(the "Company"), its wholly owned subsidiary Derby Savings Bank (the "Bank") and Derby Financial Services Corp., the Bank's wholly owned subsidiary, and reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The financial statements of Derby Financial Services Corp. are not significant to the Bank's or the consolidated financial statements. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Bank and all material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. BASIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial position and the consolidated statements of operations for the period. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near-term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures and in satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of the allowances for loan losses and foreclosed assets, management utilizes the services of professional appraisers for significant properties. A substantial portion of the Bank's loans are collateralized by real estate in depressed markets in Connecticut. In addition, all of the foreclosed assets are located in those same depressed markets. Accordingly, the ultimate collectibility of a substantial portion of the Bank's loan portfolio and the recovery of a substantial portion of the carrying amount of foreclosed assets are particularly susceptible to changes in market conditions in Connecticut. While management uses available information to recognize possible loan losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions, particularly in the Bank's service area, Connecticut. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowances for loan and foreclosed asset losses. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowances based on their judgements of information available to them at the time of their examination. CASH EQUIVALENTS. Cash equivalents include demand deposits at other financial institutions and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods. INVESTMENT SECURITIES, effective December 31,1993, at the time of acquisition, are classified into one of three categories: held-to-maturity, available-for- sale or trading. The classification is based upon management's intended holding period and, in the case of the held-to-maturity classification, the ability to hold the securities to maturity. Investments classified as held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost. Investments classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported in a separate component of stockholders' equity. Trading securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Prior to December 31, 1993, investment securities were stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of bond premiums and accretion of bond discounts using the interest method. Marketable equity securities were stated at the lower of aggregate cost or market value. The specific cost method is used to determine gains or losses on the sales of securities. LOANS are stated net of deferred fees. INTEREST ON LOANS is credited to operations as earned based primarily upon the principal amount outstanding. In determining income recognition on mortgage, consumer and commercial loans, it is the general policy that no additional interest revenue shall be credited to operations with respect to loans on which a default of interest has existed for a period in excess of 90 days, at which time previously accrued interest is reversed. On loans secured by real estate, management may continue to accrue interest if the estimated realizable value - 5 - of the underlying collateral for such loans is sufficient to cover both principal and accrued interest. All loan origination fees and direct loan origination costs transacted are being deferred and amortized over the contractual life of the related loans as an adjustment of yield. THE ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES has been established through provisions for loan losses and is a valuation allowance which is reflected as a deduction from loans. The allowance represents amounts which, in management's judgment, will be adequate to absorb possible losses on loans that may become uncollectible, based on such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions that may affect the borrowers' ability to pay, overall portfolio quality, the average of the Bank's loan losses less recoveries for the current and preceding five years, and review of specific problem loans. BANK PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Bank uses primarily accelerated methods of calculating depreciation. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated service lives or the terms of the leases. Bank premises are depreciated over a period of between 30 and 40 years; furniture and equipment are depreciated over a period of between 1 and 20 years. For income tax purposes, the Bank uses the depreciation provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. FORECLOSED ASSETS acquired through foreclosure action or deed in lieu of foreclosure are reflected at acquisition cost (loan balance and accrued interest) plus improvements. The carrying value cannot exceed the estimated net realizable value and any excess is charged off against the allowance for foreclosed assets. Operating costs, net of rental income, if any, are charged to expense in the period incurred. IN-SUBSTANCE FORECLOSED ASSETS. Collateral generally is considered repossessed in substance and accounted for at its fair value when the debtor has little or no equity in the collateral, considering the current net realizable value of the collateral; proceeds for repayment of the loan can be expected to come only from the operation or sale of the collateral; and the debtor has either formally or effectively abandoned control of the collateral to the creditor or retained control of the collateral but, because of the current financial condition of the debtor, or the economic prospects for the debtor and/or the collateral in the foreseeable future, it is doubtful that the debtor will be able to rebuild equity in the collateral or otherwise repay the loan in the foreseeable future. To the extent the loan balance exceeds the net realizable value of the collateral, the excess is charged off against the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent declines, if any, in the net realizable value of the collateral are charged off against the allowance for foreclosed assets. INCOME TAXES. Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109. This Statement requires the use of the liability method in determining the tax effect of temporary differences in the recognition of items of income and expense reported in the consolidated financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes. In prior years the Company used the deferred method in computing such tax effects. In adopting this statement, the Company provided for the effect of the change in 1993. As such, prior period financial statements have not been restated. The Company and its subsidiaries file consolidated income tax returns. The subsidiaries pay to or receive from the Company, as appropriate, an allocated portion of the consolidated income taxes or benefits based upon the effective income tax rate of the consolidated group. CONTINGENCY RESERVE FOR QUALIFYING LOAN LOSSES. Deductions from taxable income in prior years have been claimed as loan loss provisions for qualifying (real estate) loans in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code. A segregation equal to the deductions has been made from unappropriated retained earnings to establish the reserve. If the reserve is used for any purpose other than to absorb losses on loans, an income tax liability could be incurred. Management does not anticipate that this reserve will be made available for any other purposes. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, no deferred taxes have been provided for this temporary difference (Note 9). CLASSIFICATION OF CERTAIN AMOUNTS. For comparative purposes, certain amounts in prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period classifications. - 6 - NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES The Bank adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 115 as of December 31, 1993. This statement requires that investment securities, at the time of acquisition, be classified into one of three categories: held-to- maturity, available-for-sale or trading. Debt securities that are purchased with the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and reported at amortized cost. Debt and equity securities that are purchased and held for the purpose of sale in the near term are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Debt and equity securities not classified as either held-to-maturity or trading securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax (Note 9), reported in a separate component of stockholders' equity. At the time of adoption of this statement, the Bank classified investments in debt and equity securities based upon the Bank's current intent. A summary of the Bank's investment securities is as follows: Available-For-Sale ----------------------------------------------------- March 31, 1994 ----------------------------------------------------- (Amounts in thousands) Gross Gross Amortized unrealized unrealized Market Cost gains losses value --------- ---------- ---------- -------- Mortgage-backed securities $174,740 $ 473 $ 1,339 $173,874 Other bonds and notes 46,550 431 387 46,594 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total bonds 221,290 904 1,726 220,468 Marketable equities 1,408 131 94 1,445 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total investment securities $222,698 $ 1,035 $ 1,820 $221,913 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Held-to-Maturity ----------------------------------------------------- March 31, 1994 ----------------------------------------------------- (Amounts in thousands) Gross Gross Amortized unrealized unrealized Market Cost gains losses value --------- ---------- ---------- -------- U.S. Government and agency bonds $ 3,000 $ 7 $ 1 $ 3,006 Mortgage-backed securities 116,938 245 3,756 113,427 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total bonds 119,938 252 3,757 116,433 Money market preferred stock 10,500 --- --- 10,500 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total investment securities $130,438 $ 252 $ 3,757 $126,933 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- - 7 - Trading Account ----------------------------------------------------- March 31, 1994 ----------------------------------------------------- (Amounts in thousands) Gross Gross Amortized unrealized unrealized Market Cost gains losses value --------- ---------- ---------- -------- Marketable equities $ 314 --- 10 304 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total investment securities $ 314 $ --- $ 10 $ 304 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Available-For-Sale ----------------------------------------------------- December 31, 1993 ----------------------------------------------------- (Amounts in thousands) Gross Gross Amortized unrealized unrealized Market Cost gains losses value --------- ---------- ---------- -------- Mortgage-backed securities $187,746 $ 1,303 $ 454 $188,595 Other bonds and notes 65,095 1,302 45 66,352 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total bonds 252,841 2,605 499 254,947 Marketable equities 1,274 194 69 1,399 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total investment securities $254,115 $ 2,799 $ 568 $256,346 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Held-to-Maturity ----------------------------------------------------- December 31, 1993 ----------------------------------------------------- (Amounts in thousands) Gross Gross Amortized unrealized unrealized Market Cost gains losses value --------- ---------- ---------- -------- U.S. Government and agency bonds $ 2,000 $ 21 $ --- $ 2,021 Mortgage-backed securities 55,253 661 89 55,825 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total bonds 57,253 682 89 57,846 Money market preferred stock 9,000 --- --- 9,000 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total investment securities $ 66,253 $ 682 $ 89 $ 66,846 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Prior to December 31, 1993, the aggregate carrying value of the marketable equity securities portfolio was adjusted to aggregate market, if lower than cost, by a valuation allowance which was adjusted through corresponding charges and credits to Retained earnings. - 8 - The amortized cost and market value of debt securities by contractual maturity is as follows: March 31, 1994 --------------------------------------------- (Amounts in thousands) Available-for-Sale Held-to-Maturity -------------------- -------------------- Amortized Market Amortized Market Cost value Cost value --------- -------- --------- -------- Due in one year or less $ 8,361 $ 8,446 $ --- $ --- Due after one year through five years 37,806 37,743 3,000 3,006 Due after five years through ten years --- --- --- --- Due after ten years 383 405 --- --- -------- -------- -------- -------- 46,550 46,594 3,000 3,006 Mortgage-backed securities 174,740 173,874 116,938 113,427 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total $221,290 $220,468 $119,938 $116,433 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Total Portfolio -------------------------- (Amounts in thousands) Amortized Market Cost value --------- -------- Due in one year or less $ 8,361 $ 8,446 Due after one year through five years 40,806 40,749 Due after five years through ten years --- --- Due after ten years 383 405 -------- -------- 49,550 49,600 Mortgage-backed securities 291,678 287,301 -------- -------- Total $341,228 $336,901 -------- -------- -------- -------- Proceeds from the sales of debt securities during the three months ended March 31, 1994 were $15,631,000.

NOTE 3 - PLEDGED ASSETS The aggregate book value and market value of investment securities pledged as collateral against public funds, treasury tax and loan deposits and repurchase agreements (Note 8) were approximately as follows: March 31, 1994 December 31, 1993 -------------- ----------------- (Amounts in thousands) Book value $3,000 $2,000 ------- ------- ------- ------- Market value $3,006 $2,020 ------- ------- ------- ------- Stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank (the "FHLB") of Boston and mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities with market values, as determined in accordance with FHLB of Boston's collateral pledge agreement, at least equal to the outstanding advances and any unused lines of credit (Note 8) were pledged against outstanding advances from the FHLB of Boston at March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993. - 9 - NOTE 4 - LOANS Loans are summarized between fixed and adjustable rates as follows: March 31, 1994 December 31, 1993 -------------- ----------------- (Amounts in thousands) Mortgage Fixed rate $207,355 $200,406 Adjustable rate 491,529 467,273 -------- -------- 698,884 667,679 -------- -------- Consumer Fixed rate 11,379 12,101 Adjustable rate 80,735 82,795 -------- -------- 92,114 94,896 -------- -------- Commercial Fixed rate 8,888 9,201 Adjustable rate 21,957 21,326 -------- -------- 30,845 30,527 -------- -------- Total loans 821,843 793,102 -------- -------- Less: Allowance for loan losses 6,777 6,979 Deferred loan fees and discount 6,787 6,836 -------- -------- 13,564 13,815 -------- -------- Loans, net $808,279 $779,287 -------- -------- -------- -------- Included in loans outstanding at March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993 were $8,525,000 and $9,502,000, respectively, in loans on non-accrual status. Included in these amounts were $6,164,000 in mortgage loans, $1,241,000 in consumer loans and $1,120,000 in commercial loans at March 31, 1994 and $6,657,000 in mortgage loans, $1,446,000 in consumer loans and $1,399,000 in commercial loans at December 31, 1993. At March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, non-accrual interest on these loans totaled approximately $482,100 and $810,400, respectively. The Bank also monitors and works closely with certain borrowers that may experience financial difficulties. These difficulties may result in a modification of loan terms in order to assist a debtor who has been adversely affected by the state of the local economy. The modification of terms may be in the form of the waiver of principal payments, a reduction in the interest rate or the waiver of interest payments for a specified period of time. At March 31, 1994, the Bank had six loan relationships, all of which were secured, totaling $8.1 million, which were being monitored. Included in this amount are four loans totaling $2.3 million, the terms of which have been modified and four loans totaling $3.6 million, which are non-performing. In connection with the Burritt transaction (Note 14), the Bank purchased two loan pools at discounts of $9.0 million and $1.3 million, which had been added to the Bank's allowance for mortgage and consumer loan losses, respectively, in 1992. During 1993, the Company completed the valuation analysis of the loans acquired in connection with the Burritt transaction. As a result of this analysis, the Company allocated $6.0 million of the Burritt acquired allowance for loan losses as a purchased loan discount. This amount will be accreted to interest revenue over the remaining terms of the acquired loans. At March 31, 1994, the allowance for loan losses, which totaled $6.8 million, included $2.2 million allocated to the loans acquired in the Burritt transaction. - 10 - Activity in the allowances for loan losses for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993 were as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, ---------------------------- 1994 1993 ------ ------- (Amounts in thousands) MORTGAGE LOANS Balance at beginning of period $ 4,605 $11,166 Provision for possible loan losses 350 400 Loan charge-offs (459) (1,552) Recoveries 1 7 ------- ------- Balance at end of period $ 4,497 $10,021 ------- ------- ------- ------- CONSUMER LOANS Balance at beginning of period $ 1,193 $ 1,987 Provision for possible loan losses 200 50 Loan charge-offs (349) (603) Recoveries 3 7 ------- ------- Balance at end of period $ 1,047 $ 1,441 ------- ------- ------- ------- COMMERCIAL LOANS Balance at beginning of period $ 1,181 $ 784 Provision for possible loan losses 50 --- Loan charge-offs --- (72) Recoveries 2 1 ------- ------- Balance at end of period $ 1,233 $ 713 ------- ------- ------- ------- TOTAL ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES Balance at beginning of period $ 6,979 $13,937 Provision for possible loan losses 600 450 Loan charge-offs (808) (2,227) Recoveries 6 15 ------- ------- Balance at end of period $ 6,777 $12,175 ------- ------- ------- ------- The Bank has sold certain mortgage loans and retained the related servicing rights.

NOTE 5 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK A. PURCHASE AND SALES COMMITMENTS. In the normal course of business, there are various commitments and contingent liabilities outstanding pertaining to the purchase and sale of securities which are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Bank does not anticipate any material losses as a result of these transactions. There were no outstanding commitments to purchase or sell securities at March 31, 1994. B. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These instruments expose the Bank to credit risk which is not included in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Position. - 11 - The Bank's exposure to credit risk is represented by the contractual amount of the loan commitments and letters of credit summarized below: March 31, 1994 December 31, 1993 -------------- ----------------- (Amounts in thousands) Loan Commitments Commitments to extend credit $18,116 $ 43,832 Unadvanced commercial lines of credit 4,248 6,115 Unadvanced portion of construction loans 1,785 1,881 Unused portion of Home Equity Lines of Credit 57,837 56,331 Other consumer lines of credit 613 635 ------- -------- Total $82,599 $108,794 ------- -------- ------- -------- Letters of credit $ 877 $ 1,643 ------- -------- ------- -------- Loan commitments are agreements to lend and are subject to the same credit policies as loans and generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. The Bank also issues traditional letters of credit which commit the Bank to make payments on behalf of its customers based upon specific future events. Since many of the letters of credit are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total letters of credit do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Collateral is obtained based upon management's credit assessment of the customer.

At March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, the Bank had no retail "sweep" repurchase agreements. During 1990, the Company established a $3.0 million line of credit (Note 13), of which $1.4 million was outstanding at both March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993. Interest expense on borrowed funds is summarized as follows: For the Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------------------ 1994 1993 ---- ---- (Amounts in thousands) FHLB of Boston advances $1,649 $1,591 Line of credit 26 34 Repurchase agreements & other borrowings -- 2 ------ ------ Total interest expense on borrowed funds $1,675 $1,627 ------ ------ ------ ------ NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES In February 1992, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109") "Accounting For Income Taxes", which superseded SFAS 96, as amended, which established financial accounting and reporting standards for the effects of income taxes. The statement requires the use of the liability method in determining the tax effect of temporary differences in the recognition of items of income and expense reported in the consolidated financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes. Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted SFAS 109. As a result of the adoption of SFAS 109, the Company recorded the cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle which amounted to $1,548,000 or $.58 per share. - 15 - The allocation of federal and state income taxes between current and deferred portions, calculated using the liability method in 1993 and the deferred method in 1992 is as follows: For the Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------------------ 1994 1993 ---- ---- (Amounts in thousands) Current income tax provision Federal $ 832 $ 867 State 306 322 ------ ------ Total current 1,138 1,189 ------ ------ Deferred income tax provision Federal (92) (145) State (35) (56) ------ ------ Total deferred (127) (201) ------ ------ Total provision for income taxes $1,011 $ 988 ------ ------ ------ ------ The Company's effective income tax rate differed from the Federal statutory tax rate as follows: For The Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------------------- 1994 1993 ---------------- ---------------- (Dollar amounts in thousands) Amount % Amount % ------ ---- ------ ---- Tax at statutory Federal rate $ 851 34.0 $ 775 34.0 State tax* 180 7.2 176 7.7 Dividend income exclusion (20) (0.8) (23) (1.0) Other -- -- 60 2.7 ------- ----- ------ ----- Effective rate on operations $1,011 40.4 $ 988 43.4 ------- ----- ------ ----- ------- ----- ------ ----- <FN> * Net of Federal tax benefit The components of the net deferred tax asset are as follows: March 31, 1994 December 31, 1993 -------------- ------------------ (Amounts in thousands) Deferred tax liability: Federal $ 271 $ 967 State 104 370 ------ ------ 375 1,337 ------ ------ Deferred tax asset: Federal 2,757 2,454 State 1,054 938 ------ ------ 3,811 3,392 ------ ------ Net deferred tax asset $3,436 $2,055 ------ ------ ------ ------ - 16 - The tax effects of each item of income and expense that give rise to deferred taxes are: March 31, 1994 December 31, 1993 ------------------------------ (Amounts in thousands) Allowances for losses $2,072 $2,132 Depreciation (137) (171) Deferred loan fees 130 43 Deferred compensation 197 191 Loan expense 264 249 Employee benefits 387 382 Intangible asset 197 157 ------ ------ 3,110 2,983 Unrealized gains 326 (928) ------ ------ Net deferred tax asset $3,436 $2,055 ------ ------ ------ ------ A summary of the change in the net deferred tax asset for the three months ended March 31, 1994 and 1993 is as follows (Amounts in thousands): Deferred tax asset at December 31, 1993 $2,055 Cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle --- Deferred tax provision: Income and expense 127 Unrealized gains 1,254 ------ Net deferred tax asset at March 31, 1994 $3,436 ------ ------ Deferred tax asset at December 31, 1992 $ 555 Cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle 1,548 Deferred tax provision 201 ------ Net deferred tax asset at March 31, 1993 $2,304 ------ ------ NOTE 10 - BENEFIT PLANS A. RETIREMENT PLAN The Bank has a defined benefit pension plan which is noncontributory and covers all full-time employees who meet certain age and length of service requirements. Benefits are based on years of service and the employee's highest compensation during any consecutive five year period during the last ten years before normal retirement. The Bank's funding policy is to contribute annually amounts at least equal to minimum required contributions under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Contributions are intended to provide not only for benefits attributed to service to date, but also for those expected to be earned in the future. The components of the net pension expense reflected in Employee benefits expense were as follows: For the Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------------------ 1994 1993 ---- ---- (Amounts in thousands) Service cost-benefits earned during the period $100 $ 66 Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 76 68 Expected return on plan assets (97) (80) Net amortization and deferral (2) (1) ----- ------ Net pension expense $ 77 $ 53 ----- ----- ----- ----- - 17 - Assumptions used in the accounting were: For the Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------------------ 1994 1993 ---- ---- Discount/settlement rates 7.00% 7.00% Rates of increase in compensation levels 5.00% 5.50% Expected long-term rate of return on assets 9.50% 9.50% The following table sets forth the plan's funded status and amounts recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Position at December 31, 1993 (Amounts in thousands): Actuarial present value of benefit obligations: Accumulated benefit obligation - vested $2,950 Accumulated benefit obligation - nonvested 340 ------- Total accumulated benefit obligation 3,290 Effect of projected future compensation levels 1,000 ------- Projected benefit obligation (PBO) for service rendered to date 4,290 Plan assets, at fair value * 3,885 ------- "PBO" in excess of plan assets (405) Unrecognized net asset existing at January 1, 1987 being recognized over approximately 18 years (102) Unrecognized net loss from past experience different from that assumed and effects of changes in assumptions 300 ------- Accrued pension cost included in Other liabilities $ (206) ------- ------- <FN> * The plan's assets are allocated among equity securities and various short and intermediate term bond funds. B. DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN. The Bank has adopted deferred compensation agreements for its directors whereby directors can defer earned fees to future years with benefits commencing at retirement or pre-retirement benefits at death prior to retirement. The deferred compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 1994 and 1993 was approximately $24,000 and $23,200, respectively. The Bank has purchased life insurance policies which it intends to use to fund the retirement benefits. For income tax purposes, no deduction is allowed for the insurance premium expense or deferred compensation expense, but a deduction will be allowed at the time compensation is paid to the participant. For the quarters ended March 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively, the Company had no insurance premium expenses as policy loans were utilized to fund premiums due. C. THRIFT PLAN. The Bank has established a defined contribution thrift plan (the "Thrift Plan") covering eligible employees. Full-time employees are eligible to participate in the Thrift Plan upon completion of six months of service. Eligible employees participating in the Thrift Plan may contribute between one percent and ten percent of their pre-tax annual compensation. If an employee contributes the maximum ten percent of annual compensation, the employee may also contribute an additional ten percent of post tax annual compensation. The Bank contributes $.50 out of net income to the Thrift Plan for each $1.00 contributed by participants up to three percent of each participant's compensation. The Bank's expense for the quarters ended March 31, 1994 and 1993 was $22,800 and $13,900, respectively. D. POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSION The Bank provides certain health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees. Substantially all of the Bank's employees become eligible if they reach normal retirement age while still working for the Bank. These benefits are provided through an insurance company whose premiums are based on the benefits paid during the year. The premium is paid by the Bank is based on the retiree's length of service with the Bank. The Company adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106 "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions" ("SFAS No. 106") in 1992. The statement requires that the projected future costs of providing postretirement benefits be recognized as an expense as employees render service, instead of when the benefits are paid. Prior to the adoption of this statement in 1992, the Company recognized postretirement benefit expense as paid. - 18 - The following table sets forth the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (APBO) reconciled to the accrued postretirement benefit expense included in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Position at the year ended December 31, 1993. December 31, 1993 ---------------------- (Amounts in thousands) Accumulated Postretirement Benefit Obligation Retirees $ (613) Fully eligible active plan participants (551) Other active plan participants (1,566) ------- Total APBO (2,730) Unrecognized transition obligation 2,022 Unrecognized net gain from past experience different from that assumed and effects of changes in assumptions (4) ------- Accrued postretirement benefit cost $ (712) ------- ------- The APBO includes approximately $2,163,000 attributable to the Company's postretirement health care plan. Net periodic postretirement benefit cost reflected in Employee benefits included the following components. For the Three Months Ended March 31, 1994 1993 ------ ------ (Amounts in thousands) Service cost-benefits attributable to service during the period $ 70 $ 44 Interest cost on APBO 42 47 Amortization of transition obligation 25 26 ---- ---- Net periodic postretirement benefit cost $137 $117 ---- ---- ---- ---- For measurement purposes, a 15.0% annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered health care benefits was assumed in 1993. The rate was assumed to decrease gradually to 4.5% in year 16 and remain at that level thereafter. The health care cost trend rate assumption has a significant effect on the amounts reported. The weighted-average discount rate used in determining the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was 7.5%. - 19 - NOTE 11 - EARNINGS PER SHARE Primary and fully diluted earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period and additional common shares assumed to be outstanding to reflect the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. Stock options and their equivalents are included in earnings per share computations using the treasury stock method, which assumes that the options are exercised at the beginning of the period. Proceeds from such exercise are assumed to be used to repurchase common stock. The difference between the number of common shares assumed to have been issued from the exercise of options and the number of common shares assumed to have been purchased are added to the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Potential dilution due to exercisable stock options was not material for the three month period ended March 31, 1993 and is, therefore, not reflected in the computation of per share amounts for that period (Note 12). NOTE 12 - STOCK OPTIONS Under the Company's stock option plan 303,807 shares (adjusted to reflect stock dividends) of common stock are reserved. At the time options are granted, no accounting entry is made. The proceeds from the exercise of options are credited to common stock for the par value of the shares purchased and the excess of the option price over the par value of the share issued is credited to additional paid-in capital. The exercise price of options granted approximated the fair market value of the shares on the dates granted. Additionally, stock appreciation rights have been granted in tandem with stock options. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, compensation accruals are required for SAR when the market value exceeds the option exercise price. However, compensation expense should be measured according to the terms the Company's SAR holders are most likely to elect based upon the facts available each period. Accordingly, no expense accruals have been made through March 31, 1994 in as much as management does not anticipate exercise of SAR at this time. The following table and the data below summarizes the shares subject to option under the plan which have been adjusted to reflect stock dividends declared: For The Three Months Ended March 31, 1994 ----------------------------------------- Outstanding at beginning of period 233,190 Granted 45,234 Cancelled (2,761) ---------- Outstanding at end of period 275,663 ---------- ---------- As of March 31, 1994, 275,663 options were exercisable at prices ranging from $9.95 to $21.57. At March 31, 1994, there were 275,663 options in the plan that remained outstanding. Through March 31, 1994, 26,034 options have been exercised and 45,590 options, adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends, have been cancelled. 2,110 options are available for grant. - 20 - NOTE 13 - CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF DS BANCOR, INC.

This loan bears an interest rate of prime plus one percent, which was 7.0% at March 31, 1994, and will be repaid through six equal annual installments, the first of which was paid in April, 1991 (Notes 8 and 15). NOTE 14 - ACQUISITION OF BURRITT INTERFINANCIAL BANCORPORATION On December 4, 1992, Derby Savings entered into an Insured Deposit Purchase and Assumption Agreement ("P & A") with the FDIC, pursuant to which Derby purchased certain assets and assumed the insured deposits and certain other liabilities of Burritt Interfinancial Bancorporation, New Britain, Connecticut in an FDIC-assisted transaction. In the transaction, the Bank assumed approximately $460 million of insured deposits and approximately $5.5 million of other liabilities of Burritt. The assets of Burritt acquired included cash, various investment securities and certain other assets totaling approximately $54.0 million and two loan pools of one-to-four family mortgage loans and consumer loans, with book values of approximately $139.7 million and $29.6 million, respectively. The loan pools, at December 31, 1992, included non-accrual loans totaling approximately $6.1 million and $221,000, respectively. The loans acquired in this transaction were purchased at a $10.4 million discount, which had been added to the Bank's allowance for loan losses. Specific allocations of the acquired allowance for loan losses, to reflect the fair value of loans acquired, have been made as management of the Bank identified probable losses. During 1993, the Bank completed the valuation analysis of the loans acquired in connection with the Burritt transaction. As a result of this analysis, the Company allocated $6.0 million of the Burritt allowance for loan losses as a purchased loan discount (Note 4). This amount will be accreted to interest revenue over the remaining terms of the acquired loans. The FDIC advanced approximately $225 million in cash to Derby in partial settlement of the difference between the amount of deposits and liabilities assumed and the assets acquired by Derby, less the $6.2 million premium paid by Derby in the transaction. Of the premium paid to the FDIC, the Bank recorded $5.0 million as a core deposit intangible included in Other assets. The assets purchased and the liabilities assumed in the Burritt transaction were subject to adjustment up to the settlement date, December 3, 1993, to reflect the actual book value of the assets and liabilities acquired. During 1993, through a series of interim settlements, the FDIC paid Derby approximately $15.4 million, which reflects the net adjustments of the assets and liabilities acquired and certain other adjustments (including any costs, expenses and fees associated with certain determinations of value) as provided in the P & A. - 24 - As part of the transaction, the Bank acquired the right to service loans for others which totaled approximately $107.1 million at December 31, 1992. Approximately $1.1 million of the premium paid to the FDIC has been allocated to the tangible value of acquired mortgage servicing rights, included in Other assets. This amount will be amortized over the expected future life of the serviced loans as a reduction to serviced loan fee income. Additionally, the Bank entered into an interim management agreement with the FDIC pursuant to which the Bank would service loans which at December 31, 1992 totaled $258.9 million. The servicing of these loans for the FDIC ended September 30, 1993. In connection with the transaction, Derby acquired an option to acquire or lease Burritt's 13 banking offices and related equipment. The Bank exercised its option with respect to 11 of such banking offices. The offices acquired are located in the towns of New Britain (5 offices), Newington, East Hartford, Plainville, Rocky Hill, West Hartford and Glastonbury, Connecticut. Derby did not exercise its option with respect to the two Burritt banking offices located in Vernon and Southington, Connecticut. Such offices were closed and not opened by Derby. Three of Burritt's offices were owned and, in accordance with the P & A, were appraised in order to establish their fair value. In 1993, the Bank purchased two of these offices and entered into a short-term rental agreement with the FDIC on the third. In June 1994, the Bank will be relocating the operations of the former main office of Burritt, which the Bank was renting from the FDIC. Of the remaining 8 banking offices which had been leased by Burritt, one had been assumed by the Bank. Through March 31, 1994, the Bank entered into leases on four of the seven locations formerly leased by Burritt and is renegotiating the terms of two of the remaining locations. The Bank closed one of the acquired former branch offices of Burritt in January 1994. NOTE 15 - MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING In the second quarter of 1992, the Board of Directors of Derby Savings entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the "Memorandum") with the FDIC and the Connecticut Commissioner of Banks. The Memorandum calls for the Board of Directors of the Bank to develop a written plan to reduce the level of assets classified "substandard" and to establish target levels for the reduction of adversely classified assets to 75% of total equity capital and reserves by December 31, 1992 and to 50% of total equity capital and reserves within a reasonable time thereafter. At March 31, 1994, the level of assets classified "substandard" represented 40% of the Bank's total equity capital and reserves. The Memorandum also calls for the level of delinquent loans to be reduced to no more than 7% of gross loans by December 31, 1992 and to 5% of gross loans by December 31, 1993. At March 31, 1994, delinquent loans totaled $29.4 million or 3.6% of total loans. Additionally, the Memorandum limits the payment of cash dividends by the Bank to DS Bancor to the Company's debt service and non-salary expenses. In connection with the Burritt transaction, the FDIC modified the terms of the Memorandum which pertained to the maintenance of capital ratios. The Memorandum initially required that the Bank maintain a ratio of tier 1 capital to total assets of at least 5.5% and if the ratio fell below 7%, the Bank was required to notify the FDIC and the Connecticut Commissioner. The modification requires Derby to have tier 1 capital in excess of 5% of total assets by December 31, 1993 and tier 1 capital at or above 5.75% of total assets by December 31, 1994. The Bank's tier 1 capital ratio at March 31, 1994 was 5.2%, which exceeded the FDIC requirement applicable at that date. The Bank expects to achieve the December 31, 1994 capital target through maintaining asset size at current levels and earnings retention. - 25 - SELECTED FINANCIAL AND OTHER DATA (Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data) For The Quarter Ended March 31, --------------------- 1994 1993 --------- --------- (unaudited) OPERATING DATA: Interest revenue $18,293 $18,987 Interest expense 9,962 11,651 --------- --------- Net interest revenue 8,331 7,336 Provision for loan losses 600 450 --------- --------- Net interest revenue after provision for loan losses 7,731 6,886 Other revenue, net 863 1,794 Other expenses 6,091 6,402 --------- --------- Income before income taxes and cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle 2,503 2,278 Provision for income taxes 1,011 988 --------- --------- Income before cumulative effect if a change in accounting principle 1,492 1,290 Cumulative effect of a change in method of accounting for income taxes -- 1,548 --------- --------- Net Income $1,492 $2,838 --------- --------- --------- --------- Earnings Per Share--Primary Income before cumulative effect if a change in accounting principle $0.54 $0.49 Cumulative effect of a change in method of accounting for income taxes -- $0.58 Net Income $0.54 $1.07 Earnings Per Share--Fully Diluted Income before cumulative effect if a change in accounting principle $0.54 $0.49 Cumulative effect of a change in method of accounting for income taxes -- $0.58 Net Income $0.54 $1.07 STATISTICAL DATA: Net interest rate spread (a) 2.74% 2.42% Net yield on average interest-earning assets (a) 2.89% 2.58% Return on average assets (a) 0.49% 0.96% Return on average stockholders' equity (a) 8.93% 18.94% Average stockholders' equity to average assets 5.48% 5.06% MARKET PRICES OF COMMON STOCK: High $27.50 $22.25 Low $23.75 $16.50 At March 31 $25.75 $18.00 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND OTHER DATA AT: March 31, December 31 1994 1993 ---------- ---------- (unaudited) Total assets $1,226,961 $1,194,121 Loan portfolio, net 808,279 779,287 Investment portfolio 352,656 322,599 Deposits 1,019,800 1,006,221 Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston advances 128,332 104,991 Other borrowings 1,450 1,450 Stockholders' equity 66,170 66,440 Book value per share 24.95 25.06 Leverage ratio 5.10% 5.11% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets 9.19% 8.87% Total capital to risk-weighted assets 10.18% 9.89% Non-performing loans 11,056 12,068 Foreclosed & in-substance foreclosed assets 16,707 16,143 ---------- ---------- Total non-performing assets 27,763 28,211 Restructured loans 2,264 2,273 Allowance for loan losses 6,777 (b) 6,979 Allowance as a percentage of non-performing loans 61.3% 57.8% <FN> - -------------------------------------------------- (a) Annualized.

Net income for the first quarter ended March 31, 1994 totaled $1,492,00 or $.54 per share (fully diluted) compared to $2,838,000 or $1.07 per share (fully diluted) for the comparable period in 1993. Net income for the first quarter of 1993 included $1,548,000 or $.58 per share, resulting from the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109. This amount represented the cumulative effect of a change in accounting for income taxes effective January 1, 1993. Net income before the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle totaled $1,290,000 or $.49 per share. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1994 represented an annualized return on average assets of .49% compared to .96% for the corresponding period in 1993. Net income for the current period reflected a $202,000 or 15.7% increase compared to income before the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle for year earlier period. There were several changes in the components that comprise net income. For the current quarter compared to the year earlier period, net interest revenue increased $1.0 million and other expense decreased $311,000, both of which were partially offset by a $931,000 decline in other revenue. INTEREST REVENUE. Interest and fee revenue from loans and interest on the investment portfolio decreased $694,000 or 3.7% during the three months ended March 31, 1994 compared to the corresponding period in 1993. The decrease in interest revenue was due to the decline in the yield on average interest-earning assets, which was partially offset by the interest revenue resulting from an increase in average interest-earning assets outstanding. The average yield on interest-earning assets declined 34 basis points (100 basis points equals one percent) from 6.68% during the first quarter of 1993 to 6.34% during the current quarter. The decline in the yield reflects the general decline in the level of interest rates between the two periods. Average interest-earning assets increased $16.5 million or 1.5% during the current quarter compared to the comparable 1993 period. This increase was essentially due to the growth in total average assets between the two periods. Reflecting the Company's objective of allocating financial resources from investments to loans, average loans outstanding increased $66.8 million or 9.3%, while the average of all other interest-earning assets decreased $50.3 million or 12.0%. For the quarter ended March 31, 1994, interest on loans includes the amortization of previously deferred fees of $110,000, which increased the yield on average interest-earning assets by 4 basis points. For the comparable 1993 period, interest on loans included the amortization of previously deferred fees which totaled $187,000 and increased the yield on average interest-earning assets by 7 basis points. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased $1,689,000 or 14.5% during the three months ended March 31, 1994 compared to the corresponding period in 1993. This decrease was essentially due to a general decline in the average cost of funds during the current period which more than offset the effect of the increase in average interest-bearing liabilities. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $12.6 million or 1.2% during the current period compared to the comparable 1993 period. NET INTEREST REVENUE. As a result of the changes in interest revenue and interest expense noted above, net interest revenue increased $1.0 million or 13.6% from $7.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1993 to $8.3 million during the current quarter. The net interest rate spread improved 32 basis points from 2.42% during the first quarter of 1993 to 2.74% during the first quarter of 1994. - 27 - The following table summarizes the Bank's net interest revenue (including dividends) and net yield on average interest-earning assets. Non-accruing loans, for the purpose of this analysis, are included in average loans outstanding during the periods indicated. For the purpose of these computations, daily average amounts were used to compute average balances.

The following table sets forth the changes in interest earned and interest paid resulting from changes in volume and changes in rates. Changes in interest earned or paid due to both rate and volume have been allocated in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the changes in each. There were no material out of period items or adjustments included in interest revenue or interest expense during the periods indicated. Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------------- 1994 Compared to 1993 --------------------- Volume Rate Net ------ -------- ------- (Amounts in thousands) Interest earned on: Loans $1,200 $(1,135) $ 65 Taxable investment securities 382 (580) (198) Federal funds (419) (24) (443) FHLB of Boston stock 23 (1) 22 Other interest-earning assets (70) (70) (140) -------- -------- -------- Interest revenue 1,116 (1,810) 694 -------- -------- -------- Interest paid on: Deposits 111 (1,848) (1,737) Borrowed funds 23 25 48 -------- -------- -------- Interest expense 134 (1,823) (1,689) -------- -------- -------- Net interest revenue $ 982 $ 13 $ 995 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. The Bank provided $600,000 for loan losses during the first quarter of 1994 compared to $450,000 for the comparable 1993 period. At the end of the first quarter of 1994, the Company's allowance for loan losses totaled $6.8 million, representing 61.3% of loans past due 90 days or more and non-accruing loans. The allowance for loan losses includes $2.2 million allocated to the loans acquired in the Burritt transaction (see notes to Consolidated financial statements). OTHER REVENUE. Other revenue decreased $931,000 or 51.9% from $1,794,000 during the first quarter of 1993 to $863,000 during the first quarter of 1994. Service charges and other revenue, comprised principally of loan service and deposit related fees, decreased $1,173,000 from $1,756,000 for the first quarter of 1993 to $583,000 for the current quarter. As part of the Burritt transaction, the Bank was servicing a pool of loans for the FDIC on an interim basis (through September, 1993). The fees earned by the Bank for providing this service amounted to $1,140,000 for the first quarter of 1993. Net securities and other gains increased from $38,000 in the 1993 period to $280,000 in the 1994 period. OTHER EXPENSES. Other expenses decreased $311,000 or 4.9% from $6,402,000 during the first quarter of 1993 to $6,091,000 during the corresponding period in 1994. Salaries and employee benefits, the largest component of the Company's cost of operations, increased $173,000 or 7.5% from $2,320,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 1993 to $2,493,000 during the current quarter. All other operating expenses, in the aggregate, decreased $484,000 or 11.9% from $4,082,000 during the first quarter of 1993 to $3,598,000 for the comparable 1994 period. The decline in all other expenses was attributable to the decline in foreclosed asset expense which totaled $544,000 in the first quarter of 1994 compared to $1,242,000 for the comparable 1993 quarter. Included in this expense is the provision for foreclosed assets which amounted to $400,000 in the current quarter compared to $975,000 for the year earlier period. The Company expects that until the level of foreclosed assets declines substantially, foreclosed asset expense will continue to be significant. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation premium increased from $494,000 for the 1993 period to $726,000 for the current period. The increased volume of insured deposits assumed in the Burritt transaction, in large part, accounted for the $232,000 or 47.0% increase in the premium paid in the current quarter compared to the year earlier period. - 29 - As required by the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 91, the Bank deferred certain direct costs resulting from the origination of loans. These deferred costs, which are principally comprised of salaries, employee benefits and other loan expenses, totaled approximately $445,000 for the current quarter compared to $355,000 for the year earlier period. NET NON-INTEREST MARGIN. The net non-interest margin, the difference between other revenue (non-interest revenue) and other expenses (non-interest expense) as a percentage of average assets (annualized) outstanding, decreased by 17 basis points from (1.55%) during the quarter ended March 31, 1993 to (1.72%) during the current 1994 period. Other revenue, as a percentage of average assets (annualized), decreased from .61% to .28% for the quarters ended March 31, 1993 and 1994, respectively. Other expenses, as a percentage of average assets (annualized), decreased 16 basis points from 2.16% during the quarter ended March 31, 1993 to 2.00% during the current quarter. NET NON-INTEREST REVENUE/EXPENSE ANALYSIS AS A PERCENTAGE OF AVERAGE ASSETS Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------------ 1994 1993 ------ ------ Non-interest revenue .28 .61 ------ ------ Non-interest expense Foreclosed asset .18 .42 FDIC insurance .24 .17 Other 1.58 1.57 ------ ------ Total non-interest expense 2.00 2.16 ------ ------ Net non-interest margin (1.72) (1.55) ------ ------ ------ ------ PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The provision for income taxes during the current quarter totaled $1,011,000, reflecting a 40.4% effective income tax rate compared to $988,000 or an effective income tax rate of 43.4% for the comparable 1993 period on income before the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE. In February 1992, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109") "Accounting For Income Taxes", which superseded SFAS 96, as amended, which established financial accounting and reporting standards for the effects of income taxes. The Statement requires the use of the liability method in determining the tax effect of temporary differences in the recognition of items of income and expense reported in the consolidated financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes. Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted SFAS 109. As a result of the adoption of SFAS 109, the Company recorded the cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle which amounted to $1,548,000 or $.58 per share. FINANCIAL CONDITION The Company's assets totaled $1.23 billion at March 31, 1994 compared to $1.19 billion at December 31, 1993. The assets of the Company are primarily invested in loans to residents and, to a lesser extent, the businesses located in the Bank's market area. At March 31, 1994, approximately $815.1 million, representing 66.4% of the Company's assets, were comprised of loans, compared to $786.3 million or 65.8% of total assets at December 31, 1993. The predominant thrust of the Bank's lending business is to provide financing for residential real estate. Essentially as a result of the relatively low level of interest rates available for residential mortgage loans during the fourth quarter of 1993, which fostered a rise in the level of loan applications, the Bank's loan portfolio increased $29.0 million or 3.7% during the first quarter of the year. As in 1993, the large majority of the residential real estate loans made by the Bank during the quarter were for the refinance of previously outstanding loans. Nonetheless, the Bank achieved a net growth in - 30 - outstanding loans. Curtailing the growth in the loan portfolio during the first quarter 1993 was the sale of approximately $8.8 million in mortgage loans and the reclassification of $1.5 million of loans to in-substance foreclosed assets. The Bank has positioned itself in the market area that it serves primarily as a provider of consumer financing and, to a lesser extent, as a provider of commercial and business loans. At March 31, 1994, $658.0 million or 80.7% of the Bank's loans were for the financing of one-to-four family residences and $92.8 million or 11.4% of the Bank's loans were allocated to consumer loans, primarily home equity lines of credit. In the aggregate, at March 31, 1994, these two segments of the Bank's loan portfolio represented 92.1% of the Bank's total loans. During the first quarter, the level of non-performing assets, which include loans past due 90 days or more, non-accrual loans, and foreclosed and in-substance foreclosed assets (see Note 1 to Consolidated Financial Statements) continued to trend down. At March 31, 1994, non-performing assets totaled $27.8 million, representing 2.3% of total assets compared to $28.2 million or 2.4% of total assets at year end 1993. At March 31, 1994, foreclosed and in-substance foreclosed assets totaled $16.7 million, representing 1.4% of total assets, compared to $16.1 million or 1.4% of total assets at year end 1993. The following table sets forth non-accrual loans and loans past due for 90 days or more, including loans in foreclosure, and the allowance for loan losses at the dates indicated: March 31, 1994 December 31, 1993 ---------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------- (Dollar amounts in thousands) Allowance for Allowance for Loans Past Due Loan Losses Loans Past Due Loan Losses ---------------------- --------------------- ---------------------- ----------------------- % of Loans % of Loans % of Loans % of Loans Loan Type Balance Outstanding Balance(1) Past due Balance Outstanding Balance(1) Past due - --------- ------- ----------- -------- ---------- ------- ----------- ---------- ---------- Real Estate 1-4 Family $ 5,841 0.9% $ 5,665 0.9% Commercial 181 0.8 681 2.5 Construction --- -- --- -- Multi-family 2,628 36.1 2,628 30.8 ------- ------- Total 8,650 1.3 $ 4,497 52.0% 8,974 1.4 $ 4,605 51.3% ------- ------- Consumer HELOC 759 1.1 945 1.4 All other 527 2.1 750 2.8 Total 1,286 1.4 1,047 81.4 1,695 1.8 1,193 70.3 ------- ------- Commercial Real estate development 488 13.5 623 16.3 All other 632 2.4 776 2.9 ------- ------- Total 1,120 3.7 1,233 110.0 1,399 4.6 1,181 84.4 ------- ------- ------- ------- Total Loans $11,056 1.4 $ 6,777 61.3 $12,068 1.5 $ 6,979 57.8 ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- (1) The Bank reallocated $6 million of the allowance allocated to the loans acquired in the Burritt transaction to a purchased loan discount. The Company's loan portfolio is segregated into three broad categories of loans: real estate, consumer and commercial. The Company's investment in real estate loans totaled $691.8 million, representing 56.4% of total assets at March 31, 1994 compared to $660.6 million or 55.3% of total assets at year end 1993. The Bank experienced a significant rise in the level of mortgage loan applications, predominantly for the refinance of residential property. As previously noted and reflected in the growth in the Bank's loan portfolio, the majority of the refinance activity were loans previously outstanding with other lenders. Mortgage loans closed during the first quarter of 1994 totaled $83.9 million. - 31 - The Bank continued to supplement local loan originations through the purchase of single family adjustable rate mortgage loans. The Bank purchased $1.2 million of these loans during the first quarter of 1994 compared to $2.3 million during comparable 1993 period. The origination and purchase of adjustable rate loans is an integral part of the Bank's management of interest rate risk. (See "Asset/Liability Management".) The Bank's investment in real estate mortgages is primarily secured by residential properties and, to a lesser extent, multi-family housing. This portfolio also includes financing for commercial real estate and real estate development and construction. Loans to finance one-to-four family residences totaled $658.0 million or 80.7% of the Bank's total loan portfolio at March 31, 1994 compared to $621.6 million, representing 79.1% of the total loan portfolio, at year end 1993. The level of loans past due 90 days or more totaled $5.8 million or .9% of this portfolio at March 31, 1994 compared to $5.7 million or .9% of the portfolio at year end 1993. Multi-family housing loans totaled $7.3 million or .9% of the total loan portfolio at March 31, 1994 compared to $8.5 million or 1.1% of the total loan portfolio at year end 1993. At March 31, 1994, loans past due 90 days or more totaled $2.6 million or 36.1% of this portfolio compared to $2.6 million or 30.8% at year end 1993. Loans to finance commercial real estate totaled $24.0 million or 2.9% of the total loan portfolio at March 31, 1994, of which $.2 million or .8% were past due 90 days or more. At year end 1993, this portfolio totaled $27.7 million, representing 3.5% of total loans, of which $.7 million or 2.5% were past due 90 days or more. The fourth group of loans included in the Bank's real estate mortgage portfolio were made to finance real estate construction, primarily residential condominiums and single family residences. This portfolio of loans totaled $2.5 million or .3% of total loans at March 31, 1994 compared to $2.8 million or .4% of total loans at year end 1993. At March 31, 1994 and year end 1993, there were no loans in this loan category past due 90 days or more. Unadvanced construction commitments approximated $443,000 at March 31, 1994 and $533,000 at year end 1993. The Company's investment in consumer loans totaled $92.8 million, representing 11.4% of total loans at March 31, 1994, compared to $95.5 million or 12.1% of total loans at year end 1993. The consumer loan portfolio is primarily comprised of home equity lines of credit, which complement the Bank's primary business of providing financing for single family residences. The home equity line of credit, which is collateralized by the equity in residential real property, has become the Bank's second largest investment in loans. Home equity lines of credit totaled $125.6 million, with $67.2 million in use at March 31, 1994 compared to $124.8 million, with $68.4 million in use at year end 1993. At March 31, 1994, consumer loans past due 90 days or more totaled $1.3 million or 1.4% of this portfolio. Home equity lines of credit included in this amount totaled $759,000, representing 1.1% of HELOCs outstanding. In comparison, at year end 1993, consumer loans past due 90 days or more totaled $1.7 million or 1.8% of the consumer loan portfolio, including $945,000, representing 1.4% of the home equity lines of credit. The Company also provides credit to the businesses located within the Bank's market area. The Bank's commercial lending department invests in loans for the development of real estate and other business needs. The Bank's investment in commercial loans totaled $30.5 million at March 31, 1994, essentially unchanged from the $30.1 million invested at year end 1993. At March 31, 1994, $3.6 million or 11.9% of this portfolio was invested in loans for the development of real estate and $26.9 million or 88.1% was invested in loans for various business needs. Unadvanced real estate development commitments totaled $1.3 million at March 31, 1994, compared to $1.3 million at year end 1993. At March 31, 1994, loans past due 90 days or more totaled $1.1 million, representing 3.7% of the commercial loan portfolio compared to $1.4 million or 4.6% at year end 1993. - 32 - NON-PERFORMING ASSETS. The following table summarizes the Bank's non-accrual loans, accruing loans past due 90 days or more, and foreclosed and in-substance foreclosed assets.

At March 31, 1994, the Bank had $9.3 million in foreclosed assets, consisting of 45 properties, compared to $9.4 million, consisting of 44 properties at year end 1993. During the first quarter of 1994, the Bank reclassified $1.5 million in loans to in-substance foreclosed assets. At March 31, 1994, the Bank had $8.4 million, consisting of 54 properties, classified as in-substance foreclosed assets compared to $7.8 million, consisting of 50 properties, at year end 1993. In the aggregate, the Bank is carrying 99 properties, totaling $16.7 million, net of a $1.0 million valuation allowance, in foreclosed and in-substance foreclosed assets. This compares to 94 properties, totaling $16.1 million, net of a $1.0 million valuation allowance, at year end 1993. During the past several years, as the volume of assets acquired by the Bank through the foreclosure process increased and the value of the underlying real estate declined, the Bank adopted a policy of reappraising foreclosed and in-substance foreclosed assets on at least an annual basis. This policy has assisted the Bank in quantifying the net realizable value of these assets, and has provided the basis, as necessary, for subsequent write-downs of the carrying amount of these assets. Additionally, in order to provide for unidentified and possible future declines in the value of foreclosed assets, the Bank established an allowance for foreclosed assets in 1991. This allowance is funded through a provision for foreclosed assets which is charged to and included in foreclosed asset expense. In the quarter ended March 31, 1994, the Bank provided $400,000 to this allowance compared to $975,000 in the comparable 1993 period. During the current quarter, the Bank charged $480,000 in specific write-downs against this allowance compared to $1.0 million during the year earlier period. At March 31, 1994, the allowance for foreclosed assets totaled $961,000 compared to $1.0 million at year end 1993. - 33 - The reduction of non-performing assets has been one of the primary objectives of the Bank and, as noted, total non-performing assets declined modestly during the current quarter. A principal focus in 1994 will be a continuation of the Bank's efforts to reduce the level of non-performing assets. Continued weakness in the local economy suggests that progress in this area will be moderate. The amount of loans past due 60 days has declined to $6.2 million at March 31, 1994, representing .8% of the total loan portfolio compared to $8.0 million or 1.0% of the total loan portfolio at year end 1993. The foundation of the Bank's program to reduce the level of non- performing assets is the loan collection and workout process. In addition to the personnel assigned to the collection/workout area, the Bank has two officers responsible for the management and sale of foreclosed assets. This increasingly important function of the Bank is supported by a standing committee of the Board of Directors, comprised of individuals experienced in the areas of real estate sales and development, which was established to assist and give advice on the management and disposition of troubled assets. To the extent that the Bank ultimately takes title to troubled assets, the Board of Directors and management of the Bank have established several programs to facilitate the timely disposition of foreclosed assets. The foundation of these programs is to establish fair and realistic value for foreclosed assets, taking into consideration the potential opportunity cost associated with lengthy marketing time. The Bank augments this pricing policy through preferred Bank financing, including special first-time home-buyer programs. To further expand sales efforts and reduce market time, the Bank also maintains consistent marketing programs and premium realtor commissions. The employment of these programs has enabled the Bank to sell and close on 9 properties for an aggregate consideration of $900,000 in the first quarter of 1994. During the comparable 1993 period, the Bank sold and closed on 16 properties for an aggregate consideration of $1.5 million. At March 31, 1994, one condominium project was included in foreclosed assets. The Bank's net investment in this project was $2.8 million at March 31, 1994. Thirty-two units in this project have been completed and sold. The Bank is currently pursuing the sale of the remaining land available for future development. The following table summarizes the Bank's accruing loans past due 60 days: March 31, At December 31, ----------------------- ----------------------------------------------------- 1994 1993 1993 1992 1991 1990 1989 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- (Amounts in thousands) Loans past due 60 days: Mortgage............. $ 4,870 $ 9,299 $ 7,369 $ 8,829 $ 9,072 $ 5,062 $ 4,534 Consumer............. 1,019 689 651 815 525 753 561 Commercial........... 330 282 --- 95 353 870 295 ------- ------- -------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Total.................. $ 6,219 $10,270 $ 8,020 $ 9,739 $ 9,950 $ 6,685 $ 5,390 ------- ------- -------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- -------- ------- ------- ------- ------- In order to maintain the quality of the loan portfolio, as well as to provide for potential losses that are inherent in the lending process, the Bank controls its lending activities through adherence to loan policies adopted by the Board of Directors and stringent underwriting standards. To provide for possible losses within the loan portfolio, the Company maintains an allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is maintained through the provision for loan losses which is a charge to earnings. This provision is determined on a quarterly basis, based upon management's review of the anticipated uncollectability of loans, current economic conditions, overall portfolio quality, specific problem loans and an assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Based on these factors, the Company provided $600,000 to the allowance for loan losses during the current quarter compared to $450,000 during the comparable 1993 period. During the current quarter the Bank wrote off $802,000 (net of recoveries). - 34 - As part of the Burritt transaction, the Bank purchased approximately $169.3 million of loans at a $10.4 million discount, which was initially added to the Bank's allowance for loan losses. This discount was based upon management's assessment of the potential credit risk inherent in the portfolios acquired. During 1993, the Bank completed the valuation analysis of the loans acquired in the Burritt transaction. As a result of this analysis, the Bank allocated $6.0 million of the Burritt allowance for loan losses as a purchased loan discount. This amount will be accreted to interest revenue over the remaining terms of the acquired loans. At March 31, 1994, the allowance for loan losses totaled $6.8 million, which includes $2.2 million allocated to the loans acquired in the Burritt transaction. In comparison, the allowance for loan losses totaled $7.0 million at year end 1993, which included $2.3 million allocated to the loans acquired in the Burritt transaction. The allowance for loan losses represented 61.3% of non-performing loans at March 31, 1994, compared to 57.8% at year end 1993. In addition to collection and workout efforts, management also monitors and works closely with certain borrowers that may experience financial difficulties. The debtors may be experiencing cash flow problems which inhibit their ability to service their debt in accordance with its terms. This situation may be due to, among other things, a decline in sales, increases in inventories, and vacancies. These conditions may result in a modification of loan terms in order to assist a debtor who has been adversely affected by the state of the local economy. The modification of terms may be in the form of the waiver of principal payments, a reduction in the interest rate or the waiver of interest payments for a specified period of time. At March 31, 1994, in addition to non-performing assets, the Bank had six loan relationships, all of which are secured, totaling $8.1 million, which are being monitored. Included in this amount are four loans totaling $2.3 million, the terms of which have been modified and four loans totaling $3.6 million, which are non- performing. During the past several years, the performance of the Company has been adversely impacted through the loss of interest revenue and increases in the provisions for loan losses. To moderate this effect upon the Company's performance, the Bank, prior to the Burritt transaction, had been following a strategy of increasing the level of interest-earning assets. (See "Asset/Liability Management"). In addition to assertive marketing programs directed toward the origination of loans and deposits, the Bank has also borrowed funds from the FHLB of Boston and allocated these resources to the investment portfolio. The investments made by the Bank were, for the most part, in mortgage-backed securities issued by agencies of the U.S. Government. Additionally, in settlement of the difference between the amount of deposits and liabilities assumed and the assets purchased in the Burritt transaction, the FDIC advanced approximately $240 million to the Bank. These funds have been primarily allocated among various mortgage- backed security investment alternatives and other investment grade securities. As a result of these purchases, the investment portfolio totaled $322.6 million, representing 27.0% of total assets at year end 1993 and $352.7 million or 28.7% of total assets at March 31, 1994. In addition to mortgage-backed securities, the Company's investment portfolio is comprised of investment grade corporate bonds, marketable equity securities and money market preferred stock. The Bank adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 115 as of December 31, 1993. This statement requires, in part, that certain investment securities that are classified as available for sale be recorded at market value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported in a separate component of stockholders' equity. As a result, at March 31, 1994, the Bank recorded an unrealized loss, net of tax, of $459,000 which is included in Stockholders' equity. (See "Consolidated Financial Statements"). FUNDING SOURCES. The investment activities of the Bank are funded from several sources. The primary source of funds is supplied by local depositors and is complimented by advances from the FHLB of Boston. In addition, the Bank is supplied with a steady flow of funds from the amortization and prepayment of loans as well as the amortization and maturity of investment securities. The Bank also derives funds, from time to time, through the sale of loans into the secondary market and allocates the proceeds in accordance with established asset and liability management objectives. During the quarter, deposits increased by $13.6 million or 1.4%, after interest credited of $8.3 million, from $1.006 billion, funding 84.3% of total assets at year end 1993, to $1.02 billion, funding 83.1% of total assets at March 31, 1994. - 35 - Retail deposits are essentially derived from the communities in which the Bank's offices are located. The Bank offers a wide variety of deposit accounts which include money market deposit accounts, certificates of deposit and regular savings. The Bank also utilizes the FHLB of Boston as an alternative source of funds. At March 31, 1994, FHLB of Boston advances totaled $128.3 million, funding 10.5% of total assets, compared to $105.0 million, funding 8.8% of total assets at year end 1993. The flexibility, pricing and repricing characteristics of the funding alternatives offered by the FHLB of Boston have allowed the Bank to match-fund fixed rate commercial mortgage loans, one year adjustable rate mortgage loans and home equity lines of credit. The Bank has also employed funds from the FHLB of Boston to fund the purchase of various mortgage-backed securities. Amortization, prepayments and the sale of loans into the secondary market supplied the Bank with an additional $70.1 million in investable funds during the first quarter of the year. In keeping with the Bank's asset and liability management objectives, the Bank sold $8.8 million in fixed rate mortgage loans during the first quarter of 1994. The Bank has retained servicing on all loans that have been sold and, at March 31, 1994, was servicing $141.3 million of mortgage loans for others. ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT. Derby Savings' asset liability management program is based upon operating the Bank within a framework of fundamentally matching interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities. The purpose of pursuing this policy is to position the Bank to produce stable net interest revenue through all phases of the business cycle and resulting interest rate levels. The table on the following page summarizes the Company's interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities that mature or reprice during the various time periods noted. Loans are net of deferred loan fees and net of non-accruing loans. - 36 - More Than More Than More Than Six Months One Year Three Years Six Month To One To Three To Five or Less Year Years Years ---------- ---------- ----------- ----------- (Dollar amounts in thousands) ASSETS: Total investments $126,475 $82,941 $76,191 $12,101 ---------- ---------- ----------- ----------- Loans: Fixed-rate mortgages 5,799 5,887 26,126 23,201 Adjustable-rate mortgages 211,335 232,028 32,621 3,515 Consumer loans 76,305 7,025 3,455 2,539 Commercial loans 24,353 80 4,691 154 ---------- ---------- ----------- ----------- Total loans 317,792 245,020 66,893 29,409 ---------- ---------- ----------- ----------- Total interest-sensitive assets $444,267 $327,961 $143,084 $41,510 ---------- ---------- ----------- ----------- ---------- ---------- ----------- ----------- LIABILITIES: Regular & club savings $229,347 $ -- $ -- $ -- Certificates of deposit 235,641 100,681 108,042 65,123 Money market accounts 202,804 -- -- -- NOW accounts 48,554 -- -- -- FHLB of Boston advances 32,271 20,050 62,101 10,790 Repurchase agreements & other borrowings 1,450 -- -- -- ---------- ---------- ----------- ----------- TOTAL INTEREST-SENSITIVE LIABILITIES $750,067 $120,731 $170,143 $75,913 ---------- ---------- ----------- ----------- ---------- ---------- ----------- ----------- GAP (repricing difference) ($305,800) $207,230 ($27,059) ($34,403) Cumulative GAP ($305,800) ($98,570) ($125,629) ($160,032) Cumulative GAP/total assets -24.9% -8.0% -10.2% -13.0% Ratio of interest-sensitive assets to interest-sensitive liabilities 59.2% 271.6% 84.1% 54.7% Cumulative ratio of interest-sensitive assets to interest-sensitive liabilities 88.7% 87.9% 85.7% More Than More Than Five Years 10 Years To Ten To 20 More Than Years Years 20 Years Total --------- --------- --------- ---------- (Dollar amounts in thousands) ASSETS: Total investments $15,904 $38,116 $ -- $351,728 --------- --------- --------- ---------- Loans: Fixed-rate mortgages 58,031 61,170 23,835 204,049 Adjustable-rate mortgages 1,656 434 -- 481,589 Consumer loans 1,746 476 -- 91,546 Commercial loans 37 27 -- 29,342 --------- --------- --------- ---------- Total loans 61,470 62,107 23,835 806,526 --------- --------- --------- ---------- TOTAL INTEREST-SENSITIVE ASSETS $77,374 $100,223 $23,835 $1,158,254 --------- --------- --------- ---------- --------- --------- --------- ---------- LIABILITIES: Regular & club savings $ -- $ -- $ -- $229,347 Certificates of deposit -- -- -- 509,487 Money market accounts -- -- -- 202,804 NOW accounts -- -- -- 48,554 FHLB of Boston advances 3,120 -- -- 128,332 Repurchase agreements & other borrowings -- -- -- 1,450 --------- --------- --------- ---------- TOTAL INTEREST-SENSITIVE LIABILITIES $3,120 $ -- $ -- $1,119,974 --------- --------- --------- ---------- --------- --------- --------- ---------- GAP (repricing difference) $74,254 $100,223 $23,835 Cumulative GAP ($85,778) $14,445 $38,280 Cumulative GAP/total assets -7.0% 1.2% 3.1% Ratio of interest-sensitive assets to interest-sensitive liabilities 2479.9% 103.4% Cumulative ratio of interest-sensitive assets to interest-sensitive liabilities 92.3% 101.3% 103.4% - 37 - CAPITAL RESOURCES. The Federal Reserve Board (the "FRB") has adopted risk-based capital standards which require bank holding companies to maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%. Of the required capital, 4.0% must be tier 1 capital. Tier 1 capital is primarily common stockholders' equity and certain categories of perpetual preferred stock. As part of the Burritt transaction, Derby paid the FDIC a premium of $6.2 million. Of the premium paid, $5.0 million was recorded as a core deposit intangible. Through March 31, 1994, this amount was reduced to $4.1 million through amortization expense. This amount, in addition to approximately $158,000 of other intangible assets resulting from the transaction, are required to be deducted from the Company's and the Bank's capital prior to determining regulatory capital requirements. After giving effect to the transaction, the Company had a ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 10.2% and a ratio of tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 9.2% at March 31, 1994. The Board has supplemented the risk-based capital requirements with a required minimum leverage ratio of 3% of tier 1 capital to total assets. The Board indicated that all but the most highly-rated holding companies, however, should maintain a leverage ratio of 4% to 5% of tier 1 capital to total assets. At March 31, 1994, the Company had a ratio of tier 1 capital to total assets of 5.1%. Derby Savings Bank is also required by the FDIC to meet risk-based ratios the same as those adopted by the FRB for the Company. At March 31, 1994, Derby Savings' ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets was 10.3% and its ratio of tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets was 9.3%. The FDIC has also adopted a minimum leverage ratio of 3% of tier 1 capital to total assets. The FDIC has also indicated that all but the most highly rated banks should maintain a leverage ratio of 4% to 5% of tier 1 capital to total assets. Derby Savings' ratio of tier 1 capital to total assets at March 31, 1994 was 5.2%. Derby entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the "Memorandum") with the FDIC in April 1992, which required Derby to maintain a minimum tier 1 capital to total asset ratio of 5.5%. In connection with the Burritt transaction, the FDIC modified the terms of the Memorandum to require that Derby have tier 1 capital to total assets ratio in excess of 5% by December 31, 1993, which the Bank has exceeded, and at or above 5.75% by December 31, 1994. Derby expects to achieve the December 31, 1994 capital target through maintaining asset size at current levels and earnings retention. Under the prompt corrective action regulation recently adopted by the FDIC, which became effective on December 19, 1992, a savings bank will be considered: (i) "well capitalized" if the savings bank has a risk based capital ratio of 10% or greater, a tier one or core capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 6% or greater, and a leverage ratio to adjusted total assets of 5% or greater (provided the savings bank is not subject to an order, written agreement, capital directive or prompt corrective action to meet and maintain a specified capital level for any capital measure); (ii)"adequately capitalized" if the institution has a risk-based capital ratio of 8% or greater, a tier 1 or core capital to risk weighted assets ratio of 4% or greater, and a leverage ratio to adjusted total assets of 4% or greater (3% or greater if the institution is rated composite 1 in its most recent report of examination); (iii) "undercapitalized" if the institution has a risk based capital ratio that is less than 8%, a tier 1 or core capital to risk weighted assets ratio that is less than 4% (3% if the institution is rated composite 1 in its most recent report of examination) and a leverage ratio to adjusted total assets that is less that 3%; (iv)"significantly undercapitalized" if the institution has a risk-based capital ratio that is less than 6%, a tier one or core capital to risk weighted assets ratio that is less than 3%, and a leverage ratio to adjusted total assets ratio that is less than 3%; and (v) "critically undercapitalized" if the institution has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is less than 2%. The regulation also permits the FDIC to determine that a savings bank should be placed in a lower category based on other information such as a savings institution's examination report, after written notice. Based on its capital ratios as of March 31, 1994, the Bank believes it is "adequately capitalized" for purposes of this regulation. - 38 - PART II.
