AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS General The Corporation's total assets at June 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999, totaled $456.1 million and $418.1 million. This increase of $38.0 million was a result of an increase in loans receivable. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $3.2 million from $19.3 million at September 30, 1999, to $16.1 million at June 30, 2000. The Corporation utilized excess liquidity to fund the purchase of treasury shares and loan originations; however, the decrease was mainly a result of new loan originations. Securities available for sale decreased $334,000 between June 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999, as a result of market value changes. Securities held to maturity decreased from $47.5 million at September 30, 1999, to $46.5 million at June 30, 2000. The proceeds were used to help fund the purchase of treasury shares and pay dividends. This decrease was primarily due to $570,000 of securities maturing during the period and principal payments from mortgage-backed and related securities. Loans held for sale decreased $415,000 to $4.9 million at June 30, 2000, from $5.3 million at September 30, 1999. As of June 30, 2000, the Bank and HMC had forward commitments to sell all of their loans held for sale in the secondary market. Payments usually occur within fourteen days of funding. Loans receivable increased $42.3 million or 15.2% to $320.6 million at June 30, 2000, from $278.3 million at September 30, 1999. Total residential real estate and construction loan originations decreased by $42.2 million, and when combined with the sale and prepayments of residential mortgages, resulted in a decrease in one-to-four family residential mortgages and construction loans of $9.6 million. Agricultural and commercial business loans increased by $10.2 million and $5.4 million, respectively. To supplement originations, the Bank purchased $23.3 million of commercial business loans. The commercial loans purchased that meet the risk profile established by the Bank generally have interest rates that are based on the "Prime" rate as published in The Wall Street Journal and provide the Bank with the opportunity to continue to diversify the composition of and shorten the length of maturity of the loan portfolio. 7 The following table sets forth information on loans originated and purchased for the periods indicated: Three Months Nine Months Ended June 30, Ended June 30, --------------------------------- --------------------------------- 2000 1999 2000 1999 --------------------------------- --------------------------------- (in thousands) Loans originated: 1-4 family residential mortgages $ 13,542 $ 47,382 $ 42,825 $ 127,047 1-4 family construction loans 29,060 12,859 65,331 23,295 Land 5,622 407 6,142 2,782 Agriculture 5,886 7,941 33,616 23,450 Commercial business & real estate 5,396 2,795 14,873 9,463 Consumer 18,712 7,910 38,951 19,893 --------------------------------- --------------------------------- Total loans originated 78,218 79,294 201,738 205,930 --------------------------------- --------------------------------- Loans purchased: Construction - - - 3,400 Commercial business 11,709 16,355 23,271 22,205 --------------------------------- --------------------------------- Total loans purchased 11,709 16,355 23,271 25,605 --------------------------------- --------------------------------- Total new loans $ 89,927 $ 95,649 $ 225,009 $ 231,535 ================================= ================================= Total loans sold $ 11,823 $ 31,758 $ 41,546 $ 117,804 ================================= ================================= The following table sets forth the composition of the Bank's loan portfolio in dollars and in percentages of total loans at the dates indicated: June 30, September 30, 2000 1999 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Amount % Amount % -------------------------------------------------------------------- (dollars in thousands) Residential real estate: One-to-four family (1) $ 107,579 29.5 $ 120,884 38.8 Residential construction 65,863 18.1 42,937 13.8 Multi-family 4,835 1.3 5,635 1.8 -------------------------------------------------------------------- 178,277 48.9 169,456 54.4 Agricultural loans 43,520 11.9 33,384 10.7 Land and commercial real estate 50,521 13.9 41,295 13.2 Commercial business 27,187 7.5 24,901 8.0 -------------------------------------------------------------------- 299,505 82.2 269,036 86.3 Consumer loans: Home equity and second mortgages 27,142 7.5 24,312 7.8 Automobile loans 12,193 3.3 7,428 2.4 Other 25,403 7.0 10,898 3.5 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Total loans 364,243 100.0 311,674 100.0 ===== ===== Less: Loans in process (36,594) (26,156) Deferred fees (619) (507) Allowance for loan losses (1,515) (1,387) -------------------- -------------------- Total loans, net $ 325,515 $ 283,624 ==================== ==================== - -------------------------------------------------- 1.

No loss is expected in the disposition of this property. Deposits, after interest credited, increased from $231.7 million at September 30, 1999, to $272.6 million at June 30, 2000, an increase of $40.9 million or 17.7%. Overall cost of funds on deposits during the period increased 6 basis points as the Bank attempted to maintain deposit rates consistent with market place competitors. Demand deposits increased $2.1 million or 6.4% from September 30, 1999 when compared to June 30, 2000, and is a result of the continued diversification of the Bank's loan portfolio. Savings accounts increased 14.9% during the same periods due to increasing balances in the Bank's First Prime Savings account. Certificates of deposit increased $27.2 million. The Bank utilized the deposit growth to fund the continued loan growth. Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowing decreased $1.0 million from $141.0 million at September 30, 1999, to $140.0 million at June 30, 2000, due to principal amortization. The Corporation completed the repurchase of 371,432 shares of common stock which increased the number of treasury shares to 2,066,822 at June 30, 2000. Treasury shares are to be used for general corporate purposes, including the issuance of shares in connection with the exercise of stock options. Total stockholders' equity has decreased $2.7 million since September 30, 1999, mainly due to the stock repurchased. Book value per share increased from $16.32 at September 30, 1999, to $17.57 at June 30, 2000. Loans are reviewed on a regular basis and are placed on non-accrual status when, in the opinion of management, the collection of additional interest is doubtful. Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when either principal or interest is 90 days or more past due. Interest accrued and unpaid at the time a loan is placed on non-accrual status is charged against interest income. Subsequent payments are either applied to the outstanding principal balance or recorded as interest income, depending on the assessment of the ultimate collectibility of the loan. The following table sets forth information with respect to the Bank's non-performing assets for the periods indicated: June 30, September 30, 2000 1999 ---------------------------------------- (in thousands) Loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis: Mortgage loans: Residential construction loans $ 582 $ - Permanent loans secured by one-to-four family units 55 205 Permanent loans secured by non-residential real estate - - Other - - Non-mortgage loans: Commercial and agricultural 519 - Consumer 21 22 ---------------------------------------- Total non-accrual loans 1,177 227 Foreclosed real estate 73 323 ---------------------------------------- Total non-performing assets $ 1,250 $ 550 ======================================== Total non-performing loans to net loans 0.38% 0.08% ======================================== Total non-performing loans to total assets 0.26% 0.05% ======================================== Total non-performing assets to total assets 0.27% 0.13% ======================================== During the nine months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, approximately $57,243 and $24,000 would have been recorded on loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis if such loans had been current according to the original loan agreements for the entire period. These amounts were not included in the Bank's interest income and no interest income on loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis was included in income during any of these periods either. During the periods indicated, the Bank held no foreign loans. 9 COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 1999 The following table sets forth information with respect to the Corporation's average balance sheet, interest and dividends earned or paid and related yields and rates (dollars in thousands). Three Months Ended June 30, ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2000 1999 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest Interest Average Yields & Average Yields & Balance Interest Rates (1) Balance Interest Rates (1) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Assets: Loans receivable (2) $ 315,658 $ 7,073 8.96% $ 272,463 $ 5,586 8.20% Mortgage-backed securities 43,212 598 5.54 44,298 576 5.20 Investment securities (3) 55,140 751 5.45 93,732 1,105 4.72 ---------------------- ----------------------- Total interest earning assets 414,010 8,422 8.14 410,493 7,267 7.08 ---------------------- ---------------------- Other assets 22,541 14,083 ------------ ------------- Total assets $ 436,551 $ 424,576 ============ ============= Liabilities: Interest bearing deposits $ 251,310 $ 2,945 4.69% $ 234,512 $ 2,540 4.33% Borrowings 140,847 2,109 5.99 144,796 1,986 5.49 ---------------------- ----------------------- Total interest bearing liabilities 392,157 5,054 5.16% 379,308 4,526 4.77% ---------------------- ---------------------- Other liabilities 4,386 3,583 ------------ ------------- Total liabilities 396,543 382,891 Stockholders' equity 40,008 41,685 ------------ ------------- Total liabilities and stockholders' equity $ 436,551 $ 424,576 ============ ============= Net interest income $ 3,368 $ 2,741 Net spread (4) 2.98% 2.31% Net margin (5) 3.25 2.67 Ratio of average interest earning assets to average interest bearing liabilities 1.06X 1.08X 1. Annualized. 2. Average balances include non-accrual loans and loans held for sale. 3. Includes interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions. 4. Net spread represents the difference between the average yield on interest earning assets and the average cost of interest bearing liabilities. 5. Net margin represents net interest income as a percentage of average interest earning assets. Net Income The Corporation recorded net income of $954,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000, as compared to net income of $525,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 1999. This increase in net income was $429,000 or 81.7%. Total Interest Income Total interest income increased by $1.2 million or 16.4% to $8.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The average yield on loans increased to 8.96% for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, from 8.20% for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. During the same period, the average yield on mortgage-backed securities increased 34 basis points (100 basis points equals 1%). The average balance of investment securities decreased to $55.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, from $93.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. This decrease was the result of securities that matured, securities that were called and a reduction in the Bank's liquidity. The average yield increased from 4.72% for the three months ended June 30, 1999, to 5.45% for the same period in 2000, as excess funds or short-term investments, which provided lower yields, were deployed into other higher earning assets. 10 Total Interest Expense Total interest expense increased to $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000, from $4.5 million for the same period in 1999. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased from $234.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, to $251.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000, mainly due to an increase in certificate of deposit accounts. The average cost of deposits increased 36 basis points from 4.33% for the three month period ended June 30, 1999, to 4.69% for the same period in 2000, due to increases in the rates offered by the Bank. No assurance can be made that deposits can be maintained in the future without further increasing the cost of funds if interest rates increase. The average balance of borrowings decreased $3.9 million to $140.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000, from $144.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. The cost of such borrowings increased by 50 basis points to 5.99% for the three months ended June 30, 2000, from 5.49% for the same period in 1999. Borrowings decreased as the Bank utilized repayments of loans and the increase in deposits to meet liquidity needs. Net Interest Income Net interest income increased from $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, to $3.4 million for the same period ended June 30, 2000. Average interest-earning assets increased $3.5 million from $410.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, to $414.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000, while the average yield on those interest-earning assets increased from 7.08% for 1999 to 8.14% for 2000. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $12.9 million to $392.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000, from $379.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, while the cost of those interest-bearing liabilities increased from 4.77% in 1999 to 5.16% in 2000. Provision for Loan Losses The Corporation's provision for loan losses was $54,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000, as compared to $114,000 for the same period in 1999. During fiscal 1999, the composition of the Bank's loan portfolio changed substantially. Generally, agricultural loans, land and commercial real estate loans and commercial business loans are considered to contain a higher risk profile than single family residential mortgages. In order to account for the higher risk profile associated with the loan portfolio changes, additional provisions were utilized to help maintain reserves at adequate levels; however, the provision was reduced in fiscal 2000. The Corporation's allowance for loan losses was $1.5 million at June 30, 2000 and $1.3 million at June 30, 1999, respectively. At June 30, 2000, the Corporation's allowance for loan losses constituted 121.2% of non-performing assets as compared to 308.9% of non-performing assets at June 30, 1999. The allowance for looses on loans is maintained at a level which is considered by management to be adequate to absorb probable losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible, based on an evaluation of the collectibility of loans, prior loan loss experience and market conditions. The evaluation takes into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to pay. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charges to expense. While the Corporation maintains its allowance for losses at a level which it considers to be adequate, there can be no assurance that further additions will not be made to the loss allowances or that such losses will not exceed the estimated amounts. Non-interest Income Total non-interest income decreased $256,000 during the three month period ended June 30, 2000, to $1.1 million, as compared with the same period in 1999. Gains on loans sold decreased from $624,000 at June 30, 1999, to $246,000 at June 30, 2000, which was primarily due to rising interest rates which slowed down the purchase and refinance markets. Continued increases in interest rates may affect the ability to generate new loans. Commission income increased from $226,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999, to $294,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, while other service charges and fees decreased from $217,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, to $168,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000, as a result of reduced mortgage loan originations. Other income increased $52,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000, which was primarily due to $55,000 of income on investments in insurance policies not present in third quarter 1999. 11 Non-interest Expense Total non-interest expense decreased $250,000 or 8.0% over the periods compared. Compensation and benefits decreased from $1.8 million to $1.6 million and is partially offset by an increase in professional fees. As a result of discussions being held with the U.S. Department of Labor, the Bank may have to alter the manner in which it compensates some of its employees, which may impact compensation expense and/or the Bank's ability to generate additional loans and/or deposits. Occupancy and equipment expense decreased by $67,000. Data processing expense increased $19,000 to $179,000 for the period ended June 30, 2000, due to processing expenses associated with the increased delivery of electronic services to customers. Professional fees increased from $78,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 1999 to $112,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2000, due to outsourcing of some services related to personnel changes, additional audit requirements and the discussions with the Department of Labor. Other expenses decreased from $591,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999, to $573,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000. Income Tax Expense Income taxes increased by $252,000 or 70.4%, to $610,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2000, from $358,000 for the same period in 1999, which was primarily due to an increase of $681,000 in income before tax. The effective tax rate decreased by 1.5% for the same periods as the result of an increase in tax exempt income of $79,000.

This increase in net income was $572,000 or 27.8%. Total Interest Income Total interest income increased by $1.7 million or 7.7% to $23.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2000. The average yield on loans increased to 8.66% for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, from 8.28% for the nine months ended June 30, 1999. During the same period, the average yield on mortgage-backed securities increased 118 basis points (100 basis points equals 1%). The average balance of investment securities decreased to $57.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, from $90.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999. This decrease was a result of securities that matured, securities that were called and a reduction in the Corporation's liquidity. The average yield increased from 4.77% for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, to 5.38% for the same period in 2000, as excess funds or short-term investments, which provided lower yields, were deployed into other higher earning assets. Total Interest Expense Total interest expense increased to $14.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, from $13.8 million for the same period in 1999. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased from $233.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, to $237.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2000. The average cost of deposits increased 2 basis points from 4.43% for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, to 4.45% for the same period in 2000, due to the mix of non-certificate account balances decreasing more than certificate account balances. No assurance can be made that deposits can be maintained in the future without further increasing the cost of funds if interest rates increase. The average balance of borrowings decreased $6.2 million to $139.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, from $146.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999. The cost of such borrowings increased by 36 basis points to 5.84% for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, from 5.48% for the same period in 1999. Borrowings decreased as the Corporation utilized repayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities to meet liquidity needs. Net Interest Income Net interest income increased from $8.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, to $9.7 million for the same period ended June 30, 2000. Average interest-earning assets decreased $12.1 million, from $412.5 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, to $400.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, while the average yield on those interest-earning assets increased from 7.11% for 1999 to 7.91% for 2000. Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $1.4 million to $377.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, from $379.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, while the overall cost of those interest-bearing liabilities increased 12 basis points to 4.96%. Provision for Loan Losses The Corporation's provision for loan losses decreased to $162,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, from $342,000 for the same period in 1999. See also "Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 Provision for Loan Losses". 13 The following table sets forth information with respect to the Bank's allowance for loan losses at the dates indicated: For the Nine Months At June 30, --------------------------------------- 2000 1999 --------------------------------------- (in thousands) Total loans outstanding $ 364,243 $ 296,363 ======================================= Average loans outstanding $ 300,020 $ 274,959 ======================================= Allowance balance (beginning of period) $ 1,387 $ 1,035 ======================================= Provision (credit): Residential (1) - - Land and commercial real estate 45 20 Commercial & agricultural business 117 312 Consumer - 10 --------------------------------------- Total provision 162 342 Charge-offs: Residential - - Land and commercial real estate - - Consumer 55 124 --------------------------------------- Total charge-offs 55 124 Recoveries: Residential - - Land and commercial real estate - - Consumer 21 32 --------------------------------------- Total recoveries 21 32 --------------------------------------- Net charge-offs 34 92 --------------------------------------- Allowance balance (end of period) $ 1,515 $ 1,285 ======================================= Allowance as percent of total loans 0.42% 0.43% Net loans charged off as a percent of 0.41% 0.03% average loans - -------------------------------------------------- 1. Includes one-to-four family and multi-family residential real estate loans. Non-interest Income Total non-interest income decreased $361,000 for the nine month period ended June 30, 2000, to $3.6 million, as compared with the same period in 1999. HMC was acquired on November 17, 1998, and as a result, the consolidated statements of income reflect nine full months of income and expense for HMC in fiscal 2000 but only seven and a half months of income and expense for fiscal 1999. Gains on loans sold decreased from $1.9 million at June 30, 1999, to $838,000 at June 30, 2000, primarily due to rising interest rates which slowed down the purchase and refinance markets. Continued increases in interest rates could affect the ability to generate new loans. Commission income increased from $672,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, to $828,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2000. Other service charges and fees remained about the same for the periods compared. Other income increased $306,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, to $378,000, mainly due to $233,000 of income on investments in insurance policies not present in fiscal year 1999 and profit from the sale of property of $86,000. Non-interest Expense Total non-interest expense increased $419,000 or 5.0% over the periods compared. Compensation and benefits increased from $5.1 million to $5.2 million or 2.0%, primarily due to the acquisition of HMC. Occupancy and equipment expense increased by $58,000, largely from the HMC acquisition also. Data processing expense increased $86,000 to $510,000 for the period ended June 30, 2000, due to processing expenses associated with the increased delivery of electronic services to customers, and to a lesser extent, as a result of costs associated with the Corporation's Year 2000 readiness program. Professional fees increased from $233,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 1999 to $279,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 2000. Other expenses increased from $1.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, to $1.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, and was comprised of increased expenses as a result of the acquisition of HMC and the goodwill amortization associated with it. 14 Income Tax Expense Income taxes increased by $255,000 to $1.7 million for the nine month period ended June 30, 2000. The effective tax rate decreased by 1.5% for the same periods as the result of an increase in tax exempt income of $233,000. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Corporation's primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, principal and interest payments on loans, investments and mortgage-backed securities, sales of mortgage loans and funds provided by operations. While scheduled payments on loans, mortgage-backed securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and early loan repayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Bank is required under federal regulations to maintain certain specified levels of "liquid investments", which include certain United States Government obligations and other approved investments. Federal regulations reduced the requirement for Banks to maintain liquid assets from 5% to not less than 4% of its net withdrawable accounts plus short-term borrowings and eliminated the requirement to maintain not less than 1% of short-term liquid assets of such accounts and borrowings. The Bank's regulatory liquidity was 6.0% and 15.5% at June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The options from the previous method were used in the current period, which are more restrictive. The amount of certificate accounts which are scheduled to mature during the twelve months ending June 30, 2001, is approximately $115.9 million. To the extent that these deposits do not remain at the Bank upon maturity, the Bank believes that it can replace these funds with new deposits, excess liquidity and FHLB advances or outside borrowings. It has been the Bank's experience that substantial portions of such maturing deposits remain at the Bank. At June 30, 2000, the Bank and HMC had outstanding loan commitments of $243,000. Funds required to meet these commitments are derived primarily from current excess liquidity, loan sales, advances, deposit inflows or loan and security repayments. Regulations require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of tangible capital and leverage capital to average assets and risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets. The following table sets forth the Bank's actual capital, required capital amounts and ratios at June 30, 2000, which, at that date, exceeded the capital adequacy requirements. To Be Well Capitalized Under For Capital Prompt Corrective Actual Adequacy Purposes Action Provisions --------------------- ---------------------- --------------------- GAAP capital, June 30, 2000 $36,267 Add: Unrealized losses on debt securities held for sale 873 Less: Goodwill (2,124) ------------ Tangible equity capital and ratio to adjusted total assets 35,016 7.8% 6,777 1.5% 9,036 2.0% --------------------- ---------------------- --------------------- Tier 1 (core) capital and ratio to adjusted total assets 35,016 7.8% 18,071 4.0% 22,589 5.0% --------------------- ---------------------- --------------------- Total risk-based capital and ratio to risk-weighted assets 35,016 11.1% 12,600 4.0% 18,900 6.0% --------- ---------------------- --------------------- Tier 2 risk-based capital, net adjustments 780 ------------ Total risk-based capital and ratio to risk-weighted assets, June 30, 2000 $35,796 11.4% $ 25,200 8.0% $31,499 10.0% ===================== ====================== ===================== 15 Management believes that under current regulations, the Bank will continue to meet its minimum capital requirements in the foreseeable future. Events beyond the control of the Bank, such as increased interest rates or a downturn in the economy in areas in which the Bank operates, could adversely affect future earnings and, as a result, the ability of the Bank to meet its future minimum capital requirements. It has been the Bank's policy that employees of the Bank who hold the title of "personal banker" or "mortgage banker" are salaried employees and do not receive overtime compensation and are not required to maintain a time card (an "exempt employee"). During a routine audit of the Bank by the Department of Labor in February 2000, they did not agree with the Bank's exempt policy regarding personal bankers or mortgage bankers. As a result, for the three months ended June 30, 2000, the Company accrued approximately $16,600 in compensation and benefits expense due personal bankers. However, the Company does not agree with the Department of Labor's determination that employees who are classified as mortgage bankers should be considered a non-exempt employee and has engaged the services of outside legal counsel in an attempt to resolve this issue. Currently, costs incurred in regard to the resolution of this matter are not estimable but the Company does not believe that the costs to resolve this matter will have a material affect on the Company's financial statements. However, if the Department of Labor's position regarding classification of mortgage bankers prevails, the Company's ability to generate mortgage loans in a profitable manner may be adversely affected in the future. There were no significant changes for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, from the information presented in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 1999, concerning quantitative disclosures about market risk. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK There have been no material changes from the information regarding market risk disclosed under the heading "Asset and Liability Management" in the Corporation's Annual Report for the year ended September 30, 1999. Further, the subsidiary Bank paid a dividend to the Parent Corporation in the amount of $3.0 million in December 1999 and $3.0 million in May 2000, which reduced the Bank's regulatory capital and net portfolio value. These were used by the Corporation to purchase treasury shares and pay dividends. The following table sets forth the present value estimates of the Bank at June 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999, as calculated by its NPV Model. The table shows the NPV of the Bank under rate shock scenarios of -300 basis points to +300 basis points in increments of 100 basis points. As market rates increase, the market value of the Bank's large portfolio of mortgage loans and securities declines significantly and prepayments are slow.
