Dear Shareholder:
On or about January 9, 2001, First Federal Bancorp, Inc. ("Bancorp"),
mailed to all of our shareholders of record on December 26, 2000, proxy
materials for our annual meeting of shareholders to be held on February 21,
2001 (the "Annual Meeting"). We have become aware that the table on page 3
of the Proxy Statement setting forth information regarding persons
beneficially owning more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Bancorp
failed to include information about an entity that should have been
included. The table in the Proxy Statement is otherwise correct. The
following is a corrected table:
Amount and Nature of
Beneficial Ownership (2)

As stated in the Proxy Statement, any proxy submitted may be revoked
by a shareholder by executing a later dated proxy that is received by
Bancorp before the proxy is exercised or by giving notice of revocation to
Bancorp in writing or in open meeting before the proxy is exercised.
Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, of itself, revoke a proxy.
We regret this inadvertent omission. If you have any questions
regarding this matter, please telephone me at 740-588-2222.
If you have not yet submitted your proxy, we again urge you to do so.
Your vote is important!
Sincerely,
/s/ J. William Plummer
