                       JSB FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Basis of Presentation
- -------------------------
The  financial   information   for  JSB  Financial,   Inc.  (the  "Company")  as
consolidated  with its wholly  owned  subsidiary  Jamaica  Savings Bank FSB (the
"Bank") is prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting  principles
for interim financial  statements and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
10 of Regulation  S-X. Such  principles are applied on a basis  consistent  with
those reflected in the 1998 Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.   The  financial   information   included  herein,  other  than  the
consolidated  statement of financial condition as of December 31, 1998, has been
prepared  by  management  without  an  audit  by  independent  certified  public
accountants who do not express an opinion thereon. The consolidated statement of
financial condition as of December 31, 1998, has been derived from, but does not
include all the  disclosures  contained in, the audited  consolidated  financial
statements  for the year ended  December 31,  1998.  The  information  furnished
includes  all  adjustments  and  accruals  consisting  only of normal  recurring
accrual adjustments which are in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of results for the interim periods.  The foregoing  interim results
are not  necessarily  indicative of the results of operations  for the full year
ending December 31, 1999.

These consolidated  financial  statements should be read in conjunction with the
audited  consolidated  financial  statements and notes thereto,  included in the
Annual  Report  to  Stockholders  for JSB  Financial,  Inc.  for the year  ended
December 31, 1998.

2.  Impact of New Accounting Standard Not Yet Adopted
- -----------------------------------------------------
In June of 1998,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  ("FASB")  issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("Statement 133"). Statement 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, (collectively referred to as
derivatives) and for hedging  activities.  Statement 133 requires that an entity
recognize all  derivatives  as either assets or  liabilities in the statement of
financial  position and measure those  instruments at fair value. The accounting
for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the
derivative  and the  resulting  designation.  If certain  conditions  are met, a
derivative  may be  specifically  designated  as (a) a hedge of the  exposure to
changes in the fair value of a recognized  asset or liability or an unrecognized
firm  commitment,  (b) a hedge  of the  exposure  to  variable  cash  flows of a
forecasted transaction, or (c) a hedge of the foreign currency exposure of a net
investment  in  a  foreign  operation,  an  unrecognized  firm  commitment,   an
available-for-sale  security,  or  a   foreign-currency-denominated   forecasted
transaction.

Statement  133 is effective  for all fiscal  quarters of fiscal years  beginning
after June 15, 1999.  Initial  application of this Statement should be as of the
beginning of an entity's fiscal quarter. When implemented, hedging relationships
must be designated  anew and documented  pursuant to the provisions of Statement
133.  Earlier  application  of  all  of  the  provisions  of  Statement  133  is
encouraged,  but it is permitted  only as of the beginning of any fiscal quarter
that begins after the issuance of this  Statement.  Statement  133 should not be
applied retroactively to financial statements of prior periods. The Company does
not expect  the  adoption  of  Statement  133 to have a  material  affect on its
financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
         ---------------------------------------------------------------

General/Financial Condition
- ---------------------------
JSB Financial,  Inc. is a  Delaware-chartered  savings and loan holding company,
which owns 100% of the outstanding common stock of Jamaica Savings Bank FSB. The
Company's  assets,  including  the assets of the Bank,  totaled $1.61 billion at
March 31, 1999.  In addition to the  Company's  investment in the Bank, at March
31, 1999,  the Company had $16.0 million in money market  investments  and $25.0
million in short-term federal agency securities.

Asset Quality
- -------------
The Bank's  non-performing  assets may  include:  (1) loans which are 90 days or
more in arrears;  (2) loans which have been placed on  non-accrual  status;  (3)
ORE;  and (4) any other  investments  on which  the  collection  of  contractual
principal  and  interest  is  questionable.   At  March  31,  1999,  the  Bank's
non-performing assets, which totaled $676,000, included: non-performing loans of
$456,000 and ORE of $220,000. The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets
was .04% at both March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998,  respectively.  The ratio
of  non-performing  loans to total loans at both March 31, 1999 and December 31,
1998 was .04%,  well below industry  averages.  (See  Non-performing/Non-accrual
Table, herein.)

Year 2000 Issues
- ----------------
The following discussion and tables contain certain forward-looking  information
with respect to management's expectations for implementation and compliance with
year 2000 ("Y2K") issues and requirements. Management has analyzed the Company's
internal and outsourced  computer hardware,  operating systems and applications,
both information technology systems and non-information technology systems, such
as telephone, air conditioning,  electrical,  etc. The actual readiness of these
systems may differ  materially  from what is presented  below.  Factors that may
cause  differences  between  anticipated  Y2K readiness and actual Y2K readiness
include failure of outside vendors to provide upgrades on a timely basis, and/or
failure of the Bank's hardware,  operating  systems and applications to meet Y2K
readiness  requirements as planned.  In addition,  the actions of depositors and
borrowers in anticipation of Y2K complications may adversely impact the Company,
regardless of the Company's actual state of Y2K readiness.

The Company  completed its assessment of all of its critical computer systems by
September 30, 1997,  which  included  both  information  technology  systems and
non-information  technology  systems.  In January 1999, for reasons unrelated to
Y2K, the Bank  substantially  replaced its mainframe system with a Windows NT(R)
Client/Server  system.  This new  system  had Y2K  capabilities  built  into its
design. All of the Bank's system upgrades and/or  programming  changes have been
made within the normal course of business, therefore, no material costs specific
to  attaining  Y2K  capability  have  been  incurred.  In  accordance  with  Y2K
disclosure  requirements,  the  Company  has  analyzed  the cost  impact  of Y2K
compliance issues and does not expect related future costs to be material to the
Company's future results of operations or financial condition.

A member of the  Bank's  senior  management  has  inventoried  all of the Bank's
hardware and software  programs and has contacted all outside vendors  inquiring
as to the status of Y2K  compliance.  Management  is not aware of any vendor who
does not expect to be Y2K compliant  and will  continue to require  updates from
all  vendors  who are not yet Y2K  compliant.  The Bank  has  many  non-critical
applications,  which will be tested for Y2K compliance during 1999, encompassing
the  majority  of the  dates  outlined  by the  Federal  Financial  Institutions
Examination Council.


  11

The Company believes the required upgrades and testing will ensure completion of
the Y2K  project  by  September  1999.  However,  given  the broad  spectrum  of
potential  Y2K  problems,  including  the  ultimate  state of  readiness  of the
Company's local utilities and other third parties,  including  governmental  and
quasi-governmental  agencies  on which  the  Company  relies,  a vast  amount of
uncertainty  remains  with respect to the actual  affect of Y2K.  Like all other
financial institutions, a failure to correct a material Y2K problem could result
in an interruption  in, or a failure of, certain normal  business  activities or
operations of the Company.  Such failures could  materially and adversely affect
the Company's results of operations and financial  condition.  In addition,  the
long term effect of poorly  managing Y2K problems that may arise,  or failure of
critical  computer  systems  to be Y2K  compliant  could  result in a decline in
business,  depositors and  confidence in the Company.  The Company's Y2K project
was  designed and is expected to  significantly  reduce the  Company's  level of
uncertainty  about  internal and external Y2K  implications.  Should the Company
face Y2K liability,  the Company's  Directors and Officers  Errors and Omissions
Insurance Policy may provide some indemnification.


The following  table  presents the Company's Y2K  renovation  and testing status
indicating  the Company's  state of readiness  regarding  its critical  computer
systems, as they pertain to the Company as of May 11, 1999.

(1)    During January 1999, the Company replaced its mainframe with a relational
       data base system,  which now  supports  all of the critical  applications
       previously   supported  by  the  mainframe   system.   Only  non-critical
       applications remain supported by the mainframe system.

The following table presents the Company's Y2K  contingency  plan for the Bank's

compliance deadlines, or ultimately fail to be Y2K compliant in the future.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Company's funds are primarily  obtained through  dividends paid by the Bank.
The  Bank's  primary  source of funds is  deposits.  Liquidity  is  provided  by
proceeds from maturities of and interest payments on debt securities,  principal
and interest payments on mortgage loans, CMOs and other loans. Overall liquidity
is affected by the Company's operating,  financing and investing activities,  as
well as the interest rate environment, economic conditions and competition.

The Company's  overall  asset/liability  structure  and level of  non-performing
assets  affects  interest  rate spreads and margins,  which are  considered  key
measures  of the  Company's  financial  performance.  As  deposits  continue  to
decrease and migrate into higher cost term accounts, and if additional long-term
advances  from the  FHLB-NY  are taken,  interest  rate  spreads and margins are
likely to decline.  In determining  whether  additional  advances will be taken,
management  will assess  deposit levels and trends,  loan demand,  the Company's
overall liquidity and other market conditions in the future.

During the three months ended March 31, 1999, the $125.0 million of purchases of
U.S.  Government and federal agency securities  represented the most significant
use of funds in investing  activities.  Mortgage originations for the portfolio,
substantially all of which were at fixed rates, for the three months ended March
31,  1999 were $40.8  million,  compared to $50.0  million for the three  months
ended March 31, 1998.  CMO  purchases  for the first  quarter of 1999 were $40.2
million,  compared to $20.0  million for the first  quarter of 1998.  During the
first  quarter  of  1999,  maturities  of U.S.  Government  and  federal  agency
securities  generated  $110.0  million,  the most  significant  cash inflow from
investment activities, followed by principal payments on mortgage loans and CMOs
of $31.2  million and $17.1  million,  respectively.  The $15.5  million cost of
repurchasing the Company's common stock  represented the most significant use of
funds in financing  activities  for the first  quarter of 1999.  The increase in
cash used for dividend  payments  reflected  the increase in dividends  paid per
share to $.45 for the first three months of 1999, compared to $.40 per share for
the first three months of 1998.

Management  monitors deposit levels and interest rates in conjunction with asset
structure and has evaluated and implemented  various strategies to meet targeted
objectives  in various  interest  rate  scenarios.  Interest  rate  spread,  net
interest  margin,  liquidity,  and  related  asset  quality  are some of the key
measures of financial performance that management  considers.  The Bank's assets
are  structured  such that the gradual  decline in deposits  has not  materially
affected the Company.  The Bank's  liquidity ratios continue to exceed all short
and long term minimum  regulatory  requirements.  Management  remains focused on
providing  quality  customer service as its primary strategy for maintaining its
relationships with its depositors.

The Bank  attempts  to  influence  deposit  levels and  composition  through its
interest rate  structure.  Management  believes that the relatively low level of
interest rates and the strong  performance and growth of the capital markets are
the primary  contributors  for the  continued  decline in deposits over the past
several  years.  Management  decided to allow  deposits to decline,  rather than
offer rates that would  result in lowering net income or  necessitate  modifying
the Bank's existing  investment  structure and credit quality  standards.  Rates
offered on the Bank's deposit  accounts are competitive with those rates offered
by other  financial  institutions in its market area.  Historically  the highest
percentage of the Bank's deposits have been in passbook accounts;  however,  the
trend of deposit  shifts has  continued to be out of passbook  accounts and into
certificate  of deposit  accounts  ("CDs").  At March 31,  1999,  deposits  were
comprised as follows:  passbook accounts 46.0%, CDs 39.1%, money market accounts
6.6%, negotiable order of withdrawal ("NOW") accounts 3.2%, non-interest bearing
checking  accounts  3.2% and lease  security  accounts  1.9%.  While the Company
cannot predict the future direction of deposits,  management expects the current
trend to continue  provided  that,  among other  factors,  the low interest rate
environment continues.

The net  decrease  in deposits  of $4.7  million to $1.119  billion at March 31,
1999,  from $1.124  billion at December 31, 1998,  reflected  decreases of $10.6
million in  non-interest  bearing  checking  accounts,  $8.2 million in passbook
accounts  and $1.6  million in NOW  accounts,  partially  offset by increases in
money market accounts,  CDs and lease security  accounts of $11.1 million,  $4.3
million and $258,000, respectively.

The Company  repurchased  277,300  shares of its common  stock  during the three
months ended March 31, 1999,  pursuant to its eleventh stock repurchase  program
(the "Eleventh  Program"),  which began on October 16, 1998.  Under the Eleventh
Program,  412,400  shares of the 900,000  shares  targeted for  repurchase  were
acquired at an aggregate  cost of $22.6  million,  or an average price of $54.76
per share through March 31, 1999. The Company reissued 59,183 shares of treasury
stock for common stock options  exercised and reissued  1,656 shares of treasury
stock for Director's compensation during the three months ended March 31, 1999.

On January 5, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of
$.45 per share to  stockholders  of record on  February  3, 1999.  The  dividend
payment, which totaled $4.3 million, was made on February 17, 1999.

Regulations
- -----------
As a  condition  of  deposit  account  insurance,  Office of Thrift  Supervision
("OTS")  regulations  require that the Bank calculate three regulatory net worth
requirements  on  a  quarterly  basis,  and  satisfy  each  requirement  at  the
calculation date and throughout the ensuing quarter. The three requirements are:
tangible  capital ratio of 1.50%,  leverage  ratio (or "core  capital") of 3.00%
(4.00%,  pursuant  to the  OTS  Prompt  Corrective  Action  Regulations),  and a
risk-based assets capital ratio of 8.00%. The Bank's capital ratios at March 31,
1999 were as follows:

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended
  March 31, 1999 and 1998
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1999, was $7.5 million,  or $.80
per basic share ($.78 per diluted share) compared with $7.7 million, or $.78 per
basic share ($.75 per diluted share), for the three months ended March 31, 1998.

Net  interest  income  for the three  months  ended  March 31,  1999,  was $18.3
million,  compared to $17.8  million for the three  months ended March 31, 1998.
The increase in net  interest  income  reflects a $276,000  increase in interest
income and a $230,000 decrease in interest expense.  Comparing the quarter ended
March 31, 1999 to the quarter  ended March 31,  1998,  the  annualized  yield on
interest earning assets decreased to 7.41%, from 7.60%; average interest earning
assets  increased  by $51.4  million;  the  cost of  interest  bearing  deposits
decreased  to 3.25% from 3.55%;  the $50.0  million of funds  borrowed  from the
FHLB-NY  resulted  in a 3.35%  cost of funds for the  current  quarter.  Average
interest  bearing  deposits were $1.072  billion for the quarter ended March 31,
1999,  compared to $1.087  billion for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. For the
quarter  ended March 31, 1999,  the  interest  rate spread  remained  relatively
unchanged at 4.06%,  compared to 4.05% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The
net  interest  margin  decreased to 4.89% for the current  quarter,  compared to
4.92% for the first quarter of 1998.

Income  earned on mortgage  loans  increased by 11.8%,  to $23.0 million for the
three  months  ended March 31,  1999,  compared  to $20.5  million for the first
quarter of 1998,  reflecting  continued  growth in the mortgage loan  portfolio.
This increase was partially offset by a decrease in the mortgage portfolio yield
to 8.00% for the quarter ended March 31, 1999,  from 8.28% for the quarter ended
March 31, 1998, reflecting originations at the lower market rates.

For the three months ended March 31, 1999 income from debt and equity securities
decreased by $1.7 million,  or 46.5%,  to $1.9 million from $3.6 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1998. This decrease was the result of a decrease in
the average  investment in U.S.  Government  and federal  agency  securities and
other  investments of $91.5 million,  or 39.0%, to $143.2  million,  compared to
$234.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998.  The annualized  yield
on the debt and equity  securities  portfolio  decreased  to 5.39% for the three
months  ended  March 31,  1999 from 6.14% for the three  months  ended March 31,
1998. The debt and equity securities  portfolio  activity for the current period
included purchases of $125.0 million and maturities of $110.0 million,  compared
with purchases of $75.0 million and maturities of $110.0 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 1998.

For the quarter  ended March 31, 1999,  income on CMOs  increased  slightly,  by
2.6%, to $1.5 million,  with an annualized  yield of 5.72%,  from income of $1.4
million with an annualized  yield of 6.16% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998.
During the first quarter of 1999, the Bank received  principal payments of $17.1
million on CMOs,  compared  with  principal  payments  of $21.2  million for the
quarter ended March 31, 1998.  CMO purchases  during the quarter ended March 31,
1999 totaled  $40.2  million,  compared to  purchases  of $20.0  million for the
quarter  ended  March 31,  1998.  The Bank did not sell any CMOs  during  either
period.

Income on federal funds sold  decreased by $329,000,  or 27.3%,  to $876,000 for
the quarter  ended March 31, 1999 from $1.2 million for the quarter  ended March
31, 1998.  This decrease  resulted from a decrease in the average  investment in
federal funds of $14.6 million to $75.0 million for the current period, compared
with $89.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The annualized yield on
federal funds sold decreased to 4.67% for the current quarter, compared to 5.38%
for the quarter ended March 31, 1998.

Interest  expense on deposits  decreased  by  $923,000  to $8.7  million for the
quarter  ended March 31, 1999,  compared to $9.6  million for the quarter  ended
March 31, 1998. Average interest bearing deposits decreased by $14.6 million, to
$1.072  billion for the three months  ended March 31,  1999,  compared to $1.087
billion for the three months ended March 31, 1998,  and the average rate paid on
interest  bearing  deposits  decreased  to 3.25% from 3.55% for the  comparative
quarter in 1998.

On December 8, 1998,  the Bank borrowed  $50.0 million from the FHLB-NY,  in the
form of a fixed rate ten year  non-amortizing  advance.  Interest expense on the
FHLB-NY  advance  for the first  quarter  of 1999 was  $693,000,  reflecting  an
interest  rate of 5.62%.  The Bank did not have any  borrowed  funds  during the
first quarter of 1998.

The  provision  for loan losses for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 was $7,000,
compared  to  $14,000  for the first  quarter  of 1998,  comprised  entirely  of
provisions against the other loan portfolio. Based on management's internal loan
review  analysis,  no  additions  to  the  mortgage  allowance  were  considered
necessary during the first quarter of 1999 or the year ending December 31, 1998.
Management  will continue to monitor the  performance of the loan portfolios and
may adjust allowances accordingly.

Total non-interest  income for the three months ended March 31, 1999,  increased
to $2.0  million  from $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998, a
net  increase of  $323,000,  or 19.5%.  Non-interest  income for the 1998 period
included a $1.0 million recovery of prior period expenses, received as part of a
settlement on a $12.8 million  underlying  cooperative  mortgage loan. Loan fees
and service charges increased by $860,000, to $1.4 million for the first quarter
of  1999,  compared  to  $527,000  for the  first  quarter  of  1998,  primarily
reflecting an increase in mortgage loan prepayment  penalties for large mortgage
loan satisfactions.  Real estate operations increased by $498,000, or 6.5 times,
to $575,000 for the three  months ended March 31, 1999,  compared to $77,000 for
the  three  months  ended  March  31,1998,   reflecting  gains  of  $443,000  on
condominium apartments sold, which were carried at zero value.

Non-interest  expense  increased to $7.2  million,  or 6.5%,  during the quarter
ended March 31, 1999,  from $6.8  million for the quarter  ended March 31, 1998.
This increase was primarily  the result of a $302,000  increase in  compensation
and benefit expense,  reflecting salary adjustments and increases in the cost of
benefits.

The provision for income taxes increased by $581,000,  or 11.7%, to $5.5 million
for the three  months  ended  March 31,  1999,  from $4.9  million for the three
months ended March 31, 1998.  This increase  reflected the $396,000  increase in
pre-tax income accompanied by an increase in the Company's effective tax rate to
42.5% for the quarter  ended March 31,  1999,  from 39.2% for the quarter  ended
March 31, 1998.  During 1998,  the Company  realized tax benefits in  connection
with an operating  subsidiary,  which were not realized during the first quarter
of 1999, as the subsidiary was liquidated.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis

The matching of assets and  liabilities  may be analyzed by examining the extent
to which such  assets and  liabilities  are  "interest  rate  sensitive"  and by
monitoring  an  institution's  interest  rate  sensitivity  "gap".  An  asset or
liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if
it will mature or reprice within that time period. The interest rate sensitivity
gap is defined as the difference  between the amount of interest  earning assets
maturing or repricing  within a specific  time period and the amount of interest
bearing  liabilities  maturing or repricing  within that time  period.  A gap is
considered  positive when the amount of interest rate  sensitive  assets exceeds
the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities.  A gap is considered negative
when the amount of interest  rate  sensitive  liabilities  exceeds the amount of
interest rate  sensitive  assets.  During a period of rising  interest  rates, a
negative gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income while a positive
gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income.  During a period
of declining  interest rates, a negative gap would tend to result in an increase
in net interest  income while a positive gap would tend to adversely  affect net
interest income.

The following table sets forth, as of March 31, 1999,  repricing  information on
earning assets and interest  bearing  liabilities.  The data reflects  estimated
principal  amortization  and  prepayments  on mortgage loans based on historical
performance.  Approximate  prepayment  rate  assumptions  for fixed rate  one-to
four-family  mortgage  loans  and MBS  are  based  upon  the  remaining  term to
contractual maturity as follows: (a) 26% if less than six months; (b) 11% if six
months to one year, three to five years and for five to ten years; (c) 8% if one
to three years;  (d) 9% if ten to twenty years;  and (e) 17% if beyond 20 years.
Adjustable-rate  mortgages are assumed to prepay at 15% and second  mortgages at
18%. All other fixed rate first  mortgage loans are assumed to prepay at 3%. All
deposit accounts,  which are subject to immediate  withdrawal/repricing,  except
CDs, are assumed to reprice in the earliest period presented.  Marketable equity
securities  and other  investments  which do not have a fixed maturity date or a
stated yield,  are reflected as repricing in the more than five years  category.
The table does not  necessarily  indicate  the impact of general  interest  rate
movements on the Company's net interest  income because the repricing of certain
categories  of assets and  liabilities,  is beyond the Company's  control.  As a
result,  certain assets and liabilities  indicated as repricing  within a stated
period may in fact  reprice at  different  times and at  different  rate levels.
While  management  regularly  reviews the  Company's  gap  analysis,  the gap is
considered an analytical tool, which has limited value.

The Company's  interest rate sensitivity is also monitored by management through
the use of a model which  internally  generates  estimates of the net  portfolio
value ("NPV") over a range of interest rate change scenarios. NPV is the present
value of expected  cash flows from assets,  liabilities  and  off-balance  sheet
contracts.  The NPV ratio,  under any interest rate scenario,  is defined as the
NPV in that scenario divided by the market value of assets in the same scenario.
Based upon data  submitted on the Bank's  quarterly  Thrift  Financial  Reports,
which does not include the assets, liabilities or off-balance sheet contracts of
the  Company,  the OTS  produces  a  similar  analysis  using  its own model and
assumptions.  Due to differences in assumptions  applied in the Bank's  internal
model and the OTS model, including estimated loan prepayment rates, reinvestment
rates and deposit  decay  rates,  the results of the OTS model may vary from the
Bank's  internal  model.  For  purposes of the NPV table,  the  Company  applied
prepayment  speeds  similar to those used in the Gap table.  Reinvestment  rates
applied  were  rates  offered  for  similar  products  at the  time  the NPV was
calculated.  The discount  rates  applied for CDs and  borrowings  were based on
rates that approximate the rates offered by the Bank for deposits and borrowings
of similar  remaining  maturities.  The following table sets forth the Company's
NPV as of March 31, 1999, as calculated by the Company.

1 Reflects the percentage  change in the portfolio value of the Company's assets
for each rate shock  compared to the  portfolio  value of the  Company's  assets
under the zero rate change scenario.

Note: As in the case with the Gap table,  certain  shortcomings  are inherent in
the  methodology  used in the above  interest rate risk  measurements.  Modeling
changes in NPV  require  certain  assumptions  which may or may not  reflect the
manner in which actual  yields and costs  respond to changes in market  interest
rates. In this regard,  the NPV model presented  assumes that the composition of
the  Company's  interest  sensitive  assets  and  liabilities  existing  at  the
beginning of a period  remains  constant over the period being measured and also
assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across
the yield curve  regardless of the duration to maturity or repricing of specific
assets and  liabilities.  Accordingly,  although  the NPV  measurements  and net
interest income models provide an indication of the Company's interest rate risk
exposure at a particular  point in time, such  measurements  are not intended to
and do not  provide a  precise  forecast  of the  effect  of  changes  in market
interest  rates on the Company's  net interest  income,  as actual  results will
differ.
