DESCRIPTION OF PENDING ACQUISITION As noted in Item 5 on page 1 herein, the Company anticipates the consummation of its acquisition of Bell on June 7, 1996. All requisite regulatory approvals have been obtained and a special meeting of Bell stockholders to consider and vote on the Merger has been scheduled for May 16, 1996. Under the terms of the definitive merger agreement between the parties dated Decemeber 14, 1995, the Company will pay approximately $354.5 million to acquire Bell. This transaction is expected to be funded through a combination of cash and cash equivalents available to the Company. The acquisition will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, under which all assets acquired and liabilities assumed are adjusted to fair value as of the of acquisition date. The aggregate core deposit premium and goodwill resulting from this acquisition is expected to range between $57.0 million and $62.0 million. The pro forma adjusting entries included in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and Income include all estimated purchase accounting adjustments, estimated overhead synergies, estimated increases in retail banking fees and charges resulting from a greater emphasis on retail banking operations in Bell's market areas, amortization of the various valuation adjustments and the procurement of $100.0 million proceeds from a contemplated medium-term debt financing by the Company, which will be invested in the Bank as an additional captial contribution. However, if no borrowing occurs by June 30, 1996, the Bank could fall slightly below the minimum levels of capital necessary to be categorized as "well-capitalized" by the federal banking agencies. See Note No. 4 herein for further discussion. If the Bank were to fall short of achieving the "well-capitalized" status, it would not be subject to any significant operating restrictions by the various regulatory agencies, since it would continue to substantially exceed minimum capital requirements. However, the rate paid in the future for deposit insurance to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") could be increased by $.03 per $100 of deposit balances until the Bank regains its well-capitalized status. All detailed information concerning the specific nature of the purchase accounting adjustments has been included in the Company's Application for Merger submitted to the OTS in February 1996. 2. FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY REFORM ISSUE Various Committees of Congress and various federal regulatory banking agencies, including the FDIC, are currently discussing changes to the federal deposit insurance system to narrow or eliminate the difference in financial characteristics between the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") and the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"). One of the proposals being discussed would, among other things, assess thrifts, such as Standard Federal and Bell Federal, a one-time fee to bring the SAIF fund into parity with the BIF fund. In the event that such a proposal was to become law after June 7, 1996, Standard Federal would be required to record a one-time charge to earnings of approximately $57.0 million, or $1.77 per share, after-tax, based on aggregate March 31, 1995 insured deposit balances of both Standard Federal and Bell Federal and a fee of 0.85% of insured deposit balances. Thereafter, the Bank's annual deposit insurance expense would be reduced for the foreseeable future by approximately 80% to 100% of current premiums. A premium reduction of this magnitude would represent annual after-tax cost savings to the Bank of approximately $11.9 million to $14.9 million (i.e., $0.37 per share to $0.46 per share), based upon the actual aggregate 1995 deposit insurance premiums incurred by Standard Federal and Bell Federal. If such a proposal is enacted during the second quarter of 1996, and the Bank recognizes this one-time charge to its earnings and, therefore, its capital as well during that quarter, the Bank could temporarily fall further below the minimum levels of capital necessary to be categorized as "well-capitalized" by the federal banking agencies as discussed in both Note No. 1 and No. 4 herein. Accordingly, the pro forma consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared on a basis which reflects $100.0 million of medium-term financing, which would further capitalize the Bank so as to remain "well-capitalized." 6 8 NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 3. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PRO FORMA ADJUSTING ENTRIES The pro forma information presented is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or the combined financial position that would have resulted had the merger been consummated at the beginning of the periods indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of the results of operations in future financial position of the combined entities. It is anticipated that the merger will be consummated on June 7, 1996. The pro forma combined financial statements do not include the anticipated earnings of Bell from December 31, 1995, through the anticipated closing date of June 7, 1996. The historical financial statements also exclude any post-closing growth in the Bell franchise. The resolution of the issue concerning the disparity in federal deposit insurance premiums discussed in detail in Note No. 2 herein is not assumed to occur prior to the June 7, 1996, closing date. Accordingly, when and if resolution occurs, the impact will be fully reflected in the Company's then-current period's results of operations. No purchase accounting recognition of this "contigent liability" within these pro forma financial statements is warranted, since this issue's outcome is neither probable of occurrence nor is its cost reasonably estimable as of the date of this filing. For purposes of this filing, the purchase price is assumed to be funded through proceeds from the sale of $160.0 million of Bell's short-term investment securities and $194.5 million of Bell's mortgage-backed securities at no gain or loss. The pro forma combined, consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, Standard Federal, Bell and Bell Federal. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The pro forma adjusting entries are displayed below (in thousands): (a) Debit - Cash $100,000 Credit-Other Borrowings $100,000 To record the procurement of medium-term financing which will be used to provide additional capital to the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Standard Federal Bank.

SUMMARY OF CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS Pursuant to the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989, the OTS has prescribed three separate minimum capital-to-assets requirements which must be met by the Bank: (1) a risk-based capital requirement that "total capital" be at least equal to 8% of "risk-weighted assets"; (2) a tangible capital requirement that "tangible capital" be at least equal to 1.5% of "adjusted total assets"; and (3) a leverage ratio requirement that "core capital" be at least equal to 3.0% of "adjusted total assets." Capital standards for thrift institutions must be "no less stringent" than those applicable to national banks. The capital standards applicable to national banks require a leverage ratio equal to 4% of adjusted assets in order for an entity to be categorized as at least being adequately capitalized. As such, the general minimum requirement of core capital at least equal to 3% of adjusted total assets, which has been de facto superseded, was applicable only to those institutions that received a composite rating of one, which is the highest rating under the "CAMEL" rating system for financial institutions, and those which were, in general, considered strong organizations having well-diversified risks, including no undue interest rate risk exposure, excellent control systems, good earnings, high asset quality and liquidity and well managed on- and off-balance sheet assets. All other thrift institutions must maintain core capital of 3% plus an additional 1% to 2%, as established by the OTS on a case-by-case basis. Therefore, the Bank believes that it is required to maintain core capital of at least 4% of adjusted total assets. The table below presents the Bank's position relative to the three current regulatory capital requirements. The Bank meets all of the capital requirements mandated by the OTS at March 31, 1996.
