                          ---------------------------


Statements contained in this presentation that are not historical facts,
constitute forward-looking statements (within the meaning of Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), which involve significant risks
and uncertainties. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be
covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained
in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and is including this
statement for purposes of invoking these safe harbor provisions. These
forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe
future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company, are generally
identifiable by use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate,"
"estimate," "project," "plan," or similar expressions. The Company's ability to
predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently
uncertain and actual results may differ from those predicted. The Company
undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements in the
future.

Factors which could have a material adverse effect on operations and could
affect management's outlook or future prospects of the Company and its
subsidiaries include, but are not limited to, higher than expected overhead,
infrastructure and compliance costs, unanticipated changes in interest rates or
further flattening of the yield curve, less than anticipated balance sheet
growth, demand for loan products, unanticipated changes in secondary mortgage
market conditions, deposit flows, competition, adverse federal or state
legislative or regulatory developments, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S.
Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and Federal Reserve Board,
deteriorating economic conditions which could result in increased delinquencies
in the Company's loan portfolio, the quality or composition of the Company's
loan or investment portfolios, demand for financial services and residential
real estate in the Company's market area, delays in our Springbank real estate
development project, difficulties or delays related to the pending acquisition
of EFC Bancorp (EFC), the possible short-term dilutive effect of the EFC
acquisition or other potential acquisitions, if any, and changes in accounting
principles, policies and guidelines. These risks and uncertainties should be
considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should
not be placed on such statements.
