         The shares  represented by this  certificate  are issued subject to all
the  provisions of the  Certificate  of  Incorporation  and Bylaws of Wyman Park
Bancorporation, Inc. (the "Corporation") as from time to time amended (copies of
which are on file at the principal executive offices of the Corporation).

         The  Corporation's   Certificate  of  Incorporation  provides  that  no
"person" (as defined in the  Certificate  of  Incorporation)  who  "beneficially
owns" (as defined in the Certificate of  Incorporation)  in excess of 10% of the
outstanding  shares of the Corporation shall be entitled to vote any shares held
in excess of such limit.  This  provision of the  Certificate  of  Incorporation
shall  not  apply to an  acquisition  of  securities  of the  Corporation  by an
employee stock purchase plan or other employee  benefit plan of the  Corporation
or any of its subsidiaries.

         The  Corporation's   Certificate  of  Incorporation   also  includes  a
provision the general effect of which is to require the affirmative  vote of the
holders of 80% of the  outstanding  voting shares of the  Corporation to approve
certain "business combinations" (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation)
between  the  Corporation  and a  stockholder  owning  in  excess  of 10% of the
outstanding shares of the Corporation.  However,  only the affirmative vote of a
majority of the outstanding  shares or such vote as is otherwise required by law
(rather  than  the 80%  voting  requirement)  is  applicable  to the  particular
transaction if it is approved by a majority of the "disinterested directors" (as
defined in the Certificate of Incorporation) or, alternatively,  the transaction
satisfies certain minimum price and procedural  requirements.  The Corporation's
Certificate  of  Incorporation  also  contains a provision  which  requires  the
affirmative vote of holders of at least 80% of the outstanding  voting shares of
the Corporation which are not beneficially owned by the "interested  person" (as
defined in the Certificate of  Incorporation)  to approve the direct or indirect
purchase or other  acquisition by the  Corporation of any "equity  security" (as
defined in the Certificate of Incorporation) from such interested person.

         The  Corporation  will  furnish to any  stockholder  upon  request  and
without charge a full  statement of the powers,  designations,  preferences  and
relative  participating,  optional or other  special  rights of each  authorized
class  of  stock  or  series  thereof  and the  qualifications,  limitations  or
restrictions of such preferences and/or rights, to the extent that the same have
been fixed, and of the authority of the board of directors to designate the same
with respect to other series.  Such request may be made to the Corporation or to
its Transfer Agent and Registrar.
