Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

Introduction

Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. (the “Mid-tier”), is offering for sale shares of its common stock in connection with the reorganization of Fox Chase Bank (the “Bank”) into the mutual holding company form of ownership. The shares being offered represent 43.6% of the shares of common stock of the Mid-tier that will be outstanding following the reorganization. The Mid-tier also intends to contribute 135,000 of the shares of the Mid-tier that will be outstanding following the reorganization, and $150,000 in cash to a charitable foundation established by the Fox Chase Bank. After the stock offering, over 50.0% of the Mid-tier outstanding shares of common stock will be owned by Fox Chase, MHC (the “MHC”), the proposed mutual holding company parent. The Mid-tier is the proposed holding company for the Bank. This report represents FinPro, Inc.’s (“FinPro”) updated independent appraisal of the estimated pro forma market value of the common stock (the “Common Stock”) of Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. (hereafter referred to on a consolidated basis as the “Bank”).

In compiling the pro formas, FinPro relied upon the assumptions provided by the Bank and its agents. The pro forma assumptions are as follows:

•

43.57% of the total shares will be sold to the depositors and public,

•

135,000 shares will be contributed to a charitable foundation,

•

cash equal to $150,000 will be contributed to a charitable foundation,

•

the stock will be issued at $10.00 per share,

•

the conversion expenses will be $1.9 million at the midpoint,

•

there will be an ESOP equal to 3.92% of the total shares outstanding funded internally, amortized over 15 years straight-line,

•

there will be an MRP equal to 1.96% of the total shares outstanding, amortized over 5 years straight-line,

•

there will be a Stock Option Plan equal to 10% of the total shares outstanding, expensed at $4.20 per option over 5 years straight-line,

•

the tax rate is assumed at 34.00%, and

•

the net proceeds will be invested at the one-year treasury rate of 4.82%, pre-tax.

It is our understanding that the Bank will offer its stock in a subscription and community offering to Eligible Account Holders, to the Employee Plans and to Supplemental Eligible Account Holders of the Bank. This appraisal has been prepared in accordance with Regulation 563b.7 and the “Guidelines for Appraisal Reports for the Valuation of Savings and Loan Associations Converting from Mutual to Stock Form of Organization” of the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”) which have been adopted in practice by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), including the most recent revisions as of October 21, 1994, and applicable regulatory interpretations thereof.

Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

In the course of preparing our report, we reviewed the Bank’s audited financials for the years ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2005 and the unaudited financials for the three months ended March 31, 2006. We also reviewed the registration statement on Form S-1 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). We have conducted due diligence analysis of the Bank and held due diligence related discussions with the Bank’s Management and Board, Sandler O’Neill & Partners L.P. (the Bank’s underwriter), and Muldoon Murphy and Aggugia LLP (the Bank’s special counsel). The valuation parameters set forth in the appraisal were predicated on these discussions but all conclusions related to the valuation were reached and made independent of such discussions.

Where appropriate, we considered information based upon other publicly available sources, which we believe to be reliable; however, we cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of such information. We visited the Bank’s primary market area and reviewed the market area’s economic condition. We also reviewed the competitive environment in which the Bank operates and its relative strengths and weaknesses. We compared the Bank’s performance with selected publicly traded thrift institutions. We reviewed conditions in the securities markets in general and in the market for savings institutions in particular. Our analysis included a review of the estimated effects of the Conversion of the Bank on the operations and expected financial performance as they related to the Bank’s estimated pro forma value.

In preparing our valuation, we relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of financial and other information provided to us by the Bank and its independent accountants. We did not independently verify the financial statements and other information provided by the Bank and its independent accountants, nor did we independently value any of the Bank’s assets or liabilities. This estimated valuation considers the Bank only as a going concern and should not be considered as an indication of its liquidation value.

Our valuation is not intended, and must not be construed, to be a recommendation of any kind as the advisability of purchasing shares of Common Stock in the stock issuance. Moreover, because such valuation is necessarily based upon estimates and projections of a number of matters, all of which are subject to change from time to time, no assurance can be given that persons who purchase shares of Common Stock in the stock issuance will thereafter be able to sell such shares at prices related to the foregoing valuation of the pro forma market value thereof. FinPro is not a seller of securities within the meaning of any federal or state securities laws. Any report prepared by FinPro shall not be used as an offer or solicitation with respect to the purchase or sale of any securities.

Page: 2

Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

The estimated valuation herein will be updated as appropriate. These updates will consider, among other factors, any developments or changes in the Bank’s financial condition, operating performance, management policies and procedures and current conditions in the securities market for thrift institution common stock. Should any such developments or changes, in our opinion, be material to the estimated pro forma market value of the Bank, appropriate adjustments to the estimated pro forma market value will be made. The reasons for any such adjustments will be explained at that time.

Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

HISTORY AND OVERVIEW

Fox Chase Bank is a community-oriented financial institution dedicated to serving the financial service needs of consumers and businesses within its market area. Fox Chase Bank is subject to extensive regulation, examination and supervision by the Office of Thrift Supervision, its primary federal regulator, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, its deposit insurer. The Bank attracts deposits from the general public and has historically used such funds to originate one-to four-family residential real estate loans, construction and land development loans and consumer loans.

Recently, the Bank has begun to emphasize the origination of multifamily and commercial real estate loans, commercial business loans and construction loans in the Philadelphia metropolitan area and greater Delaware Valley, while eliminating the origination of higher risk acquisition, development and construction loans in the southern New Jersey shore area. At March 31, 2006, the Bank operated out of its main office in Hatboro, Pennsylvania and eight branch offices in Bucks, Montgomery and Philadelphia Counties, Pennsylvania and Atlantic and Cape May Counties, New Jersey. At March 31, 2006, the Bank had total assets of $754.1 million, deposits of $655.9 million and total equity of $63.3 million.

building profitable business and consumer relationships with an emphasis on growing transaction deposit accounts and deposit balances;

PROFITABILITY TRENDS

The Bank’s annual net income increased between the twelve months ended December 31, 2001 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2003. The increase during this time period was primarily a function of rising net interest income and noninterest income. Noninterest expense and income tax expense also increased to a lesser extent.

The Bank posted a $1.9 million net loss during the twelve months ended December 31, 2004. The loss was primarily a function of a $12.3 million posting of provision expense. The Bank posted a $6.0 million profit for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, the Bank recaptured $6.0 million in provision expense. The change in net income/(loss) between the 2004 and 2005 fiscal years was primarily attributable to the $18.3 million change in provision expense. Additionally, between the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, net interest income declined $969 thousand, noninterest income declined $1.1 million, noninterest expense rose $3.9 million and provision for income tax expense rose $4.6 million.

For the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to three months ended March 31, 2005, net income declined $899 thousand or 77.04%. The decline was primarily attributable to a decline in net interest income of $939 thousand and an increase in noninterest expense of $398 thousand. These factors were partially offset by a $454 thousand decline in provision for income tax expense.

The net interest spread and margin decreased between the three months ended March 31, 2006 and the three months ended March 31, 2005. The decrease is attributable to a higher cost of interest bearing liabilities, which was partially offset by a higher yield on earning assets.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On April 28, 2006, Gregory S. Cipa, the former President and Chief Executive Officer of Fox Chase Bank, filed a complaint against Fox Chase Bank in the Civil Division of the Court of Common Pleas of Bucks County, Pennsylvania. In the complaint, Mr. Cipa seeks payment of amounts he states he is owed under various compensation arrangements he claims were in place with Fox Chase Bank. Mr. Cipa seeks monetary damages the amount of which is unspecified but is stated to be in excess of $50,000 to be determined at trial and the payment of attorneys’ fees and litigation costs. On May 23, 2006, Fox Chase answered the complaint and filed a counterclaim. Mr. Cipa answered the counterclaim on June 9, 2006. Fox Chase Bank believes this action is without merit and intends to vigorously pursue this action.

ORDER TO CEASE AND DESIST

In 2003, then-current management determined to emphasize multi-family and commercial real estate lending and construction lending, primarily in the southern New Jersey shore area where it had opened branch offices. However, due to a lack of expertise in these types of lending and a relative unfamiliarity with the market area, these loans were not properly underwritten, including receiving inadequate documentation, and, as a result, many of these loans were criticized or classified in accordance with regulatory guidelines. Additionally, the Bank failed to adopt a risk rating system and update its allowance for loan losses policy to account for the new types of loans that were being originated. Further, management failed to properly review and classify the new types of loans. This type of lending and the absence of adequate underwriting, credit and collection policies and internal controls contributed to the issuance by the Office of Thrift Supervision of a Cease and Desist Order, which the Bank consented to on June 6, 2005.

The Cease and Desist Order cited the following violations of Office of Thrift Supervision laws and regulations:

•

failure to maintain adequate real estate lending policies, as such policies did not provide prudent underwriting standards or administration procedures;

•

loans that were originated in excess of the institution’s loans-to-one-borrower lending limit;

•

failure to adequately evaluate and classify its assets on a regular basis and failure to establish adequate valuation allowance on such classified assets;

•

failure to file accurate regulatory reports, including Office of Thrift Supervision Thrift Financial Report and Suspicious Activity Reports;

•

failure to adhere to the requirements of Regulation O regarding extensions of credits to insiders of the institution;

•

failure to adhere to agency real estate appraisal standards; and

•

failure to provide the required certification on the Office of Thrift Supervision Thrift Financial Reports by officers and directors.

As part of this order, the Office of Thrift Supervision ordered the Bank to discontinue a number of practices, and specifically ordered the Bank to take certain actions. The Bank was ordered to:

•

discontinue originating certain loans;

•

restrict asset growth;

•

hire a new chief executive officer;

•

improving the board’s oversight over lending and risk exposure;

•

developing a new business plan;

•

improving the loan underwriting and appraisal policies, loans-to-one borrower compliance and internal asset review procedures;

•

enhancing the credit administration, board management and governance;

•

providing the Office of Thrift Supervision with quarterly progress reports; and review and analyze the loan portfolio

•

and, as appropriate, review the allowance for loan losses.

Page: 28

Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

Since the issuance of the Order to Cease and Desist, management believes that the Bank has complied with all directives contained in the Order. The following lists all material actions the Bank has taken to comply with the Order:

•

hired new senior management;

•

appointed six new non-employee directors to the board, established new committees and adopted new corporate governance policies, including a code of ethics;

•

adopted detailed and more stringent lending and interest rate risk policies, specifically with regard to policies and procedures for the determination of the allowance for loan losses, real estate underwriting and appraisal policies and procedures and credit administration;

•

developed a new three-year strategic plan, which requires the Bank to improve its capital position and our earnings capability, which contemplates this mutual holding company reorganization and stock offering.

As a result of the Bank’s efforts, effective June 28, 2006, the Order to Cease and Desist was rescinded.

Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

3. Comparisons with Publicly Traded Thrifts

INTRODUCTION

This section presents an analysis of the Bank’s operations against a selected group (“Comparable Group”) of publicly traded Mutual Holding Companies (“MHCs”). The Comparable Group was selected based upon similarity of characteristics to the Bank. The Comparable Group multiples provide the basis for the valuation of the Bank.

Factors that influence the Bank’s value such as balance sheet structure and size, profitability, income and expense trends, capital levels, credit risk, and recent operating results can be measured against the Comparable Group. The Comparable Group’s current market pricing, coupled with the appropriate aggregate adjustment for differences between the Bank and the Comparable Group, will then be utilized as the basis for the pro forma valuation of the Bank’s to-be-issued common stock.

SELECTION CRITERIA

The goal of the selection criteria process is to find those institutions with characteristics that most closely match those of the Bank. In an ideal world, all of the Comparable Group would contain the exact characteristics of the Bank. However, none of the Comparables selected will be exact clones of the Bank.

Based upon our experience, FinPro has determined that MHCs trade at materially different levels relative to fully converted thrifts due to the unique ownership structure. The primary differences between MHCs and fully converted institutions are that MHCs contain a minority interest and have the potential for a second step. In addition, MHCs have the potential for a remutualization transaction. Due to these differences, MHC trading multiples are substantially different from fully converted trading multiples. FinPro concluded that the appropriate Comparable Group should be comprised of liquidly traded MHCs.

Page: 33

Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

As of the date of this updated appraisal, there are a total of 67 MHCs nationally. There are 38 traded on the NYSE, NASDAQ or AMEX. FinPro limited the Comparable Group to institutions whose common stock is listed on a major exchange, since these companies tend to trade regularly. FinPro believes that thrifts that trade over-the-counter or as pink sheets are inappropriate for the Comparable Group, due to irregular trading activity and wide bid/ask spreads, which may skew the trading value and make trading multiples less reliable as an indicator of value.

To begin the screening process, FinPro eliminated the 11 MHCs located outside of the Northeast Region.

FinPro excluded institutions that have recently converted, as the earnings of newly converted institutions do not reflect a full year’s benefit from the reinvestment of proceeds, and thus the price/earnings multiples and return on equity measures for these institutions tend to be skewed upward and downward, respectively. As such, the 10 institutions that converted after March 31, 2005 were eliminated.

Of the remaining 17, FinPro then eliminated 3 of the institutions with assets in excess of $2.0 billion as these entities have greater financial and managerial resources and a broader branch network and 3 of the institutions with assets less than $350 million as they have less financial and managerial resources and a smaller branch network. FinPro also eliminated Westfield as it is undertaking a full second step conversion and it stock price increased dramatically upon the announcement.

This results in a total of 10 Comparables. FinPro review the recent performance and news releases of these 10 companies and determined that all 10 were acceptable Comparables.

BASIS FOR COMPARISON

MHCs have different percentages of minority ownership. In order to adjust for this factor, all of the Comparables’ pricing multiples are represented as if the MHC undertook a second step, based upon standardized assumptions. These multiples will be referred to as “fully converted” pricing multiples.

OVERVIEW OF THE COMPARABLES

The members of the Comparable Group were reviewed against the Bank to ensure comparability based upon the following criteria:

Asset size

Profitability

Capital Level

Balance Sheet Mix

Operating Strategy

Date of conversion

1. Asset Size The Comparable Group should have a similar asset size to the Bank. The Comparable Group ranged in size from $366.2 million to $855.4 million in total assets with a median of $503.7 million. The Bank’s asset size was $754.1 million as of March 31, 2006. On a pro forma basis, the Bank’s assets are projected to be $794.3 million at the midpoint of the estimated value range.

2. Profitability The Comparable Group had a median core ROAA of 0.56% and a median core ROAE of 4.00% for the last twelve months. The Comparable Group profitability measures had a dispersion about the mean for the core ROAA measure ranging from a low of (0.01%) to a high of 0.87%, while the ROAE measure ranged from a low of (0.17%) to a high of 6.81%. The Bank had a core ROAA of 0.21% and a core ROAE of 2.68% for the twelve months ended March 31, 2006. On a pro forma basis, the Bank’s core ROAA and core ROAE are 0.25% and 1.84%, respectively.

3. Capital Level The Comparable Group had a median equity to assets ratio of 12.19% with a high of 23.69% and a low of 4.92%. At March 31, 2006, the Bank had an equity to assets ratio of 8.39%. On a pro forma basis, at the midpoint, the Bank would have an equity to assets ratio of 13.03%.

Page: 35

Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

4. Balance Sheet Mix At March 31, 2006, the Bank had a net loan to asset ratio of 47.18%. The median loan to asset ratio for the Comparables was 57.75%, ranging from a low of 43.06% to a high of 75.62%. On the liability side, the Bank’s deposit to asset ratio was 86.98% at March 31, 2006 while the Comparable median was 72.19%, ranging from 59.97% to 76.82%. The Bank’s borrowing to asset ratio of 3.98% is below the Comparable median of 15.04%.

5. Operating Strategy An institution’s operating characteristics are important because they determine future performance. Operational strategy also affects expected rates of return and investor’s general perception of the quality, risk and attractiveness of a given company. Specific operating characteristics include profitability, balance sheet growth, asset quality, capitalization and non-financial factors such as management strategies and lines of business.

6. Date of Conversion Recent conversions, those completed on or after March 31, 2005, were excluded since the earnings of a newly converted institution do not reflect the reinvestment of conversion proceeds. Additionally, new issues tend to trade at a discount to the market averages.

4. Market Value Determination

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENTS

The estimated pro forma market value of the Bank, along with certain adjustments to its value relative to market values for the Comparable Group are delineated in this section. The adjustments are made from potential investors’ viewpoint and are adjustments necessary when comparing the Bank to the Comparable Group. The adjustment factors are subjectively assessed using the appraiser’s knowledge and expertise and an aggregate adjustment is determined. Potential investors include depositors holding subscription rights and unrelated parties who may purchase stock in the community offering and who are assumed to be aware of all relevant and necessary facts as they pertain to the value of the Bank relative to other publicly traded thrift institutions and relative to alternative investment opportunities.

There are numerous criteria on which the market value adjustments are based. The major criteria utilized for purposes of this report include:

Adjustments Relative to the Comparable Group:

•

Capitalization – The Comparable Group’s median equity to assets ratio of 12.19% is above the Bank’s ratio of 8.39%. The Bank’s pro forma equity to assets ratio is projected to be 13.03% at the midpoint of the valuation range.

Intangible Levels – An important factor influencing market values is the level of intangibles that an institution carries on its books. Three of the Comparables have intangible assets. The Bank does not have any intangible assets.

The asset quality of an institution is an important determinant of market value. The investment community considers levels of nonperforming loans, Real Estate Owned (“REO”) and levels of Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (“ALLL”) in assessing the attractiveness of investing in the common stock of an institution.

The Bank’s level of nonperforming loans (“NPL”) to total loans, at 1.23%, is above the Comparable Group median at 0.04%. The Bank had a nonperforming assets to assets ratio of 0.59%, which is above the Comparable median of 0.03%. The Bank’s reserve level, 2.29% is total loans, is above the Comparable median of 0.65% of loans. The Bank’s level of reserves to NPLs is below that of the Comparable Group, due to the Bank’s higher level of NPLs.

Positive	Neutral	Negative

Lower Borrowings to Assets		Lower Loans to Assets

Higher Deposits to Assets		Lower Capital

Higher ALLL to Loans		Higher NPLs

Higher Pro forma Tangible Capital		Higher NPAs

		Lower ALLL to NPLs

The Bank’s asset mix is not as strong as the Comparable Group’s mix. The Bank has a higher level of deposits and lower level of borrowings as a percentage of assets relative to the Comparable Group. The Bank has lower capital levels, but at the midpoint of the range will have higher tangible capital levels after the reorganization. The Bank has a higher level of NPLs and NPAs, but also has a higher level of reserves as a percentage of loans relative to the Comparable levels. The Bank’s ALLL to NPLs ratio is below the Comparable Group median. Taken collectively, moderate downward adjustment is warranted for financial condition.

BALANCE SHEET GROWTH

The Bank’s assets, loans and deposits have decreased, while the Comparable Group experienced growth. A portion of the decline in balance sheet size was attributable to the restrictions of the Order to Cease and Desist.

EARNINGS QUALITY, PREDICTABILITY AND GROWTH

The earnings quality, predictability and growth are critical components in the establishment of market values for thrifts. Thrift earnings are primarily a function of:

•

net interest income

•

loan loss provision

•

non-interest income

•

non-interest expense

The quality and predictability of earnings is dependent on both internal and external factors. Some internal factors include the mix of the balance sheet, the interest rate sensitivity of the balance sheet, the asset quality, and the infrastructure in place to deliver the assets and liabilities to the public. External factors include the competitive market for both assets and liabilities, the global interest rate scenario, local economic factors and regulatory issues.

Investors are focusing on earnings sustainability as interest rate volatility has caused a wide variation in income levels. With the intense competition for both assets and deposits, banks cannot easily replace lost spread and margin with balance sheet growth.

Each of these factors can influence the earnings of an institution, and each of these factors is volatile. Investors prefer stability and consistency. As such, solid, consistent earnings are preferred to high but risky earnings. Investors also prefer earnings to be diversified and not entirely dependent on interest income.

The Bank’s ROAA is slightly above the Comparable Group median, and ROAE is above the Comparable Group median. However, the Bank’s core ROAA and ROAE of 0.21% and 2.68%, respectively, are below the Comparable median core ROAA and ROAE of 0.56% and 4.00%, respectively. The Bank’s higher capitalization following the offering is expected to reduce return on equity for the near term. On a pro forma basis, the Bank’s core ROAA and core ROAE are 0.25% and 1.84%, respectively.

Note: The data for cost of funds and spread are not meaningful due to the lack of Comparable Data.

The Bank has a 92 basis point disadvantage in net margin. Additionally, the Bank has a 24 basis point disadvantage in noninterest income. These differences are partially offset by a 45 basis point advantage in noninterest expense.

The Bank’s efficiency ratio of 95.14% is above the Comparable median of 76.64%.

On a forward looking basis, after the conversion the Bank’s operating expenses are expected to rise as a result of the stock benefit plans and additional costs of being a public company. At the same time, the Bank will have additional capital to deploy and leverage.

The Bank is less profitable than the Comparables on a core ROAA and core ROAE basis. The Bank’s earnings composition is weaker than the Comparable Group as the Bank has a lower net margin and lower noninterest income. However, the Bank has a lower level of noninterest expense. The Bank’s historical earnings have been inconsistent. Taken collectively, a strong downward adjustment is warranted for this factor.

MARKET AREA

The market area that an institution serves has a significant impact on value, as future success is interrelated with the economic, demographic and competitive aspects of the market. The location of an institution will have an impact on the trading value of an institution, as many analysts compare the pricing of institutions relative to a state or regional multiples in investor presentations.

The following figure compares the demographic and competitive data for the counties serviced by the Bank, to the county data of the Comparable Group members.

Positive	Neutral	Negative
Higher Population Per Branch		Lower Population Growth

Higher Income Growth		Higher Unemployment

		Lower Income

The Bank’s market area has grown and is projected to continue to grow at a slower rate than the Comparable Group’s markets. Unemployment levels are higher in the Bank’s markets. Household income levels are lower in the Bank’s markets, but are projected to grow at a rate faster than the Comparables. The Bank’s market area has a higher ratio of population to branches than the Comparable Group. Based upon these factors, a slight downward adjustment is warranted for market area.

CASH DIVIDENDS

The last few years have seen yet another shift away from dividend policies concurrent with conversion. Recent issues have been fully or oversubscribing without the need for the additional enticement of dividends. After the conversion is another issue, however. Pressures on ROAE and on internal rate of returns to investors prompted the industry toward cash dividends. This trend is exacerbated by the lack of growth potential. Typically, when institutions are in a growth mode, they issue stock dividends or do not declare a dividend. When growth is stunted, these institutions shift toward reducing equity levels and thus utilize cash dividends as a tool in managing equity. Recent tax code changes have made cash dividends more attractive to investors.

All Comparable institutions with the exception of Ocean Shore Holding Company had declared cash dividends. The median dividend payout ratio for the Comparable Group was 69.23%, ranging from a high of 714.29% to a low of 0.00%. The Bank, on a pro forma basis at the mid point of the value range will have an equity to assets ratio of 13.03%. The Bank will have adequate capital and profits to pay cash dividends.

As such, no adjustment is warranted for this factor.

LIQUIDITY OF THE ISSUE

The Comparable Group is by definition composed only of companies that trade in the public markets with all of the Comparables trading on NASDAQ or AMEX. Typically, the number of shares outstanding and the market capitalization provides an indication of how much liquidity there will be in a given stock. The actual liquidity can be measured by volume traded over a given period of time.

The market capitalization values of the Comparable Group range from a low of $67.4 million to a high of $329.9 million with a median market capitalization of $98.8 million. The Bank expects to have $111.0 million of market capital at the midpoint on a pro forma basis. It is expected that the Bank will trade on NASDAQ along all of the Comparables.

No adjustment for this factor appears warranted, due to the similar levels of pro forma market capitalization and expected liquidity, relative to the Comparables.

RECENT REGULATORY MATTERS

Regulatory matters influence the market for thrift conversions. The Bank will operate in substantially the same regulatory environment as the Comparable Group. The only material difference is that the federally regulated Comparables have the ability to waive dividends to the MHC. This factor was addressed in the cash dividends section.

Taken collectively, no adjustment for this factor is warranted as both the Bank and the Comparables will operate in the same ownership structure and will be supervised in the same regulatory environment.

5. Other Factors

MANAGEMENT

As a result of the Order to Cease and Desist, the Bank was required to hire a new CEO and appoint new directors. The current management team including CEO, CFO and lending personnel are new to the institution.

However, the current team has considerable banking experience and has held similar positions in other financial institutions. The current team addressed the items specified in the Order to Cease and Desist and the Order was terminated on June 28, 2006.

The Bank’s organizational chart is reasonable for an institution of its size and complexity. The Board is active and oversees and advises on all key strategic and policy decisions and holds the management to high performance standards.

As such, no adjustment appears to be warranted for this factor.

Page: 55

Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

ORDER TO CEASE AND DESIST

The Cease and Desist Order cited the following violations of Office of Thrift Supervision laws and regulations:

•

failure to maintain adequate real estate lending policies, as such policies did not provide prudent underwriting standards or administration procedures;

•

loans that were originated in excess of the institution’s loans-to-one-borrower lending limit;

•

failure to adequately evaluate and classify its assets on a regular basis and failure to establish adequate valuation allowance on such classified assets;

•

failure to file accurate regulatory reports, including Office of Thrift Supervision Thrift Financial Report and Suspicious Activity Reports;

•

failure to adhere to the requirements of Regulation O regarding extensions of credits to insiders of the institution;

•

failure to adhere to agency real estate appraisal standards; and

•

failure to provide the required certification on the Office of Thrift Supervision Thrift Financial Reports by officers and directors.

As part of this order, the Office of Thrift Supervision ordered the Bank to discontinue a number of practices, and specifically ordered the Bank to take certain actions. The Bank was ordered to:

•

discontinue originating certain loans;

•

restrict asset growth;

•

hire a new chief executive officer;

•

improving the board’s oversight over lending and risk exposure;

•

developing a new business plan;

•

improving the loan underwriting and appraisal policies, loans-to-one borrower compliance and internal asset review procedures;

•

enhancing the credit administration, board management and governance;

•

providing the Office of Thrift Supervision with quarterly progress reports; and review and analyze the loan portfolio; and

•

as appropriate, review the allowance for loan losses.

Page: 56

Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

•

hired new senior management;

•

appointed six new non-employee directors to the board, established new committees and adopted new corporate governance policies, including a code of ethics;

•

As a result of the Bank’s efforts, effective June 28, 2006, the Order to Cease and Desist was rescinded.

FinPro has reviewed and considered the progress evident in the Bank’s recent exam reports. The remaining factors underlying the reasons for the Order to Cease and Desist have been adjusted for elsewhere in this appraisal.

As such, no adjustment is warranted for this factor.

Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

6. Valuation

In applying the accepted valuation methodology promulgated by the regulators, i.e., the pro forma market value approach, three key pricing multiples were considered. The four multiples include:

Price to core earnings (“P/E”)

Price to book value (“P/B”) / Price to tangible book value (“P/TB”)

Price to assets (“P/A”)

All of the approaches were calculated on a pro forma basis including the effects of the conversion proceeds. All of the assumptions utilized are presented in Exhibits 11 through 15.

DISCUSSION OF WEIGHT GIVEN TO VALUATION MULTIPLES

To ascertain the pro forma estimated market value of the Bank, the market multiples for the Comparable Group were utilized. As a secondary check, all Pennsylvania public thrifts, all publicly traded thrifts and the recent (2005 to date) and historical MHC conversions were assessed. The multiples for the Comparable Group, all publicly traded MHC, and Pennsylvania MHC thrifts are shown in Exhibit 9.

Price to Earnings – According to the Appraisal Guidelines: “When both the converting institution and the comparable companies are recording “normal” earnings. A P/E approach may be the simplest and most direct method of valuation. When earnings are low or negative, however, this approach may not be appropriate and the greater consideration should be given to the P/BV approach.” In this particular case, the Bank’s earnings are “normal”. As a basis for comparison, the price to core earnings was utilized for both the Bank and the Comparable Group to eliminate any nonrecurring items. As such, this approach was considered in this appraisal.

In the pro forma figures for the Bank, FinPro incorporated the impact of SFAS 123, which requires the expensing of stock options. In preparing the fully converted pro forma figures for the Comparable Group, FinPro also incorporated the impact of SFAS 123.

Page: 61

Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

Price to Book/Price to Tangible Book - According to the Appraisal Guidelines: “The P/BV approach works best when the converting institution and the Comparables have a normal amount of book value. The P/BV approach could seriously understate the value of an institution that has almost no book value but has an outstanding future earnings potential. For converting institutions with high net worth, the appraiser may have difficulty in arriving at a pro forma market value because of pressure placed on the P/E multiple as higher P/BV levels are required to reflect a similar P/BV ratio as the peer group average. The P/BV approach also suffers from the use of historical cost accounting data.”

Since thrift earnings in general have had a high degree of volatility over the past decade, the P/B is utilized frequently as the benchmark for market value. A better approach is the P/TB approach. In general, investors tend to price financial institutions on a tangible book basis, because it incorporates the P/B approach adjusted for intangibles. Initially following conversion, FinPro believes that thrifts often trade on a price to tangible book basis.

Price to Assets - According to the Appraisal Guidelines: “This approach remedies the problems of a small base that can occur with the P/BV approach, but the approach has many of the other limitations of the latter approach (the P/BV approach).” FinPro places little weight on this valuation approach due to the lack of consideration of asset and funding mixes and the resulting earnings impact.

Conversion Valuation Appraisal Report

FULL OFFERING VALUE IN RELATION TO COMPARABLES

Based upon the adjustments defined in the previous section, the Bank is pricing at the midpoint as if fully converted with a foundation is estimated to be $111,000,000. Based upon a range below and above the midpoint value, the relative values are $94,350,000 at the minimum and $127,650,000 at the maximum respectively. At the super maximum of the range, the offering value would be $146,797,500.

At the various levels of the estimated value range, the full offering would result in the following offering data:

VALUATION CONCLUSION

We believe that the discount on a tangible book basis is appropriate relative to the Comparable Group. This range was confirmed by our analysis of other filed and pending MHC offerings as secondary checks.

It is, therefore, FinPro’s opinion that as of July 19, 2006, the estimated pro forma market value of the Bank in a full offering was $111,000,000 at the midpoint of a range with a minimum of $94,350,000 to a maximum of $127,650,000 at 15% below and 15% above the midpoint of the range respectively. Assuming an adjusted maximum value of 15% above the maximum value, the adjusted maximum value or super maximum value in a full offering is $146,797,500. The shares issued to the foundation will be funded using authorized be unissued shares.

Using the pro forma market values for a full offering shown above, the amount of stock publicly offered as part of the MHC reorganization issuing 43.57% will equal 4,110,745 shares, 4,836,170 shares, 5,561,596 shares and 6,395,835 shares at the minimum, midpoint, maximum and super maximum, respectively. Additionally, the Bank will issue 135,000 shares and $150,000 in cash to the charitable foundation.

The document represents an initial valuation for the Bank. Due to the duration of time that passes between the time this document is compiled and the time the offering closes, numerous factors could lead FinPro to update or revise the appraised value of the Bank. Some factors that could lead FinPro to adjust the appraised value include: (1) changes in the Bank’s operations and financial condition; (2) changes in the market valuation or financial condition of the Comparable Group; (3) changes in the broader market; and (4) changes in the market for thrift conversions. Should there be material changes to any of these factors, FinPro will prepare an appraisal update to appropriately adjust the value of the Bank. At the time of closing, FinPro will prepare a final appraisal to determine if the valuation range is still appropriate and determine the exact valuation amount appropriate for the Bank.
