[LOGO] - ------ PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE ESSEX - ------ 1 Corporate Objectives These corporate objectives are consistent with Essex Bancorp's strategic plan, as approved by the Board of Directors at the December 12, 2000 planning retreat and as set forth in the business plan prepared in January 2001. [LOGO] - ------ ESSEX - ------ 3 Corporate Objectives . Full repayment of preferred stock plus accumulated dividends . Generate positive return for common shareholders, despite negative book value per common share and negative earnings per common share and expectations for continued valuation deterioration . Reduce the complexity of the capital structure to make the company more attractive to the investment community and/or potential acquirors . Continue to implement strategies designed to enhance franchise value in the short-term and in the long-term . Reduce expenses of operating as a public company, given that Essex Bancorp has not been able to take advantage of the benefits generally attributable to public company status [LOGO] - ------ PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE ESSEX - ------ 3 Common Shareholder Considerations [LOGO] - ------ ESSEX - ------ Common Shareholder Considerations . Continued Erosion of Common Shareholder Value Anticipated . Current earnings are insufficient to cover the preferred stock dividend, despite Essex's growth and improvement in financial characteristics in recent years . Thus common earnings per share (EPS) is negative, further eroding negative book value per share . Current leveraged capital position restricts asset growth and diversification opportunities . Thus earnings are not anticipated to increase to levels sufficient to cover preferred dividend or pay accumulated dividends to preferred shareholders in the foreseeable future . Common Stock Ownership is Primarily Retail . No control blocks of the outstanding shares of common stock . Nominal institutional holders . No shareholder activists . Common Stock Price Does Not Reflect Fundamentals as a Going Concern . No research coverage of common stock limits investment community awareness . Potential misunderstanding of common stock characteristics given . Negative EPS and book value per share . Significant dilution potential posed by warrants and de facto voting control by warrant holders . Outlook for a common stock dividend is unrealistic . Other Considerations . Costly to operate as a registered publicly-traded company, particularly given large number of shareholders . Full benefit of net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") not currently anticipated to be realized [LOGO] - ------ PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE ESSEX - ------ 5 Common Shareholder Considerations . Alternative Strategies Suggest No Value or Value Below Current Stock Price . Sale of Control Strategy . Limited acquisition interest from prospective acquirors for entire company, in part due to complex capital structure and geographic spread of branches . Past acquisition interest indicated total deal values in which common shareholders would have received no consideration and preferred shareholders would receive a haircut . Sale of Preferred Stock to Third Parties Who Could Utilize the NOLs . Limited interest from prospective purchasers who could benefit from NOLs . Financial modernization legislation eliminated non financial services companies from being prospective purchasers . Provided no immediate benefit to common shareholders . Full/Partial Preferred Stock Refunding Strategy (Common Stock Offering) . Limited interest by investment banking firms in such a transaction . Weak market conditions have prevailed for new thrift offerings during last couple of years . Would be highly dilutive to current common shareholders, given size of offering and anticipated pricing at levels well below current market price . Limited short-term benefit to common shareholders . Liquidation Strategy . Risky strategy as a publicly-traded company if liquidation is not fully completed or liquidation residual fall short of initial expectations . Highest liquidation returns may be realized if liquidation process can be conducted discretely (disclosure required as a public company limits ability to be discrete) . Potential liquidation residual for common shareholders difficult to quantify -- fairness issues arise if residual falls short of expectations (at which point strategy would not be reversible) [LOGO] - ------ PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE ESSEX - ------ 6 Common Shareholder Considerations . Capital Structure Impact on Operating Strategy and Operations . The overall shareholder strategy is highly influential on the appropriate short-term and long-term financial, operational and competitive strategies to implement -- suggesting that shareholder strategies should be addressed first . Until a selected shareholder strategy is implemented, there is a tendency to be less profitable, efficient and competitive given the short-term bias . Financial Considerations: Short-term vs. Long-term . Investment in loan participations to enhance portfolio yield -- tendency to pass up potential participation opportunities which may provide higher yields . Length of contracts (maintenance, insurance, data processing and other service contracts) -- tendency to execute short-term contracts which have higher costs but reduces exposure of contract termination provisions . Operational Considerations: Short-term vs. Long term . De novo branching -- reluctance to pursue branching given short- term adverse impact on earnings . Branch acquisitions -- reluctance to create intangible assets . Investment in technology -- reluctance to pursue investment in online banking systems and marketing software given short-term adverse impact to earnings and potential disruption to employees and customers . Staffing considerations -- difficult to attract and retain key management and personnel in new business lines and existing business lines . Strategic acquisitions or affiliations -- difficult to pursue acquisitions or affiliations given complexities of capital structure and stock price characteristics [LOGO] - ------ PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE ESSEX - ------ 7 Privatization Transaction Overview At this point, the privatization transaction structure has been preliminarily developed. Thus, changes to the overall structure may have an impact on the common stock valuation considerations and valuation range. [LOGO] - ------ ESSEX - ----- Privatization Strategy: Pros and Cons . Pros * Eliminates risk of no residual value for current common shareholders * May be funded with debt, no additional investment by preferred shareholders required * Eliminates cost of being a public company (exceeds $100,000 annually) * Increased flexibility as a privately-held institution, since composition of new common shareholders will be similar to the preferred stock/warrant holders * Gain ability to consider subchapter S corporate status, as total new common shareholders are anticipated to fall below the 75 shareholder threshold * Better positioned to pay dividends to new common shareholders (ie., the warrant holding preferred shareholders) * Simplified capital and ownership structure enhances ability to implement alternative strategies (enhanced marketability in strategic affiliations, future public offerings or a sale of control) . Cons * Transaction involves a number of complexities and many issues need to be examined --accounting and tax matters, determination of fair value for the common shareholder and warrant holders, director independence * Reduced utilization of NOLs * Transaction costs: legal, financial, accounting, regulatory, printing, mailing, proxy solicitation * May dilute potential return to holders of preferred stock and warrants [LOGO] 9 - ------ ESSEX - ----- Media Coverage of "Going Private" . Weekly Adviser: In A Buyer's Market, Going Private Makes Sense -------------------------------------------------------------- . Tuesday, March 14, 2000 By Paul S. Nadler . In concluding last week's column, we asked community banks whether they would be better off de-registering and going private. . The current merger and acquisition climate has created a buyer's market for community banks. Many banks aren't getting offers at all, and those that are often find that multiples are far lower than they were 18 to 24 months ago. . This may seem odd to those whose banks and thrifts have gone public and have given up their mutual status. Going public, they felt, would provide more capital, give the bank a chance to issue options to employees, and generate profits for those connected with the bank as market prices rose. . The last few months have shown this is not always the case. Bringing in institutional investors has forced the banks to concentrate on generating profits to influence share price, even if they must increase their risk. There is also the concern that unhappy institutional investors might shake up the bank's hierarchy. . A small private bank has no such worries; it can devote its earnings to salaries and to benefiting its community, instead of trying to boost share price. . Equally important, a privately held bank can become a subchapter S corporation. This means the bank does not have to pay taxes on earnings before distributing them to shareholders. . The question is: How do you go private? . The law says you can have no more than 75 shareholders to become an S corporation. An attempt to have this raised to 150 was defeated in last year's congressional session. . The most basic tool for reducing the number of shareholders is a tender offer. The offer must be above the market price of the bank and must have a solid investment banker's approval. . A tender offer also requires salesmanship. Persuading institutional holders to tender won't be too difficult, because they will see that the bank's stock is going nowhere and decide their capital is better used elsewhere. . Individuals, however, must be shown that their bank stock would lose liquidity and that it would be difficult to retrieve their investments. . Sometimes a reverse split is necessary. If the bank does not have enough capital to finance a tender, it may have to sell bonds. . The bank can improve its position in the community by lessening shareholders. It may, of course, want to keep certain shareholders because of the business they generate. The 75 remaining shareholders can be valuable assets instead of just recipients of the bank's profits. . A great many mutuals have listened to the siren song of the investment bankers: "If you go public you will become rich." . Many bankers who did go public learned you can become poor, too; their stocks dropped below the initial offering price or, as happened in a number of cases, down to zero. . Now the banks that go private can concentrate on their other two publics: their employees and their community. This is where community banks' strength has been and where it may reemerge. .

[LOGO] PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE 10 - ------ ESSEX - ----- Privatization Transaction Structure . Essex establishes a new and temporary company e.g., Essex Acquisition Corp. ("EAC") . EAC borrows from 3rd party in order to fund a cash merger with Essex in which the holders of common shares receive fair market value . With at least 50% vote of common shares, the merger is completed and such voted shares are cancelled . Preferred shareholders are issued new shares of common stock on a pro rata basis based on their interests in the exercisable warrants for newly-issued common shares . With approximately 60 investors, Essex de-registers as a public company . Dividends upstreamed from Essex Savings Bank to the holding company provides the ability to service the debt [LOGO] PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE 11 - ------ ESSEX - ----- Valuation Analysis [LOGO] - ------ ESSEX - ----- Peer Group Analysis (Going Concern Basis) Due to inherent differences in the business, operations, financial condition and capital structure of Essex relative to the Peer Group, it is inappropriate to rely solely on such comparative analysis for the determination of value of the outstanding shares of common stock. First, such technique addresses the value of minority stock with no controlling interest, unlike the Essex situation. Second, unlike Essex, the Peer Group maintains positive earnings per common share and book value per common share, providing a fundamental basis for the Peer Group's common stock pricing. [LOGO] - ------ ESSEX - ----- Peer Group Analysis (Going Concern Basis) . RP Financial compared the financial and market performance of Essex, based on various financial measures relative to a peer group of publicly traded thrifts * Financial Performance . Financial condition, earnings performance, operating efficiency . Capital adequacy . Asset quality, adequacy of valuation allowances * Market Performance . Price/common book value per share . Price/earnings per common share . Dividend yields . Peer Group selected on the basis of * Publicly-traded (NASDAQ, AMEX, NYSE) * Southeast region * Asset size (under $1 billion in assets) * Operating strategy (traditional thrift strategy with mortgage banking emphasis) * Corporate structure (excludes mutual holding companies) . Pricing comparison not highly meaningful given the negative book value per common share and earnings per common share, as application of Peer Group multiples, even before adjustments, indicates nominal value of Essex common shares [LOGO] PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE 14 - ------ ESSEX - ----- Peer Group Financial and Market Analysis Essex Bancorp, Inc.

RP Financial reviewed the implied premium paid for the common stock in the following transactions: . 1. Acquisitions of publicly-traded banks and thrifts . While all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Essex are being repurchased in the privatization transaction, similar to an acquisition, the warrant holders already have de facto control . Accordingly, the privatization transaction would not need to reflect a full control premium in the acquisition context . 2. Other going private transactions of banks and thrifts . Essex's privatization transaction is unique structurally, but share a number of similarities as well . Differing structures of going private transactions leads to wide range of premiums paid . 3. "Dutch tender auction" transactions of banks and thrifts . Dutch auction repurchases are for only a portion of the shares outstanding, where all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Essex are being repurchased in the privatization transaction . Accordingly, the pricing in Essex's may require a higher premium than paid in Dutch auction self tender transactions [LOGO] - ----- PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE ESSEX 21 - ----- Premium Paid Analysis: 1.

Premiums Paid In Dutch Tender Auctions [LOGO] - ------ PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE RP ESSEX - ------ Premium Paid Analysis: 3. Premiums Paid In Dutch Tender Auctions . Objective * A stock repurchase strategy to deploy excess capital, particularly if Board/management perceive that current stock price is undervalued and seeks to repurchase a large block of shares . Structure of Modified Dutch Auctions * Involves a tender offer by the company to purchase a set amount of shares at a range of prices * Range of stock prices typically reflects a premium to the current trading price for the stock as an incentive to shareholders to tender their shares * Stockholders offer their shares at a selected price within the range, and the company purchases shares either at . (i) the average price offered or . (ii) the lowest prices tendered . Other Considerations * Reduces equity quickly * Increases ownership interest of insiders * Avoids brokerage fees for stockholders/Company generally pays stock transfer charges * Possibly opens the door to a third party offer . Since company is signaling its overcapitalization and undervaluation -- raises questions of ability to generate market rate of returns . Raises questions regarding the ability to realize a higher premium pursuant to a sale of control . Pricing Analysis (see following table) * Approximately 15% control premium to acquire nearly 20% of shares outstanding [LOGO] - ------ PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE ESSEX - ------ 28 Discounted Cash Flow Analysis Five year financial projections were prepared, based on a continuation of Essex's fiscal 2001 business plan, to evaluate the potential impact to book value per common share and earnings per common share while maintaining the current capital structure. Despite strong projected earnings growth, it does not appear that earnings will cover the preferred dividends, which are increasing at a compounded rate. Thus, it appears no value is generated under this scenario for the common shareholders. [LOGO] - ------ PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE RP ESSEX - ------ Discounted Cash Flow Analysis . Value determined by present value of (1) dividends over the next 5 years plus (2) the terminal value, reflecting multipliers applied to year 5 earnings and book value incorporating Essex's business plan. . Annual asset growth: 7.5% annually, reflecting slightly faster loan growth, and funded primarily by deposits, as some borrowings are repaid in 2001 and maintained constant after . Key operating assumptions * Constant interest rates * No significant change in asset mix (except as noted above) * No significant change in risk profile -- maintain constant loan loss provisions * Other income growth moderates after strong growth in 2001 * Operating expense growth moderates after strong growth in 2001 * Earnings are taxable at a 39.55% effective rate (consistent with budget) * No dividends paid to preferred or common shareholders * No change in common shares outstanding (no exercise of warrants or options) * Terminal value multipliers are derived from thrift acquisition pricing ratios * 15% discount rate applied to future cash flows (dividends and terminal value) * No significant change in regulatory or competitive environment . Summary of Projections * Earnings increase from $0.568 million in 2001 to $1.860 million in 2005 * Book value per common share deficit continues to grow to -$10.17 in Year 5 * Earnings per common share deficit begins to improve but remains negative -$1.44 in Year 5 . Common Stock Valuation Conclusion Pursuant to DCF Technique * No value can determined pursuant to a stand alone operation while maintaining current capital structure, and common shareholder position continues to deteriorate [LOGO] PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE - ------ ESSEX 30 - ----- Application of Common Stock Valuation Techniques to Essex Bancorp, Inc. [LOGO] PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE - ------ ESSEX - ----- Relevancy of Common Stock Valuation Techniques to Essex Bancorp, Inc. . Peer Group Analysis * Technique determines value of minority stock without any premium * Application of technique suggests no value for Essex common shares given the negative book value per common share and negative earnings per common share . Comparable Transactions Analysis * Technique determines value of stock pursuant to merger transactions, based on pricing multiples paid for earnings, book value, core deposits and assets * Application of technique suggests a nominal common stock value for Essex, if any . Premium Paid Analyses (Relative to Pre-Announcement Stock Price) * Acquisitions of publicly-traded banks and thrifts . Given that warrant holders already have de facto control, and since Essex's stock is trading well above the value implied by fundamentals, the premium paid for control in acquisitions of publicly-traded banks and thrifts serves to set an upper limit for the appropriate premium for the outstanding shares of common stock in Essex's case * Other "going private" transactions of publicly-traded banks and thrifts . In applying the wide range of premiums paid in the limited number of other "going private" transactions of public banks and thrifts, the uniqueness of Essex's characteristics and reasons for the privatization must be considered * "Dutch tender auction" transactions for publicly-traded banks and thrifts . Dutch auction transactions typically do not result in control by the remaining common shareholders, while the Essex warrant holders have de facto control even before the privatization transaction, thus the "Dutch tender auction" premium paid by publicly traded banks and thrifts serves to set the lower limit for the appropriate premium for the outstanding shares of common stock in Essex's case . Discounted cash flow analysis * Since earnings per common share is not projected to turn positive in the next 5 years and the book value per common share deficit deteriorates further, the application of this technique suggests no value for the Essex common stock absent a capital structure transaction [LOGO] PRELIMINARY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE - ------ ESSEX 32 - ----- Essex Common Stock Price Utilized to Determine Premium .
