And An Increased Quarterly Dividend
Newtown, Pennsylvania: TF Financial Corporation (Nasdaq National Market - THRD)

period of 2004. The Company also announced that its Board of Directors declared

aggressive and extremely creative marketing program, and the significant efforts
of our team members have helped to produce our second consecutive year of strong
core earnings and growth. Furthermore, when compared with our peers, the Company
and Third Federal Bank have again produced results that place us among the top
performers in the regional community banking industry."
