SECTION 5 - CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors;
Appointment of Principal Officers.
On July 11, 2005, Robert D. Mauch orally informed Robert C. Hamilton,
the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Home Loan Financial
Corporation, that Mr. Mauch did not wish to stand for re-election as a director
of the Corporation when his term expired at the 2005 annual meeting of
shareholders.
Mr. Mauch subsequently informed the Corporation in a written response
to the director and officer questionnaire that the Corporation had circulated in
the course of preparing the proxy statement for the 2005 annual meeting that his
decision not to stand for re-election was based on his having "different views
of operations, policies and practices of the Corporation which may/may not be
significant". A copy of the relevant question from the director and officer
questionnaire and Mr. Mauch's response is attached as exhibit 99 hereto. Issues
on which Mr. Mauch has indicated he has differing views include the decision to
take the Corporation private and aspects of the Corporation's management
succession plan, although Mr. Mauch voted to approve both the going private
transaction and the management succession plan.
Mr. Mauch is a member of the Audit Committee, which he chairs, and the
RRP and Stock Option Committees of the board of directors of the Corporation.
