NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING
POLICIES

NATURE OF OPERATIONS
     FirstFederal Financial Services Corp ("The Corporation") conducts its
principal activities through its banking and non-banking subsidiaries with 29
banking offices located throughout north central Ohio and non-banking facilities
in Ohio, Indiana and Virginia doing business in 42 states. Principal activities
include commercial and retail banking, investment services and brokering and
servicing manufactured housing finance contracts.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of FirstFederal
Financial Services Corp and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain prior period data has
been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.
     The preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial
Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

SECURITIES
     Securities are classified as held to maturity, available for sale or
trading. Only those securities classified as held to maturity, and which
management has the intent and ability to hold to maturity, are reported at
amortized cost. Available for sale and trading securities are reported at fair
value with unrealized gains and losses, net of related deferred income taxes,
included in shareholders' equity or income, respectively. The cost of securities
sold is based on the specific identification method.
     Other short term investments consist primarily of interest bearing deposits
with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (FHLB).

LOANS AND LEASES
     Interest income on loans is based on the principal balance outstanding. The
accrual of interest for commercial, construction and mortgage loans is
discontinued when there is a clear indication that the borrower's cash flow may
not be sufficient to meet payments as they become due. Such loans are also
placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest is past due ninety days
or more, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. When
a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, all previously accrued and unpaid
interest is reversed against income. A loan remains on non-accrual status until
the loan is current as to payment of both principal and interest, and/or the
borrower demonstrates the ability to pay and remain current.
     Direct loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan
origination costs are deferred and the net amount amortized over the estimated
life of the related loans or commitments as a yield adjustment. Net deferred
loan fees or costs related to loans paid off or sold are included in income at
the time of sale.
     Income on direct financing leases is recognized on a basis to achieve a
constant periodic rate of return on the outstanding investment.
     Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future
cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rates or the fair value
of the underlying collateral. Impaired loans have been defined as all nonaccrual
loans.
     Loans held for sale are valued at the lower of aggregate cost or market
value as determined by outstanding commitments from investors or current
investor yield requirements and were $86,955,000 and $88,982,000 at December 31,
1997 and 1996 respectively. The Corporation has commitments to sell residential
mortgage loans held for sale in the secondary market. Gains and losses on
residential mortgage loans sold are recorded at the time of the sale and are
recognized as mortgage banking income. Mortgage servicing rights associated with
mortgage loans originated and sold, where servicing is retained, are capitalized
and amortized over the period of net revenue. The carrying value of such rights
is subject to periodic adjustment based upon changing market conditions.
     The Corporation adopted the provisions of SFAS 125, "Accounting and
Reporting for transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of
Liabilities," on January 1, 1997, which provides accounting and reporting
standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities. SFAS 125 is based on consistent application of a
financial-components approach that focuses on control. Under the
financial-components approach, the Corporation recognizes the financial and
servicing asset it controls and the liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes
financial assets when control has been surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities
when extinguished. SFAS 125 also provides consistent standards for
distinguishing transfers of financial assets that are secured borrowings.
     The Corporation records an asset upon sale or securitization of loans with
servicing retained and allocates the total cost of loans to the servicing rights
and the loans based on their relative fair values. The resulting servicing
rights are amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net
servicing revenues. Servicing rights are assessed for impairment recognized
through a valuation allowance. For purposes of measuring impairment, the rights
are stratified based on interest rate and original maturity.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
     The allowance is maintained at a level management considers to be adequate
to absorb potential loan and lease losses. Credit losses are charged and
recoveries are credited to the allowance. Provisions for credit losses are based
on management's review of the historical credit loss experience and such other
factors which, in management's judgement, deserve consideration under existing
economic conditions in estimating potential credit losses.

PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT
     Premises and equipment, including leasehold improvements, are stated at
cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed on
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.
Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed on the straight-line method
over the lives of the related leases or useful lives of the related assets,
whichever is shorter. Maintenance, repairs and minor improvements are charged to
operating expenses as incurred.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS
     Intangible assets, primarily premiums on purchased deposits, are amortized
on a straight-line basis generally over a period of up to 15 years. Management
reviews intangible assets for possible impairment if there is a significant
event that detrimentally affects operations. Impairment is measured using
estimates of the future earnings potential of the entity or assets acquired.
Amortization of intangible assets was $1.7 million and $1.1 million in 1997 and
1996, respectively.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
     The Corporation has entered into interest rate swap agreements to achieve a
lower aggregate borrowing cost on certain fixed-rate long-term borrowings. Net
interest expense resulting from the differential between exchanging fixed-rate
and floating interest payments is recorded on an accrual basis as an adjustment
to the interest expense of the associated liability.
     The Corporation periodically hedges the value of manufactured housing loans
held for sale to mitigate the impact on the change

                               Exhibit 13, Page 6

<PAGE>   7



in value on sale of loans due to future fluctuations in interest rates. The
contracts are designated as hedges, with gains and losses recorded as basis
adjustments to loans held for sale.
      The Corporation does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments
for trading purposes.

NET INCOME PER SHARE
     Earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income for the period by
the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the
period. The assumed conversion of convertible preferred stock and the exercise
of stock options is included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share.
     SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," was adopted for 1997 with all
prior-period earnings per share data restated. The statement requires dual
presentation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share on the
Consolidated Statements of Income.

STOCK DIVIDEND
     The Corporation's board of directors approved a 25% stock dividend in April
1997 and 10% stock dividend on both May 22, 1996 and May 22, 1995. The
consolidated financial statements, notes and other references to share and per
share data have been retroactively restated for the stock dividends.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
    SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," was adopted January
1, 1996 and encourages, but does not require, adoption of a fair-value-based
accounting method for employee stock-based compensation arrangements. The
Corporation has elected to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No.
25 and provide the pro forma disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123.

ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
     SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" was issued in June 1997 and
is effective for fiscal years beginnings after December 15, 1997. The statement
requires additional reporting of items that affect comprehensive income but not
net income. Examples relevant to the Corporation include unrealized gains and
losses on securities available for sale. This statement will result in
additional financial statement disclosures upon adoption.
     SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," was issued in June 1997 and is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1997. The statement requires financial disclosure
and descriptive information about reportable operating segments. This statement
may result in additional financial statement disclosures upon adoption, however
the Corporation does not expect to make material changes to its current segment
groupings.

     Retained earnings at December 31, 1997 includes approximately $3.6 million
in allocations of earnings for bad debt deductions of a former thrift subsidiary
for which no income tax has been provided. Under current tax law, if the
Corporation's subsidiary uses this bad debt reserve for purposes other than to
absorb bad debt losses or if it no longer qualifies as a bank or merges into a
non-bank entity, the bad debt reserve will be subject to federal income tax at
the current corporate rate.

NOTE 9 - MANUFACTURED HOUSING INCOME
     The Corporation, through its subsidiary Mobile Consultants, Inc. (MCi), has
sold certain manufactured housing finance contracts (MHF contracts) to various
financial institutions while retaining the collection and recovery aspect of
servicing. The amount of MHF contracts serviced as described above totaled
$430.1 million and $438 million, at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. At
the time MCi sells a MHF contract to an unaffiliated financial institution,
approximately one third of the fee collected is recorded as a "manufactured
housing brokerage fee" and the remaining two thirds of the fee is deposited into
escrow accounts and is available to offset potential prepayment or credit losses
("MCi reserves"). The MCi reserves are recognized as "servicing income on
brokered MHF contracts" ratably over the MHF contract life based on the present
value of the future cash flows of the MCi reserves utilizing assumptions for
prepayment and credit losses and a discount rate. The undiscounted balance of
the MCi reserves was $46.4 million and $46 million as of December 31, 1997 and
1996, respectively.
     The Corporation's subsidiary, Signal Bank, N.A., purchases MHF contracts
from MCi, a portion of which are packaged in asset backed securitizations (ABS
pools) and sold to investors. Sales and securitizations of MHF contracts totaled
$137.3 million in 1997 and $48.9 million in 1996. At the time of sale, the
Corporation records an asset, "retained interest in securitized assets,"
representing the discounted future cash flows to be received by the Corporation
for 1) servicing income from the ABS pool, 2) principal and interest payments on
MHF contracts contributed to the ABS pools as a credit enhancement, referred to
as over-collateralization and 3) excess interest spread. Excess interest spread
represents the difference between interest collected from MHF contract borrowers
and interest paid to investors in the ABS pools net of a 60 basis point per
annum provision for credit risk and further reduced by the impact of estimated
prepayments using 130 MHP. MHP is the manufactured housing industry standard
index for prepayment. Prepayment and credit loss assumptions are based on the
Corporation's historical experience. Subordinated future cash flows from the ABS
pools have been discounted at 10%. The carrying value of retained interest in
securitized assets is subject to periodic adjustment based upon potential
impairment and changing market conditions. Management periodically reviews the
retained interest in securitized assets for possible impairment by comparing
actual cash flows received by the Corporation from the ABS pools and actual
prepayments and credit losses to the corresponding projections used at the time
of sale for each ABS pool. Impairment, if any, is charged to operations.
Favorable experience is recognized prospectively as realized. The aggregate
amount of ABS pools serviced by the Corporation totaled $186.2 million and $48
million at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, and such amounts are not
included in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. Changes in the
retained interest in securitized assets for the years ended December 31 were as
follows:

     As of December 31, 1997, options outstanding have exercise prices between
$2.18 and $44.63 and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 7.7 years.
    At December 31, 1997, there were 460,055 incentive options and 91,163
nonqualified options outstanding and 519,422 shares were available for granting
additional options.
     Under the 1997 Employee Stock purchase Plan, the Corporation is authorized
to issue up to 136, 878 shares of common stock to its full time employees,
nearly all of whom are eligible to participate. Under the terms of the Plan,
employees can choose each year to have up to 10 percent of their annual
compensation withheld to purchase the Corporation's common stock. The purchase
price of the stock is 85 percent of the lower of its beginning-of-purchase
period or end-of-purchase period market price. Approximately 25 percent of
eligible employees currently participate in the Plan. Under the Plan, the
Corporation sold 6,053 shares to employees for 1997.
  The Corporation has elected to disclose pro forma net income and net income
per share as if the fair-value-based method had been applied in measuring
compensation costs. The Corporation's pro forma information for the years ended
December 31:

==============================================================
</TABLE>

     Compensation expense reflected in the pro forma disclosures is not
indicative of future amounts when the SFAS No. 123 prescribed method will apply
to all outstanding nonvested awards.
     The weighted average fair value of options granted was $17.43 in 1997,
$11.54 in 1996 and $7.40 in 1995. The fair value of each option grant is
estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with
the following assumptions used for grants in 1997, 1996 and 1995: expected
dividend yield of 1.10%, 1.78% and 1.78% and expected option lives of 10 years;
expected volatility of 30%, 39%, and 39%, and risk-free interest rates of 5.70%,
6.25%, and 6.25%, respectively.
     The Corporation granted restricted stock to certain officers and directors
in 1996 of which 53,125 shares are outstanding as of December 31, 1997. The
restricted stock vests at a rate of 20% per year on each January 31 through
January 2001, provided the Corporation return on average shareholders' equity of
the preceding year equals or exceeds 15%. Restricted Stock Compensation Expense
was $50,000 in 1997. As of January 31, 1998, 20% of the restricted shares
vested.

NOTE 12 - PREFERRED STOCK
     The Corporation issued in 1994 500,000 shares of 6 1/2 percent cumulative
convertible preferred stock, Series B, without par value. The stock is
convertible at the option of the holder at any time or it may be redeemed by the
Corporation on or after June 24, 1999 into 722,734 shares of common stock or
1.6812 common shares for each outstanding share of Series B preferred stock.
Cash dividends are payable quarterly on December 1, March 1, June 1 and
September 1 of each year.
     On December 16, 1997, the Corporation redeemed and converted the remaining
482,586 outstanding Series A preferred stock into 1,455,335 shares of common
stock. The 7 percent cumulative convertible Series A preferred stock was 
originally issued in 1992.

NOTE 13 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
     The Corporation has a profit sharing plan covering substantially all
employees. Employer contributions to the plan reflect a 75 percent match of
employee contributions up to 4% of employees wages and additional discretionary
contributions as approved by the Board of Directors. As of December 31, 1997,
the profit sharing plan held 22,855 shares of the Corporation valued at
$1,005,620. Employer contributions to the profit sharing plan were $270,000, 
$100,000 and $60,000 for 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
     The Corporation sponsored a final-pay noncontributory defined benefit plan
for Signal Bank, N.A. employees. Effective December 31, 1996, the employer
terminated the plan, settled the accumulated benefit obligation of $2,592,000
(nonvested benefits became vested upon termination of the plan) by rolling plan
assets, primarily certificates of deposit, into the profit sharing plan and
purchasing nonparticipating annuity contracts. Defined benefits were not
provided under any successor plan.
     As a result, the Corporation recognized a loss of $200,000 determined as
follows:

NOTE 14 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
     The Corporation, in the normal course of business, is a party to financial
instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to meet the

                               Exhibit 13, Page 10

<PAGE>   11



financing needs of its customers and to minimize exposure to fluctuations in
interest rates. These financial instruments primarily include commitments to
extend credit, standby and commercial letters of credit, and commitments to sell
residential mortgage loans. These instruments involve, to varying degrees,
elements of credit risk, counterparty risk and market risk in excess of the
amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contract or notional
amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Corporation
has in particular classes of financial instruments.
     Creditworthiness for all instruments is evaluated on a case-by-case basis
in accordance with Corporation credit policies. Collateral, if deemed necessary,
is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty and may include
business assets of commercial borrowers as well as personal property and real
estate of individual borrowers and guarantors.

==============================================================
</TABLE>

     Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend. Commitments generally
have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses that may require
payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments may expire without being drawn
upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash
requirements. The Corporation's exposure to credit risk in the event of
nonperformance by the other party is the contract amount.
     Standby and commercial letters of credit are conditional commitments issued
to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. At December 31,
1997, all standby letters of credit will expire within one year. The amount of
credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit in the event of nonperformance
by the other party is the contract amount.
     The Corporation enters into forward contracts for future delivery of
residential mortgage loans of a specified yield to reduce the interest rate risk
associated with fixed-rate residential mortgages held for sale and commitments
to fund residential mortgages. Credit risk arises from the possible inability of
the other parties to comply with the contract terms. The majority of the
Corporation's contracts are with U.S. government-sponsored agencies (FNMA and
FHLMC). Fixed rate commitments to sell residential mortgage loans of $8.3
million at December 31, 1997 are subject to market risk resulting from
fluctuations in interest rates and the Corporation's exposure is limited to the
replacement value of those commitments.
     These contracts carry the risk of the counterparty's future ability to
perform under the agreement. A limit of market exposure is approved for all
counterparties.
     In 1997, the Corporation entered into interest rate swap agreements with a
notional principal amount of $65.5 million in connection with the issuance of
$40.5 million of long-term, fixed-rate subordinated notes and a $25 million
brokered certificate of deposit. The Corporation receives fixed-rate payments at
9.125% and 7.10%, respectively, and pays a variable interest rate based upon
three-month LIBOR. These transactions involve the exchange of fixed and floating
rate payments without the exchange of the underlying principal amount. At
December 31, 1997, the Corporation has a $41 million forward contract due to
mature January 21, 1998 on manufactured housing loans held for sale. Notional
principal amounts are often used to express the volume of these types of
transactions, however, they do not represent the much smaller amounts that are
potentially subject to credit risk. Entering into interest rate swap agreements
and hedges involves the risk of dealing with counterparties and their ability to
meet the terms of the contract. The Corporation controls the credit risk of
these transactions through adherence to an investment policy, credit approval
policies and monitoring procedures.
     There are legal claims pending against the Corporation and its
subsidiaries. Based on a review of such litigation with legal counsel,
management believes that any resulting liability would not have a material
effect upon the Corporation's consolidated financial position or results of
operations.

</TABLE>

     The Consolidated Financial Statements have not been restated to include the
acquisition of Summit Bancorp due to immateriality.
     On February 9, 1998, the Corporation announced the signing of a definitive
agreement for the affiliation of First Shenango Bancorp, Inc. First Shenango's
wholly-owned subsidiary, First Federal Savings Bank of New Castle, is expected
to become a separate operating subsidiary of the Corporation and operate under
its current name and banking charter. Under the terms of the agreement, the
Corporation will exchange 1.143 shares of its common stock for each of the
2,069,007 outstanding shares of First Shenango stock and 109,074 outstanding
options. Based on the closing price of FirstFederal Financial Services Corp on
February 6, 1998 of $41.75, the transaction would be valued at approximately
$103.9 million, or $47.72 per share of First Shenango stock. The merger, which
will be accounted for as a pooling of interests, is expected to be consummated
in the third quarter, pending First Shenango and FirstFederal Financial Services
Corp shareholder approval, regulatory approval and other customary conditions of
closing. The transaction is expected to be a tax-free reorganization for federal
income tax purposes. First Shenango has four banking offices in Lawrence County,
Pennsylvania. At December 31, 1997, First Shenango had total assets of $375.0
million, deposits of $275.2 million and shareholders' equity of $47.9 million.
     On September 15, 1997, the Corporation purchased deposits of approximately
$151 million, loans of $24 million and seven North Central Ohio branch
facilities from KeyBank, N.A. for approximately $19 million. On March 23, 1996,
the Corporation purchased deposits of approximately $26.6 million and a branch
facility in Mount Vernon, Ohio from Peoples National Bank for $2.4 million.

NOTE 16 - REGULATORY MATTERS
     The principal source of income and funds for the Corporation (parent
company) are dividends from its subsidiaries. During the year 1998, the amount
of dividends that the banking subsidiaries can pay to the Corporation without
prior approval of regulatory agencies is limited to their 1997 eligible net
profits, as defined, plus the adjusted retained 1996 and 1995 net income of the
subsidiaries.
     Banking subsidiaries must maintain noninterest-bearing cash

                               Exhibit 13, Page 11

<PAGE>   12



balances on reserve with the Federal Reserve Bank. In 1997 and 1996, the
subsidiary banks were required to maintain average reserve balances of
$5,821,000 and $3,511,000, respectively.
     The Federal Reserve Board adopted quantitative measures which assign risk
weightings to assets and off-balance-sheet items and also define and set minimum
regulatory capital requirements (risk-based capital ratios). All banks are
required to have core capital (Tier 1) of at least 4% of risk-weighted assets,
total capital of at least 8% of risk-weighted assets and a minimum Tier 1
leverage ratio of 3% of adjusted quarterly average assets. Tier 1 capital
consists principally of shareholders' equity excluding unrealized gains and
losses on securities available for sale, less goodwill. Total capital consists
of Tier 1 capital plus certain debt instruments and the allowance for credit
losses, subject to limitation. Failure to meet certain capital requirements can
initiate certain actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct
material effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements. The regulations also
define well capitalized levels. The subsidiary banks exceeded the minimum
guidelines for well capitalized institutions.

its significant subsidiaries at December 31:

     In 1996, the Corporation had total capital to risk-weighted assets of
14.52%. Prior to July 1, 1997, the Corporation operated as a thrift holding
company and was not required to compute Tier 1 risk adjusted capital. The thrift
leverage (core) capital ratio, is comparable to the "Tier 1 leverage" ratio
reported currently. The leverage (core) capital ratio was 6.60% on December 31,
1996, compared to the regulatory requirement of 3.00%.

NOTE 18 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
     At December 31, 1997 and 1996, certain directors, executive officers,
principal holders of Corporation common stock and associates of such persons
were indebted to the banking subsidiaries in the aggregate amount, net of
participations, of $1,803,922 and $130,701, respectively. Summit Bank, N.A. had
approximately $1.7 million of related party loans when acquired. During 1997,
new loans aggregating $84,900 were made to such parties and loans aggregating
$148,735 were repaid. Such indebtedness was incurred in the ordinary course of
business on substantially the same terms as those prevailing at the time of
comparable transactions with unrelated parties.

</TABLE>

     Fair values for financial instruments were based on various assumptions and
estimates as of a specific point in time and may vary significantly from amounts
that will be realized in actual transactions. In addition, certain financial
instruments and all non-financial instruments were excluded from the fair value
disclosure requirements. Therefore, the fair values presented above should not
be construed as the underlying value of the Corporation. In addition, the
negative fair value of the interest rate hedge represents the estimated amount
the Corporation would have to pay at each date to cancel the contracts or
transfer them to other parties.
     The following methods and assumptions were used in determining the fair
value of selected financial instruments:

     SHORT-TERM FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES - for financial instruments
with short or no stated maturity, prevailing market rates and limited credit
risk, carrying amounts approximate fair value. Those financial instruments
include cash and due from banks, other short-term investments, certain deposits
(non-interest bearing demand, interest checking, savings and money market),
repurchase agreements and short-term borrowings.
     SECURITIES, AVAILABLE FOR SALE AND HELD TO MATURITY - fair values were
based on quoted market prices, dealer quotes and prices obtained from
independent pricing services.
     LOANS AND LEASES - fair values were estimated by discounting the future
cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to
borrow with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.
     DEPOSITS - fair values for certificates of deposit - were estimated using a
discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being
offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
     LONG-TERM DEBT AND SUBORDINATED DEBT - fair value of long-term debt was
based on quoted market prices, when available, and a discounted cash flow
calculation using prevailing market rates for borrowings of similar terms.
     INTEREST RATE SWAPS AND FORWARD CONTRACTS - fair values of interest rate
swaps and forward contracts were based on quoted market prices.
     COMMITMENTS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT - fair value of commitments to extend
credit are based on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle
the obligation with the counterparties at the reporting date.

NOTE 20 - SEGMENTS
     The Corporation's principal activities include Community
Banking  and Specialty Finance.  Community Banking offers a full
range of deposit  and loan products and other services to

loans on manufactured houses through MCi, 2) provides
equipment leasing, 3) provides investment advisory services,
financial planning and portfolio management, 4) provides common
financing services and 5) real estate appraisal services.
     The financial information for each business segment reflect those which are
specifically identifiable or which are allocated based on an internal allocation
method. The allocation has been consistently applied for all periods presented.
     The measurement of the performance of the business segments is based on the
management structure of the Corporation and is not necessarily comparable with
similar information for any other financial institution. The information
presented is also not necessarily indicative of the segments' financial
condition and results of operations if they were independent entities.
     Selected financial information by business segment for the three years
ended December 31 is included in the following summary:

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
FirstFederal Financial Services Corp
Wooster, Ohio:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of FirstFederal
Financial Services Corp and subsidiaries (the Corporation) as of December 31,
1997 and 1996, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in
shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits. The consolidated financial statements
of the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 1995, were audited by other
auditors whose report thereon, dated January 26, 1996, expressed an unqualified
opinion on those statements.

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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of FirstFederal
Financial Services Corp and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Corporation
adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," in 1997.

NET INTEREST INCOME
     The largest source of the Corporation's revenue is net interest income. Net
interest income is the spread between interest income on interest-earning
assets, such as loans and leases and securities, and the interest expense on
liabilities used to fund those assets, such as interest-bearing deposits and
borrowings. Net interest income is affected by both changes in the level of
interest rates and changes in the amount and composition of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Changes in net interest income are
frequently measured by two statistics-net interest margin and net interest rate
spread. Net interest margin is expressed as net interest income divided by
average interest-earning assets. Net interest rate spread is the difference
between the average yield earned on interest-earning assets and the average rate
incurred on the interest-bearing liabilities. Table 1, Consolidated Average
Balance Sheets and Analysis of Net Interest Income, presents the net interest
income, net interest margin, and net interest rate spread for the five years
1993 through 1997, comparing interest revenue and interest-bearing assets
outstanding with interest cost and average interest-bearing liabilities
outstanding. Nonaccrual loans and leases have been included in the average loan
and lease balances. Average outstanding securities balances were based on
amortized cost excluding unrealized gains or losses on securities available for
sale.
     Net interest income grew to $30.5 million in 1997, an increase of 19% over
the $25.5 million earned during 1996. Net interest income increased 6.9% in 1996
over 1995. For 1997, net interest income growth resulted from an increase in
average interest-earning assets, a portion of which is attributable to 1997
businesses acquired, and improvement in the net interest margin from a higher
yield on loans and leases. The increase in 1996 was attributable primarily to
average interest-earning asset growth which overcame the effect of a compressed
net interest margin.
     During 1997, average interest-earning assets grew by $183 million to $1.2
billion, an increase of 18.6% over 1996. In 1996, average interest-earning
assets grew 14.3% over 1995. Securitization and sales of manufactured housing
loans and cash proceeds from the KeyBank deposit acquisition in 1997 affected
the Corporation's earning asset mix in 1997. The Corporation continues to use
loan securitization and sales to increase balance sheet flexibility.

Sales and securitizations allow the Corporation to expand origination and
servicing, and the related fee income, without increasing leverage. Sales and
securitization of manufactured housing loans totaled $137.3 million in 1997 and
$48.9 million in 1996. A portion of the proceeds from the $40.5 million
subordinated debt offering in March 1997 and the KeyBank deposit acquisition
were invested in securities to provide liquidity to fund loan and lease growth
in our North Central Ohio markets.
     Average interest-bearing liabilities grew from $799 million in 1995 to $923
million in 1996 to $1.1 billion in 1997. Core deposits remain our most important
funding source because they are relatively lower cost and the basis for ongoing
customer relationships. In 1997, average core deposits increased 21.0% due to a
renewed focus on new transaction account products and promotions, and deposit
acquisitions in 1997 and 1996. Acquisitions contributed approximately $70
million of the $122 million total growth in average core deposits. Average
demand, interest checking and savings accounts comprised 34.1% of total core
deposits, compared to 33.7% in 1996 and 35.5% in 1995. Average non-core deposits
and short-term borrowings increased to 52.6% from 50.8% of average
interest-earning assets in 1996. The net interest margin improved 2 basis points
(bp) (a basis point is equivalent to .01%) to 2.62% in 1997 from 2.60% in 1996.
The 1997 increase follows an 18 bp drop in the net interest margin in 1996. The
total cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 23 bps during 1997 to 5.43%
reflecting higher borrowing costs on short and long-term debt and interest rate
increases on certain deposit products which generated additional core deposits
in 1997. Interest-bearing deposit costs increased 16 bps from 4.81% in 1996 to
4.97% in 1997. The cost of borrowed funds, including short-term borrowings,
subordinated notes and long-term debt, increased by 35 bps from 5.94% in 1996 to
6.29% in 1997. The effect of interest free funds on the net interest margin
improved from 14 bps in 1996 to 20 bps in 1997 primarily due to the effect of
acquisitions. Net interest margins compressed during 1995 and the first part of
1996, due primarily to 1995's rapid rise in short-term interest rates which
caused short-term liabilities to reprice upward faster than short-term assets.
Margins stabilized in the last part of 1996 as strong loan and lease volume and
higher interest rates improved average interest-earning asset yields. The margin
was also affected in part by additional balance sheet leverage in 1997 through
the purchase of securities funded primarily by short-term borrowings. This
securities leverage strategy favorably impacted 1997 ROE but negatively impacted
the net interest margin.
     Table 2, the Analysis of Net Interest Income Changes, separates the
Corporation's change in net interest income into two components: (1) volume of
average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities outstanding;
and (2) average yields on interest-earning assets and average rates for
interest-bearing liabilities. Table 2 illustrates the net interest income effect
of balance sheet changes and changes in interest rate levels which occurred
during 1997 and 1996.

NON-INTEREST INCOME
     Total non-interest income increased 63% over 1996 and was up 330% in 1996
over 1995.
     The largest increase was attributable to manufactured housing income, which
originated in 1996 with the Corporation's acquisition of MCi, increasing $4.4
million in 1997 to $16 million from $11.6 million in 1996. Originations of
manufactured housing finance contracts (MHF contracts) increased to $310.3
million in 1997 from $260.6 million in 1996 reflecting expansion of MCi's
manufactured housing dealer base from 27 states in 1996 to 42 states. Gains
realized upon the sale of MHF contracts improved in 1997 as management directed
more product into asset securitizations or bulk sales and reduced the number of
MHF contracts brokered on a flow basis to other financial institutions. Sales
and securitizations of MHF contracts totaled $137.3 million in 1997 compared to
$48.9 million in 1996. The components of manufactured housing income are shown
in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Wider pricing spreads and
heightened market sensitivity to gain on sale accounting is anticipated to
result in lower gains realized upon the sale of MHF contracts in 1998 compared
to 1997.
     Mortgage banking income increased 47% in 1997 and 35% in 1996 in large part
due to lower interest rates which fueled origination volume and generated
increased gains on sales of mortgage loans. Gains on sales of residential
mortgage loans for 1997 were $4 million compared to $2.3 million for 1996, which

included the effect of adopting SFAS No. 122, and $1.5 million for 1995. During
1997, the Corporation originated $240.2 million in residential mortgage loans
compared to $368.5 million in 1996, whereas sales totaled $121.6 million in 1997
and $223.4 million in 1996. Origination volume in 1997 was lower that 1996
primarily due to mortgage product mix and pricing changes implemented by
management to enhance profit margins from mortgage banking activities.
Residential mortgage loans serviced at December 31, 1997 were $1 billion,
including $521 million serviced for others.
  Customer service fee income totaled $4.8 million in 1997 and $1.9 million in
1996, up 159% and 275%, respectively. The growth in both years was fueled by an
expanding delivery system, deposit acquisitions, successful product campaigns
and pricing enhancements.
     Other income increased $1.6 million in 1997, reflecting lease
consulting activities of ACR acquired in 1997.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
     The Corporation strives to control operating expenses through efficient
staffing and a constant focus on improving productivity.
     Operating expense levels are often measured using the efficiency ratio
(operating expenses before amortization divided by the sum of net interest
income and non-interest income). The Corporation's efficiency ratio compares
favorably to other banks at 54.55%, 52.78% and 50.61% for 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively, excluding the impact of non-recurring expenses. Total non-interest
expense excluding non-recurring expenses increased 43% in 1997 and 76% in 1996.
Acquisitions and growth affected year-to-year operating expense comparisons.
     Excluding the non-recurring expenses, salaries, wages, incentives and
employee benefits comprised 48% and 46% of total non-interest expense in 1997
and 1996, respectively, and increased by 51% and 90% during the same periods.
The number of full-time equivalent (FTE) employees was 635 at the end of the
year, an increase of 205 over year end 1996. The majority of the increase in
FTE employees is directly due to acquisitions. Average salaries, wages,
incentives and benefits per FTE have increased 2% from 1996, which was
relatively unchanged from 1995.
     Net occupancy expenses increased 57% in 1997 and 18% in 1996. Increased
costs in 1997 are associated with the net addition of 15 locations, primarily
from acquisitions, including rental property costs, utilities, real estate taxes
and depreciation. Upgrades of equipment to support growth and processing
technology also contributed to the increase.
     Non-interest expense in 1997 includes $1.2 million for acquisition
transaction costs of Summit Bank and 1996 expense includes a $3.3 million
one-time assessment to recapitalize the SAIF fund.
     Outside services, data processing and communications expenses increased to
$3.5 million, up $1.1 million or 49% over 1996, which was directly related to
increased loan and deposit volumes. Intangible amortization was up approximately
$.7 million in 1997 due to acquisition activity.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

SECURITIES
     The investment portfolio consists largely of fixed and floating rate
mortgage related securities, predominantly underwritten to the standards of and
guaranteed by the government-sponsored agencies of FHLMC and FNMA. These
securities differ from traditional debt securities primarily in that they have
uncertain maturity dates and are priced based on estimated prepayment rates on
the underlying mortgages. The estimated average life of the portfolio is 4.3
years based on current prepayment expectations.
   The growth in the securities portfolio in 1997 reflects the investment of
proceeds from deposit acquisitions and the $40.5 million subordinated debt
offering in March 1997. The securities portfolio provides liquidity to fund
future loan and lease growth in our expanding markets.

</TABLE>

     Loan and lease balances increased 37% and 15%, respectively, in 1997 and
1996. Acquisitions completed in 1997 represent $119.1 million of the $247.3
million increase in 1997. In both years, the growth in outstandings was affected
considerably by sales and securitizations of mortgage and manufactured housing
loans, which allows the Corporation to be selective in how much of the expanding
origination volume is retained in the loan and lease portfolio. For example,
manufactured housing loan originations were $310.3 million in 1997 compared to
$260.6 million in 1996, a 19% increase, but the related manufactured housing
loan outstandings only increased $72 million because $137.3 million of this
origination volume was securitized and sold in 1997. Similarly, residential
mortgage loan balances actually declined during 1997 because the Corporation
sold $121.9 million in mortgage loans which when combined with loan repayments,
exceeded mortgage loan originations of $240.2 million in 1997. Consumer loans
grew by 80% and 7% in 1997 and 1996, respectively, primarily due to increases in
home equity loans in 1997.
     Commercial loan and lease outstandings increased to $163.8 million in 1997
from $22 million in 1996. The majority of the $141.4 million increase in 1997
reflects expanded commercial loan and lease portfolios and origination abilities
through acquisitions completed in 1997. Commercial mortgages represent 8% of the
total loan and lease portfolio and include primary financing of loans on
properties occupied by the principal borrower ("owner-occupied") within our
banking market areas in Ohio.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
     The Corporation provides as an expense an amount for expected credit
losses. The provision for credit losses is based on the growth of the loan and
lease portfolio and on recent loss experience. Actual losses on loans and leases
are charged against the allowance for credit losses. The amount of loans and
leases actually removed as assets from the Consolidated Balance Sheets is
referred to as charge-offs and, after netting out recoveries on previously
charged off assets becomes net charge-offs.
     Charge-offs, net of recoveries, increased $293,000 over 1996 due to higher
losses on commercial loans. Net charge-offs as a percent of average loans and
leases outstanding were 0.10%, 0.07% and 0.04% for 1997, 1996 and 1995
respectively. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans and
leases increased to 0.60% at December 31, 1997 from 0.43% at December 31, 1996
due to the changing mix in loans and leases outstanding.

UNDERPERFORMING ASSETS
     Underperforming assets consist of (1) nonaccrual loans and leases on which
the ultimate collectibility of the full amount of interest is uncertain, (2)
loans and leases which have been renegotiated to provide for a reduction or
deferral of interest or principal because of deterioration in the financial
position of the borrower, (3) loans and leases past due ninety days or more as
to principal or interest and (4) other real estate owned. A summary of
underperforming assets at December 31 follows:

</TABLE>

     Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total loans, leases and other real
estate owned decreased to 0.51% at December 31, 1997 from 0.62% at December 31,
1996. Of the total underperforming assets at December 31, 1997, $2.3 million are
to residential mortgage borrowers and $.5 million relate to commercial loans or
mortgages on projects in the Corporation's primary banking market areas in Ohio.
The remaining $2 million of underperforming assets relate to consumer loans,
primarily manufactured housing finance contracts, located throughout the United
States.
     At the time loans are classified as non-accrual, any related interest
income is reversed. For the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995
respectively, additional interest income of $114,146, $70,660 and $75,642 would
have been recorded if the nonaccrual and renegotiated loans and leases had been
current in accordance with their original terms. No interest income on such
loans was recorded for the years ended 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, after
the dates on which such loans became nonaccrual loans.
     At December 31, 1996, underperforming residential mortgage loans were $2.3
million and underperforming commercials loans and consumer loans were $1 million
and $.8 million, respectively.

DEPOSITS
     Interest-earning assets are funded primarily by core deposits. The
accompanying tables show the relative composition of the Corporation's average
deposits and the change in average deposit sources during the last five years.
     Average core deposits increased 19.4% in 1997 due to a continued sales
focus on transaction accounts and deposit acquisitions. Our new Money Market
Index Account lead to increased savings and money market balances, while the
High Performance Checking product and promotional campaigns contributed to
advances in demand and interest checking. Core deposit growth in 1997 was
instrumental in funding 1997 average asset growth of 22.6% without any
significant change in short-term borrowings. The acquisition of deposits from
KeyBank, N.A. increased deposits by $150.8 million. Deposits acquired in 1996
totaled approximately $26.6 million.
     Scheduled maturities of certificates and other time deposits at December
31, 1997, were as follows: through 1998 - $379,600,000; 1999 through 2002 -
$184,680,000; and 2003 and after - $46,993,000.
     Interest expense on certificates of $100,000 or more was $6,190,000,
$4,001,000 and $2,116,000 for 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The following
tables depict the distribution of average deposits and changes in average
deposit sources for each of the last five years.

SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS
     Short-term borrowings primarily consist of securities sold under agreements
to repurchase and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (FHLB).
Short-term borrowings are generally used to fund loans held for sale and the
portion of earning asset growth not funded by core deposits. Average short-term
borrowings as a percentage of average earning assets increased from 8.5% in 1996
to 10.3% in 1997. At year end 1997, borrowings supported a relatively smaller
proportion of earning asset growth compared to 1996 because of the
aforementioned deposit acquisitions and success in increasing core deposits. In
1996 and in 1995, loan and lease growth outpaced core deposit growth, increasing
the reliance on short-term borrowings.

LONG-TERM BORROWINGS
     Long-term borrowings, primarily consist of FHLB advances and subordinated
debt. Long-term borrowings are generally used to fund longer term earning assets
such as residential mortgage loans and manufactured housing loans. The $40.5
million subordinated debt is redeemable at the option of the Corporation at any
time after June 30, 2002 until its maturity date of June 30, 2004. The
subordinated debt qualifies as Tier 2 regulatory capital.
     In February, 1998, the Corporation issued $50 million of 8.67% Junior
Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due in 2028. Portions of these
subordinated debentures qualify as Tier 1 and Tier 2 regulatory capital.

CAPITAL RESOURCES
     At December 31, 1997, shareholders' equity was $104.7 million compared to
$85.3 million at December 31, 1996, an increase of $19.4 million or 23%. This
increase in capital resulted primarily from the retention of earnings and the
issuance of stock in an acquisition.
     The following table shows several capital ratios for the last three years:

LIQUIDITY AND MARKET RISK
     The objective of the Corporation's Asset/Liability Management function is
to maintain consistent growth in net interest income within the Corporation's
policy guidelines. This objective is accomplished through flexible management of
the Corporation's balance sheet liquidity and interest rate risk exposures due
to changes in economic conditions, interest rate levels and customer
preferences.
     The goal of liquidity management is to provide adequate funds to meet
changes in loan and lease demand or any potential unexpected deposit
withdrawals. This goal is accomplished primarily by maintaining sufficient
liquid assets in the form of investment securities and loans held for sale along
with consistent core deposit growth, and the availability of unused borrowing
capacity at FHLB. At December 31, 1997, the Corporation had approximately $141
million in securities, loans held for sale and other short-term investments
maturing within one year compared to $121 million at year-end 1996. Additional
asset liquidity is provided by the remainder of the securities portfolio and
selected securitizable loan assets. The Corporation funds interest-earning
assets with core deposits and borrowings. Average core deposits have funded
approximately 66% of total average interest-earning assets over the last five
years. This, in addition to the Corporation's borrowing capacity and 8% average
equity capital base, serves as a stable funding base.
     Management considers interest rate risk to be the Corporation's most
significant market risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes
in the net interest income of the Corporation as a result of changes in interest
rates. Consistency in the Corporation's earnings is largely dependent on the
effective management of interest rate risk.
     The Corporation's Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO), which
includes senior management representatives and reports to the Board of
Directors, monitors and considers methods of managing the rate sensitivity and
repricing characteristics of the balance sheet components consistent with
maintaining acceptable levels of changes in economic value of equity (EVE) and
net interest income (NII). The Corporation's asset/liability management program
is designed to minimize the impact of sudden and sustained changes in interest
rates on EVE and NII.
     The Corporation employs a variety of measurement techniques to identify and
manage its exposure to changing interest rates. An income simulation model is
used to determine the Corporation's sensitivity to changes in interest rates,
while interest rate sensitivity gap analysis is used to determine the repricing
characteristics of the subsidiaries assets and liabilities. If estimated changes
to EVE and NII are not within the limits established by the Board, the Board may
direct management to adjust its asset and liability mix to bring interest rate
risk within board-approved limits. The models are based on actual cash flows and
repricing characteristics for on and off balance sheet instruments and
incorporate market-based assumptions regarding the impact of changing interest
rates on the prepayment rate of certain assets and liabilities. The models also
include senior management projections for activity levels in product lines
offered by the Corporation. Assumptions based on the historical behavior of
deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in interest rates are also
inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely measure net
interest rates or NII. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to
timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in
market conditions and management strategies.
     The Board of Directors has adopted an interest rate risk policy which
establishes maximum decreases in the EVE of 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% and decreases
in NII of 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% in the event of a sudden and sustained 1 to 4
percent increase or decrease in market interest rates. The following table
presents the Corporation's projected change in EVE and NII for various rate
shock levels at December 31, 1997.

At December 31, 1997, the estimated changes in EVE and NII were within the
policy guidelines established by the Board of Directors.
     In order to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations and to manage
liquidity, the Corporation has developed strategies to shorten the effective
maturity and increase the interest rate sensitivity of its asset base. Emphasis
has been placed on the origination of adjustable-rate residential and commercial
mortgage loans and adjustable-rate commercial and consumer loans to decrease the
average maturity and repricing characteristics of the Corporation's assets. In
addition, long-term, fixed-rate mortgage loans are underwritten according to
guidelines of the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) and the Federal
National Mortgage Association (FNMA) to facilitate sale of those loans into the
secondary market for cash. Long-term, fixed rate manufactured housing loans are
underwritten in accordance with guidelines established to facilitate
securitization and sale to investors in secondary markets as well. As a primary
means of funding interest-earning assets, the Corporation maintains core
transaction deposits which generally are more resistant to interest rate changes
than other funding options. The Corporation continually evaluates interest rate
risk management opportunities, including the use of derivative financial
instruments such as interest rate swaps and forward commitments. The Corporation
does not currently engage in trading activities.
     In addition, the Corporation uses interest rate sensitivity gap analysis to
monitor the relationship between the maturity and repricing of its
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, while maintaining an
acceptable interest rate spread. Interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the
difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or repricing
within a specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities
maturing or repricing within that time period. A gap is considered positive when
the amount of interest-rate-sensitive assets exceeds the amount of
interest-rate-sensitive liabilities, and is considered negative when the amount
of interest-rate-sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of
interest-rate-sensitive assets. Generally, during a period of rising interest
rates, a negative gap would adversely affect NII, while a positive gap would
result in an increase in NII. Conversely, during a period of falling interest
rates, a negative gap would result in an increase in NII, while a positive gap
would negatively affect NII.
     The following table summarizes the Corporation's interest rate sensitivity
gap analysis at December 31, 1997:

YEAR 2000
     Some of the Corporation's computer programs were originally designed to
recognize calendar years by their last two digits. Calculations performed using
these truncated fields may not work properly with dates from the year 2000 and
beyond. The Corporation began planning its year 2000 conversion in 1997 and
formed a project committee that quarterly reviews the status of the conversion.
A comprehensive review to identify the systems affected by this issue was
completed, estimated cost projections were determined and an implementation plan
was compiled and is currently being executed. As a result of the procedures
already completed, the Corporation expects to either modify or upgrade existing
systems or replace some systems altogether. Considerable progress has been made
by Corporation personnel and it is anticipated that this project will be largely
completed by internal staff. The Corporation does not expect to spend any
significant amounts with outside contractors relative to the completion of this
task although no assurance can be given in this regard. Projected capital
expenditures for 1998 and 1999 to upgrade technology equipment not year 2000
compliant is $1.5 to $2.0 million. These capital expenditures should not result
in a material incremental increase in capital outlays from 1997 levels. Many of
the Corporation systems are vendor-supplied, and most vendors have provided the
Corporation with certification or a delivery commitment letter. The Corporation
presently believes with the planned modifications to existing systems,
conversion to new systems, and vendor delivery of millennium-compliant systems,
the year 2000 compliance issues will be resolved on a timely basis, and any
related costs will not have a material impact on the operations, cash flows, or
financial condition of future periods although no assurance can be given in this
regard. In addition to internal efforts, the Corporation began a series of
customer awareness seminars in February 1998 to encourage commercial banking
customers to address year 2000 risks and concerns present in their respective
businesses.
