The GS Financial Corp. Employee Stock Ownership Plan Trust ("Trust") was established pursuant to the
GS Financial Corp. Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP"). Under the terms of the ESOP, the
Trustees will generally vote the allocated shares held in the ESOP in accordance with the instructions of the
participating employees. Unallocated shares held in the ESOP will generally be voted by the ESOP
Trustees in the same proportion for and against proposals to stockholders as the ESOP participants and
beneficiaries actually vote shares of Common Stock allocated to their individual accounts, subject in each
case to the fiduciary duties of the ESOP trustees and applicable law. Any allocated shares which either
abstain on the proposal or are not voted will be disregarded in determining the percentage of stock voted
for and against each proposal by the participants and beneficiaries. As of December 31, 2002, 151,589
shares had been allocated to participants' accounts and 108,319 shares were unallocated.

Item 5.
