Other Events. Shareholders Rights Plan. ------------------------- On January 22, 1997, the Board of Directors of SIS Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") declared a dividend of one Preferred Share Purchase Right (a "Right") for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of the Company, pursuant to a Rights Agreement, dated as of January 22, 1997, between the Company and ChaseMellon Shareholder Services, L.L.C., as Rights Agent (the "Rights Agreement"). The distribution is payable to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 3, 1997. Each Right entitles the holder thereof to purchase under certain circumstances one one-hundredth of a share of a new Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, or, in certain circumstances, to receive cash, property, Common Stock or other securities of the Company at a purchase price of $100.00 per one-hundredth of a preferred share. Initially, the Rights will be attached to all certificates representing the shares of the Common Stock and no separate Rights Certificates will be distributed. The Rights will separate from the shares of Common Stock and a Distribution Date will occur upon the earlier of (i) 10 business days (or such later date as the Company's Board of Directors may determine before a Distribution Date occurs) following a public announcement by the Company that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons, with certain exceptions (an "Acquiring Person"), has acquired, or has obtained the right to acquire, beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (the date of such announcement being the "Stock Acquisition Date") or (ii) 10 business days (or such later date as the Company's Board of Directors may determine before a Distribution Date occurs) following the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer that would result in a person becoming an Acquiring Person. Until the Distribution Date, (i) the Rights will be evidenced by the certificates for shares of Common Stock and will be transferred with and only with such Common Stock certificates, (ii) Common Stock certificates will contain a notation incorporating the Rights Agreement by reference and (iii) the surrender for transfer of any certificates for Common Stock outstanding will also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the shares of Common Stock represented by such certificates. The Rights are not exercisable until the Distribution Date and will expire at the close of business on January 22, 2007, unless earlier redeemed or exchanged by the Company as described below. As soon as practicable after the Distribution Date, Rights Certificates will be mailed to holders of record of shares of the Common Stock as of the close of business on the Distribution Date and, from and after the Distribution Date, the separate Rights Certificates alone will represent the Rights. In the event (a "Flip-In Event") a Person becomes an Acquiring Person (except pursuant to a tender or exchange offer for all outstanding shares of Common Stock at a price and on terms which a majority of the Company's Outside Directors (as defined in the Rights Agreement) determines to be fair to and otherwise in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders (a "fair offer")), each holder of a Right will thereafter have the right to receive, upon -3- exercise of such Right, shares of Common Stock (or, in certain circumstances, cash, property or other securities of the Company) having a Current Market Price (as defined in the Rights Agreement) equal to two times the exercise price of the Right. Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the occurrence of any Flip-In Event, all Rights that are, or (under certain circumstances specified in the Rights Agreement) were, beneficially owned by any Acquiring Person (or by certain related parties) will be null and void in the circumstances set forth in the Rights Agreement. However, Rights will not be exercisable following the occurrence of any Flip-In Event until such time as the Rights are no longer redeemable by the Company as set forth below. For example, at an exercise price of $100.00 per Right, each Right not owned by an Acquiring Person (or by certain related parties) following a Flip-In Event would entitle its holder to purchase $200.00 worth of shares of Common Stock (or other consideration, as noted above) for $100.00. Assuming that the shares of Common Stock had a Current Market Price of $25.00 at such time, the holder of each valid Right would be entitled to purchase eight (8) shares of Common Stock for $25.00. In the event (a "Flip-Over Event") that, at any time on or after the Stock Acquisition Date, (i) the Company shall take part in a merger or other business combination transaction (other than certain mergers that follow a fair offer) and the Company shall not be the surviving entity or (ii) the Company shall take part in a merger or other business combination transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are changed or exchanged (other than certain mergers that follow a fair offer) or (iii) 50% or more of the Company's assets or earning power is sold or transferred, each holder of a Right (except Rights which previously have been voided, as set forth above) shall thereafter have the right to receive, upon exercise, a number of shares of common stock of the acquiring company having a Current Market Price equal to two times the exercise price of the Right. The Purchase Price payable and the number of shares of Preferred Stock (or the amount of cash, property or other securities) issuable upon exercise of the Rights are subject to adjustment from time to time to prevent dilution (i) in the event of a share dividend on, or a subdivision, combination or reclassification of, the shares of Preferred Stock, (ii) if holders of the shares of Preferred Stock are granted certain rights or warrants to subscribe for shares of Preferred Stock or convertible securities at less than the Current Market Price of the Preferred Stock or (iii) upon the distribution to holders of shares of the Preferred Stock of evidences of indebtedness or assets (excluding regular quarterly cash dividends) or of subscription rights or warrants (other than those referred to above). With certain exceptions, no adjustment in the Purchase Price will be required until cumulative adjustments amount to at least 1% of the Purchase Price. The Company is not required to issue fractional shares of the Preferred Stock upon the exercise of any Right or Rights evidenced hereby. In lieu thereof, a cash payment may be made, as provided in the Rights Agreement. At any time until 10 business days following the Stock Acquisition Date, the Company may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $.01 per Right, payable, at the option of the Company, in cash, shares of Common Stock or other consideration as the Board of Directors may determine. Immediately upon the effectiveness of the action of the Company's Board of Directors ordering redemption of the Rights, the Rights will terminate and the only right of the holders of Rights will be to receive the $.01 per Right redemption price. -4- Until a Right is exercised, the holder thereof, as such, will have no rights as a shareholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends. While the distribution of the Rights will not be taxable to shareholders or to the Company, shareholders may, depending upon the circumstances, recognize taxable income in the event that the Rights become exercisable for shares of Common Stock (or cash, property or other securities) of the Company or for common stock of the acquiring company as set forth above. The terms of the Rights, other than key financial terms and the date on which the Rights expire, may be amended by the Board of Directors of the Company prior to the Distribution Date. Thereafter, the provisions of the Rights Agreement may be amended by the Board of Directors only in order to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to make changes which do not adversely affect the interests of holders of Rights (excluding the interests of any Acquiring Person and certain other related parties) or to shorten or lengthen any time period under the Rights Agreement; provided, however, that no amendment to lengthen the time period governing redemption shall be made at such time as the Rights are not redeemable. The Rights Agreement, together with the related Terms of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, Summary of Rights to Purchase Shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock and form of Rights Certificate, is included as an exhibit to a Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The foregoing description of the Rights does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Rights Agreement as included with said Registration Statement on Form 8-A. Stock Repurchase Program. ------------------------- On January 23, 1997, the Company announced a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which the Company's Board of Directors has authorized the purchase of up to 286,180 shares of the Common Stock, or up to 5% of the Common Stock outstanding at December 31, 1996 (the "Stock Repurchase Program"). Under the terms of the Stock Repurchase Program, up to 180,000 of the shares to be purchased during the first calendar year in which the Stock Repurchase Program is in effect (with a goal of purchasing up to 15,000 shares per month) are to be utilized for funding the exercises of stock options, as they may become vested from time to time, which are presently outstanding or may be granted in the future pursuant to current or future Director and/or employee benefit programs. Any additional shares that may be purchased by the Company pursuant to the Stock Repurchase Program (totaling up to a maximum of 106,180 additional shares), are to be held in treasury and would be available for reissuance by the Company at such times and for such purposes as may be deemed necessary, appropriate or advisable by the Company's Board of Directors, including without limitation funding exercises of stock options or grants of restricted stock, which in either case may be issued under current or future Director and/or employee benefit programs. -5- Item 7.

SIS BANCORP, INC. Date: January 23, 1997 By: /s/ F. William Marshall, Jr. F. William Marshall, Jr. President and Chief Executive Officer EX-99 2 EXHIBIT 99 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Date: January 23, 1997 Contact: Ting Chang, Vice President Investor Relations (413) 748-8271 SIS BANCORP ANNOUNCES 1996 RESULTS, STOCK REPURCHASE, AND FIRST QUARTERLY DIVIDEND Company Adopts Shareholder Rights Plan Springfield, MA - January 23, 1997; 8:30 a.m., SIS Bancorp, Inc., (NASDAQ: SISB), the bank holding company for Springfield Institution for Savings ("SIS Bank"), reported today its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 1996. In addition, the Company declared its first quarterly cash dividend, and announced the initiation of a share repurchase plan and the adoption of a shareholder rights plan. The Company reported net income of $2.5 million, or $0.45 per share (fully diluted), and $18.2 million, or $3.26 per share (fully diluted), for the quarter and year ended December 31, 1996. In comparison, the Company reported net income of $7.6 million and $11.5 million, respectively, for the same periods in 1995. The financial results for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996 were influenced by previously reported nonrecurring tax benefits. On a pre-tax basis, operating earnings showed a significant increase over the previous year. For the quarter and year ended December 31, 1996, pre-tax earnings totaled $4.2 million and $13.9 million, respectively, as compared to $1.7 million and $5.7 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 1995. "The year, 1996, was marked by tremendous accomplishments for SIS," said F. William Marshall, Jr., president and chief executive officer of SIS Bancorp. "The 1996 financial results set a new record level of earnings for the Company with operating earnings over 140% higher than in 1995. SIS's strategic direction is committed to growth, and these results demonstrate the Company's success in the market and in building a strong, competitive organization," said Marshall. At December 31, 1996, total assets were $1.35 billion which represented a $277.6 million or 26% increase from year end 1995. Gross loans outstanding at December 31, 1996 totaled $625.0 million and were $51.9 million, or 9%, higher than at December 31, 1995. The Company's strategic emphasis on commercial and home equity lending yielded significant increases in these portfolios during the year. From December 31, 1995, total commercial and industrial loans outstanding increased by $38.1 million, or 32%, to $155.8 million at December 31, 1996. Active promotions of the Company's home equity products resulted in a $36.5 million or 54% increase in home equity loans outstanding from December 31, 1995. The growth in the commercial and home equity portfolios was partially offset by a reduction in the residential mortgage portfolio from $263.6 million at December 31, 1995 to $242.4 million at December 31, 1996. Total deposits at December 31, 1996 were $969.5 million as compared to $885.4 million at December 31, 1995. The $84.1 million increase in deposits at December 31, 1996 can be attributed to a combination of the Company's -2- competitive strategy of providing superior convenience and value, along with the addition of 3 new branches during the year. Over 50% of the increase in total deposits was in non-certificate account categories. Total stockholders' equity at December 31, 1996 was $101.9 million, or 7.56% of total assets, in comparison to $81.5 million, or 7.61% of total assets, at December 31, 1995. At December 31, 1996, the Company's Tier 1 Leverage ratio was 7.41%; on the basis of its regulatory capital ratios, the Company qualifies as a "well capitalized" institution. In 1996, the Company continued to make improvements in asset quality. Total nonperforming assets declined to $7.6 million or 0.56% of total assets at December 31, 1996. The allowance for possible loan losses totaled $15.6 million resulting in reserve coverage of 224% of nonperforming loans, 206% of nonperforming assets, and 2.5% of gross loans. Higher levels of earning assets contributed to growth in net interest income during the quarter and year ended December 31, 1996. Net interest income for the quarter and year ended 1996 was $11.8 million and $43.1 million, respectively, as compared to $9.4 million and $37.4 million for the same periods in 1995. Net interest margin for the quarter and year ended December 31, 1996 was 3.85%; in comparison, net interest margin for the quarter and year ended December 31, 1995 was 3.81% and 4.00 %, respectively. The provision for possible loan losses was $0.8 million for the quarter and $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 1996, as compared to $1.0 million and $4.4 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 1995. For the quarter and year ended December 31, 1996, noninterest income totaled $3.2 million and $11.5 million, respectively, as compared to $1.7 million and $8.1 million, respectively, for the same periods in 1995. During the year ended December 31, 1996, higher residential loan originations resulted in increased gains on the sale of fixed rate loans to the secondary market, which equaled $0.6 million for 1996 as compared to $0.2 million for 1995. Net gain on sale of securities totaled $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1996, as compared to a net loss of $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 1995; the prior year loss was associated with a restructure of the Company's investment portfolio during the fourth quarter of 1995. Fees and other income for the year ended 1996 totaled $10.6 million, which represented a 21% increase over the same period in 1995. This increase resulted from the expansion of the Company's transaction account base. Total noninterest expense for the quarter and year ended December 31, 1996 was $10.1 million and $37.7 million, respectively, compared to $8.5 million and $35.4 million for the same periods in 1995. Operating expenses were 7% higher during 1996 due to investments made to promote growth and to adequately serve the Company's increasing customer base. For the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company had a net tax benefit of $4.3 million as compared to a net tax benefit of $5.8 million for the year ended December 31, 1995. During the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company's effective tax rate was 40%, which resulted in a total income tax expense of $1.7 million; in comparison to the same quarter in 1995, the Company had a net tax benefit of $5.9 million. -3- In addition to reporting earnings, the Company declared its first quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.12 per share payable on February 20, 1997 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on February 3, 1997. Under the Company's share repurchase program as announced, the Board of Directors has authorized the purchase of up to 286,180 shares, or up to 5% of the common stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 1996. The repurchased shares will be held in treasury and be available for issuance in connection with various employee and director benefit programs. "Over the past two years, SIS Bancorp has demonstrated its ability to return to a position of strength in the market and to sustain a growing level of profitability. The Board's confidence in SIS is expressed by the declaration of our fist quarterly dividend and the authorization of a share repurchase program," stated Marshall. "The initiation of a dividend and a share repurchase program should enhance shareholder value while providing sufficient capital to accommodate future growth." The Company also announced that the Board of Directors adopted a shareholder rights plan (the "Rights Plan") on January 22, 1997. Under the terms of the Rights Plan, which is of a type that has been adopted by many publicly traded banks and thrifts, each stockholder of record as of the close of business on February 3, 1997 will receive one right for each share of common stock held by such stockholder to purchase, upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, one one-hundredth of a share of preferred stock of the Company at a purchase price of $100.00. Until and unless the rights are triggered, the rights will be evidenced by the common stock certificates directly, and will transfer automatically with any transfer of the common stock. The initial issuance of the rights has no dilutive effect on the outstanding shares of the Company or the Company's earnings, is not taxable to the Company or to the stockholders, and does not otherwise affect the trading of the Company's shares. If the rights are not triggered or otherwise redeemed by the Board of Directors, the rights will expire on January 22, 2007.
