                 MISSISSIPPI VIEW HOLDING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARY


              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                          DECEMBER 31, 1996 (Unaudited)


     Note 1: PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION  The unaudited  consolidated  financial
statements as of and for the three month period ended December 31, 1996, include
the accounts of Mississippi  View Holding Company (the "Company") and its wholly
owned  subsidiary  Community  Federal Savings & Loan Association of Little Falls
(the "Association"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.


     Note 2: BASIS OF PRESENTATION  General: The accompanying  unaudited interim
consolidated   financial  statements  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with
generally accepted accounting  principles for interim financial  information and
instructions per Form 10-QSB.  Accordingly,  they do not include all information
and  disclosures  required  by  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for
complete  financial   statements.   The  accompanying   consolidated   financial
statements  do not purport to contain all the  necessary  financial  disclosures
required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  that might otherwise be
necessary  in the  circumstances  and  should  be  read  with  the  fiscal  1996
consolidated  financial statements and notes of Mississippi View Holding Company
and  Subsidiary  included  in their  annual  audit  report  for the  year  ended
September 30, 1996.

     In the  opinion  of  management,  all  adjustments  (consisting  of  normal
recurring  accruals)  considered  necessary  for fair  presentations  have  been
included.  The results of operations  for the three month period ended  December
31, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the entire fiscal year or any other period.

     Reclassification:  Certain items previously reported have been reclassified
to conform with the current period's reporting format.

         Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                 for September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1996


     General.  Total assets of Mississippi View Holding Company, (the "Company")
increased by $317,968 from  September 30, 1996, to December 31, 1996.  The asset
growth  was the net  result  of  increased  loans  receivable  of  $608,380  and
increased cash equivalents of $314,250 offset by reduced  securities of $498,030
and reduced tax deferred assets of $163,903.

     Cash  and  Cash  Equivalents.  Cash  and  cash  equivalents  consisting  of
interest-bearing and noninterest bearing deposits, increased $314,250. Liquidity
increased due to maturing security investments  exceeding cash disbursements for
loan originations and deposit withdrawals.

     Securities  available for sale.  Securities  available  for sale  increased
$465,561.  Security  maturities and principal  payments reduced the portfolio by
$971,667. This decrease was offset by an increase in the mark to market value of
these  securities  of  $1,437,228  of which  $995,958 was due to an error in the
recorded number of shares of stock of the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation
(FHLMC) owned by the  Association.  The  additional  shares issued in a previous
3-for-1  stock  split were not  recorded  which  resulted in the amount of stock
owned being  understated  by 8,792 shares.  The market value  adjustment  had no
effect on net  income or  earnings  per share but did have an effect on  certain
balance  sheet  items and their  corresponding  ratios.  Any future  increase or
decrease  in the  market  value of such  securities  will  have a  corresponding
positive or negative effect on stockholders' equity.

     Securities held to maturity.  Debt and  mortgage-backed  securities held to
maturity decreased  $963,591,  or 10.37%, from $9,294,092 on September 30, 1996,
to $8,330,501 on December 31, 1996. Net debt securities of $803,972  matured and
mortgage-backed  securities  decreased  $159,619 due to principal  amortization.
These funds were used to supplement  increased  lending  activities  and deposit
withdrawals.

     Loans Held for Sale.  Loans held for sale decreased  $120,697 from $178,663
(3 loans) on September 30, 1996, to $57,966 (2 loans) on December 31, 1996. This
decrease was the result of seasonal activity.  Management's  strategy is to sell
in the secondary  market  lower-yielding  fixed rate mortgage  loans rather than
maintaining them for portfolio. These loans are pre sold in the secondary market
prior to  origination.  The balance is the amount  sold,  yet unfunded as of the
period end.

     Loans Receivable,  Net. Loans receivable increased $729,077, or 1.69%, from
$43,070,281  on September 30, 1996, to  $43,799,358  on December 31, 1996.  This
increase was due to new loan originations exceeding principal  amortizations and
loan payoffs.

     Deferred  Tax  Asset.  Deferred  tax  asset,  net of  valuation  allowance,
decreased  $163,903 during this three month period as a result of a tax deferred
liability  being  incurred  due to the  increase in the mark to market  value of
available for sale securities.

     Other Assets. Other assets increased $39,405, or 6.62%, from $595,208 as of
September  30, 1996,  to $634,613 as of December 31, 1996.  This  increase was a
result of an accrued  income tax  refund of $71,640  offset by a reduced prepaid
federal deposit insurance premium of $38,185.  

                                     Page 7





     Advances from  Borrowers for Taxes and  Insurance.  Advances from borrowers
for taxes and insurance  decreased  $88,154 from $138,530 on September 30, 1996,
to $50,376 on December 31, 1996, due to the cyclical nature of these payments.

     Other Liabilities. Other liabilities decreased by $431,047, or 47.85%, from
$900,850 on  September  30, 1996,  to $469,803 on December  31, 1996.  Decreased
liabilities  resulted from reduced loan escrow  balances for taxes and insurance
of $21,842,  payment of the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) assessment
this quarter of $362,557, and payment of accrued compensation and bonus expenses
after the fiscal year ended of $70,550. These liability decreases were offset by
a five year  pledge/commitment  of $26,250,  of which $20,250 is  outstanding at
December 31, 1996, to Unity Family  Healthcare/St.  Gabriel's Hospital,  a local
healthcare/hospital facility, for renovation and expansion.

     Stockholders' Equity. Stockholders' equity increased by $594,933, or 4.78%,
from  $12,440,245  on September 30, 1996, to  $13,035,178  on December 31, 1996.
This  increase is the net effect of the following  changes in equity:  a paid in
capital  increase of $7,504  resulting from the fair market value  adjustment to
earned and  committed to be released  Employee  Stock  Ownership  Plan  ("ESOP")
shares,  net of taxes,  and the permanent  tax/book  benefit  resulting from the
vesting of Management Stock Bonus Plan (MSBP) shares;  an increase of $14,358 as
a result of  accounting  for earned  ESOP  shares;  an  increase of $15,709 as a
result of accounting for earned MSBP shares;  an increase of $659,097  resulting
from market  valuation  adjustments on available for sale  securities  (see also
"Securities  Available for Sale");  an increase of $173,265 from net operational
income  for the three  month  period  just  ended;  and a decrease  of  $275,000
resulting from open market purchases of common stock of the Company.


           Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended
                           December 31, 1996 and 1995


     Net Income. Net income decreased  $84,343,  or 32.74%, for the three months
ended  December 31, 1996,  when compared to the three months ended  December 31,
1995.  The reduced  earnings was primarily due to decreased  noninterest  income
primarily  due to a gain on sale of loans and a  contingency  recovery  recorded
during the three months ended December 31, 1995,  both of which were not present
during the quarter ended December 31, 1996.

     Total Interest Income.  Interest income decreased $13,861,  or 1.061%, from
$1,306,798 for the three month period ended December 31, 1995, to $1,292,937 for
the three month period  ended  December  31,  1996.  Interest  income from loans
receivable  increased  $3,014 due to the increase in the average  loan  balances
along with lower rates paid on such balances over the period. Available for sale
security  investment  income increased $88,451 due to the increased average rate
of return of these  investments.  Held to maturity  investment  security  income
decreased  $105,326 due to a decrease in the average  balance of such securities
as maturities were not reinvested in such investments.

      Total Interest Expense.  Interest expense increased $12,215, or 1.96%, for
the  comparative  three month periods  ending  December 31, 1995 and 1996.  This
increase was due to transfers from a lower rate passbook to a higher rate tiered
passbook.

                                     Page 8




     Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $26,076,  or 3.81%, from
$684,718 for the three months ended December 31, 1995, to $658,642 for the three
month period ended  December 31, 1996.  This was  primarily due to the decreased
interest  income from interest  earning assets  coupled with increased  interest
expense from higher  deposit  rates.  Furthermore,  the Company's  interest rate
spread  decreased from 3.12% to 3.03% as the cost of  interest-bearing  deposits
increased at a faster rate than yields earned on interest-earning assets.

     Provision for Loan Losses. The Association currently maintains an allowance
for loan  losses  based  upon  management's  periodic  evaluation  of known  and
inherent risks in the loan portfolio,  the  Association's  past loss experience,
adverse  situations  that may affect  the  borrowers'  ability  to repay  loans,
estimated  value of the underlying  collateral,  and current and expected market
conditions.  Provisions  for loan  losses  remained  unchanged  at $0.00 for the
periods ended  December 31, 1995 and 1996.  Management's  assessment of the loan
portfolio  and market  conditions  determined  that no  provisions  needed to be
recorded at this time. While management  maintains its allowance for losses at a
level which it considers to be adequate to provide for potential  losses,  there
can be no  assurances  that  further  additions  will  not be made  to the  loss
allowances and that such losses will not exceed the estimated amounts.

     Due to the size of the institution and the minimal amount of  nonperforming
loans the  percentage of  nonperforming  loans to allowance for loan losses will
seem high.  Movement  of even one loan into or out of  nonperforming  status per
reporting period may result in a large percentage  change due to the size of the
portfolio.

     Noninterest  Income.  Noninterest income decreased by $121,102,  or 76.35%,
during the three month period ended  December 31, 1996,  as compared to the same
period ended December 31, 1995.  This decrease was primarily due to the net gain
on the sale of real estate  owned of $1,186,  a gain on sale of loans of $57,651
and a  contingency  recovery of $81,023  recorded  during the three months ended
December 31, 1995,  all of which were not present during the quarter in December
1996. In addition,  other noninterest  income reduced $1,711. The decreases were
offset by an increase in other fees and service charges of $19,929.

     Noninterest Expense.  Noninterest expense increased $26,910, or 6.53%, from
$411,910 to $438,820 during the comparative  three month periods ending December
31, 1995 and 1996, respectively. The increased noninterest expense was primarily
the result of the Association's five year  pledge/commitment of $26,250 to Unity
Family Healthcare/St.  Gabriel's Hospital, the entire amount was expensed during
the period.

     Income Tax. Income tax expense decreased $84,343,  or 32.74%, from $257,608
for the three month  period ended  December 31, 1995,  to $173,265 for the three
month period ended December 31, 1996, primarily due to decreased earnings.

                             Liquidity Resources

     The Association is required to maintain  minimum levels of liquid assets as
defined by the OTS regulations.  The OTS minimum required  liquidity ratio is 5%
and  the  minimum  short  term  liquidity  is 1%.  At  December  31,  1996,  the
Association's  total liquidity was 24.95%.  Short term liquidity at December 31,
1996,  was 16.15%.  Both levels were well in excess of regulation  requirements.
The Association  adjusts its liquidity levels in order to meet funding needs for
deposit outflows,  payment of real estate taxes from escrow accounts on mortgage
loans, loan funding commitments,  and repayment of borrowings,  when applicable.
The  Association   adjusts  it  liquidity  level  as  appropriate  to  meet  its
asset/liability objectives.

     The primary sources of funds are deposits,  amortization and prepayments of
loans  and  mortgage-backed  securities,  maturity  of  investments,  and  funds
provided from operations.  As an alternative to supplement  liquidity needs, the
Association  has the ability to borrow  from the  Federal  Home Loan Bank of Des
Moines.  Scheduled loan  amortization and maturing  investment  securities are a
relatively  predictable  source  of  funds,  however,   deposit  flow  and  loan
prepayments  are greatly  influenced  by, among other  things,  market  interest
rates,  economic  conditions  and  competition.   The  Association's  liquidity,
represented  by  cash,  cash  equivalents,  securities  (held  to  maturity  and
available for sale),  is a product of its  operating,  investing,  and financing
activities.


                   Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

     The unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements of the Company and notes
thereto, presented elsewhere herein, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP,
which requires the  measurement of financial  position and operating  results in
terms of  historical  dollars  without  considering  the change in the  relative
purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is
reflected  in the  increased  cost  of the  Company's  operations.  Unlike  most
industrial  companies,  nearly all the assets and liabilities of the Company are
financial.  As a result,  interest  rates have a greater impact on the Company's
performance  than do the  general  levels of  inflation.  Interest  rates do not
necessarily  move in the same  direction  or to the same extent as the prices of
goods and services.
