Gentlemen:

     We have completed and hereby provide an updated appraisal ("Update") of the
estimated  pro forma  market value of the common stock which is to be offered in
connection with the mutual-to-stock conversion transaction described below. This
Update is furnished pursuant to the requirements of 563b.7 and has been prepared
in accordance with the  "Guidelines  for Appraisal  Reports for the Valuation of
Savings  and  Loan  Associations   Converting  from  Mutual  to  Stock  Form  of
Organization"  ("Valuation  Guidelines")  of the  Office of  Thrift  Supervision
("OTS"),  including  the most  recent  revisions  as of October  21,  1994,  and
applicable  regulatory  interpretations  thereof.  As in the  preparation of our
original  appraisal dated August 21, 1998  ("Original  Appraisal") and the first
updated appraisal dated October 30, 1998 ("First  Update"),  we believe the data
and  information  used herein is  reliable;  however,  we cannot  guarantee  the
accuracy and completeness of such information.

Description of Reorganization
- -----------------------------

     We  understand  that  the  Board  of  Directors  of  Revere,  MHC,  Revere,
Massachusetts  (the "MHC") and the Board of Directors of Revere Federal Savings,
Revere,  Massachusetts ("Revere Federal" or the "Bank") recently adopted a stock
issuance plan.  Pursuant to the stock  issuance  plan, the Bank will  reorganize
into what is called a  "two-tier"  mutual  holding  company  structure.  It is a
two-tier  structure  because  it will have two levels of  holding  companies:  a
"mid-tier" stock holding company and a "top-tier" mutual holding company.  Under
the terms of the stock issuance  plan:  (i) the MHC will form RFS Bancorp,  Inc.
("RFS Bancorp" or the "Holding Company") as a federal corporation;  (ii) the MHC
will  contribute  100  percent of the Bank's  outstanding  stock to the  Holding
Company;  and (iii) the Holding Company will issue shares of common stock to the
public and the MHC. The number of shares of common stock sold to the public will
equal 47 percent of the shares issued in the offering,  and the number of shares
issued to the MHC will equal 53 percent of the shares issued in the offering.

     It is  anticipated  that the  public  shares  will be issued to the  Bank's
Eligible Account Holders,  the ESOP,  Supplemental  Eligible Account Holders and
Other Members. Any shares that are not sold in the Subscription  offering may be
offered in the Community offering.

     The aggregate amount of stock sold by the Holding Company cannot exceed the
appraised  value of the Bank.  Immediately  following the offering,  the primary
assets of the Holding  Company will be the capital stock of the Bank and the net
offering proceeds remaining after contributing  proceeds to the Bank in exchange
for 100  percent of the capital  stock of the Bank.  The  Holding  Company  will
contribute at least 85 percent of the net offering  proceeds in exchange for the
Bank's  capital  stock.  The  remaining net offering  proceeds,  retained at the
Holding  Company,  will be used to fund a loan to the ESOP with the remainder to
be used as general working capital.

Appraisal Update
- ----------------

     This Update  reflects the  following  noteworthy  items:  a review of stock
market  conditions since the date of the First Update,  along with updated stock
prices as of November 6, 1998. Pro forma market value is defined as the price at
which Revere  Federal's stock  immediately upon completion of the offering would
change hands between a willing buyer and a willing  seller,  neither being under
any compulsion to buy or sell and both having  reasonable  knowledge of relevant
facts.

     Our  valuation  is  not  intended,   and  must  not  be  construed,   as  a
recommendation  of any kind as to the  advisability of purchasing  shares of the
common  stock.  Moreover,  because  such  valuation  is  necessarily  based upon
estimates and  projections  of a number of matters,  all of which are subject to
change from time to time,  no  assurance  can be given that persons who purchase
shares of common stock in the offering  will  thereafter  be able to buy or sell
such shares at prices related to the foregoing valuation of the pro forma market
value thereof.  RP Financial is not a seller of securities within the meaning of
any federal and state  securities  laws and any report  prepared by RP Financial
shall not be used as an offer or  solicitation  with  respect to the purchase or
sale of any  securities.  RP Financial  maintains a policy which  prohibits  the
company,  its  principals  or  employees  from  purchasing  stock of its  client
institutions.

Discussion of Relevant Considerations
- -------------------------------------

     1.   Stock Market Conditions
          -----------------------

          In  the  short  period  since  the  date  of  the  First  Update,  the
performance  of the overall stock market has improved as stocks  generally  have
gained back ground lost in the early Fall of 1998.  The market has  continued to
respond to two successive rate cuts from the Fed and from a favorable release of
unemployment  data  during  the  most  recent  week -- both of which  have  been
interpreted by the markets  generally as being bullish for stocks.  The DJIA has
enjoyed a string  of seven  increases  out of the past 10  trading  days.  As of
November 6, 1998,  the DJIA closed at 8975.46,  an increase of 4.4 percent since
the date of the First Update. More importantly, the SNL MHC index has realized a
string of nine  increases out of the past 10 trading days, and as of November 6,
1998,  the SNL MHC index closed at 872.2,  an increase of 6.1 percent  since the
date of the First Update.

          As shown in Table 1 below,  consistent with the SNL index, the pricing
measures for all publicly-traded  SAIF-insured  thrifts increased since the date
of  the  First  Update.   Comparatively,   the  Peer  Group's  pricing  measures
(publicly-traded  MHC  institutions on a fully  converted  basis) also increased
since the date of the  First  Update.  As in the  Original  Appraisal  and First
Update,  the Peer  Group  maintained  a lower P/B  ratio  and a higher  core P/E
multiple   relative  to  the  comparative   averages  for  all   publicly-traded
SAIF-insured  thrifts.  The Peer  Group  pricing  data  shown in Table 1 reflect
implied pricing ratios on a fully-converted  basis.  Since the date of the First
Update,  18 of the Peer Group  companies had higher market prices as of November
6, 1998.

(1)  Ratios based on conversions completed for prior three months.

          The "new issue"  market is separate and  distinct  from the market for
seasoned issues like the Peer Group companies.  Accordingly, as discussed in the
Original  Appraisal and First Update,  RP Financial has considered the pro forma
pricing  and trading  level of  recently  converted  companies  in this  Update.
Between the date of the Original Appraisal and the First Update, market interest
for converting thrifts dropped considerably. Since the First Update, although no
significant new information is available regarding new issues, we concluded that
the general  increase in the Peer Group and the market overall  portends greater
interest in new issues --  warranting  a reduction  in the  discount  for market
conditions  that was  applied in the First  Update.  Since the date of the First
Update,  the two new mutual  holding  companies  (Sound  Bancorp  and West Essex
Bancorp) have increased slightly in price. However, the current market prices of
Sound Bancorp and West Essex  Bancorp  continue to trade at pro forma P/B ratios
(fully converted basis) of 67.43 percent and 63.57 percent, respectively,  which
represents  a sizeable  discount  to the Peer Group  averages  overall and which
continue to reflect the weakness in the new issue market.

Summary of Adjustments

          Substantially  all the factors  considered in this Update are the same
as the First  Update and,  accordingly,  there are no changes in the majority of
valuation  parameters.  The general  market for thrift  stocks has  increased as
indicated  by the  increase in the SNL Thrift  Index and the SNL MHC Index since
the  date of the  First  Update,  and the two  publicly  traded  mutual  holding
companies  which  have  recently  issued  stock  have also  recovered  slightly.
Accordingly,  we believe the  valuation  adjustment  for  marketing of the issue
should be

changed  from the  significant  downward  adjustment  as set  forth in the First
Update to just a moderate downward adjustment.

Effect of Government Regul. & Reg. Reform               No Adjustment                No Change


          Overall, taking into account the foregoing factors, we believe that an
increase  in  the  Bank's  valuation  ratios  on a  fully  converted  basis  are
appropriate. Our valuation conclusion continues to reflect the weaker market for
thrift  issues since the date of the Original  Appraisal  but,  also we believe,
reflects  the recent  recovery in the market for thrift  issues  since the First
Update.

Valuation Approaches
- --------------------

     In applying  the accepted  valuation  methodology  promulgated  by the OTS,
i.e., the pro forma market value  approach,  we considered the three key pricing
ratios in valuing Revere Federal's to-be-issued stock -- price/earnings ("P/E"),
price/book  ("P/B"),  and price/assets  ("P/A") approaches -- all performed on a
pro forma basis including the effects of the conversion  proceeds.  In computing
the pro forma  impact of the  conversion  and the related  pricing  ratios,  the
valuation  parameters for reinvestment rate, offering expenses and stock benefit
plan  assumptions  utilized in the Original  Appraisal  and First Update did not
change in this update.  The effective tax rate was reduced from 41 percent to 39
percent to match the offering documents. Thrift industry stock price information
is  presented  in  Exhibit  1, while the pro  assumptions  for Revere  Federal's
offering (full conversion  basis and minority  offering basis) are summarized in
Exhibits 2 and 4.

     Consistent  with the  Original  Appraisal  and First  Update,  this  Update
continues to be based primarily on fundamental  analysis  techniques  applied to
the  Peer  Group,  including  the P/E  approach,  the P/B  approach  and the P/A
approach.  Also  consistent with the First Update,  this updated  appraisal also
incorporates  a  technical  analysis of recently  completed  stock  conversions,
including  principally  the P/B  approach  which (as  discussed  in the Original
Appraisal  and First  Update) is the most  meaningful  pricing  ratio as the pro
forma P/E ratios reflect an assumed reinvestment rate and do not yet reflect the
actual use of proceeds.

     Based on the  foregoing,  we have concluded that the pro forma market value
range of Revere  Federal's  stock is subject to an  increase.  Therefore,  as of
November 6, 1998,  RP  Financial  concluded  that the pro forma  market value of
Revere Federal's stock as a mutual holding company on a fully-converted basis is
equal to

$7,500,000  which  represents  an  increase  from  the  midpoint   valuation  of
$6,250,000  concluded in the First Update.  This increase is attributable to the
increase in pricing for thrifts and MHCs generally. The change in pricing ratios
tracks  generally to the changes in the pricing ratios for the Peer Group (fully
converted basis) since the Original Appraisal. For example:

     o    P/TB  Ratios  Since  Original  Appraisal.   The  valuation  conclusion
          represents a 10.7 percent  reduction in P/TB ratios since the Original
          Appraisal  versus a  reduction  in the Peer Group  P/TB  ratios of 8.9
          percent  (from  95.14  percent  at August  21,  1998 to 86.64  percent
          currently)  and a  reduction  in the newly  converted  thrifts of 27.9
          percent  (from  91.9  percent  at  August  21,  1998 to 66.25  percent
          currently); and,

     o    P/CORE  Ratios Since  Original  Appraisal.  The  valuation  conclusion
          represents  a 10.0  percent  reduction  in  P/CORE  ratios  since  the
          Original  Appraisal versus a change in the Peer Group P/CORE ratios of
          0.6  percent  (from  20.38  times at August  21,  1998 to 20.60  times
          currently)  and a  reduction  in the newly  converted  thrifts of 23.9
          percent   (from  22.28  times  at  August  21,  1998  to  16.96  times
          currently).

     The Bank has adopted  Statement  of Position  ("SOP" 93-6) which will cause
earnings per share  computations  to be based on shares  issued and  outstanding
excluding  shares  owned by an ESOP where there is not a  commitment  to release
such  shares.  For the purpose of  preparing  the pro forma  pricing  tables and
exhibits,  we have reflected all shares issued in the offering  including shares
purchased by the ESOP as outstanding to capture the full dilutive impact of such
stock to the Bank's shareholders.  However, we have considered the impact of the
Bank's adoption of SOP 93-6 in the  determination  of Revere Federal's pro forma
value.

          1.  P/E  Approach.  In  applying  the  P/E  approach,  RP  Financial's
valuation conclusions were based on the Bank's and the Peer Group's recurring or
"core" earnings  estimates.  Revere Federal's  reported  earnings for the twelve
months  ended  September  30, 1998 equaled  $291,000.  In the First  Update,  no
adjustments  were  made to the  Bank's  reported  earnings,  and  similarly,  no
adjustments were made in this Update. Exhibit 6 provides the adjustments applied
to the Peer Group's earnings in the calculation of core earnings.

          Based on Revere Federal's  reported  earnings,  and  incorporating the
impact of the pro forma assumptions  discussed  previously,  the Bank's core P/E
multiple at the $7.500 million  midpoint value (full  conversion)  equaled 17.87
times  (versus  the  15.79  times  midpoint  valuation  in  the  First  Update).
Comparatively, the Peer Group posted an average core P/E multiple of 20.60 times
(fully  converted  basis),  which  indicated a discount  of 13.3  percent in the
Bank's core P/E multiple  (versus a discount of 20.9 percent as indicated in the
First  Update).  In addition,  the pro forma P/CORE  multiple at the midpoint of
17.87 is discounted  by just 2.4 percent  relative to the average of the current
P/CORE  multiples of Sound Bancorp and West Essex Bancorp (of 18.32  percent) as
of November 6, 1998. (We consider this discount to be reasonable in light of the
smaller,  less  liquid  nature of Revere's  offering  relative to the two recent
MHCs).  The implied  conversion  pricing  ratios  relative  to the Peer  Group's
pricing ratios are indicated in Table 3, and the updated pro forma  calculations
are detailed in Exhibits 2 and 3.

          2.  P/B  Approach.  P/B  ratios  have  generally  served  as a  useful
benchmark in the valuation of thrift  stocks,  with the greater  determinant  of
long term value being earnings.  Based on the midpoint value,  Revere  Federal's
pro forma full  conversion P/B ratio was 59.31 percent (versus the 54.13 percent
midpoint  valuation  in the First  Update).  Relative  to the  average P/B ratio
indicated for the Peer Group of 85.29 percent (fully  converted  basis),  Revere
Federal's  updated  valuation  reflected a 30.5 percent discount relative to the
Peer Group (versus the 36.2 percent  discount  applied in the First Update).  In
addition, the pro forma P/TB ratio at the

midpoint of 59.31 is  discounted  by 9.5 percent  relative to the average of the
current  trading  prices  of Sound  Bancorp  and West  Essex  Bancorp  (of 65.50
percent) as of November 6, 1998.  (We consider this discount to be reasonable in
light of the smaller,  less liquid nature of Revere's  offering  relative to the
two recent MHCs).

          3. P/A  Approach.  While  generally  less  emphasized  than the  other
pricing  ratios,  the P/A ratio is an indicator of franchise value and investors
typically place significantly  greater weight on book value and earnings. At the
$7.500  million  midpoint of the  valuation  range,  Revere  Federal's P/A ratio
equaled 7.84 percent versus the Peer Group's average P/A ratio (fully  converted
basis) of 19.51 percent.

Summary
- -------

          Based  on the  foregoing,  we have  concluded  that  Revere  Federal's
estimated pro forma market value should be increased from the level in the First
Update.  Accordingly,  it is our opinion,  as of November 6, 1998, the estimated
aggregate  pro  forma  market  value  of the  offering  shares  in a full  stock
conversion was $7,500,000 at the midpoint,  equal to 750,000 shares offered at a
per share value of $10.00.  Pursuant to  conversion  guidelines,  the 15 percent
offering range indicates a minimum  offering value of $6,375,000,  and a maximum
offering  value of  $8,625,000.  Based on the  $10.00 per share  offering  price
determined by the Board,  this valuation range equates to an offering of 637,500
shares at the minimum to 862,500  shares at the  maximum.  In the event that the
appraised  value is subject to an increase,  up to 991,875 shares may be sold in
the  offering at an issue  price of $10.00 per share,  for an  aggregate  market
value of $9,918,750, without a resolicitation.

          The Board of Directors has  established a public  offering  range such
that the public  ownership of the Holding  Company will  constitute a 47 percent
ownership  interest.  Accordingly,  the  offering  range  to the  public  of the
minority stock will range from  $2,996,250 at the minimum,  to $3,525,000 at the
midpoint,  $4,053,750 at the maximum and $4,661,812 at the  supermaximum  of the
valuation  range,  all based on a $10.00 per share offering price. The pro forma
valuation  calculations  relative to the Peer Group (fully  converted basis) are
shown in Table 3 and are  detailed  in  Exhibit 2 and  Exhibit  3; the pro forma
valuation  calculations  relative to the Peer Group based on reported financials
are shown in Table 4 and are detailed in Exhibits 4 and 5.

financial institutions.  RP Financial establishes long-term client relationships
through its wide array of services, emphasis on quality and timeliness, hands-on
involvement  by  our  principals  and  senior   consulting  staff,  and  careful

STRATEGIC AND CAPITAL PLANNING

RP Financial's  strategic and capital planning  services are designed to provide
effective workable plans with quantifiable  results.  Through a program known as
SAFE  (Strategic  Alternatives  Financial  Evaluations),  RP Financial  analyzes

Our  planning  services  involve  conducting  situation  analyses;  establishing
mission statements,  strategic goals and objectives;  and identifying strategies
for enhancement of franchise value,  capital  management and planning,  earnings
improvement and operational issues.  Strategy development typically includes the
following  areas:  capital  formation and management,  asset/liability  targets,
profitability,  return on equity  and  market  value of stock.  Our  proprietary
financial  simulation  model  provides the basis for  evaluating  the  financial
impact of alternative strategies and assessing the  feasibility/compatibility of
such strategies with regulations and/or other guidelines.

MERGER AND ACQUISITION SERVICES

RP  Financial's   merger  and  acquisition   (M&A)  services  include  targeting
candidates and potential  acquirors,  assessing  acquisition  merit,  conducting
detailed due diligence,  negotiating  and  structuring  transactions,  preparing
merger business plans and financial simulations, rendering fairness opinions and
assisting in  implementing  post-acquisition  strategies.  Through our financial
simulations,   comprehensive   in-house  data  bases,  valuation  expertise  and
regulatory  knowledge,  RP  Financial's  M&A  consulting  focuses on structuring
transactions to enhance shareholder returns.

VALUATION SERVICES

RP Financial's extensive valuation practice includes valuations for a variety of
purposes including mergers and acquisitions, mutual-to-stock conversions, ESOPs,
subsidiary   companies,   mark-to-market   transactions,   loan  and   servicing
portfolios,  non-traded  securities,  core deposits,  FAS 107 (fair market value
disclosure),  FAS 122 (loan servicing  rights) and FAS 123 (stock options).  Our
principals and staff are highly experienced in performing  valuation  appraisals
which conform with regulatory  guidelines and appraisal industry  standards.  RP
Financial is the nation's leading valuation firm for mutual-to-stock conversions
of thrift institutions.

OTHER CONSULTING SERVICES AND DATA BASES

RP Financial offers a variety of other services including branching  strategies,
feasibility studies and special research studies,  which are complemented by our
quantitative and computer skills. RP Financial's  consulting  services are aided
by  its  in-house  data  base  resources  for   commercial   banks  and  savings
institutions and proprietary valuation and financial simulation models.

YEAR 2000 SERVICES

RP Financial,  through a relationship  with a computer  research and development
company with a proprietary methodology, offers Year 2000 advisory and conversion
