Estimated fair values for securities are based on published market or 
securities dealers' estimated prices.

During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company sold available-for-sale 
securities aggregating $321.1 million, resulting in gross realized gains of 
$0.5 million and $0.3 in gross realized losses.

The average maturities of the securities available for sale and held to 
maturity at March 31, 1997 are approximately 8.6 years and 12.4 years, 
respectively. Mortgage-backed securities, almost all of which have 
contractual maturities of more than 10 years, are subject to scheduled and 
non-scheduled principal payments which shorten the average life to an 
estimated 5.7 years. The estimated average life for all securities available 
for sale is approximately 3.8 years.

5.  PURCHASE ACQUISITION OF MORTGAGE SERVICING OPERATIONS

On March 25, 1997, the Company announced the signing of a definitive 
agreement in which the Company will purchase the Columbus, GA mortgage 
servicing operations of Citizens Financial Group, Inc., for a net purchase 
price of approximately $4 million. The purchase of the Georgia facility will 
give the Company a stronger platform for servicing its national mortgage 
portfolio.

6.  EARNINGS PER SHARE IMPACT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 1997, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 
128, ("SFAS 128") "Earnings per Share". SFAS 128 establishes standards for 
computing and presenting earnings per share and applies to entities with 
publicly held common stock or potential common stock. SFAS 128 simplifies the 
standards for computing earnings per share previously found in APB Opinion 
No. 15, Earnings per Share, and makes them comparable to international EPS 
standards. It replaces the presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of 
basic EPS. It also requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the 
face of the income statement for all entities with complex capital structures.

The statement is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending 
after December 15, 1997, including interim periods, earlier application is 
not permitted. This statement requires restatement of all prior-period EPS 
data presented.

                Management's Discussion and Analysis of
       Financial Condition and Results of Operations - (Continued)

1. GENERAL

The Bank has historically operated as a traditional consumer-oriented 
institution serving the markets in which its branches are located. 
Management's objective has been to become a major niche loan originator in 
the national residential mortgage market and to become a major consumer 
banking force within the attractive, rapidly consolidating New York 
metropolitan consumer banking market.

GreenPoint regularly explores opportunities for acquisitions of and holds 
discussions with financial institutions and related businesses, and also 
regularly explores opportunities for acquisitions of liabilities and assets 
of financial institutions and other financial service providers. The Company 
routinely analyzes its lines of business and from time to time may increase, 
decrease or terminate one or more of its activities.

2.   OPERATING RESULTS

The first quarter's results include the following:

- -      GreenPoint Mortgage Corp. (GPMC) opened regional mortgage production 
       offices in Atlanta, Denver, Phoenix and San Francisco.

- -      The Company's loan originations were up 73% from the first quarter of 
       1996, due to the increasing national expansion of the Company's No Doc 
       mortgage business.

- -      Asset quality continues to improve as non-performing loans and 
       non-performing assets decline. As a result of the decline in 
       non-performing loans and the growth of the loan portfolio, the ratio of 
       non-performing loans to total loans decreased to 4.45%.

- -      Net interest margin increased to 3.97%, primarily from a decrease in 
       cost of deposits, and reinvestment of funds from the investment 
       portfolio into higher yielding mortgage loans.

Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 was $39.7 million, or $0.94 
per share, a 45% increase over the $27.4 million, or $0.60 per share, for the 
comparable 1996 period. The quarter ended results include an after-tax gain 
of $3.5 million on the sale of the Company's two banking offices in 
Westchester County, New York and a $1.4 million after-tax gain on the sale of
bank-owned property. Excluding the branch and asset sale gains, the quarter
ended results were $34.7 million, or $0.82 per share, a 27% increase over the
comparable 1996 period.

         Financial Condition and Results of Operations - (Continued)

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income increased by $12.9 million, or 12.0%, in the first 
quarter of 1997, versus the comparable period in 1996. The increase was 
primarily due to an improvement in the net interest margin. The average yield 
on interest-earning assets rose 47 basis points to 7.86% and the average cost 
of funds declined 30 basis points to 4.22%, compared to the first quarter of 
1996.

Interest income decreased by $12.8 million, or 5.1%, to $238.3 million in the 
first quarter of 1997, from $251.1 million for the comparable 1996 period. 
The primary reason for the decrease was the decline of average money market 
investments and investment securities, which was partially offset by the rise 
in average mortgage loans.

Interest income on money market investments decreased by $19.0 million, or 
81.4%, to $4.3 million in the first quarter of 1997, from $23.3 million for 
the comparable 1996 period. The decrease was due to a decline in the average 
money market investment balance of $1.4 billion, from $1.7 billion for the 
first quarter of 1996 period.

Interest income on securities declined by $22.6 million, or 26.3%, to $63.1 
million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, from $85.7 million for the 
comparable 1996 period. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in the 
average securities balance of $1.5 billion, to $4.2 billion from $5.7 billion 
for the first quarter of 1996.

Interest income on mortgages increased by $27.5 million, or 19.5%, to $168.8 
million, in the first quarter of 1997, from $141.3 million for the comparable 
1996 period. The increase reflects a higher average balance of $7.6 billion, 
from $6.2 billion in the first quarter of 1996, principally as a result of 
retained no-doc loan origination volume generated by GPMC.

Interest expense decreased by $25.6 million, or 17.9%, to $117.9 million in 
the first quarter of 1997, from $143.5 million for the comparable 1996 
period. The decrease reflects a $1.5 billion decline in average 
interest-bearing liabilities and a 30 basis point decrease in the average 
cost of funds, from the first quarter of 1996.

Interest expense on time deposits decreased by $21.9 million, or 20.9%, to 
$83.1 million in the first quarter of 1997, from $105.0 million for the 
comparable 1996 period. The primary reason for the decline was the decrease 
in average time deposits of $1.1 billion in the first quarter of 1997, 
resulting from deposit run-off. The average cost of time deposits decreased 
by 35 basis points from the first quarter of 1996.

Interest expense on savings accounts decreased by $1.7 million, to $12.2 
million in the first quarter of 1997, from $13.9 million for the comparable 
1996 period. The decline in interest expense reflects a decrease in the 
average balance of $139.3 million in the first quarter of 1997, versus the 
same period in 1996.

AVERAGE BALANCE SHEETS AND INTEREST YIELD/COST
The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Company's 
average statements of financial condition (unaudited) and statements of 
income (unaudited) for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, and 
reflects the average yield on assets and average cost of liabilities for the 
periods indicated. Such annualized yields and costs are derived by dividing 
income or expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities, 
respectively, for the periods shown. Average balances are derived from 
average daily balances. Average balances and yields include non-accrual 
loans. The yields and costs include fees which are considered adjustments to 
yields.

RATE/VOLUME ANALYSIS

The following table presents the effects of changes in interest rates and 
changes in volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities 
on the Company's interest income on a tax equivalent basis and interest 
expense during the periods indicated. Information is provided in each 
category on changes (i) attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume 
multiplied by prior rate), (ii) changes attributable to changes in rate 
(changes in rate multiplied by prior volume), and (iii) the net change. The 
changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been 
allocated proportionately to volume and rate.

PROVISION FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES

The provision for possible loan losses increased by $1.4 million, or 37.6%, to
$5.0 million for the first quarter of 1997, from $3.6 million for the comparable
1996 period. The provision exceeded net charge-offs by $1.0 million for the
first quarter of 1997, to reflect the net effect of loan portfolio growth and
improving loan quality.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Non-interest income increased by $7.7 million, or 67.0%, to $19.2 million for
the first quarter of 1997 from $11.5 million for the comparable 1996 period. The
increase is primarily the result of a $5.9 million gain on the sale of two
banking offices and a $2.4 million gain on the sale of bank-owned properties.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

Non-interest expense increased by $0.5 million, to $68.2 million for the first
quarter of 1997, as compared to the 1996 period. Charitable and educational
foundation contributions expense increased by $1.0 million, ESOP and stock plans
expense increased by $0.6 million due to a higher average stock price during
1997 and premises and equipment expense increased by $0.4 million, compared to
the first quarter of 1996. The increases were partially offset by the decrease
of $0.9 million in FDIC deposit insurance premiums due to the reduction in
assessment rates and the recapitalization of the Savings Association Insurance
Fund and a decrease of $0.6 million in other administrative expenses.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

Income tax expense increased by $6.4 million, or 31.6%, to $26.7 million in the
first quarter of 1997, from $20.3 million for the same period of 1996. The
increase in income tax expense is primarily due to a $18.7 million, or 39.3%
increase in income before income taxes, which was partially offset by the
decrease in the effective rate from 42.60% in the 1996 period to 40.25% in the
1997 period.

3.  FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets decreased by $64.4 million, to $13.26 billion at March 31, 1997,
from $13.33 billion at December 31, 1996. Total loans held for investment, net,
rose $399.4 million to $7.69 billion at March 31, 1997, from $7.29 billion at
December 31, 1996. Securities available for sale decreased $384.9 million, to
$3.97 billion at March 31, 1997, from $4.36 billion at December 31, 1996,
primarily as a result of the usage of proceeds from the maturities and sales of
securities to fund loan originations.

GreenPoint's operating results include significant amortization of goodwill and
employee stock compensation plans expense. These non-cash expenditures, unlike
all other expenses reported by the Company, result in net increases in
GreenPoint's tangible capital and related core cash earnings. Additional core
cash earnings enable the Company to pursue increases in shareholder value
through growth of earning assets, increases of cash dividends, and additional
repurchases of the Company's stock.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY GAP ANALYSIS

The table below depicts the Company's interest rate sensitivity as of March 
31, 1997. Allocations of assets and liabilities, including non 
interest-bearing sources of funds, to specific periods are based upon 
management's assessment of contractual or anticipated repricing 
characteristics, adjusted periodically to reflect actual experience. Those 
gaps are then adjusted for the net effect of off-balance sheet financial 
instruments such as interest rate swaps.

INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT

Interest rate risk is defined as the sensitivity of the Company's current and
future earnings to changes in the level of market interest rates. It arises in
the ordinary course of the Company's business, as the repricing characteristics
of its mortgage loans do not match those of its deposit liabilities. The
resulting interest rate risk is managed by adjustments to the Company's
investment portfolio and through the use of off balance sheet instruments such
as interest rate swaps and options.

Management responsibility for interest rate risk resides with the Asset and
Liability Management Committee ("ALCO"). The committee is comprised of the
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, the Vice Chairman and the Company's senior
business-unit and financial executives. Interest rate risk management strategies
are formulated and monitored by ALCO within policies and limits approved by the
Board of Directors. These policies and limits set forth the maximum risk which
the Board of Directors deems prudent, govern permissible investment securities
and off balance sheet instruments and identify acceptable counter parties to
securities and off balance sheet transactions.

ALCO risk management strategies allow for the assumption of interest rate risk
within the Board approved limits. The strategies are formulated based upon
ALCO's assessments of likely market developments and trends in the Company's
mortgage and consumer banking businesses. Strategies are developed with the aim
of enhancing the Company's net income and capital, while ensuring the risks to
income and capital from adverse movements in interest rates are acceptable.

In assessing various interest rate risk strategies, ALCO makes use of a variety
of risk measures. One such measure is the consolidated gap analysis reported
above as of March 31, 1997. Assets and liabilities are allocated to the various
maturities in accordance with the earlier of their contractual maturity or
repricing dates. For mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities, estimates of
scheduled amortization plus prepayments are used, rather than contractual
maturity. For assets and liabilities with indefinite repricing schedules,
notably core deposits, the gap analysis reflects ALCO's judgements of likely
repricing behavior.

As indicated in the gap analysis, the twelve-month cumulative gap, representing
the total net assets and liabilities that are projected to reprice over the next
twelve months, was liability sensitive $72.0 million at March 31, 1997. A
liability sensitive interest rate gap would tend to decrease earnings over a
period of rising interest rates, where declining rates would increase earnings.
The cumulative one-year sensitivity gap was negative 0.5% of total assets at
March 31, 1997, compared to negative 0.08% at December 31, 1996.

The use of interest rate instruments such as interest rate swaps are integrated
into the Company's interest rate risk management. The notional amounts of these
instruments are not reflected in the Company's balance sheet. However, these
instruments are included in the interest rate sensitivity table for purposes of
analyzing interest rate risk.

                  Management's Discussion and Analysis of
       Financial Condition and Results of Operations - (Continued)

The Company has entered into interest rate swaps, with a total notional amount
of $300 million, to reduce the Company's overall interest rate risk arising from
its origination of fixed rate mortgages. These instruments are considered
derivative financial instruments held for purposes other than trading and the
effects of these instruments are reported as an adjustment to mortgage loan
income. The unrealized gains or losses on these instruments are not recorded on
the balance sheet, since they are used as a hedge against held-to-maturity
loans. For the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the interest rate swaps had
negative $0.6 million impact on mortgage loan income. The interest rate swaps
require the Company to pay a weighted average fixed rate of 6.33% and receive
three month LIBOR. As of March 31, 1997, the weighted average LIBOR rate that
the Company will receive is 5.54%. The agreements will expire in the third
quarter of 1999. As of the quarter ended March 31, 1997 the interest rate swaps
had a gross positive market value of $1.9 million. The Company has a policy to
enter into mutual collateral agreements with each counter party, which requires
either party to submit U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency collateral when
the market value of the instrument reaches a predetermined threshold.

Non-Performing Assets

The Company improved its asset quality during the quarter ended March 31, 1997,
as non-performing loans decreased by $6.5 million, or 1.8%, while non-performing
assets decreased by $8.3 million, or 2.2%. The ratio of non-performing loans to
total loans fell to 4.45% at March 31, 1997 from 4.78% at December 31, 1996. The
ratio of non-performing assets to total assets fell to 2.84% at March 31, 1997
from 2.89% at December 31, 1996.

Non-performing assets, net of related specific reserves, were as follows:

CAPITAL RATIOS

The Company's ratio of period-end stockholders' equity to ending total assets
at March 31, 1997 was  10.81% compared to 10.95% at December 31, 1996.

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by the Federal and state banking agencies. The Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System establishes minimum capital requirements for the
consolidated bank holding company, as well as for the Bank.

Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve
quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities, and certain off balance sheet
items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. These guidelines
require minimum ratios of risk-based capital to risk adjusted assets of 4% for
Tier 1 capital and 8% for total capital. The Federal Reserve Board also has
guidelines for a leverage ratio that is designed to complement the risk-based
capital ratios in determining the overall capital adequacy of banks and bank
holding companies. A minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 capital to average total
assets of 3% is required for banks and bank holding companies, with an
additional 100 to 200 basis points required for all but the highest rated
institutions. Management believes, as of March 31, 1997, that the Company and
the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

                     Financial Condition and Results of Operations - (Continued)

As of March 31, 1997, the most recent notification from the FDIC categorized the
Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective
action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum
Tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios of 6%, 10% and 5%,
respectively. There have been no conditions or events since that notification
that management believes have changed the Company's or Bank's category.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

With the exception of the matters set forth below, the Company is not involved
in any pending legal proceedings other than routine legal proceedings occurring
in the ordinary course of business which, in the aggregate, involve amounts
which are believed by management to be immaterial to the consolidated financial
statements of the Company. The Bank has been named as a defendant in fourteen
unrelated legal complaints which assert that infant plaintiffs sustained
personal injuries from the ingestion of lead based paint, chips or dust.
Additionally there are ten other instances of threatened litigation. The
complaints are in various early stages of discovery. Outside counsel has advised
the Bank that because discovery on these claims has only recently begun, counsel
is not yet in a position to express an opinion as to the Bank's liability or to
quantify the Bank's potential exposure, if any, in dollar terms at this time.
The Company currently believes that such liability exposure, if any, would not
be material to the Bank's financial condition.
