Report of Independent Auditors
The Trustees
St. Paul Federal Bank For Savings
Profit Sharing and Savings Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of St. Paul Federal Bank For Savings Profit Sharing and Savings
Plan as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of changes in
net assets available for plan benefits for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1996. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan
at December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in its net assets available for
plan benefits for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial
statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1996, and reportable
transactions for the year then ended are presented for purposes of complying
with the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and
Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and are
not a required part of the financial statements. The supplemental schedules
have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the 1996
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the 1996 financial statements taken as a whole.

DECEMBER 31, 1996
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Investments are stated at current value. Investments traded on security
exchanges are valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day
of the calendar year. Mutual funds are valued at their reported net asset
value.
The change between current value at the end of the year and current value at
the beginning of the year or cost, if the investment was acquired during the
year, is reflected as net unrealized appreciation or depreciation in current
value of investments.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Sales
are recorded using the FIFO method. Interest income is recorded on the accrual
basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires the Plan's Management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, as well as the reported amounts of income and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
St. Paul Federal Bank For Savings Profit Sharing and Savings Plan (the Plan) is
a defined-contribution profit-sharing plan for eligible employees of St. Paul
Federal Bank For Savings (the Bank) and its affiliates. The Plan is subject to
certain provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
(ERISA) and is intended to qualify as a profit-sharing and savings plan, as
described in section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended by the Tax
Reform Act of 1986.
Any employee who has completed one year of service, as defined in the Plan, is
eligible to participate. An employee must file a written notice of election
with the trustees together with an authorization for the participant
deductions. A participant must deposit at least 2% of annual compensation and
may deposit up to 15% of their annual compensation. Employees are permitted
from time to time to change their level of contributions within this range.

2. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (CONTINUED)
Board of Directors of St. Paul Bancorp, Inc. (the Company), the holding company
of the Bank, may authorize the Bank to subsidize the purchase of Company stock
by the Plan. Such authorizations are restricted in that they must comply with
applicable laws and regulations. In 1997, the Bank discontinued subsidizing
the purchase of Company stock by the Plan.
The Plan is comprised of five Investment Funds: the Money Market Fund, the U.S.
Government Bond Fund, the Equity Fund, the Small Capitalization Equity Fund,
and St. Paul Bancorp, Inc. Common Stock. Participants are periodically
permitted to direct the trustees as to respective percentages of participant
account balances and contributions to be invested in each Investment Fund.
As provided for in the Plan documents, contributions have been deposited in a
trust fund administered by First Trust Illinois, as trustee.
The balance of a participant's account that represents contributions made by
the participant is fully vested and can be withdrawn under certain conditions
after one year of participation.
Distributions from the Plan may be received upon termination of service in the
form of a lump-sum distribution. The Plan also allows for withdrawals under
certain hardship circumstances in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code.
The foregoing description of the Plan provides only general information.
Further details of the Plan are contained in the Summary Plan Description.

5. INCOME TAX STATUS
The Internal Revenue Service has ruled that the Plan qualifies under section
401 (a) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and is, therefore, not subject to
tax under present income tax laws. Once qualified, the Plan is required to
operate in conformity with the IRC to maintain its qualification. The Plan
administrator is not aware of any course of action or series of events that
have occurred that might adversely affect the Plan's qualified status.
