                         ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
                         To be held on October 26, 1999
                              --------------------

     MSB  Financial  Inc.'s Board of Directors is using this proxy  statement to
solicit  proxies from the holders of MSB  Financial  common stock for use at MSB
Financial's  annual  meeting of  shareholders.  We are first  mailing this proxy
statement  and the  enclosed  form of  proxy  to our  shareholders  on or  about
September 24, 1999.

     Certain of the  information  provided  herein  relates to Marshall  Savings
Bank, F.S.B., a wholly owned subsidiary of MSB Financial.

TIME AND PLACE OF THE ANNUAL MEETING; MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED

     Time and Place of the Annual  Meeting.  Our annual  meeting will be held as
follows:

         Date:    October 26, 1999
         Time:    10:30 a.m., local time
         Place:   Schuler's Restaurant
                  115 South Eagle Street
                  Marshall, Michigan

     Matters  to  be  Considered  at  the  Annual   Meeting.   At  the  meeting,
shareholders  of MSB  Financial  are being asked to  consider  and vote upon the
following proposals:

          o        the election of three directors of MSB Financial, each with a
                   term of three years;

          o        the ratification of the appointment of Crowe,  Chizek and
                   Company  LLP  as  MSB  Financial's   independent auditors for
                   the fiscal year  ending June 30,  2000; and

any other  matters  that may  properly  come  before  the MSB  Financial  annual
meeting.  As of the date of this proxy statement,  we are not aware of any other
business to be presented for  consideration at the annual meeting other than the
matters described in this proxy statement.

VOTING RIGHTS OF SHAREHOLDERS; VOTES REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL

     Voting  Rights of  Shareholders.  We have  fixed the close of  business  on
September 17, 1999 as the record date for shareholders entitled to notice of and
to vote at the MSB  Financial  annual  meeting.  Only  holders  of record of MSB
Financial common stock on that record date are entitled to notice of and to vote
at the  annual  meeting.  You are  entitled  to one vote  for each  share of MSB
Financial  common stock you own. On September 17, 1999,  1,255,806 shares of MSB
Financial  common  stock were  outstanding  and  entitled  to vote at the annual
meeting.


                                        1





     We maintain an Employee Stock  Ownership Plan ("ESOP") which owns 10.12% of
MSB Financial common stock. Employees of MSB Financial and Marshall Savings Bank
participate in the ESOP. Each ESOP participant instructs the trustee of the plan
how to vote the shares of MSB  Financial  common  stock  allocated to his or her
account  under the ESOP.  If an ESOP  participant  properly  executes the voting
instruction  card  distributed  by the ESOP trustee,  the ESOP trustee will vote
such  participant's  shares in accordance with the  shareholder's  instructions.
Where  properly  executed  voting  instruction  cards are  returned  to the ESOP
trustee with no specific  instruction as how to vote at the annual meeting,  the
trustee will vote the shares "FOR" each of  management's  director  nominees and
"FOR" the proposal to ratify  Crowe,  Chizek and Company LLP as our  independent
auditors  for the fiscal year ending June 30,  2000.  As to shares for which the
ESOP trustee receives no timely voting  instructions,  the trustee will not vote
any such shares.  The ESOP trustee will vote all of the shares of MSB  Financial
common stock held in the ESOP but not allocated to any participant's  account in
the manner  directed by the majority of the ESOP  participants  who directed the
trustee  as to the  manner of  voting  their  allocated  shares in the ESOP with
respect to each such proposal.

     Votes  Required for  Approval.  Directors are elected by a plurality of the
votes  cast,  in person or by proxy,  at the  annual  meeting  by holders of MSB
Financial  common  stock.  This means that the director  nominees  with the most
affirmative  votes are  elected to fill the  available  seats.  Shares  that are
represented by proxy which are marked "vote withheld" for the election of one or
more  director  nominees  will  have no effect  on the vote on the  election  of
directors.

     Ratification  of the  appointment  of Crowe,  Chizek and Company LLP as our
independent  auditors  for the fiscal year ending  June 30,  2000  requires  the
affirmative  vote of the majority of shares cast, in person or by proxy,  at the
annual  meeting by holders  of MSB  Financial  common  stock.  In cases  where a
shareholder  abstains from voting on the proposal to ratify the  appointment  of
Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP as our independent auditors, those shares will not
be included in the vote total and, therefore, will have no effect on the outcome
of the vote.

     Under  certain  circumstances,   brokers  are  prohibited  from  exercising
discretionary  authority for beneficial  owners who have not returned proxies to
the brokers (so-called "broker non-votes"). In such cases, those shares will not
be included in the vote totals with  respect to those  particular  matters  and,
therefore,  will have no effect on the outcome of the vote.  However,  under The
Nasdaq Stock  Market  rules,  if your broker holds you shares in its name,  your
broker is permitted to vote your shares on both matters to be  considered at the
annual meeting even if it does not receive voting instructions from you.

     THE MSB FINANCIAL BOARD OF DIRECTORS  UNANIMOUSLY  RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE
"FOR" ELECTION OF EACH OF MANAGEMENT'S  DIRECTOR NOMINEES AND "FOR" THE PROPOSAL
TO RATIFY CROWE, CHIZEK AND COMPANY LLP AS MSB FINANCIAL'S  INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2000.

VOTING OF PROXIES; REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES; PROXY SOLICITATION COSTS

     Voting of Proxies.  Proxies are  solicited to provide all  shareholders  of
record on the voting record date an opportunity to vote on matters scheduled for
the annual  meeting and  described in these  materials.  Shares of MSB Financial
common  stock can only be voted if the  shareholder  is present in person at the
annual meeting or by proxy. To ensure your representation at the annual meeting,
we  recommend  you vote by proxy even if you plan to attend the annual  meeting.
You can always change your vote at the meeting.


                                        2





     Voting  instructions  are  included  on  your  proxy  card.  Shares  of MSB
Financial common stock represented by properly executed proxies will be voted by
the  individuals  named in such  proxy  in  accordance  with  the  shareholder's
instructions. Where properly executed proxies are returned to MSB Financial with
no specific  instruction as how to vote at the annual meeting, the persons named
in the proxy will vote the shares  "FOR" the  election  of each of  management's
director nominees and "FOR" ratification of the appointment of Crowe, Chizek and
Company  LLP as our  independent  auditors  for the fiscal  year ending June 30,
2000.  Should any other matters be properly  presented at the annual meeting for
action,  the persons named in the enclosed proxy and acting thereunder will have
the discretion to vote on these matters in accordance with their best judgment.

     You may receive  more than one proxy card  depending on how your shares are
held. For example, you may hold some of your shares  individually,  some jointly
with your  spouse and some in trust for your  children -- in which case you will
receive three separate proxy cards to vote.

     Revocability of Proxies. You may revoke your proxy before it is voted by:

          o       submitting a new proxy with a later date;

          o       notifying the Corporate Secretary of MSB Financial in writing
                  before the annual meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or

          o       voting in person at the annual meeting.

     If you plan to attend the  annual  meeting  and wish to vote in person,  we
will give you a ballot at the annual meeting.  However,  if your shares are held
in the name of your  broker,  bank or other  nominee,  you must bring an account
statement  or letter from the nominee  indicating  that you were the  beneficial
owner of MSB Financial  common stock on September 17, 1999,  the record date for
voting at the MSB Financial annual meeting.

     Proxy Solicitation  Costs. We will pay the cost of soliciting  proxies.  In
addition to this mailing, our directors, officers and employees may also solicit
proxies  personally,  electronically  or by  telephone.  We will also  reimburse
brokers and other nominees for their expenses in sending these  materials to you
and obtaining your voting instructions.

VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF

     The following  table sets forth, as of the September 17, 1999 voting record
date,  information  regarding  share ownership of: (i) those persons or entities

                       PROPOSAL I -- ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

     Our Board of Directors consists of seven members.  Approximately  one-third
of the directors are elected annually to serve for a three-year  period or until
their  respective  successors  are elected and  qualified.  All of our  nominees
currently serve as MSB Financial directors.

     The table below sets forth  information  regarding  our Board of Directors,
including their age,  position on the board and term of office.  If any director
nominee is unable to serve before the election, your proxy authorizes us to vote
for a replacement  nominee if our Board of Directors names one. At this time, we
are not aware of any reason why a nominee  might be unable to serve if  elected.
Except as  disclosed  in this  proxy  statement,  there are no  arrangements  or
understandings  between any nominee and any other person  pursuant to which such

BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES; DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

     Meetings of MSB  Financial.  The MSB  Financial  Board met 14 times  during
fiscal 1999.  All of the directors  attended at least 75% of the Board  meetings
and meetings of the  committees on which they served during the period they were
directors.  The principal standing committees of the MSB Financial Board are the
Executive, Audit, Compensation and Nominating Committees.

     The  Executive  Committee  generally  acts  in lieu of the  full  Board  of
Directors between board meetings.  This committee is responsible for formulating
and  implementing  policy  decisions,  subject to review by the entire  Board of
Directors.  The Executive  Committee is composed of President Cook and Directors
VanElst,  Dobbins and  Schaeffer.  The  Executive  Committee did not meet during
fiscal 1999.

     The Audit  Committee  is  responsible  for the review of the  corporation's
annual audit report prepared by our independent auditors.  The review includes a
detailed discussion with the independent auditors and recommendation to the full
Board  concerning any action to be taken regarding the audit.  All  non-employee
directors  of MSB  Financial  serve on this  committee.  In  fiscal  1999,  this
committee did not meet at the holding company level;  however,  Marshall Savings
Bank's (our principal  operating  subsidiary) audit committee,  which serves the
same function and has the identical makeup, met once during fiscal 1999.

     The  Compensation  Committee  is currently  composed of  Directors  Loomis,
Mitchell,  VanElst and Yakimow.  This committee is responsible for administering
MSB  Financial's  1995 Stock Option and  Incentive  Plan,  1997 Stock Option and
Incentive  Plan and  Recognition  and Retention  Plan.  This committee met twice
during fiscal 1999.

     The  entire  Board  of  Directors  acts  as the  Nominating  Committee  for
selecting  nominees  for  election  as  directors.  Nominations  of persons  for
election to the Board of  Directors  may be made only by or at the  direction of
the Board of Directors or by any  shareholder  entitled to vote for the election
of  directors  who  complies  with  the  notice  procedures  set  forth  in  MSB
Financial's bylaws. Pursuant to our bylaws,  nominations by shareholders must be
delivered in writing to the  Secretary of MSB  Financial at least 90 days but no
more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual
meeting;  provided,  however,  that in the  event  that the  date of the  annual
meeting  is  advanced  by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 60 days from
such anniversary  date,  notice by the shareholder must be delivered not earlier
than the 120th day prior to such annual  meeting and not later than the close of
business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual  meeting or the tenth
day following  the day on which notice of the date of annual  meeting was mailed
or public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made.


                                        6





     Meetings of the Bank.  The Marshall  Savings Bank Board of Directors met 16
times during  fiscal  1999.  All of the  directors  attended at least 75% of the
Board  meetings and meetings of the  committees  on which they served during the
period they were directors.

     Director  Compensation.  The  members  of the  boards of  directors  of MSB
Financial  and Marshall  Savings  Bank are  identical.  Mr.  Cook,  the only MSB
Financial  and  Marshall  Savings  Bank  director who is also an employee of the
company and the bank,  receives no additional  compensation for his service as a
director.  The  non-employee  directors  received a $300  monthly  retainer  for
service on the MSB Financial  Board of Directors  during fiscal 1999,  plus $200
for each regular and special MSB Financial  board meeting  attended.  During the
same period,  the  non-employee  directors  received a $300 monthly retainer for
service on the Marshall  Savings Bank Board of Directors,  plus $450 (except for
the  Chairman  of the Board who  received  $500) and $250 for each  regular  and
special Marshall  Savings Bank board meeting  attended,  respectively.  Marshall
Savings Bank also paid each non-employee board member an additional $75 for each
bank board  committee  meeting  attended,  except for  attendance  at Nominating
Committee meetings for which no fees are paid.

     We  have  entered  into  deferred  fee  agreements   with  certain  of  our
non-employee directors.  Under the deferred fee arrangements,  each non-employee
director may make an annual election to defer receipt of all or a portion of his
monthly director fees received from MSB Financial and Marshall Savings Bank. The
deferred  amounts are allocated to a deferral account and credited with interest
at the rate equal to the rate on high grade  long-term  bonds.  The deferred fee
arrangements   are  unfunded,   non-qualified   agreements   which  provide  for
distribution of the amount deferred upon  retirement,  disability or a change in
control of MSB  Financial  (as those  terms are defined in such  agreements)  to
participants or their designated beneficiaries. In addition, each participant is
entitled to a death benefit payment of  approximately  $31,000,  payable monthly
over  15  years  to  designated  beneficiaries.   Life  insurance  on  the  plan
participants  has been purchased by us to fund the benefits that will be payable
under these plans.

     J. Thomas Schaeffer, a director of MSB Financial and Marshall Savings Bank,
is a partner in the law firm of Schaeffer, Meyer & MacKenzie, which firm acts as
general  counsel to Marshall  Savings  Bank.  The legal fees received by the law
firm for  professional  services  rendered to Marshall  Savings  Bank during the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1999 did not exceed 5% of the firm's gross  revenues.
Richard L. Dobbins,  a director of MSB Financial and Marshall Savings Bank, is a
partner in the law firm of Dobbins,  Beardslee & Grinage,  P.C.  Such firm acts,
from time to time, as counsel to Marshall  Savings Bank. The legal fees received
by the law firm from  professional  services  rendered to Marshall  Savings Bank
during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999 did not exceed 5% of the firm's gross
revenues.

     Non-employee  directors  also received  compensation  during fiscal 1999 of
$750 for  attendance at  educational  and training  seminars in connection  with
their service as members of Marshall Savings Bank's Board of Directors.

     Marshall  Savings  Bank pays the  premiums  on a $15,000  face  value  life
insurance  policy  on  behalf of each of the  non-employee  directors,  with the
exception of Chairman VanElst who is ineligible under the policy due to his age.
The premiums paid on such life  insurance  policy  totaled $117 in the aggregate
for fiscal 1999.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     Mr. Cook has an  employment  agreement  with  Marshall  Savings  Bank.  The
agreement  provides for an annual base salary in an amount not less than the Mr.
Cook's  current  salary and an initial term of three years.  The agreement  also
provides for annual  extensions of one year,  in addition to the  then-remaining
term  thereunder,  on each  anniversary  of the effective  date of the agreement
(i.e.,  each July 1), subject to a formal  performance  evaluation  performed by
disinterested  members  of  Marshall  Savings  Bank's  Board of  Directors.  The
agreement  terminates  upon the employee's  death,  for cause, in certain events
specified by Office of Thrift  Supervision  regulations,  or by Mr. Cook upon 90
days notice to us. For the fiscal year ended June 30,  1999,  the  disinterested
members of Marshall  Savings Bank's Board of Directors  authorized the extension
of President Cook's employment agreement for an additional year.

     The employment agreement provides for payment to Mr. Cook of the greater of
his salary for the remainder of the term of the  agreement,  or 299% of his base
compensation,  in the event there is a "change in  control" of Marshall  Savings
Bank where employment terminates involuntarily in connection with such change in
control or within twelve months thereafter.  This termination payment is subject
to reduction by the amount of all other  compensation to the employee deemed for
purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to be contingent on a
"change in  control,"  and may not exceed  three  times the  employee's  average
annual  compensation  over the most recent five year period or be non-deductible
by the Marshall  Savings Bank for federal income tax purposes.  For the purposes
of the employment agreement, a "change in control" is defined as any event which
would require the filing of an application  for acquisition of control or notice
of change in  control  pursuant  to 12 C.F.R.  ss.  574.3 or 4. Such  events are
generally  triggered  prior  to  the  acquisition  of  control  of  10%  of  MSB
Financial's  common stock.  The agreement also  guarantees  participation  in an
equitable manner in employee benefits applicable to executive personnel.

     Based on his current  compensation,  if Mr. Cook was  terminated as of June
30, 1999, under circumstances entitling him to severance pay as described above,
he would have been entitled to receive a lump sum cash payment of  approximately
$329,000.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

     We have followed a policy of granting  consumer  loans and loans secured by
the  borrower's  personal  residence to our officers,  directors and  employees.
Loans to all  officers  and  directors  must be  approved by  two-thirds  of the
disinterested  directors  and loans to  employees  must be  approved by our loan
committee.  All loans to our executive  officers and directors  were made in the
ordinary  course of business  and on the same terms and  conditions  as those of
comparable   transactions  prevailing  at  the  time,  in  accordance  with  our
underwriting  guidelines,  and do not  involve  more  than  the  normal  risk of
collectibility or present other unfavorable features.


     PROPOSAL II -- RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

     We have renewed our arrangement for Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP to be our
independent  auditors for the fiscal year ending June 30,  2000,  subject to the
ratification   of  the   appointment   by  MSB   Financial's   shareholders.   A
representative of Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP is expected to attend the annual
meeting to respond to appropriate questions and will have an opportunity to make
a statement if he or she so desires.

     THE MSB  FINANCIAL  BOARD OF DIRECTORS  RECOMMENDS  THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE
PROPOSAL  TO RATIFY THE  APPOINTMENT  OF CROWE,  CHIZEK AND  COMPANY  LLP AS MSB
FINANCIAL'S AUDITORS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2000.
