PART I
Item 1. Business
General
Permanent Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, was
organized in December 1993 as a savings and loan holding company for Permanent
Federal Savings Bank ("Permanent Federal" or the "Bank") in connection with the
Bank's conversion from mutual to stock form which was completed on March 31,
1994 (the "Conversion"). Permanent Federal, the predecessor of which was
originally organized in 1885, is a federally chartered savings bank
headquartered in Evansville, Indiana. The Bank's deposits are insured up to the
maximum allowable amount by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the
"FDIC"). Through its main office and network of twelve branch offices, the
Company serves Vanderburgh, Gibson, Warrick, Posey and Dubois Counties, Indiana.
At March 31, 1999, the Company had total assets of $492.3 million, deposits of
$345.3 million, and total stockholders' equity of $40.9 million (8.31% of total
assets).
Permanent Federal has been, and intends to continue to be, a
community-oriented financial institution offering a variety of financial
services to meet the needs of the communities it serves. The Bank attracts
deposits from the general public and uses these deposits, together with
borrowings and other funds, primarily to originate one- to four-family
residential mortgage loans as well as loans secured by multi-family and
commercial real estate, automobile and other consumer loans. To a lesser extent,
the Bank also originates a limited number of construction and commercial
business loans. The Bank also invests in mortgage-backed and other securities.
See "Lending Activities" and "Investment Activities."
Through its service corporation, Perma Service Corp., the Bank also
offers various types of insurance products and provides brokerage services. See
"Service Corporation Activities."
The executive office of the Company is located at 101 Southeast Third
Street, Evansville, Indiana 47708. Its telephone number at that address is (812)
428-6800.
Lending Activities
General. Historically, the Bank originated fixed-rate, one- to
four-family mortgage loans. In the early 1980s, however, the Bank began to also
originate, subject to market conditions, adjustable-rate mortgage ("ARM") loans
for retention in its portfolio. At March 31, 1999, 74.5% of the Bank's loan
portfolio was fixed-rate and 25.5% was adjustable-rate. The Bank's
adjustable-rate loan portfolio as a percentage of the total loan portfolio has
decreased from 42.9% at March 31, 1992 to 25.5% at March 31, 1999 as consumer
demand for fixed-rate loans increased. See also "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Asset/Liability
Management" in the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 1999, attached hereto as Exhibit 13 (the "Annual Report").
2
The Bank focuses its lending activities on the origination of loans
secured by first mortgages on owner-occupied, one-to four-family residences as
well as multi-family and commercial real estate loans, automobile and other
consumer loans. To a lesser extent, the Bank also originates a limited number of
construction and commercial business loans. At March 31, 1999, the Bank's total
loan portfolio, including commercial paper, totaled $324.1 million, of which
$171.3 million, or 52.8%, were one- to four-family mortgage loans. At the same
date, consumer loans (including indirect and direct automobile loans) totaled
$86.1 million, or 26.6%, multi-family and commercial real estate loans totaled
$31.9 million, or 9.9%, construction loans totaled $8.2 million, or 2.5%, and
there was $9.3 million of commercial paper, representing 2.9% of the loan
portfolio. Other business loans totaled $17.3 million or 5.3% of the loan
portfolio.
The Bank also invests in mortgage-backed securities. At March 31, 1999,
mortgage-backed securities, net, totaled $54.8 million, or 11.1% of total
assets. See "Investment Activities -- Mortgage-Backed Securities."
Loan applications are initially underwritten and approved at various
levels of authority, depending on the type and amount of the loan, as
established by the Board of Directors. Residential loans in excess of $350,000,
commercial real estate loans in excess of $1,000,000 and commercial business
loans in excess of $1,000,000 require the approval of the Board of Directors or
the Senior Loan Committee consisting of three Bank officers and three
non-employee directors. All unsecured loans in excess of $250,000 are reviewed
by this committee.
Prior to the enactment of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery,
and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA"), the aggregate amount of loans that the
Bank was permitted to make under applicable federal regulations to any one
borrower, including related entities, or the aggregate amount that the Bank
could have invested in any one real estate project, was, with certain
exceptions, limited to the lesser of 10% of the Bank's deposits or 100% of its
regulatory capital. Effective August 9, 1989, the Bank's loans-to-one-borrower
limit was reduced in accordance with FIRREA, generally to the greater of 15% of
unimpaired capital and surplus or $500,000. See "Regulation Federal Regulation
of Savings Associations." At March 31, 1999, the maximum amount which the Bank
could have lent to any one borrower and the borrower's related entities was
approximately $4.9 million. At March 31, 1999, the Bank had no loans with
aggregate outstanding balances in excess of this amount.
Management reserves the right to change its emphasis on the amount, or
type of lending in which it engages to adjust to market or other factors.

At March 31, 1999, the total amount of loans due after March 31, 1999
which had fixed interest rates was $241.4 million, while the total amount of
loans due after such date which had floating or adjustable interest rates was
$82.7 million.
One- to Four-Family Residential Mortgage Lending. The Bank's primary
lending activity consists of the origination of one- to four-family residential
mortgage loans secured primarily by property located in the Bank's primary
market area. At March 31, 1999, the Bank had $171.2 million, or 52.8% of its
loan portfolio invested in these loans.
The Bank presently offers fixed-rate conventional mortgage loans,
Federal Housing Administration ("FHA"), Veterans Administration ("VA") loans,
and ARM loans. During fiscal 1995, the Bank introduced a 10-year adjustable-rate
loan which features an initial 10-year fixed-rate that converts to a one-year
adjustable-rate loan upon expiration of the initial fixed-rate period. The
Bank's origination of fixed-rate mortgage loans as compared to ARM loans is
determined on an on-going basis and is based on changes in market interest rates
and consumer preference. Many borrowers have selected shorter-term 15-year
fixed-rate mortgages or ten-year adjustable rate loans recently. Interest rates
charged on fixed-rate loans are competitively priced according to local market
conditions. The Bank's current policy is to sell all newly originated fixed-rate
loans with terms of more than 20 years, as well as ARM loans converted to a
fixed rate with a remaining term to maturity in excess of 20 years, and all FHA
and VA loans. See "- Originations, Purchases, Sales and Servicing of Loans and
Mortgage-Backed Securities."
The Bank currently makes adjustable-rate, one- to four-family
residential mortgage loans in amounts of up to 100% of the appraised value or
selling price of the security property, whichever is less. For loans with
loan-to-value ratios of greater than 80%, the Bank typically requires private
mortgage insurance to reduce the Bank's exposure to 75% of the appraised value
or selling price of the security property. Adjustable-rate loans generally have
interest rate adjustment limitations consisting of 2% annual adjustments and 6%
lifetime adjustments, and are generally indexed to the weekly average yield of
U. S. Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year.
The retention of ARM loans in the Bank's loan portfolio helps the Bank
to manage its exposure to changes in the interest rates. There are, however,
unquantifiable credit risks relating to such loans resulting from the potential
of increased costs due to changed rates to be paid by the customer. It is
possible that during periods of rising interest rates, the risk of default on
ARM loans may increase as a result of repricing and the increased costs to the
borrower. Furthermore, the ARM loans originated by the Bank generally provide,
as a marketing incentive, for initial rates of interest below the rates which
would apply were the adjustment index used for pricing initially
("discounting"). These loans are subject to increased risk of default or
delinquency due to this discounting. In addition, although ARM loans allow the
Bank to increase the sensitivity of its asset base to changes in interest rates,
the extent of this interest rate sensitivity is limited by the periodic and
lifetime interest rate adjustment limits, and by the ability of borrowers to
refinance their loans if they perceive that the interest rate they are paying is
too high. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that yields on ARM loans will
be sufficient to offset increases in the Bank's cost of funds.
In underwriting residential real estate loans, the Bank evaluates both
the borrower's ability to make monthly payments, employment history, credit
history and the value of the property securing
7
the loan. Potential borrowers are qualified for fixed-rate loans based upon the
initial or stated rate of the loan. Borrowers on one year adjustable-rate loans
are currently qualified at an 8% rate or the fully-indexed rate after one year,
whichever is higher. Borrowers on other adjustable-rate loans are qualified at
the note rate.
An appraisal of the security property from Board-approved independent
fee appraisers is obtained prior to mortgage loan approvals. In connection with
origination of residential real estate loans, the Bank currently requires that
the borrower obtain title insurance, and fire, flood (if applicable) and
casualty insurance to protect the Bank's interest.
The Bank's residential mortgage loans customarily include due-on-sale
clauses giving the Bank the right to declare the loan immediately due and
payable in the event, among other things, the borrower sells or otherwise
disposes of the property subject to the mortgage and the loan is not repaid. The
Bank on occasion has enforced due-on-sale clauses in its mortgage contracts.
From 1991 to 1993, Permanent Federal increased its investment in
mortgage-backed securities, while in fiscal 1994 and 1995, the amount of such
securities remained relatively constant and again increased during fiscal 1996
and 1997. Mortgage-backed securities decreased $19.7 million in 1998, and $26.7
million in fiscal 1999. Although such securities are generally held for
investment, they can serve as collateral for borrowings. For information
regarding the carrying and market values of Permanent Federal's mortgage-backed
securities portfolio, see Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements in the Annual Report. See also "Investment Activities -
Mortgage-Backed Securities."
Consumer Lending. The Bank considers consumer lending an integral
component of its lending operations and has during the last fiscal year expanded
its consumer loan portfolio particularly in the automobile and home lending
areas. Consumer loans generally have shorter terms to maturity (thus reducing
Permanent Federal's exposure to changes in interest rates) and historically have
carried higher rates of interest than do one- to four-family residential
mortgage loans. In addition, management believes that the offering of consumer
loan products helps to expand and create stronger ties to its existing customer
base by increasing the number of customer relationships and providing
cross-marketing opportunities. At March 31, 1999, the Bank's consumer loan
portfolio totaled $86.1 million, or 26.6% of its loan portfolio. The chief
component of such loans consists of indirect and direct automobile paper,
accounting for $56.8 million, or 65.9%, of the consumer loan portfolio at March
31, 1999. Under applicable federal law, the Bank is authorized to invest up to
35% of its assets in consumer loans.
Permanent Federal offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including
automobile, boat, home equity, home improvement, mobile home loans, loans
secured by savings deposits and other consumer collateral. The Bank also offers
a limited amount of unsecured loans. The Bank generally originates consumer
loans in its market area. Although it has not done so in recent years, the Bank
may also purchase consumer loans, generally within its market area. Consumer
loan terms vary according to the type of collateral and length of contract. The
Bank's consumer loans generally have fixed rates of interest.
The Bank is actively engaged in indirect dealer financing of
automobiles. Such indirect dealer loans are originated through automobile
dealers located in, or in counties contiguous to, the
8
Bank's market area and underwritten by the Bank's lending staff in accordance
with the Bank's general standards for underwriting consumer loans. These loans
are originated at fixed interest rates and are typically for terms of up to five
years. At March 31, 1999, indirect dealer loans totaled $46.1 million, or 53.6%,
of the Bank's consumer loan portfolio.
At March 31, 1999, $23.4 million of the Bank's consumer loans consisted
of home equity loans, including home equity lines of credit. The home equity
loans are typically collateralized by second mortgages on owner-occupied,
single-family mortgage loans.
The Bank has also purchased loans secured by mobile homes. Such loans
were originated through a subsidiary of the Bank in association with two other
savings institutions. The subsidiary created pools of mobile home loans it
originated, and Permanent Federal and the other participating lenders each
purchased a one-third interest in the pools. The Bank's mobile home loan
portfolio as of March 31, 1999 was $724,000, or .22% of the Bank's loan
portfolio. Mobile home loans are typically made at higher yields and for a
shorter maturity than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. The Bank's
mobile home loans were typically made for terms of up to 15 years and all were
one-year ARMs. At March 31, 1999, $54,000, or 7.5%, of the Bank's mobile home
loan portfolio was non-performing.
The underwriting standards employed by the Bank for consumer loans
include a determination of the applicant's payment history on other debts and an
assessment of the ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the
proposed loan. In addition, the stability of the applicant's monthly income from
primary employment is considered during the underwriting process. Although
creditworthiness of the applicant is a primary consideration, the underwriting
process also includes a comparison of the value of the security, if any, in
relation to the proposed loan amount.
Consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than do residential
mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans which are unsecured,
such as checking account overdraft privilege loans, or are secured by rapidly
depreciable assets, such as automobiles, mobile homes and recreational vehicles.
In such cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not
provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a
result of the greater likelihood of damage, loss or depreciation. In addition,
consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower's continuing financial
stability and thus are more likely to be affected by adverse personal
circumstances. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws,
including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be
recovered on such loans.
Multi-Family and Commercial Real Estate Lending. An increasing part of
the Bank's portfolio as a percentage of the total, the Bank has originated
multi-family and commercial real estate loans in its lending area, and has
purchased whole loan and participation interests in loans from other financial
institutions in Indiana, and to a lesser extent, in Kentucky and Tennessee. At
March 31, 1999, the Bank had multi-family and commercial real estate loans
totaling $31.9 million, representing 9.8% of its loan portfolio.
The majority of the Bank's multi-family and commercial real estate
loans are secured by apartment buildings, as well as other types of property,
including nursing homes, office buildings, hotels and shopping centers.

========== ========= ============
At March 31, 1999, the Bank had a total of 13 multi-family and
commercial real estate loans with outstanding principal balances in excess of
$1.0 million. Each of these loans was performing in accordance with its terms at
March 31, 1999.
Multi-family and commercial real estate loans originated by the Bank
generally have terms ranging from 5 to 20 years and up to 30 year amortization
schedules. Rates on such loans generally either (i) adjust (subject, in some
cases, to specified interest rate caps) at one, three or five year intervals to
specified spreads over an index, (ii) float (subject, in some cases, to
specified interest rate caps) with changes in a specified prime rate or (iii)
carry fixed rates. Under the Bank's current loan policy, multi-family and
commercial real estate loans (other than loans to facilitate) are written in
amounts of up to 80% of the appraised value of the properties.
Appraisals on properties securing multi-family and commercial real
estate property loans originated by the Bank are performed by an independent
appraiser approved by the Bank prior to the time the loan is made. All
appraisals on multi-family and commercial real estate loans are reviewed by the
Bank's management. In addition, the Bank's underwriting procedures generally
require verification of the borrower's credit history, income and financial
statements, banking relationships and income projections for the property.
Historically, personal guarantees were not generally obtained for the Bank's
multi-family and commercial real estate loans. While the Bank continues to
monitor multi-family and commercial real estate loans on a regular basis after
origination, updated appraisals are not normally obtained after closing unless
the Bank believes that there are questions regarding the progress of the loan or
the value of the collateral.
Multi-family and commercial real estate loans generally present a
higher level of credit risk than loans secured by one- to four-family
residences. This greater risk is due to several factors, including the
concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the
effect of general economic conditions on income-producing properties and the
increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of loans.
Furthermore, the repayment of loans secured by multi-family and commercial real
estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the related real
estate project. If the cash flow from the project is reduced (for example, if
leases are not
10
obtained or renewed, or a bankruptcy court modifies a lease term, or a major
tenant is unable to fulfill its lease obligations), the borrower's ability to
repay the loan may be impaired.
Construction or Development Lending. The Bank makes a limited number of
construction loans to individuals for the construction of their residences. The
Bank generally requires that the customer have a general contractor. The Bank
also makes loans to builders for presold and speculative single-family
construction purposes and a limited number of multi-family and commercial
construction loans. At March 31, 1999, the Bank's construction loan portfolio
totaled $8.2 million (including a $155,000 loan on a low-income housing
project), or 2.5% of its total loan portfolio. As of that date, all of these
loans were secured by property located within the Bank's market area.
Construction loan terms to individuals are generally made under the ARM
program, although at a rate higher than that for a permanent ARM loan, with
provisions for converting to a fixed-rate loan upon completion of the
construction. Fixed-rate loans for construction purposes are limited to a
maximum term of 15 years. During the construction phase, the borrower pays
interest only. Residential construction loans are generally underwritten
pursuant to the same guidelines used for originating permanent residential loans
except that the record of the builder is also considered.
Construction loans to builders are written for a term of 18 months at a
fixed rate of interest. Construction loans are obtained primarily through
continued business from builders who have previously borrowed from the Bank, as
well as referrals from existing customers. The application process includes a
submission of accurate plans, specifications and costs of the project to be
constructed. These items are also used as a basis for determining the appraised
value of the subject property. Loans are based on the lesser of the current
appraised value or the cost of construction (land plus building). From time to
time, the Bank has lent funds for the development and subdivision of lots,
although the Bank had no such loans in its portfolio at March 31, 1999.
Commercial Business Lending. Federally chartered savings institutions,
such as Permanent Federal, are authorized to make secured or unsecured loans and
issue letters of credit for commercial, corporate, business and agricultural
purposes and to engage in commercial leasing activities, up to a maximum of 10%
of total assets.
A small but increasing part of the Bank's loan portfolio, at March 31,
1999, Permanent Federal had $17.3 million in commercial business loans
outstanding (representing 5.3% of the Bank's total loan portfolio). At March 31,
1999, Permanent Federal had $136,000 of standby letters of credit outstanding.
Originations, Purchases, Sales and Servicing of Loans and Mortgage-Backed
Securities
The Bank originates real estate loans through marketing efforts, the
Bank's customer base, walk-in customers and referrals from realtors and
builders. The Bank originates both adjustable-rate and fixed-rate loans. Its
ability to originate loans is dependent upon the relative demand for fixed-rate
or ARM loans in the origination market, which is affected by the term structure
(short-term compared to long-term) of interest rates, as well as the current and
expected future level of interest rates and competition.
11
During fiscal 1999, the Bank originated a total of $168.8 million in
loans. Of the loans originated during the year, $55.9 million were one- to
four-family real estate loans, $76.9 million were consumer loans, $27.7 million
were commercial loans, and $3.9 million were construction loans.
The Bank's current policy is to sell all fixed-rate conventional loans
that are originated or converted with terms of more than 15 years. Likewise, all
FHA and VA loans are sold, irrespective of term. In contrast, all ARM loans,
regardless of the term, are retained and other loans (generally non-conforming
loans) are also retained in the Bank's portfolio. Servicing is retained on all
loan sales, except for FHA and VA mortgage loans. During fiscal 1997, 1998 and
1999, the Bank sold $1.0 million, $5.1 million and $12.7 million of loans,
respectively.
With respect to the loans that the Bank sells, it is the policy of the
Bank to sell current production of such loans as quickly as the loans are
originated, unless it is determined to temporarily hold these loans until more
favorable rates are available. However, it is the Bank's policy that in no event
shall a loan continue to be held for sale if the price to be received on that
loan drops below net 98 (98 cents on the dollar). In addition, the Bank's policy
provides that any loan held for sale which bears a rate too high to sell in the
secondary market without having to accept a discounted premium will continue to
be held until such time as market conditions allow the loan to be sold without a
premium discount.
Government loans are committed for sale with a private investor the
same day an application is received. The requirements for delivery are on a
"best effort" basis, providing that if for any reason the loan does not close,
there is no financial exposure to the Bank.
The Board of Directors receives a monthly report identifying the number
and dollar amount of mortgage loans not sold which present any potential
interest rate risk exposure to the Bank. The report further details the current
secondary market buy rates and the estimated gain or loss at such rates. The
Bank attempts to limit any interest rate risk exposure created by commitments to
make or sell loans by limiting the number of days between the commitment and
closing, charging fees for commitments and managing the amount of its uncovered
commitments outstanding at any one time.
The Bank occasionally purchases loans and loan participations for one-
to four-family, multi-family and commercial real estate loans. Such loans had a
carrying value of approximately $7.1 million, $5.5 million, and $14.3 million at
March 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively.
During the past three fiscal years, the Bank has purchased
mortgage-backed securities in order to supplement loan demand. In fiscal 1996,
the Bank purchased $30.2 million of mortgage-backed securities and purchased
$34.5 million and $18.5 million of such securities in fiscal 1997 and 1998,
respectively. In fiscal 1999, the Bank purchased $20.9 million of mortgage
backed securities. The mortgage-backed securities purchased generally had fixed
rates and maturities of up to 15 years and adjustable rates up to 30 years. See
"Investment Activities."
The Bank had commitments to make loans, including participations, of
approximately $1.6 million, $4.9 million and $23.4 million (excluding
undisbursed portions of loans in process) at March 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999,
respectively. In addition, the Bank had approximately $104,000,
12
$100,000 and $106,000 in commitments to sell loans at March 31, 1997, 1998 and
1999, respectively.
The amount of loans serviced by the Bank for others totaled $34.3
million, $32.5 million and $36.3 million at March 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999,
respectively.
The Bank generally earns servicing fees of 25 basis points for
servicing loans for others. For the years ended March 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999
such fees amounted to approximately $101,000, $84,000 and $82,000, respectively.

Asset Quality
Loan Monitoring Procedures. When a borrower fails to make a required
payment on a loan, the Bank attempts to cause the delinquency to be cured by
contacting the borrower. In the case of loans secured by real estate, a late
notice is sent 10 to 15 days after the scheduled payment date, depending on the
type of loan, and a second notice is sent after 16 days. In the case of consumer
loans, a late notice is sent five days after the scheduled payment date and a
second notice is sent after ten days. If the delinquency is not cured by this
time, contact with the borrower is made by phone. Additional written and verbal
contacts or meetings with the borrower are made to the extent necessary. With
respect to mortgage loans, if the delinquency is not cured by the 90th day, a
30-day default letter is sent and, once that period lapses, appropriate action
to foreclose on the property is initiated. Interest income on loans at this
point is reduced by the full amount of accrued and uncollected interest. If
foreclosed, the property is sold at a sheriff's sale and typically is purchased
by the Bank. Delinquent consumer loans are handled in a similar manner. If these
efforts fail to bring the loan current, appropriate action may be taken to
collect any loan payment that remains delinquent. The Bank's procedures for
repossession and sale of consumer collateral are subject to various requirements
under Indiana consumer protection laws.
Real estate acquired by Permanent Federal as a result of foreclosure or
by deed in lieu of foreclosure is classified as real estate owned until it is
sold. When property is acquired, it is recorded at the lower of cost or
estimated fair value at the date of acquisition, and any write-down resulting
therefrom is charged against the allowance for loan losses. Upon acquisition,
all costs incurred in maintaining the property are expensed. However, costs
relating to the development and improvement of the property are capitalized to
the extent of net realizable value.
Prior to the consummation of commercial real estate loans, financial
information on the project and its principals are reviewed, and appraisals are
obtained and reviewed. Subsequent balance sheets and operating statements are
obtained and reviewed on at least an annual basis. On loans that indicate
potential weaknesses, more frequent reviews are made.
A committee of senior officers and outside directors of the Bank
periodically reviews large loans (generally, those unsecured loans in excess of
$250,000, residential real estate loans in excess of $350,000 and commercial
credits in excess of $1,000,000). The committee examines the borrower's
financial statements and position, prior loan performance and any industry or
economic trends which would potentially affect the borrower's operations or
collateral values.
Appraisals are obtained on properties that are transferred to real
estate owned. The Bank performs periodic fair value computations using
methodology consistent with that of an appraiser. Appraisals are assigned only
to qualified appraisers located within or familiar with the location of the
subject property. Net realizable value calculations are performed on all
properties in either real estate owned or loans classified as impaired. The
result of these calculations may indicate a writedown of the asset or specific
reserve allowance.
Classified Assets. Federal regulations provide for the classification
of loans and other assets, such as debt and equity securities considered by the
OTS to be of lesser quality, as "substandard," "doubtful" or "loss." An asset is
considered "substandard" if it is inadequately protected by the
15
current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral
pledged, if any. "Substandard" assets include those characterized by the
"distinct possibility" that the insured institution will sustain "some loss" if
the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as "doubtful" have all of
the weaknesses inherent in those classified "substandard," with the added
characteristic that the weaknesses present make "collection or liquidation in
full," on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, "highly
questionable and improbable." Assets classified as "loss" are those considered
"uncollectible" and of such little value that their continuance as assets
without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted. Assets
which do not currently expose the insured institution to sufficient risk to
warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories but possess
weaknesses are required to be designated "special mention" by management.
When an insured institution classifies problem assets as either
substandard or doubtful, it may establish general allowances for loan losses in
an amount deemed prudent by management. General allowances represent loss
allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated
with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been
allocated to particular problem assets. When an insured institution classifies
problem assets as "loss," it is required either to establish a specific
allowance for losses equal to 100% of that portion of the asset so classified or
to charge-off such amount. An institution's determination as to the
classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is
subject to review by the regulatory authorities, who may order the establishment
of additional general or specific loss allowances. Additionally, while the
Bank's asset quality is generally strong and its reserves adequate, changes in
the local or national economy could adversely affect asset quality or call for
the establishment of additional reserves.
In connection with the filing of its periodic reports with the OTS and
in accordance with its classification of assets policy, the Bank regularly
reviews problem loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure in its
portfolio to determine whether such assets require classification in accordance
with applicable regulations. Classified assets of the Bank at March 31, 1999,

The distribution of the allowance for loan losses is consistent with
the Bank's accounting policy. See also "Lending Activities - Multi-Family and
Commercial Real Estate Lending."
Additional information concerning the quality of the Company's assets
and allowance for loan losses is incorporated herein by reference to
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" contained in the Annual Report.
Investment Activities
General. Permanent Federal must maintain minimum levels of investments
that qualify as liquid assets under OTS regulations. Liquidity may increase or
decrease depending upon the availability of funds and comparative yields on
investments in relation to the return on loans. Historically, the Bank has
maintained liquid assets at levels above the minimum requirements imposed by the
OTS regulations and at levels believed adequate to meet the requirements of
normal operations, including repayments of maturing debt and potential deposit
outflows. Cash flow projections are regularly reviewed and updated to assure
that adequate liquidity is maintained. At March 31, 1999, the Bank's liquidity
ratio (liquid assets as a percentage of net withdrawable savings deposits and
current borrowings) was 40.5%. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources"
in the Annual Report and "Regulation - Liquidity."
Federally chartered savings institutions have the authority to invest
in various types of liquid assets, including United States Treasury obligations,
securities of various federal agencies, certain certificates of deposit of
insured banks and savings institutions, certain bankers' acceptances, repurchase
agreements and federal funds. Subject to various restrictions, federally
chartered savings institutions may also invest their assets in commercial paper,
investment grade corporate debt securities and mutual funds whose assets conform
to the investments that a federally chartered savings institution is otherwise
authorized to make directly.
Generally, the investment policy of the Bank is to invest funds among
various categories of investments and maturities based upon the Bank's liquidity
needs, asset/liability management policies, investment quality and marketability
and performance objectives.
Securities. At March 31, 1999, Permanent Federal's securities
(including mortgage-backed securities) totaled $124.2 million, or 14.1% of total
assets. As of such date, the Bank also had a $5.5 million investment in FHLB
stock, satisfying its requirement for membership in the FHLB of Indianapolis.
OTS and accounting guidelines regarding investment portfolio accounting
require institutions to categorize all securities and certain other assets as
"held to maturity", "available for sale" or "trading." The portion of the
investment portfolio which is held with the intent to hold to maturity is
accounted for on an amortized cost basis. Assets which are categorized as
available for sale are carried at estimated fair value. At March 31, 1999, the
Company had $117.3 million in securities "available for sale," $6.9 million of
securities which are held to maturity, and no securities identified as
"trading." The securities available for sale at March 31, 1999 had net
unrealized gains of $9,869. At March 31, 1998, the Bank had $168.3 million in
securities available for sale, $18.9 of securities classified as held to
maturity and no securities identified as "trading." The securities available for
sale at March 31, 1998 had net unrealized gains of $372,373.
18

At March 31, 1999 the Bank's securities portfolio did not contain
securities of any issuer with an aggregate book value in excess of 10% of the
Bank's retained earnings, excluding securities issued by the United States
Government or its agencies.
The Bank's securities portfolio is managed in accordance with a written
investment policy adopted by the Board of Directors. Investments may be made by
authorized Bank officers within specified limits. See also Note 2 of the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
Mortgage-Backed Securities. The Bank has a portfolio of mortgage-backed
securities and has utilized such investments to complement its mortgage lending
activities. See "Lending Activities -One-to Four-Family Residential Mortgage
Lending." At March 31, 1999, the Bank's mortgage-backed securities totaled $54.8
million. At such date, the mortgage-backed securities portfolio consisted
entirely of securities backed by loans insured or guaranteed by the Government
National Mortgage Association ("GNMA"), the Federal National Mortgage
Association ("FNMA")
19
or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC"). At March 31, 1999, the
Bank's portfolio consisted of $54.8 million available for sale. At such date,
the portfolio had a weighted average interest rate of 6.33%.
For information regarding the carrying and market values of Permanent
Federal's mortgage-backed securities portfolio, see Note 2 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
Under the OTS risk-based capital requirements, GNMA mortgage-backed
securities have a zero percent risk weighting and FNMA, FHLMC and AA-rated
mortgage-backed securities have a 20% risk weighting, in contrast to the 50%
risk weighting carried by one- to four-family performing residential mortgage
loans.
Sources of Funds
General. The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization
and repayment of loan principal and interest (including mortgage-backed
securities), maturities of securities, mortgage-backed securities and short-term
investments, FHLB advances and funds provided from operations.
Borrowings are used to compensate for seasonal reductions in deposits
or deposit inflows at less than projected levels, to purchase investments
(including mortgage-backed securities) and to support lending activities. At
March 31, 1999, the Bank's borrowings consisted of FHLB advances totaling $96.5
million. See Notes 6, 7 and 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
in the Annual Report.
Deposits. Permanent Federal offers a variety of deposit accounts having
a wide range of interest rates and terms. The Bank's deposits consist of
passbook accounts, NOW, money market and other checking accounts and certificate
accounts. The Bank relies primarily on advertising, competitive pricing policies
and customer service to attract and retain these deposits. Permanent Federal
solicits deposits from its market area only and does not solicit or accept
brokered deposits.
The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic
conditions, changes in money market and prevailing interest rates and
competition. The variety of deposit accounts offered by the Bank has allowed it
to be competitive in obtaining funds and to respond with flexibility to changes
in consumer demand. The Bank has become more susceptible to short-term
fluctuations in deposit flows as customers have become more interest rate
conscious. The Bank manages the pricing of its deposits in keeping with its
asset/liability management and profitability objectives. The ability of the Bank
to attract and maintain certificates of deposit, and the rates paid on these
deposits, has been and will continue to be significantly affected by market
conditions. The Bank believes that the recent trends in deposit migration
represents an industry phenomenon and are not unique to the Bank. The Bank will
continue to remain rate competitive on maturing deposits and to utilize FHLB
advances as a funding alternative when necessary. During fiscal years 1997, 1998
and 1999, the Bank experienced a net inflow as a result of branch acquisitions.
The FHLB has recently introduced several new advance programs that offer
variable rates or amortizing principal amounts specifically tied to funding one-
to four-family residential loans. These advances have proven to be a less costly
funding source after consideration of the cost of deposit insurance associated
with traditional deposits.

Borrowings. Although deposits are the Bank's primary source of funds,
the Bank's policy has been to utilize borrowings when they are a less costly
source of funds or can be invested at a positive rate of return.
Permanent Federal may obtain advances from the FHLB of Indianapolis
upon the security of its FHLB capital stock and certain of its mortgage loans
and mortgage-backed securities. Such advances may be made pursuant to several
different credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of
maturities. At March 31, 1999 the Bank's FHLB advances totaled $96.5 million.

Service Corporation Activities
Federal associations generally may invest up to 2% of their assets in
service corporations, plus an additional 1% of assets if for community purposes.
In addition, federal associations may invest up to 50% of their regulatory
capital in conforming loans to service corporations in which they own more than
10% of the capital stock. In addition to investments in service corporations,
federal associations are permitted to invest an unlimited amount in operating
subsidiaries engaged solely in activities which a federal association may engage
in directly.
Permanent Federal has one first-tier service corporation, Perma Service
Corp. ("Perma Service"), located in Evansville, Indiana. Perma Service has
approximately a 12.5% interest, along with seven other financial institutions,
in Family Financial Life Insurance Company ("FFLIC"), which underwrites various
types of life and disability insurance and annuity programs. FFLIC reinsures a
majority of the risk it underwrites with other insurers. The Bank uses the
equity method to account for its investment and in fiscal 1990, recognized
$89,400 in income from FFLIC.
Perma Service also has one wholly owned subsidiary, Permanent Insurance
Agency Inc. ("PIAI"), which offers, on an agency basis, casualty, life,
accident, health, mortgage, disability, and consumer credit insurance. PIAI had
net income of $10,300 for the year ended March 31, 1999.
Through Perma Service, the Bank also provides brokerage services, on an
agency basis, through INVESTTM.
Competition
Permanent Federal faces strong competition, both in originating real
estate and other loans and in attracting deposits. Competition in originating
real estate loans comes primarily from commercial banks, other thrifts and
mortgage companies. The Bank competes for loans principally on the basis of the
interest rates and loan fees it charges, the types of loans it originates and
the quality of services it provides to borrowers.
The Bank attracts most of its deposits from Vanderburgh, Gibson,
Warrick, Posey and Dubois Counties. Competition for those deposits is
principally from commercial banks, other thrifts, credit unions and other
financial intermediaries doing business in the same community. The ability of
the Bank to attract and retain deposits depends on its ability to provide an
investment opportunity that satisfies the requirements of investors as to rate
of return, liquidity, risk and other factors. The Bank competes for these
deposits by offering a variety of deposit accounts at competitive rates and
convenient business hours.
Regulation
General. Permanent Federal is a federally chartered savings bank, the
deposits of which are federally insured and backed by the full faith and credit
of the United States Government. Accordingly, the Bank is subject to broad
federal regulation and oversight extending to all its operations. The Bank is a
member of the FHLB of Indianapolis and is subject to certain limited regulation
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve
Board"). As the savings and loan holding company of the Bank, the Holding
Company also is subject to federal regulation and oversight. The purpose of the
regulation of the Holding Company and other
24
holding companies is to protect subsidiary savings associations. The Bank is a
member of the Savings Association Insurance Fund (the "SAIF") and the deposits
of the Bank are insured by the FDIC. As a result, the FDIC has certain
regulatory and examination authority over the Bank.
Certain of these regulatory requirements and restrictions are discussed
below or elsewhere in this document.
Federal Regulation of Savings Associations. The OTS has extensive
authority over the operations of savings associations. As part of this
authority, the Bank is required to file periodic reports with the OTS and is
subject to periodic examinations by the OTS and the FDIC. The last regular OTS
and FDIC examinations of Permanent Federal, for which reports have been issued,
were as of December 1997 and April 1991, respectively. When these examinations
are conducted by the OTS and the FDIC, the examiners may require the Bank to
provide for higher general or specific loan loss reserves. Financial
institutions in various regions of the United States have been called upon by
examiners to write down assets and to establish increased levels of reserves,
primarily as a result of perceived weaknesses in real estate values and a more
restrictive regulatory climate.
All savings associations are subject to a semi-annual assessment, based
upon the savings association's total assets, to fund the operations of the OTS.
Permanent Federal's OTS assessment for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999 was
$100,000.
The OTS also has extensive enforcement authority over all savings
institutions and their holding companies, including the Bank and the Company.
This enforcement authority includes, among other things, the ability to assess
civil money penalties, to issue cease-and-desist or removal orders and to
initiate injunctive actions. In general, these enforcement actions may be
initiated for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound
practices. Other actions or inactions may provide the basis for enforcement
action, including misleading or untimely reports filed with the OTS. Except
under certain circumstances, public disclosure of final enforcement actions by
the OTS is required.
In addition, the investment, lending and branching authority of the
Bank is prescribed by federal laws and regulations, and it is prohibited from
engaging in any activities not permitted by such laws and regulations. For
instance, no savings institution may invest in non-investment grade corporate
debt securities. In addition, the permissible level of investment by federal
associations in loans secured by non-residential real property may not exceed
400% of total capital, except with approval of the OTS. Federal savings
associations are also generally authorized to branch nationwide. The Bank is in
compliance with the noted restrictions.
The Bank's general permissible lending limit for loans-to-one-borrower
is equal to 15% of unimpaired capital and surplus (except for loans fully
secured by certain readily marketable collateral, in which case this limit is
increased to 25% of unimpaired capital and surplus). At March 31, 1999, the
Bank's lending limit under this restriction was $4.9 million. At March 31, 1999,
the Bank had no loans in excess of this limit. The Bank is in compliance with
the loans-to-one-borrower limitation.
The OTS, as well as the other federal banking agencies, has adopted
guidelines establishing safety and soundness standards on matters such as loan
underwriting and documentation, asset quality, earnings standards, internal
controls and audit systems, interest rate risk exposure and
25
compensation and other employee benefits. Any institution which fails to comply
with these standards must submit a compliance plan. A failure to submit a plan
or to comply with an approved plan will subject the institution to further
enforcement action. The Bank has not been required to submit a compliance plan.
Insurance of Accounts and Regulation by the FDIC. The Bank is a member
of the SAIF, which is administered by the FDIC. Deposits are insured up to
applicable limits by the FDIC and such insurance is backed by the full faith and
credit of the United States Government. As insurer, the FDIC imposes deposit
insurance premiums and is authorized to conduct examinations of and to require
reporting by FDIC-insured institutions. It also may prohibit any FDIC-insured
institution from engaging in any activity the FDIC determines by regulation or
order to pose a serious risk to the SAIF or the BIF. The FDIC also has the
authority to initiate enforcement actions against savings associations, after
giving the OTS an opportunity to take such action, and may terminate the deposit
insurance if it determines that the institution has engaged or is engaging in
unsafe or unsound practices, or is in an unsafe or unsound condition.
The FDIC's deposit insurance premiums are assessed through a risk-based
system under which all insured depository institutions are placed into one of
nine categories and assessed insurance premiums based upon their level of
capital and supervisory evaluation. Under the system, institutions classified as
well capitalized (i.e., those with a core capital ratio of at least 5%, a ratio
of Tier 1 or core capital to risk-weighted assets ("Tier 1 risk-based capital")
of at least 6% and a risk- based capital ratio of at least 10%) and considered
healthy pay the lowest premium while institutions that are less than adequately
capitalized (i.e., those with core and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios of less
than 4% or a risk-based capital ratio of less than 8%) and considered of
substantial supervisory concern would pay the highest premium. Risk
classification of all insured institutions is made by the FDIC for each
semi-annual assessment period.
The FDIC is authorized to increase assessment rates, on a semiannual
basis, if it determines that the reserve ratio of the SAIF will be less than the
designated reserve ratio of 1.25% of SAIF insured deposits. In setting these
increased assessments, the FDIC must seek to restore the reserve ratio to that
designated reserve level, or such higher reserve ratio as established by the
FDIC. The FDIC may impose special assessments on SAIF members to repay amounts
borrowed from the United States Treasury or for any other reason deemed
necessary by the FDIC.
Legislative Action
On September 30, 1996, President Clinton signed into law the Economic
Development and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996 (the "Act"). The
Act's principal provisions relate to recapitalization of SAIF, but it also
contains numerous regulatory relief measures, some of which are directly
applicable to the Bank.
Pursuant to the Act, as of January 1, 1997, commercial banks will be
required to share in the payment of interest due on Financial Corporation
("FICO") bonds used to rescue the savings and loan industry in the 1980's.
Annual FICO assessments to be added to deposit insurance premiums are expected
to equal approximately 6.4 basis points for SAIF members and 1.3 basis points
for BIF members from January 1, 1997 through December 31, 1999, and
approximately 2.4 basis points for both BIF and SAIF members thereafter.
26
Although this provision of the Act establishes a time frame for the
eventual elimination of the thrift charter, it contains no provisions concerning
the form the current thrift charter may be required to take. The Bank cannot
determine at this time what effect this provision will have on financial
position or operations.
Finally, the Act contains several other provisions designed to reduce
regulatory burdens associated with compliance with various consumer and other
laws applicable to the Company, including for example, provisions designed to
coordinate the disclosure and other requirements under the Truth-in-Lending and
Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, modify certain insider lending
restrictions, permit OTS to allow exemptions to anti-tying prohibitions and
exempt certain transactions and simplify certain disclosures under the
Truth-in-Lending Act.
In addition, the United States Department of the Treasury recently
released a form of proposed legislation that would restructure the regulation of
the financial services industry, by among other things, eliminating the various
restrictions on the ability of banks to affiliate with companies engaged in
lines of business not generally currently permissible, such as securities and
insurance activities. Although the Company believes that the form of legislation
currently under consideration will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company, the Company cannot determine, whether or in what form, such legislation
will eventually be enacted or its effect on the Bank.
Regulatory Capital Requirements. Federally insured savings
associations, such as the Bank, are required to maintain a minimum level of
regulatory capital. The OTS has established capital standards, including a
tangible capital requirement, a leverage ratio (or core capital) requirement and
a risk-based capital requirement applicable to such savings associations. These
capital requirements must be generally as stringent as the comparable capital
requirements for national banks. The OTS is also authorized to impose capital
requirements in excess of these standards on individual associations on a
case-by-case basis.
The capital regulations require tangible capital of at least 1.5% of
adjusted total assets (as defined by regulation). Tangible capital generally
includes common stockholders' equity and retained income, and certain
noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related income. In addition, all
intangible assets, other than a limited amount of purchased mortgage servicing
rights, must be deducted from tangible capital for calculating compliance with
the requirement. At March 31, 1999, the Bank had no purchased mortgage servicing
rights.
The OTS regulations establish special capitalization requirements for
savings associations that own subsidiaries. In determining compliance with the
capital requirements, all subsidiaries engaged solely in activities permissible
for national banks or engaged in certain other activities solely as agent for
its customers are "includable" subsidiaries that are consolidated for capital
purposes in proportion to the association's level of ownership. For excludable
subsidiaries the debt and equity investments in such subsidiaries are deducted
from assets and capital. At March 31, 1999, the Bank's service corporation,
Perma Service, was an includable subsidiary; however, Perma Service's investment
in FFLIC was not considered an includable investment and, accordingly, the Bank
was required to deduct 100% of its investment in FFLIC from capital. At March
31, 1999, the non- includable portion of the Bank's investment in FFLIC totaled
$723,000. See also "Service Corporation Activities."
27
At March 31, 1999, the Bank had core capital of $32.8 million, or 6.76%
of adjusted total assets, which is approximately $13.4 million above the minimum
requirement of 4% of adjusted total assets in effect on that date.
The capital standards also require core capital equal to at least 4% of
adjusted total assets (as defined by regulation). Core capital generally
consists of tangible capital plus certain intangible assets, including a limited
amount of purchased credit card relationships. As a result of the prompt
corrective action provisions discussed below, however, a savings association
must maintain a core capital ratio of at least 4% to be considered adequately
capitalized unless its supervisory condition is such to allow it to maintain a
3% ratio. At March 31, 1999, the Bank had no intangibles which were subject to
these tests.
The OTS risk-based requirement requires savings associations to have
total capital of at least 8% of risk-weighted assets. Total capital consists of
core capital, as defined above, and supplementary capital. Supplementary capital
consists of certain permanent and maturing capital instruments that do not
qualify as core capital and general valuation loan and lease loss allowances up
to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets.
Certain exclusions from capital and assets are required to be made for
the purpose of calculating total capital. Such exclusions consist of equity
investments (as defined by regulation) and that portion of land loans and
nonresidential construction loans in excess of an 80% loan-to-value ratio and
reciprocal holdings of qualifying capital instruments. Other than goodwill, the
Bank's only exclusion from capital and assets at March 31, 1999 was its
investment in FFLIC.
In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets,
including certain off-balance sheet items, will be multiplied by a risk weight,
ranging from 0% to 100%, based on the risk inherent in the type of asset. For
example, the OTS has assigned a risk weight of 50% for prudently underwritten
permanent one- to four-family first lien mortgage loans not more than 90 days
delinquent and having a loan to value ratio of not more than 80% at origination
unless insured to such ratio by an insurer approved by the FNMA or FHLMC.
OTS Regulations also require that every savings association with more
than normal interest rate risk exposure to deduct from its total capital, for
purposes of determining compliance with such requirement, an amount equal to 50%
of its interest-rate risk exposure multiplied by the present value of its
assets. This exposure is a measure of the potential decline in the net portfolio
value of a savings association, greater than 2% of the present value of its
assets, based upon a hypothetical 200 basis point increase or decrease in
interest rates (whichever results in a greater decline). Net portfolio value is
the present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and
off-balance sheet contracts. The rule will not become effective until the OTS
evaluates the process by which savings associations may appeal an interest rate
risk deduction determination. It is uncertain as to when this evaluation may be
completed. Any savings association with less than $300 million in assets and a
total capital ratio in excess of 12% is exempt from this requirement unless the
OTS determines otherwise. Until the rule is finalized, no determination can be
made of what, if any, impact this rule may have on the Bank.
28
At March 31, 1999, the Bank had total capital of $34.3 million
(including $32.8 million in core capital) and risk-weighted assets of $280.1
million (including $9.7 million in converted off- balance sheet assets) or total
capital of 12.2% of risk-weighted assets. This amount was $11.9 million above
the 8% requirement in effect on that date.
The OTS and the FDIC are authorized and, under certain circumstances
required, to take certain actions against savings associations that fail to meet
their capital requirements. The OTS is generally required to take action to
restrict the activities of an "undercapitalized association" (generally defined
to be one with less than either a 4% core capital ratio, a 4% Tier 1
risked-based capital ratio or an 8% risk-based capital ratio). Any such
association must submit a capital restoration plan and until such plan is
approved by the OTS may not increase its assets, acquire another institution,
establish a branch or engage in any new activities, and generally may not make
capital distributions. The OTS is authorized to impose the additional
restrictions that are applicable to significantly undercapitalized associations.
As a condition to the approval of the capital restoration plan, any
company controlling an undercapitalized association must agree that it will
enter into a limited capital maintenance guarantee with respect to the
institution's achievement of its capital requirements.
Any savings association that fails to comply with its capital plan or
is "significantly undercapitalized" (i.e., Tier 1 risk-based or core capital
ratios of less than 3% or a risk-based capital ratio of less than 6%) must be
made subject to one or more of additional specified actions and operating
restrictions which may cover all aspects of its operations and include a forced
merger or acquisition of the association. An association that becomes
"critically undercapitalized" (i.e., a tangible capital ratio of 2% or less) is
subject to further mandatory restrictions on its activities in addition to those
applicable to significantly undercapitalized associations. In addition, the OTS
must appoint a receiver (or conservator with the concurrence of the FDIC) for a
savings association, with certain limited exceptions, within 90 days after it
becomes critically undercapitalized. Any undercapitalized association is also
subject to the general enforcement actions by the OTS and the FDIC, including
the appointment of a conservator or a receiver.
The OTS is also generally authorized to reclassify an association into
a lower capital category and impose the restrictions applicable to such category
if the institution is engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or is in an unsafe
or unsound condition.
The imposition by the OTS or the FDIC of any of these measures on the
Bank may have a substantial adverse effect on the Bank's operations and
profitability and the value of the Common Stock purchased in the Conversion.
Holding Company shareholders do not have preemptive rights; and therefore, if
the Holding Company is directed by the OTS or the FDIC to issue additional
shares of Common Stock, such issuance may result in the dilution in the
percentage of ownership of the Company.
Limitations on Dividends and Other Capital Distributions. OTS
regulations impose various restrictions or requirements on savings associations
with respect to their ability to make distributions of capital, which include
dividends, stock redemptions or repurchases, cash-out mergers and other
transactions charged to the capital account. OTS regulations also prohibit a
savings association from declaring or paying any dividends or from repurchasing
any of its stock if, as a result, the regulatory capital of the association
would be reduced below the amount required to be maintained for the liquidation
account established in connection with its mutual to stock conversion.
29
Generally, savings associations, such as the Subsidiary Bank that
before and after the proposed distribution meet their capital requirements, may
make capital distributions during any calendar year equal to the greater of 100%
of net income for the year-to-date plus 50% of the amount by which the lesser of
the association's tangible, core or risk-based capital exceeds its capital
requirement for such capital component, as measured at the beginning of the
calendar year, or 75% of their net income for the most recent four quarter
period. However, an association deemed to be in need of more than normal
supervision by the OTS may have its dividend authority restricted by the OTS.
Permanent Federal may pay dividends in accordance with this general authority.
Savings associations proposing to make any capital distribution need
only submit written notice to the OTS 30 days prior to such distribution.
Savings associations that do not, or would not meet their current minimum
capital requirements following a proposed capital distribution, however, must
obtain OTS approval prior to making such distribution. The OTS may object to the
distribution during that 30-day period notice based on safety and soundness
concerns. See "- Regulatory Capital Requirements."
The OTS has proposed regulations that would revise the current capital
distribution restrictions. Under the proposal a savings association may make a
capital distribution without notice to the OTS (unless it is a subsidiary of a
holding company) provided that it has a CAMEL 1 or 2 rating, is not of
supervisory concern, and would remain adequately capitalized (as defined in the
OTS prompt corrective action regulations) following the proposed distribution.
Savings associations that would remain adequately capitalized following the
proposed distribution but do not meet the other noted requirements must notify
the OTS 30 days prior to declaring a capital distribution. The OTS stated it
will generally regard as permissible that amount of capital distributions that
do not exceed 50% of the institution's excess regulatory capital plus net income
to date during the calendar year. A savings association may not make a capital
distribution without prior approval of the OTS and the FDIC if it is
undercapitalized before, or as a result of, such a distribution. As under the
current rule, the OTS may object to a capital distribution if it would
constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. No assurance may be given as to
whether or in what form the regulations may be adopted.
Liquidity. All savings associations, including the Bank, are required
to maintain an average daily balance of liquid assets equal to a certain
percentage of the sum of its average daily balance of net withdrawable deposit
accounts and borrowings payable in one year or less. For a discussion of what
the Bank includes in liquid assets, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources"
in the Annual Report. This liquid asset ratio requirement may vary from time to
time (between 4% and 10%) depending upon economic conditions and savings flows
of all savings associations. At the present time, the minimum liquid asset ratio
is 4%.
Penalties may be imposed upon associations for violations of the liquid
asset ratio requirement. At March 31, 1999, the Bank was in compliance with the
requirements, with an overall liquid asset ratio of 40.5%.
Accounting. An OTS policy statement applicable to all savings
associations clarifies and reemphasizes that the investment activities of a
savings association must be in compliance with approved and documented
investment policies and strategies, and must be accounted for in accordance with
GAAP. Under the policy statement, management must support its classification of
30
and accounting for loans and securities (i.e., whether held for investment, sale
or trading) with appropriate documentation. The Bank is in compliance with these
amended rules.
OTS accounting regulations, which may be made more stringent than GAAP
by the OTS, require that transactions be reported in a manner that best reflects
their underlying economic substance and inherent risk and that financial reports
must incorporate any other accounting regulations or orders prescribed by the
OTS.
Qualified Thrift Lender Test. All savings associations, including the
Bank, are required to meet a qualified thrift lender ("QTL") test to avoid
certain restrictions on their operations. This test requires a savings
association to have at least 65% of its portfolio assets (as defined by
regulation) in qualified thrift investments on a monthly average for nine out of
every 12 months on a rolling basis. As an alternative, the savings association
may maintain 60% of its assets in those assets specified in Section 7701(a)(19)
of the Internal Revenue Code. Under either test, such assets primarily consist
of residential housing related loans and investments. At March 31, 1999, the
Bank met the test and has always met the test since it has been in effect.
Any savings association that fails to meet the QTL test must convert to
a national bank charter, unless it requalifies as a QTL and thereafter remains a
QTL. If an association does not requalify and converts to a national bank
charter, it must remain SAIF-insured until the FDIC permits it to transfer to
BIF. If such an association has not yet requalified or converted to a national
bank, its new investments and activities are limited to those permissible for
both a savings association and a national bank, and it is limited to national
bank branching rights in its home state. In addition, the association is
immediately ineligible to receive any new FHLB borrowings and is subject to
national bank limits for payment of dividends. If such association has not
requalified or converted to a national bank within three years after the
failure, it must divest of all investments and cease all activities not
permissible for a national bank. In addition, it must repay promptly any
outstanding FHLB borrowings, which may result in prepayment penalties. If any
association that fails the QTL test is controlled by a holding company, then
within one year after the failure, the holding company must register as a bank
holding company and become subject to all restrictions on bank holding
companies. See "- Holding Company Regulation."
Community Reinvestment Act
Under the Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA"), every FDIC insured
institution has a continuing and affirmative obligation consistent with safe and
sound banking practices to help meet the credit needs of its entire community,
including low and moderate income neighborhoods. The CRA does not establish
specific lending requirements or programs for financial institutions nor does it
limit an institution's discretion to develop the types of products and services
that it believes are best suited to its particular community, consistent with
the CRA. The CRA requires the OTS, in connection with the examination of
Permanent Federal, to assess the institution's record of meeting the credit
needs of its community and to take such record into account in its evaluation of
certain applications, such as a merger or the establishment of a branch, by
Permanent Federal. An unsatisfactory rating may be used as the basis for the
denial of an application by the OTS.
The federal banking agencies, including the OTS, have recently revised
the CRA regulations and the methodology for determining an institution's
compliance with the CRA. Due to the heightened attention being given to the CRA
in the past few years, the Bank may be required to
31
devote additional funds for investment and lending in its local community. The
Bank was examined for CRA compliance in November 1997 and received a rating of
satisfactory.
Transactions with Affiliates. Generally, transactions between a savings
association or its subsidiaries and its affiliates are required to be on terms
as favorable to the association as transactions with non-affiliates. In
addition, certain of these transactions, such as loans to an affiliate are
restricted to a percentage of the association's capital. Affiliates of the Bank
include the Company and any company which is under common control with the Bank.
In addition, a savings association may not lend to any affiliate engaged in
activities not permissible for a bank holding company or acquire the securities
of most affiliates. The Bank's subsidiaries are not deemed affiliates, however;
the OTS has the discretion to treat subsidiaries of savings associations as
affiliates on a case-by-case basis.
Certain transactions with directors, officers or controlling persons
are also subject to conflict of interest regulations enforced by the OTS. These
conflict of interest regulations and other statutes also impose restrictions on
loans to such persons and their related interests. Among other things, such
loans must be made on terms substantially the same as for loans to unaffiliated
individuals.
Holding Company Regulation. The Company is a unitary savings and loan
holding company subject to regulatory oversight by the OTS. As such, the Company
is required to register and file reports with the OTS and is subject to
regulation and examination by the OTS. In addition, the OTS has enforcement
authority over the Company and its non-savings association subsidiaries which
also permits the OTS to restrict or prohibit activities that are determined to
be a serious risk to the subsidiary savings association.
As a unitary savings and loan holding company, the Company generally is
not subject to activity restrictions. If the Company acquires control of another
savings association as a separate subsidiary, it would become a multiple savings
and loan holding company, and the activities of the Company and any of its
subsidiaries (other than the Bank or any other SAIF-insured savings association)
would become subject to such restrictions unless such other associations each
qualify as a QTL and were acquired in a supervisory acquisition.
If the Bank fails the QTL test, the Company must obtain the approval of
the OTS prior to continuing after such failure, directly or through its other
subsidiaries, any business activity other than those approved for multiple
savings and loan holding companies or their subsidiaries. In addition, within
one year of such failure the Company must register as and will become subject to
the restrictions applicable to bank holding companies. The activities authorized
for a bank holding company are more limited than are the activities authorized
for a unitary or multiple savings and loan holding company. See "- Qualified
Thrift Lender Test."
The Company must obtain approval from the OTS before acquiring control
of any other SAIF-insured association. Such acquisitions are generally
prohibited if they result in a multiple savings and loan holding company
controlling savings associations in more than one state. However, such
interstate acquisitions are permitted based on specific state authorization or
in a supervisory acquisition of a failing savings association.
Federal Securities Law. The stock of the Company is registered with the
SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").
The Company is subject to the
32
information, proxy solicitation, insider trading restrictions and other
requirements of the SEC under the Exchange Act.
Company stock held by persons who are affiliates (generally officers,
directors and principal stockholders) of the Holding Company may not be resold
without registration or unless sold in accordance with certain resale
restrictions. If the Company meets specified current public information
requirements, each affiliate of the Company is able to sell in the public
market, without registration, a limited number of shares in any three-month
period.
Federal Reserve System. The Federal Reserve Board requires all
depository institutions to maintain non-interest bearing reserves at specified
levels against their transaction accounts (primarily checking, NOW and Super NOW
checking accounts). At March 31, 1999, the Bank was in compliance with these
reserve requirements. The balances maintained to meet the reserve requirements
imposed by the Federal Reserve Board may be used to satisfy liquidity
requirements that may be imposed by the OTS. See "- Liquidity."
Savings associations are authorized to borrow from the Federal Reserve
Bank "discount window," but Federal Reserve Board regulations require
associations to exhaust other reasonable alternative sources of funds, including
FHLB borrowings, before borrowing from the Federal Reserve Bank.
Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Bank is a member of the FHLB of
Indianapolis, which is one of 12 regional FHLBs ("FHLB System"), that
administers the home financing credit function of savings associations. Each
FHLB serves as a reserve or central bank for its members within its assigned
region. It is funded primarily from proceeds derived from the sale of
consolidated obligations of the FHLB System. It makes loans to members (i.e.,
advances) in accordance with policies and procedures established by the board of
directors of the FHLB which are subject to the regulation and oversight of the
Federal Housing Finance Board. All advances from the FHLB are required to be
fully secured by sufficient collateral as determined by the FHLB. In addition,
all long-term advances are required to provide funds for residential home
financing.
As a member, the Bank is required to purchase and maintain stock in the
FHLB of Indianapolis. At March 31, 1999, the Bank had $5.5 million in FHLB
stock, which was in compliance with this requirement. In past years, the Bank
has received substantial dividends on its FHLB stock. Over the past five fiscal
years, such dividends have averaged approximately 8% and were 8.03% for fiscal
year ended March 31, 1999. Under federal law the FHLBs are required to provide
funds for the resolution of troubled savings associations and to contribute to
low- and moderately priced housing programs through direct loans or interest
subsidies on advances targeted for community investment and low- and
moderate-income housing projects. These contributions have affected adversely
the level of FHLB dividends paid and could continue to do so in the future.
These contributions could also have an adverse effect on the value of FHLB stock
in the future. A reduction in value of Permanent Federal's FHLB stock may result
in a corresponding reduction in Permanent Federal's capital. For the fiscal year
ended March 31, 1999, dividends paid by the FHLB of Indianapolis to the Bank
totaled $437,696, which constitute a $4,873 increase over the amount of
dividends received in the fiscal year ended March 31, 1998.
33
Federal and State Taxation
Savings associations such as the Bank that meet certain definitional
tests relating to the composition of assets and other conditions prescribed by
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), had been permitted
to establish reserves for bad debts and to make annual additions thereto which
could, within specified formula limits, be taken as a deduction in computing
taxable income for federal income tax purposes. The amount of the bad debt
reserve deduction for "non-qualifying loans" was computed under the experience
method. The amount of the bad debt reserve deduction for "qualifying real
property loans" (generally loans secured by improved real estate) could be
computed under either the experience method or the percentage of taxable income
method (based on an annual election).
Under the experience method, the bad debt reserve deduction is an
amount determined under a formula based generally upon the bad debts actually
sustained by the savings association over a period of years.
In August 1996, legislation was enacted that repealed the reserve
method of accounting (including the percentage of taxable income method) used by
many thrifts, including the Bank, to calculate their bad debt reserve for
federal income tax purposes. As a result, thrifts must recapture that portion of
the reserve that exceeds the amount that could have been under the specific
charge-off method for post-1987 tax years. The legislation also requires thrifts
to account for bad debts for federal income tax purposes on the same basis as
commercial banks for tax years beginning after December 31, 1995. The recapture
will occur over a six-year period, the commencement of which will be delayed
until the first taxable year beginning after December 31, 1997, provided the
institution meets certain residential lending requirements. The management of
the company does not believe that the legislation will have a material impact on
the Company or the Bank.
In addition to the regular income tax, corporations, including savings
associations such as the Bank, generally are subject to a minimum tax. An
alternative minimum tax is imposed at a minimum tax rate of 20% on alternative
minimum taxable income, which is the sum of a corporation's regular taxable
income (with certain adjustments) and tax preference items, less any available
exemption. The alternative minimum tax is imposed to the extent it exceeds the
corporation's regular income tax, and net operating losses can offset no more
than 90% of alternative minimum taxable income. For taxable years beginning
after 1986 and before 1996, corporations, including savings associations such as
the Bank, are also subject to an environmental tax equal to 0.12% of the excess
of alternative minimum taxable income for the taxable year (determined without
regard to net operating losses and the deduction for the environmental tax) over
$2 million.
To the extent earnings appropriated to a savings association's bad debt
reserves for "qualifying real property loans" and deducted for federal income
tax purposes exceed the allowable amount of such reserves computed under the
experience method and to the extent of the association's supplemental reserves
for losses on loans ("Excess"), such Excess may not, without adverse tax
consequences, be utilized for the payment of cash dividends or other
distributions to a shareholder (including distributions on redemption,
dissolution or liquidation) or for any other purpose (except to absorb bad debt
losses). As of March 31, 1999, the Bank's Excess for tax purposes totaled
approximately $6 million.
34
The Bank and its subsidiary file consolidated federal income tax
returns on a fiscal year basis using the accrual method of accounting. The
Company files consolidated federal income tax returns with the Bank and its
subsidiary.
The Bank and its consolidated subsidiary have not been audited by the
IRS with respect to consolidated federal income tax returns during the past
seven years. In the opinion of management, any examination of still open returns
(including returns of subsidiaries and predecessors of, or entities merged into,
the Bank) would not result in a deficiency which could have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition, results of operations or liquidity of the
Bank and its consolidated subsidiary.
Indiana Taxation. Indiana imposes a franchise tax on financial
institutions at the rate of 8.5% of modified federal taxable income. The
modifications to federal taxable income include an add- back of municipal
interest and state and local property taxes and bad debt deductions are limited
to actual net charge-offs. The franchise tax is imposed on a combined basis
including the Company, the Bank and its subsidiary.
Delaware Taxation. As a Delaware holding company, the Company is
exempted from Delaware corporate income tax but is required to file an annual
report with and pay an annual fee to the State of Delaware. The Company is also
subject to an annual franchise tax imposed by the State of Delaware.
