NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Table amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

(unaudited)

Note 1  Basis of
Presentation

BankFinancial Corporation, a Maryland corporation headquartered in Burr Ridge, Illinois (the Company), is the owner of all of
the issued and outstanding capital stock of BankFinancial, F.S.B. (the Bank). On March 15, 2008, Financial Assurance Services, Inc. (Financial Assurance), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank, completed the sale of its
title insurance agency business to a newly formed, third-party title insurance agency. The sale of the title insurance agency business does not affect the Banks other insurance businesses, such as the property, casualty and life insurance and
fixed annuity products that the Bank sells through Financial Assurance. The transaction had no material impact on the Companys total assets, stockholders equity or net income.

As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the words Company, we and our are intended to refer to the Company, the Bank, and the
Banks subsidiaries, with respect to information presented for the three-month period ended March 31, 2009.

The interim unaudited consolidated
financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2009, are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2009.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

To prepare
financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements
and the disclosures provided, and future results could differ. The allowance for loan losses, mortgage loan servicing rights, impairment of securities and the fair value of investment securities and financial instruments are particularly subject to
change.

Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior periods financial statements to conform them to the current periods
presentation.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2008, and all amendments thereto, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Note 2  Earnings per share

Amounts reported in earnings per share reflect earnings available to common stockholders for the period divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, exclusive of
unearned ESOP shares and unvested restricted stock shares. Stock options and restricted stock are regarded as potential common stock and are considered in the diluted earnings per share calculations to the extent that they would have a dilutive
effect if converted to common stock computed using the treasury stock method.

Mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations consisted of Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae and Ginnie
Mae issues at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008. Equity securities consisted of Freddie Mac preferred stock at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008. All of our investment securities reflected in the preceding table were
classified as available-for-sale at March 31, 2009.

Interest income on securities is recognized under the interest method, and includes amortization
of purchase premium and discount. Gains and losses on sales of securities are based on the amortized cost of the securities sold.

The Company evaluates
marketable investment securities with significant declines in fair value on a quarterly basis to determine whether they should be considered other-than-temporarily impaired under the current accounting guidance, which provides that if a marketable
security is in an unrealized loss position, whether due to general market conditions or industry or issuer-specific factors, the holder of the securities must assess whether the impairment is other-than-temporary.

The shares of Freddie Mac preferred stock that the Company holds in its investment portfolio experienced significant declines in fair value (as measured by quoted market
prices for these securities) during the year ended December 31, 2008 and the three months ended March 31, 2009 due to a variety of market conditions and issuer-specific factors, including the placing of Freddie Mac into a conservatorship,
Freddie Macs issuance of new shares of preferred stock that are senior to all previously issued preferred shares, and Freddie Macs suspension of dividends on all previously issued preferred shares. The Company evaluated its shares of
Freddie Mac preferred stocks at March 31, 2009 for impairment, and concluded that the unrealized losses that existed at that date did not constitute an other-than-temporary impairment under the current accounting guidance.

Note 4  Loans Receivable

Loans originated are identified as either held for sale or held for investment and are accounted for accordingly upon their origination. Loans that are classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of
aggregate cost or estimated fair market value, as determined by outstanding commitments from investors. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recorded as a valuation allowance and charged to earnings. Mortgage loans held for sale are generally sold
with servicing rights retained. The carrying value of mortgage loans sold is reduced by the fair value of the servicing right. Gains and losses on sales of mortgage loans are based on the difference between the selling price and the carrying value
of the related loan sold.

Premiums and discounts associated with loans purchased are amortized over the contractual term of the loan using the level-yield
method.

Interest income is reported on the interest method and includes amortization of net deferred loan fees and costs over the contractual loan term,
adjusted for prepayments. Interest income is discontinued at the time a loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well-secured and there are no asserted or pending legal barriers to its collection. Past due status is based on the contractual
terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual status or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual status is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method until
qualifying for return to accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Loans receivable are as follows:

|90 days delinquent, still accruing |  |               | 2,383  |                  |   | 2,673 

Nonaccrual loans and impaired loans are defined differently. Some loans may be included in both categories, and
some may only be included in one category. Nonaccrual loans include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually classified impaired loans.

The $2.4 million in loans reflected in the above table as 90 days delinquent, still accruing, represent four well-secured loans in the process of collection.
Generally, the Bank does not utilize this category of loan classification unless: (1) the loan is repaid in full shortly after the period end date; (2) the loan is well secured and there are no asserted or pending legal barriers to its
collection; or (3) the borrower has remitted all scheduled payments and is otherwise in substantial compliance with the terms of the loan, but the processing of payments actually received or the renewal of a loan has not occurred for
administrative reasons.

Note 4  Loans Receivable(continued)



The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses inherent in the loan
portfolio. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required
using past loan loss experience; the nature and volume of the portfolio; information about specific borrower situations; and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. The amount of the allowance is based on estimates and
the ultimate losses may vary from such estimates as more information becomes available, or as later events occur or circumstances change. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan
that, in managements judgment, should be charged-off. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise classified as substandard
or doubtful. The general component covers nonclassified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors.

A loan is impaired
when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Multi-family, nonresidential real estate, construction, land, and commercial loans and leases are individually evaluated for impairment. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is
allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loans existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Large groups of smaller
balance homogeneous loans, such as consumer and residential real estate loans, are collectively evaluated for impairment, and accordingly, they are not separately identified for impairment disclosures.

Note 6  Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 157 Fair Value Measurementsestablishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity
to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:



| |  |  | Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are
not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entitys own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing
an asset or liability.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A financial instruments level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is
significant to the fair value measurement.

The fair values of marketable equity securities available-for-sale are generally determined by quoted prices,
in active markets, for each specific security (Level 1 measurement inputs). If Level 1 measurement inputs are not available for a marketable equity security, the fair value is determined based on the quoted price of a similar security traded in an
active market (Level 2 measurement inputs). The fair values of debt securities available-for-sale are generally determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying
exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 measurement inputs).

The fair values of loans held for sale are generally determined by quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets (Level 2 measurement inputs).

Impaired loans are evaluated at the time the loan is identified as impaired, and are recorded at the lower of carrying value or fair value. Fair
value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans and is classified at a Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets, including equipment, inventory and/or accounts
receivable, and its fair value is generally determined based on real estate appraisals or other independent evaluations by qualified professionals. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and
adjusted accordingly, based on the same factors identified above.

The fair values of mortgage servicing rights are based on a valuation model that
calculates the present value of estimated net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income. The Company is able to compare the valuation model inputs and
results to widely available published industry data for reasonableness (Level 2 measurement inputs).

Impaired loans, which are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent
loans, had a carrying amount of $11.8 million, with a valuation allowance of $2.0 million at March 31, 2009, compared to a carrying amount of $10.1 million, with a valuation allowance of $2.7 million December 31, 2008, resulting in a
credit to the provision for specific loan losses related to SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loanof $661,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Mortgage servicing rights, which are carried at lower of cost or fair value, had a carrying amount of $1.7 million at March 31, 2009, comprised of $1.1 million on
fixed rate loans and $565,000 on adjustable rate loans, including a valuation allowance of $183,000 on mortgage servicing rights of the fixed rate loans. A pre-tax charge of $73,000 was included in net income as an additional reserve on our mortgage
servicing rights portfolio for the three month period ended March 31, 2009, compared to $194,000 recorded for the same period 2008. Mortgage servicing rights had a carrying amount of $1.8 million at December 31, 2008, comprised of $1.2

Note 8  Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS 141R), which establishes principles and
requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill
acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this standard is not applicable unless the Company
enters into a business combination.

On October 10, 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) 157-3, Determining the Fair Value
of a Financial Assets When the Market for that Asset is Not Active, which provides an example that illustrates key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that asset is not active. The FSP does not
change existing U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The FSP provides clarification on how to consider various inputs in determining fair value under current market conditions consistent with the principles of FSP 157. The FSP includes
only one example, as the FASB emphasized the need to apply reasonable judgment to each specific fact pattern. Several additional concepts addressed in the FSP include distressed sales, the use of third party pricing information, the use of internal
assumptions and the relevance of observable data, among others. This FSP was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements have not been issued. The impact of adoption did not have a material impact on the
Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement No. 161, Disclosures about
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (SFAS 161). SFAS 161 amends Statement 133 by requiring expanded disclosures about an entitys derivative instruments and hedging
activities, but does not change Statement 133s scope or accounting. This statement requires increased qualitative, quantitative, and credit-risk disclosures. SFAS 161 also amends Statement No. 107 to clarify that derivative instruments
are subject to Statement 107s concentration-of-credit-risk disclosures. SFAS 161 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after November 15, 2008. The impact of adoption did not have a material impact on the Companys
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 8  Adoption of New Accounting Standards(continued)



In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position EITF 03-6-1Determining Whether Instruments Granted in
Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities. (FSP EITF 03-6-1). This FASB Staff Position (FSP) addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting and,
therefore, need to be included in the earnings allocation in computing earnings per share (EPS) under the two-class method of FASB Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share. FSP EITF 03-6-1 provides that unvested share-based payment awards
that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of EPS pursuant to the two-class method. This FSP was effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. All prior-period EPS data presented were to be adjusted retrospectively (including interim financial statements, summaries of
earnings, and selected financial data) to conform with the provisions of this FSP. The Companys unvested restricted stock awards do not contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends, they are not included under the scope of this pronouncement,
and therefore, the impact of adoption was not material.

Note 9  Newly Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards

In April 2009 the FASB issued FSP 115-2 & 124-2 Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than Temporary Impairments. The FSP eliminates the requirement for the
issuer to evaluate whether it has the intent and ability to hold an impaired investment until maturity. Conversely, the new FSP requires the issuer to recognize an OTTI in the event that the issuer intends to sell the impaired security or in the
event that it is more likely than not that the issuer will sell the security prior to recovery. In the event that the sale of the security in question prior to its maturity is not probable but the entity does not expect to recover its amortized cost
basis in that security, then the entity will be required to recognize an OTTI. In the event that the recovery of the securitys cost basis prior to maturity is not probable and an OTTI is recognized, the FSP provides that any component of the
OTTI relating to a decline in the creditworthiness of the debtor should be reflected in earnings, with the remainder being recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. Conversely, in the event that the issuer determines that sale of the security in
question prior to recovery is probable, then the entire OTTI will be recognized in earnings. The FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material
impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2009 the FASB issued FSP 157-4 Determining
Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly. The FSP provides additional guidance for determining fair value based on observable
transactions. The FSP provides that if evidence suggests that an observable transaction was not executed orderly that little, if any, weight should be assigned to this indication of an Asset or Liabilitys fair value. Conversely, if evidence
suggests that the observable transaction was executed orderly that the transaction price of the observable transaction may be appropriate to use in determining the fair value of the Asset/Liability in question, with appropriate weighting given to
this indication based on facts and circumstances. Finally, if there is no way for the entity to determine whether the observable transaction was executed orderly, relatively less weight should be ascribed to this indicator of fair value. The FSP is
effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2009 the FASB issued FSP 107-1 & APB 28-1 Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The FSP provides that
publicly traded companies shall provide information concerning the fair value of its financial instruments whenever it issues summarized financial information for interim reporting periods. In periods after initial adoption this FSP requires
comparative disclosures only for periods ending after initial adoption. The FSP is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009.

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

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

Forward Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including this Item 2, contains, and other periodic and special reports and press releases of BankFinancial
Corporation may contain, forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that involve significant risks and uncertainties. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered
by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for the purpose of invoking these safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are
based on certain assumptions or describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, and are generally identifiable by use of the words believe, expect, intend, anticipate, estimate,
project, plan, or similar expressions. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of plans or strategies is inherently uncertain, and actual results may differ from those predicted. Factors that could have a material
adverse effect on operations and could affect managements outlook or our future prospects include, but are not limited to: higher than expected overhead, infrastructure and compliance costs, changes in market interest rates, changes in the
yield curve, balance sheet shrinkage or less than anticipated balance sheet growth, lack of demand for loan products, illiquidity and changes in financial markets, including the market for mortgage backed securities and other debt obligations,
declining demand for real estate and real estate valuations, increasing unemployment levels, deposit flows, pricing, underwriting and other forms of competition, adverse federal or state legislative or regulatory developments, monetary and fiscal
policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and Federal Reserve Board, adverse economic conditions that could result in increased delinquencies in our loan portfolio or a decline in the value of our investment securities
and the collateral for our loans, the quality or composition of our loan or investment portfolios, demand for financial services and multi-family, commercial and residential real estate loans in our market areas, the possible short-term dilutive
effect of potential acquisitions or de novo branches, if any, changes in accounting principles, policies and guidelines, increased costs of federal deposit insurance, and future adverse developments concerning the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago.
These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement in the future, or to
reflect circumstances and events that occur after the date on which the forward-looking statement was made.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and could potentially
result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We believe that the critical accounting policies upon which our financial condition and results of operation depend, and which involve the most complex subjective
decisions or assessments, are included in the discussion entitled Critical Accounting Policies in Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, in the Companys
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, and all amendments thereto, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There are no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in the Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

Overview

Business conditions continued to exhibit significantly divergent characteristics in the first quarter of 2009. New loan and lease opportunities are increasingly available at quite attractive pricing, but uncertainties regarding forward
corporate earnings and, in particular, concerns about investment real estate valuations, caused us to be even more conservative than our underwriting standards would otherwise dictate. Similarly, the competitive environment for deposits is more
favorable than at any time in the recent past, but the unpredictability of future net loan growth and the very low returns on investment securities limited our interest in more aggressive deposit growth. Local economic conditions remain fragile,
with rising unemployment affecting the retail sales and service sectors to a greater degree than in the previous quarter.

Multi-family loan balances increased modestly due to favorable competitive conditions and a broader
geographic market territory. Commercial real estate loan balances were stable as fewer real estate investors are willing to enter or exit the market. Commercial leasing activity increased materially, but net balance growth remained limited because
of the short amortization periods generally applicable to the existing commercial lease portfolio. Commercial loan balances declined slightly due to lower working capital usage by some borrowers; this trend could accelerate if the State of Illinois
improves the frequency of remittances to certain health-care borrowers.

Residential loan balances increased due to a larger quantity of
loans held for sale in the secondary market and increased home equity line of credit usage resulting primarily from seasonal factors. Construction loans balances declined due to project sales, as we continued to pursue prudent inventory liquidation
avenues with borrowers where necessary.

Deposits increased during the quarter, principally due to increased marketing efforts and a
considerably more favorable competitive environment, especially for retail certificates of deposit. Our focus on retaining core deposit relationships within current FDIC insurance limits resulted in the stabilization of such deposit balances within
product lines that are not indexed to current market rates. Given these conditions, we reduced wholesale deposit and other borrowing balances during the quarter and we expect to continue doing so as conditions further permit.

Overall trends in our owner-occupied residential and multi-family loan portfolios remained stable. A modest negative trend emerged in investor-owned
single-family buildings, but in at least two of the three situations encountered, the borrowers failed to remit rental income they received from occupied properties due to unrelated cash flow issues. The current and anticipated supply of
single-family residences on the market will likely result in longer holding periods for some of these properties following the conclusion of formal collection action, but we do not expect any material negative financial impact from these trends at
present.

The significantly extended absorption periods for new single-family construction and individual building sites resulted in a
total of $8.8 million in loans being placed on non-accrual status during the quarter due to the exhaustion of the borrowers ability to continue debt service on a cash basis. Of the total $9.4 million in non-accrual loans within this segment,
approximately $5.2 million is secured by three completed single-family homes in the northern suburbs of Chicago, and the remaining balance is secured by several individual building sites for single-family homes, one small single-family attached
development parcel and two small commercial parcels located in similar markets. Given our extensive real estate development management experience, we are prepared to retain certain improved development sites for future disposition if the underlying
facts and circumstances make it materially financially advantageous for us to do so.

We began to see some signs of stress in the
commercial real estate portfolio, both with respect to investment and owner-occupied real estate. Some retail tenants are requesting and receiving rental reductions and office space absorption remains weak due to the contraction of economic activity
generally. During the quarter, we placed $3.8 million of commercial real estate loans on non-accrual status, including a $2.7 million loan secured by a northwest suburban Chicago industrial / office building for which the borrower had exhausted
family financial resources to pay debt service and leasing agency services. The remaining increase in non-accruing commercial real estate loans is due to two situations where the borrowers business cash flow difficulties resulted in the
borrowers failure to remit existing rental income or were simply insufficient to continue debt service payments as scheduled. In general, we pursue both informal and formal collection actions designed to maximize occupancy or locate an
alternative user or investor for the collateral or the business itself on an expedited basis wherever possible.

It should also be noted
that the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, in which a substantial majority of our real estate collateral is located, recently issued an order suspending the entry of judgments and orders of sale in any mortgage foreclosure suit filed in 2009
and default judgments in previously filed suits until at least September 1, 2009, subject to certain limited exceptions. We are unable to predict the impact of this action on borrower behavior and its effect on market inventory and valuation
levels at this time, but we anticipate that, at the very least, the inability to promptly pursue all available collection remedies will delay the full realization of real estate collateral proceeds and thus the reduction of non-accrual credit
exposures.

Overall trends in our commercial lease and commercial loan portfolios remained stable; however, we
anticipate that economic conditions will place increasing stress on smaller businesses in general and any business relating to domestic automobile manufacturing or construction services. Our largest exposure to the automotive sector is a $1.2
million commercial lease exposure to Daimler-Chrysler LLC, originated in 2006-2007, which is secured by manufacturing equipment with a remaining weighted-average term to maturity of 30.7 months. The material uncertainties regarding both the company
and any related U.S. Government action make it at least reasonably foreseeable that some or all of this exposure may become uncollectable in the future depending on the timing of any interruption in payments and the net realizable value of the
collateral.

Our net interest margin and net interest spread declined modestly, principally due to the effects of the increase in loans on
nonaccrual status offsetting growth in loan interest income during the quarter. Given the volatility in market interest rates, prospective loan and deposit balances and other factors, we believe that it is not presently possible to reliably make
accurate statements concerning net interest margin and net interest spread trends for the immediate future.

Our non-interest income
decreased during the quarter due in part to reduced deposit-related fee income related to reductions in retail spending. Other factors affecting non-interest income included our decision to move our Bank-Owned Life Insurance investment into a
low-yielding money-market sub-account at the end of 2008 as a means to protect its underlying value, a required valuation allowance that we recorded on our mortgage loan servicing rights based on market conditions, and higher management or
disposition costs for real estate owned.

Our non-interest expenses remained well-contained, with increases in compensation related to
seasonal payroll tax factors and certain benefit costs related to terminated employees. Continued discipline on operating expenses, including the completion of all remaining functional reviews, remains a key focus for the balance of 2009.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008

Total assets increased $3.2 million, or 0.21%, to $1.558 billion at March 31, 2009, from $1.555 billion at December 31, 2008, primarily due to a
$16.0 million, or 1.3%, increase in net loans receivable to $1.284 billion at March 31, 2009 from $1.268 billion at December 31, 2008. The increase in net loans receivable reflected net increases of $15.2 million in multi-family mortgage
loans, $3.0 million in one-to four-family residential mortgage loans and a $3.2 million in commercial leases. Construction and land loans decreased $3.5 million, and commercial loans decreased by $1.4 million.

Net securities available-for-sale decreased by $5.5 million, or 4.4%, to $119.4 million at March 31, 2009, from $124.9 million at December 31,
2008, primarily due to principal reductions of $6.9 million.

We owned $15.6 million of common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of
Chicago (FHLBC) at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008. On October 10, 2007, the FHLBC entered into a consensual cease and desist order with the Federal Housing Finance Board, now known as the Federal Housing Finance
Agency (the FHFA). Under the terms of the order, capital stock repurchases and redemptions, including redemptions upon membership withdrawal or other termination, are prohibited unless the FHLBC receives the prior approval of the
Director of the Office of Supervision of the FHFA (the Director). The order also provides that dividend declarations are subject to the prior written approval of the Director and required the FHLBC to submit a Capital Structure Plan to
the FHFA. The FHLBC has not paid dividends on its common stock since the third quarter of 2007, and has announced that it does not anticipate paying any dividends in 2009. The FHLBC has submitted but has not received approval of a Capital Structure
Plan. In July of 2008, the FHFA amended the order to permit the FHLBC to repurchase or redeem newly-issued capital stock to support new advances, subject to certain conditions set forth in the order. Our FHLBC common stock is not affected by this
amendment because it is not newly-issued stock.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $6.3 million, or 21.5%, to $23.0 million at
March 31, 2009, from $29.3 million at December 31, 2008.

Deposits increased $84.0 million, or 7.8%, to $1.154 billion at
March 31, 2009, from $1.070 billion at December 31, 2008, primarily due to increased money market accounts and certificate of deposit balances. Money market accounts increased $40.7 million, or 19.8% to $246.4 million at March 31,
2009, and certificates of deposit increased $53.7 million, or 14.3%, to $428.2 million at March 31, 2009, from $374.5 million at December 31, 2008. Total core deposits (savings, money market, noninterest-bearing demand and interest-bearing
NOW accounts) decreased as a percentage of total deposits, representing 62.9% of total deposits at March 31, 2009, compared to 65.0% of total deposits at December 31, 2008. Borrowings decreased $76.4 million, or 38.1%, to $124.0 million at
March 31, 2009, from $200.4 million at December 31, 2008, due to our reductions of outstanding FHLBC advances.

Total stockholders equity was $265.6 million at March 31, 2009, compared to $266.8 million at
December 31, 2008. The decrease in total stockholders equity was primarily due to the combined impact of our repurchase of 207,800 shares of our common stock at a total cost of $1.8 million and our declaration and payment of cash
dividends totaling $1.5 million. These items were partially offset by net income of $172,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an $814,000 increase in accumulated other comprehensive income during that period, and a $940,000 increase
in additional paid in capital resulting from the vesting of stock-based compensation and ESOP shares earned. The unallocated shares of common stock that our ESOP owns were reflected as a $15.9 million reduction to stockholders equity at
March 31, 2009, compared to a $16.1 million reduction to stockholders equity at December 31, 2008.

Comparison of Operating Results for
the Three Months Ended March 31, 2009 and 2008

Net Income. We had net income of $172,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2009, compared to net income of $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. Our earnings per share of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2009 were $0.01 per basic and fully diluted share,
respectively, compared to earnings of $0.16 per basic and fully diluted share for the three-month period ending March 31, 2008.

Net Interest Income.Net interest income decreased by $103,000, or 0.8%, to $13.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $13.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The decrease
reflected a $1.8 million decrease in interest income, which was substantially offset by a $1.7 million decrease in interest expense. Our net interest rate spread increased by seven basis points to 3.36% for the three months ended March 31,
2009, from 3.29% for the same period in 2008. Our net interest margin decreased by 19 basis points to 3.74% for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from 3.93% for the same period in 2008.

Interest income decreased $1.8 million, or 8.9%, to $18.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $20.7 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in interest income was primarily attributable to the impact of lower short term interest rates on the average yield on interest-earning assets, the impact of which was mitigated by an increase in average
interest earning assets. The average yield on interest-earning assets declined 77 basis points to 5.37% for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to 6.14% for the same period in 2008. Total average interest-earning assets increased
$68.5 million, or 5.0%, to $1.427 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $1.358 billion for the same period in 2008. The increase in average interest earning assets was due in substantial part to a $28.0 million, or 2.2%,
increase in average loans receivable, and a net increase of $39.7 million, or 47.6%, in the average balance of securities available-for-sale.

Interest income from loans, the most significant portion of interest income, decreased $2.0 million, or 10.3%, to $17.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $19.6 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease in
interest income from loans resulted primarily from a 72 basis point decrease in the average yield on loans to 5.54% for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from 6.26% for the same period in 2008. The decrease in the average yield on loans
was partially offset by a $28.0 million, or 2.2%, increase in average loans receivable to $1.285 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $1.257 billion for the same period in 2008. The increase in average loans receivable
reflected increases in the average balances of multi-family mortgage loans, nonresidential real estate loans and commercial leases of $13.2 million, $14.3 million, and $34.5 million, respectively.

Interest income from securities available-for-sale increased by $197,000, or 17.2%, to $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from
$1.1 million for the same period in 2008. The increase in interest income from securities available-for-sale was primarily due to an increase of $39.8 million, or 47.6%, in the average outstanding balance of securities available-for-sale to $123.3
million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $83.5 million for the same period in 2008. The increase in the outstanding balance of securities available-for-sale was partially offset by a 110 basis point decrease in the average yield
on securities to 4.42% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from 5.52% for the same period in 2008. The FHLBC did not pay dividends on its common stock in the first quarter of 2009 or 2008.

Interest expense decreased $1.8 million, or 23.2%, to $5.7 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2009, from $7.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in interest expense was due in part to a decrease in the weighted average interest rates that we paid on deposit accounts and on FHLBC advances and
other borrowings. The cost of our average interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 84 basis points to 2.01% for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from 2.85% for the same period in 2008. The decrease in the interest rates that we paid on
deposit accounts, FHLBC advances and other borrowings was partially offset by a $102.1 million, or 9.7%, increase in our average interest-bearing liabilities to $1.155 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $1.053 billion for
the same period in 2008.

Interest expense on deposits decreased $1.2 million, or 18.7%, to $5.1 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2009, from $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in interest expense on deposits reflected a 63 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits to 2.06% for the three
months ended March 31, 2009, from 2.69% for same period in 2008. The decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was partially offset by a $64.8 million, or 6.9%, increase in average interest-bearing deposits to $1.008
billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $943.5 million for the same period in 2008.

Interest expense on money market
accounts decreased $477,000, or 27.0%, to $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in interest expense on money market accounts reflected a 62 basis
point decrease in the interest rate paid on these deposits to 2.32%, from 2.94% for the same period in 2008, and a $16.3 million, or 6.7%, decrease in the average balance of money market accounts to $225.8 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2009, from $242.1 million for the same period in 2008.

Interest expense on interest-bearing NOW account deposits decreased
$770,000, or 53.7%, to $663,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in interest expense on interest-bearing NOW accounts reflected a 93 basis point decrease
in the interest rates paid on interest-bearing NOW account deposits to 0.98% for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from 1.91% for the same period in 2008, and a decrease of $25.6 million, or 8.5%, in the average balance of interest-bearing
NOW account deposits to $275.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $301.2 million for the same period in 2008.

Interest expense on certificates of deposit increased $137,000, or 4.7%, to $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase in interest expense on
certificates of deposit was primarily due to an increase of $108.8 million, or 36.0%, in the average balance of certificates of deposit to $410.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $302.1 million for the same period in
2008. This increase in the average balance of certificates of deposit was partially offset by an 87 basis point decrease in the interest rates paid on certificates of deposit to 3.02% for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from 3.89% for
the same period in 2008.

Interest expense on borrowings decreased $556,000, or 47.9%, to $605,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2009, from $1.2 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease was primarily due to a 258 basis point decrease in interest rates paid on borrowings to 1.67% for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from 4.25% for the same
period in 2008. The decrease in interest rates on borrowings was partially offset by $37.3 million, or 34.0%, increase of our average borrowings to $147.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $109.8 million for the same
period in 2008. The decrease in the interest rate on borrowings was primarily attributable to declines in overnight market interest rates, our decision in December of 2008 to retire a $25.0 million FHLBC term advance and replace it with a new FHLBC
advance with an adjustable interest rate, and other balance sheet restructuring activities.

##### Table of Contents

Average Balance Sheets

The following table sets forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the periods indicated. No tax-equivalent yield adjustments were made, as the effect of these
adjustments would not be material. Average balances are daily average balances. Nonaccrual loans have been included in the computation of average balances, but have been reflected in the table as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields set forth
below include, where applicable, the effect of deferred fees and expenses, discounts and premiums, and purchase accounting adjustments that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense.

Provision for Loan Losses. We establish provisions for loan losses, which are
charged to operations in order to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level we consider necessary to absorb probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. In determining the level of the allowance for loan losses, we consider past
and current loss experience, evaluations of real estate collateral, current economic conditions, volume and type of lending, adverse situations that may affect a borrowers ability to repay a loan and the levels of nonperforming and other
classified loans. The amount of the allowance is based on estimates and the ultimate losses may vary from such estimates as more information becomes available or later events change. We assess the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis and
make provisions for loan losses in order to maintain the allowance.

Based on our evaluation of the above factors, we recorded a provision
for loan losses of $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to a credit to our allowance for loan losses of $51,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The provision for loan losses reflects an increase of
the general portion of the allowance of $473,000 based on the deterioration in national and local economic risk factors as measured by our SFAS No. 5 loan loss reserve model. The provision for loan losses also reflects a $661,000 decrease in
the portion of the allowance for loan losses that we allocate to impaired loans pursuant to SFAS No. 114, and $1.5 million in charge-offs. We added $242,000 in specific reserves related to a total of $5.2 million in loans secured by three
completed single-family homes located in the northern suburbs of Chicago. The addition of these reserves was offset by a reduction of $883,000 in reserves relating to loans to a deceased construction borrower which were resolved during the quarter.
Of the $1.5 million in charge-offs, $1.2 million related to the resolution of loans to the deceased construction borrower, with the remainder relating to various loans that were resolved during the quarter.

Nonperforming assets are as follows:

Nonperforming loans increased $9.1 million, or 66.5%, to $22.7 million at March 31, 2009,
from $13.7 million at December 31, 2008. The most significant portion of the increase in nonperforming loans, approximately $6.3 million, related to construction loans to two unaffiliated borrowers. The collateral for these loans generally
consists of completed single-family residences, but one loan is secured by an improved building site that is under contract to be sold in the second quarter of 2009. The remaining increase in nonperforming loans primarily related to a $2.7 million
exposure to a single borrower that is secured by a commercial office/industrial facility. The ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans was 1.75% at March 31, 2009, compared to 1.07% at December 31, 2008. Collection and resolution
efforts continue to be a priority, and future decisions may include the non-renewal of certain loans and potential cessation of borrower relationships where the progress toward resolution is unsatisfactory.

Our allowance for loan losses totaled $14.6 million, or 1.12% of total loans, at March 31, 2009, compared to $14.7 million, or 1.15% of total loans,
at December 31, 2008. We used the same general methodology in evaluating the allowance for loan losses at both dates. Our allowance for loan losses represented 64.0% of nonperforming loans at March 31, 2009, and 108.0% of nonperforming
loans at December 31, 2008. To the best of our knowledge, we have recorded all losses that are both probable and reasonable to estimate for each reporting period.

Noninterest Income. Our noninterest income decreased $3.3 million, or 70.5%, to
$1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $4.7 million for the same period in 2008. Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2008 included $2.6 million in pre-tax gains relating to the redeemed and unredeemed shares of
Visa, Inc. Class B common stock that were allocated to us in the initial public offering that Visa, Inc. conducted in March of 2008. There were no such gains in the first quarter of 2009. Deposit service charges and fees decreased $31,000, or 3.8%,
to $794,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $825,000 for the same period in 2008. Other fee income decreased $47,000, or 9.9%, to $428,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to $475,000 for the same period
in 2008. Income from insurance commissions and annuities decreased by $69,000, or 28.1%, to $177,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $246,000 for the same period in 2008, due to the impact of market and economic conditions on
sales. Gains on sales of loans increased by $186,000 to $256,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $70,000 for the same period in 2008, due to an increase in the volume of loan sales. Mortgage servicing rights amortization expense
increased $32,000, or 27.4%, to $149,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $117,000 for the same period in 2008. We also recorded an additional reserve of $73,000 in the first quarter 2009 on our mortgage servicing rights
portfolio due to accelerating prepayment speeds during the current quarter compared to a $194,000 reserve established in the same period in 2008. Net expense from real estate owned was $253,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009,
compared to $11,000 for the same period in 2008. Net expense from real estate owned for the current quarter included $212,000 in write-downs or losses on real estate owned. Bank-owned life insurance produced a loss of $59,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2009, compared to income of $217,000 for the same period in 2008, due to our decision to temporarily move investable policy funds into a low-yielding money-market sub-account at the end of 2008 as a means of protecting the
underlying value of the policy. Other income decreased $251,000, or 72.1%, to $97,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $348,000 for the same period in 2008, primarily due to the decrease in title insurance agency services income
that resulted from the sale of that business on March 15, 2008.

Noninterest Expense. Our noninterest expense was $12.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2009, compared to $13.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, a decrease of $439,000. Compensation and benefits expense decreased to $7.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $8.2
million for the same period in 2008. Expense relating to equity-based compensation and benefits decreased to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $1.2 million during the first quarter of 2008. Excluding equity-based
compensation and benefits, our compensation and benefits expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009 decreased by $167,000, or 2.4%, primarily due to the decrease in full-time equivalent employees that resulted from the implementation of
functional staffing reviews and the sale of our title insurance agency business. Advertising and public relations expense increased $202,000 to $366,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to $164,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2008, primarily due to increased deposit marketing efforts. Information technology costs increased $104,000, or 11.5%, to $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $904,000 for the same period in 2008,
primarily due to increased system maintenance costs and software upgrades. Other general and administrative expenses decreased $89,000, or 8.7%, to $930,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from $1.0 million for same period in 2008.

As an FDIC-insured institution, the Bank is required to pay deposit insurance premiums to the FDIC. Because the FDICs deposit
insurance fund fell below prescribed levels in 2008, the FDIC has announced increased premiums for all insured depository institutions, including the Bank, in order to begin recapitalizing the fund. Insurance assessments range from 0.12% to 0.50% of
total deposits for the first calendar quarter 2009 assessment. Effective April 1, 2009, insurance assessments will range from 0.07% to 0.78%, depending on an institutions risk classification and other factors.

In addition, under a proposed rule, the FDIC indicated its plans to impose a 20 basis point emergency assessment on insured depository institutions to be
paid on September 30, 2009, based on deposits at June 30, 2009. FDIC representatives subsequently indicated the amount of this special assessment could decrease if certain events transpire. The proposed rule would also authorize the FDIC
to impose an additional emergency assessment of up to 10 basis points after June 30, 2009, if necessary to maintain public confidence in federal deposit insurance.

These changes would result in increased deposit insurance expense for the Bank in 2009. These increases will be reflected in other expenses in the Banks income statement in the period of enactment.

Income Tax Expense. We recorded income tax expense of $254,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2009, compared to $1.6 million in income tax expense for the same period in 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity. The overall objective of our liquidity management is to ensure the availability of sufficient cash funds to meet all financial
commitments and to take advantage of lending and investment opportunities. We manage liquidity in order to meet deposit withdrawals on demand or at contractual maturity, to repay borrowings as they mature, and to fund new loans and investments as
opportunities arise.

Our primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and securities, and, to a lesser
extent, wholesale borrowings, the proceeds from maturing securities and short-term investments, and the proceeds from the sales of loans and securities. The scheduled amortization of loans and securities, as well as proceeds from borrowings, are
predictable sources of funds. Other funding sources, however, such as deposit inflows, mortgage prepayments and mortgage loan sales are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Bank is a member of the
FHLBC, which provides an additional source of short-term and long-term funding. Outstanding borrowings from the FHLBC were $114.0 million at March 31, 2009, at a weighted average interest rate of 2.05%. A total of $75.5 million of these
borrowings will mature in less than one year. Outstanding FHLBC borrowings were $188.9 million at December 31, 2008.

The liquidity
needs of the Company on an unconsolidated basis consist primarily of operating expenses, dividends to stockholders and stock repurchases. The primary source of liquidity for the Company currently is $29.2 million in cash and cash equivalents as of
March 31, 2009 and cash dividends from our subsidiary, the Bank.

As of March 31, 2009, we were not aware of any known trends,
events or uncertainties that have or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our liquidity. As of March 31, 2009, we had no other material commitments for capital expenditures.

Capital Resources. Stockholders equity totaled $265.6 million at March 31, 2009, compared to $266.8 million at December 31,
2008, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 0.43%. This decrease was primarily due to the repurchase and retirement of 207,800 shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of $1.8 million, combined with the declaration and payment of $1.5 million in cash
dividends, partially offset by net income of $172,000 during the first three months of 2009.

As of March 31, 2009, the Company had repurchased 3,812,723 shares of its common stock out of the
5,047,423 shares that have been authorized for repurchase by the Companys Board of Directors. As previously disclosed, the authorization permits shares to be repurchased in open market or negotiated transactions, and pursuant to any trading
plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The authorization will be utilized at managements discretion, subject to the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities and Exchange
Commission and other applicable legal requirements, and to price and other internal limitations established by the Board of Directors. The authorization may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time prior to May 15, 2009 for any reason,
including market conditions, the cost of repurchasing shares, the availability of alternative investment opportunities, liquidity, and other factors deemed relevant. These factors will also affect the timing and amount of share repurchases. For

As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Office of Thrift Supervision
(OTS) categorized the Bank as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since those notifications that management believes have changed the institutions
category.



|ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

Qualitative Analysis. We believe that our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk results from timing differences in the maturity or repricing of our assets, liabilities and off balance
sheet contracts (i.e., forward loan commitments), the effect of loan prepayments and deposit withdrawals, the difference in the behavior of lending and funding rates arising from the use of different indices and yield curve risk
arising from changing rate relationships across the spectrum of maturities for constant or variable credit risk investments. In addition to directly affecting net interest income, changes in market interest rates can also affect the amount of new
loan originations, the ability of borrowers to repay variable rate loans, the volume of loan prepayments and refinancings, the carrying value of investment securities classified as available-for-sale and the flow and mix of deposits.

The general objective of our interest rate risk management is to determine the appropriate level of risk given our business strategy and then manage that
risk in a manner that is consistent with our policy to reduce, to the extent possible, the exposure of our net interest income to changes in market interest rates. Our Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO), which consists of
certain members of senior management, evaluates the interest rate risk inherent in certain assets and liabilities, our operating environment and capital and liquidity requirements, and modifies our lending, investing and deposit gathering strategies
accordingly. The Board of Directors Asset/Liability Management Committee then reviews the ALCOs activities and strategies, the effect of those

strategies on our net interest margin, and the effect that changes in market interest rates would have on the economic value of our loan and securities
portfolios as well as the intrinsic value of our deposits and borrowings, and reports to the full Board of Directors.

We actively evaluate
interest rate risk in connection with our lending, investing and deposit activities. In an effort to better manage interest-rate risk, we have de-emphasized the origination of residential mortgage loans for our loan portfolio, and have increased our
emphasis on the origination of nonresidential real estate loans, multifamily mortgage loans, commercial loans and commercial leases. In addition, depending on market interest rates and our capital and liquidity position, we generally sell all or a
portion of our longer-term, fixed-rate residential loans, usually on a servicing-retained basis. Further, we primarily invest in shorter-duration securities, which generally have lower yields compared to longer-term investments. Shortening the
average maturity of our interest-earning assets by increasing our investments in shorter-term loans and securities, as well as loans with variable rates of interest, helps to better match the maturities and interest rates of our assets and
liabilities, thereby reducing the exposure of our net interest income to changes in market interest rates. Finally, we have classified all of our investment portfolio as available-for-sale so as to provide flexibility in liquidity management.

We utilize a combination of analyses to monitor the Banks exposure to changes in interest rates. The economic value of equity
analysis is a model that estimates the change in net portfolio value (NPV) over a range of interest rate scenarios. NPV is the discounted present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts. In
calculating changes in NPV, we assume estimated loan prepayment rates, reinvestment rates and deposit decay rates that seem most likely based on historical experience during prior interest rate changes.

Our net interest income analysis utilizes the data derived from the dynamic GAP analysis, described below, and applies several additional elements,
including actual interest rate indices and margins, contractual limitations such as interest rate floors and caps and the US Treasury yield curve as of the balance sheet date. In addition, we apply consistent parallel yield curve shifts (in both
directions) to determine possible changes in net interest income if the theoretical yield curve shifts occurred instantaneously. Net interest income analysis also adjusts the dynamic GAP repricing analysis based on changes in prepayment rates
resulting from the parallel yield curve shifts.

Our dynamic GAP analysis determines the relative balance between the repricing of assets
and liabilities over multiple periods of time (ranging from overnight to five years). Dynamic GAP analysis includes expected cash flows from loans and mortgage-backed securities, applying prepayment rates based on the differential between the
current interest rate and the market interest rate for each loan and security type. This analysis identifies mismatches in the timing of asset and liability repricing but does not necessarily provide an accurate indicator of interest rate risk
because it omits the factors incorporated into the net interest income analysis.

Quantitative Analysis.The following table
sets forth, as of March 31, 2009, the estimated changes in the Banks NPV and net interest income that would result from the designated instantaneous parallel shift in the US Treasury yield curve. Computations of prospective effects of
hypothetical interest rate changes are based on numerous assumptions including relative levels of market interest rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results.

##### Table of Contents

The Company has opted not to include an estimate for a decrease in rates at March 31, 2009 as the
results are not relevant given the current targeted fed funds rate of the Federal Open Market Committee. The table set forth above indicates that at March 31, 2009, in the event of an immediate 200 basis point increase in interest rates, the
Bank would be expected to experience a 1.44% increase in NPV and a $2.9 million decrease in net interest income. This data does not reflect any actions that we may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, such as changes in rates paid on
certain deposit accounts based on local competitive factors, which could reduce the actual impact on NPV and net interest income, if any.

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes in NPV and net interest income requires that we make certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in
which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. The NPV and net interest income table presented above assumes that the composition of our interest-rate sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period
remains constant over the period being measured and, accordingly, the data does not reflect any actions that we may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, such as changes in rates paid on certain deposit accounts based on local
competitive factors. The table also assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or the repricing characteristics of specific assets and liabilities.
Accordingly, although the NPV and net interest income table provides an indication of our sensitivity to interest rate changes at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect
of changes in market interest rates on our net interest income and will differ from actual results.
