Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002

(Unaudited)



(1) Basis of Presentation



The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2003.



The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MAF Bancorp, Inc. (Company), and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Mid America
Bank, fsb and subsidiaries (Bank) and MAF Developments, Inc. (MAFD), as of and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 and as of December 31, 2002. All material intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.



(2) Earnings Per Share



Earnings per share is determined by dividing net income
for the period by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Stock options are regarded as potential common stock and are considered in the diluted earnings per share calculations to the extent that they have a dilutive effect. Stock options
are the only adjustment made to average shares outstanding in computing diluted earnings per share. Weighted average shares used in calculating earnings per share are summarized below for the periods indicated:

(3) Commitments and Contingencies



At June 30, 2003, the Bank had outstanding commitments to
originate one-to-four family loans of $1.07 billion, of which $709.5 million were fixed-rate loans and $364.7 million were adjustable-rate loans. Prospective borrowers had locked the interest rate on $513.3 million of these commitments, of which
$370.5 million were fixed-rate loans, with rates ranging from 3.5% to 8.25%, and $142.8 million were adjustable rate loans with rates ranging from 2.25% to 7.25%. The interest rates on the remaining commitments of $560.7 million float at current
market rates. At June 30, 2003, the Bank had outstanding forward commitments to sell $212.5 million of fixed-rate mortgage loans.



At June 30, 2003, the Bank had outstanding standby letters of credit totaling $17.6 million. Of this amount $13.3 million is comprised of letters of
credit to enhance a developers industrial revenue bond financings of commercial real estate in the Banks market. These two letters of credit are collateralized by mortgage-backed securities and U.S. Government and agency securities owned
by the Bank. Additionally, the Company had outstanding standby letters of credit totaling $11.8 million related to real estate development improvements.



The contractual amounts of credit-related financial instruments such as commitments to extend credit, and letters of credit, represent the amounts of
potential accounting loss should the contract be fully drawn upon, the customer default, and the value of any existing collateral become worthless. At June 30, 2003, the Bank had $9.0 million of credit risk related to loans sold to the Federal Home
Loan Bank Mortgage Partnership Finance Program (MPF), $3.9 million of loans sold with recourse to other investors, and approximately $12.0 million of credit risk related to loans with private mortgage insurance in force.



(4) Statement of Cash Flows



For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash
and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods and interest-bearing deposits mature within one day to three months.



(5) Reclassifications



Certain reclassifications of 2002 amounts have been made to conform with the current period presentation.



(6) Segment Information



The Company utilizes the management approach for segment reporting. This approach is based on the way that a
chief decision maker for the Company organizes segments for making operating decisions and assessing performance.

(7) Goodwill and Intangible
Assets



The Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions-an amendment of the Financial Accounting Standards Board,
(FASB) No. 72 and 144 and FASB Interpretation No. 9, effective January 1, 2002. These pronouncements provide that intangible assets with finite lives be amortized and that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will not be
amortized, but rather tested at least annually for impairment. As required, the Company discontinued the amortization of goodwill as of January 1, 2002 and goodwill currently has a net carrying amount of $95.4 million at June 30, 2003. The Company
evaluates goodwill for impairment at least annually. An evaluation was completed as of May 31, 2003. No impairment was deemed necessary as a result of the Companys analysis.



The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill, by segment, for the six months ended June 30, 2003 is as follows:

been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under those plans consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, the Companys net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated in the table below:

(9) Subsequent Event



On July 21, 2003, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of Fidelity Bancorp, Inc. (Fidelity), in an all-stock
transaction. Approximately 2.8 million shares were issued as a result of the transaction and options to purchase Fidelity common stock outstanding at the effective time of the transaction were converted into options to purchase a total of 20,632
shares of the Companys common stock. At acquisition date, Fidelity had $612.9 million in total assets, $434.6 million in deposits and $59.6 million in stockholders equity. The acquisition added five new offices to the Banks branch
network, three in the City of Chicago and two in the suburban markets of Schaumburg and Franklin Park.



(10) New Accounting Pronouncements



In September 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit
or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a
Restructuring). This Statement is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. Adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements.



In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46,
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities which provides new accounting guidance on when to consolidate a variable interest entity. A variable interest entity exists when either the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to
permit the entity to finance its activities by itself, or the equity investors lack one of three characteristics associated with owning a controlling financial interest. Those characteristics include the direct or indirect ability to make decisions
about an entitys activities through voting rights or similar rights, the obligation to absorb the expected loss of an entity if they occur, and the right to receive the expected residual return of the entity if they occur. The Company does not
expect that the adoption of this Interpretation will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.



In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The Statement amends
and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. In general, this Statement should be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect that the application of this Statement will materially impact its consolidated
financial statements.



In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No.
150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. This Statement established standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of
both liabilities and equity. This Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Adoption of this
Statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements.

safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and is including this statement for
purposes of invoking these safe harbor provisions. These forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company, are generally identifiable by use of the words
believe, expect, intend, anticipate, estimate, project, plan, or similar expressions. The Companys ability to predict results or the actual effect of future

operations and could affect managements outlook or future prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries include, but are not limited to, higher than expected costs or unanticipated difficulties associated with the integration of Fidelity
Bancorp into the Company, difficulties or delays in completing the acquisition of St. Francis Capital Corporation, difficulties in the integration or delays in the data processing conversion which may affect the Companys ability to achieve
anticipated cost savings related to the operation of the acquired banking offices of St. Francis, higher than expected costs related to the St. Francis transaction, unanticipated changes in interest rates or flattening of the yield curve,
deteriorating economic conditions which could result in increased delinquencies in the Companys or St. Francis loan portfolio, changes in purchase accounting adjustments and/or amortization periods relating to the St. Francis
acquisition, legislative or regulatory developments, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board, the quality or composition of the Companys or St. Francis
loan or investment portfolios, or further deterioration in the value of investment securities, demand for loan products, secondary mortgage market conditions, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial services and residential real estate in
the Companys and St. Francis market area, unanticipated slowdowns in real estate lot sales or problems in closing pending real estate contracts, delays in real estate development projects, the possible short-term dilutive effect of other
potential acquisitions, if any, and changes in accounting principles, policies and guidelines. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

General



MAF Bancorp, Inc. (Company), is a registered savings and loan holding company incorporated under the laws of the
state of Delaware and is primarily engaged in the retail banking business through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mid America Bank, fsb (Bank), and in the residential land development business primarily through MAF Developments, Inc.



The Bank offers various financial services to its customers
through a network of 43 branches in suburban and urban communities in the Chicago metropolitan area including 13 locations on the north and northwest side of Chicago, a strong presence in Cook County and DuPage County, and increasing penetration of
the rapidly-growing Will and Kane Counties, as well as a presence in the southwest suburbs of Chicago. Management has current plans to open another banking office during 2003 with the site now in development. The Bank is principally engaged in the
business of attracting deposits from the general public and using such deposits, along with other borrowings, to make loans secured by real estate, primarily one-to four-family residential loans. To a lesser

extent, the Bank also makes multi-family mortgage, commercial, residential construction, land acquisition and development and a variety of consumer loans.



The Company also participates in the following businesses
through the designated subsidiaries:



|Subsidiary                             |  | Activity

|Mid America Re, Inc.                   |  | Captive reinsurance of private mortgage insurance



As it has in recent
years, the Company expects to continue to search for and evaluate potential acquisition opportunities that could enhance franchise value and may periodically be presented with opportunities to acquire other institutions, branches or deposits in the
Chicago metropolitan area or which allow the Company to expand outside its current primary market areas. Management intends to review acquisition opportunities across a variety of parameters, including the potential impact on its financial condition
as well as its financial performance in the future. It is anticipated that future acquisitions, if any, will likely be valued at a premium to book value, and generally at a premium to current market value. As such, management anticipates that
acquisitions made by the Company could involve some short-term book value per share dilution and may involve earnings per share dilution depending on the Companys success in integrating the operations of businesses acquired and the level of
cost savings and revenue enhancements that may be achieved. However, based on preliminary estimates of purchase accounting adjustments, the Company currently anticipates that the acquisition of St. Francis will be accretive to earnings per share in
2004.



On July 21, 2003, the Company completed the acquisition
of Fidelity Bancorp in an all-stock transaction. At acquisition date, Fidelity had assets of $612.9 million, deposits of $434.6 million and five branch offices in the Chicago area. Approximately 2.8 million shares were issued as a result of the
transaction and options to purchase Fidelity common stock outstanding at the effective time of the transaction were converted into options to purchase a total of 20,632 shares of the Companys common stock.



On May 21, 2003, the Company announced that it had reached an agreement to
acquire St. Francis Capital Corporation in an all-stock transaction valued at approximately $264 million on the date of the announcement. As previously disclosed, the Company expects this transaction to close in the fourth quarter of 2003. At June
30, 2003, St. Francis had assets of $2.3 billion, deposits of $1.4 billion and 22 branch offices in the Milwaukee area.



During June 2003, the Bank opened two new branch offices in the suburban Plainfield area. In July 2003 new branch offices were also opened in Skokie and
Niles to expand the branch network to its present 43 locations.



Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates



Managements
discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations of the Company is based upon its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, and are more fully described in Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements found in the Companys Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data. The
preparation of these consolidated financial statements require that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense, as well as related disclosures of contingencies.
Managements judgment is based on historical experience, terms of existing contracts, market trends, and other information available to management. The Company believes that of its significant accounting policies, the following may involve a
higher degree of judgment and complexity.

Allowance for loan losses. In evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and
determining, if any, the related provision for loan losses, management considers: (1) subjective factors, including local and general economic business factors and trends, portfolio concentrations and changes in the size and/or general terms of the
loan portfolio, (2) historical loss experience and the change in the mix of the overall portfolio composition over the last five years, (3) specific allocations based upon probable losses identified during the review of the portfolio, and (4)
delinquency in the portfolio and the composition of non-performing loans including the percent of non-performing loans with supplemental mortgage insurance. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses to provide
a reserve against estimated losses in the Banks loans receivable portfolio. The allowance for loan losses reflects managements estimate of the reserves needed to cover probable losses inherent in the Banks loan portfolio.



Valuation of mortgage servicing rights.The Bank
capitalizes the estimated value of mortgage servicing rights upon the sale of loans. The Banks estimated value takes into consideration contractually known amounts, such as loan balance, term, contract rate, and whether the customer escrows
funds with the Bank for the payment of taxes and insurance. These estimates are impacted by loan prepayment speeds, earnings on escrow funds, as well as the discount rate used to present value the cash flow stream. Subsequent to the establishment of
this asset, management reviews the fair value of mortgage servicing rights on a quarterly basis using current prepayment speed, cash flow and discount rate estimates. Changes in these estimates impact fair value, and could require the Bank to record
a valuation allowance, as it did for $2.3 million in 2002 and $904,000 in 2001. Should estimates assumed by management regarding future prepayment speeds on the underlying loans supporting the mortgage servicing rights prove to be incorrect,
additional valuation allowances could occur, or contrarily, valuation allowances could be recovered if changing estimates increase the fair value of mortgage servicing rights.



Real estate held for development.Profits from lot sales in the Companys real estate developments are based on
cash received less the cost of sales per lot, including capitalized interest and an estimate of future costs to be incurred. This is especially true at the outset of a project, where few actual costs have been incurred in the project as a whole. The
estimate of total project costs is reviewed on a quarterly basis by project management. Estimates are subject to change for various reasons, including the duration of the project, changes in rules or requirements of the communities where the
projects reside, soil and weather conditions, increased project budgets, as well as the general level of inflation. Changes in future estimated costs are recognized in the period of change as either a charge or an addition to income from real estate
operations. Additionally, management periodically evaluates the net realizable value from each project by considering other factors, such as pace of lot absorption, sources of funding and timing of disbursements in evaluating the net realizable
value of a development at the end of a reporting period. A charge to current earnings would occur if this evaluation indicated a projects net realizable value did not exceed its recorded cost. Currently, the net realizable value of each land
development project the Company is engaged in exceeds the recorded cost of the project.



Regulation and Supervision



As a federally
chartered savings bank, the Banks deposits are insured up to the applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Chicago, which is one
of the twelve regional banks for federally insured savings institutions comprising the FHLB system. The Bank is regulated by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) and the FDIC. The Bank is further regulated by the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System as to reserves required to be maintained against deposits and certain other matters. Such regulation and supervision establishes a comprehensive framework of activities in which an institution can engage and is intended
primarily for the protection of the insurance fund and depositors. The regulatory structure also gives the regulatory authorities extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities.

##### Table of Contents

Any change in such regulation, whether by the OTS, the FDIC or Congress could have a material impact on the Company and
its operations.



Capital Standards. Savings associations must
satisfy three different measures of capital adequacy: core and tangible capital to total assets ratios as well as a regulatory capital to total risk-weighted assets ratio. The minimum level required for each of these capital standards is established
by regulation. The Company has managed its balance sheet so as to reasonably exceed these minimums. The acquisition of Fidelity did not have a significant impact on capital adequacy levels.



Core Capital Requirement



The core capital requirement, or the required leverage limit,
generally requires a savings institution to maintain core capital of not less than 4% of adjusted total assets. For the Bank, core capital generally includes common stockholders equity (including retained earnings), and minority interests in
the equity accounts of fully consolidated subsidiaries, less intangibles other than certain servicing rights. Investments in and advances to subsidiaries engaged in activities not permissible for national banks are also required to be deducted in
computing core capital.



Tangible Capital
Requirement



Under OTS regulation, savings institutions
are required to meet a minimum tangible capital requirement of 1.5% of adjusted total assets. Tangible capital is defined generally as core capital less any intangible assets, plus purchased mortgage servicing rights in an amount includable in core
capital.



Risk-Based Capital Requirement



The risk-based capital requirement provides that savings institutions
maintain total capital equal to and not less than 8% of total risk-weighted assets. For purposes of the risk-based capital computation, total capital is defined as core capital, as defined above, plus supplementary capital, primarily general loan
loss reserves (limited to a maximum of 1.25% of total risk-weighted assets). In computing total capital, the supplementary capital included cannot exceed 100% of core capital.

Changes in Financial Condition



Total assets of the Company were $5.97 billion at June 30, 2003, an increase of $34.1 million, or 0.6% from $5.94 billion at
December 31, 2002. The increase is due to higher balances in loans receivable and investments held by the Bank, funded by an increase in deposit balances, partially offset by decreases in mortgage-backed securities.



Cash and short-term investments totaled a combined $259.5 million at June 30,
2003, a decrease of $3.2 million, or 1.2%, from the combined balance of $262.7 million at December 31, 2002.



Investment securities available for sale decreased $40.4 million to $267.8 million at June 30, 2003. The decrease reflects maturities and calls of $59.7
million, and sales and writedowns of $53.6 million, offset by $72.9 million in purchases of equity and government agency securities. The Company recognized a gain of $2.7 million on the sale of investment securities available for sale during the six
months ended June 30, 2003, primarily attributable to gains on corporate debt securities, and to a lesser extent, government agency and equity securities. This was offset, however, by aggregate write-downs for other than temporary impairment in the
amount of $8.1 million in the first quarter of 2003 on the amortized cost of two floating-rate debt securities. See Asset Quality for further information relating to investment securities.



Mortgage-backed securities available for sale decreased $50.2 million to
$315.4 million at June 30, 2003. The Company swapped into mortgage-backed securities $85.3 million of prepayment-protected fixed rate mortgage loans, which were subsequently sold during the first quarter along with an additional $60.9 million of
similar mortgage-backed securities. Normal amortization and prepayments totaled $116.8 million. Purchases of collaterized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and mortgage-backed securities totaled $133.0 million. Included in mortgage-backed
securities classified as available for sale at June 30, 2003, are $239.0 million of CMOs, the majority of which are collateralized by FNMA, FHLMC and GNMA mortgage-backed securities, and to a lesser extent by whole loans.



Loans receivable, including loans held for sale, increased $83.8 million, or
1.9%, from December 31, 2002, to $4.61 billion at June 30, 2003. The Bank originated $2.45 billion of loans during the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to $1.40 billion during the prior year period. The higher loan origination volume
was primarily due to continued mortgage refinance activity, including loan modifications, as interest rates have decreased to historical lows. Offsetting the originations for the year was amortization and prepayments of loans totaling $1.40 billion,
and sales of $879.0 million. Loans held for sale decreased from $167.8 million at December 31, 2002 to $92.8 million at June 30, 2003. The balance at December 31, 2002 included $40 million of ARM loans, $31 million of 15-year fixed-rate loans as
well as $97 million of longer term fixed-rate loans, while the balance at June 30, 2003 was comprised of primarily longer term fixed-rate loans. During 2003, the Bank has generally held 15-year fixed-rate loan originations in portfolio in lieu of
investing in other lower yielding structured mortgage products.



The allowance for loan losses totaled $19.4 million and $19.5 million at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 respectively. The Banks allowance for loan losses to total loans outstanding was .42% at June 30, 2003, compared to .44% at
December 31, 2002. Non-performing loans decreased $3.0 million to $22.4 million, or .49% of total loans receivable at June 30, 2003, compared to $25.4 million, or .58% of total loans receivable at December 31, 2002. See Asset Quality in
this section for a further discussion regarding non-performing assets.



In determining the allowance for loan losses and the related provision for loan losses, management considers: (1) subjective factors, including local and general economic business factors and trends, portfolio concentrations and changes in
the size and/or general terms of the loan portfolio, (2) historical loss experience and the change in the mix of the overall portfolio composition over the last five years, (3) specific allocations based upon probable losses identified during the
review of the portfolio, and (4) delinquency in the portfolio and the composition of non-performing loans including the percent of non-performing loans with supplemental mortgage insurance. Based on managements assessment of the adequacy of
the loan loss reserve as of June 30, 2003, as well as the composition of the loan portfolio and non-performing loans, historical

loss experience, and the level of non-performing loans, management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to provide for losses inherent in the
portfolio at June 30, 2003.



Foreclosed real estate decreased
$1.0 million from December 31, 2002, to $1.3 million at June 30, 2003. The Banks foreclosed real estate at June 30, 2003 consisted of eight single-family homes.



Real estate held for development or sale increased $8.3 million from December 31, 2002, to $23.3 million at June 30, 2003
primarily due to continued project development and land acquisition. A summary of the carrying value of real estate held for development or sale follows:

The Springbank
subdivision is located in Plainfield, Illinois and is currently planned to include 1,100 to 1,300 single-family residential lots as well as multi-family parcels depending on zoning ordinances and approvals. At June 30, 2003, MAF Developments, Inc.
had multiple real estate purchase contracts that relate to the acquisition of approximately 894 acres of vacant land for this development. The aggregate purchase price of these contracts is $35.3 million of which $9.7 million has been funded to
date. The contracts contain various contingencies, including satisfactory soil tests, environmental testing, and necessary zoning approvals, and provide for the takedown of the land in staggered closings over a four-year period. The proposed
development is in its early planning stages and may entail the acquisition of additional land in the future. The Company is actively pursuing and expects to receive the required zoning and desired plat with the local planning commission in the third
quarter of 2003 to develop this project with its joint venture partner. Based on the existing purchase contracts, current estimated total development costs (including land acquisition) are approximately $82.0 million. The project will include
single-family residential lots, multi-family and commercial parcels, along with various other amenities, including an 18-hole golf course, and is expected to be developed in a number of phases over a six- to eight-year period with the first lot
closings expected in 2004.



The Shenandoah project is a 326-lot
development located in Plainfield, Illinois. The Company is currently developing and selling lots in the first unit of this project. At June 30, 2003, 69 lots in the Shenandoah project were sold and an additional 68 are under contract. Due to the
rainy weather in the second quarter, 67 lots originally expected to close during the quarter did not. All of the lots currently under contract are expected to close in the third quarter of 2003.



The Company had 17 lot sales in the Tallgrass of Naperville development for
the six months ended June 30, 2003, which were offset, in part, by continued development costs of the final phase of the project. At June 30, 2003, 32 single-family lots remain in Tallgrass, with four under contract. The Tallgrass development also
has approximately 9 acres remaining for development of townhomes, which are under contract and expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2003 at an estimated profit of $1.8 million. There are also two parcels of commercially zoned land that total
12.8 acres and are currently under contract. The first parcel, representing approximately 4.8 acres is expected to close in the third quarter of 2003 at an estimated profit of $700,000, while the second parcel, of approximating 8.0 acres is expected
to close in the fourth quarter of 2003 at an estimated profit of $700,000.



Goodwill increased $579,000 to $95.4 million at June 30, 2003, from $94.8 million at December 31, 2002 due to additional goodwill recorded as a result of a branch acquisition during the first quarter of 2003.

Deposits increased $85.2 million, to $3.84 billion at June 30, 2003. The increase is primarily due to a
$145.8 million increase in core deposit accounts offset by a $60.4 million decrease in certificates of deposit. At June 30, 2003, the Banks core deposits (passbooks, checking and money market accounts) total $2.26 billion or 59.0% of deposits,
compared to $2.12 billion, or 56.4% of deposits at December 31, 2002. After consideration of interest of $15.9 million credited to accounts during the three months ended June 30, 2003, net cash inflows were $47.4 million, including $8.5 million
acquired in the branch acquisition.



Borrowed funds, which
consist primarily of $1.42 billion of FHLB of Chicago advances, were $1.47 billion at June 30, 2003 and $1.56 billion at December 31, 2002. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, $85.5 million of advances matured. Borrowings at June 30, 2003
also include $51.0 million outstanding on the Companys unsecured bank term loan.



Stockholders equity increased $24.4 million, or 4.9% at June 30, 2003, primarily due to net income of $38.8 million, reduced by cash dividends declared of $8.4 million and treasury stock purchased of $5.4
million. Other comprehensive income decreased $3.0 million from December 31, 2002 to June 30, 2003 primarily due to market value decreases. See Asset Quality for a discussion of investments written down since December 31, 2002 and
further declines since that time. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, 150,000 shares of common stock were repurchased at an average cost of $36.19 per share.



Asset Quality



Non-Performing Assets. A loan (whether considered impaired or not) is classified as non-accrual when collectibility is in doubt. Generally,
when a loan is 90 days or more past due, in the process of foreclosure, or in bankruptcy, the full amount of previously accrued but unpaid interest is deducted from interest income. Income is subsequently recorded to the extent cash payments are
received, or at the time when the loan is brought current in accordance with its original terms. This policy is applied consistently for all types of loans in the Banks loan portfolio. Additionally, the Bank considers the classification of
investment securities, should they show signs of deteriorating quality.



Non-performing loans decreased $3.0 million to $22.4 million, or .49% of total loans receivable at June 30, 2003, compared to $25.4 million, or .58% of total loans receivable at December 31, 2002. The decrease in non-performing loans is
primarily due to a decline in one-to four-family non-performing loans. Non-performing assets increased $5.0 million to $32.8 million, or .55% of total assets, at June 30, 2003, from $27.8 million or .47% of total assets at December 31, 2002,
primarily due to two aircraft-related asset-backed securities currently totaling $9.1 million being placed on non-accrual and classified as substandard, offset by the reduction in non-performing loans mentioned above. One of these securities, with a
June 30, 2003 carrying value of $5.8 million, was written down by $3.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2002, and the other with a June 30, 2003 carrying value of $3.3 million was written down by $5.0 million in the first quarter of 2003. Both of
these securities continue to be monitored closely. One of these securities has decreased in market value since the writedown and could potentially be written down further if declines prove to be other than temporary. Based on the June 30, 2003
market value the additional writedown would have been $870,000. A third security written down in the first quarter of 2003, which management has classified as special mention and monitors closely, is not currently included in non-performing assets,
was current as to principal and interest payments at June 30, 2003 and is still accruing interest. The June 30, 2003 carrying value of this collateralized bond obligation security was $5.8 million after the $3.1 million write-down.



For the quarter ended June 30, 2003, interest on non-accrual loans that would
have been recorded as income, had they been performing according to their original terms, amounted to $400,000, compared to $371,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, interest on non-accrual loans that
would have been recorded as income, had they been performing according to their original terms, amounted to $772,000, compared to $722,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002.



Classified Assets. The federal regulators have adopted a classification system for problem assets of insured
institutions which covers all problem assets and requires certain reserves. Under this classification system, problem assets of insured institutions are classified as substandard,



21



---

##### Table of Contents

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 the value 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.



In connection with the filing of its periodic reports with the OTS, the Bank regularly reviews the problem loans in its portfolio to determine whether any loans require classification in accordance with applicable
regulations. At June 30, 2003, all of the Banks non-performing loans were classified as substandard. In addition, the Bank has classified five loans to two different borrowers aggregating $2.0 million of commercial real estate and land

Liquidity and Capital Resources



The Companys principal sources of funds during the six months ended June 30, 2003 were cash dividends paid by the Bank
of $25.0 million. The Companys principal uses of funds during the six months ended June 30, 2003 were cash dividends to shareholders and interest payments on the Companys $51.0 million unsecured bank term loan. No principal payments were
paid or due on this loan since December 31, 2002. The Company has a scheduled principal payment of $6.0 million due on December 31, 2003. The Company also maintains a one-year, $40.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit from a commercial bank,
due and renewable annually on November 30. The line of credit has no outstanding balance as of June 30, 2003. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, the Company declared common stock dividends of $.36 per share, or $8.4 million.



The Banks principal sources of funds are deposits, advances from the
FHLB of Chicago, principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, proceeds from the sale of loans and funds provided by operations. While scheduled loan and mortgage-backed securities amortization and maturing investment securities are
a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows as well as loan and mortgage-backed securities prepayments are greatly influenced by economic conditions, the general level of interest rates and competition. The Bank utilizes particular
sources of funds based on comparative costs and availability. The Bank generally manages the pricing of its deposits to maintain a steady to increasing deposit portfolio in the aggregate, but has from time to time decided not to pay rates on
deposits as high as its competition, and when necessary, to supplement deposits with longer term and/or less expensive alternative sources of funds such as FHLB borrowings.



During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Bank originated loans totaling $2.45 billion compared with $1.40 billion
during the same period in 2002. Loan sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2003, were $879.0 million, compared to $576.6 million for the prior year period. The Bank had outstanding commitments to originate loans of $1.07 billion and commitments
to sell loans of $212.5 million at June 30, 2003. At June 30, 2003, the Company believes that it has sufficient cash to fund its outstanding commitments or will be able to obtain the necessary funds from outside sources to meet its cash
requirements. Please refer to Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, for a
discussion of the Companys contractual obligations and off-balance sheet commitments. Significant changes in off-balance sheet commitments since December 31, 2002 include a $350.6 million increase in mortgage loan commitments, all expiring
within one year, and a $81.6 million increase in unused equity lines of credit balances, primarily with greater than five-year maturities. At June 30, 2003, the Bank had $9.0 million of credit risk related to loans sold to the MPF program, $3.9
million of loans sold with recourse to other investors and approximately $12.0 million of credit risk related to loans with private mortgage insurance in force.



Asset/Liability Management



As part of its normal operations, the Bank is subject to interest-rate risk on the interest-sensitive assets it invests in and the interest-sensitive
liabilities it borrows. The Banks exposure to interest rate risk is reviewed at least quarterly by the Banks asset/liability management committee (ALCO) and the Board of Directors of the Company. The ALCO, which includes
members of senior management, monitors the rate and sensitivity repricing characteristics of the individual asset and liability portfolios the Bank maintains and determines risk management strategies.



The Bank, except as noted below, has not used derivative financial
instruments such as interest rate swaps, caps, floors, options or similar financial instruments to manage its interest rate risk. However, in conjunction with its origination and sale strategy, management does hedge the Banks exposure to
interest rate risk primarily by committing to sell fixed-rate mortgage loans for future delivery. Under these commitments, the Bank agrees to sell fixed-rate loans at a specified price and at a specified future date. The sale of fixed-rate mortgage
loans for future delivery has

enabled the Bank to continue to originate new mortgage loans, and to generate gains on sale of these loans as well as loan servicing fee income, while
maintaining its gap ratio within the parameters discussed above. Most of these forward sale commitments are conducted with FNMA, FHLMC and MPF with respect to loans that conform to the requirements of these government agencies. The forward
commitment of mortgage loans presents a risk to the Bank if the Bank is not able to deliver the mortgage loans by the commitment expiration date. If this should occur, the Bank would be required to pay a fee to the buyer. The Bank attempts to
mitigate this risk by charging potential retail borrowers a 1% fee to fix the interest rate, or by requiring the interest rate to float at market rates until shortly before closing. In addition, the Bank uses U.S. Treasury bond futures contracts and
MBS forward sale commitments to hedge some of the mortgage pipeline exposure. These futures contracts and forward sale commitments are used to hedge mortgage loan production in those circumstances where loans are not sold forward as described above.



The Bank utilizes an interest rate sensitivity gap analysis to
monitor the relationship of maturing or repricing interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, while maintaining an acceptable interest rate spread. Interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of
interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within a specific period of time and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within that same period of time, and is usually analyzed at a period of one year. At June 30, 2003,
the Company was positively gapped over this one-year period. Generally, a positive gap, where more interest-earning assets are repricing or maturing than interest-bearing liabilities, would tend to result in an improvement in net interest income in
a period of rising interest rates. Conversely, during a period of falling interest rates, a positive gap would likely result in a reduction in net interest income. Managements goal is to maintain its cumulative one-year gap within the range of
(15)% to 15%. The gap ratio fluctuates as a result of market conditions and managements decisions based on its expectation of future interest rate trends. The Banks asset/liability management strategy emphasizes, for its own portfolio,
the origination of one- to four-family adjustable-rate loans and other loans which have shorter terms to maturity or reprice more frequently than fixed-rate mortgage loans, yet provide a positive margin over the Banks cost of funds.



The table on the next page sets forth the scheduled repricing
or maturity of the Banks assets and liabilities at June 30, 2003 and managements assumptions regarding prepayment percentages on loans and mortgage-backed securities, based on its current experience in these portfolios. The Bank uses the
withdrawal assumptions used by the FHLB of Chicago with respect to NOW, checking and passbook accounts, which are 17.0%, 17.0%, 17.0%, 16.0%, and 33.0%, respectively. Investment securities and FHLB advances that contain call or put provisions are
generally shown in the category relating to their respective final maturities. However, due to changes in market interest rates, $15.1 million of investments with a final maturity of 37 months, but callable in six months or less are categorized in
the six months or less category, in anticipation of their call.



The effect of these assumptions is to quantify the dollar amount of items that are interest-sensitive and may be repriced within each of the periods specified. Certain shortcomings are inherent in using gap analysis to quantify exposure to
interest rate risk. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or repricings in the table, they may react differently to actual changes in market interest rates. The interest rates on certain types of assets and
liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. This is especially true in circumstances where management has a certain amount of control over
interest rates, such as the pricing of deposits. Additionally, certain assets such as hybrid adjustable-rate mortgage loans have features that restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Finally, as
interest rates change, actual loan prepayment rates may differ significantly from those rates assumed by management for presentation purposes in the table. If actual rates differ from those assumed, there may be an adverse effect on the Banks
operations.

Rate/Volume Analysis of Net Interest Income



The following table describes the extent to which changes in interest rates and changes in the volume of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities have affected the Banks interest income and interest expense during the periods indicated. Information is provided in each category with respect to (i) changes attributable to changes in volume (changes
in volume multiplied by prior rate), (ii) changes attributable to changes in rates (changes in rates multiplied by prior volume), and (iii) the net change. Changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been allocated
proportionately to the changes due to volume and the changes due to rate.

Comparison of the Results of
Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002



General  Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was $19.5 million, or $.82 per diluted share, compared to net income of $16.4 million, or $.69 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2002. The
19.2% increase in earnings per share is primarily due to higher net interest income, loan sale gains, income from real estate development, and deposit account service fees, offset by higher mortgage servicing rights amortization, higher non-interest
expense and income taxes.



Net interest income
 Net interest income was $40.6 million for the current quarter, compared to $38.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $2.4 million or 6.4%. The Companys average interest-earning assets increased to $5.61
billion for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $5.30 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2002, while the Companys net interest margin remained stable at 2.89% for the current three month period, compared to 2.88% for the
prior year quarterly period. Although there was little change in the margin period over period, the yield on total interest earning assets declined 91 basis points and the cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased 96 basis points due to the
declining interest rate environment.



Interest income on loans
receivable decreased $7.3 million despite a $214.5 million increase in average loans receivable. The decline in interest rates has led to a high level of prepayments on higher yielding fixed-rate loans as well as the downward repricing of ARM loans,
which led to a 96 basis point decline in the average yield on loans receivable. The decrease in interest income and average yield on loans receivable was mitigated by the receipt of $732,000 of prepayment penalty

fee income on one-to-four family mortgage loans. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities decreased $174,000 to $2.7 million for the current quarter,
due primarily to a 141 basis point decrease in average yield offset by a $71.7 million increase in average balances, while interest income on investment securities decreased $625,000 to $5.5 million due to a 20 basis point decline in average yield
and a $32.7 million decrease in average balance. Both portfolios experienced a decrease in average yield due to the dramatic decrease in interest rates. The yield on mortgage-backed securities was also negatively affected by faster premium
amortization on mortgage-backed securities due to these securities prepaying much faster than originally expected due to the record low interest rates. The increase in mortgage-backed securities balances is primarily due to purchases during the
quarter as a result of higher cash flows from loan prepayments, loan sales and deposit inflows.



Interest expense on deposit accounts decreased $9.4 million to $14.9 million for the second quarter of 2003, despite a $91.2 million increase in average
deposits compared to the prior year quarter. The 114 basis point decrease in the average cost of deposits for the second quarter of 2003 compared to the prior years three-month period is primarily due to the downward repricing of maturing
certificates of deposit, as well as the lower interest rates paid on core deposits due to the decline in short-term rates. The Bank has been focused on increasing low-cost core deposit balances, which now comprise 59% of the Banks deposit base
compared to 54% at June 30, 2002.



Interest expense on borrowed
funds decreased $1.0 million to $18.5 million, as a result of a 61 basis point decrease in the average cost of borrowed funds offset by an $86.7 million increase in the average balance of borrowed funds, as higher coupon FHLB advances matured and
were replaced with lower coupon advances.



Provision for
loan losses  Based on managements assessment of the adequacy of the loan loss reserve as of June 30, 2003 and 2002, the Bank provided no provision for loan losses during the second quarters of 2003 or 2002. Net charge-offs during
the second quarter of 2003 were $92,000 compared to net charge-offs of $179,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002.



Non-interest income  Non-interest income increased $5.4 million, or 46.4%, to $17.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003,
compared to $11.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002. Increases were primarily in gains on sales of loans, income from real estate development and fee income from deposit accounts, offset by increases in loan servicing fee expense.



Gain on sale of loans increased to $8.3 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002. The increased gains are due to a $189.3 million increase in loan sale volume to $401.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to loan
sales of $212.1 million in the second quarter of 2002, as well as increased margins on sales.



During the three months ended June 30, 2003, the Company recorded a gain of $285,000 on the sale of investment securities, including corporate debt securities and to a lesser extent government agency and equity
securities compared to a gain of $517,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 on the sale of primarily equity and corporate debt securities.



Income from real estate operations increased $1.5 million to $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the prior year quarter. The
increase is primarily due to the sale of 15 lots in the Shenandoah project and 16 Tallgrass lot sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to two lots sold in the prior year period, both in the Tallgrass project. Current quarter income
from real estate was approximately $2.0 million less than expected due to the rainy weather causing a delay in the closing of 67 lots.



Deposit account service charges increased $433,000, or 7.8%, to $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $5.5 million for the
prior year quarter. The rate of growth in service charge income has slowed in recent months, due in part to increased competition and a slowdown in the rate of checking account growth. At June 30, 2003, the Bank had 161,300 checking accounts,
compared to 148,000 at June 30, 2002, an increase of 8.9%.

In April 2003, Visa reached an agreement to settle merchant litigation regarding debit card acceptance,
usage and interchange reimbursement fees. The Bank issues Visa debit cards to a large percentage of its checking account customers. The amount of interchange revenue generated for a transaction depends on whether it is signature-based (offline) or
PIN-based (online). Signature-based transactions generate a higher amount of interchange revenue than PIN-based transactions. During the three months ended June 30, 2003, gross revenue from signature-based debit transactions totaled $1.2 million.
The settlement includes an initial reduction in the signature-based fee collected from merchants of approximately 33% for the period August 1, 2003 through December 31, 2003. Assuming no increase in signature-based debit card volume over
second-quarter levels, the decrease in fees would result in a reduction in net income of approximately $410,000 for the five-month period from August 1, 2003 to December 31, 2003. In addition, the further adjustment of interchange rates beginning
January 1, 2004 may result in additional changes to interchange rates that cannot be predicted at this time. As a result, the magnitude of any financial consequences to the Bank cannot be fully ascertained at this time.



The Company recorded net loan servicing fee expense of $2.0 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to net revenue of $137,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002, a net decrease of $2.1 million. Although the average balance of loans serviced for others increased 30% to $2.21 billion for the second
quarter of 2003, which increased fees received by the Bank, amortization of mortgage servicing rights increased to $3.8 million for the 2003 quarter compared to $999,000 for the prior period due to heavy prepayments resulting from lower interest
rates. During the current three-month period a $940,000 impairment writedown on mortgage servicing rights was recorded compared to a $490,000 impairment writedown in the prior year period as a result of prepayment speeds at each of those times being
higher than previously expected.



Non-interest expense
Non-interest expense increased $2.5 million or 10.1% to $26.7 million, compared to $24.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002.



Compensation and benefits increased 6.4% or $935,000 to $15.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003, compared to the three months ended June
30, 2002. The increase is primarily due to normal salary increases, higher payroll taxes and medical costs and increased staffing related to new branches and higher loan volume.



Occupancy expense increased $652,000, or 23.3% to $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the
prior year period, primarily due to higher depreciation, rent expenses and general maintenance costs, increases that are largely attributable to the addition of four new branch offices and an additional loan operations center compared to the
previous year period.



Advertising and promotion expense
increased $415,000 or 30.5% to $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002 due to increased costs relating to market research activity and increased radio advertising.



Other non-interest expense increased $362,000 or 9.1% to $4.3 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the prior year period. The increased costs were primarily due to higher postage and telephone expenses, as well as higher loan related costs.



Income taxes For the three months ended June 30, 2003, income tax expense totaled $11.3 million, or an
effective income tax rate of 36.5% compared to $9.1 million, or an effective income tax rate of 35.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2002. The higher effective income tax rate in the second quarter of 2003 is primarily the result of higher
state income taxes.



Comparison of the Results of Operations for the Six
Months Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002



General Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $38.8 million, or $1.63 per diluted share, compared to net income of $33.0 million, or $1.39 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The increase in earnings per share
is primarily due to higher net interest income and gain on the sale of loans, offset by higher non-interest expense.

$5.29 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2002, while the Companys net interest margin increased to 2.91% compared to 2.80% for the same periods. The improved margin is attributable to a greater decline in the Banks average cost of
funds compared to the decline in the yield on interest-earning assets, due to the shorter-term nature of the Banks deposit accounts and higher level of core deposit accounts.



Interest income on loans receivable decreased $12.3 million as a result of an 81 basis point decrease in the average yield
offset by a $183.2 million increase in average loans receivable. The decline in the average rate is a function of current originations being at lower interest rates, the downward repricing of ARM loans and equity lines of credit, and heavy
prepayments of higher-rate loans due to declining interest rates. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities increased $977,000 to $6.3 million for the current quarter, due primarily to a $110.2 million increase in average balances, while
interest income on investment securities decreased $1.1 million to $10.8 million, due to a 46 basis point decrease in average yield.



The average balance of interest bearing deposits and federal funds increased $17.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the prior
year period offset by a 21 basis point decrease in average yield. This increase in balances is due to the high level of loan prepayments and fixed rate loan sale activity as well as deposit flows in the current quarter. The decrease in yield is due
to the 75 basis points of additional Federal Reserve Board easing in the last 12 months.



Interest expense on deposit accounts decreased $17.9 million to $31.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, due to a 112 basis point decrease in the average cost of deposits, offset by a $106.1 million
increase in average deposits compared to the prior year period. The decrease in average cost of deposits is primarily due to the downward repricing of maturing certificates of deposit, an increase in low-cost core deposit balances and the lower
rates paid on these deposits as short-term rates have declined.



Interest expense on borrowed funds decreased $2.1 million to $37.5 million, as a result of a 59 basis point decrease in the average cost of borrowed funds offset by a $85.1 million increase in the average balance of borrowed funds.



Provision for loan losses  The Bank did
not have a provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. Net chargeoffs during the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $104,000 compared to net chargeoffs of $232,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The lack of a
provision this period is due to an assessment of a number of factors, including the stable composition of the loan portfolio, good historical loss experience, and the low level of non-performing assets, which is expected to continue. There were no
changes in estimation method or assumptions that impacted the provision for loan loss during the period.



Non-interest income  Non-interest income increased $7.7 million, or 30.6%, to $33.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003,
compared to $25.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The increase is due to increased gains on sales of loans and mortgage-backed securities, higher fee income from deposit accounts and continued positive results in real estate
development operations offset by increased loan servicing fee expense.



Gain on sale of loans increased to $15.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $5.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. A higher level of fixed-rate loan originations and declining interest rates resulting
in improved profit margins led to increased profits from loan sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 2002. Current period loan sale volume was $879.0 million.



Gain on the sale of mortgage-backed securities was $5.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. During the current
six-month period, the Company swapped into mortgage-backed securities a total of $85.3 million of prepayment-protected fixed-rate mortgages, which were



31

subsequently sold along with an additional $60.9 million of similar mortgage-backed securities resulting in the gain for the period. These sales were
undertaken to improve the Companys interest rate risk position by lengthening its asset duration to better match the Companys increased liability duration, as the average lives of these loans and related mortgage-backed securities had
become very short due to high prepayment speeds.



During the
six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company recorded a net loss of $5.4 million on investment securities, reflecting $8.1 million of other than temporary impairment write-downs on two floating-rate debt securities, partially offset by gains of $2.7
million on the sale of $48.2 million of various fixed-rate debt, equity and government securities.



Income from real estate operations increased $265,000 to $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the six months ended June 30,
2002. The increase is due to Shenandoah lot sales, which commenced in 2003, along with higher margins on Tallgrass lots. The Company sold 17 lots in Tallgrass of Naperville project during the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 48 lots for
the prior year period. There are 32 lots remaining to be sold in this 952-lot subdivision at June 30, 2003 of which four are under contract. In Shenandoah, the Company sold 69 lots for the six months period ending June 30, 2003. Currently, there are
68 lots under contract in the 326-lot Shenandoah subdivision. Based on the expected bulk sales of commercial and multifamily acreage in the Tallgrass project in addition to anticipated sales of residential lots in Tallgrass and Shenandoah,
management currently expects that pre-tax income from real estate development for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003 should be in the range of $12-$13 million.



Deposit account service charges increased $1.0 million, or 10.1%, to $11.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003
compared to $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, due to continued growth in the number of checking accounts through acquisition and internal sales efforts, as well as fee increases. At June 30, 2003, the Bank had approximately
161,300 checking accounts, compared to 148,100 at June 30, 2002.



Brokerage commissions increased $134,000, or 10.8%, to $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002. The increase in commission income is due to higher sales volumes due to improved
market conditions and the addition of more seasoned brokers.



Loan servicing fee expense decreased $3.5 million to a net expense of $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $97,000 of net revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The average balance of loans serviced for
others increased 34.0% to $2.16 billion for the current six-month period compared to $1.61 billion for the prior year six-month period. Amortization of mortgage servicing rights was $6.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to
$2.1 million for the prior year six-month period due to higher prepayments in the current period. During the current six-month period a $940,000 impairment writedown on mortgage servicing rights was recorded compared to a $490,000 impairment
writedown in the prior year period as a result of expected higher prepayment speeds at those times.



Other non-interest income increased $450,000, or 9.3% to $5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $4.8 million for the prior year
quarter. The increase is due primarily to increased income from title agency fees, loan modification fee income from refinance transactions as well as income from the Banks mortgage reinsurance subsidiary.



Non-interest expense  Non-interest expense increased $5.6
million or 11.6% compared to the prior year period, to $53.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003.



Compensation and benefits increased 8.1% or $2.3 million to $31.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to the six months ended June
30, 2002. The increase is primarily due to normal salary increases, higher medical costs, and increased staffing due to increased loan origination volume and new branches.



Occupancy expense increased 1.3 million, or 23.3% to $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the six
months ended June 30, 2002, primarily due to increased



32

##### Table of Contents

operating expenses from the four branches and an additional loan operations center opened since the prior year period.



Data processing expense increased $119,000 or 6.5% to $2.0 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002. The increase is primarily due to increased depreciation expense related to additional computer equipment at new and acquired branches.



Other non-interest expense increased $1.3 million to $9.0 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002. Costs increased due to higher professional and loan related costs, as well as higher postage and telephone expense. Increases were primarily due to record loan volume as well
as the addition of four new branches since the prior year period.



Income taxes  For the six months ended June 30, 2003, income tax expense totaled $22.4 million, or an effective income tax rate of 36.5%, compared to $18.5 million, or an effective income tax rate of 35.9%, for the six
months ended June 30, 2002. The higher effective income tax rate in the current six-month period is primarily the result of higher state income taxes.



Outlook for the Balance of 2003



The Company is reiterating its previous outlook for calendar 2003, and currently expects earnings to be in the range of $3.30-$3.35 per diluted
share.



The Companys projections for 2003 assume modest
balance sheet growth over 2002, and a relatively unchanged yield curve from the current level. The Company currently expects loan origination activity to remain steady in the second half of 2003, with loan refinancing activity expected to continue
to be strong through the third quarter. Loan sale volume for 2003 is expected to be 10-20% ahead of 2002 levels. Assuming the economy remains sluggish and the Federal Reserve does not begin tightening monetary policy until sometime in 2004,
management expects some net interest margin compression for the remainder of 2003, with the net interest margin for the full year 2003 estimated to be in a range of 2.82%-2.90%. The Company expects to report continued growth in fee income in 2003
and is currently projecting income from real estate development operations in the range of $12-$13 million for 2003. Results for this segment for the second half of 2003 are expected to substantially exceed the $3.3 million in real estate income
reported in the first half based on planned closings of pending residential, multifamily and commercial sales contracts, some of which were delayed due to weather conditions. The projections also assume continued strong housing and mortgage activity
in the Banks markets and no significant deterioration in credit quality.



|Item 3. |  | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|------- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



A comprehensive qualitative and quantitative analysis regarding market risk is disclosed in the Companys December 31, 2002 Form 10-K. There have
been no material changes in the assumptions used or in the results of market risk analysis as of June 30, 2003 since December 31, 2002. See Asset/Liability Management in Item 2., for a further discussion of the Companys interest
rate sensitivity gap analysis.



|Item 4. |  | Controls and Procedures
|------- |  | -----------------------



As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation under their supervision, with the participation of other members of management as they
deemed appropriate, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as contemplated by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon, and as of the date of that
evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective, in all material respects, in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company
(and its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the periodic reports the Company is required to file and submit to the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act.

##### Table of Contents

The Companys management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer,
does not expect that our Disclosure Controls or our Internal Control over Financial Reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the
objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system will take into account resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all
control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in
decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, any system of controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management
override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all
potential future conditions; over time, controls may require changes to address changes in conditions and other factors to remain effective, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent
limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. However, based on its most recent evaluation of controls, the Companys management believes it has a reasonable basis to conclude
that its system of controls provides reasonable assurances as to the integrity of its financial records and accounts.
