*        In accordance with Rule 457(c) and (h), the Maximum Aggregate Offering
         Price and Registration Fee have been computed as follows: (a) the price
         per share of the Common Stock of Dime Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") has
         been based on the average of the high and low prices for the Common
         Stock of the Company as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on
         October 26, 2000, and (b) using such price per share, the aggregate
         amount of the Offering Price was then calculated on the basis of the
         aggregate amount of shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable in
         connection with the Dime Bancorp, Inc. 1997 Stock Incentive Plan.

         Pursuant to Rule 429 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, this
         Registration Statement also covers the shares of Common Stock
         previously registered under Registration Statement Nos. 333-48127 and
         333-64509.

         Statement, filed with the Commission on September 29, 1999, and an
         additional 50,000 shares of Common Stock were registered on this
         Registration Statement, filed with the Commission on December 23, 1999.
