Forward-Looking Statements

     FMS Financial Corporation (the "Corporation" or "Registrant") may from time
to time make written or oral "forward-looking  statements," including statements
contained  in  the  Corporation's  filings  with  the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission (including this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the exhibits thereto),
in its reports to stockholders and in other  communications  by the Corporation,
which are made in good faith by the  Corporation  pursuant to the "safe  harbor"
provisions of the private securities litigation reform act of 1995.

     These forward-looking  statements involve risks and uncertainties,  such as
statements of the Corporation's plans, objectives,  expectations,  estimates and
intentions,  that are subject to change based on various important factors (some
of which are beyond the Corporation's  control).  The following  factors,  among
others, could cause the Corporation's financial performance to differ materially
from the plans, objectives,  expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in
such  forward-looking  statements:  the strength of the United States economy in
general  and the  strength  of the  local  economies  in which  the  Corporation
conducts operations;  the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal
policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the board of governors of
the federal  reserve  system,  inflation,  interest  rate,  market and  monetary
fluctuations;  the timely  development  of and  acceptance  of new  products and
services of the  Corporation  and the perceived  overall value of these products
and services by users,  including the features,  pricing and quality compared to
competitors'  products and  services;  the  willingness  of users to  substitute
competitors' products and services for the Corporation's  products and services;
the success of the  Corporation in gaining  regulatory  approval of its products
and services,  when required;  the impact of changes in financial services' laws
and  regulations  (including  laws  concerning  taxes,  banking,  securities and
insurance);  technological changes,  acquisitions;  changes in consumer spending
and saving  habits;  and the success of the  Corporation  at managing  the risks
involved in the foregoing.

     The  Corporation  cautions that the foregoing list of important  factors is
not exclusive.  The Corporation does not undertake to update any forward-looking
statement,  whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on
behalf of the Corporation.

Item 1.  Business
-----------------

General

     FMS  Financial  Corporation,  a New Jersey  corporation,  headquartered  in
Burlington,  New Jersey,  is the holding  company for Farmers and Mechanics Bank
(the "Bank").  The Corporation conducts no significant business or operations of
its own other than holding all of the outstanding common stock of the Bank. As a
result,  references to the  Corporation  or Registrant  generally  refers to the
consolidated entity which includes the main operating company,  the Bank, unless
the context indicates otherwise.

     The Registrant principally operates through its thirty-four banking offices
located in  Burlington  and Camden  Counties,  New  Jersey.  The  Registrant  is
primarily engaged in the business of attracting deposits from the general public
and originating  loans which are secured by residential real estate. To a lesser
extent, the Registrant also originates  consumer,  commercial business loans and
construction   loans   and   invests   in   U.S.   government   securities   and
mortgage-related securities.

<PAGE>



     On January 25,  2001,  the  Corporation  announced  that it entered into an
Agreement  and Plan of Merger  Conversion  with  CloverBank of  Pennsauken,  New
Jersey. The merger became effective on June 1, 2001 whereby CloverBank converted
to the  stock  form of  organization  and  simultaneously  merged  with and into
Farmers and Mechanics Bank.

Competition

     The  Registrant's  primary  market area consists of  Burlington  and Camden
Counties,  New Jersey,  and is one of many financial  institutions  serving this
market area.  The  competition  for deposit  products  comes from other  insured
financial  institutions such as commercial banks, thrift institutions and credit
unions in the  Registrant's  market area.  Deposit  competition  also includes a
number of insurance  products sold by local agents and investment  products such
as mutual funds and other  securities sold by local and regional  brokers.  Loan
competition comes from other insured  financial  institutions such as commercial
banks, thrift institutions and credit unions.

     One-to-Four  Family  Loans.  The  Registrant's   primary  lending  activity
consists of the  origination of one-to-four  family  residential  mortgage loans
("residential  loans") secured by the property in the Registrant's  market area.
The Registrant's  residential loan portfolio also includes second mortgage loans
and home  equity  loans  (including  home  equity  lines of credit  loans).  The
Registrant  generally  originates  mortgage  loans with terms of 15 to 30 years,
amortized  on a monthly  basis,  with  principal  and  interest  due each month.
Typically,  residential  loans  remain  outstanding  for  significantly  shorter
periods than their  contractual  terms because borrowers may refinance or prepay
loans at their option.


                                        2

<PAGE>



     The Registrant  presently offers  residential  loans that adjust every year
after an initial  fixed term of one,  two,  five or seven years,  at an interest
rate indexed higher than the  corresponding  U.S.  Treasury  security index. The
interest rates on these  mortgages  adjust  annually after the one, two, five or
seven year  anniversary date of the loan with an interest rate adjustment cap of
1.5% per year and  presently  not to exceed a rate of 11.5% over the life of the
loan. At December 31, 2001,  adjustable-rate  residential  first  mortgage loans
amounted to $39.2  million or 11.47% of the total  residential  loan  portfolio.
These  loans  are  generally  not   originated   under  terms,   conditions  and
documentation  which  permit  their  sale in the  secondary  mortgage  market to
Federal Home Loan Mortgage  Corporation  ("FHLMC") and Federal National Mortgage
Association ("FNMA").

     Fixed-rate mortgage loans are generally underwritten according to FHLMC and
FNMA  guidelines.   The  Registrant   periodically  sells  selected   fixed-rate
residential loans, without recourse, to provide additional funds for lending and
to restructure the loan portfolio to improve interest rate risk.  Generally,  if
the property is not owner-occupied, a higher rate of interest is charged on such
loans. At December 31, 2001, $199.0 million,  or 58.27% of the total residential
loan portfolio, consisted of long-term fixed-rate first mortgage loans, of which
none were classified as held for sale.

     The Registrant's lending policies generally limit the maximum loan-to-value
ratio on owner- occupied  residential  first mortgage loans to 97% of the lesser
of the  appraised  value or purchase  price,  with the  condition  that  private
mortgage insurance is required on loans with  loan-to-value  ratios in excess of
80%. Mortgage loans on investment properties are made at loan-to-value ratios up
to 70%. The loan-to-  value ratio,  maturity and other  provisions  of the loans
made by the Registrant  have generally  reflected the policy of making less than
the maximum loan permissible  under applicable  regulations,  in accordance with
established  lending  practices,  market  conditions and underwriting  standards
maintained  by  the  Registrant.  The  Registrant  requires  fire  and  casualty
insurance on all  properties  securing real estate loans and also performs title
searches to ensure its lien position.

     The Registrant  actively solicits and originates home equity loans and home
equity  lines  of  credit  secured  by  the  equity  in the  borrower's  primary
residence. These loans generally have terms of 10 to 15 years, some of which are
fixed rates and some of which have rates that adjust  based upon the prime rate.
At December  31,  2001,  the  Registrant  had home equity loans in the amount of
$21.8 million,  or 6.37%, of its  residential  loan portfolio and approved $21.3
million in home equity lines of credit, of which $8.2 million was outstanding.

     Commercial  Real  Estate  Loans.  Commercial  real  estate  loans are loans
secured by commercial real estate (e.g.,  shopping centers,  medical  buildings,
retail offices) and multi-family  dwelling units (e.g.,  apartment projects with
more than four units), in the Registrant's  market area.  Commercial real estate
loans and  multi-family  residential  loans have been made in amounts up to $3.8
million,  with most of such loans ranging in size from $100,000 to $1.0 million.
Loans on commercial  properties are generally originated in amounts up to 75% of
the  appraised  value  of  the  property.   Commercial  real  estate  loans  and
multi-family  residential  loans are generally  made at rates which adjust above
the prime  interest rate  (generally 1% to 2%) or a specified  treasury index or
are balloon loans with fixed  interest rates which mature in three to five years
with  principal  amortization  for a period of up to 25 years.  At December  31,
2001, the Registrant's  commercial real estate loan portfolio consisted of $57.3
million of commercial real estate and $3.3 million of multi-family loans.

     Loans secured by commercial real estate are generally  larger and involve a
greater degree of risk than one-to-four  family  residential  mortgage loans. Of
primary  concern,  in commercial and  multi-family  real estate lending,  is the
borrower's creditworthiness and the feasibility and cash flow potential of the

                                        3

<PAGE>



property.  Loans secured by income  properties are generally  larger and involve
greater risks than residential  mortgage loans because payments on loans secured
by income  properties are often dependent on successful  operation or management
of the  properties.  As a result,  repayment  of such  loans may be subject to a
greater extent than residential  real estate loans to adverse  conditions in the
real estate market or the economy.

     Construction  Loans.  The  Registrant   originates  loans  to  finance  the
construction  of one-to-four  family  dwellings  and/or  commercial real estate.
Construction  loans to builders are generally made only if the Registrant  makes
the  permanent  mortgage  loan or if the builder has a contract for sale and the
purchaser has received a permanent  mortgage  commitment.  Interim  construction
loans to builders  generally  have terms of up to nine months and interest rates
which adjust above the prime interest rate (generally 1% to 2%).

     Construction  financing is generally  considered to involve a higher degree
of risk of loss than long- term  financing  on improved,  occupied  real estate.
Risk of loss on a  construction  loan is dependent  largely upon the accuracy of
the initial  estimate of the property's  value at completion of construction and
development and the estimated cost (including interest) of construction.  During
the  construction  phase,  a number of factors  could  result in delays and cost
overruns.  If the estimate of  construction  costs proves to be inaccurate,  the
Registrant  may be  required  to advance  funds  beyond  the  amount  originally
committed  to permit  completion  of the  development.  If the estimate of value
proves to be inaccurate,  the  Registrant may be confronted,  at or prior to the
maturity of the loan,  with a project  having a value which is  insufficient  to
assure full repayment.

     Consumer Loans.  Regulations permit federally chartered thrift institutions
to make  secured and  unsecured  consumer  loans up to 35% of the  institution's
assets.  The  Registrant  makes various types of secured and unsecured  consumer
loans including  education  loans,  lines of credit,  automobile  loans (new and
used) and loans secured by deposit accounts. Consumer loans generally have terms
of six months to five years,  some of which are at fixed rates and some of which
have rates that adjust periodically.

     Consumer loans may entail greater risk than residential loans, particularly
in the case of  consumer  loans that are  unsecured  or  secured by assets  that
depreciate rapidly. Repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not
be  sufficient  for  repayment  of  the  outstanding  loan,  and  the  remaining
deficiency may not be collectible.

     Commercial  Business Loans.  Commercial  business loans are underwritten on
the basis of the  borrower's  ability to service  such debt from  income and are
generally made to small and mid-sized  companies located within the Registrant's
primary lending area.  Generally,  the Registrant requires additional collateral
of equipment, chattel or other assets before making a commercial business loan.

     Loan  Commitments.  The Registrant  issues loan origination  commitments to
real estate developers and qualified  borrowers  primarily for the construction,
purchase and refinancing of residential  real estate and commercial real estate.
Such  commitments are made on specified terms and conditions,  including in most
cases, the payment of a  non-refundable  commitment fee based on a percentage of
the amount of committed funds.  Generally,  the commitment  requires  acceptance
within 15 days of the date of issuance. At December 31, 2001, the Registrant had
$18.2  million  of  commitments  to cover  originations  and  $16.5  million  in
undisbursed  funds on  outstanding  lines of credit.  Management  believes  that
virtually all of the Registrant's commitments will be funded.



                                        4

<PAGE>



Origination of Loans

     Commercial loan origination comes from a variety of sources,  including the
Registrant's  existing  customer  base,  referrals  from  real  estate  offices,
accountants,  financial  advisers,  attorneys,  builders and walk in business as
well  as  solicitations  by  the  Registrant's  business  development  officers.
Residential  mortgage loan customers are derived in a similar  manner.  Consumer
loans are directly  obtained through the Registrant's  network of branch offices
and advertising.

     All applications  are processed in accordance with established  policies of
the  Registrant,  including  the review of credit  references,  verification  of
information  provided  and,  where  real  estate is  involved,  the review of an
appraisal  completed  by an  independent  third party  appraiser  from a list of
approved appraisers that the Registrant maintains.

     Loan  approvals may be approved by loan  officers up to their  individually
assigned  lending limit,  which are  established  and modified  periodically  to
reflect the officer's  expertise  and  experience.  Certain  officers have joint
lending  authorities  that exceed  their  individual  authorities.  The Board of
Directors  approves  loans above the  individual  and joint  authorities  of the
officers. The Board reviews on an annual basis the loan approval authorities.

Non-Performing and Problem Assets

     When a loan is more than 30 days  delinquent,  the borrower is contacted by
mail or phone and payment is requested. If the delinquency continues, subsequent
efforts will be made to contact the delinquent  borrower.  In certain instances,
the  Registrant  may  modify  the loan or  grant a  limited  moratorium  on loan
payments to enable the borrower to reorganize his financial affairs. If the loan
continues in a delinquent  status for 90 days or more, the Registrant  generally
will initiate foreclosure proceedings.

     Loans are generally  placed on non-accrual  status when either principal or
interest is 90 days or more past due.  Interest accrued and unpaid at the time a
loan is placed on non-accrual  status is charged against  interest income by the
establishment  of  a  reserve  on  uncollected  interest.  Such  interest,  when
ultimately collected, is credited to income in the period received.

     Classified Assets. OTS regulations provide for a classification  system for
problem assets of insured  institutions  which covers all problem assets.  Under
this  classification   system,   problem  assets  of  insured  institutions  are
classified  as  "substandard,"  "doubtful,"  or "loss."  An asset is  considered
substandard if it is inadequately  protected by the current net worth and paying
capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard assets
include  those  characterized  by the  "distinct  possibility"  that the insured
institution  will sustain  "some loss" if the  deficiencies  are not  corrected.
Assets  classified  as  doubtful  have all of the  weaknesses  inherent in those
classified  substandard,  with the  added  characteristic  that  the  weaknesses
present  make  "collection  or  liquidation  in full," on the basis of currently
existing facts,  conditions,  and values,  "highly questionable and improbable."
Assets  classified  as loss are  those  considered  "uncollectible"  and of such
little value that their  continuance  as assets without the  establishment  of a
specific  loss  reserve  is not  warranted.  Assets may be  designated  "special
mention"  because  of  potential   weaknesses  that  do  not  currently  warrant
classification in one of the aforementioned categories.

     When an  insured  institution  classifies  problem  assets  as loss,  it is
required  either to establish a specific  allowance  for losses equal to 100% of
that  portion  of the asset so  classified  or to  charge  off such  amount.  An
institution's  determination  as to the  classification  of its  assets  and the
amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by the OTS.

     Management's evaluation of the classification of assets and the adequacy of
the reserve  for loan losses is reviewed by the Board on a regular  basis and by
the regulatory agencies as part of their examination process.

     The  following  table  sets  forth the  Registrant's  classified  assets in
accordance with its classification system.

     Provision  for Loan  Losses.  A  provision  for loan  losses is  charged to
operations  based on management's  evaluation of the losses that may be incurred
in the Registrant's loan portfolio. Such evaluation,  which includes a review of
all loans of which full  collectibility  of interest  and  principal  may not be
reasonably assured, considers the Registrant's past loan loss experience,  known
and inherent  risks in the  portfolio,  adverse  situations  that may affect the
borrower's ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying  collateral,  and
current economic conditions.

     Management  will continue to review the entire loan  portfolio to determine
the extent,  if any, to which further  additional  loss provisions may be deemed
necessary.  There can be no  assurance  that the  allowance  for losses  will be
adequate  to cover  losses  which may in fact be realized in the future and that
additional provisions for losses will not be required.

Investment Activities

     The Registrant is required under federal  regulations to maintain a minimum
amount of liquid assets which may be invested in specified short-term securities
and certain other investments.  The level of liquid assets varies depending upon
several  factors,  including:  (i) the yields on investment  alternatives,  (ii)
management's  judgment as to the  attractiveness of the yields then available in
relation to other  opportunities,  (iii) expectation of future yield levels, and
(iv)  management's  projections as to the short-term demand for funds to be used
in loan  origination  and other  activities.  Investment  securities,  including
mortgage-backed  securities,  are classified at the time of purchase, based upon
management's  intentions  and  abilities,  as  securities  held to  maturity  or
securities  available  for sale.  Debt  securities  acquired with the intent and
ability to hold to maturity are classified as held to maturity and are stated at
cost and adjusted for  amortization of premium and accretion of discount,  which
are  computed  using the level yield method and  recognized  as  adjustments  of
interest income.  All other debt securities are classified as available for sale
to serve principally as a source of liquidity.

     Current   regulatory  and  accounting   guidelines   regarding   investment
securities  (including  mortgage  backed  securities)  require the Registrant to
categorize  securities as "held to maturity," "available for sale" or "trading."
As of December  31,  2001,  Registrant  had  securities  classified  as "held to
maturity"  and  "available  for sale" in the amount of $469.1  million and $52.0
million,  respectively and had no securities classified as "trading." Securities
classified as "available for sale" are reported for financial reporting purposes
at the fair  market  value with net  changes in the market  value from period to
period included as a separate  component of stockholders'  equity, net of income
taxes. At December 31, 2001, the Registrant's  securities available for sale had
an amortized cost of $51.7 million and market value of $52.0 million (unrealized
gain of $230  thousand,  net of deferred  income  taxes).  The changes in market
value in the  Registrant's  available for sale  portfolio  reflect normal market
conditions and vary, either positively or negatively, based primarily on changes
in  general  levels of  market  interest  rates  relative  to the  yields of the
portfolio. Additionally, changes in the market value of securities available for
sale do not  affect  the  Corporation's  income  nor does it affect  the  Bank's
regulatory capital requirements or its loan-to-one borrower limit.

     At December 31, 2001, the Registrant's  investment portfolio policy allowed
investments in instruments  such as: (i) U.S.  Treasury  obligations,  (ii) U.S.
federal agency or federally sponsored agency obligations,  (iii) local municipal
obligations,  (iv) mortgage-backed  securities,  (v) banker's acceptances,  (vi)
certificates  of  deposit,  and (vii)  investment  grade  corporate  bonds,  and
commercial paper. The board of directors may authorize additional investments.

     As a source of liquidity and to supplement Registrant's lending activities,
the  Registrant  has  invested  in   residential   mortgage-backed   securities.
Mortgage-backed  securities can serve as collateral for borrowings and,  through
repayments,  as a source of liquidity.  Mortgage-backed  securities  represent a
participation  interest in a pool of  single-family  or other type of mortgages.
Principal  and  interest  payments  are passed  from the  mortgage  originators,
through  intermediaries  (generally  quasi-governmental  agencies) that pool and
repackage the participation  interests in the form of securities,  to investors,
like us. The quasi-governmental  agencies guarantee the payment of principal and
interest to  investors  and include the Federal Home Loan  Mortgage  Corporation
("FHLMC"),  Government  National  Mortgage  Association  ("GNMA"),  and  Federal
National Mortgage Association ("FNMA").

     Mortgage-backed  securities  typically  are issued  with  stated  principal
amounts.  The  securities  are backed by pools of mortgages that have loans with
interest rates that are within a set range and have

                                       10

<PAGE>



varying  maturities.  The underlying pool of mortgages can be composed of either
fixed rate or adjustable  rate mortgage  loans.  Mortgage-backed  securities are
generally  referred to as mortgage  participation  certificates  or pass-through
certificates.  The interest rate risk  characteristics of the underlying pool of
mortgages  (i.e.,  fixed rate or adjustable  rate) and the prepayment  risk, are
passed on to the certificate holder. The life of a mortgage-backed  pass-through
security is equal to the life of the underlying  mortgages.  Expected maturities
will differ from contractual  maturities due to scheduled repayments and because
borrowers  may have the  right to call or  prepay  obligations  with or  without
prepayment penalties. Mortgage-backed securities issued by FHLMC, GNMA, and FNMA
make up a majority of the pass- through certificates market.

     The  Registrant  also  invests in  mortgage-related  securities,  primarily
collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs"), issued or sponsored by GNMA, FNMA,
FHLMC,  as well as  private  issuers.  CMOs  are a type  of debt  security  that
aggregates  pools  of  mortgages  and  mortgage-backed  securities  and  creates
different  classes of CMO securities  with varying  maturities and  amortization
schedules as well as a residual  interest with each class having  different risk
characteristics.  The cash  flows from the  underlying  collateral  are  usually
divided into "tranches" or classes whereby  tranches have descending  priorities
with  respect to the  distribution  of principal  and interest  repayment of the
underlying  mortgages and mortgage backed  securities as opposed to pass through
mortgage  backed  securities  where cash flows are  distributed  pro rata to all
security  holders.  Unlike  mortgage  backed-securities  from which cash flow is
received and prepayment risk is shared pro rata by all securities holders,  cash
flows from the mortgages and mortgage backed securities underlying CMOs are paid
in  accordance  with a  predetermined  priority  to  investors  holding  various
tranches of such  securities or obligations.  A particular  tranche or class may
carry  prepayment  risk  which  may be  different  from  that of the  underlying
collateral  and other  tranches.  CMOs  attempt to  moderate  reinvestment  risk
associated  with   conventional   mortgage-backed   securities   resulting  from
unexpected  prepayment activity.  Management believes these securities represent
attractive alternatives relative to other investments due to the wide variety of
maturity, repayment and interest rate options available.

Sources of Funds

     General.  Deposits are the major external source of the Registrant's  funds
for lending and other investment  purposes.  Funds are derived from amortization
and  prepayment  of loans and,  to a lesser  extent,  maturities  of  investment
securities,  borrowings,  mortgage-backed  securities and operations.  Scheduled
loan principal repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit
inflows and  outflows  and loan  prepayments  are  significantly  influenced  by
general interest rates and market conditions.

     Deposits.  Deposits are attracted from within the Registrant's market areas
of Burlington and Camden Counties,  New Jersey,  through the offering of a broad
selection  of  deposit   instruments   including   regular  checking   accounts,
non-interest  checking  accounts,   money  market  accounts,   regular  passbook
accounts,  certificates of deposit and IRA accounts.  Deposit account terms vary
according  to the  minimum  balance  required,  the time  periods the funds must
remain on deposit and the interest  rate,  among other  factors.  The Registrant
regularly  evaluates  the  internal  cost of funds,  surveys  rates  offered  by
competing  institutions,  reviews the  Registrant's  cash flow  requirements for
lending and  liquidity and executes  rate changes when deemed  appropriate.  The
Registrant does not have any brokered  deposits and has no present  intention to
accept or solicit such deposits.

     Certificates  of  Deposit  in  Excess  of  $100,000.  The  following  table
indicates the amount of the Registrant's  certificates of deposit of $100,000 or
more by time remaining until maturity as of December 31, 2001.

Personnel

     As of December 31, 2001 the Registrant had 300 full-time  employees and 234
part-time  employees.   The  employees  are  not  represented  by  a  collective
bargaining  unit.  Management  believes its  relationship  with its employees is
good.

Regulation of the Corporation

     Set forth below is a brief  description of certain laws which relate to the
regulation of the  Corporation.  The description does not purport to be complete
and  is  qualified  in  its  entirety  by  reference  to  applicable   laws  and
regulations.

     General.  The  Corporation  is a unitary  savings and loan holding  company
subject to regulatory oversight by the OTS. As such, the Corporation is required
to  register  and file  reports  with the OTS and is subject to  regulation  and
examination by the OTS. In addition,  the OTS has enforcement authority over the
Corporation  and  its   non-savings   association   subsidiaries,   should  such
subsidiaries  be formed,  which also  permits  the OTS to  restrict  or prohibit
activities  that are determined to be a serious risk to the  subsidiary  savings
association.  This  regulation  and  oversight  is  intended  primarily  for the
protection of the depositors of the Bank and not for the benefit of stockholders
of the Corporation.

     As a unitary savings and loan holding company, the Company generally is not
subject   to  any   restrictions   on  its   business   activities.   While  the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the "GLB Act"), enacted in November 1999, terminated the
"unitary  thrift  holding  company"  exemption from activity  restrictions  on a
prospective basis, the Company enjoys  grandfathered status under this provision
of the GLB Act because it acquired  the Bank prior to May 4, 2001.  As a result,
the Company's  freedom from activity  restrictions as a unitary savings and loan
holding company was not affected by the GLB Act. However, if the Company were to
acquire control of an additional savings  institution,  its business  activities
would be subject to restriction under the Home Owners' Loan Act. Furthermore, if
the Company were in the future to sell control of the Bank to any other company,
such company would not succeed to the Company's  grandfathered  status under the
GLB  Act  and  would  be  subject  to  the  Home  Owner's  Loan  Act's  activity
restrictions.

     The continuation of the Company's  exemption from  restrictions on business
activities as a unitary  savings and loan holding company is also subject to the
Company's continued  compliance with the QTL Test. See "- Regulation of the Bank
- Qualified Thrift Lender ("QTL") Test."

Regulation of the Bank

     General. Set forth below is a brief description of certain laws that relate
to the regulation of the Bank. The  description  does not purport to be complete
and  is  qualified  in  its  entirety  by  reference  to  applicable   laws  and
regulations.  As a  federally  chartered,  Savings  Association  Insurance  Fund
("SAIF")  insured  savings  association,   the  Bank  is  subject  to  extensive
regulation by the OTS and the FDIC.  Lending  activities  and other  investments
must comply with various federal statutory and regulatory requirements. The Bank
is also  subject to certain  reserve  requirements  promulgated  by the  Federal
Reserve Board.

     The OTS, in  conjunction  with the FDIC,  regularly  examines  the Bank and
prepares  reports for the  consideration of the Bank's Board of Directors on any
deficiencies that are found in the Bank's operations.

                                       16

<PAGE>



The Bank's relationship with its depositors and borrowers is also regulated to a
great  extent by  federal  and state  law,  especially  in such  matters  as the
ownership of savings  accounts  and the form and content of the Bank's  mortgage
documents.

     The  Bank  must  file  reports  with the OTS and the  FDIC  concerning  its
activities  and  financial  condition,   in  addition  to  obtaining  regulatory
approvals  prior to entering into certain  transactions  such as mergers with or
acquisitions  of other savings  institutions.  This  regulation and  supervision
establishes a comprehensive  framework of activities in which an institution can
engage and is intended  primarily for the protection of the SAIF and depositors.
The  regulatory  structure  also  gives  the  regulatory  authorities  extensive
discretion in connection with their  supervisory and enforcement  activities and
examination  policies,  including policies with respect to the classification of
assets and the  establishment  of adequate  loan loss  reserves  for  regulatory
purposes.

     Insurance of Deposit  Accounts.  The deposit  accounts held by the Bank are
insured by the SAIF to a maximum of $100,000 for each insured member (as defined
by law and regulation). Insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon
a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in
an unsafe or unsound  condition  to  continue  operations  or has  violated  any
applicable law, regulation,  rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC or the
institution's primary regulator.

     The FDIC administers two separate deposit insurance funds.  Generally,  the
Bank Insurance Fund (the "BIF") insures the deposits of commercial banks and the
SAIF insures the deposits of savings  institutions.  The FDIC is  authorized  to
increase  deposit  insurance  premiums  if  it  determines  such  increases  are
appropriate  to maintain  the  reserves of either the SAIF or BIF or to fund the
administration  of the  FDIC.  In  addition,  the  FDIC  is  authorized  to levy
emergency  special  assessments  of BIF and SAIF  members.  The FDIC has set the
deposit  insurance  assessment rates for SAIF member  institutions for the first
six months of 2002 at 0% to 0.27% of insured  deposits on an  annualized  basis,
with the assessment rate for most savings institutions set at 0%.

     In  addition,  all  institutions  insured by the FDIC are  required  to pay
quarterly assessments, totaling approximately 0.182% of insured deposits for the
2002 calendar  year, to fund interest  payments on bonds issued by the Financing
Corporation, an agency of the Federal government established to recapitalize the
predecessor  to the SAIF.  These  assessments  will continue until the Financing
Corporation bonds mature in 2017.

     Regulatory Capital  Requirements.  OTS capital  regulations require savings
institutions to meet three capital standards: (1) tangible capital equal to 1.5%
of total adjusted assets,  (2) a leverage ratio (core capital) equal to at least
3% of total adjusted  assets for savings  institutions  that receive the highest
supervisory  rating for safety and soundness and 4% for all other  thrifts,  and
(3) a  risk-based  capital  requirement  equal  to 8.0% of  total  risk-weighted
assets.  At December 31, 2001,  the Bank was in compliance  with its  regulatory
capital requirements.

     Dividend  and  Other  Capital  Distribution  Limitations.  The OTS  imposes
various  restrictions or requirements on the ability of savings  institutions to
make capital distributions, including cash dividends.

     A savings  association  that is a subsidiary  of a savings and loan holding
company,  such as the Bank must file an  application or a notice with the OTS at
least 30 days before making a capital distribution.

                                       17

Savings  associations  are not required to file an application for permission to
make a  capital  distribution  and  need  only  file a notice  if the  following
conditions  are met:  (1) they are eligible for  expedited  treatment  under OTS
regulations,   (2)  they  would   remain   adequately   capitalized   after  the
distribution,  (3) the annual amount of capital distribution does not exceed net
income for that year to date added to retained net income for the two  preceding
years, and (4) the capital distribution would not violate any agreements between
the OTS and the savings association or any OTS regulations.  Any other situation
would require an application to the OTS.

     The OTS may  disapprove an  application  or notice if the proposed  capital
distribution   would:  (i)  make  the  savings   association   undercapitalized,
significantly  undercapitalized,  or  critically  undercapitalized;  (ii)  raise
safety or  soundness  concerns;  or (iii)  violate  a  statute,  regulation,  or
agreement  with  the OTS (or  with  the  FDIC),  or a  condition  imposed  in an
OTS-approved application or notice. Further, a federal savings association, like
the  Bank,  cannot  distribute   regulatory  capital  that  is  needed  for  its
liquidation account.

     Qualified Thrift Lender Test. Federal savings institutions must meet one of
two  Qualified  Thrift  Lender  ("QTL")  tests.  To  qualify as a QTL, a savings
institution must either (i) be deemed a "domestic building and loan association"
under the Internal  Revenue Code by maintaining at least 60% of its total assets
in specified types of assets,  including cash,  certain  government  securities,
loans  secured  by and  other  assets  related  to  residential  real  property,
educational loans and investments in premises of the institution or (ii) satisfy
the statutory QTL test set forth in the Home Owner's Loan Act by  maintaining at
least 65% of its "portfolio  assets" in  certain"Qualified  Thrift  Investments"
(defined  to include  residential  mortgages  and  related  equity  investments,
certain  mortgage-related  securities,  small business loans,  student loans and
credit card loans, and 50% of certain community development loans). For purposes
of the Home Owners' Loan Act, portfolio assets are defined as total assets minus
intangible assets,  property used by the institution in conducting its business,
and liquid  assets  equal to 20% of total  assets.  A savings  institution  must
maintain its status as a QTL on a monthly basis in at least nine out of every 12
months.  A  failure  to  qualify  as a QTL  results  in a number  of  sanctions,
including the imposition of certain operating  restrictions and a restriction on
obtaining  additional advances from its FHLB. At December 31, 2001, the Bank was
in compliance  with its QTL  requirement,  with 98.52% of its assets invested in
Qualified Thrift Investments.

     Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  System.  The Bank is a member of the FHLB of New
York,  which is one of 12 regional  FHLBs that  administers  the home  financing
credit  function  of  savings  associations.  Each FHLB  serves as a reserve  or
central bank for its members within its assigned region.  It is funded primarily
from  proceeds  derived from the sale of  consolidated  obligations  of the FHLB
System.  It makes loans to members (i.e.,  advances) in accordance with policies
and procedures established by the Board of Directors of the FHLB.

     As a member,  the Bank is required to purchase  and  maintain  stock in the
FHLB of New York in an  amount  equal to at  least  1% of its  aggregate  unpaid
residential  mortgage loans, home purchase  contracts or similar  obligations at
the beginning of each year.

     Federal  Reserve  Board  System.  The Federal  Reserve  Board  requires all
depository  institutions to maintain  non-interest bearing reserves at specified
levels against their transaction  accounts (primarily  checking,  NOW, and Super
NOW checking accounts) and non-personal time deposits.  The balances  maintained
to meet the reserve  requirements  imposed by the Federal  Reserve  Board may be
used to satisfy

                                       18

the  liquidity  requirements  that are imposed by the OTS. At December 31, 2001,
the Bank was in compliance with these Federal Reserve Board requirements.
