital" in an amount not less than 3% of total assets, (ii)
"tangible capital" in an amount not less than 1.5% of total adjusted assets, and
(iii) a level of risk-based capital equal to 8.0% of risk-weighted assets. The
capital standards established by the OTS for savings associations must generally
be no less stringent than those applicable to national banks.
Under OTS regulations "core capital" includes common stockholders' equity,
noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus, and minority
interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less intangible
assets other than certain qualifying supervisory goodwill and certain purchased
mortgage servicing rights. In determining compliance with the capital standards,
a savings association must deduct from capital its entire investment in and
loans to any subsidiary engaged in activities not permissible for a national
bank, other than subsidiaries (i) engaged in such non-permissible activities
solely as agent for their customers; (ii) engaged in mortgage banking
activities; or (iii) that are themselves savings associations, or companies the
only investment of which is another insured depository institution, acquired
prior to May 1, 1989. In determining total risk-weighted assets for purposes of
the risk based requirement, (i) each off-balance sheet asset must be converted
to its on-balance sheet credit equivalent amount by multiplying the face amount
of each such item by a credit conversion factor ranging from 0% to 100%
(depending upon the nature of the asset), (ii) the credit equivalent amount of
each off-balance sheet asset and the book value of each on-balance sheet asset
must be multiplied by a risk factor ranging from 0% to 100% (again depending
upon the nature of the asset), and (iii) the resulting amounts are added
together and constitute total risk-weighted assets. Total capital, for purposes
of the risk-based capital requirement, equals the sum of core capital plus
supplementary capital (which, as defined, includes, among other items, perpetual
preferred stock not counted as core capital, limited life preferred stock,
subordinated debt, and general loan and lease loss allowances up to 1.25% of
risk-weighted assets) less certain deductions including the savings
association's interest-rate risk component. The amount of supplementary capital
that may be counted towards satisfaction of the total capital requirement may
not exceed 100% of core capital.
At September 30, 1999, actual and required minimum levels of regulatory capital
for United were as follows:
(Dollars in Thousands)
Required
Amount Percent Amount Percent Excess
--------------------------------------------------------
Core $13,981 8.85% $4,740 3.0% $9,241
Tangible $13,981 8.85% $2,370 1.5% $11,611
Risk-based $20,487 15.71% $10,433 8.0% $10,054
Pursuant to HOLA of 1933, as amended, the OTS is required to issue capital
standards that are no less stringent than those applicable to national banks. In
April 1991, the OTS proposed to amend its capital regulations to reflect
amendments made by the OCC to the leverage ratio capital requirement for
national banks. The proposal would establish a core capital leverage ratio (core
capital to adjusted total assets) of 3% for savings associations rated composite
1 under the OTS MACRO rating system. For all other savings associations, the
minimum core capital leverage ratio would be 3% plus at least an additional 100
to 200 basis points. Under the proposal, the OTS may impose higher regulations
for individual savings associations. The OTS has not adopted this regulation in
final form. The prompt corrective action regulation adopted by the OTS provides
that a savings association that has a leverage capital ratio of less than 4%
will be considered "undercapitalized" and may be subject to certain
restrictions. At September 30, 1999 United Fidelity had a core capital leverage
ratio (as defined in the proposal) of 8.85%.
The OTS adopted a final regulation adding an interest-rate risk component to its
risk-based capital rule. A savings association's interest-rate risk is generally
defined as the change that occurs to its net portfolio value as a result of
23
<PAGE>
a hypothetical two hundred basis point increase or decrease in market interest
rates. A "normal level" of interest-rate risk is defined as any decline in net
portfolio value of up to 2% of the institution's assets. If the 2% threshold is
exceeded, a savings association will be required to deduct from its capital, for
purposes of determining whether the institution meets its risk-based capital
requirements, an amount equal to one-half of the difference between the measured
risk and 2% of assets.
Capital requirements higher than the generally applicable minimum requirement
may be established for a particular savings association if the OTS determines
that the institution's capital was or may become inadequate in view of its
particular circumstances. Individual minimum capital requirements may be
appropriate where the savings association is receiving special supervisory
attention, has a high degree of exposure to interest rate risk, or poses other
safety or soundness concerns.
The capital category assigned to an entity can also be affected by qualitative
judgments made by regulatory agencies about the risk inherent in the entity's
activities that are not part of the calculated ratios. At September 30, 1999 and
September 30, 1998, United was categorized as well capitalized and met all
subject capital adequacy requirements at those dates.
Per the Supervisory Agreement, the OTS felt additional capital was necessary
based on asset quality concerns. United evaluated and continues to evaluate
alternatives to increasing capital for the purpose of improving its capital
ratios. United has improved its capital ratios by reducing the asset size of the
institution. As noted above, risk-based capital increased to 15.71% at September
30, 1999 compared to 15.37% at June 30, 1999.
On July 16, 1999, Fidelity signed a letter of intent with Lincolnshire
Management, Inc. (Lincolnshire), whereby Lincolnshire would pay $4.40 per share
for newly issued shares of Fidelity's outstanding common stock. The letter
indicates that this common stock, when issued, will represent 51 percent of the
fully diluted common stock of Fidelity. The total purchase price for these
shares is expected to approximate $14.5 million. This transaction is subject to
the execution and delivery of a definitive stock purchase agreement between
Fidelity and Lincolnshire. This agreement is expected to contain several terms
and conditions of the transaction, including a condition that the OTS agrees to
eliminate the Supervisory Agreement. The potential elimination of the
supervisory agreement will likely be accompanied by certain terms and
restrictions on United's business and operations once the proceeds from the
purchase of the stock are invested in United.
Liquidity
Fidelity's principal source of income and funds is dividends from United and is
not subject to any regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends to its
stockholders. However, United is restricted from paying any dividends to
Fidelity without prior approval of the OTS.
Fidelity recently obtained additional financing of $2.0 million to cover
operating costs and servicing of debt at the holding company level. Additional
sources of liquidity available to the holding company include the potential
issuance of additional stock, potential execution of additional debt financing,
and dividends from United (with OTS approval).
United is required by federal regulations to maintain specified levels of
"liquid" assets consisting of cash and other eligible investments. Currently,
liquid assets must equal at least four percent of net withdrawable savings plus
borrowings payable upon demand or due within one year or less. As of September
30, 1999 and June 30, 1999, United's liquidity ratios were 16.70% and 16.99%.
Management believes that this level of liquidity is sufficient to meet any
anticipated requirements for United's operations.
The primary sources of funds for operations are principal and interest payments
on loans, deposits from customers, and sales and maturities of investment
securities. In addition, United is authorized to borrow money from the FHLB and
other sources as needed. United decreased its borrowings from the FHLB from
$12.5 million at June 30, 1999, to $10.7 million at September 30, 1999. Fidelity
has also decreased its utilization of agency-acquired certificates of deposit as
total loans have decreased and the need for these types of funds has also
decreased.
