ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
- - Net income for first quarter 1997 was $114.1 million, up 28% from
earnings of $88.8 million during first quarter 1996. Fully diluted earnings per
share were 93 cents for first quarter 1997 compared with 74 cents in 1996. For
the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company's return on average assets was
1.01% compared with 0.85% for the same period a year earlier.
- - On January 15, 1997, the Company completed its acquisition of United
Western Financial Group, Inc. of Salt Lake City, Utah including its
subsidiaries, United Savings Bank, Uniwest Service Corporation and Western
Mortgage Loan Corporation (collectively "United Western"). United Western
operated eight branches in Utah and one in Idaho and seven loan production
offices in five western states. On the acquisition date, United Western had
assets of $404.1 million and deposits of $299.9 million.
- - On March 6, 1997, the Company announced the signing of an agreement to
acquire through a stock merger Great Western Financial Corporation ("GWFC")
including its banking subsidiary, Great Western Bank, a Federal Savings Bank
("GWB") and its consumer finance subsidiary, Aristar, Inc. ("Aristar"). GWFC is
a diversified financial services company operating more than 1,150 mortgage
lending, retail banking and consumer finance offices nationwide. GWB conducts
most of its retail banking business through a branch network concentrated in
California and Florida. In addition, GWB has real estate lending operations in
27 states with business concentrated in California, Florida, Texas and
Washington. At year-end 1996, Aristar operated over 500 offices in 23 states
primarily in the Southeast and Southwest regions of the United States
principally under the names Blazer Financial Services and City Finance Company.
At March 31, 1997, GWFC had assets of $42.9 billion and deposits of
$28.2 billion. Under the terms of the agreement, each outstanding share of GWFC
common stock would be exchanged for 0.9 shares of Washington Mutual common
stock. The agreement has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of
Washington Mutual and GWFC. Pending regulatory and shareholder approval, the
merger is scheduled to close during the third quarter of 1997.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET INTEREST INCOME. The Company's net interest income was $317.0 million for
the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared with $287.0 million for the same
period in 1996. The 10% growth in net interest income from a year ago was
generated primarily by an increase in interest-earning assets. Average
interest-earning assets of $43.1 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 1997
were up 9% from the same period in 1996.
Also contributing to the rise in net interest income was a slight increase
in the net interest spread. The Company's combined yield on loans and
investments decreased to 7.68% for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared
with 7.72% for the same period in 1996 while the cost of funds decreased as well
to 4.91% for the first quarter of 1997 compared with 4.97% a year ago. As a
result, the net interest spread was 2.77% in the first quarter compared with
2.75% for the same period in 1996. (The net interest spread is the difference
between the Company's yield on assets and its cost of funds.)
The Company's net interest margin was 2.88% for the first quarter of 1997
compared with 2.90% for the same period in 1996. (The net interest margin
measures the Company's annualized net interest income as a percentage of
interest-earning assets.)
Under a restructuring strategy begun in late 1995, the Company has sold the
majority of its fixed-rate residential loan production while retaining
adjustable-rate residential loan originations and has replaced fixed-rate
1
<PAGE> 3
assets with adjustable-rate mortgage-backed securities. (See "Interest Rate
Risk Management.") The loss of these higher yielding fixed-rate assets and
inclusion of more adjustable-rate assets led to the overall decline in yield on
earning assets. As noted above, even though the yield on interest-earning assets
was down, net interest income was not adversely affected due to the increase in
the level of interest-earning assets and the decrease in cost of funds. The
Company's cost of funds was positively affected by a change in its deposit mix.
A decline in time deposit accounts was generally offset by an increase in lower
interest cost money market and checking accounts.
OTHER INCOME. Other income was $75.4 million for the quarter ended March 31,
1997 compared with $57.0 million for the same period in 1996.
Depositor fees for the quarter just ended were $28.6 million, an increase
of 27% from $22.5 million in first quarter 1996. During the quarter just ended,
the Company opened more than 65,000 net new checking accounts. The
profitability of these accounts is tempered somewhat by the amount of deposit
account-related losses (included with other expenses) incurred by the Company
related to the increased number of checking accounts. Management closely
monitors the amount of such losses to assure the profitability of its deposit
products.
Loan servicing fees were $14.3 million for the quarter just ended, compared
with $8.5 million for the same period a year ago. The 68% growth in loan
servicing fees was primarily due to an increase in the size of the Company's
servicing portfolio. Loans serviced for others increased 18% to $26.7 billion at
March 31, 1997 from $22.6 billion one year earlier. Also during the first
quarter of 1997, American Savings Bank F.A. ("ASB"), the Company's
California-based banking subsidiary, recorded $3.3 million of loan servicing
fees on securitized loans. Such fees will continue to be reported as loan
servicing included in interest income.
Securities, annuity and other service fees, principally generated by the
Company's nonbanking subsidiaries, were $12.8 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 1997 compared with $13.1 million for the same period last year.
Other operating income increased to $13.7 million for the quarter just
ended compared with $7.8 million from the same period a year ago due primarily
to increases in loan related income, late fees and the effect of the United
Western merger together with several one-time adjustments totaling $2.3 million.
Gain on the sale of loans was $5.7 million for first quarter of 1997
compared with $4.4 million for the same period in 1996. During the quarter just
ended, the Company sold $567.9 million of loans compared with $392.6 million in
the first quarter 1996.
Gain on the sale of other assets was $243,000 for the quarter just ended
compared with $806,000 for first quarter 1996.
OTHER EXPENSE. Total operating expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1997
was $192.6 million, a 6% increase compared with $181.1 million during the first
quarter of 1996.
Salaries and employee benefits were $86.8 million for the quarter just
ended compared with $81.8 million a year ago due primarily to merger activity
and increases in staffing levels in commercial banking and financial centers.
The staffing level of full-time equivalent employees was 8,773 at March 31,
1997, up from 7,868 a year earlier.
Occupancy and equipment expense increased to $32.9 million for the quarter
just ended compared with $27.7 million a year earlier primarily as a result of
expenses associated with new financial centers and the merger with United
Western in January 1997.
Outside telecommunications and data processing services increased to $24.9
million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared with $12.2 million a year
ago as a result of the Company's outsourcing of certain support services.
Regulatory assessments decreased to $4.1 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 1997 from $11.6 million for the same period in 1996, reflecting a
reduction in the assessment rates on the Company's deposits.
Other operating expense for the quarter was $39.3 million, up 4% from $37.6
million in first quarter 1996.
Amortization of goodwill and intangible assets was $6.8 million for the
quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared with $6.9 million during the same period
in 1996.
Real estate owned ("REO") operations, inclusive of write-downs, resulted in
income of $2.1 million for the quarter compared with expense of $3.2 million for
the same period last year. During the first quarter of 1997, REO operations
included recoveries on the sale of several residential and commercial
properties, and a recovery on one large commercial property in Washington
totaling $1.9 million.

OPERATING EFFICIENCY RATIO. The operating efficiency ratio is other expense as a
percentage of net interest income plus other income. The Company's ratio was
49.1% for the first quarter of 1997 compared with 52.6% for the same period in
1996. Slight increases in other expenses during first quarter 1997 were offset
by substantial increases in net interest income and other income during the
quarter.
NONBANKING SUBSIDIARY OPERATIONS. Pretax operating income (net income before
amortization of goodwill and intangible assets and elimination of intercompany
transactions) for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 was $8.6 million compared
with $13.5 million for the same period in 1996. The Company's insurance
subsidiaries reported pretax operating income of $4.4 million for the quarter
just ended compared with $4.5 million a year earlier. The securities
subsidiaries posted pretax operating income of $4.2 million for the first
quarter of 1997 compared with pretax operating income of $4.9 million during the
same period a year ago. During the first quarter of 1996, the Company recognized
a deferred gain of $4.1 million on the 1995 sale of its travel agency
subsidiary. Results of operations for nonbanking subsidiaries were as follows:

FINANCIAL POSITION
ASSETS. At March 31, 1997, the Company's assets were $46.1 billion up 3%
from $44.6 billion at December 31, 1996.
INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES. Washington Mutual's investment portfolio at March 31,
1997 was $11.7 billion, a 2% decrease from the year-end 1996 balance of $12.0
billion. The Company's mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") constituted $10.2
billion or 86% of the total investment portfolio at quarter end while other
investment securities totaled $1.5 billion.
MBS that the Company securitized from its own single-family residential
loan origination activity totaled $6.1 billion at March 31, 1997 while the
remaining $4.1 billion was purchased in the secondary market. During the
quarter, Washington Mutual securitized and retained $80.4 million of loans
and purchased $7.8 million of MBS. Amortization of outstanding MBS principal
during the first quarter of 1997 totaled $308.7 million.
LOAN ORIGINATIONS. For the first quarter of 1997, total lending increased 16% to
$3.5 billion compared with $3.0 billion for the same period a year earlier. The
Company's growing franchise and aggressive marketing strategy together with
strong regional economies in its primary markets helped generate increases in
lending volumes in all loan categories. The Company remained the leading
residential first-mortgage lender in Washington and Oregon and second in
California with residential loan originations of $2.4 billion during the
quarter just ended compared with $2.3 billion during the first quarter of 1996.
Originations of residential loans to purchase homes were $1.3 billion compared
with $941.6 million a year ago, while home loan refinancings were $1.1 billion
compared with $1.3 billion in the first quarter of 1996.
First quarter 1997 originations of residential construction loans were
$325.1 million, an increase of 30% from $249.7 million for the first quarter of
1996. Consumer loan originations, primarily home equity and manufactured home
loans, increased to $370.0 million for the quarter ending March 31, 1997 from
$273.6 million a year ago. Commercial real estate, which includes multi-family
and nonresidential lending, increased to $213.4 million for the quarter just
ended from $170.5 million for the same period in 1996. Commercial business
lending for the first quarter of 1997 was $148.4 million, an increase of 302%
from $36.9 million for the first quarter of 1996. The
3
<PAGE> 5
growth in commercial business lending resulted from new loan production
offices in Washington and Oregon, an emphasis on small business lending and the
implementation of an aggressive marketing strategy.
DEPOSITS. Total deposits increased to $24.3 billion at March 31, 1997 from $24.1
billion at December 31, 1996. Retail money market and checking accounts - both
of which have the benefit of lower interest costs - increased $345.3 million
offsetting a $198.6 million decline in retail time deposits. The increase in
retail money market and checking accounts was primarily the result of the merger
with United Western, which added $299.9 million in total deposits. Retail time
deposits were allowed to run off as the Company did not price up to maintain
the 1996 year-end level. While the vast majority of its deposits are retail in
nature, the Company does engage in certain wholesale activities -- primarily
accepting time deposits from political subdivisions and public agencies. The
Company considers wholesale deposits to be an alternative borrowing source
rather than a customer relationship and, as such, their levels are determined
by management's decisions as to the most economic funding sources.
BORROWINGS. Washington Mutual's borrowings are primarily securities sold under
agreements to repurchase, federal funds purchased and advances from the Federal
Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Seattle and San Francisco. These three borrowing
sources totaled $7.6 billion, $1.2 billion and $8.6 billion at March 31, 1997,
compared with $7.8 billion, $1.1 billion and $7.2 billion at year-end 1996,
respectively. The exact mix at any given time is dependent upon the market
pricing of the various borrowing sources. Specifically, due to relative pricing
advantages, the Company primarily used FHLB advances to fund its balance sheet
growth during the quarter just ended.
INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT. Washington Mutual engages in a comprehensive
asset and liability management program that attempts to reduce the risk of
significant decreases in net interest income caused by interest rate changes.
One of the Company's strategies to reduce the effect of future movements in
interest rates is to increase the percentage of adjustable-rate assets in its
portfolio. During the first three months of 1997, the Company securitized and
then sold the majority of the fixed-rate loans it originated, while retaining
nearly all of its adjustable-rate loan production. The Company retained the
servicing rights to the loans that were sold. A conventional measure of interest
rate sensitivity for thrift institutions is the one-year gap, which is
calculated by dividing the difference between assets maturing or repricing
within one year and total liabilities maturing or repricing within one year by
total assets.
The Company's assets and liabilities that mature or reprice within one year
were as follows:

</TABLE>
As required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114, the
Company evaluates all builder construction, commercial real estate and
commercial business loans for impairment. A loan is considered impaired when
it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due
according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.
At March 31, 1997, loans totaling $264.6 million were impaired of which
$160.5 million had allocated reserves of $41.8 million. Impaired loans consisted
of the following:

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total impaired loans $264,612 $317,318
===========================================================================================
</TABLE>
The average balance of impaired loans during the quarter was $291.0 million
and the Company recognized $2.3 million of related interest income. Interest
income is normally recognized on an accrual basis. If the impaired loan
is nonperforming, interest income is recorded only on the receipt of cash.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES AND RESERVE FOR LOAN AND REO LOSSES. The provision for
loan losses for the first quarter 1997 was $15.5 million, down 26% compared with
$20.9 million for first quarter 1996. The low level of provision reflected the
Company's high level of reserves and asset quality. The reserve for loan losses
increased slightly to $367.2 million at March 31, 1997 from $363.4 million at
December 31, 1996. Reserves charged off, net of recoveries, totaled $20.0
million for the first quarter of 1997 compared with $23.3 million for the same
period in 1996. Approximately 89% of the net charge-offs during the first
quarter of 1997 reflect activity at ASB and were anticipated in the
establishment of reserve levels during 1996. At March 31, 1997, the reserve for
loan losses represented 1.14% of outstanding loans and 152.90% of nonperforming
assets, less REO loans, compared with 1.09% and 160.52% at year-end 1996.

</TABLE>
As part of the process of determining the adequacy of the reserve for loan
losses, management reviews its loan portfolio for specific weaknesses. A portion
of the reserve is then allocated to reflect the loss exposure. The March 31,
1997 analysis of builder construction, commercial real estate and commercial
loans resulted in an allocation of $84.8 million of the reserve for loan loss
exposure. At December 31, 1996, the Company had allocated reserves of $78.3
million. The remaining reserve of $282.4 million at March 31, 1997 was
unallocated and available for potential losses from any of the Company's loans.
An analysis of the reserve for loan losses was as follows:

</TABLE>
A reserve for REO losses is maintained for any subsequent decline in the
value of foreclosed property. The reserve for REO losses was $6.4 million at
March 31, 1997, compared with $7.1 million at December 31, 1996. The level is
based upon a routine review of the REO portfolio and the strength of national
and local economies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
Liquidity. Washington Mutual monitors its ability to meet short-term cash
requirements using guidelines established by its Board of Directors. The
operating liquidity ratio is used to ensure that normal short-term secured
borrowing capacity is sufficient to satisfy unanticipated cash needs. The
volatile dependency ratio measures the degree to which the Company depends on
wholesale funds maturing within one year weighted by the dependability of the
source. At March 31, 1997, the Company had substantial liquidity compared with
its established guidelines.
The Company also computes ratios promulgated by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") to monitor the liquidity position of Washington
Mutual Bank ("WMB"), a subsidiary of the Company. The regulatory liquidity ratio
measures WMB's ability to use liquid assets to meet unusual cash demands. The
regulatory dependency ratio measures WMB's reliance upon potentially volatile
liabilities to fund long-term assets. WMB manages both ratios to remain within
the acceptable ranges and, at March 31, 1997, was within the established FDIC
guidelines.
Regulations promulgated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") require
that ASB and Washington Mutual Bank fsb ("WMBfsb") maintain for each calendar
month an average daily balance of liquid assets at least equal to 5.00% of the
prior month's average daily balance of net withdrawable deposits plus borrowings
due within one year. For each month during the first quarter of 1997, the
liquidity ratio for ASB and for WMBfsb was above 5.00%.
To meet its immediate needs for funds as well as long-term lending demands,
Washington Mutual maintains various sources of liquid assets and borrowing
capabilities. At March 31, 1997, the Company's banking subsidiaries were able to
borrow an additional $11.1 billion through the use of collateralized borrowings
using unpledged mortgage-backed securities and other wholesale sources. The
ability of the Company's banking subsidiaries to pay dividends to the Company
is influenced by legal, regulatory and economic restrictions.
Because the low interest rate environment of recent years and competition
from non-regulated entities (such as mutual funds) has inhibited consumer
deposits, Washington Mutual has supported its growth through business
combinations with other financial institutions and by increasing its use of
wholesale borrowings. Should the Company not be able to increase deposits either
internally or through acquisitions, its ability to grow would be dependent upon,
and to a certain extent limited by, its borrowing capacity.
As presented in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the sources of
liquidity vary between periods. The statement of cash flows includes operating,
investing and financing categories. Cash flows from operating activities
included net income for the first quarter of 1997 of $114.1 million, $17.2
million of noncash items and $39.8 million of other net cash flows from
operating activities. During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, cash flows from
investing activities included sales and principal payments on available-for-sale
securities and loans held for investment totaling $2.1 billion. New loans
originated and purchased for investment required $3.7 billion, and $136.4
million was used for the purchase of available-for-sale securities. Cash flows
from financing activities consisted of the net change in deposit accounts and
short-term borrowings, the proceeds and repayments from both securities sold
under long-term agreements to repurchase and FHLB advances, and also the
repayment of long-term debt. During the quarter just ended, the above mentioned
financing activities increased cash and cash equivalents by $1.3 billion on a
net basis. Cash and cash equivalents were $532.6 million at March 31, 1997. (See
"Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows".)
CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS. At March 31, 1997, Washington Mutual's banking
subsidiaries exceeded all current regulatory capital requirements and were
classified as well capitalized institutions, the highest regulatory standard.
The regulatory capital ratios of WMB, ASB and WMBfsb and minimum regulatory
requirements to be categorized as well capitalized were as follows:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ACCOUNTING ADJUSTMENTS
The information included in the consolidated statements of financial
position as of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996 and the consolidated
statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows of Washington Mutual
for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 reflect all adjustments which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the
results for the period presented.
2. EARNINGS PER SHARE
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, Earnings per
Share. SFAS No. 128 specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure
requirements for earnings per share ("EPS") for entities with publicly held
common stock or potential common stock such as options, warrants, convertible
securities or contingent stock agreements if those securities trade in a public
market. This standard specifies computation and presentation requirements for
both basic EPS and, for entities with complex capital structures, diluted EPS.
SFAS No. 128 is effective for reporting periods ending after December 15, 1997
and early adoption of the standard is not permitted. The Company does not
anticipate the adoption of SFAS No. 128 to have a material affect on its results
of operations on a per share basis.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
(1997)
This Employment Agreement (the "Agreement") is between WASHINGTON
MUTUAL, INC., a Washington corporation ("Washington Mutual")
and ("Employee").
Employee has many years of experience in the financial services
business, and has been employed as an officer of Washington Mutual and/or an
affiliate since . Because of Employee's importance to Washington
Mutual and the value to be derived from Employee's continued employment, it is
the desire of Washington Mutual and Employee to set forth certain terms and
conditions relating to Employee's employment as an inducement for Employee
continuing his or her employment for so long as Washington Mutual desires to
employ Employee.
Therefore, the parties agree as follows:
1. Employment. Washington Mutual agrees to, and does hereby,
employ Employee, and Employee agrees to, and does hereby, accept such
employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any other provision in this Agreement
or any prior written or oral agreement or understanding between Washington
Mutual and Employee, Employee's employment hereunder shall be at will and may be
terminated at any time by Washington Mutual without any liability whatsoever to
Washington Mutual except for the payment of such amounts and the providing of
such benefits as are expressly set forth in Sections 6 and 12.
2. Duties. Employee shall perform such duties as the Chairman,
the President or the Board of Directors of Washington Mutual (the "Board") may
from time to time direct. (As used herein "Board" shall include the board of
directors or other successor body performing their function in the event of a
merger, consolidation, etc., as described in paragraph 12 below.) Employee shall
initially have the title of with duties principally in the area
of , but this may be changed from time to time as the Chairman,
the President or the Board may determine.
3. Compensation. During Employee's employment under this
Agreement, Employee shall receive base salary compensation in the amount
determined by the Directors' Compensation and Stock Option Committee (the
"Compensation Committee"), payable semi-monthly or in such manner as is
consistent with Washington Mutual's policy relating to salaried employees. In
addition, Employee is entitled to participate in Washington Mutual's Bonus and
Incentive Plan for Executive and Senior Management as adopted by the
Compensation Committee, under which Employee may receive, subject to the terms
of the Plan, a bonus based on Washington Mutual's achievement of specified
financial goals. Employee may also be awarded stock options and/or restricted
stock, as determined by the Compensation Committee. Employee's compensation
shall be reviewed by the Compensation Committee annually and, in the sole
discretion of the Compensation Committee, such compensation may be adjusted
either upward or downward.
-1-
<PAGE> 3
4. Other Benefits. Subject to the respective eligibility
requirements and other terms and provisions of the applicable benefit or
insurance plans (including relevant waiting periods), Employee shall be enrolled
as a participant in all employee benefit plans (including retirement and
insurance plans) available to other officers of Washington Mutual, as the same
may from time to time be adopted or amended. Employee shall also be entitled to
receive such other perquisites as the Chairman, the President or the Board may
from time to time deem appropriate.
5. Performance of Duties. Employee agrees that during his or
her employment with Washington Mutual: (a) Employee will faithfully perform the
duties of such office or offices as he or she may occupy, which duties shall be
such as may be assigned to him or her by the Chairman, the President or the
Board; (b) Employee will devote to the performance of his or her duties all such
time and attention as the Chairman, the President or the Board shall reasonably
require, taking, however, from time to time such reasonable vacations as are
consistent with his or her duties and Washington Mutual policy; and (c) Employee
will not, without the express consent of the Chairman or the Board, become
actively associated with or engaged in any business or activity during the term
of this Agreement other than that of Washington Mutual (excepting of course
customary family and personal activities which may include management of
personal investments so long as it does not entail active involvement in a
business enterprise) and Employee will do nothing inconsistent with his or her
duties to Washington Mutual.
6. Termination.
(a) Washington Mutual may terminate Employee at any time in
its sole discretion. Except as expressly provided in (b) and (c) below, upon
termination Washington Mutual shall have no liability to pay any further
compensation or any other benefit or sum whatsoever to Employee.
(b) Upon termination, Employee's rights under Washington
Mutual's employee pension plans and employee welfare benefit plans (including
medical coverage and insurance plans) shall be determined under the terms of the
plans themselves.
(c) In the event that (i) Employee is terminated for any
reason upon or within three years after a Change in Control (as defined in
Section 12 below) or (ii) Employee resigns for "good cause" (as defined in
Section 12 below) upon or within three years after a Change in Control, then
(but in no other circumstances) Employee shall be entitled to receive, within
five business days after the effective date of such termination or resignation,
from Washington Mutual or its successor, an amount equal to three times
Employee's annual Washington Mutual compensation. In addition, upon such an
event:
(i) all stock options held by Employee shall become
immediately exercisable notwithstanding any provisions in the grant of such
options regarding vesting, and
(ii) the lapse of the restrictions on Employee's
restricted stock shall automatically be accelerated; provided that the provision
in this subsection (ii) shall be effective
-2-
<PAGE> 4
only if (1) the shareholders vote to authorize the Compensation Committee to
accelerate the vesting of restricted stock without regard to the vesting
schedules contained in the Washington Mutual, Inc. Restricted Stock Plan
(whether to submit this issue to a vote of the shareholders is in Washington
Mutual's discretion), and (2) the Compensation Committee then approves the
acceleration; and provided further that the Compensation Committee may exclude
any particular grant(s) of restricted stock from the acceleration provided for
in this subsection (ii), either at the time it approves the acceleration or in
connection with making any particular grant of restricted stock.
(d) For purposes of Section 6(c), Employee's "annual
compensation" shall include all items of compensation other than the value of
stock options and/or restricted stock granted to Employee. Employee's "annual
compensation" shall include the greater of (i) the total of Employee's salary
and target bonus for the calendar year in which the termination occurs (if
established before the termination) or (ii) Employee's salary and actual bonus
for the prior calendar year (annualized if Employee was not employed by
Washington Mutual for the entire previous calendar year). Employee's "annual
compensation" shall also include the amount of the contributions made or
anticipated to have been made on Employee's behalf to Washington Mutual's
benefit plans for the calendar year in which the termination occurs, including
without limitation contributions to pension plans and cafeteria plan.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any payment
described in Section 6(c), together with any other payments or transfers of
property, would constitute a "parachute payment" under Section 280G of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any successor statute then in
effect, the aggregate payments by Washington Mutual or its successor pursuant to
Section 6(c) shall be reduced to an amount that, when combined with any other
payments or transfers of property taken into account under Section 280G, is one
dollar less than the smallest sum that would be considered to be a "parachute
payment." The foregoing notwithstanding, the reduction provided for in this
paragraph shall be made only if it increases the amount received by Employee net
of federal income, FICA and golden parachute excise taxes.
7. Continuation of Medical Insurance. If Employee's employment
by Washington Mutual terminates for any reason (including early retirement)
other than gross misconduct, Employee shall be entitled to continue to
participate in Washington Mutual's self-funded group medical plan, at Employee's
expense, to the extent provided in the plan and under the Consolidated Omnibus
Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA).
8. Death or Disability. If Employee should die or become
disabled at any time during his or her employment hereunder this Agreement shall
terminate and neither Employee nor anyone claiming by, through or under him or
her shall be entitled to any further compensation or other sum under this
Agreement (other than payments made by insurers under policies of life and
disability insurance and any sums which may become available under any employee
benefit plan).
9. Determination of Disability. If there should be any dispute
between the parties as to Employee's physical or mental disability at any time,
such question shall be settled by the opinion of an impartial reputable
physician agreed upon for the purpose by the parties or their
-3-
<PAGE> 5
representatives or, failing agreement within ten days of a written request
therefor by either party to the other, then one designated by the then President
of the Washington State Medical Association. The certificate of any such
physician as to the matter in dispute shall be final and binding on the parties.
10. Confidentiality. Employee agrees that information not
generally known to the public to which Employee has been or will be exposed as a
result of Employee's employment by Washington Mutual is confidential information
that belongs to Washington Mutual. This includes information developed by
Employee, alone or with others, or entrusted to Washington Mutual by its
customers or others. Washington Mutual's confidential information includes,
without limitation, information relating to Washington Mutual's trade secrets,
know-how, procedures, purchasing, accounting, marketing, sales, customers,
clients, employees, business strategies and acquisition strategies. Employee
will hold Washington Mutual's confidential information in strict confidence and
will not disclose or use it except as authorized by Washington Mutual and for
Washington Mutual's benefit.
11. Possession of Materials. Employee agrees that upon
conclusion of employment or request by Washington Mutual, Employee shall turn
over to Washington Mutual all documents, files, office supplies and any other
material or work product in Employee's possession or control that were created
pursuant to or derived from Employee's services for Washington Mutual.
12. Change in Control. For purposes of this Agreement, "Change

13. Title. Although it is the intention of the parties that during the
term of this Agreement Employee shall be an executive employee of Washington
Mutual with the title and duties described in Section 2 above, it is
specifically understood that the employment and the nature and situs of services
to be rendered shall be subject to the authority of the Chairman, the President
or the Board to change the same from time to time and at any time and to provide
for the operation of Washington Mutual as specified by applicable banking laws
and regulations.
14. Arbitration. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or Employee's employment shall be submitted to binding arbitration
(instead of being decided in court by a judge or jury) as follows:
(a) Each party shall select one neutral arbitrator and the two
arbitrators shall together select a third neutral arbitrator. If either party
fails to promptly select an arbitrator, or if the two party-selected arbitrators
do not promptly select the third arbitrator, the missing arbitrator(s) shall be
selected by the Presiding Judge of the King County Superior Court. Each of the
arbitrators shall be either a present or former senior executive or board member
of a banking, financial or insurance company doing business in the State of
Washington or a member of the Washington Bar with at least ten years experience
in banking, financial or corporate law.
(b) The arbitration shall proceed in Seattle under Washington law.
To the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement, the arbitrators shall follow
the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") Employment Dispute Resolution Rules
effective on November 1, 1993, provided that the arbitration shall not be filed
with or administered by the AAA or any other arbitration administrator. The
arbitration shall be commenced by serving a written demand for arbitration on
the other party, either personally or by both regular first class mail and
certified mail, return receipt requested.
(c) All pre-hearing matters shall be decided by the third
arbitrator. Discovery shall be permitted only upon order of the third arbitrator
after a showing of good cause (it being the
-6-
<PAGE> 8
intent of the parties to limit discovery to that which is reasonably necessary
for preparation and presentation of this case).
(d) In making the decision and award, the arbitrators shall apply
applicable substantive law. On issues of state law, the substantive law (not
including choice of law rules) of the state of Washington shall control. The
arbitrators may award injunctive relief or any other remedy that would have been
available in court. If a court, applying applicable substantive law, would be
authorized to award punitive or exemplary damages, the arbitrators shall have
the same power, but the arbitrators otherwise shall not award punitive or
exemplary damages. All statutes of limitations that would apply in court shall
apply in the arbitration. Questions about whether a dispute must be arbitrated
shall be determined by the arbitrators. The arbitrators may require the losing
party to pay some or all of the costs of the arbitration and the prevailing
party's reasonable attorneys' fees.
(e) Because of the interstate nature of Washington Mutual's
business, this arbitration agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act,
9 U.S.C. Section 1 et seq. (the "FAA"). The provisions of the FAA (and to the
extent not preempted by the FAA, the provisions of Washington's arbitration
statute, Chapter 7.04 RCW) are incorporated into this Agreement to the extent
not inconsistent with the other terms of this Agreement.
(f) The decision of the arbitrators shall be binding upon the
parties and shall not be subject to judicial review, absent fraud or collusion
involving the arbitrators, and judgment may be entered upon the award in the
King County Superior Court if the same is not paid within thirty (30) days after
the written decision of the arbitrators has been delivered to the parties.
(g) The disputes that must be submitted to arbitration under this
Agreement include, but are not limited to, pay disputes, wrongful termination
disputes and discrimination, harassment or civil rights disputes, and include
disputes with (i) Washington Mutual's direct and indirect subsidiaries and (ii)
the employees and agents of Washington Mutual and of its direct and indirect
subsidiaries so long as the employee or agent with whom the Employee has the
dispute is also bound by or consents to this agreement to arbitrate.
(h) Either party may request a court to issue such temporary or
interim relief (including temporary restraining orders and preliminary
injunctions) as may be appropriate, either before or after arbitration is
commenced. The temporary or interim relief shall remain in effect pending the
outcome of arbitration. No such request shall be a waiver of the right to submit
any dispute to arbitration.
15. Miscellaneous.
(a) This Agreement is the entire agreement between the parties and
may not be modified or abrogated orally or by course of dealing, but only by
another instrument in writing duly executed by the parties. This Agreement
replaces and supersedes all prior agreements between the parties on these
subjects, including without limitation that certain Employment Agreement dated
-7-
<PAGE> 9
as of January 1, 1994 between Employee, Washington Mutual Savings Bank and
Washington Mutual, Inc.
(b) This Agreement has been drafted in contemplation of and shall
be construed in accordance with and governed by Washington law. Jurisdiction and
venue of any action in connection with this Agreement shall be had exclusively
in the Superior Court for King County, Washington or the U.S. District Court in
Seattle.
(c) In the event of any litigation arising out of this Agreement
the losing party agrees to pay the prevailing party's reasonable attorneys' fees
and costs including those incurred on appeal.
(d) Employee acknowledges that this Agreement has been drafted by
counsel for Washington Mutual, and that Employee has not relied upon such
counsel with respect to this Agreement.
(e) If a court of competent jurisdiction or governmental authority
declares any term or provision hereof invalid, unenforceable or unacceptable,
the remaining terms and provisions hereof shall be unimpaired and the invalid,
unenforceable or unacceptable term or provision shall be replaced by a term or
provision that is valid, enforceable and acceptable and that comes closest to
expressing the intention of the invalid, unenforceable or unacceptable term or
provision.
(f) Employee may not assign, pledge or encumber his interest in
this Agreement or any part thereof without the prior written consent of
Washington Mutual.
DATED for reference purposes the 1st day of January 1997 but
