| ·             | Financial instruments with      book value equal to fair value: The fair value of financial      instruments that are short-term or reprice frequently and that have little      or no risk are considered to have a fair value equal to book      value. |
|--------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| ·             | Investments: The fair      value of all investments excluding FHLB stock was based upon quoted market      prices. FHLB stock is not publicly-traded, however it may be redeemed on a      dollar-for-dollar basis, for any amount we are not required to hold. The      fair value is therefore equal to the bookvalue. |
|--------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| ·             | Loans receivable: For      variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change      in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. The fair value      of the performing loans that do not reprice frequently is estimated using      discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates currently being      offered or interest rates that would be offered for loans with similar      terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. The fair value of      nonperforming loans is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, at      the loans effective interest rate or, the fair value of the underlying      collateral if the loan is collateral  dependent.  |
|--------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| ·             | Liabilities: The fair      value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as statement, NOW, and      money market accounts, is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair      value of certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of      contractual cash flows. The fair value of the FHLB advances approximates      book value as the interest rate is comparable to interest rates currently      available for similar debt instruments at September 30, 2009 and December      31, 2008. |
|--------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| ·             | Off-balance sheet      commitments: No fair value adjustment is necessary for commitments      made to extend credit, which represents commitments for loan originations      or for outstanding commitments to purchase loans. These commitments are at      variable rates, are for loans with terms of less than one year and have      interest rates which approximate prevailing market rates, or are set at      the time of loan closing. |

|-----------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| (2)   | The      net portfolio value is calculated based upon the present value of the      discontinued cash flows from assets and liabilities. The difference      between the present value of assets and liabilities is the net portfolio      value and represents the market value of equity for the given interest      rate scenario. Net portfolio value is useful for determining, on a market      value basis, how much equity changes in response to various interest rate      scenarios. Large changes in net portfolio value reflect increased interest      rate sensitivity and generally more volatile earnings    streams. |
|-----------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| (3)   | Represents      the increase (decrease) in the estimated net portfolio value at the      indicated change in interest rates over the estimated portfolio value of      assets. |
|-----------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| (4)   | Calculated      as the net portfolio value divided by the market value of assets (“net      portfolio value ratio”). |
|-----------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| (5)   | Calculated      as the increase (decrease) in the net portfolio value ratio assuming the      indicated change in interest rates over the estimated portfolio value of      assets. |
|-----------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| (6)   | Calculated      based on the present value of the discounted cash flows from assets. The      market value of assets represents the value of assets under the various      interest rate scenarios and reflects the sensitivity of those assets to      interest rate changes. |

| (a)   | Evaluation of Disclosure      Controls and Procedures: An evaluation of our disclosure controls      and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) was      carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief      Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of      our senior management as of the end of the period covered by this report.      Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as      of September 30, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures were      effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by us      in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated      and communicated to our management (including the Chief Executive Officer      and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded,      processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in      the SEC’s rules and forms. |
