                           PHSB FINANCIAL CORPORATION

                        GUIDELINES FOR REGISTERING STOCK

     For reasons of clarity and standardization, the stock transfer industry has
developed  uniform  stockholder  registrations  which  we  will  utilize  in the
issuance of your PHSB Financial  Corporation stock  certificate(s).  If you have
any questions, please consult your legal advisor.

     Stock ownership must be registered in one of the following manners:

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

INDIVIDUAL     Avoid the use of two  initials.  Include  the first  given  name,
               middle  initial and last name of the  stockholder.  Omit words of
               limitation that do not affect  ownership  rights such as "special
               account," "single man," "personal property," etc.

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

JOINT          Joint  ownership  of  stock  by  two or  more  persons  shall  be
               inscribed on the  certificate  with one of the following types of
               joint ownership.  Names should be joined by "and," do not connect
               with "or".  Omit titles such as "Mrs.," "Dr.," etc. JOINT TENANTS
               Joint  Tenancy with Right of  Survivorship  and not as Tenants in
               Common may be  specified  to identify  two or more  owners  where
               ownership  is intended  to pass  automatically  to the  surviving
               tenant(s).  TENANTS IN COMMON  Tenants in common may be specified
               to identify two or more  owners.  When stock is held in a tenancy
               in  common,  upon the death of one  co-tenant,  ownership  of the
               stock will be held by the surviving co-tenant(s) and by the heirs
               of the deceased co-tenant. All parties must agree to the transfer
               or sale of shares held in this form of ownership.

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

UNIFORM        Stock may be held in the name of a  custodian  for a minor  under
TRANSFORM      the Uniform Gifts to Minors laws of the individual states.  There
TO MINORS      may be only one  custodian  and one minor  designated  on a stock
               certificate.  The standard  abbreviation  of custodian is "CUST,"
               while  the   description   "Uniform   Gifts  to  Minors  Act"  is
               abbreviated  "UNIF GIFT MIN ACT."  Standard U.S.  Postal  Service
               state  abbreviations  should be used to describe the  appropriate
               state.  For  example,  stock  held  by John P.  Jones  under  the
               Delaware Uniform Gifts to Minors Act will be abbreviated.

                      JOHN P. JONES CUST SUSAN A. JONES
                      UNIF GIFT MIN ACT

                      * If a corporation, list the corporate  title.
                      * If an individual and a corporation, list the

                      *   Trustee
                      *   Personal Representative
                      *   Custodian
                  3.  The type of  document  governing  the  fiduciary

                      either under a form of living trust agreement or
                      pursuant  to a court  order.  Without a document
                      establishing  a  fiduciary  relationship,   your
                      stock  may  not  be  registered  in a  fiduciary
                      capacity.
                  4.  The date of document governing the relationship.
                      The date of the document need not be used in the

                           The name of the maker, donor or testator
                                       or

member or a person  associated with a NASD member has a beneficial  interest.  I

equity;  (7) A downturn  in the local  economy  and  increased  competition  may
