normal recurring nature.  The consolidated financial statements include the
Company's wholly owned subsidiaries, First Savings Bank of Washington (FSBW)
and Inland Empire Bank (IEB).  The balance sheet data at March 31, 1996, is
derived from the Company's audited financial statements.  Certain information
and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally  accepted accounting principles have been omitted
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March
31, 1996 (File No. 0-26584) of the Company.  Certain amounts in the prior
period's financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current
period's presentation. 

Effective April 1, 1996 the Company's subsidiary banks adopted SFAS No. 122,
Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights, which amended  SFAS No. 65.  SFAS
No. 122 requires the Banks to allocate the total cost of all mortgage loans
sold, whether originated or purchased, to mortgage servicing rights and the
loans (without the mortgage servicing rights ) based on their relative fair
values if it is practicable to estimate those fair values.  If such allocation
is not deemed practicable, the entire cost of acquiring the loans should be
allocated to the loans with no cost allocated to mortgage servicing rights. 
SFAS No. 122 is applied prospectively.  The adoption of this statement has not
materially impacted the Company's results of operation or financial condition.

Note 2:     Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share for the quarter and six months ended September 30, 1996 are
based on weighted average common shares outstanding of 9,806,868 and 9,820,364
respectively.  The total issued shares of 10,910,625 have been adjusted for
the weighted average unallocated shares under the ESOP plan of 820,691 shares
for the quarter and 825,132 shares for the six months ended September 30, 1996
and for the net reduction of outstanding shares reissued from treasury stock 
for the Management Recognition Development Plan of 141,064 shares for the
quarter and 71,336 shares for the six months ended September 30, 1996.  The
weighted average shares for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 was also
reduced for the weighted average shares held in treasury stock of 142,002
shares  for the quarter and 193,793 shares for the six months ended September
30, 1996.

Earnings per share information is not meaningful for any periods prior to
December 31,1995, inclusive, since the Company's stock was  issued on October
31, 1995.  Earnings per share are not presented for periods prior to
conversion to stock form, as FSBW was a wholly-owned subsidiary of a mutual
holding company.

Note 4:     Significant Events

During the quarter ended September 30, 1996 the US Congress passed legislation
requiring that all financial institutions with deposits insured by the Savings
Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) pay a special assessment to recapitalize the
SAIF.  This assessment resulted in the Company's SAIF insured subsidiary,
First Savings Bank of Washington (FSBW), recording a $2.4 million  expense
representing the  Company's  share of an industry-wide special assessment to
recapitalize the SAIF, which is administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (FDIC).  The assessment was calculated at .657% of insured
deposits as of March 31, 1995.  The special assessment, charged to every
depository institution in the country with deposits insured by SAIF, was
contained in the US Congressional omnibus appropriations package passed on
September 30, 1996.  The legislation empowers the FDIC to lower the insurance
premium from $.23 per $100 of deposits to $.065 per $100 of deposits beginning
January 1997.  The $2.4 million assessment ($1.6 million after tax) was
recorded as part of the Company's non-interest expense this quarter. 
Excluding the special assessment, the Company's net income would have been
approximately $2.4 million, or $.25 per share compared with net income of $1.2
million in the second quarter of fiscal 1996.  Management estimates that this
special assessment expense will be offset during the next three to four years
through anticipated lower depository insurance costs.

At the Company's annual stockholders meeting held on July 26, 1996  the
shareholders approved adoption of the Management Recognition and Development
Plan (MRDP) and Stock Option Plan (SOP).  Under the MRDP the Company is
authorized to grant up to 436,425 shares of restricted stock to directors,
officers and employees of the Bank.  The initial grant of 404,282 shares with
a total cost of $6.3 million vests over a  five year period starting from the
July 26, 1996 MRDP approval date.  The consolidated statements of income for
the quarter and six months ended September 30, 1996 reflect an accrual of
$321,000 of compensation expense for the MRDP including $20,000 of expense for
dividends on the allocated, restricted stock.  The Company has reserved an
aggregate of 1,091,063 shares for issuance pursuant to the exercise of stock
options which may be granted under the SOP to employees and directors.  The
exercise price of the option was set at 100%  of the fair market value of the
stock price at date of grant.  The initial grant of approximately  854,000
options  vests over a five year period following the date of grant and any
unexercised options will expire after ten years.

The Company  completed the acquisition of Inland Empire Bank (IEB) of
Hermiston Oregon effective August 1, 1996.  The Company paid the former
shareholders of IEB $60.8951 per share, in cash, for a total acquisition price
of $32.8 million.  IEB has five full service branches, a remote drive-up
facility and two loan production offices located in northeast Oregon.  The
acquisition of IEB was treated as a purchase for accounting purposes. 
Accordingly, under generally accepted accounting principles, the assets and
liabilities of IEB have been recorded on the books of the Company at their
respective fair market values at the effective date the acquisition was
consummated. Goodwill, the excess of the purchase price (cost) over the net
fair value of the assets and liabilities, was recorded at $12.4 million. 
Amortization of goodwill over a 14 year period will result in a charge to
earnings of approximately $884,000 per year.  Because of the amount of assets
of IEB acquired by the Company, the financial results for September 30, 1996,
are not generally comparable to those of a year ago. The combined organization
at September 30, 1996, is significantly larger than it was a year ago.

The accompanying financial statements include the operations of the two
institutions from August 1, 1996, to September 30, 1996.  The following pro
forma information present the results of operations for the quarter and six
months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, as though the acquisition had
occurred on April 1, 1995. The pro forma results do not necessarily indicate
the actual results that would have been obtained, nor are they necessarily
indicative of the future operations of the combined companies.  The unaudited

ITEM 2  -  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

General

First Savings Bank of Washington Bancorp, Inc. (the Company),a Delaware
corporation, is primarily engaged in the business of planning, directing and
coordinating the business activities of its wholly owned subsidiaries, First
Savings Bank of Washington (FSBW) and Inland Empire Bank (IEB) (together, the
Banks).  FSBW is a Washington-chartered savings bank the deposits of which are
insured by the FDIC under the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF).  FSBW
conducts business from its main office in  Walla Walla , Washington and its 16
branch offices and three loan production offices located in southeast,
central, north central and western Washington.  IEB is an Oregon-chartered
commercial bank whose deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (FDIC) under the Bank Insurance Fund (BIF).  IEB conducts
business from its main office in Hermistion, Oregon and its five branch
offices and two loan production offices located in northeast Oregon.

The operating results of the Company depend primarily on its net interest
income, which is the difference between interest income on interest-earning
assets, consisting of  loans and investment securities, and interest expense
on interest-bearing liabilities, composed primarily of savings deposits and
Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances.  Net interest income is primarily a
function of the Company's interest rate spread, which is the difference
between the yield earned on interest-earning assets and the rate paid on
interest-bearing liabilities, as well as a function of the average balance of
interest earning assets as compared to the average balance of interest-bearing
liabilities.  As more fully explained below, the Company's net interest income
significantly increased for both the most recent quarter and six months ended
September 30, 1996 when compared to the same the periods for the prior year. 
This increase in net interest income was largely due to the substantial
growth in average asset and liability balances.  The Company's net income also
is affected by provisions for loan losses and the level of its other income,
including deposit service charges, loan origination and servicing fees, and
gains and losses on the sale of loans and securities, as well as its
non-interest operating expenses and income tax provisions.  As further
explained below, net income for the six months also increased reflecting the
rise in net interest income and a slight increase in other operating income
which was somewhat offset by increases in operating expenses and provision for
income taxes.  Operating results and in particular non-interest operating
expenses were significantly affected by the special, one-time, assessment to
recapitalize SAIF.

Management's discussion and analysis of results of operations is intended to
assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of
the Company.  The information contained in this section should be read in
conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying
Selected Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 

Significant Events

The Company instituted a stock repurchase program during the quarter ended
June 30, 1996, which authorized the repurchase of approximately 546,000 shares
of its outstanding common stock, and as of June 30, 1996, the Company
repurchased 436,425 shares at an average price of $14.74 per share. During the
quarter ended September 30, 1996 the Company reissued 404,282 treasury shares
purchased during the quarter ended June 30, 1996 to the MRDP (see Note 4 to
financial statements).

The Company completed the acquisition of Inland Empire Bank (IEB) of
Hermiston, Oregon effective August 1, 1996.  (see Note 4 to financial
statements). 

During the quarter ended September 30, 1996 the US Congress passed legislation
requiring that all financial institutions with deposits insured by the Savings
Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) pay a special assessment to recapitalize the
SAIF.  This assessment resulted in the Company's SAIF insured subsidiary,
First Savings Bank of Washington (FSBW) recording a $2.4 million non-interest
expense.  (see Note 4 to financial statements).

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30 and March 31, 1996

Total assets increased $203.8 million, or 27.4%, from $743.2 million at March
31, 1996 to $947.0 million at September 30, 1996.  The majority of the growth,
$157.6 million, was from the August, 1996 acquisition of IEB.  The balance of
the increase generally reflected growth in net loans receivable and was funded
primarily with advances from the FHLB.  This growth represented a continuation
of  management's plans to leverage the Company's strong capital position.  

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Loans receivable grew $156.6 million, or 37.7%, from $415.3 million at March
31,1996 to $571.9 million at September 30, 1996.  The acquisition of IEB
contributed $90.5 million of the increase and the remaining increase in loans
of $66.1 million was funded primarily by a net increase of $55.0 million, or
27.6%, in FHLB advances from $179.4 million at March 31, 1996 to $219.1
million on September 30, 1996.

Securities available for sale and held to maturity increased $7.2 million to
$300.9 million at September 30, 1996 from $293.7 million at March 31,1996. 
During the September 1996 quarter the Company used $32.9 million of cash and
proceeds from maturing short term securities to fund the acquisition of the
outstanding stock of IEB which held $46.1 million of securities on the date of
acquisition.  Borrowings under reverse repurchase agreements increased $16.1
million from $9.9 million at March 31, 1996 to $26.0 million at September 30,
1996.  Federal Home Loan Bank Stock increased $2.5 million as the Company was
required to purchase more stock as a result of its increased use of FHLB
advances.

Deposits grew $151.5 million or 40.5%, from $374.1 million at March 31, 1996
to $525.6 million at September 30, 1996.  The acquisition of IEB contributed
$134.6 million of the increase.   

Comparison of Operating Results for the Quarter and Six months Ended September
30, 1996 and 1995

General.   Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 was $803,000,
after recording a $2.4 million  ($1.6 million after tax) non-interest expense
representing the Company's share of an industry-wide special assessment to
recapitalize SAIF.  The assessment was calculated at .657% of insured deposits
as of March 31, 1995. Net income for the first six months of fiscal
1996 was $3.2 million, or $.33 per share, compared to net income of $2.2
million recorded in the like period of fiscal 1996.  The special assessment,
charged to every depository institution in the country with deposits insured
by SAIF, was contained in the US Congressional omnibus appropriations package
passed on September 30, 1996.  The legislation empowers the FDIC to lower the
insurance premium from $.23 per $100 of deposits to $.065 per $100 of deposits
beginning January 1997. The Company's net income without the special
assessment, would have been approximately $4.8 million for the six months and
$2.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 1996.  In addition, the second
quarter ended September 30, 1996 included two months of combined operations of
First Savings Bank of Washington and Inland Empire Bank.  The Company acquired
Inland Empire Bank (IEB) on August 1, 1996. The acquisition significantly
affected the Company's operating results for both the quarter and the six
months ended September 30, 1996.

Excluding the special assessment, the Company's increased operating results
reflect the significant growth of assets, liabilities and stockholders'
equity.  Compared to year ago levels, total assets increased 87% to $947
million at September 30, 1996, total loans rose 84% to $572 million and total
deposits climbed 38% to $526 million.  Assets were 27% higher than at March
31, 1996, total loans rose 38%, and deposits grew 41% in the first two
quarters of fiscal 1997.  The substantial increase in these balances resulted
from the deployment and leveraging of the $98.6 million in net proceeds raised
in the Company's conversion from mutual to stock ownership on October 31, 1995
and the recent acquisition of IEB.

The Company's return on average equity  decreased from 8.60% for the quarter
ended September 30, 1995, to 2.20% for the quarter ended September 30, 1996,
which was expected due to the large increase in equity from the October 31,
1995 stock offering combined with the reduction in earnings due to the special
one time SAIF assessment.  Return on equity for the six months ended September
30, 1996 decreased to 4.30% as compared to 8.51% for the same period in
September 1995.

Interest Income.  Interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 1996,
was $16.6 million compared to $9.3 million for the quarter ended September 30,
1995, an increase of $7.3 million, or 78.8%.  The increase in interest income
was a result of a $370.2 million or 76.8% growth in average balances of
interest earning assets combined with a 7 basis point increase in the average
yield on those assets from 7.68% in the quarter ended  September 30, 1995 to
7.75%  in 1996.  Average loans receivable increased by $173.8 million, or
56.5%, in 1996.  Interest income on loans increased by $4.8 million or 74.1%,
reflecting the impact of  the  increase in average loan balances and an
increase in the yield on those balances.   Loans yielded 8.46% for the quarter
ended September 30, 1996, compared to 8.35% for the quarter ended September
30, 1995.  Interest income on loans for the six months ended September 30,
1996 increased $7.5 million or 58.44% from the comparable period in September
1995.  The increase reflects a $173.8 million increase in the average balance
of loans receivable.  The August 1996 acquisition of $90.5 million of loans
held by IEB contributed a significant portion of the increase.

The average balance of mortgage-backed securities, investment securities,
daily interest-bearing deposits and FHLB stock increased by $149.3 million in
the quarter ended September 30, 1996, and interest and dividend income from
those investments rose by $2.5 million for the September 1996 quarter compared
to 1995.  The average yield on mortgage-backed securities rose  from 6.55% in
September 1995 to 6.87% in 1996.  The average yield on other investment
securities, on the other hand, declined from 6.41% in September 1995 to 6.18%
in 1996, which reflects the temporary investment of a portion of the
conversion proceeds in lower yielding short term investments as well as
generally lower prevailing market rates.  Earnings on FHLB stock increased by
$156,000 reflecting an increase of $7.3 million in the average balance of FHLB
stock for the quarter ended September 1996 and a 84 basis point increase in
the dividend yield on that stock.  Interest income on interest bearing
securities and deposits for the six months ended September 30, 1996 increased
$4.5 million or 79.23% from the comparable period in September 1995.  The
increase reflects a $136.8 million growth in the average balance of
securities. This is due to the August 1996 acquisition of $46.1 million of
securities held by IEB.  The remaining growth is in line with managements'
plans to leverage the Company's strong capital position. 

Interest Expense.  Interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 1996,
was $9.0 million compared to $5.7 million for the comparable period in 1995,
an increase of $3.3 million, or 57.7%.  The increase in interest expense was
due to the $285.0 million growth in average interest-bearing liabilities. The
increase in average interest-bearing liabilities in the quarter ended
September 1996 was largely due to a $154.0 million increase in the average
balance of FHLB advances combined with a $107.2 million growth in average
deposits coming primarily from the acquisition of IEB.  Average FHLB advances
totaled $215.8 million during the quarter ended September 30, 1996, as
compared to $61.8 million during the quarter ended September 30, 1995,
resulting in a $2.2 million increase in related interest expense.  The average
rate paid on those advances decreased from 6.07% for the quarter ended
September 1995 to 5.82% for the comparable period in 1996.  Average deposit
balances increased from $366.1 million for the quarter ended September 1995,
to $473.3 million for the comparable period in 1996 while at the same time,
the average rate paid on deposit balances decreased 51 basis points.  The
sharp decline in the rate paid on deposits primarily reflects the acquisition
of IEB's $32.1 million of non-interest bearing deposits.  Deposit interest
expense increased a modest $755,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996. 
Other borrowings consists of  retail repurchase agreements with customers, and
reverse repurchase agreements with investment banking firms secured by certain
investment securities.  The average balance for other borrowings, increased
$23.8 million from  $7.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1995,  to
$30.8 million for the same period in 1996, and the related interest expense
increased $301,000, from $108,000 to $409,000 for the respective periods.  The
bulk of this growth in other borrowings, reflects an increase in reverse
repurchase agreements with investment banking firms.  A comparison of total
interest expense for the six months ended September 30, 1996 shows an increase
of $5.3 million or 46.98% from the comparable period in September 1995.  The
majority of this increase is due to the $158.6 million growth in the average
balances of FHLB and other borrowings which are being used to leverage the
Company's growth in interest earning assets.

Provision for Loan Losses.  During the quarter ended September 30, 1996, the
provision for loan losses was $407,000, compared to $75,000 for the quarter
ended September 30, 1995, an increase of $332,000.  The increase in the
provision for estimated loan losses is primarily attributable to the overall
increase in net loans receivable excluding loans acquired in the acquisition
of IEB.  Net loans increased $37.7  million, for the quarter ended September
30, 1996 versus $25.4 million for the comparable period in 1995.  The
allowance for loan losses, net of charge-offs (recoveries) increased by $2.2
million, including a $1.4 million allowance for loan losses associated with
the August 1st acquisition of IEB, to $6.3 million at September 30, 1996
compared to $4.1 million at March 31, 1996.  A comparison of the provision for
loan losses for the six months ended September 30, 1996 shows an increase of
$808,000 to $920,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1996 from $112,000
for the comparable period in 1995.  This increase is primarily due to the
$66.2 million growth in loans receivable for the 1996 six month period
(excluding the acquisition of IEB's $90.5 million loan portfolio) as compared
to the $11.6 million growth in loans receivable for the same period in 1995. 
The allowance for losses on loans is maintained at a level sufficient to
provide for estimated losses based on evaluating known and inherent risks in
the loan portfolio and upon management's continuing analysis of the factors
underlying the quality of the loan portfolio.  These factors include changes
in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, actual loan loss
experience, current and anticipated economic conditions, detailed analysis of
individual loans for which full collectibility may not be assured, and
determination of the existence and realizable value of the collateral and
guarantees securing the loans.  Additions to these allowances are charged to
earnings.  Provisions for losses that are related to specific assets are
usually applied as a reduction of the carrying value of the assets and charged
immediately against the income of the period.  The reserve is based upon
factors and trends identified by management at the time financial statements
are prepared.  In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part
of their examination process, periodically review the Banks' allowance for
loan losses.  Such agencies may require the Banks' to provide additions to the
allowance based upon judgements different from management.  Although
management uses the best information available, future adjustments to the
allowance may be necessary due to economic, operating, regulatory and other
conditions beyond the Banks' control.

Other Operating Income.  Other operating income increased from $472,000 for
the quarter ended September 30, 1995 to $594,000 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1996.  The increase was primarily due to a $266,000 increase in
other fees and service charges due largely from IEB operations earning higher
fees as a commercial bank.  The increase in fee income was offset by $212,000
of net losses on securities sold in the quarter ended September 30, 1996. 
Other operating income for the six months ended September 30, 1996 increased a
moderate $35,000 from the comparable period in 1995.  The $333,000 increase in
fee income during the six month period ended September, 1996 was due largely
from IEB operations and was offset by $282,000 decrease in net gains on the
sale of loans and securities.

Other Operating Expenses.  Other operating expenses increased $4.5 million
from $2.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1995, to $6.9 million
for the quarter ended September 30, 1996. The increase in non-interest
operating expense for the quarter ended September 1996, was primarily due to
the $2.4 million SAIF assessment and $1.1 million of IEB operating expenses
for two months.  The increase also reflects growth of the Company including
increased personnel costs and increases in legal accounting and insurance
costs relating to operating as a public company.  These increases were
somewhat offset by a $62,000 increase in capitalized loan origination costs
reflecting a $19.0 million increase in loan origination volume compared to the
quarter ended September 30, 1995.  Other operating expenses for the six months
ended September 30, 1996 increased $4.7 million from the comparable period in
1995.  The majority of the increase was related to the SAIF assessment,
acquisition of IEB and Company growth as discussed above.  This increase was
offset by a $225,000 increase in capitalized loan origination costs reflecting
a $48.3 million increase in loan origination volume compared to the same
period in 1995.

Income Taxes.  Income tax expense was $164,000 for the quarter ended September
30, 1996, compared to $442,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1995.  The
decreased provision for income taxes reflects the lower level of  income
combined with an increase in the percentage relationship of tax exempt income
to total income in the September 1996 quarter.  The Company's effective tax
rates for the quarters ended  September 30, 1996 and 1995 was 16.96% and
27.71%, respectively.  Income tax expense for the six months ended September
30, 1996 increased $237,000 from the comparable period in 1995.  The Company's
effective tax rate decreased to 24.69% for the six months ended September 30,
1996 from 26.69% for the comparable period in 1995.  The expected increase in
income taxes due to the $1.2 million increase in before tax income was reduced
due to the greater percentage of tax exempt income to total income during the
1996 six month period as compared to 1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, FHLB advances, proceeds
from loan principal and interest payments and sales of loans, the maturity of
and interest income on mortgage-backed and investment securities.  While
maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and mortgage-backed securities
are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are
greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and
competition.

The primary investing activity of the Company is the origination and purchase
of mortgage, consumer, and commercial loans through its subsidiary Banks, IEB
and FSBW.  During the six months ended September 30, 1996, the subsidiary
Banks closed or purchased loans in the amounts of $173.2 million. This
activity was funded primarily by principal repayments on loans and securities,
sales of loans, increases in FHLB advances, and deposit growth.  For the six
months ended September 30, 1996, principal repayments on loans totaled $88.9
million and the Banks proceeds from the sale of mortgage loans totaled
$17.4 million.  FHLB advances increased $39.7 million for the same period and
net deposit growth was $16.9 million excluding $134.6 million of deposits
acquired with IEB.

The Banks must maintain an adequate level of liquidity to ensure the
availability of sufficient funds to support loan growth and deposit
withdrawals, to satisfy financial commitments and to take advantage of
investment opportunities.  At September 30, 1996, the Banks had undisbursed
loans in process totaling $57.2 million.  The Banks generally maintain
sufficient cash and readily marketable securities to meet short term liquidity
needs.  In addition, FSBW maintains a credit facility with the FHLB of
Seattle, which provides for advances which in aggregate may equal up to 40% of
FSBW's total assets, which as of September 30, 1996, could give a total credit
line of  $303.2  million.  Advances under this credit facility totaled $219.1
million, or 28.91% of FSBW's assets at September 30, 1996.

<PAGE>

At September 30, 1996, savings certificates amounted to $315.2 million, or
60.0%, of the Banks' total deposits, including $206.7 million which were
scheduled to mature within one year.  Historically, the Banks have been able
to retain a significant amount of their deposits as they mature.  Management
believes it has adequate ability to fund all loan commitments by using
deposits,  FHLB of Seattle advances and the sale of mortgage loans or
securities, and that it can adjust the offering rates of savings certificates
to retain deposits in changing interest rate environments.

Capital Requirements

Federally-insured state-chartered banks are required to maintain minimum
levels of regulatory capital.  Under current FDIC regulations, insured
state-chartered banks generally must maintain (I) a ratio of Tier 1 leverage
capital to total assets of at least 3.0% (4.0% to 5.0% for all but the most
highly rated banks), (ii) a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets of
at least 4.0% and (iii) a ratio of total capital to risk weighted assets of at
least 8.0%.  At September 30, 1996, the Company's banking subsidiaries
exceeded all current regulatory capital requirements to be classified as well
capitalized institutions, the highest regulatory standard.  In order to be
categorized as a well capitalized institution, the FDIC requires banks it
regulates to maintain a leverage ratio, defined as Tier 1 capital divided by
total regulatory assets, of at least 5.00%; total capital of at least 10.00%
of risk-weighted assets; and Tier 1 (or core) capital of at least 6.00% of
risk-weighted assets.

The Company, as a bank holding company is regulated by the Federal Reserve
Board (FRB).  The FRB has established capital requirements that generally
parallel the capital requirements of the FDIC for the Banks that are applied
to bank holding companies with  $150 million or more in total consolidated
assets.  The Company's total regulatory capital must equal 8% of risk-weighted
assets and one half of the 8% (4%) must consist of Tier 1 (core) capital.

The following table reflects the Company's applicable regulatory requirements
and the actual level of regulatory capital at September 30, 1996.
