NOTE B - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the
quarters and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America ("generally accepted accounting principles"). Certain information and
note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in

NOTE C - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Prior to January 1, 2003, the Corporation accounted for stock-based employee

Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees", and related Interpretations, as permitted by Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS
No. 123). Effective January 1, 2003, the Corporation adopted the fair value
recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 prospectively to all employee awards
granted, modified or settled after January 1, 2003. In accordance with this
Statement, the Corporation began expensing the cost of the stock-based employee
compensation for all new employee awards granted.

The following table shows net income and earnings per share for the quarters
ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 and for the six month periods ended June 30, 2002
and 2003, as if the fair value based method had been applied to all outstanding
and unvested awards in each period.

NOTE D - CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

On June 23, 2003, the Corporation's subsidiary Westbank ("the Bank") settled its
dispute with the Massachusetts Department of Revenue ("DOR") over a change in
state law regarding tax deductions for real estate investment trust ("REIT")
dividends for 2002 and prior tax years. The financial settlement with the DOR
had no material impact on the Corporation's financial results for the quarter
ended June 30, 2003.



                                                                               8


NOTE E - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

On January 1, 2003, the Corporation adopted FASB Interpretation 45 ("FIN 45"),
"Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including
Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others." FIN 45 requires a guarantor
entity, at the inception of a guarantee covered by the measurement provisions of
the interpretation, to record a liability for the fair value of the obligation
undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The Corporation has financial and
performance letters of credit. Financial letters of credit require the
Corporation to make payment if the customer's financial condition deteriorates,
as defined in the agreements. Performance letters of credit require the
Corporation to make payments if the customer fails to perform certain
non-financial contractual obligations. The Corporation previously did not record
a liability when guaranteeing obligations, unless it became probable that the
Corporation would have to perform under the guarantee. FIN 45 applies
prospectively to guarantees the Corporation issues or modifies subsequent to
December 31, 2002. The Corporation defines the initial fair value of the letters
of credit as the fee received from the customer. The fees collected as of June
30, 2003 were immaterial. The maximum potential undiscounted amount of future
payments of letters of credit under FIN 45 as of June 30, 2003 were
approximately $203,000, of which $193,000 will expire on January 15, 2004 and
$10,000 will expire on February 13, 2004. Amounts due under these letters of
credit would be reduced by any proceeds that the Corporation would be able to
obtain in liquidating the collateral for the loans, which varies depending on
the customer. The Corporation has not recorded any contingent liabilities
related to these letters of credit.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation 46 ("FIN 46"),
"Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." FIN 46 clarifies the application
of Accounting Research Bulletin 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements", for
certain entities that do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to
finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from
other parties or in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a
controlling financial interest ("variable interest entities"). Variable interest
entities, within the scope of FIN 46, will be required to be consolidated by
their primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is determined to be the party
that absorbs a majority of the entity's expected losses, receives a majority of
its expected returns, or both. FIN 46 applies immediately to variable interest
entities created after January 31, 2003 and to variable interest entities in
which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. It applies in the first
fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003 to variable interest
entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired
before February 1, 2003. The Corporation does not anticipate FIN 46 will have a
material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

On May 15, 2003, the FASB issued Statement 150, "Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity."
Statement 150 requires the reclassification of certain financial instruments
from either equity or mezzanine presentation to liabilities and requires an
issuer of those financial statements to recognize changes in fair value of
redemption amount, as applicable, in earnings. On July 1, 2003, the Corporation
will adopt FASB Statement 150, requiring the Corporation to change the
classification of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock in the statement of
financial position from the mezzanine to liabilities. The change will not have a
material impact on the Corporation's results of operations.

                                                                               9


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
        FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 AND 2002

INFORMATION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS -

The following forward-looking statements are made in accordance with the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

The Corporation has made and may make in the future forward-looking statements
concerning future performance, including, but not limited to, future earnings
and events or conditions that may affect such future performance. These
forward-looking statements are based upon management's expectations and belief
concerning possible future developments and the potential effect of such future
developments on the Corporation. There is no assurance that such future
developments will be in accordance with management's expectations and belief or
that the effect of any future developments on the Corporation will be those
anticipated by the Corporation's management.

All assumptions that form the basis of any forward-looking statements regarding
future performance, as well as events or conditions that may affect such future
performance, are based on factors that are beyond the Corporation's ability to
control or predict with precision, including future market conditions and the
behavior of other market participants. Among the factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements are the
following:

1.       The status of the economy in general, as well as in the Corporation's
         primary market areas of western Massachusetts and northeastern
         Connecticut;

2.       The real estate market in western Massachusetts and northeastern
         Connecticut;

3.       Competition in the Corporation's primary market area from other banks,
         especially in light of continued consolidation in the New England
         banking industry;

4.       Changes in interest rates;

5.       The cost and other effects of unanticipated legal and administrative
         cases and proceedings, settlements and investigations;

6.       Changes in laws and regulations, including federal and state banking
         laws and regulations, to which the Corporation and its subsidiaries are
         subject;

7.       Changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the
         Financial Accounting Standards Board or any regulatory agency having
         authority over the Corporation and/or its subsidiaries; and

8.       Disruption in general economic conditions due to military or terrorist
         activity.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they were made. While the
Corporation periodically reassesses material trends and uncertainties affecting
the Corporation's performance in connection with its preparation of management's
discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition
contained in its quarterly and annual reports, the Corporation does not intend
to review or revise any particular forward-looking statement.

                                                                              10


SECURITIES

Securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold until
maturity are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion
of discounts. Those securities that have been identified as assets for which
there is not a positive intent to hold to maturity, including all marketable
equity securities, are classified as available for sale with unrealized gains
(losses), net of income taxes, reported as a separate component of stockholders'
equity. The Corporation determines if securities will be classified as held to
maturity or available for sale at the time of purchase. In addition, any
mortgage-backed securities created out of the Corporation's own inventory of
residential real estate loans are also considered available for sale. Gains and
losses on sales of securities are recognized in non-interest income at the time
of sale on a specific identification basis. Securities that have experienced an
other than temporary decline in fair value are written down to estimated fair
value, establishing a new cost basis with the amount of the write-down expensed
as a realized loss. The Corporation does not engage in trading activities.

Mortgage-backed securities held to maturity are stated at cost, adjusted for
amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts determined by a method that
approximates the level-yield method. Management has the positive ability and the
intent to hold these assets until maturity.


LOANS

Loans have been reduced by deferred loan fees and the allowance for loan losses.

Interest income on loans is recorded on an accrual basis. Loan origination fees,
net of certain direct loan origination costs, are deferred and recognized as
income over the life of the related loan as an adjustment to the loan's yield.

Non-accrual loans are loans on which the accrual of interest ceases when the
collection of principal or interest payments is determined to be doubtful by
management. It is the general policy of the Corporation to discontinue the
accrual of interest when principal or interest payments are delinquent ninety
(90) days, unless the loan principal and interest are determined by management
to be fully collectible and the loan is in the process of collection. Any unpaid
amounts previously accrued on these loans are reversed from income. Interest
received on a loan in non-accrual status is applied to reduce principal or, if
management determines that the principal is collectible, applied to interest on
a cash basis. A loan is returned to accrual status after the borrower has
brought the loan current and has demonstrated compliance with the loan terms for
a sufficient period, and management's doubts concerning collectibility have been
removed.

The Corporation measures impairment of loans in accordance with SFAS No. 114,
"Accounting for Impairment of a Loan", as Amended by SFAS No. 118, "Accounting
by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures"
(collectively SFAS No. 114). A loan is recognized as impaired when it is
probable that either principal or interest are not collectible in accordance
with the terms of the loan agreement. Measurement of impairment for commercial
loans is generally based on the present value of expected future cash flows
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate. Commercial real estate loans
are generally measured based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. If
the estimated fair value of the impaired loan is less than the related recorded
amount, a specific valuation allowance is established or a write-down is charged
against the allowance for loan losses. Smaller balance homogenous loans,
including residential real estate and consumer loans, are excluded from the
provisions of SFAS No. 114. Generally, income is recorded only on a cash basis
for impaired loans.

The appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses is evaluated quarterly by
management. Factors considered in evaluating the appropriateness of the
allowance include the size and concentration of the portfolio, previous loss
experience, current economic conditions and their effect on borrowers, the
financial condition of individual borrowers and the related performance of
individual loans in relation to contract terms. The provision for loan losses
charged to operating expense is based upon management's judgment of the amount
necessary to maintain the allowance at an appropriate level to absorb losses.
Management also retains an independent loan review consultant to provide advice
on the appropriateness of the loan loss allowance. Loan losses are charged
against the allowance for loan losses when management believes the
collectibility of the principal is doubtful.

Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are
carried at the lower of cost or fair value in the aggregate. There were no
mortgage loans originated and intended for sale. Net unrealized losses are
recognized through a valuation allowance charged to income as of June 30, 2003.

                                                                              11


RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS -

On January 1, 2003, the Corporation adopted FASB Interpretation 45 ("FIN 45"),
"Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including
Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others." FIN 45 requires a guarantor
entity, at the inception of a guarantee covered by the measurement provisions of
the interpretation, to record a liability for the fair value of the obligation
undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The Corporation has financial and
performance letters of credit. Financial letters of credit require the
Corporation to make payment if the customer's financial condition deteriorates,
as defined in the agreements. Performance letters of credit require the
Corporation to make payments if the customer fails to perform certain
non-financial contractual obligations. The Corporation previously did not record
a liability when guaranteeing obligations, unless it became probable that the
Corporation would have to perform under the guarantee. FIN 45 applies
prospectively to guarantees the Corporation issues or modifies subsequent to
December 31, 2002. The Corporation defines the initial fair value of the letters
of credit as the fee received from the customer. The fees collected as of June
30, 2003 were immaterial. The maximum potential undiscounted amount of future
payments of letters of credit under FIN 45 as of June 30, 2003 were
approximately $203,000, of which $193,000 will expire on January 15, 2004 and
$10,000 will expire on February 13, 2004. Amounts due under these letters of
credit would be reduced by any proceeds that the Corporation would be able to
obtain in liquidating the collateral for the loans, which varies depending on
the customer. The Corporation has not recorded any contingent liabilities
related to these letters of credit.


CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION -

Total consolidated assets amounted to $649,838,000 on June 30, 2003 compared to
$682,863,000 on December 31, 2002. As of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002,
earning assets amounted to, respectively, $604,169,000 or 93% of total assets
and $639,847,000 or 94% of total assets. Earning assets decreased during the
first six months of 2003 as a result of a decrease in loans, federal funds sold
and securities. A decrease in deposits and a decrease in borrowed funds offset
the decrease in earning assets.


CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -

For the quarter ended June 30, 2003, net income totaled $1,502,000 compared to
$1,940,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. During the second quarter of
2003, the Corporation securitized approximately $26,000,000 in residential loans
and sold another $6,500,000 of real estate loans in the secondary mortgage
market. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, net income was $3,008,000,
compared to $3,358,000 for the same period during 2002.

Non-interest income declined by $993,000 during the second quarter of 2003
compared to the second quarter of 2002. During the second quarter of 2003, the
Corporation recognized a gain on sale of securities available for sale and a
gain on sale of loans totaling $4,000 and $246,000 respectively, while other
non-interest income totaled $744,000. Included in other non-interest income is
$271,250 in write-downs of the Bank's mortgage servicing assets. During the
second quarter of 2002, the Corporation's non-interest income included $579,000
in life insurance proceeds. Non-interest expense totaled $4,229,000 for the
quarter ended June 30, 2003, an increase of $63,000 versus the second quarter of
2002.

The overall decrease in interest income reflects a decrease in volume and a
decline in interest rates on earning assets, while the decrease in interest
expense reflects a decrease in interest-bearing liabilities and a decrease in
rates as compared to the second quarter of 2002. Further analysis is provided in
sections on net interest revenue and supporting schedules.


ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES AND NON-PERFORMING ASSETS -

A decrease of $60,000 has been reflected in the allowance for loan losses at
June 30, 2003 as compared to June 30, 2002. The Corporation recorded no
provision for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 as compared to $433,000 in 2002.
Loans written off against the allowance for loan losses after recoveries
amounted to net charge-offs of $60,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2003
versus net charge-offs of $38,000 for the same period of 2002.

The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2003 totaled $5,122,000 or 1.12% of
total loans, as compared to $5,111,000 or 1.07% at December 31, 2002.

Non-performing past due loans at June 30, 2003 aggregated $1,462,000 or 0.32% of
total loans compared to $1,558,000 or 0.33% at December 31, 2002. The percentage
of non-performing and past due loans compared to total assets on those same
dates, respectively, amounted to 0.23% and 0.23%.

Management has made every effort to evaluate all circumstances known at this
time that could affect the collectibility of loans and has reflected these in
determining the provision for loan losses, the writing down of other real estate
owned and impaired loans to fair value and other loans (watch list) monitored by
management, the charge-off of loans and the balance in the allowance for loan
losses. Management believes that the provision for the quarter, and the balance
in the allowance for loan losses, are adequate based on the results of
management's loan reserve evaluation process and circumstances known at this
time.

                                                                              12


NET INTEREST INCOME

The Corporation's earning assets include a diverse portfolio of earning
instruments ranging from the Corporation's core business of loan extensions to
interest-bearing securities issued by federal, state and municipal authorities.
These earning assets are financed through a combination of interest-bearing and
interest-free sources.

Net interest income, the most significant component of earnings, is the amount
by which the interest generated by assets exceeds the interest expense on
liabilities. For analytical purposes, the interest earned on tax exempt assets
is adjusted to a "tax equivalent" basis to recognize the income tax savings that
facilitates comparison between taxable and tax exempt assets.

The Corporation analyzes its performance by utilizing the concepts of interest
rate spread and net yield on earning assets. The interest rate spread represents
the difference between the yield on earning assets and interest paid on
interest-bearing liabilities. The net yield on earning assets is the difference
between the rate of interest on earning assets and the effective rate paid on
all funds - interest-bearing liabilities, as well as interest-free sources
(primarily demand deposits and stockholders' equity).

The balances and rates derived for the analysis of net interest income presented
on the following pages reflect the consolidated assets and liabilities of the
Corporation's principal earning subsidiary, Westbank.

LIQUIDITY

The Corporation's liquidity represents the ability to meet loan commitments,
deposit withdrawals and any other cash needs as they arise. Funds to meet
liquidity needs are available by converting liquid assets or by generating new
deposits or through other funding sources. Factors affecting a bank's liquidity
needs include changes in interest rates, demand for loan products and general
economic conditions. The Corporation has alternative sources of liquidity,
including federal funds lines of credit, lines of credit available through the
Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston and repurchase agreements. Management believes
that the Corporation's level of liquidity is adequate to meet current and future
funding needs.

The approach the Corporation uses in determining the adequacy of the allowance
for loan losses is an exposure method based on the Corporation's loan loss
history. Quarterly, based on an internal review of the loan portfolio, the
Corporation identifies required reserve allocations targeted to recognized
problem loans that, in the opinion of management, have potential loss exposure
or questions relative to the depth of the collateral on these same loans. In
addition, the Corporation allocates a reserve against the remainder of the loan
portfolio, based on the overall mix of the loan portfolio and the loss history
of each loan category.
