2000 ANNUAL REPORT
================================================================================

                               TO OUR STOCKHOLDERS

         The Company's primary business activity consists of the ownership of
Fairfield Savings Bank, F.S.B. (the "Bank"). The Bank had a core and a tangible
capital ratio of 10.28% and 12.78% at June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The
decrease in bank capital ratios from prior years is due to a dividend paid to
Big Foot Financial Corp. (the "Company"), which was primarily used to repurchase
its common stock.

         The Board of Directors of Big Foot Financial Corp. declared a cash
dividend on its common stock of five cents ($0.05) per share in each quarter of
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000. The Board will consider the payment of
additional dividends in succeeding quarterly periods, based on earnings,
financial conditions and other factors.

         The Company continues to pursue a stock repurchase program. During
fiscal year 2000, the Company repurchased 525,281 shares of common stock. Total
common stock repurchased since the inception of the repurchase programs amounted
to 767,082 shares, or over 30% of the total 2,512,750 common shares issued in
the Company's initial public offering. The repurchase program has helped
increase our book value from $15.29 per share at June 30, 1999 to $16.40 per
share at June 30, 2000, an increase of $1.11, or approximately 7.3%. Additional
repurchases will be made from time to time at the discretion of management.

         Total assets as of June 30, 2000 were $215.7 million, an increase of
$0.2 million from the prior year-end. There has been a continuing moderately
strong loan demand in the Bank's market area. Loan originations in the current
fiscal year were $32.5 million, compared to $44.1 million in the prior fiscal
year. At fiscal year-end, the Bank held one property classified as foreclosed
real estate, and non-performing assets were 0.15% of total assets, a ratio well
below industry averages. A detailed summary of the financial results appears in
the Management's Discussion and Analysis section of this Report.

         During fiscal year 2000, the Bank began developing a fully interactive,
transactional website. The website (www.fairfieldbank.com) will allow our
customers access to their account information, as well as transfer funds between
accounts and open new savings or loan accounts. It is anticipated that this
website will be fully functional by late fall 2000.

         The Proxy Statement includes a shareholder proposal, which Management
opposes. Refer to the Proxy Statement on page 20 for details.

         Fairfield Savings Bank will continue to focus on meeting the financial
service and loan needs of its valued customers. And, Big Foot Financial will do
its best to meet the expectations of its owners, the Big Foot stockholders.

Sincerely,



/s/ George M. Briody

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

         Big Foot Financial Corp. (the "Company"), an Illinois corporation, is
the holding company for Fairfield Savings Bank, F.S.B. (the "Bank"), a federally
chartered stock savings bank. On December 19, 1996 the Company issued and sold
2,512,750 shares of its common stock, $.01 par value, at a price of $10.00 per
share in a subscription offering, with net proceeds totaling $22.0 million.

         The Company's principal business is its investment in the Bank, which
is a community-oriented financial institution providing a variety of financial
services to the communities which it serves. The Bank's principal business
consists of gathering savings deposits from the general public within its market
area and investing those funds primarily in mortgage loans secured by one- to
four-family owner occupied properties, mortgage-backed securities and
obligations of the U.S. Government. To a lesser extent, the Bank makes
multifamily residential loans, commercial real estate loans, land, construction
and development loans, consumer loans and commercial lines of credit. The Bank's
revenues are derived principally from interest on mortgage loans and interest
and dividends on investments, mortgage-backed securities and, to a much lesser
extent, short-term investments. The Bank also derives income from fees and
service charges. The Bank's primary sources of funds are savings deposits and,
to a lesser extent, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (the
"FHLB"). The Bank does not have any subsidiaries.

         The Board of Directors of the Company approved the repurchase of shares
of the Company's outstanding common stock. The shares of common stock available
for repurchase under the current repurchase program, together with shares of
common stock previously repurchased, totals approximately 34.5% of the total
shares issued by the Company in the initial public offering. Additional
repurchases will be made from time to time through privately negotiated
transactions, odd-lot purchases and open-market transactions at the discretion
of management. At June 30, 2000, 767,082 shares had been repurchased under all
of the repurchase programs at an average cost of $12.47 per share and 99,017
shares remain to be repurchased under the current authorization. Management
continues to believe that stock repurchase programs are an effective capital
management tool and provide enhanced value to both the Company and its
stockholders.

         The Company repurchased up to an additional 4% of its shares of common
stock, or 100,510 shares, for the Company's 1997 Recognition and Retention Plan
("RRP"). On February 23, 1999, the Company amended the RRP in connection with
the authorization and granting of a restricted stock award of 3,149 shares to a
new director. The Company, as of June 30, 2000, had repurchased 110,245 common
shares for the RRP.

MANAGEMENT STRATEGY

         HOME LENDING AND ASSET QUALITY. The Bank's strategy has been to
maintain its focus as a traditional consumer oriented financial intermediary
serving the markets in which its offices are located.

         The Bank has emphasized, and intends to continue to emphasize, the
origination of one- to four-family residential mortgage loans in its lending
area, which is defined generally as Cook, Du Page and Lake Counties in Illinois.
At June 30, 2000, one- to four-family residential mortgage loans totaled $153.8
million or 98.8% of gross loans, of which $149.9 million or approximately 96.3%
of gross loans, are at fixed rates of interest. Approximately 1.2% of gross
loans consisted of multifamily mortgage loans, land, construction and
development loans, home equity and other loans. For the 2000 fiscal year, the
Bank originated $32.5 million of loans. The Bank also invests in mortgage-backed
securities. The Bank's holdings of mortgage-backed securities totaled $37.4
million at June 30, 2000, representing 17.3% of total assets.

         The Bank pays particular attention to both the value estimates applied
to the collateral securing loans, as well as to the creditworthiness of its
prospective borrowers and employs rigorous underwriting standards to minimize
risk of loss. As a result of this strategy, historically the Bank has had
minimal loss experience in its lending operations. The Bank's ratio of
non-performing loans to total loans at year-end ranged from 0.14% to 0.29% for
the last five fiscal years and was 0.16% at June 30, 2000. The ratio of
non-performing assets to total assets ranged from 0.06% to 0.16% for the last
five fiscal years and was 0.15% at June 30, 2000. The Bank's ratio of allowance
for loan losses to non-performing loans ranged from 87.72% to 254.24% for the
last five fiscal years and was 120.48% at June 30, 2000.

         SAVINGS DEPOSITS AND BORROWED MONEY. The Bank's savings deposits are
derived principally from its primary market area. The Bank's strategy has been
to maintain a high level of stable savings deposits by providing quality service
to its customers without significantly increasing its cost of funds. The Bank's
low-cost deposit base, consisting of passbook accounts, noninterest bearing
demand accounts, NOW accounts and money market demand accounts, totaled $63.7
million or 55.2% of total savings deposits and had a weighted average effective
rate of 2.30% at June 30, 2000. For the past three years, these accounts have
consistently accounted for more than 51.0% of total savings deposits and had a
weighted average effective rate of not more than 2.36% throughout this period.
At June 30, 2000, money market demand accounts totaled $10.8 million or 9.3% of
total savings deposits and had a weighted average effective rate of 3.24%. The
Bank has consistently maintained an overall cost of funds lower than the
National Median Cost of Funds Rate as determined by the OTS. At June 30, 2000,
the Bank's cost of savings deposits was 3.55% and its cost of funds (including
FHLB borrowings) was 4.48%, or 40 basis points below the National Median Cost of
Funds Rate. The Bank has not and does not intend to use brokered deposits as a
source of funds.

         MANAGEMENT OF INTEREST RATE RISK. The Bank's business strategy also
seeks to reduce the Bank's vulnerability to increases in interest rates.
Pursuant to this strategy, the Bank, (i) emphasizes the origination of mortgage
loans with terms of 15-years, instead of 30-year terms, (ii) seeks to attract
and maintain passbook accounts, which are considered by management to be



                                       5

                               2000 ANNUAL REPORT
================================================================================


more resistant to increases in interest rates, and (iii) purchases
mortgage-backed securities primarily with maturities of five to fifteen years.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         The principal objectives of the Bank's interest rate risk ("IRR")
management activities are to: (i) evaluate the interest rate risk included in
certain balance sheet accounts; (ii) determine the level of risk appropriate
given the Bank's business focus, operating environment, capital and liquidity
requirements and performance objectives; and (iii) manage this risk consistent
with Board approved guidelines. Through such management, the Bank seeks to
reduce vulnerability to changes in interest rates and to manage the ratio of
interest rate sensitive assets to interest rate sensitive liabilities within
specified maturities or repricing dates. The Bank monitors its interest rate
risk as such risk relates to its operating strategies. The change in levels of
interest rates is an uncertainty that could have an impact on the earnings of
the Bank. The Bank's Chief Financial Officer is charged with the responsibility
of developing and implementing an interest rate risk management and reporting
system. This system measures the Bank's exposure to interest rate risk and
provides reports quarterly to management and the Board of Directors to ensure
compliance with the limits of the policy.

         To the extent consistent with its interest rate spread objectives and
market conditions, the Bank attempts to manage its interest rate risk and has
taken several steps in this regard. First, a majority of the Bank's
mortgage-backed and investment securities acquisitions since 1993 have been
securities having a balloon maturity of five or seven years. At June 30, 2000,
the Company had $37.4 million in mortgage-backed securities, approximately $21.3
million of which mature within ten years. The Bank's available-for-sale
securities portfolio is carried at fair value. Any sale of such securities may
result in a gain or loss to the Bank to the extent the market value at the time
of sale exceeds or is less than the amortized cost.

         Second, a significant portion of the Bank's deposits are passbook
accounts, which are considered by management to be somewhat more resistant to
interest rate changes than most other types of accounts. At June 30, 2000, the
Bank had $37.4 million in passbook accounts. Finally, although the Bank makes
minimal adjustable rate loans due to competitive factors, the Bank's fixed rate
lending program emphasizes loans with terms of 15 years or less. At June 30,
2000, the Bank had $47.7 million or over 30.0% of total loans with remaining
terms of 16 years or less.

         Despite the efforts taken by the Bank to seek to reduce its level of
interest rate risk, and the Bank's intent to continue to seek to reduce its
exposure to interest rate risk, the Bank has remained vulnerable to increases in
interest rates. There can be no assurance that the Bank will not experience
changes in net income and net interest income during periods of increasing or
decreasing interest rates.

         Net Portfolio Value ("NPV") analysis provides a quantification of
interest rate risk. In essence, this approach calculates the present value of
expected cash flows from existing assets less the present value of expected cash
flows from existing liabilities plus the present value of net expected cash
inflows from existing off-balance sheet contracts.

================================================================================


         The OTS provides all institutions that file a schedule entitled the
Consolidated Maturity & Rate schedule ("CMR") as a part of their quarterly
Thrift Financial Report with an interest rate sensitivity report of NPV. The OTS
simulation model uses a discounted cash flow analysis and an option-based
pricing approach to measuring the interest rate sensitivity of NPV. The OTS
model estimates the economic value of each type of asset, liability, and
off-balance sheet contract under the assumption that the Treasury yield curve
shifts instantaneous and parallel up and down 100 to 300 basis points in 100
basis point increments. The OTS allows thrifts under $500 million in total
assets to use the results of their interest rate sensitivity model, which is
based on information provided by the institution, to estimate the sensitivity of
NPV.

         The OTS model utilizes an option-based pricing approach to estimate the
sensitivity of mortgage loans. The most significant embedded option in these
types of assets is the prepayment option of the borrowers. The OTS model uses
various price indications and prepayment assumptions to estimate sensitivity of
mortgage loans.

         In the OTS model, the value of deposit accounts appears on the asset
and liability side of the NPV analysis. In estimating the value of certificates
of deposit accounts, the liability portion of the CD is represented by the
implied value when comparing the difference between the CD face rate and
available wholesale CD rates. On the asset side of the NPV calculation, the
value of the "customer relationship" due to the rollover of retail CD deposits
represents an intangible asset in the NPV calculation.

         Other deposit accounts such as NOW accounts, money market demand
accounts, passbook accounts, and non-interest-bearing accounts also are included
on the asset and liability side of the NPV calculation in the OTS model. These
accounts are valued at 100% of the respective account balances on the liability
side. On the asset side of the analysis, the value of the "customer
relationship" of the various types of deposit accounts is reflected as a deposit
intangible.

         The NPV sensitivity of borrowed funds is estimated by the OTS model
based on a discounted cash flow approach. The cash flows are assumed to consist
of monthly or semi-annual interest payments with principal paid at maturity
(dependent upon the type of borrowing). The OTS model is based on only the
Bank's balance sheet, because virtually all of the Company's interest rate risk
exposure lies at the Bank level. Management believes the table below also
accurately reflects an analysis of the Company's IRR.

         Presented below, as of June 30, 2000, is an analysis of the Bank's
estimated interest rate risk as measured by changes in NPV for instantaneous and
sustained parallel shifts in interest rates, up and down 300 basis points in 100
point increments. The NPV is prepared for the Bank by the OTS as of the end of
each calendar quarter. The regulatory focus of Asset and Liability Management
allows institutions to perform an in-house estimate of risk as the basis for
measuring risk-based capital. The Bank has demonstrated through its past pricing
action that passbook accounts function as relatively fixed rate deposits, and as
such, the passbook accounts are not rate sensitive deposits. Based upon the
Bank's historical experience of its passbook accounts, the Bank calculates the
Core Deposit Intangible value for those accounts. This


                                       7

<PAGE>

calculation is substituted for the OTS calculations and then a new set of ratios
is computed. The Bank's asset and liability structure results in a decrease in
NPV in a rising interest rate scenario. During periods of rising interest rates,
the value of monetary assets declines more rapidly than the value of monetary
liabilities rises. Conversely, during periods of falling interest rates, the
value of monetary assets rises more rapidly than the value of monetary
liabilities declines. However, the amount of change in value of specific assets
and liabilities due to changes in interest rates is not the same in a rising
interest rate environment as in a falling interest rate environment (i.e., the
amount of value increase under a specific rate decline may not equal the amount
of value decrease under an identical upward interest rate movement).

</TABLE>

----------------------------
(1) Based on the economic value of the Bank's assets assuming no change in
interest rates.


         As noted above, the market value of the Bank's net assets would be
anticipated to decline in the event of certain designated increases in interest
rates. For instance, in the event of a 200 basis point increase in interest
rates, NPV is anticipated to fall by $8.7 million or 33.1%. The level of
interest rate risk in the NPV table set forth above at June 30, 2000 is within
the Bank's current guidelines for acceptable interest rate risk.

         In the event that interest rates change in the designated amounts,
there can be no assurance that the Bank's assets and liabilities would perform
as set forth above. In addition, a change in Treasury rates in the designated
amounts accompanied by a change in the shape of the Treasury yield curve would
cause changes to the NPV significantly different than indicated above.

         Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methods of analysis presented
in the computation of NPV. For example, although certain assets and liabilities
may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different
degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain
types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market
interest rates while interest rates on other types of assets may lag behind
changes in market rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable rate
loans, have features that restrict changes in interest rates both in the near
term and over the life of the asset. Further, in the event of a change in
interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate
significantly from those assumed in the table. Finally, the ability of borrowers
to make scheduled payments on their adjustable rate loans may decrease in the
event of an interest rate increase. As a result, the actual effect of changing
interest rates may differ from that presented in the foregoing table.

ANALYSIS OF NET INTEREST INCOME

         Net interest income represents the difference between income on
interest-earning assets and expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Net
interest income depends upon the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates earned or paid on them.

         The following tables set forth certain information relating to the
Bank's average balance sheet and reflects the average yield on assets and
average cost of liabilities for the periods indicated. Such yields and costs are
derived by dividing income or expense by the average monthly balance of assets
and liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. Average balances are
derived from month end balances. Management does not believe that the use of
month end balances instead of daily balances has caused any material difference
in the information presented. The yields and costs include fees, which are
considered adjustments to yields.

    (1)    The weighted average rate represents the coupon associated with each
           asset and liability, weighted by the principal balance associated
           with each asset and liability.
    (2)    In computing the average balance of loans receivable, non-accrual
           loans have been included.
    (3)    Includes investment in mutual funds and preferred stock.
    (4)    Average interest rate spread represents the difference between the
           average rate earned on interest-earning assets and the average rate
           paid on interest-bearing liabilities.
    (5)    Net interest margin represents net interest income as a percentage of
           average interest-earning assets.

RATE/VOLUME ANALYSIS

         Net interest income can also be analyzed in terms of the impact
changing interest rates have on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities, and the change in the volume or amount of these assets and
liabilities. In general, increases in the volume or amount of interest-bearing
liabilities, as well as increases in the interest rates paid on interest-bearing
liabilities, and decreases in the volume or amount of interest-earning assets,
as well as decreases in the yields

earned on interest-earning assets, have the effect of reducing the Bank's net
interest income. Conversely, increases in the volume or amount of the Bank's
interest-earning assets, as well as increases in the yields earned on
interest-earning assets, and decreases in the volume or amount of
interest-bearing liabilities, as well as decreases in the rates paid on
interest-bearing liabilities, have the effect of increasing the Bank's net
interest income. The following table sets forth certain information regarding
changes in interest income and interest expense for the periods indicated. For
each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities,
information is provided on changes attributable to changes in volume (changes in
volume multiplied by old rate) and changes in rates (changes in rates multiplied
by old volume). Changes attributable to the combined impact of rate volume have
been allocated proportionately to the changes due to volume and the changes due
to rate.

COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT JUNE 30, 2000 AND JUNE 30, 1999

         Total assets increased $0.2 million from $215.5 million at June 30,
1999 to $215.7 million at June 30, 2000. The components of the Company's asset
base also changed from June 30, 1999 to June 30, 2000. Mortgage-backed
securities ("MBS") (including both held-to-maturity and available-for-sale
portfolios) decreased $16.6 million from $54.0 million at June 30, 1999 to $37.4
million at June 30, 2000. This decrease is primarily due to $15.9 million in
principal repayments. An increase of $16.7 million in loans receivable from
$138.5 million at June 30, 1999 to $155.2 million at June 30, 2000, was the
result of loan originations of $32.5 million which exceeded the $16.3 million of
loan repayments. Interest earning deposits decreased $4.1 million from $7.5
million at June 30, 1999 to $3.4 million at June 30, 2000.

================================================================================



         Investments in mutual funds and preferred stock are recorded on the
balance sheet at fair value and were $7.5 million and $3.3 million at June 30,
2000 and 1999, respectively. This increase reflects the purchases of grade
corporate preferred stocks of $4.4 million during the fiscal year ended June 30,
2000. The net unrealized gain or loss in this portfolio is included as a
component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). See Note 2, to the
Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information.

         The Company, in July 1999, sold its remaining parcel of real estate
held for development in Olympia Fields by means of an auction. The cost basis of
the property at June 30, 1999, was $262,000; the sale price, net of selling
costs, was approximately $154,000 resulting in a loss of approximately $108,000.
A loss accrual was recorded by the Company in the quarter ended June 30, 1999
for this amount.

         The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2000 and 1999 was $300,000.
Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover any
known losses, and losses inherent in the loan portfolio. While management
estimates loan losses using the best available information, no assurance can be
made that future additions to the allowance will not be necessary. The ratio of
the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.19% and 0.22% at June 30,
2000 and 1999, respectively. At June 30, 2000 and 1999, the ratio of the
allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 120.48% and 155.44%,
respectively. The Bank had two non-performing loans totaling approximately
$249,000 at June 30, 2000 and three non-performing loans totaling approximately
$193,000 at June 30, 1999. The Bank had one property held in foreclosed real
estate at June 30, 2000, which amounted to $78,000. There were no loan
chargeoffs during the fiscal years June 30, 2000 and 1999.

         Savings deposits decreased $8.4 million from June 30, 1999 to June 30,
2000; during this time, borrowed funds increased by $14.0 million.
Noninterest-bearing NOW accounts increased $643,000. The increase in
noninterest-bearing NOW accounts was partially caused by the increases in
Government Entity deposits, which balances fluctuate during the year.

         Stockholders' equity at June 30, 2000 was $28.6 million or $6.1 million
less than at June 30, 1999. This decline is due to the Company's repurchase of
525,281 treasury shares at a cost of $6.3 million, and the payment of a $0.05
per share quarterly cash dividend in each quarter this fiscal year. Accumulated
other comprehensive loss was $903,000 and $480,000 at June 30, 2000 and 1999
respectively, representing the decline in the market value of the securities
held in the available-for-sale portfolio.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 1999

         GENERAL. For the year ended June 30, 2000, net income was $459,000 or
$0.24 basic and diluted earnings per share, compared to $818,000 or $0.37 basic
and diluted earnings per share for the year ended June 30, 1999.

         INTEREST INCOME. Interest income was $13.7 million for the year ended
June 30, 2000, compared to $13.9 million for the year ended June 30, 1999. The
average balance of interest earning assets decreased $5.0 million from $208.2
million for the year ended June 30, 1999 to



                                       13

<PAGE>
                               2000 ANNUAL REPORT
================================================================================


$203.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2000. Generally, yields earned on new
mortgage loan originations were higher than rates earned on MBS repayments, as a
result the average yield on the Bank's interest-earning assets increased four
basis points from 6.68% for the year ended June 30, 1999 to 6.72% for the year
ended June 30, 2000.

         INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased $91,000 and was $7.4
million for the year ended June 30, 2000. This decrease was due primarily to a
lower cost of funds. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities
decreased three basis points from 4.43% for the year ended June 30, 1999 to
4.40% for the year ended June 30, 2000. The average balance of interest-bearing
liabilities decreased $1.0 million to $169.2 million for the year ended June 30,
2000 from $170.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1999.

         NET INTEREST INCOME BEFORE PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. Net interest
income before provision for loan losses decreased $158,000 and was $6.2 million
for the year ended June 30, 2000. The average interest rate spread was 2.32% for
the year ended June 30, 2000 and 2.25% in 1999. Net interest margin was
unchanged at 3.06% for the years ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.

         PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. There was no provision for loan losses for
the years ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.

         NONINTEREST INCOME. Noninterest income was $303,000 for the year ended
June 30, 2000 compared to $284,000 for the year ended June 30, 1999.

         NONINTEREST EXPENSE, Noninterest expense increased $519,000 from $5.4
million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999 to $5.9 million for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 2000. Compensation and benefits expense increased $179,000
to $3.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000.

         Approximately $75,000 of the compensation expense increase is
attributable to discontinuation of a deferred compensation program, which
resulted in an additional, one time expense of 5% of covered employees' salary.
The change was necessary to maintain fairness and equity in treating employees.
Compensation expense also increased due to normal salary increases.

         Pension expense for the year ended June 30, 2000 was approximately
$90,000 greater than the preceding year, primarily because pension expense in
the preceding year was reduced due to a change in estimated pension liability.

         The loss on the July 1999 sale of Olympia Fields property was provided
for by the Company in the quarter ended June 30, 1999, through the establishment
of a loss accrual of $108,000.

         Professional services expense increased $578,000 to $897,000 for the
year ended June 30, 2000. The bulk of this expenditure was an expected increased
outlay made for final preparation to bring to trial a suit for damages
pertaining to a real estate development known as The Trails of Olympia Fields.
This trial, which was scheduled for May 2000, was summarily


                                       14

================================================================================



postponed by the trial judge in order to deal with the issue of punitive
damages. A new trial date has not yet been set.

         At the same time, the Company's attorneys became aware of what the
Company and its counsel believe is material evidence that implicates not only
the defendants, but also one of their attorneys in alleged misconduct in the
defense of their case. As a result, additional depositions were necessitated.
Also, the Bank's co-plaintiff went through a bankruptcy without disclosing this
suit as an asset. The co-plaintiff's bankruptcy case has since been reopened,
and the Bank has incurred expenses related to filing a claim as a creditor, and
to maintain control of the direction of the suit. The Bank did not anticipate
these increased expenses. Overall, the Bank's position has been strengthened,
but not without cost, and the Company believes it will ultimately prevail on the
merits of the case.

         Other noninterest expense was $687,000 for the year ended June 30, 2000
compared to $786,000 for the year ended June 30, 1999. This decrease was
primarily due to a reduction in loan origination expenses, customer related
losses and expenses relating to the Year 2000 issue.

         INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Income tax expense decreased $299,000 from $472,000
for the year ended June 30, 1999 to $173,000 for the year ended June 30, 2000.
This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $658,000 in pre-tax income and
a decrease in the effective tax rate. The effective tax rate was 27.4% and 36.6%
for the years ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The decrease in the
effective tax rate was primarily due to an increase in dividend received
deductions recorded in fiscal year 2000 for dividends received on the Company's
investments in mutual funds and preferred stock.

COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT JUNE 30, 1999 AND JUNE 30, 1998

         Total assets decreased $5.1 million from $220.6 million at June 30,
1998 to $215.5 million at June 30, 1999. The components of the Company's asset
base also changed from June 30, 1998 to June 30, 1999. Mortgage-backed
securities ("MBS") (including both held-to-maturity and available-for-sale
portfolios) decreased $25.7 million from $79.7 million at June 30, 1998 to $54.0
million at June 30, 1999. This decrease was primarily due to $35.0 million in
principal repayments which was partially offset by the purchase of $10.1 million
of MBS during the twelve month period. An increase of $23.0 million in loans
receivable from $115.5 million at June 30, 1998 to $138.5 million at June 30,
1999, was the result of loan originations of $44.4 million which exceeded the
$21.4 million of loan repayments. Interest earning deposits decreased $2.3
million from $9.8 million at June 30, 1998 to $7.5 million at June 30, 1999.

         Investments in mutual funds and preferred stock are recorded on the
balance sheet at fair value and were $3.3 million and $2.6 million at June 30,
1999 and 1998, respectively. The net unrealized gain or loss in this portfolio
is included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). See
Note 2, to the Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information.

         The Company, in July 1999, sold its remaining parcel of real estate
held for development in Olympia Fields by means of an auction. The cost basis of
the property at June 30, 1999, was

================================================================================



$262,000; the sale price, net of selling costs, was approximately $154,000
resulting in a loss of approximately $108,000. A loss accrual was recorded by
the Company in the quarter ended June 30, 1999 for this amount. Through the sale
of this property, the Company expects to benefit in future years from a
reduction of operating expenses related to the property of approximately $40,000
annually and from the ability to invest the proceeds of the sale in
income-earning assets.

         The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 1999 and 1998 was $300,000.
The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.22% and 0.26% at
June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. At June 30, 1999 and 1998, the ratio of
the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 155.44% and 87.72%,
respectively. The Bank had three non-performing loans totaling approximately
$193,000 at June 30, 1999 and three non-performing loans totaling approximately
$342,000 at June 30, 1998. There were no loan chargeoffs during the fiscal years
June 30, 1999 and 1998.

         Savings deposits increased $82,000 from June 30, 1998 to June 30, 1999;
during this time, borrowed funds decreased by $1.0 million. The savings
categories of money market demand accounts, and certificates of deposit
decreased $2.9 million, while passbook accounts increased $0.5 million, and NOW
accounts increased $2.4 million. The increase in NOW accounts was partially
caused by the increases in Government Entity deposits, whose balances fluctuate
during the year.

         Stockholders' equity at June 30, 1999 was $34.7 million or $3.4 million
less than at June 30, 1998. This decline was due to the purchase of 69,269
shares of the Company's common stock for the Recognition and Retention Plan and
the repurchase of 241,801 treasury shares by the Company, at a cost of $3.3
million, pursuant to the Company's first and second Repurchase Programs.
Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was $(480,354) and $36,377 at June
30, 1999 and 1998 respectively, representing the decline in the market value of
the securities held in the available-for-sale portfolio.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998

         GENERAL. For the year ended June 30, 1999, net income was $818,000 or
$0.37 basic and diluted earnings per share, compared to $1.2 million or $0.50
basic and $0.49 diluted earnings per share for the year ended June 30, 1998.

         INTEREST INCOME. Interest income was $13.9 million for the year ended
June 30, 1999, compared to $14.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1998. The
average balance of interest earning assets increased $2.6 million from $205.5
million for the year ended June 30, 1998 to $208.1 million for the year ended
June 30, 1999. Generally, yields earned on new mortgage loan originations were
lower than rates earned on loan repayments, as a result the average yield on the
Bank's interest-earning assets decreased 22 basis points from 6.90% for the year
ended June 30, 1998 to 6.68% for the year ended June 30, 1999.

         INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased $0.2 million and was $7.5
million for the year ended June 30, 1999. This decrease was due primarily to a
lower cost of funds. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities
decreased 21 basis points from 4.64% for the year


                                       16

================================================================================



ended June 30, 1998 to 4.43% for the year ended June 30, 1999. The average
balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $3.6 million to $170.2 million
for the year ended June 30, 1999 from $166.6 million for the year ended June 30,
1998.

         NET INTEREST INCOME BEFORE PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. Net interest
income before provision for loan losses decreased $72,000 and was $6.4 million
for the year ended June 30, 1999. The average interest rate spread was 2.25% for
the year ended June 30, 1999 and 2.26% in 1998. Net interest margin declined
seven basis points and was 3.06% for the year ended June 30, 1999.

         PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. There was no provision for loan losses for
the years ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.

         NONINTEREST INCOME. Noninterest income was $284,000 for the year ended
June 30, 1999 compared to $724,000 for the year ended June 30, 1998. The primary
reason for the decrease was due to a $470,000 gain that was realized from a sale
in 1998 of $10.7 million of securities classified as available-for-sale.

         NONINTEREST EXPENSE. Noninterest expense increased $91,000 for the year
ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the year ended June 30, 1998.

         Compensation and benefits totaled $2.9 million for both years ended
June 30, 1999 and 1998; however, there were changes in some of the components.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") expense declined $110,000 for the year
ended June 30, 1999. The cost of the ESOP is partially related to the Company's
average common stock price; therefore the lower average common stock price of
the Company during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999 decreased the expense for
shares released to the ESOP compared to the prior year. Also, pension expense
decreased from the prior year due to a change in estimated pension liability.
These decreases were offset by an increase in expense of the Recognition and
Retention Plan ("RRP") of $252,000, and increases in salaries and other employee
benefits. The RRP, which was implemented in January 1998, had six months of
expense in 1998 compared to twelve months of expense in 1999.

         Office occupancy expense was $1,090,000 for the year ended June 30,
1999, compared to $1,043,000 for the same period in 1998. This was primarily due
to increased furniture and fixture depreciation expense, resulting from the
purchase of new ATMs and in-house data processing equipment.

         The loss on the sale of Olympia Fields property was provided for by the
Company in the quarter ended June 30, 1999, through the establishment of a loss
accrual of $108,000. Through the sale of this property, the Company expects to
benefit in future years from a reduction of operating expenses related to the
property of approximately $40,000 annually and from the ability to invest the
proceeds of the sale in income-earning assets.

================================================================================


         Professional services expense decreased $22,000 to $319,000 for the
year ended June 30, 1999. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in
legal fees associated with an ongoing litigation regarding a real estate
development known as The Trails of Olympia Fields.

         Other noninterest expense was $787,000 for the year ended June 30, 1999
compared to $833,000 for the year ended June 30, 1998. This decrease was
primarily due to a one time $40,000 State of Illinois franchise payment in 1998
and a reduction of advertising expense in 1999. This decrease was partially
offset by an increase of $31,000 in 1999 relating to the Year 2000 issue.

         INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Income tax expense decreased $240,000 from $712,000
for the year ended June 30, 1998 to $472,000 for the year ended June 30, 1999.
This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $602,000 in pre-tax income and
a decrease in the effective tax rate. The effective tax rate was 36.6% and 37.6%
for the years ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The term "liquidity" as used by a savings bank refers to the ability of
the institution to produce sufficient cash to meet withdrawals, fund loan
commitments and pay operating expenses. Cash needed to fund these requirements
is generated by savings deposits, loan repayments, securities sales, FHLB
advances, and other sources of income.

         The Bank's primary sources of funds are savings deposits, principal and
interest payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, and borrowings from
the FHLB. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and
mortgage-backed securities provide an indication of the timing of the receipt of
funds, changes in interest rates, economic conditions and competition strongly
influence mortgage prepayment rates and savings deposit flows, reducing the
predictability of the timing of sources of funds. Cash flow from operating
activities amounted to $2.6, $1.6 and $1.6 million for the 2000, 1999 and 1998
fiscal years, respectively.

         The Bank is required by the OTS to maintain an average daily balance of
liquid assets (cash, certain time deposits, bankers' acceptances, specified
United States Government, state or federal agency obligations, shares of certain
mutual funds and certain corporate debt securities and commercial paper) equal
to a monthly average of not less than a specified percentage of its net
withdrawable deposit accounts plus short-term borrowings. This liquidity
requirement may be changed from time to time by the OTS to any amount within the
range of 4% to 10% depending upon economic conditions and the savings flows of
member institutions, and is currently 4%. At June 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998 the
Bank's liquidity ratio was 33.6%, 50.1% and 60.8%, respectively. Management
believes it will have adequate resources to fund all commitments on a short term
and long term basis in accordance with its business strategy. The Bank's
liquidity ratio is high due to the amount of mortgage-backed securities in the
portfolio. The levels of the Bank's short-term liquid assets are dependent on
the Bank's operating, financing and investing activities during any given
period.

         The primary investing activities of the Bank are the origination of
mortgage and other loans and the purchase and sale of mortgage-backed and other
securities. During the fiscal years

================================================================================



ended June 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998 the Bank's disbursements for loan
originations totaled $32.5, $44.1 and $39.4 million, respectively. These
activities were funded primarily by principal repayments on loans and
securities. During the 2000 fiscal year, there was $5.9 million net cash used in
investing activities. Net cash flows provided by investing activities amounted
to $1.0 and $3.9 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.

         For the 2000 fiscal year, the Company repurchased $6.3 million of
Company common stock; also the Bank had an $8.4 million net decrease in deposits
(including the effect of interest credited). For the 1999 fiscal year, the Bank
experienced net increases in deposits (including the effect of interest
credited) of $82,000 and for fiscal year 1998, an increase of $854,000.
Management believes that the reduction in deposits resulted, in part, from the
disintermediation of funds away from savings institutions into direct
investments, such as corporate securities, mutual funds and other investment
vehicles, which direct investments, because of the absence of federal deposit
insurance premiums and reserve requirements, among other reasons, may pay higher
rates of return than savings institutions.

         Net cash flows used in financing activities amounted to $1.0 million
and $5.2 for the year ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Net cash flows
provided by financing activities amounted to $3.7 million for the 1998 fiscal
year.

         The Bank's most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents, which
consist of short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of less
than three months that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and
interest-earning deposits. The level of these assets is dependent on the Bank's
operating, financing and investing activities during any given period. At June
30, 2000, 1999 and 1998, cash and cash equivalents totaled $6.3, $10.6 and $13.1
million, respectively.

         The Bank has other sources of liquidity if a need for additional funds
arises, including the ability to obtain additional FHLB advances. The Bank had
$66.0 and $52.0 million, outstanding in FHLB advances at June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The Bank utilizes borrowings primarily to offset outflows in
deposits at times when the Bank does not believe that it can replace such funds
with lower costing deposit products. In addition, the Bank has used borrowed
funds to fund the purchase of mortgage-backed securities at times when the
spread between the rate paid on the borrowed funds and the yield earned on such
securities was favorable.

         At June 30, 2000, the Bank had outstanding mortgage loan origination
commitments of $4.1 million and unused lines of consumer credit of $710,000. The
Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its
current origination and other lending commitments. Certificates of deposit
scheduled to mature in one year or less from June 30, 2000 totaled $38.4
million. Based upon the Bank's most recent pricing strategy, management believes
that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with the Bank.

         At June 30, 2000, the Bank exceeded all of its regulatory capital
requirements with a tangible capital level of $21.6 million, or 10.28% of total
adjusted assets, which is above the required level of $3.1 million or 1.50%;
core capital of $21.6 million, or 10.28% of total adjusted assets, which is
above the required level of $6.3 million or 3.0%; and total risk-based capital
of

$21.9 million, or 22.9% of risk-weighted assets, which is above the required
level of $7.6 million, or 8.0% of risk-weighted assets.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES

         The Company's consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto
presented herein have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles, which generally require the measurement of financial
position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without
considering the changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due
to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the
Bank's operations. Unlike industrial companies, nearly all of the assets and
liabilities of the Bank are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have
a greater impact on the Bank's performance than do the effects of general levels
of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to
the same extent as the price of goods and services.

BIG FOOT FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2000, 1999, and 1998
================================================================================





  (1)   SUMMARY OF Significant ACCOUNTING POLICIES

        Big Foot Financial Corp. and subsidiary (the Company) prepares its
        financial statements on the basis of generally accepted accounting
        principles in the United States of America. The following is a
        description of the more significant of those policies which the Company
        follows in preparing and presenting its financial statements.

                  PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

                  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
                  Big Foot Financial Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiary,
                  Fairfield Savings Bank, F.S.B. All significant intercompany
                  balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

                  USE OF ESTIMATES

                  The preparation of 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 these
                  estimates.

                  MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES

                  Mortgage-backed securities which the Company has the positive
                  intent and ability to hold to maturity are carried at
                  amortized cost. All other mortgage-backed securities are
                  designated as available-for-sale and are carried at fair
                  value. The difference between amortized cost and fair value of
                  the available-for-sale portfolio is reflected as a separate
                  component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of
                  related tax effects. Unearned premiums and discounts are
                  amortized over the estimated life of the security using the
                  interest method. Gains and losses on the sale of
                  mortgage-backed securities are determined using the specific
                  identification method.

                  INVESTMENT IN MUTUAL FUNDS AND PREFERRED STOCK

                  Investment in mutual funds and preferred stock is designated
                  as available-for-sale and is carried at fair value. The
                  difference between amortized cost and fair value is reflected
                  as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive
                  income, net of related tax effects. If a decrease in the
                  market value of a security is expected to be other than
                  temporary, then the security is written down to its fair value
                  through a charge to income. Gains and losses on the sale of
                  investments in mutual funds and preferred stock are determined
                  using the specific identification method.

                  LOANS RECEIVABLE

                  Loans receivable are stated at unpaid principal balances less
                  deferred loan fees and the allowance for loan losses. The
                  Company defers loan origination fees and certain direct costs
                  associated with loan originations. Net deferred fees are
                  amortized as yield adjustments over the contractual life of
                  the related loans using the interest method.

                  It is the policy of the Company to provide valuation
                  allowances for estimated losses on loans when any significant
                  and permanent decline in value is identified. Periodic reviews
                  are made to



                                                                     (Continued}

                  identify potential problems. In addition to specific
                  allowances, the Company maintains a general allowance for loan
                  losses. Additions to the allowance for loan losses are charged
                  to operations. Also, various regulatory agencies, as an
                  integral part of their examination process, periodically
                  review the Company's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies
                  may require the Company to recognize additions to the
                  allowance based on their judgments using information available
                  to them at the time of their examination. In the opinion of
                  management, the allowance for loan losses, when taken as a
                  whole, is adequate to absorb losses in the loan portfolio.

                  The accrual of interest income is suspended and previously
                  accrued interest income is reversed when a loan is
                  contractually delinquent for 90 days or more and where
                  collection of interest is doubtful. Accrual is resumed when
                  the loan becomes less than 90 days contractually delinquent
                  and collection of interest is probable.

                  Impaired loans are measured at the present value of expected
                  future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest
                  rate, or, at the loan's observable market price or the fair
                  value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
                  Impaired loans exclude homogeneous loans that are collectively
                  evaluated for impairment, including one- to four-family
                  residential real estate loans and consumer loans.

                   FORECLOSED REAL ESTATE

                  Foreclosed real estate represents real estate acquired through
                  foreclosure which is recorded at the lower of cost or fair
                  value less estimated costs to sell. After foreclosure,
                  additional reserves are recorded as necessary to reflect
                  further impairment of the estimated net realizable value.

                  DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

                  Depreciation of office properties and equipment and
                  amortization of leasehold improvements are recorded using the
                  straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
                  related assets. Estimated useful lives range between 3 and 40
                  years.

                  INCOME TAXES

                  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
                  future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences
                  between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing
                  assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well
                  as operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax
                  assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
                  expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
                  those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
                  settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of
                  a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
                  that includes the enactment date.


                                                                     (Continued)

                  EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN (ESOP)

                  Compensation expense under the ESOP is equal to the fair value
                  of common shares released or committed to be released annually
                  to participants in the ESOP. Common stock purchased by the
                  ESOP and not allocated to participants is included in the
                  consolidated balance sheets at cost as a reduction of
                  stockholders' equity. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are
                  recorded as a reduction of stockholders' equity; dividends on
                  unallocated ESOP shares are used to pay debt service on the
                  ESOP loan.

                  STOCK OPTION PLAN

                  As allowed under the Financing Accounting Standards Board's
                  (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123
                  (Statement 123), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation",
                  the Company measures stock-based compensation cost in
                  accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
                  "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Company has
                  included in note 11 the impact of the fair value of employee
                  stock-based compensation plans on net income and earnings per
                  share on a pro forma basis for awards granted since January 1,
                  1997, pursuant to Statement 123.

                  EARNINGS PER SHARE

                  Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing income
                  available to common stockholders by the weighted average
                  number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per
                  share is calculated by dividing income available to common
                  stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
                  adjusted for the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options.

                  ESOP shares are only considered outstanding for earnings per
                  share calculations when they are committed to be released.


                                                                     (Continued)

              COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

              Comprehensive income includes net income as well as certain items
              that are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity
              that bypass net income. Currently, the Company's only component of
              other comprehensive income is the unrealized gains (losses) on
              securities available-for-sale.

              CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

              For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all
              highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of three
              months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents
              also include cash on hand and due from banks.

              RECLASSIFICATIONS

              Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to
              the 2000 financial statement presentation.

        The Company has Illinois net operating loss carryforwards in the amount
        of $5,612,000 at June 30, 2000, which expire in varying amounts through
        July 31, 2015.

        The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was $265,942 and
        $270,302 as of June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, resulting in a
        decrease of $4,360 for the year ended June 30, 2000. The valuation
        allowance relates to state net operating loss carryforwards and certain
        deductible temporary differences which may not generate future state tax
        benefits. The reduction in the valuation allowance is primarily due to
        the utilization of state net operating loss carryforwards in the current
        year.

        Retained earnings at June 30, 2000 and 1999 include $6,149,000 for which
        no provision for Federal income tax has been made. These amounts
        represent allocations of income to bad debt deductions for tax purposes
        only. Reduction of amounts so allocated for purposes other than tax bad
        debt losses will create income for tax purposes only, which will be
        subject to the then current Federal and state corporate income tax
        rates.


                                                                     (Continued)

  (9)   OFFICER, DIRECTOR, AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

              EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN (ESOP)

              In conjunction with the Savings Bank's conversion, the Company
              formed an ESOP. The ESOP covers substantially all employees that
              are age 21 or over and with at least 1,000 hours of service. The
              ESOP borrowed $2,010,200 from the Company and purchased 201,020
              common shares issued in the conversion. The Savings Bank intends
              to make discretionary contributions to the ESOP sufficient to
              service the requirements of the loan over a period of ten years.

              During the years ended June 30, 2000, 1999, and 1998, 20,102
              shares were allocated annually. A total of 70,357 and 50,255
              shares had been allocated as of June 30, 2000 and 1999,
              respectively. The fair value of unallocated shares totaled
              $1,445,459 and $2,261,475 at June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
              ESOP expense for the years ended June 30, 2000, 1999, and 1998
              totaled $247,786, $283,063, and $392,994, respectively.

              RECOGNITION AND RETENTION PLAN (RRP)

              On December 22, 1997, the Company adopted an RRP and 4%, or
              100,510 shares, of the common stock issued in the Company's
              initial public offering were granted to eligible directors and
              certain key officers of the Company. Shares vest as follows: 10%
              on June 30, 1998; 20% on June 30, 1999, 2000, 2001, and 2002; and
              10% on January 1, 2003. Compensation expense relating to the above
              shares totaled $1,934,818, the fair value of the shares on the
              date of grant, and is being recognized as the participants vest in
              those shares.

              In February 1999, an additional 3,149 RRP shares were granted, of
              which 804 and 335 shares vested at June 30, 2000 and 1999,
              respectively. In addition, 804 shares will vest at June 30, 2001
              and 2002, respectively, and 402 shares will vest at June 30, 2003.
              Compensation expense relating to the additional RRP shares totaled
              $40,347, the fair value of the shares on the date of grant, and is
              being recognized as the participants vest in those shares.

              During the years ended June 30, 2000, 1999, and 1998, 20,101,
              23,248, and 10,051 RRP shares vested, respectively, and for the
              years ended June 30, 2000, 1999, and 1998, the Company recorded
              RRP compensation expense of $381,768, $445,366, and $193,482,
              respectively.

              During the years ended June 30, 2000, 1999, and 1998, 3,316,
              69,269, and 37,660 shares of the Company's common stock were
              purchased by the RRP in the open market at weighted average prices
              of $11.06, $15.94, and $19.43 per share, respectively. The
              aggregate purchase price of all unvested shares acquired by the
              RRP is reflected as a reduction of stockholders' equity as
              deferred compensation.

              PENSION PLAN

              The Savings Bank has a qualified noncontributory pension plan
              covering employees over 21 years of age working more than 1,000
              hours per year.


                                                                     (Continued)

        The Company also has a contributory profit-sharing and savings plan
        covering substantially all full-time employees. The Company makes
        matching contributions to the plan equal to a percentage of each
        participant's contribution for the plan year. For the years ended June
        30, 2000, 1999, and 1998, the Company made contributions of $19,164,
        $17,850, and $16,803, respectively.

 (10)   STOCK OPTION PLAN

        On June 24, 1997, the Company adopted a stock option plan (the Plan)
        pursuant to which the Company's Board of Directors may grant stock
        options to directors, officers, and employees of the Company and the
        Savings Bank. Stock options for 251,275 shares initially granted under
        the Plan vest at a rate of 20% per year beginning on the first
        anniversary date of the grant. During the year ended June 30, 1999, an
        additional 6,868 shares were granted. As of June 30, 2000, a total of
        2,842 of these additional shares have vested and the remaining shares
        vest as follows: 2,010 shares at June 24, 2001 and 2002, respectively.
        The exercise price of shares granted is equal to the fair value of the
        common stock at the date of grant. The option term cannot exceed ten
        years from the date of grant.

        The per share weighted average fair value of stock options granted
        during 1999 was $7.59 on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
        option pricing model. The following weighted average assumptions were
        used for grants issued in 1999: an expected dividend yield of 0.0%,
        expected volatility of 23.96%, risk-free interest rate of 5.39%, and an
        expected life of 8.2 years. There were no stock options granted during
        the years ended June 30, 2000 and 1998.


                                                                     (Continued)

        Under FASB Statement 123, the Company is required to disclose pro forma
        net income and earnings per share as if compensation expense relative to
        the fair value of options granted had been included in earnings. Had the
        Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the
        grant date for its stock options under Statement 123, the Company's net
        income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma
        amounts indicated below for the years ended June 30:

(11)    REGULATORY MATTERS

        The Savings Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements
        administered by its primary federal regulator, the Office of Thrift
        Supervision (OTS). Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can
        initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions
        by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect
        on the Company's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines
        and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Savings
        Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative
        measures of the entity's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance
        sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The
        Savings Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to
        qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk
        weightings, and other factors.

        Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital
        adequacy require the Savings Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios
        (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital to
        risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to adjusted total assets and
        of tangible capital to adjusted total assets. As of June 30, 2000 and
        1999, the most recent notification from the OTS categorized the Savings
        Bank as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework. At June 30,
        2000, there are no conditions or events since the most recent
        notification that management believes would affect the Savings Bank's
        category.

        The following table summarizes the Company's and the Savings Bank's
        actual capital and the Savings Bank's required capital at June 30, 2000
        and 1999 (dollars in thousands):

(12)    CREDIT CONCENTRATION AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
                  WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

        The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet
        risk in the normal course of its business. These instruments are
        commitments to originate loans and involve credit and interest rate risk
        in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

        Commitments to originate fixed rate mortgage loans at June 30, 2000 were
        approximately $4,129,000 at rates ranging between 7.625% and 8.50%.
        Commitments to fund new and existing home equity lines of credit of
        approximately $70,000 and $710,000, respectively, at June 30, 2000
        represent amounts which the Company has committed to fund if requested
        by the borrower within the normal commitment period. The Company
        evaluates each customer's creditworthiness prior to extension of credit,
        as it does for loans recorded on the consolidated balance sheet.

        The majority of the Company's loans are secured by residential real
        estate in the Chicago metropolitan area. Management believes the Company
        has a diversified loan portfolio, and the concentration of lending
        activities in these local communities does not result in an acute
        dependency upon economic conditions of the lending region.


                                                                     (Continued)

(13)    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

        The Company is involved in various legal proceedings incidental to the
        normal course of business. Although the outcome of such litigation
        cannot be predicted with any certainty, management is of the opinion,
        based on the advice of legal counsel, that final disposition of any
        litigation should not have a material effect on the consolidated
        financial statements of the Company.

        In connection with the development of the Trails of Olympia Fields (a
        planned unit development of homesites and commercial land developed by
        the Savings Bank and its subsidiary in prior years), the Company
        initiated action against a municipality and certain parties involved in
        the development. During the year ended June 30, 1996, the Bank received
        $184,415 in full settlement of claims against the municipality.

        A trial date regarding the remaining claims, previously scheduled for
        May 2000, has been postponed by the trial judge and a new trial date has
        not yet been set. The Company expects to incur additional legal and
        other expenses in connection with this action.

        In July 1999, the Company sold its remaining parcel of real estate held
        for sale and development in Olympia Fields by means of an auction. The
        cost basis of the property at June 30, 1999 was $262,259; the sale
        price, net of selling costs, was approximately $154,000 resulting in a
        loss of approximately $108,000. A loss accrual was recorded by the
        Company in fiscal 1999 for this amount.

(14)    DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS

        The OTS imposes limitations upon all capital distributions by savings
        institutions, including cash dividends. An institution that exceeds all
        fully phased-in capital requirements before and after a proposed capital
        distribution (Tier 1 Association) and has not been advised by the OTS
        that it is in need of more than normal supervision could, after prior
        notice but without the approval of the OTS, make capital distributions
        during a calendar year up to the higher of (i) 100% of its net income to
        date during the calendar year, plus the amount that would reduce by 1/2
        its surplus capital ratio (the excess capital over its fully phased-in
        capital requirements) at the beginning of the calendar year; or (ii) 75%
        of its net income over the most recent four-quarter period. Any
        additional capital distributions would require prior regulatory
        approval.


                                                                     (Continued)

(15)    FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

        FASB Statement 107, "Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial
        Instruments," requires the disclosure of estimated fair values of all
        asset, liability, and off-balance sheet financial instruments. Statement
        107 defines fair value as the amount at which the instrument could be
        exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. Fair value
        estimates, methods, and assumptions are set forth below for the
        Company's financial instruments:

================================================================================


              CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS AND INTEREST-EARNING DEPOSITS

              The carrying value of cash and due from banks and interest-earning
              deposits approximates fair value due to the short period of time
              between origination of the instruments and their expected
              realization.

              MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES AND INVESTMENT IN
                 MUTUAL FUNDS AND PREFERRED STOCK

              The fair value of mortgage-backed securities and investment in
              mutual funds and preferred stock is estimated based on quoted
              market prices.

              LOANS RECEIVABLE, NET

              Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar
              financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type and then
              further segmented into fixed and variable rate interest terms and
              by performing and nonperforming categories. The fair value of
              performing fixed rate loans is calculated by discounting
              contractual cash flows adjusted for prepayment estimates, using
              discount rates based on new loan rates adjusted to reflect
              differences in servicing and credit costs. For variable rate
              loans, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value
              as these loans reprice frequently or have a relatively short term
              to maturity and there has been little or no change in credit
              quality since origination. Fair value for nonperforming loans is
              calculated by discounting estimated future cash flows using a rate
              commensurate with the risk associated with the cash flows.

              ACCRUED INTEREST RECEIVABLE

              The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates
              its fair value due to the relatively short period of time between
              accrual and expected realization.

              FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK OF CHICAGO STOCK

              The fair value of this stock is based on its redemption value.

              SAVINGS DEPOSITS

              Under Statement 107, the fair value of deposits with no stated
              maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand deposits, NOW
              accounts, money market accounts, and passbook accounts, is equal
              to the amount payable on demand as of the date of estimate. The
              fair value of certificates of deposit is based on the discounted
              value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated
              using the rates offered for deposits of similar remaining
              maturities. If the estimated fair value is less than the amount
              payable on demand, the fair value disclosed is the amount payable.
              The fair value estimates do not include the benefit that results
              from the low-cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities
              compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the market.


                                                                     (Continued)

================================================================================


              BORROWED MONEY

              The fair value of FHLB advances is based on the discounted value
              of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using
              the rates offered for FHLB advances of similar remaining
              maturities.

              ACCRUED INTEREST PAYABLE

              The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its
              fair value due to the relatively short period of time between
              accrual and expected realization.

              LIMITATIONS

              The fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time
              based on relevant market information and information about the
              financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant
              portion of the Company's financial instruments, fair value
              estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and
              matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be
              determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could
              significantly affect the estimates.

              In addition, the fair value estimates are based on existing on-
              and off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to
              estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of
              assets and liabilities that are not considered financial
              instruments. Significant assets and liabilities that are not
              considered financial assets or liabilities include the mortgage
              origination operation, deferred taxes, and office properties and
              equipment. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the
              realization of unrealized gains and losses can have a significant
              effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in any
              of the estimates.


                                                                     (Continued)
