Mr. McCann's and the corporate reporting entities' aggregate holdings in the

ownership of the Issuer's outstanding common stock has increased due to the 
Issuer's purchases of its own shares.

merger transaction wherein and whereby the Issuer acquired all of the issued 
and outstanding common stock of Security Bancorp on or about February 28, 
1997. Billings and Great Falls each acquired their interests in the Issuer

respective entity in January, 1994.
