Dear Shareholder:

   October 4, 1996 marked our first anniversary as a stock company.  During this
past year we have been busy and, we believe,  successful in implementing many of
the strategies to enhance shareholder value that we outlined at our first Annual
Shareholders'  Meeting last April.  

     Growth in our core savings and loan  business  resulted in loan and deposit
growth and good  earnings  this past year.  Fiscal 1996 net  earnings  were $6.1
million,  which  includes  the  effect  of a $2.5  million  one-time  assessment
recorded on September 30, 1996 to recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance
Fund and also a loss-on-sale of $1.6 million on the Association's  investment in
a U.S. federal securities mutual bond fund.

     New loan originations were approximately $135.6 million,  which resulted in
a 17.3%  increase in our total loan  portfolio.  This was  accomplished  through
competitive loan pricing,  aggressive marketing,  excellent customer service and
the  opening in March  1996 of a new  lending  office in  Redmond,  Oregon.  The
Redmond office has shown good  acceptance and we are excited about its prospects
in that  fast  growing  community.  By the new  year we hope to add to our  loan
product  mix by  introducing  a new  "Equity  Credit  Line."  

     Our  deposit  base  increased  $15.3  million or 4.0%  during the year.  We
introduced two new checking  accounts this past year: a "Basic Checking" account
for  customers  who write a limited  number  of checks  each  month and a "Small
Business  Checking" account to offer our small business customers an alternative
to the traditional  commercial  checking account. 

     In addition to taking  measures  aimed at  increasing  our core business of
deposit taking and residential  mortgage lending,  we have sought other means to
leverage our  capital.  We have  aggressively  used  borrowed  funds to purchase
investment securities with the aim of earning the difference between the cost of
the  borrowings  and the return  earned on the  investment  securities.  This is
commonly known as "wholesale  leveraging."  At September 30, 1996, we had $104.9
million in  borrowed  funds,  of which  $56.9  million  was  primarily  used for
liquidity to fund loan growth and $48.0 million was used to purchase  investment
securities.  This strategy has been successful as evidenced by a 1.23% return on
assets on these activities.  Subject to market  conditions,  we plan to continue
and expand this activity.  

     Another  shareholder  value  enhancement  strategy is our dividend  policy.
Since becoming a stock company we have paid a dividend each quarter,  increasing
from $0.05 per share in January  to $0.065 in April to our  currently  announced
level of $0.07 per share.  

     Many of our  shareholders  are aware that several  newly  converted  thrift
institutions have authorized  special "return of capital"  distributions,  which
were entirely or  substantially  tax free. In each instance that we know of, the
institution never filed a consolidated tax return,  which, under complex federal
income tax  regulations,  is a critical factor in determining  whether a special
distribution  will be taxable or not. After  extensive  analysis and discussions
with the Internal Revenue Service, we have concluded that, at this time, current
federal  income tax  regulations  effectively  preclude  a  tax-free  "return of
capital" distribution to our shareholders.  Nevertheless, the Board of Directors
will  continue  to assess the  viability  of all other  shareholder  enhancement
strategies  that suggest a  comparable  long-term  benefit to our  shareholders.


     Stock  repurchases are another element of our shareholder value enhancement
strategy that we  implemented  last year.  This past  September we completed the
repurchase of 5.07% of our  outstanding  common shares by  repurchasing  620,655
shares at an  average  price of $14.33 per share.  These  repurchases  increased
earnings per share by $0.01 and return on equity by 17 basis  points.

     The final element of our  shareholder  value  enhancement  strategy that we
discussed  at last year's  Annual  Meeting was the  expansion  of our  franchise
through the acquisition of other institutions or their branches.  We continue to
explore such  expansion  opportunities.  

     We appreciate your support.  "We'd Be Honored" if you stopped by one of our
branches to say hello or call us if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

/s/ Gerald V. Brown

        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


GENERAL                                   

     Klamath First Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), an Oregon corporation,  became
the unitary  savings and loan holding  company for Klamath First Federal Savings
and Loan Association (the "Association").
   
     The  Association  is a  traditional,  community-oriented,  savings and loan
association  that focuses on customer  service  within its primary  market area.
Accordingly,  the Association is primarily  engaged in attracting  deposits from
the general  public  through  its  offices  and using those and other  available
sources of funds to originate  permanent  residential  one- to four-family  real
estate  loans  within  its  market  area and to a lesser  extent  on  commercial
property  and  multi-family  dwellings.
   
     The Company's  profitability  depends primarily on its net interest income,
which is the difference between interest and dividend income on interest-earning
assets,  principally  loans and investment  securities,  and interest expense on
interest-bearing  deposits  and  borrowings.  Because the  Company is  primarily
dependent on net interest  income for its  earnings,  the focus of the Company's
planning  is to devise and  employ  strategies  that  provide  stable,  positive
spreads  between  the  yield  on   interest-earning   assets  and  the  cost  of
interest-bearing  liabilities  in order to  maximize  the  dollar  amount of net
interest income.  The Company's net earnings are dependent,  to a lesser extent,
on the level of its non-interest income, such as service charges and other fees,
and its  non-interest  expense,  such as  employee  compensation  and  benefits,
occupancy and equipment  expense,  deposit insurance  premiums and miscellaneous
other expenses, as well as federal and state income tax expense.
 
     The  Association is regulated by the Office of Thrift  Supervision  ("OTS")
and  its  deposits  are  insured  up to  applicable  limits  under  the  Savings
Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
("FDIC").  

     The  Association  is a member of the  Federal  Home Loan Bank  system.  The
Association conducts its business through seven office facilities,  and one loan
production  office,  with the main office located in Klamath Falls,  Oregon. The
Association  considers  its primary  market area to be the  counties of Klamath,
Deschutes and Jackson in Southern and Central Oregon.

FEDERAL LEGISLATION

     On  September  30,  1996,   the  President   signed  into  law  an  omnibus
appropriations  act (the "Act") that  includes  several  changes that affect the
Association.  The  signed  Act (i)  recapitalizes  the SAIF  through a  one-time
special  assessment;  (ii)  provides  for the  conditional  merger  of the  Bank
Insurance  Fund  ("BIF")  and the SAIF as of  January  1, 1999 into one  Deposit
Insurance  Fund  ("DIF"),  at which  time banks and  thrifts  would pay the same
deposit  insurance  premiums;  and (iii) grants financial  institutions  limited
regulatory relief.  

     With  respect to the  assessment  to  recapitalize  SAIF,  the Act requires
SAIF-insured  institutions to recapitalize  the SAIF through a one-time  special
assessment of 65.7 basis points on the SAIF deposit  assessment base, payable no
later than  November 29, 1996.  Based on the  Association's  assessment  base of
$376.4  million  at March  31,  1995,  the date  used in the Act,  the  one-time
assessment is $2.5 million and was accrued  during the quarter  ended  September
30, 1996. 

     In separate  legislation  enacted  this past year,  the  reserve  method of
accounting for thrift and bad debt reserves (including the percentage of taxable
income method) was repealed for tax years beginning after December 31, 1995. The
resulting  change in accounting  method triggers bad debt reserve  recapture for
post-1987 reserves over a six-year period,  thereby generating an additional tax
liability.  At September 30, 1996, the Association's post-1987 reserves amounted
to $3.8  million.  Pre-1988  reserves  would only be subject to recapture if the
institution fails to qualify as a thrift. A special provision suspends recapture
of  post-1987  reserves  for  up to  two  years  if,  during  those  years,  the
institution  satisfies a "residential loan  requirement."  Notwithstanding  this
special provision,  however,  recapture would be required to begin no later than
the first taxable year beginning after December 31, 1997.

CHANGE IN INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

     On May 21, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors, at the recommendation of
the Audit  Committee,  terminated  the  engagement  of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP and
engaged  Deloitte & Touche LLP, as the  Company's  auditors.  

     The report of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP on the Company's  financial  statements
for either of the last two fiscal years  preceding the date of  termination  did
not contain an adverse  opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified
or modified as to  uncertainty,  audit scope, or accounting  principles,  except
that the report of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP dated  November 3, 1995 with respect to
the  Company's  financial  statements at September 30, 1994 and 1995 and for the
three years in the period ended  September 30, 1995  disclosed  that the Company
changed  its method of  accounting  for certain  investments  in debt and equity
securities and its method of accounting for income taxes in fiscal 1994 to adopt
the provisions of Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standard ("SFAS") No. 115,
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities", and SFAS No.
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", respectively.

     During the Company's two most recent  fiscal years and  subsequent  interim
periods  preceding the date of the  termination  of the  engagement of KPMG Peat
Marwick LLP, the company was not in  disagreement  with KPMG Peat Marwick LLP on
any  matter  of  accounting   principles  or  practices,   financial   statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement,  if not resolved
to the  satisfaction  of KPMG Peat  Marwick  LLP,  would have  caused  KPMG Peat
Marwick LLP to make  reference  to the  subject  matter of the  disagreement  in
connection with its report. 

     The Company  had not  consulted  with  Deloitte & Touche LLP during its two
most recent fiscal years nor during any  subsequent  interim period prior to its
engagement  regarding the  application  of accounting  principles to a specified
transaction,  either  completed or proposed,  or the type of audit  opinion that
might be rendered on the Company's financial statements.

ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT AND INTEREST RATE RISK

     The ability to maximize net interest  income is largely  dependent upon the
achievement  of a positive  interest  rate spread that can be  sustained  during
fluctuations  in  prevailing  interest  rates.  Interest rate  sensitivity  is a
measure  of the  difference  between  amounts  of  interest-earning  assets  and
interest-bearing  liabilities  which  either  reprice  or mature  within a given
period of time. The difference,  or the interest rate repricing "gap",  provides
an indication of the extent to which an institution's  interest rate spread will
be affected by changes in interest rates. A gap is considered  positive when the
amount of  interest-rate  sensitive  assets exceeds the amount of  interest-rate
sensitive   liabilities,   and  is  considered   negative  when  the  amount  of
interest-rate   sensitive   liabilities  exceeds  the  amount  of  interest-rate
sensitive  assets.  Generally,  during a period  of  rising  interest  rates,  a
negative  gap  within  shorter  maturities  would  result in a  decrease  in net
interest  income.  Conversely,  during a period of  falling  interest  rates,  a
negative  gap within  shorter  maturities  would  result in an  increase  in net
interest income.  

     At September 30, 1996,  the  Association's  one-year  cumulative  gap was a
negative  25.88% of total assets compared to a negative 1.07% of total assets at
September 30, 1995 and a negative  30.05% at September  30, 1994.  The September
30,  1995  one-year  cumulative  gap was  unusually  low  and was a  substantial
improvement  for the Company  compared to prior years.  This was a result of the
subscription  funds from the initial stock  offering being invested in overnight
funds,  or for gap, the less than  one-year  repricing  period.  The  cumulative
one-year  gap has  remained  improved.  


                                       11


     The Association  continues to primarily  originate  fixed rate  residential
loans for its  portfolio.  In an effort to reduce its exposure to interest  rate
risk,  the  Association  has:  (i)  purchased  adjustable  rate  mortgage-backed
securities,  (ii) placed greater emphasis on the origination of  adjustable-rate
residential loans, and (iii) emphasized longer term fixed rate deposits. We will
continue to explore opportunities in these areas.



The following table sets forth certain historical information relating to the Company's
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that are estimated to mature or
are scheduled to reprice within one year.

INTEREST SENSITIVITY GAP ANALYSIS

The following table presents the difference between the Company's  interest-earning  assets and interest-bearing  liabilities within
specified  maturities at September 30, 1996. This table does not necessarily  indicate the impact of general interest rate movements
on the Company's net interest  income  because the repricing of certain assets and  liabilities is subject to competitive  and other
limitations.  As a result, certain assets and liabilities indicated as maturing or otherwise repricing within a stated period may in
fact mature or reprice at different times and at different volumes.

     Certain  shortcomings  are inherent in gap  analysis  that may result in an
institution  with  a  nominally  negative  gap  having  interest  rate  behavior
associated  with a  positive  gap.  For  example,  although  certain  assets and
liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing,  they may react
in different degrees to changes in market interest rates.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company  generates cash through  operating  activities,  primarily as a
result of net  income.  The  adjustments  to  reconcile  net  income to net cash
provided by operations during the periods presented  consisted  primarily of the
provision for loan losses,  depreciation and amortization expense,  amortization
of deferred  loan  origination  fees,  increases or decreases in various  escrow
accounts and increases or decreases in other assets and liabilities. The primary
investing  activity of the  Association  is  lending,  which is funded with cash
provided  from  operations  and financing  activities,  as well as proceeds from
amortization  and  prepayments on existing loans and mortgage backed and related
securities  and proceeds from  maturities of other  investment  securities.  For
additional information about cash flows from operating,  financing and investing
activities,  see the  Consolidated  Statements  of Cash  Flows  included  in the
Consolidated Financial Statements.

     The  Association  is  required  under  applicable  federal  regulations  to
maintain  specified  levels of "liquid"  investments in qualifying types of U.S.
Government, federal agency and other investments having maturities of five years
or less.  Current OTS regulations  require that a savings  association  maintain
liquid  assets  of not less  than  5.00% of its  average  daily  balance  of net
withdrawable  deposit  accounts and  borrowings  payable in one year or less, of
which short-term liquid assets must consist of not less than 1.00%. At September
30, 1996, the  Association's  regulatory  liquidity,  as measured for regulatory
purposes,  was  10.47%.  

     Under  capital  standards  mandated by the  Financial  Institution  Reform,
Recovery,  and Enforcement  Act, the Association must have: (i) tangible capital
equal to 1.5% of  adjusted  total  assets,  (ii) core  capital  equal to 3.0% of
adjusted  total  assets,  and (iii) total  risk-based  capital  equal to 8.0% of
risk-weighted  assets.  At September 30, 1996, the Association was in compliance
with  all  regulatory  capital  requirements  effective  as of such  date,  with
tangible,  core and risk-based capital of 19.2%, 19.2% and 42.4%,  respectively.
(See Note 15 To Consolidated Financial Statements). 

                                 ASSET QUALITY

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS

     At  September  30,  1996,  the ratio of  non-performing  assets  (including
non-accrual loans,  accruing loans greater than 90 days delinquent,  real estate
owned and other  repossessed  assets) to total assets was .04%. The  Association
intends to seek to maintain asset quality by continuing its focus on one-to-four
family  lending.  However,  in its  efforts  to expand  and  diversify  its loan
portfolio,  the Association  intends to evaluate other available lending options
such as credit cards,  equity lines of credit, and other consumer loan products.
In doing this,  the  Association  will  evaluate the trade off  associated  with
planned loan growth and the greater  credit risk  associated  with such forms of
lending.
                                       14


CLASSIFIED ASSETS

     The Association has established a  Classification  of Assets Committee that
meets at least  quarterly  to approve  and develop  action  plans to resolve the
problems  associated  with  the  assets,  to  review   recommendations  for  new
classifications,  and to make any changes in present classifications, as well as
making  recommendations  for  the  adequacy  of  reserves.  

     In accordance with  regulatory  requirements,  the Association  reviews and
classifies  on a regular  basis,  and as  appropriate,  its  assets as  "special
mention",  "substandard",  "doubtful" and "loss". In 1996 the  Classification of
Assets Committee  changed its  classification of asset categories to include the
more common classification category Special Mention. In the past the Association
included  what  normally  was  considered  Special  Mention  in the  Substandard
category. However, to conform to the more common practice, the assets previously
classified   Substandard  are  now  classified  as  either  Special  Mention  or
Substandard  per  the  category's   definitions.   All  non-accrual   loans  and
non-performing assets are included in classified assets.



The following  table sets forth at the dates indicated the amounts of classified
assets:

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

     The Association has established a systematic  methodology for determination
of provisions for loan losses.  The  methodology is set forth in a formal policy
and takes into consideration the need for an overall general valuation allowance
as well as specific allowances that are tied to individual loans.  Provision for
loan losses are recorded based on the Association's evaluation of specific loans
in its  portfolio,  historical  loan loss  experience,  the  volume  and type of
lending, general economic conditions and the existing level of the Association's
allowance for loan losses.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AND 1996.

GENERAL

     Net  earnings  increased  $500,000  or 8.9% from $5.6  million for the year
ended September 30, 1995, to $6.1 million for the year ended September 30, 1996.
This increase was attributable to several factors. Net interest income increased
$7.7 million or 52.4% from $14.7  million for the year ended  September 30, 1995
to $22.4  million for the year ended  September  30,  1996.  This  increase  was
primarily attributable to an increase in total average  interest-earning  assets
from $453.2 at September 30, 1995 to $613.2 at September 30, 1996.  The increase
in net  interest  income was  partially  offset by an increase  in  non-interest
expense of $6.2 million or 103.3% from $6.0 million for the year ended September
30, 1995 to $12.2 million for the year ended  September 30, 1996.  This increase
is primarily  attributable to a $1.7 million  increase in compensation  expense,
due  largely to the  Employee  Stock  Option  Plan  ("ESOP"),  the $2.5  million
BIF/SAIF  assessment,  and the  $1.6  million  loss  on  sale  of an  investment
subsequent to year end.

INTEREST INCOME

     Additional  interest  income  generated by the $146.4  million  increase in
average interest  earning assets  contributed to an increase of $10.5 million or
29.9% from $35.1 million for the year ended  September 30, 1995 to $45.6 million
for the year  ended  September  30,  1996.  Of this  increase,  $5.1  million is
attributable to additional  loan income due to an increase in loans  receivable.
The increase in loans  receivable  was primarily a result of strong new purchase
loan originations  exceeding loan refinancing which resulted in greater net loan
growth  for  1996.  

     The  remaining  increase  of $5.4  million  was a result of  investing  the
proceeds  of the stock sale and  borrowings  in 30 year  adjustable  rate agency
mortgage  backed  securities  ("MBS"),  fixed rate U.S.  agency  securities with
maturities of less than five years,  fixed and adjustable  corporate  securities
and overnight  funds.  The average  balance of  investments  increased by $101.2
million for the year ended  September  30,  1996  compared  with the  comparable
period in 1995.

INTEREST EXPENSE

     Interest  expense  increased  $2.8 million due to increases in deposits and
borrowings.  Interest  expense on deposits  increased  $1.0 million or 5.2% from
$19.3  million for the year ended  September  30, 1995 to $20.3  million for the
year ended  September 30, 1996.  Total deposits  increased by $15.3 million from
September  30, 1995 to September  30,  1996,  and the average  interest  paid on
interest-bearing  deposits  increased  22 basis  points  from 4.99% for the year
ended  September 30, 1995 to 5.21% for the year ended  September 30, 1996.  This
increase was a result of the  increased  pricing  competition  in the  Company's
market  area.  Interest  expense on  borrowings  increased  $1.9  million due to
increased  borrowings  of $84.9  million.  The Company will  continue to rely on
borrowings  to fund  loan  growth as long as we can  borrow  at lower  rates for
comparable maturities than required to attract similar structured deposits.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

     The  provision  for loan losses was $120,000  with no  recoveries or charge
offs during the year ended  September  30, 1996  compared to $120,000 and charge
offs of $67,000 during the year ended  September 30, 1995, for a net increase in
provision  for the year of $120,000.  At September  30, 1996,  the allowance for
loan losses was equal to 356.9% of  non-performing  assets compared to 106.6% at
September 30, 1995.  The increase in the coverage ratio at year end 1996 was the
result of a decrease in non-accrual  loans which were foreclosed and sold during
the year.

                                       19

NON-INTEREST INCOME

     Non-interest  income  increased  $141,000 or 37.0% to $522,000 for the year
ended  September 30, 1996 from  $381,000 for the year ended  September 30, 1995.
The increase was attributable to increases in fees and service charges and other
income, as a result of increased loan activity,  ATM fees and service charges on
checking accounts.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

     Non-interest  expense increased $6.2 million, or 103.3%, for the year ended
September  30,  1996,  from a total of $6.0  million for the prior year to $12.2
million for the year ended  September 30, 1996. Of this  increase,  $2.5 million
was  attributable  to  the  BIF/SAIF  special   assessment,   $1.6  million  was
attributable  to the loss on sale of an  investment  subsequent to year end, and
$1.7 million is attributable to an increase in compensation expense. Of the $1.7
million  increase in compensation  expense,  $1.4 million is due to compensation
expense  associated with the ESOP. The ratio of non-interest  expense to average
total  assets was 1.99% and 1.29% for the years  ended  September  30,  1996 and
1995, respectively.

INCOME TAXES

     The  provision for income taxes  increased  $1.0 million for the year ended
September 30, 1996 compared with the prior year, primarily as a result of higher
pretax earnings.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1994 AND 1995

GENERAL

     Earnings  decreased  $580,000 or 9.4%, from $6.2 million for the year ended
September 30, 1994 to $5.6 million for the year ended September 30, 1995, before
the  cumulative  effect of a change in method of accounting for income taxes due
to the  adoption of SFAS No. 109 on October 1, 1993.  This  decrease  was mainly
attributable  to a decrease in interest  rate spread from 3.4% at September  30,
1994 to 2.7% at  September  30,  1995  which  resulted  in net  interest  income
decreasing by $1.2 million, or 7.5%. 

     Net earnings  increased  $286,000,  or 5.4%, from $5.3 million for the year
ended  September 30, 1994 to $5.6 million for the year ended  September 30, 1995
in the absence of the prior year's $866,000  cumulative  effect of the change in
method of accounting for income taxes. The additional reasons for the changes in
net earnings are discussed more specifically below.

INTEREST INCOME

     The additional  interest income  generated by the $43.0 million increase in
average balance of loans  receivable in 1995 over the prior year slightly offset
the 23 basis point  decrease in loan yield from the prior year to produce a $2.6
million increase in interest income from loans. The increase in loans receivable
was  primarily a result of strong loan  demand and less loan  refinancing  which
resulted in greater net loan growth for 1995 despite less loan  production.  The
decrease  in loan  yield  was  primarily  a result of the  refinancing  to lower
yielding  loans over the  previous  year while  rates were still  declining  and
initiating an adjustable rate program this year  emphasizing  rates below market
rates  (teaser  rates) to  generate  adjustable  rate loan  volume.  

                                       20

     The average balance of investment  securities  decreased by $4.9 million in
1995  compared  with 1994. A 34 basis point  increase in the yield on investment
securities from the prior year did not offset the decrease in volume,  resulting
in a $172,000 decrease in interest income from investment  securities.  Interest
income on federal funds sold increased $401,845 in 1995 from 1994 as a result of
investing  the  proceeds  of the stock  sale  during  the  subscription  period.
Investment  securities  include an investment of $12.6 million in a U.S. Federal
securities  mutual bond fund  classified  as  available  for sale. A decrease in
interest rates during 1995 resulted in increasing the carrying value of the U.S.
Federal securities mutual bond fund at September 30, 1995 by $382,000.

INTEREST EXPENSE

     Savings deposit interest expense  increased $2.9 million for the year ended
September 30, 1995 as compared to the  comparable  period in 1994.  The increase
was  attributable to a $20.8 million increase in the average balance of deposits
during this period, which can be primarily attributed to the increase in savings
account activity during the stock sale subscription period. The weighted average
rate paid on deposits increased 51 basis points from 4.46% during the year ended
September 30, 1994 to 4.97% during the year ended  September  30, 1995.  Average
FHLB advances  outstanding during this period were $15.3 million with a weighted
average rate of 6.21%.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

     The  provision  for loan losses was  $120,000,  recoveries  were zero,  and
charge offs were $67,000  during the year ended  September  30, 1995 compared to
$150,000 and charge offs of $23,000  during the year ended  September  30, 1994,
for a net increase in provision for the year of $53,000.  At September 30, 1995,
the  allowance  for loan  losses was equal to 106.60% of  non-performing  assets
compared to 311.98% at September 30, 1994. The decrease in the coverage ratio at
year end 1995 was the result of foreclosure  proceedings  initiated  against two
properties,  which  totalled  $445,343  of the  total  non-performing  assets of
$758,000.  No losses are  expected on these loans as the loans are well  secured
with an estimated value of $745,000, or an excess loan to value of $299,657.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

     Non-interest  income increased  $29,000,  or 8.2%, to $381,000 for the year
ended  September 30, 1995 from  $352,000 for the year ended  September 30, 1994.
The increase was mainly  attributable to increased  income from the sale of real
estate owned.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

     Non-interest  expense  decreased  $30,000,  or  0.5%,  for the  year  ended
September  30, 1995,  from a total of $6.03  million for the prior year to $6.00
million for the year ended  September 30, 1995. Of this  decrease,  $200,000 was
attributable  to a  decrease  in  compensation  and  benefit  expense  in  1995,
primarily  reflecting certain one-time increased bonus payments to employees and
increased fees paid to directors in the prior year. This was partially offset by
an  increase  in SAIF  insurance  premiums,  primarily  as a result of growth in
deposits,  costs  incident to greater loan volume and  increased  occupancy  and
personnel  expenses as a result of the new Klamath  Falls,  Oregon  branch.  The
ratio of  non-interest  expense to average  total assets was 1.43% and 1.29% for
the years ended September 30, 1994 and 1995, respectively

                                       21


INCOME TAXES

     Effective  October  1, 1993,  the  Association  adopted  SFAS No. 109 which
requires a change from the  deferred  method of  accounting  for income taxes of
Accounting  Principles Board ("APB") No. 11 to the asset and liability method of
accounting for income taxes.  The  implementation  of SFAS No. 109 decreased net
earnings by $866,000 for the year ended  September  30, 1994.  

     The  provision  for  income  taxes  decreased  $517,000  for the year ended
September 30, 1995 compared with the prior year,  primarily as a result of lower
pretax earnings.

     Any dividend  payments by the Company are subject to the sole discretion of
the Board of Directors and depend primarily on the ability of the Association to
pay dividends to the Company at least annually.  Under Federal regulations,  the
dollar amount of dividends a federal savings  association may pay depends on the
Association's capital surplus position and recent net income.  Generally,  if an
association satisfies its regulatory capital requirements,  it may make dividend
payments  up  to  the  limits  prescribed  in  the  OTS  regulations.   However,
institutions  that have converted to the stock form of ownership may not declare
or pay a dividend  on, or  repurchase  any of,  its  common  stock if the effect
thereof  would cause the  regulatory  capital of the  institution  to be reduced
below the amount required for the  liquidation  account which was established in
accordance  with OTS regulations and the  Association's  Plan of Conversion.  In
addition,  earnings of the  Association  appropriated  to bad debt  reserves and
deducted for federal  income tax purposes are not  available for payment of cash
dividends  without  payment  of  taxes  at the  then  current  tax  rate  by the
Association on the amount removed from the reserves for such distributions.  The
Association  does  not  contemplate  any  distributions  that  would  limit  the
Association's bad debt deduction or create federal tax liabilities.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles  of  Consolidation  

     The accompanying  consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Klamath  First  Bancorp,  Inc.  (the  Company) and its  wholly-owned  subsidiary
Klamath  First  Federal  Savings and Loan  Association  (the  Association).  The
Company became the holding  company of the  Association  upon  conversion of the
Association from a federally-chartered  mutual savings and loan association to a
federally-chartered  capital stock savings and loan association  (Note 11). This
transaction  has  been  accounted  for in a  manner  similar  to a  "pooling  of
interests" in accordance with APB Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations."

     The Company's consolidated financial statements also include the assets and
liabilities of First Service  Corporation  of Southern  Oregon ("FSC") which was
wholly-owned  by the  Association.  As of July  31,  1996,  FSC  was  officially
liquidated  into the  Association.  All  significant  intercompany  balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation for September 30, 1995.

Nature of Operations

     The Company and subsidiary provide banking and limited nonbanking  services
to its  customers  who are located  principally  in the  Klamath,  Jackson,  and
Deschutes  counties of Southern and Central  Oregon.  These  services  primarily
include  attracting  deposits  from the  general  public and using  such  funds,
together  with  other  borrowings,  to  invest in  various  real  estate  loans,
investment securities, and mortgage backed and related securities.

Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management to make  assumptions that
result in  estimates  that  affect the  reported  amounts of certain  assets and
liabilities  and disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of related revenue and expense
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment Securities

     The  Company  has  adopted  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards
("SFAS")  No.  115,  "Accounting  for  Certain  Investments  in Debt and  Equity
Securities". Under this pronouncement, securities held to maturity are stated at
cost only if the  Company  has the  positive  intent and the ability to hold the
securities to maturity.  Securities  available for sale, including mutual funds,
and trading  securities  are stated at fair value.  Realized gains and losses on
the sale of  securities,  recognized  on a specific  identification  basis,  and
valuation adjustments of trading account securities are included in non-interest
income or expense.  Net unrealized  gains or losses on securities  available for
sale are  included as a component of  shareholders'  equity,  net of tax,  until
realized. Unrealized losses on securities resulting from an other than temporary
decline in the fair value are recognized in earnings when incurred.

     During   December  1995,  the  Association   reclassified   $27,171,074  of
investment  securities and $1,717,890 of mortgage backed and related  securities
from held to maturity to  available  for sale at fair  values,  with  unrealized
gains and losses of $200,508 and $100,421,  respectively.  The  reclassification
was made in accordance  with the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board ("FASB")
special report,  "A Guide to  Implementation  of Statement 115 on Accounting for
Certain  Investments in Debt and Equity  Securities",  that permitted a one-time
reassessment  of the  appropriateness  of the held to  maturity  classification,
without  affecting  the  classification  of the  remaining  securities  held  to
maturity.

Stock Investments

     The Company  held stock in the  Federal  Home Loan Bank  ("FHLB")  and U.S.
Federal  securities  mutual  bond fund at  September  30,  1996 and 1995.  These
investments are carried at the lower of cost or fair value.


                                       34


Provision for Loan Losses

     Allowances for losses on specific problem real estate loans and real estate
owned are  charged to  earnings  when it is  determined  that the value of these
loans and properties, in the judgment of management, is impaired. In addition to
specific reserves, the Company also maintains general provisions for loan losses
based on evaluating  known and inherent risks in the loan  portfolio,  including
management's  continuing  analysis of the factors  underlying the quality of the
loan portfolio. These factors include changes in the size and composition of the
loan portfolio,  actual loan loss experience,  current and anticipated  economic
conditions,  detailed analysis of individual loans for which full collectibility
may not be assured,  and  determination of the existence and realizable value of
the  collateral and  guarantees  securing the loans.  The reserve is an estimate
based upon factors and trends  identified by  management  at the time  financial
statements are prepared. The ultimate recovery of loans is susceptible to future
market  factors  beyond  the  Company's  control,  which may result in losses or
recoveries  differing  significantly  from those  provided  in the  consolidated
financial statements.  In addition,  various regulatory agencies, as an integral
part of their examination  process,  periodically review the Company's valuation
allowances on loans and real estate owned. 

     Delinquent  interest on loans past due 90 days or more is charged off or an
allowance  established  by a charge to income equal to all  interest  previously
accrued and interest is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments
are  received  until  delinquent  interest is paid in full and, in  management's
judgment,  the  borrower's  ability  to make  periodic  interest  and  principal
payments  is back to  normal,  in which  case the loan is  returned  to  accrual
status.  

     Effective October 1, 1995, the Company adopted SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan", as amended by SFAS No. 118,  "Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan-Income  Recognition and  Disclosures."  These
statements address the disclosure  requirements and allocations of the allowance
for credit losses for certain  impaired  loans. A loan within the scope of these
statements is considered impaired when, based on current information and events,
it is  probable  that a  creditor  will be unable to  collect  all  amounts  due
according to the contractual  terms of the loan agreement,  including  scheduled
interest payments.

     When a loan has  been  identified  as being  impaired,  the  amount  of the
impairment  is  measured  by using  discounted  cash  flows,  except  when it is
determined  that the sole source of repayment  for the loan is the  operation or
liquidation of the underlying  collateral.  In such case, the current fair value
of the  collateral,  reduced by costs to sell, is used.  When the measurement of
the impaired loan is less than the recorded  investment  in the loan  (including
accrued  interest,  net deferred loan fees or costs, and unamortized  premium or
discount), an impairment is recognized by creating or adjusting an allocation of
the allowance for credit losses.  SFAS No. 114, as amended,  does not change the
timing of charge-offs of loans to reflect the amount  ultimately  expected to be
collected. At September 30, 1996, the Company had no loans deemed to be impaired
as defined by SFAS 114.

Depreciation of Premises and Equipment

     Premises and equipment are depreciated on the straight-line  basis over the
estimated  useful lives of the various  classes of assets from their  respective
dates of acquisition.

Taxes on Income

     The Company has adopted SFAS No. 109,  "Accounting for Income Taxes", which
caused a cumulative  effect of $866,518 in the September  30, 1994  consolidated
statement of  earnings.  Under the asset and  liability  method of SFAS No. 109,
deferred  tax  assets  and   liabilities  are  recognized  for  the  future  tax
consequences   attributable  to  differences  between  the  financial  statement
carrying  amounts of existing assets and  liabilities  and their  respective tax
bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
expected  to apply to  taxable  income  in the  years in which  those  temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Loan Origination Fees

     Loan origination fees and direct costs are deferred and recognized over the
contractual  lives of the related  loans as an  adjustment  of the loans'  yield
using the level-yield method.


                                       35


Unearned Discounts

     Loan discounts are accreted to income over the average lives of the related
loans using the level-yield interest method, adjusted for estimated prepayments.

Real Estate Owned

     Property  acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure is carried
at the lower of  estimated  fair value,  less  estimated  costs to sell,  or the
balance of the loan on the  property at date of  acquisition,  not to exceed net
realizable  value.  Costs,  excluding  interest,  relating to the improvement of
property are  capitalized,  whereas  those  relating to holding the property are
charged to expense.

Pension Cost

     It is Company policy to fund retirement  costs accrued.  All such costs are
computed on the basis of accepted actuarial  methods.  

Earnings Per Common Share

     Earnings per common share is computed  based on weighted  average number of
shares of common stock and common stock  equivalents  assumed to be  outstanding
during the period.  Earnings per common share were not  calculated for September
30, 1995, as no shares were outstanding during the year. (Note 11).

Cash Equivalents

     Cash  equivalents  are  considered  to be cash held as demand  deposits  at
various banks and regulatory agencies. In the consolidated financial statements,
"cash and due from banks",  "interest  bearing cash deposits" and "Federal funds
sold" are considered to be cash equivalents.

(2) Cash and Due from Banks

     The Company is required to  maintain an average  reserve  balance  with the
Federal  Reserve Bank, or maintain such reserve balance in the form of cash. The
amount of this required reserve balance was approximately  $475,000 and $469,000
at September  30, 1996 and 1995,  respectively,  and was met by holding cash and
maintaining an average  balance with the Federal  Reserve Bank in excess of this
amount.

and held to maturity are summarized by type and maturity as follows:

     Deferred  income  taxes for the years  ended  September  30,  1996 and 1995
reflect  the impact of  "temporary  differences"  between  amounts of assets and
liabilities for financial reporting purposes and such amounts as measured by tax
laws. 



The tax effects of temporary  differences which give rise to a significant
portion of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are as follows:

     The company has created a valuation  allowance  arising  from the  realized
loss on the U.S. Federal  securities  mutual bond fund of $648,837  offsetting a
deferred tax asset as of September 30, 1996 because management  believes that it
is more likely  than not that the tax asset will not be  realized  by  available
carrybacks,  offsetting  future taxable income from reversing  taxable temporary
differences,  and anticipated  future investment  gains.  There was no valuation
allowance at September 30, 1995. 

     The Company has qualified under  provisions of the Internal Revenue Code to
compute  federal  income  taxes after  deductions  of  additions to the bad debt
reserves.  At September 30, 1996, the Company had a taxable temporary difference
of  approximately  $10,486,000  that arose before 1988  (base-year  amount).  In
accordance  with  SFAS No.  109,  a  deferred  tax  liability  of  approximately
$3,824,000 has not been recognized for the temporary difference. Management does
not expect this temporary difference to reverse in the foreseeable future.

(11) Shareholders' Equity

     The Company was  incorporated  under Oregon law in June 1995 to acquire and
hold all of the  outstanding  capital stock of the  Association,  as part of the
Association's  conversion  from a  federally-chartered  mutual  savings and loan
association. In connection with the conversion, which was consummated on October
4, 1995,  the Company  issued and sold  12,233,125  shares of common  stock (par
value of $.01 per share) at a price of $10.00  per share for net total  proceeds
of $119,352,984  after conversion  expenses of $2,978,266.  The Company retained
one-half of the net proceeds and used the remaining net proceeds to purchase the
newly issued capital stock of the  Association.  The net conversion  proceeds of
$119,352,984  and  over  subscription  proceeds  of  $65,685,300  were  held  in
withdrawable  accounts at the  Association at September 30, 1995.  Since,  among
other things,  all required  regulatory  approvals to consummate  the conversion
were received prior to September 30, 1995, the conversion has been accounted for
as being  effective as of September 30, 1995,  with the net conversion  offering
proceeds of  $119,352,984  shown on the  statement  of  shareholders'  equity as
proceeds  from the sale of common stock and stock  oversubscription  proceeds of
$65,685,300  recorded  as  a  liability.  The  oversubscription   proceeds  were
refunded, with accrued interest, on October 4, 1995.

     Subsequent  to the  ratification  of the  adoption  of the 1996  Management
Recognition  and  Development  Plan  ("MRDP") at the annual  meeting on April 9,
1996,  489,325  shares of stock were  purchased  in the open market at a cost of
$6.7  million,  to be held in trust  for  future  allocation  to  management  in
accordance with the terms of the MRDP.

     During  September  1996,  the Board of  Directors  approved and the Company
engaged in a stock repurchase  program and retirement of 620,655 shares or 5.07%
of the common stock.  

     The Association may not declare or pay cash dividends if the effect thereof
would  reduce  its  regulatory   capital  below  the  amount  required  for  the
liquidation account discussed below. 

     At the  time of  conversion,  the  Association  established  a  liquidation
account in an amount  equal to its retained  earnings as of June 30,  1995,  the
date of the latest statement of financial condition used in the final conversion
prospectus.  The  liquidation  account  will be  maintained  for the  benefit of
eligible withdrawable account holders who have maintained their deposit accounts
in the Association after conversion.  In the event of a complete  liquidation of
the  Association  (and  only in such an  event),  eligible  depositors  who have
continued to maintain  accounts will be entitled to receive a distribution  from
the  liquidation  account  before any  liquidation  may be made with  respect to
common stock. 

     The Company's  Articles of Incorporation  authorize the issuance of 500,000
shares of preferred  stock,  having a par value of $.01 per share, in series and
to fix and state the powers,  designations,  preferences  and relative rights of
the shares of such series, and the qualifications,  limitations and restrictions
thereof.

(12) Employee Benefit Plans

Employee  Retirement  Plan 

     The  Company  is a member  of a  multiple-employer  trusteed  pension  plan
("Plan")  covering  all  employees  with one  year of  service  and pays  direct
pensions to certain retired employees. Pension expense of $198,000, $185,000 and
$120,000 was incurred  during the years ended September 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.  Separate actuarial valuations, including computed value of vested
benefits,  are not made with respect to each contributing  employer, nor are the
plan  assets  so  segregated  by  the  trustee.  The  Plan  had  an  over-funded
accumulated benefit of approximately $385 million at June 30, 1996.

Director Deferred Compensation Plan

     The Company  also has an  unfunded  supplemental  benefits  plan to provide
members  of the  Board  of  Directors  with  supplemental  retirement  benefits.
Supplemental  benefits  are based on monthly fees  approved by the  Compensation
Committee of the Board.  Pension costs  recognized for the years ended September
30, 1996, 1995 and 1994 were $71,053, $70,020 and $0 respectively.  At September
30, 1996 and 1995, the projected  benefit  obligation was $668,088 and $616,035,
respectively. 


                                       48


Management Recognition and Development Plan ("MRDP")

     In  February  1996,  the Board of  Directors  approved  a MRDP plan for the
benefit of officers and  non-employee  directors  which  authorizes the grant of
489,325 common stock shares. The MRDP was approved by the Company's shareholders
on April 9, 1996.  Those  eligible to receive  benefits  under the MRDP plan are
determined by members of a committee  appointed by the Board of Directors of the
Company.  MRDP  awards  vest  over a  five-year  period  in  equal  installments
beginning on April 9, 1997 (the first  anniversary  of the effective date of the
MRDP) or upon the participant's death or disability.  The Company will recognize
compensation  expense in the  amount of the fair  value of the  common  stock in
accordance  with the vesting  schedule  during the years in which the shares are
payable.  There were no shares  vested  under the plan at  September  30,  1996.
Accordingly, the Company recognized no compensation expense for the MRDP for the
year ended September 30, 1996.

Stock Option Plan

     In  February  1996,  the Board of  Directors  adopted a Stock  Option  Plan
("Stock  Plan") for the benefit of certain  employees and  directors.  The Stock
Plan was approved by the Company's  shareholders  on April 9, 1996.  The maximum
number of common  shares  which may be issued  under the Stock Plan is 1,223,313
shares with a maximum  term of ten years for each option from the date of grant.
The initial awards were granted on April 9, 1996 at the fair value of the common
stock on that date ($13.125). All initial awards vest in equal installments over
a five year period from the grant date and expire  during  April 2006.  Unvested
options become immediately  exercisable in the event of death or disability.  No
options had vested or were exercised as of the year ended September 30, 1996.

(13) Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP")

     As part of the conversion discussed in note 11, an ESOP was established for
all employees  that are age 21 or older and have  completed two years of service
with the Company.  The ESOP  borrowed  $9,786,500  from the Company and used the
funds to purchase  978,650  shares of the common stock of the Company  issued in
the  conversion.  The  loan  will  be  repaid  principally  from  the  Company's
discretionary contributions to the ESOP over a period of ten years. The loan had
an  outstanding  balance of $8,807,850  and $9,786,500 at September 30, 1996 and
1995,  respectively,  and an interest rate of 8.75%.  The loan obligation of the
ESOP is considered  unearned  compensation and, as such, recorded as a reduction
of the Company's shareholders' equity. Both the loan obligation and the unearned
compensation  are  reduced  by the amount of loan  repayments  made by the ESOP.
Shares  purchased  with the loan  proceeds  are held in a suspense  account  for
allocation among  participants as the loan is repaid.  Contributions to the ESOP
and shares released from the suspense  account are allocated among  participants
on the  basis of  compensation  in the year of  allocation.  Benefits  are fully
vested at all times under the ESOP.  Forfeitures  are  reallocated  to remaining
plan  participants and may reduce the Company's  contributions.  Benefits may be
payable upon retirement,  death,  disability,  or separation from service. Since
the Company's annual contributions are discretionary, benefits payable under the
ESOP cannot be  estimated.  Compensation  expense is recognized to the extent of
the fair  value  of  shares  committed  to be  released.  The  Company  recorded
compensation  expense  under the ESOP of $1.4  million  and 97,865  shares  were
allocated among the participants in 1996.

     Financial assets and financial  liabilities other than securities are not traded in active markets.  The above
estimates of fair value require subjective  judgments and are approximate.  Changes in the following  methodologies
and assumptions could  significantly  affect the estimates.  These estimates may also vary  significantly  from the
amounts that could be realized in actual transactions.

Financial Assets

     The estimated fair value  approximates  the book value of cash,  interest  bearing cash accounts,  and federal
funds sold. For securities,  the fair value is based on quoted market prices.  The fair value of loans is estimated
by  discounting  future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made. The fair value of FHLB
stock approximates the book value.



                                       50


Financial Liabilities

     The estimated fair value of savings deposits, FHLB advances, and short term
borrowings  are  estimated by  discounting  the future cash flows using  current
rates at which similar  deposits,  FHLB advances and short term borrowings would
be made.


Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

     Off-balance  sheet  financial  instruments  are limited to  commitments  to
originate  mortgage loans.  Fair value considers the difference  between current
levels of interest rates and committed  rates.  See note 16 to the  consolidated
financial  statements.  

     The  Company  did not  hold any  derivative  financial  instruments  in its
investment  portfolio at or during the years ended September 30, 1996,  1995, or
1994.

(15) Regulatory Capital Requirements

     The  Company is not subject to any  regulatory  capital  requirements.  The
Association  however,  is  subject to various  regulatory  capital  requirements
administered  by the  Office  of Thrift  Supervision  ("OTS").  Failure  to meet
minimum  capital  requirements  can  initiate  certain  mandatory  and  possibly
additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a
direct material effect on the Association's financial statements.  Under capital
adequacy  guidelines and the regulatory  framework for prompt corrective action,
the Association must meet specific capital guidelines that involve  quantitative
measures of the Association's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet
items as calculated under regulatory  accounting  practices.  The  Association's
capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative  judgments by
the  regulators  about   components,   risk   weightings,   and  other  factors.

     Quantitative  measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Association to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier
I capital  to  risk-weighted  assets,  of Tier I capital  to total  assets,  and
tangible  capital to tangible assets (set forth in the table below).  Management
believes that the Association  meets all capital adequacy  requirements to which
it is subject as of September 30, 1996.

     As of  September  30,  1996,  the  most  recent  notification  from the OTS
categorized the Association as "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework
for prompt  corrective  action.  To be  categorized as "well  capitalized",  the
Association must maintain minimum total risk-based,  Tier I risk-based, and Tier
I leverage  ratios as set forth in the table.  There are no conditions or events
since that notification that management  believes have changed the institution's
category.

The Association's actual and required minimum capital ratios are presented in the following table:

     On August 23, 1993, the OTS issued a regulation which would add an interest
rate risk component to the risk-based  capital standards (the "final IRR rule").
Institutions  with a greater than normal  interest  rate risk  exposure  will be
required  to take a deduction  from the total  capital  available  to meet their
risk-based  capital  requirement.  That  deduction  is equal to  one-half of the
difference  between the  institution's  actual measured  exposure and the normal
level of exposure as defined by the  regulation.  Although no such deduction was
required as a result of the Association's most recent regulatory examination,  a
deduction may be required as a result of future examinations. The final IRR rule
has been  postponed and it is not  practicable  to determine when it will become
effective.  

     At  periodic   intervals,   the  OTS  and  the  Federal  Deposit  Insurance
Corporation  ("FDIC") routinely examine the Association as part of their legally
prescribed  oversight of the thrift industry.  Based on these examinations,  the
regulators can direct that the Association's financial statements be adjusted in
accordance  with their  findings.  A future  examination  by the OTS or the FDIC
could include a review of certain  transactions or other amounts reported in the
Association's  1996 financial  statements.  In view of the uncertain  regulatory
environment in which the Association now operates,  the extent, if any, to which
a forthcoming regulatory examination may ultimately result in adjustments to the
1996 financial statements cannot presently be determined. 

     On September 30, 1996, the United States  Congress passed and the President
signed into law the omnibus appropriations package, including the Bank Insurance
Fund/Savings  Association  Insurance Fund  ("BIF/SAIF")  and  Regulatory  Burden
Relief packages.  Included in this legislation is a requirement for SAIF-insured
institutions to recapitalize  the SAIF insurance fund through a one-time special
assessment  to be paid  within  60  days of the  first  of the  month  following
enactment.  The FDIC is charged with the ultimate  responsibility of determining
the specific  assessment amount which is 65.7 basis points of the March 31, 1995
SAIF deposit  assessment  base. As the  Association is insured by the SAIF, this
assessment resulted in a pre-tax charge to non-interest  expense for the quarter
ending  September  30,  1996 of $2.5  million  based on the March 31,  1995 SAIF
deposit assessment base of $376.4 million.

(16) Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Concentrations of 
     Credit Risk

     The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk
in the normal course of business to meet the financing  needs of its  customers.
These financial  instruments generally include commitments to originate mortgage
loans.  Those instruments  involve,  to varying degrees,  elements of credit and
interest rate risk in excess of the amount  recognized in the balance sheet. The
Company's  maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the
borrower is  represented by the  contractual  amount of those  instruments.  The
Company  uses the same  credit  policies  in making  commitments  as it does for
on-balance-sheet  instruments.  Commitments to extend credit are  conditional 60
day  agreements to lend to a customer  subject to the Company's  usual terms and
conditions.  

     At  September  30,  1996,  loan   commitments   amounted  to  approximately
$10,840,110,   comprised  of  a  $146,000  variable  rate  loan  at  6.00%,  and
$10,694,110 in fixed rate loans ranging from 7.00% to 10.875%.  At September 30,
1995, loan commitments  amounted to $7,967,473,  comprised of a $31,000 variable
rate loan at 6.38%,  and  $7,936,473  in fixed rate loans  ranging from 7.00% to
9.75%.  

     The  Company  originates  residential  real  estate  loans and, to a lesser
extent,  commercial  real estate and  consumer  loans.  Over 95% of the mortgage
loans in the  Association's  portfolio  are  secured  by  properties  located in
Klamath, Jackson and Deschutes counties in Southern and Central Oregon.

(18) Recently Issued Accounting Standards 

     In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123,  "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation",  which applies to all  transactions  in which an entity  acquires
goods or services by issuing  equity  instruments  or by  incurring  liabilities
where the payment amounts are based on the entity's  common stock price,  except
for employee stock ownership plans (ESOP's).  The SFAS covers  transactions with
employees and  non-employees  and is  applicable  to both public and  non-public
entities.

     SFAS No. 123 requires that, except for transactions with employees that are
within  the scope of APB  Opinion  No. 25, all  transactions  in which  goods or
services are the consideration  received for the issuance of equity  instruments
are to be accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or
the fair value of the  equity  instrument  issued,  whichever  is more  reliably
measurable.   However,   it  also  allows  an  entity  to  continue  to  measure
compensation  costs for those plans using the  intrinsic  value based  method of
accounting  prescribed  by APB Opinion No. 25,  "Accounting  for Stock Issued to
Employees." Entities electing to follow the accounting methods in Opinion No. 25
must make pro forma  disclosures  of net income and, if presented,  earnings per
share,  as if the fair value method of  accounting  defined in the statement had
been applied.

     SFAS No. 123 will apply to the Company for the year  ending  September  30,
1997.  The Company has not yet  determined  which method it will adopt.  

     In June 1996,  FASB issued  SFAS No. 125,  "Accounting  for  Transfers  and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities".  SFAS No. 125
is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments
of  liabilities  occurring  after  December  31,  1996,  and  is to  be  applied
prospectively.

     SFAS No. 125 provides  accounting and reporting standards for transfers and
servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities.  The standards
are based on  consistent  application  of a  financial-components  approach that
focuses on control. Under the approach, after a transfer of financial assets, an
entity  recognizes  the  financial  and  servicing  assets it  controls  and the
liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when control has been
surrendered,  and  derecognizes  liabilities  when  extinguished.  SFAS No.  125
provides consistent  standards for distinguishing  transfers of financial assets
that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings.  

     The  Company  plans to  implement  SFAS No.  125 on  January  1, 1997 which
complies with the required date of  implementation.  The Company does not expect
implementation to have a material impact on the Company's  financial position or
results of operations.
