        The following is a reconciliation  of the weighted average common shares
        for the basic and diluted earnings per share  computations in accordance
        with Statement of Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128:

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation
         ---------------------

        The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements of the
        Company have been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q.
        Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and footnotes
        required  by  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for  complete
        financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments
        (consisting  solely of normal recurring  adjustments)  which are, in the
        opinion of management,  necessary for a fair presentation of results for
        the interim periods.
<PAGE>
        The results of operations  for the three and nine months ended March 31,
        1999 are not  necessarily  indicative  of the results to be expected for
        the year ending June 30,  1999.  The  unaudited  consolidated  financial
        statements  and notes  thereto  should be read in  conjunction  with the
        audited  financial  statements and notes thereto for the year ended June
        30, 1998.

        In February 1999,  the Company  formed HWM. HWM is a strategic  alliance
        between  the Bank  (51%  owner)  and Los  Padres  Bank  (49%  owner),  a
        federally  chartered  savings bank located in  California.  HWM provides
        trust  and   investment   management   services  for   individuals   and
        institutions.  The accompanying  unaudited consolidated balance sheet as
        of March 31, 1999 includes 100 percent of the assets and  liabilities of
        HWM and the  ownership  of Los  Padres  Bank is  recorded  as  "Minority
        interest" The results of operations  for the three and nine months ended
        March 31, 1999  include 100 percent of the  revenues and expenses of HWM
        from the date of  formation  and the  ownership  of Los  Padres  Bank is
        recorded as "Minority interest" net of taxes.

Note 3 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements
         --------------------------------

        The Company adopted SFAS No. 130,  Comprehensive Income,  effective July
        1, 1998.  It  requires  that  changes in the  amounts of certain  items,
        including  gains  and  losses  on  certain  securities,  be shown in the
        financial  statements.  SFAS No. 130 does not require a specific  format
        for the financial statement in which  comprehensive  income is reported,
        but does require that an amount representing total comprehensive  income
        be reported in that statement.  All prior year financial statements have
        been reclassified for comparative purposes.

        The following is a summary of the Company's total  comprehensive  income
        (loss) for the interim three and nine month periods ended March 31, 1999
        and 1998 under SFAS No. 130:

        In June 1997, SFAS No. 131,  Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise
        and Related Information,  was issued. This Statement will change the way
        public companies report  information about segments of their business in
        their annual  financial  statements and requires them to report selected
        segment  information in their quarterly  reports issued to shareholders.
        It also requires entity-wide disclosures about the products and services
        an entity provides,  the material countries in which it holds assets and
        reports revenues, and its major customers. SFAS No. 131 is effective for
        fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company will include
        the appropriate  segment  information  beginning in the annual financial
        statements for the year ending June 30, 1999, and all quarterly  reports
        thereafter.  Management has not yet  determined  the effect,  if any, of
        SFAS No. 131 on the consolidated financial statements.

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
        SFAS  No.  133,   Accounting  for   Derivative  and  Similar   Financial
        Instruments and for Hedging  Activities,  was issued in June 1998 and is
        effective for all fiscal  quarters of all fiscal years  beginning  after
        June 15, 1999.  This  statement  establishes  accounting  and  reporting
        standards for hedging  activities.  It requires that an entity recognize
        all  derivatives  as either  assets or  liabilities  in the statement of
        financial  condition and measure  those  instruments  at fair value.  If
        certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically  designated
        as a fair value hedge, a cash flow hedge, or a hedge of foreign currency
        exposure.  The  accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative
        (that  is,  gains  and  losses)  depends  on  the  intended  use  of the
        derivative  and  the  resulting  designation.  Management  has  not  yet
        quantified the effect of the new standard on the consolidated  financial
        statements.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Financial Condition

        At March  31,  1999,  the  Company's  total  assets  amounted  to $538.3
million,  as compared to $484.4  million at June 30, 1998.  The $53.9 million or
11.1%  increase in total assets  during the nine months ended March 31, 1999 was
primarily the result of a $97.4 million  increase in net loans  receivable which
was partially offset by a $47.7 million decrease in securities held for trading.
The increase in net loans receivable  reflected the Company's continuing efforts
to increase its retail banking  operations,  particularly the origination  (both
directly and through correspondent  mortgage banking companies) of single-family
residential loans and business loans through its commercial division. Securities
held for trading were reduced in accordance  with the loan growth.  The increase
in the  Company's  assets  from June 30,  1998 to March 31, 1999 was funded by a
$143.6  million  or 80.5%  increase  in  deposits  and a $14.0  million or 53.8%
increase in Federal Home Loan Bank  advances  which were  partially  offset by a
$104.7  million  or 43.6%  decrease  in  securities  sold  under  agreements  to
repurchase.

        Minority interest  increased $966,000 due to the formation of Harrington
Wealth  Management  (HWM). The financial  statements as of and for the three and
nine month periods ended March 31, 1999 include all of the assets,  liabilities,
and results of operations for HWM. The minority interest  represents the portion
of the  assets,  liabilities,  and  results of  operations  attributable  to the
ownership interest of Los Padres Bank.

        At March 31, 1999, the Company's  stockholders' equity amounted to $19.7
million,  as compared to $22.7 million at June 30, 1998.  The 13.2%  decrease in
stockholders'  equity  was  primarily  due  to the  $2.0  million  of  net  loss
recognized during the nine month period,  the quarterly $0.03 per share payments
of cash dividends  totaling  $290,000,  and the repurchase of stock for $784,000
which were  partially  offset by $73,000 from  treasury  stock  purchased by the
Company's  employee stock  ownership  plan. At March 31, 1999, the Bank's Tier 1
core capital amounted to $32.9 million or 6.14% of adjusted total assets,  which
exceeded the minimum 4.0% requirement by $11.5 million. Additionally, as of such
date,  the Bank's  risk-based  capital  totaled $33.7 million or 12.44% of total
risk-adjusted  assets,  which  exceeded  the minimum 8.0%  requirement  by $12.0
million.


Results of Operations

        General.  The Company  reported  earnings of $623,000 or $0.19 per share
and losses of $2.0  million or $0.62 per share  during the three and nine months
ended March 31,  1999,  as compared to losses of $241,000 or $0.07 per share and
$532,000 or $0.16 per share during the prior  comparable  periods.  The $864,000
increase in earnings  during the three months ended March 31, 1999,  as compared
to the same  period in the  prior  year,  was  primarily  due to a $1.3  million
increase in realized and unrealized net gains on securities held for trading and
a $686,000  increase in net  interest  income which were  partially  offset by a
$562,000 increase in the Company's income tax provision,  a $467,000 increase in
operating expenses and a $169,000 increase in the provision for loan losses. The
$1.5 million  decrease in earnings  during the nine months ended March 31, 1999,
as compared to the same period in the prior year,  was  primarily  due to a $1.5
million  increase in  operating  expenses,  a $414,000  decrease in realized and
unrealized net gains on securities held for trading,  and a $414,000 increase in
the provision for

                                      -7-

loan losses which were partially offset by a $932,000  decrease in the Company's
income tax provision.

(1)  Interest  rate  spread  is the  difference  between  interest  income  as a
percentage of  interest-earning  assets and interest  expense as a percentage of
interest-bearing liabilities.
(2)  Net   interest   margin  is  net   interest   income   divided  by  average
interest-earning assets.
(3) The  efficiency  ratio is total  other  expense as a  percentage  of the net
interest  income after  provision for loan losses plus other  income,  excluding
gains and losses on securities held for trading.


        Interest  Income.  Interest income  increased by $174,000 or 2.0% during
the three  months  ended March 31,  1999,  as compared to the same period in the
prior year.  This  increase  was  primarily  due to a $2.2  million  increase in
interest income from the loan portfolio and a $461,000  decrease in net interest
expense on interest rate contracts maintained in the trading portfolio offset by
a $2.5  million  decrease in interest  from  securities  held for  trading.  The
increase in interest  income on the loan  portfolio  was a direct  result of the
$126.4  million  increase in the level of the average loan  portfolio  which was
offset by a $140.0 million decrease in the level of the average  securities held
for trading portfolio.

                                      -8-
<PAGE>
        Interest income increased by $1.4 million or 5.5% during the nine months
ended March 31,  1999,  as  compared to the same period in the prior year.  This
increase was  primarily due to a $5.3 million  increase in interest  income from
the loan portfolio and a $437,000  decrease on net interest  expense on interest
rate contracts  maintained in the trading  portfolio which were partially offset
by a $4.1  million  decrease in interest  income from the  Company's  investment
portfolio and a $252,000 decrease in interest income from deposits. The increase
in  interest  income on the loan  portfolio  was a direct  result of the  $104.1
million  increase in the level of the average loan portfolio which was partially
offset by a 34 basis point decline in the interest yield earned. The decrease in
interest income from the Company's  investment portfolio was a result of a $61.6
million  decrease in the level of the  average  investment  portfolio  partially
offset by a 25 basis point increase in the interest  yield earned.  The decrease
in interest income from deposits was a result of a $4.0 million  decrease in the
level of the average interest-bearing  deposits and an 89 basis point decline in
the interest yield earned.

        Interest  Expense.  Interest  expense  decreased by $512,000  during the
three months  ended March 31, 1999,  as compared to the same period in the prior
year.  This decrease was primarily due to a 39 basis point  decrease in the cost
of  interest-bearing  liabilities  resulting  from an  overall  decrease  in the
wholesale and retail funding costs.

        Interest expense  increased by $1.6 million during the nine months ended
March 31, 1999, as compared to the same period in the prior year.  This increase
was  primarily  due  to a  $41.5  million  increase  in  the  level  of  average
interest-bearing liabilities.

        Net Interest Income.  Net interest income increased by $686,000 or 61.6%
during the three months ended March 31, 1999,  as compared to the same period in
the prior year.  Net  interest  income  decreased by $164,000 or 4.1% during the
nine months  ended March 31,  1999,  as compared to the same period in the prior
year.

        Provision for Loan Losses.  During the three and nine months ended March
31,  1999,  the  Company  increased  the  general  allowance  for loan losses by
$169,000 and $414,000, respectively, in response to the substantial loan growth.
Delinquencies and loan write-offs continue to be minimal, and the non-performing
assets remain  stable.  No additional  provision for loan losses was made during
the three and nine months ended March 31, 1998.

        Other Income (Loss).  Total other income (loss) amounted to $1.6 million
and  ($725,000)  during  the three and nine  months  ended  March 31,  1999,  as
compared to $206,000 and ($422,000)  during the respective  periods in the prior
year.  This income (loss)  principally  represents  the net market value gain or
loss (realized or unrealized) on securities held for trading,  offset by the net
market value gain or loss  (realized or  unrealized)  on interest rate contracts
used for hedging such securities.  Management's goal is to attempt to offset any
change in the market value of its  securities  portfolio  with the change in the
market value of the interest rate risk management  contracts and mortgage-backed
derivative  securities  utilized  by the  Company  to hedge  its  interest  rate
exposure.  In addition,  management attempts to produce a positive hedged excess
return (i.e.  total return,  which  includes  interest  income plus realized and
unrealized net  gains/losses  on  investments  minus the one month LIBOR funding
cost for the period) on the investment portfolio using  option-adjusted  pricing
analysis. 

        During the three  months ended March 31,  1999,  the Company  recognized
$5.4  million of realized  gains on the sale of  securities  and hedges held for
trading which were partially offset by

                                      -9-
<PAGE>
$4.0 million of  unrealized  losses on  securities  and hedges held for trading.
During the nine months ended March 31, 1999, the Company recognized  $871,000 of
realized  losses on the sale of  securities  and  hedges  held for  trading  and
$175,000 of unrealized losses on securities and hedges held for trading.  Losses
on hedge contracts  during the six months ended December 31, 1998  substantially
exceeded  gains on  mortgage  investments,  as the  spreads  between  comparable
duration U.S. Treasury and mortgage rates increased to the highest level in many
years. The primary reasons for the  underperformance of mortgages were (1) fears
of an unprecedented wave of mortgage refinancings and (2) dramatically increased
volatility in many financial  markets  (stocks,  corporate  bonds,  and emerging
markets).  This  volatility  caused a flight  to  quality  that  increased  risk
premiums and widened spreads to comparable  Treasury  securities in all of these
markets,  including  mortgage  securities.  During the  latter  part of the nine
months  ended March 31,  1999,  the spreads on mortgage  securities  narrowed as
markets  stabilized.  The Company also executed  trades  between  adjustable and
fixed rate  securities on a hedged basis.  These events  resulted in hedge gains
exceeding  the  losses  on the  mortgage  investments  as  rates  rose  and in a
significant improvement in performance.

        During the three and nine  months  ended  March 31,  1998,  the  Company
recognized $2.2 million and $931,000 of realized gains on the sale of securities
and hedge  contracts held for trading which were offset by $2.1 million and $1.6
million of unrealized losses on securities held for trading.

        Other  Expense.  Total other  expense  amounted to $2.2 million and $6.0
million  during the three and nine months ended March 31,  1999,  as compared to
$1.7 million and $4.5 million during the  respective  periods in the prior year.
The increase in total other  expense was due to increases in salaries,  premises
and equipment expense,  and other operating  expenses,  which were primarily the
result of the Company's retail growth  (including the opening of four new branch
offices in the Indianapolis, Indiana area). Furthermore, the Company added a new
commercial  loan division and an  additional  branch in Mission,  Kansas,  which
opened in August of 1998. In the March 1999 quarter,  expenses also  reflected a
portion of the training and start-up  expenses for the FISERV  VISION  operating
system conversion and other Year 2000 compliance expenses.

        Income Tax  Provision  (Benefit).  The  Company  recorded  an income tax
provision  of $411,000  during the three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared
to an income tax benefit of $151,000  during the respective  period in the prior
year.  For the nine months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,  the Company  recorded
income tax benefits of $1.3 million and $378,000, respectively.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

        The Bank is required under  applicable  federal  regulations to maintain
specified  levels of  "liquid"  investments  as  defined by the Office of Thrift
Supervision  ("OTS"). As of November 24, 1997, the required level of such liquid
investments  was changed from 5% to 4% of certain  liabilities as defined by the
OTS.  In addition to the change in the  percentage  of required  level of liquid
assets,  the OTS also modified its definition of investments that are considered
liquid. As a result of this change,  the level of assets eligible for regulatory
liquidity calculations increased considerably.



                                      -10-
<PAGE>
        The total eligible  regulatory  liquidity of the Bank was 13.3% at March
31, 1999, as compared to 15.6% and 5.3% at June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
At March 31, 1999, the Bank's  average  "liquid"  assets  totaled  approximately
$74.7  million,  which was $52.2  million in excess of the  current  OTS minimum
requirement.

        At  March  31,  1999,  the  Company's  total  approved  originated  loan
commitments outstanding amounted to $5.1 million, and the unused lines of credit
outstanding totaled $10.1 million. At the same date, commitments  outstanding to
purchase  investment  securities  and loans were $70.0 million and $2.0 million,
respectively.  Also at March 31,  1999,  the  Company  had  commitments  to sell
investment securities totaling $10.0 million.  Certificates of deposit scheduled
to mature in one year or less at March 31,  1999  totaled  $138.5  million.  The
Company believes that it has adequate resources to fund ongoing commitments such
as investment security and loan purchases as well as deposit account withdrawals
and loan commitments.


"Safe Harbor"  Statement under the Private  Securities  Litigation Reform Act of
1995

        In addition to historical  information,  forward-looking  statements are
contained  herein that are subject to risks and  uncertainties  that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the  forward-looking
statements.  Factors  that  could  cause  future  results  to vary from  current
expectations, include, but are not limited to, the impact of economic conditions
(both  generally  and more  specifically  in the  markets  in which the  Company
operates),  the impact of  competition  for the Company's  customers  from other
providers  of  financial  services,  the impact of  government  legislation  and
regulation  (which  changes  from time to time and over which the Company has no
control),  and other risks detailed in this Form 10-Q and in the Company's other
Securities and Exchange  Commission (SEC) filings.  Readers are cautioned not to
place  undue  reliance  on  these  forward-looking  statements,   which  reflect
management's  analysis  only as of the date hereof.  The Company  undertakes  no
obligation  to publicly  revise  these  forward-looking  statements,  to reflect

carefully review the risk factors described in other documents the Company files
from time to time with the SEC.


Year 2000 Disclosure

         The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer  programs  being  written
using two digits rather than four to define the  applicable  year. The Company's
computer  programs  and those of  third-party  computer  related  providers  may
recognize  a date using "00" as the year 1900  rather  than the year 2000.  This
situation could result in system failures or miscalculations  causing disruption
of  operations  that  could  affect  the  ability  of  the  Company  to  operate
effectively and service customers.

                                      -11-
<PAGE>
I.    THE COMPANY'S STATE OF READINESS

         The Company is  preparing  for the year 2000 by testing and  evaluating
both its information technology (IT) and non-information technology systems. The
Company  does not have any mission  critical  processes  that are  dependent  on
non-IT systems.  The non-IT systems,  such as the telephone  system,  are either
currently  compliant or are expected to be compliant in fiscal year 1999. The IT
systems used by the Company have been or are being tested. The components of the
IT systems  being  examined  are:  1) personal  computers  (PCs),  hardware  and
software, 2) data service bureau, and 3) other service providers.

         Hardware and software on all PCs have been inventoried and tested.  The
limited  number  of PCs and  software  that were not year  2000  compliant  were
replaced in the first quarter of calendar year 1999.

         The  Company  has  converted  its data  service  provider to the Vision
platform  supplied by FISERV.  The conversion was accomplished in April of 1999.
FISERV has provided the Company with  assurances that the Vision product is Year
2000  compliant.  One hundred sixty (160) FISERV clients have already tested the
Vision  platform and did not find any material Year 2000  problems.  The Company
will be conducting  tests in May 1999 on the Vision  software  system to confirm
this compliance.

         Other service  providers,  such as the Company's  financial advisors or
the FHLB of  Indianapolis,  are either  Year 2000  compliant  or are keeping the
Company apprised of their progress towards being Year 2000 compliant. As part of
its Year 2000  compliance  program,  the Company will be monitoring the vendors'
progress  toward  compliance  and, if necessary,  testing systems to help ensure
compliance.


II.      THE COSTS TO ADDRESS THE COMPANY'S YEAR 2000 ISSUES

         The  limited  number  of PCs and  software  that  were  not  Year  2000
compliant  were replaced in the first quarter of calendar year 1999. The cost of
replacing these machines and software was  approximately  $43,500 in capitalized
fixed assets in fiscal year 1999.


III.     THE RISKS OF THE COMPANY'S YEAR 2000 ISSUES

         The Company has established  parameters and processes for management to
identify material customers,  evaluate their  preparedness,  assess their credit
risk and  implement  controls to manage the risk arising  from their  failure to
properly  address  Year 2000  technology  issues.  The Company  faces  increased
credit,  liquidity,  or counterparty  trading risk when customers encounter Year
2000-related problems.  Customers that must be evaluated and monitored are those
that,  if  adversely  impacted  by Year  2000  technology  issues,  represent  a
significant  financial exposure to the Company in terms of either credit loss or
liquidity.  The organizations that have been identified as material customers of
the Company will be monitored  because of their reliance on technology for their
successful  business  operations.

         Failure of borrowers,  counterparties or servicers to address Year 2000
problems may increase  credit risk to the Company through the inability of these
parties to meet the terms of

                                      -12-
<PAGE>
their  contracts  and make timely  payments  of  principal  and  interest to the
Company.  Liquidity  risk may result if  depositors,  lenders or  counterparties
experience Year 2000-related business disruption or operational failures and are
unable to provide funds or fulfill funding  commitments to the Company.  Capital
market  counterparties,  such as trading counterparties or interest rate swap or
interest rate cap/floor counterparties, provide contracts that allow the Company
to enter into  forward  commitments  to  purchase or sell  securities  or to use
hedges to reduce  interest  rate risk.  Liquidity  and credit risk may result if
capital market counterparties are unable to fulfill contractual  commitments due
to operational problems caused by the Year 2000 date change.

         In those  cases  where  the  Company  is not fully  satisfied  that its
counterparties will be Year 2000 ready,  mitigating controls will be established
such  as  early   termination   agreements,   additional   collateral,   netting
arrangements, and third-party payment arrangements or guarantees. In cases where
the Company has a high degree of uncertainty regarding a counterparty's  ability
to address its Year 2000 problems,  the Company will avoid all transactions with
that  counterparty  that  mature on or after  January  1,  2000 with  liquidity,
credit,  or  settlement  risk.  The Company will not resume  normal  transaction
activities until the  counterparty has demonstrated  that it is prepared for the
Year 2000.


IV.      THE COMPANY'S CONTINGENCY PLAN

DATA SERVICE BUREAU
- -------------------

         In the event the data service  bureau used by the Bank fails to operate
satisfactorily  after  the turn of the  century,  the Bank  would be  forced  to
operate  on a manual  system  until a  conversion  could be made to a  different
service bureau or the existing  service bureau  corrects its problems.  The Bank
would establish  ledger cards for each customer  account and would manually post
transactions  to the cards each day.  Transactions  would  also be  batched  and
manually posted to the general ledger. The ledger cards would be balanced to the
general  ledger  frequently to provide some  assurance that the manual system is
functioning accurately.

         The Bank would have to make some temporary  changes in its product menu
during the time it was  operating on a manual  system.  For  instance,  the Bank
would   probably   discontinue   originating   mortgage  loans  because  of  the
complexities  involved with them.  The Bank would also stop opening new checking
accounts.  The Bank might have to convert  its  existing  checking  accounts  to
savings  accounts  (with  appropriate  advance  notice  and  disclosures  to the
customers) so that the Bank could more efficiently  process these accounts.  The
Bank would also have to put a temporary  moratorium on ATM transactions  because
the Bank would be effectively running in an off-line mode.

         Undoubtedly, the Bank would experience significant deposit run-off were
the Bank to function in such a limited capacity for any length of time. However,
the Bank has a substantial  mortgage-backed  security  portfolio  which provides
ready liquidity should the need arise to liquidate deposits.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES
- ---------------------

         The Company has received  assurances  that the major brokers with which
it trades are Year 2000 compliant. Some of the smaller regional brokers have yet
to provide these  assurances.  Beginning in November  1999,  the Company will no
longer enter into any transactions  with regional brokers that are not Year 2000
compliant. In this way, the Company will control its exposure to Year 2000 risks
with these brokers. After the turn of the millennium, the Company will carefully
evaluate regional brokers individually before resuming business with them.

        Most of the  Company's  securities  are in  safekeeping  at the  FHLB of
Indianapolis,  which is progressing  towards being year 2000  compliant.  If the
FHLB is not  Year  2000  compliant  in  1999,  the  Company  will  engage  a new
safekeeping agent that is compliant.  Similarly,  if any assets are pledged with
brokers,  the Company will verify well before the end of 1999 that those brokers
are already Year 2000  compliant  and if not,  these assets will be pledged only
with Year 2000 compliant brokers.

PERSONAL COMPUTERS
- ------------------

         By the end of the first quarter of calendar year 1999,  the Company had
replaced  or  upgraded  all of its  personal  computers  that  failed  Year 2000
compliance  tests.  Thus,  it is  expected  that  the  Company's  PCs will be in
compliance  when the  century  turns.  The  Company  has  previously  tested the
software  used on its PCs,  and those  software  packages  that did not properly
handle the Year 2000 have been replaced.

OTHER VENDORS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS
- -----------------------------------

         The Company is closely  monitoring all of its other vendors and service
providers to determine if they will be Year 2000 compliant on a timely basis. If
any vendors or service  providers have not yet become Year 2000 compliant by the
end of the second quarter of calendar year 1999, the Bank will  immediately find
a  replacement  vendor or service  provider  who is  compliant.  It is possible,
although  unlikely,  that  increased cost to the  institution  could result from
engaging replacement vendors.

GENERAL
- -------

        The  costs of the  project  and the date on which the  Company  plans to
complete  the Year  2000  compliance  program  are  based on  management's  best
estimates  which were derived  utilizing  numerous  assumptions of future events
including  the  continued   availability  of  certain  resources,   third  party
modification  plans and other factors.  However,  there can be no guarantee that
these  estimates will be achieved,  and actual  results could differ  materially
from these estimates.

                    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES
                                ABOUT MARKET RISK

        The OTS requires  each thrift  institution  to calculate  the  estimated
change in the institution's  market value of portfolio equity (MVPE) assuming an
instantaneous,  parallel  shift in the Treasury  yield curve of 100 to 300 basis
points either up or down in 100 basis point  increments.  MVPE is defined as the
net  present  value  of  an  institution's  existing  assets,   liabilities  and
off-balance sheet instruments. The OTS permits institutions to perform this MVPE
analysis using their own internal model based upon reasonable  assumptions.  The
Company has contracted with Smith Breeden Associates,  Inc. for the provision of
consulting  services  regarding,  among  other  things,  the  management  of its
investments  and  borrowings,  the  pricing  of loans and  deposits,  the use of
various  financial  instruments  to reduce  interest rate risk and assistance in
performing the required  calculation  of the  sensitivity of its market value to
changes in interest  rates. In estimating the market value of mortgage loans and
mortgage-backed  securities, the Company utilizes various prepayment assumptions
which vary,  in  accordance  with  historical  experience,  based upon the term,
interest rate and other factors with respect to the underlying loans.

        The  following  table  sets  forth  at March  31,  1999,  the  estimated
sensitivity  of the  Bank's  MVPE to  parallel  yield  curve  shifts  using  the
Company's  internal  market value  calculation.  This analysis  incorporates  an
option adjusted cashflow discount model for all financial assets and liabilities
other than fixed rate  mortgages,  loans,  and  securities.  For these loans and
securities,  the Company  evaluates  the market value changes using time varying
empirical (TVE)  elasticity  analysis.  This analysis  measures the market value
changes of the mortgage  investment based on historical  price  relationships to
changes  in  Treasury  rates  and  other  variables.  Management  believes  this
empirical  based analysis is a valuable and more accurate tool in estimating the
level of net market value changes of the mortgage  related  investment  and loan
portfolios  with  fixed  rates  and  will  be  expanding  it to  other  mortgage
instruments in the future.

The Company  actively  manages the interest  rate risk of the balance  sheet and
investment portfolio by dynamically  rebalancing the hedges on a frequent basis.
This  rebalancing  is  undertaken  to further  reduce the interest rate risk for
large rate  changes.  Since the  following  analysis  is based on  instantaneous
changes in rates,  the benefits of the dynamic  rebalancing  process on interest
rate risk reduction are, therefore, not reflected in this analysis.

        The  table  set  forth  below  does not  purport  to show the  impact of
interest  rate  changes  on  the  Company's  equity  under  generally   accepted
accounting  principles.  Market value changes only impact the  Company's  income
statement or the balance  sheet (1) to the extent the affected  instruments  are
marked  to  market  and (2) over the life of the  instruments  as an  impact  on
recorded yields.

              January 25, 1999



              Mr. Lawrence T. Loeser
              960 Coventry Drive
              Lake Forest, IL  60045

              Dear Larry:

              We  are   extremely   pleased  and  excited   about  your  joining
              Harrington's  senior  management  team to lead the development and
              ongoing  management of the North Carolina Bank. In this letter,  I
              have  provided the terms of our offer to you as we have  discussed
              over the last week.

              Position: President of Harrington Bank of North Carolina reporting
              to the Chief Executive Officer of Harrington Bank. Also, upon your
              election by the Board of Directors of  Harrington  Bank,  you will
              become a director of  Harrington  Bank.  This  election  will take
              place at the first  board  meeting  held  after your start date of
              employment.

              Base  Compensation:  $150,000 per annum.  This salary will be paid
              over 26 bi-weekly pay periods from the start of employment.

              Stock  Options:  5,000  Options  on HFGI  Stock  struck at $10 per
              share.  These  options will have a 10 year term and will vest at a
              rate  of 20%  per  year  from  the  date  of  grant,  expected  on
              Harrington  Financial  Group,  Inc.'s  first  Board  or  Executive
              Committee  Meeting  held after your start date of  employment.  We
              will embody these terms in a stock option agreement between us.

              Bonus:  A  guaranteed  first year bonus of $50,000,  paid after 12
              months of employment with the Bank. A partial amount of this bonus
              may be  paid  at the  Bank's  discretion  on an  earlier  date  in
              accordance with the Bank's regular annual compensation reviews for
              senior management, normally conducted in month of December.

Employment   Understanding:   In  the  event  that  Harrington  terminates  your
employment  for reasons other than your willful  misconduct or gross  negligence
(or in the event you are reassigned to a position of lesser  responsibility  and
you decide to terminate your  employment)  within the first  eighteen  months of
your employment,  Harrington Bank agrees to continue to pay your base salary (at
a rate of $411.33 per calendar day) until eighteen  months have passed from your
initial date of employment with Harrington.

Any tax due by you on income related to this  compensation will be borne by you.
This  Employment  Understanding  agreement will expire eighteen months after the
date on which your employment with Harrington begins.

Benefits:  Standard  Harrington  Bank  Employee  benefits  available to a senior
manager (Vice President or above).

House Hunting: Harrington Bank will pay the reasonable expenses for a maximum of
three trips to North  Carolina  for house  hunting  purposes,  with one of those
trips  including  all family  members.  Any tax due by you on income  related to
these trips will be borne by you.

Interim Living Expenses: Harrington Bank will pay for interim lodging, meal, and
reasonable commuting expenses acceptable to the Bank from the start date of your
employment  until your children's last day of school for the 1999 school year or
June 30, 1999, whichever is earlier. The tax due by you on any income related to
interim living will be borne by you.

Moving Expenses:  Harrington Bank will pay for reasonable  expenses to move your
household  possessions  and travel to North  Carolina  not to exceed  $15,000 in
total.  Any personal income tax related to  reimbursement  for this move will be
borne by you.

Commission on the Sale of Your Home in Illinois:  Harrington  will reimburse you
for the  commission  cost on the sale of your  home not to  exceed  5.25% of the
sales price,  as evidenced by a broker  statement  and this  commission  will be
grossed up by your actual  total tax rate not to exceed  35%.  If you  terminate
your  employment with Harrington Bank within 18 months from your start date, you
will be  responsible  for  reimbursing  Harrington  Bank for a  portion  of this
commission plus the gross-up  amount for taxes.  The amount owed Harrington Bank
will be  calculated by taking the total amount of the  commission  plus gross-up
divided by 547 days.  The resulting  amount will be multiplied by the difference
between  547 and the  number  of  calendar  days  from  start of  employment  to
resignation.
