DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE: Part III of Form 10-K: Portions of the Proxy Statement for the 2001 Annual Meeting of Stockholders PART I Item 1. Business. General Camco Financial Corporation ("Camco") is a multiple savings and loan holding company organized under Delaware law in 1970. Through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Cambridge Savings Bank ("Cambridge Savings"), Marietta Savings Bank ("Marietta Savings"), First Federal Savings Bank of Washington Court House ("First Federal"), First Federal Bank for Savings ("First Savings"), and Westwood Homestead Savings Bank ("Westwood Savings"), Camco is engaged in the financial services business in Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia. Camco Title Insurance Agency, Inc. ("Camco Title"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Camco, is engaged in the title insurance agency business. Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings, First Federal, First Savings and Westwood Savings (collectively, the "Banks") are members of the Federal Home Loan Bank (the "FHLB") of Cincinnati, and their accounts are insured up to applicable limits by the Savings Association Insurance Fund (the "SAIF") administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"). First Federal and First Savings are subject to regulation, examination and supervision by the United States Department of the Treasury, Office of Thrift Supervision (the "OTS") and the FDIC. Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings are regulated by the Ohio Department of Financial Institutions, Division of Savings Banks (the "Division") and the FDIC. Cambridge Savings and Marietta Savings each own 50% of the outstanding stock of Camco Mortgage Corporation ("CMC"), a service corporation engaged in mortgage lending and related activities in central and southeastern Ohio. Marietta Savings owns 100% of the outstanding stock of WestMar Mortgage Company ("WestMar"), a service corporation engaged in mortgage lending activities, primarily in Wood County, West Virginia. First Savings owns 100% of the stock of First S&L Corporation, a Kentucky corporation incorporated in 1975 for the purpose of acquiring stock in a data processing company located in Cincinnati, Ohio. First S&L Corporation was inactive during 2000. Camco Title Insurance Agency, Inc. ("Camco Title"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Camco, is engaged in the title insurance agency business. In January 2001, Camco announced a restructuring, whereby Camco will merge its five separate bank charters into one savings bank operating under the name AdvantageBank, and will convert all of its banking facilities to one common data processing platform. The restructuring requires regulatory approval which is anticipated in the second quarter of 2001. The offices in each of the regions presently served by Camco's five affiliate banks will operate as divisions of AdvantageBank. The financial statements for Camco and its subsidiaries are prepared on a consolidated basis. The information as of and for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997 has been restated in this document and the consolidated financial statements to reflect the effects of the merger of Camco with GF Bancorp, Inc. which was completed in January 1998 (the "Germantown Merger"). The principal source of revenue for Camco on an unconsolidated basis is dividends from the Banks. Payment of dividends to Camco by the Banks is subject to various regulatory restrictions and tax considerations. See "REGULATION." References in this report to various aspects of the business, operations and financial condition of Camco may be limited to the Banks, as the context requires. -2- SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION The following tables set forth certain information concerning the consolidated financial position and results of operations of Camco at the dates indicated.

The Banks have no rollover provisions in their loan documents and anticipate that loans will be paid in full by the maturity date. Residential Loans. The primary lending activity of the Banks is the origination of fixed-rate and adjustable-rate conventional loans for the acquisition, refinancing or construction of single-family residences. At December 31, 2000, 78.1% of the total outstanding loans consisted of loans secured by mortgages on one- to four-family residential properties. The Banks also originate loans on multifamily housing (over four units) and condominiums. Each of such loans is secured by a mortgage on the underlying real estate and improvements thereon. Federal regulations and Ohio law limit the amount which the Banks may lend in relationship to the appraised value of the underlying real estate at the time of loan origination (the "Loan-to-Value Ratio" or "LTV"). In accordance with such regulations and law, the Banks make loans on single-family residences up to 97% of the value of the real estate and improvements. The Banks generally require the borrower on each loan which has an LTV in excess of 85% to obtain private mortgage insurance. -5- The interest rate adjustment periods on adjustable-rate mortgage loans ("ARMs") offered by the Banks are generally one, three, five or seven years. The interest rates initially charged on ARMs and the new rates at each adjustment date are determined by adding a stated margin to a designated interest rate index. For the past several years, the Banks have used the one-year, three-year, five-year and seven-year United States Treasury bill rates, adjusted to a constant maturity, as the index for their one-year, three-year, five-year and seven-year adjustable-rate loans, respectively. The initial interest rate for a three-year, a five-year and a seven-year ARM is set slightly higher than for the one-year ARM to compensate for the reduced interest rate sensitivity. The maximum adjustment at each adjustment date for ARMs is usually 2%, with a maximum adjustment of 6% over the term of the loan. From time to time, the Banks originate ARMs which have an initial interest rate that is lower than the sum of the specified index plus the margin. Such loans are subject to increased risk of delinquency or default due to increasing monthly payments as the interest rates on such loans increase to the fully indexed level. The Banks attempt to reduce the risk by underwriting such loans at the fully indexed rate. None of the Banks' ARMs have negative amortization features. Residential mortgage loans offered by the Banks are usually for terms of 10 to 30 years, which could have an adverse effect upon earnings if the loans do not reprice as quickly as the cost of funds. To minimize such effect, the Banks emphasize the origination of ARMs and sell fixed-rate loans when conditions favor such a sale. Furthermore, experience reveals that, as a result of prepayments in connection with refinancings and sales of the underlying properties, residential loans generally remain outstanding for periods which are substantially shorter than the maturity of such loans. Of the total mortgage loans originated by the Banks during the year ended December 31, 2000, 60.6% were ARMs and 39.4% were fixed-rate loans. Adjustable-rate loans comprised 63.4% of Camco's total outstanding loans at December 31, 2000. Construction Loans. The Banks offer residential construction loans both to owner-occupants and to builders for homes being built under contract with owner-occupants. The Banks also make loans to persons constructing projects for investment purposes. At December 31, 2000, a total of $56.0 million, or approximately 6.0% of Camco's total loans, consisted of construction loans, primarily for one- to four-family properties. Construction loans to owner-occupants are typically adjustable-rate long-term loans on which the borrower pays only interest on the disbursed portion during the construction period. Some construction loans to builders, however, have terms of up to 24 months at fixed rates of interest. Construction loans for investment properties involve greater underwriting and default risks to the Banks than do loans secured by mortgages on existing properties or construction loans for single-family residences. Loan funds are advanced upon the security of the project under construction, which is more difficult to value in the case of investment properties before the completion of construction. Moreover, because of the uncertainties inherent in estimating construction costs, it is relatively difficult to evaluate precisely the total loan funds required to complete a project and the related Loan-to-Value Ratios. In the event a default on a construction loan occurs and foreclosure follows, Camco could be adversely affected in that it would have to take control of the project and attempt either to arrange for completion of construction or dispose of the unfinished project. At December 31, 2000, the Banks had 17 construction loans in the amount of $4.6 million on investment properties. Nonresidential Real Estate Loans. The Banks originate loans secured by mortgages on nonresidential real estate, including retail, office and other -6- types of business facilities and apartment projects containing 36 or more units. Nonresidential real estate loans are generally made on an adjustable-rate basis for terms of up to 20 years. Nonresidential real estate loans originated by the Banks generally have an LTV of 80% or less. The largest nonresidential real estate loan outstanding at December 31, 2000, was a $2.3 million loan secured by an office building in Cincinnati, Ohio. Nonresidential real estate loans comprised 5.9% of total loans at December 31, 2000. Nonresidential real estate lending is generally considered to involve a higher degree of risk than residential lending due to the relatively larger loan amounts and the effects of general economic conditions on the successful operation of income-producing properties. The Banks have endeavored to reduce this risk by carefully evaluating the credit history and past performance of the borrower, the location of the real estate, the quality of the management constructing or operating the property, the debt service ratio, the quality and characteristics of the income stream generated by the property and appraisals supporting the property's valuation. Federal law limits an association's investment in nonresidential real estate loans to 400% of the association's capital. At December 31, 2000, Camco's investment in nonresidential real estate loans was approximately 69.5% of its total capital. Consumer Loans. The Banks make various types of consumer loans, including loans made to depositors on the security of their savings deposits, automobile loans, education loans, home improvement loans, home equity line of credit loans and unsecured personal loans. Home equity loans and unsecured loans are generally made at a variable rate of interest for terms of up to 10 years. Most other consumer loans are generally made at fixed rates of interest for terms of up to 10 years. The risk of default on consumer loans during an economic recession is greater than for residential mortgage loans. At December 31, 2000, education, consumer and other loans constituted 7.9% of Camco's total loans. Loan Solicitation and Processing. Loan originations are developed from a number of sources, including: solicitations by Camco's lending staff; referrals from real estate brokers and builders; continuing business with depositors, other borrowers and real estate developers; and walk-in customers. Camco does not use loan brokers. Camco's management stresses the importance of individualized attention to the financial needs of its customers. The loan origination process is decentralized, with each of the Banks having autonomy in loan processing and approval for its respective market area. Mortgage loan applications from potential borrowers are taken by one of the loan officers of the Bank originating the loan, after which they are forwarded to the Bank's loan department for processing. On new loans, the loan department typically obtains a credit report, verification of employment and other documentation concerning the borrower and orders an appraisal of the fair market value of the real estate which will secure the loan. The real estate is thereafter physically inspected and appraised by a staff appraiser or by a designated fee appraiser approved by the Board of Directors of the originating Bank. Upon the completion of the appraisal and the receipt of all necessary information regarding the borrower, the mortgage loan application is submitted to the Bank's loan committee for approval. If the loan is approved, an attorney's opinion of title or title insurance is obtained on the real estate which will secure the loan. Borrowers are required to carry satisfactory fire and casualty insurance and flood insurance, if applicable, and to name the originating Bank as an insured mortgagee. The procedure for approval of construction loans is the same as for residential mortgage loans, except that the appraiser evaluates the building plans, construction specifications and construction cost estimates. The originating Bank also evaluates the feasibility of the proposed construction project and the experience and record of the builder. -7- Consumer loans are underwritten on the basis of the borrower's credit history and an analysis of the borrower's income and expenses, ability to repay the loan and the value of the collateral, if any. Loan Originations, Purchases and Sales. The Banks have been actively originating new 30-year, 15-year and 10-year fixed-rate real estate loans as well as adjustable-rate real estate loans and consumer loans. Generally all residential fixed-rate loans made by the Banks are originated on documentation which will permit a possible sale of such loans to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") or other secondary mortgage market participants. When a mortgage loan is sold to the FHLMC, the selling Bank services the loan by collecting monthly payments of principal and interest and forwarding such payments to the FHLMC, net of a servicing fee. During the year ended December 31, 2000 the Banks also sold loans with servicing released. Fixed-rate loans not sold to the FHLMC and substantially all of the ARMs originated by the Banks are held in the Banks' loan portfolios. During the year ended December 31, 2000, Camco sold approximately $119.5 million in loans to the FHLMC and others. Gross income from loans serviced by Camco for others was $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. From time to time, the Banks sell participation interests in mortgage loans originated by them and purchase whole loans or participation interests in loans originated by other lenders. The Banks held whole loans and participations in loans originated by other lenders of approximately $45.0 million at December 31, 2000. Loans which the Banks purchase must meet or exceed the underwriting standards for loans originated by the Banks. In recent years, Camco has purchased mortgage-backed securities insured or guaranteed by U.S. Government agencies in order to improve Camco's asset yield by profitably investing excess funds. Camco intends to continue to purchase such mortgage-backed securities when conditions favor such an investment. See "Investment Activities." -8- The following table presents Camco's mortgage loan origination, purchase, sale and principal repayment activity for the periods indicated:

(2) Other items primarily consist of amortization of deferred loan origination fees, the provision for losses on loans and unrealized gains on mortgage-backed securities designated as available for sale. (3) The 1996 increase resulted from the merger with First Savings and the 2000 increase resulted from the merger with Westwood Savings. Lending Limit. Federal regulations and Ohio law generally impose a lending limit on the aggregate amount that a savings association can lend to one borrower to an amount equal to 15% of the association's total capital for risk-based capital purposes plus any loan reserves not already included in total capital (the "Lending Limit Capital"). A savings association may loan to one borrower an additional amount not to exceed 10% of the association's Lending Limit Capital, if the additional amount is fully secured by certain forms of "readily marketable collateral." Real estate is not considered "readily marketable collateral." In applying this limit, the regulations require that loans to certain related or affiliated borrowers be aggregated. An exception to this limit permits loans of any type to one borrower of up to $500,000. The largest amount which the Banks could have loaned to one borrower at December 31, 2000, was approximately $3.4 million for Cambridge Savings, $2.2 million for Marietta Savings, $1.9 million for First Federal, $2.1 million for First Savings and $2.0 million for Westwood Savings. The largest amount Cambridge Savings had outstanding to one borrower and related persons or entities at December 31, 2000, was $1.3 million, which consisted of 10 loans secured by personal residences and one-to-four family rental properties. The largest amount Marietta Savings had outstanding to one borrower and related persons or entities at December 31, 2000, was $2.0 million, which consisted of 15 loans secured by a personal residence, commercial properties and leasing business residuals. The largest amount First Federal had outstanding to one borrower was $1.8 million, which consisted of one loan secured by a multifamily apartment building. The largest amount First Savings had outstanding to one borrower and related persons or entities at December 31, 2000, was $1.5 million, -9- which consisted of 3 loans secured by a warehouse, apartments and a golf course. The largest amount Westwood Savings had outstanding to one borrower and related persons or entities at December 31, 2000, was $4.9 million which consisted of 14 loans secured by one-to-four family rental units and commercial properties. The Westwood Savings loans were originated at a time when their loans to one borrower limitation was higher. As such, these loans are not in violation of the applicable federal regulation. Loan Origination and Other Fees. In addition to interest earned on loans, the Banks may receive loan origination fees or "points" of up to 2.0% of the loan amount, depending on the type of loan, plus reimbursement of certain other expenses. Loan origination fees and other fees are a volatile source of income, varying with the volume of lending and economic conditions. All nonrefundable loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized as an adjustment to yield over the life of the related loan in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 91. Delinquent Loans, Nonperforming Assets and Classified Assets. The Banks attempt to minimize loan delinquencies through the assessment of late charges and adherence to established collection procedures. Generally, after a loan payment is 15 days delinquent, a late charge of 5% of the amount of the payment is assessed and a loan officer contacts the borrower by mail or phone to request payment. In certain limited instances, the Banks may modify the loan or grant a limited moratorium on loan payments to enable the borrower to reorganize his or her financial affairs. The Banks generally initiate foreclosure proceedings, in accordance with applicable laws, when it appears that a modification or moratorium would not be productive. Real estate which has been or will be acquired by one of the Banks as a result of foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is classified as "real estate owned" until it is sold. "Real estate owned" is recorded at the lower of the book value of the loan or the fair value of the property less estimated selling expenses at the date of acquisition. Periodically, "real estate owned" is reviewed to ensure that fair value is not less than carrying value, and any write-down resulting therefrom is charged to earnings as a provision for losses on real estate acquired through foreclosure. All costs incurred from the date of acquisition are expensed in the period paid. The following table reflects the amount of loans in a delinquent status as of the dates indicated:

(1) Total net loans includes loans held for sale. -10- Nonaccrual status denotes loans for which, in the opinion of management, the collection of additional interest is unlikely, or loans that meet nonaccrual criteria as established by regulatory authorities. Payments received on a nonaccrual loan are either applied to the outstanding principal balance or recorded as interest income, depending on management's assessment of the collectibility of the loan. The following table sets forth information with respect to Camco's nonaccruing and delinquent loans for the periods indicated.

The amount of interest income that would have been recorded had nonaccrual loans performed in accordance with contractual terms totaled approximately $188,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. Interest collected on such loans and included in net earnings was $42,000. At December 31, 2000, there were no loans which were not classified as nonaccrual, 90 days past due or restructured which management considered classifying in the near future due to concerns as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with repayment terms. Federal regulations require each of the Banks to classify its assets on a regular basis. Problem assets are to be classified as either (i) "substandard," (ii) "doubtful" or (iii) "loss." Substandard assets have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful assets have the same weaknesses as substandard assets with the additional characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable on the basis of existing facts, conditions and value. Assets classified as "loss" are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their treatment as assets without the establishment of a specific reserve is unwarranted. Federal regulations provide for the reclassification of real estate assets by federal examiners. -11- Assets classified as substandard or doubtful require the institution to establish prudent general allowances for losses. If an asset or portion thereof is classified as loss, the institution must either establish specific allowances for losses in the amount of 100% of the portion of the asset classified loss or charge off such amount. At December 31, 2000, the aggregate amounts of Camco's classified assets were as follows: At December 31, 2000 -------------------- (In thousands) Classified assets: Substandard $3,280 Doubtful 20 Loss 8 ----- Total classified assets $3,308 ===== The regulations also include a "special mention" category, consisting of assets which do not currently expose an insured institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification, but which possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving management's close attention. Camco had assets in the amount of $1.1 million designated as "special mention" at December 31, 2000. Allowance for Loan Losses. The following table sets forth an analysis of Camco's allowance for loan losses:

Investment Activities Federal regulations require that the Banks maintain a minimum amount of liquid assets, which may be invested in United States Treasury obligations, securities of various agencies of the federal government, certificates of deposit at insured banks, bankers' acceptances and federal funds sold. The Banks are also permitted to make limited investments in commercial paper, corporate debt securities and certain mutual funds, as well as other investments permitted by federal laws and regulations. It has generally been Camco's policy to maintain liquid assets at the Banks in excess of regulatory requirements in order to shorten the maturities of the investment portfolios and improve the matching of short-term investments and interest rate sensitive savings deposit liabilities. The following table sets forth the composition of Camco's investment securities portfolio, except its stock in the FHLB of Cincinnati, at the dates indicated:

Deposits and Borrowings General. Deposits have traditionally been the primary source of Camco's funds for use in lending and other investment activities. In addition to deposits, Camco derives funds from interest payments and principal repayments on loans, advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati and income on earning assets. Loan payments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit inflows and outflows fluctuate more in response to general interest rate and money market conditions. Borrowings from the FHLB of Cincinnati are used on a short-term basis to compensate for reductions in the availability of funds from other sources. FHLB advances and other borrowings are also used on a longer term basis for general business purposes. Deposits. Deposits are attracted principally from within Camco's primary market area through the offering of a broad selection of deposit instruments, including interest and non-interest bearing checking accounts, money market deposit accounts, regular passbook savings accounts, term certificate accounts and retirement savings plans. Interest rates paid, maturity terms, service fees and withdrawal penalties for the various types of accounts are established periodically by management of the Banks based on their particular liquidity requirements, growth goals and interest rates paid by competitors. Interest rates paid by Camco on deposits are not limited by federal or state law or regulation. Camco generally does not obtain funds through brokers or offer premiums to attract deposits. Camco does not have a significant amount of savings accounts from outside its primary market area. -14- The following table sets forth the dollar amount of deposits in the various types of savings programs offered by the Banks at the dates indicated:

The twelve regional FHLBs function as central reserve banks, providing credit for their member institutions. As members in good standing of the FHLB of Cincinnati, the Banks are authorized to apply for advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati, provided certain standards of -15- creditworthiness have been met. Advances are made pursuant to several different programs, each having its own interest rate and range of maturities. Depending on the program, limitations on the amount of advances are based either on a fixed percentage of an institution's regulatory capital or on the FHLB's assessment of the institution's creditworthiness. Under current regulations, a member institution must meet certain qualifications to be eligible for FHLB advances. The extent to which an association is eligible for such advances will depend upon whether it meets the Qualified Thrift Lender ("QTL") test. See "REGULATION - Federal Regulation -- Qualified Thrift Lender Test." If an institution meets the QTL test, it will be eligible for 100% of the advances it would otherwise be eligible to receive. If an institution does not meet the QTL test, it will be eligible for such advances only to the extent it holds QTL test assets. At December 31, 2000, each of the Banks met the QTL test. The following table sets forth the maximum amount of Camco's FHLB advances outstanding at any month end during the periods shown and the average aggregate balances of FHLB advances for such periods:

- -------------------------- (1) Includes mortgage-backed securities. (2) Includes interest-bearing deposits and other. Competition The Banks compete for deposits with other savings associations, savings banks, commercial banks and credit unions and with the issuers of commercial paper and other securities, such as shares in money market mutual funds. The primary factors in competing for deposits are interest rates and convenience of office location. In making loans, the Banks compete with other savings banks, savings associations, commercial banks, consumer finance companies, credit unions and other lenders. The Banks compete for loan originations primarily through the interest rates and loan fees they charge and through the efficiency and quality of the services they provide to borrowers. Competition is affected by, among other things, the general availability of lendable funds, general and local economic conditions, current interest rate levels and other factors which are not readily predictable. -18- Service Corporation Activities Federal regulations permit savings associations to invest an amount up to 2% of their assets in the stock, paid-in surplus and unsecured obligations of subsidiary service corporations engaged in certain activity. In addition, federal regulations generally authorize such institutions which meet the minimum regulatory capital requirements to invest up to 50% of their regulatory capital in conforming first mortgage loans made by service corporations. At December 31, 2000, Cambridge Savings and Marietta Savings each had a direct investment in the capital stock of CMC in the amount of approximately $908,000. The principal business of CMC is originating first mortgage loans on residential real estate located primarily in Coshocton, Muskingum, Stark and Tuscarawas Counties, Ohio. Loans originated by CMC are generally sold to Cambridge Savings. CMC originated $88.1 million of mortgage loans in 2000, $69.2 million of which were sold to Cambridge Savings and $12.4 million of which were sold to Marietta Savings, compared to $129.8 million of mortgage loans in 1999, $122.6 million of which were sold to Cambridge Savings and $7.2 million of which were sold to Marietta Savings. Marietta Savings had a direct investment in the capital stock of WestMar in the amount of approximately $414,000 at December 31, 2000. The principal business of WestMar is originating first mortgage loans on residential real estate located in Wood County, West Virginia. WestMar originated $7.6 million of mortgage loans in 2000, $5.7 million of which were sold to Marietta Savings, compared to $11.1 million of mortgage loans in 1999, $9.5 million of which were sold to Marietta Savings. First S&L Corporation had not conducted any business during the year ended December 31, 2000, and was capitalized on a nominal basis at December 31, 2000. Employees As of December 31, 2000, Camco had 232 full-time employees and 45 part-time employees. Camco believes that relations with its employees are good. Camco offers health and disability benefits and a 401(k) salary savings plan. None of the employees of Camco are represented by a collective bargaining unit. REGULATION General As a savings and loan holding company within the meaning of the Home Owners' Loan Act of 1933, as amended (the "HOLA"), Camco is subject to regulation, examination and oversight by the OTS. First Federal and First Savings are subject to regulation by the OTS and the FDIC. Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings are subject to regulation by the Division and the FDIC. Camco and the Banks must file periodic reports with these governmental agencies, as applicable, concerning their activities and financial condition. Examinations are conducted periodically by the applicable regulators to determine whether Camco and the Banks are in compliance with various regulatory requirements and are operating in a safe and sound manner. The Banks are members of the FHLB of Cincinnati and are also subject to certain regulations promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("FRB"). On November 12, 1999, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the "GLB Act") was enacted into law. The GLB Act repealed prior laws which had generally prevented banks from affiliating with securities and insurance firms and made other significant changes in the financial services in which various types of financial institutions may engage. -19- Prior to the GLB Act, unitary savings and loan holding companies which met certain requirements were the only financial institution holding companies that were permitted to engage in any type of business activity, whether or not the activity was a financial service. The GLB Act continues those broad powers for unitary thrift holding companies in existence on May 4, 1999. Any thrift holding company formed after May 4, 1999, however, will be subject to the same restrictions as multiple thrift holding companies, which generally are limited to activities that are considered incidental to banking. The GLB authorizes a new "financial holding company," which can own banks and thrifts and which are also permitted to engage in a variety of financial activities, including insurance and securities underwriting and agency activities, as long as the depository institutions it owns are well capitalized, well managed and meet certain other tests. The GLB Act is not expected to have a material effect on the activities in which Camco and the Banks currently engage, except to the extent that competition from other types of financial institutions may increase as they engage in activities not permitted prior to enactment of the GLB Act. Ohio Regulation As savings banks incorporated under Ohio law, Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings are subject to regulation by the Division. Such regulation affects the internal organization of Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings, as well as their savings, mortgage lending and other investment activities. Ohio law requires that Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings each maintain at least 60% of their assets in housing-related and other specified investments. At December 31, 2000, Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings had at least 60% of their respective assets in such investments. The ability of Ohio savings banks to engage in certain state-authorized investments is subject to oversight and approval by the FDIC. See "Federal Regulation - State Chartered Bank Activities." Ohio law generally limits the aggregate amount that a savings bank can lend to one borrower to an amount equal to 15% of the institution's unimpaired capital and surplus. See "Lending Activities - Lending Limit." The Division is responsible for the regulation and supervision of Ohio savings banks in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio. Periodic examinations by the Division are usually conducted on a joint basis with the federal examiners. Ohio law requires that Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings maintain federal deposit insurance as a condition of doing business. Any mergers involving, or acquisitions of control of, Ohio savings banks must be approved by the Division. The Division may initiate certain supervisory measures or formal enforcement actions against Ohio savings banks. Ultimately, if the grounds provided by law exist, the Division may place an Ohio savings bank in conservatorship or receivership. In addition to being governed by the laws of Ohio specifically governing savings banks, Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings are also governed by Ohio corporate law, to the extent such law does not conflict with the laws specifically governing savings banks. -20- Federal Regulation Supervision and Examination. The FDIC is responsible for the regulation and supervision of all commercial banks and state savings banks that are not members of the Federal Reserve System ("Non-member Banks"), including Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings. The OTS is responsible for the regulation and supervision of all savings associations, including First Federal and First Savings. Each of the Banks must undergo a full-scope, on-site examination by its primary federal regulator at least (a) once every twelve months, if the bank has total assets of $250 million or more, or (b) once every eighteen months, if the institution has total assets of less than $250 million and satisfies other specified criteria. In lieu of conducting its own examination, the federal regulator may accept a state examination every other examination period. The FDIC issues regulations governing the operations of Non-member Banks, examines such institutions and may initiate enforcement actions against such institutions and certain persons affiliated with them for violations of laws and regulations or for engaging in unsafe or unsound practices. If the grounds provided by law exist, the FDIC may appoint a conservator or a receiver for a Non-member Bank. The OTS issues regulations governing the operations of savings associations, regularly examines such institutions and imposes assessments on savings associations based on their asset size to cover the costs of this supervision and examination. It also promulgates regulations that prescribe permissible activities for federally chartered associations, including the types of lending that such associations may engage in and the investments in real estate, subsidiaries and securities they may make. The OTS also may initiate enforcement actions against savings associations and certain persons affiliated with them for violations of laws or regulations or for engaging in unsafe or unsound practices. If the grounds provided by law exist, the OTS may appoint a conservator or receiver for a savings association. Non-member Banks and savings associations are subject to regulatory oversight under various consumer protection and fair lending laws. These laws govern, among other things, truth-in-lending disclosure, equal credit opportunity, fair credit reporting and community reinvestment. Failure to abide by federal laws and regulations governing community reinvestment could limit the ability of an institution to open a new branch or engage in a merger transaction. State-Chartered Bank Activities. The ability of Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings to engage in any state-authorized activities or make any state-authorized investments, as principal, is limited if such activity is conducted or investment is made in a manner different than that permitted for, or subject to different terms and conditions than those imposed on, national banks. Engaging as a principal in any such activity or investment not permissible for a national bank is subject to approval by the FDIC. Such approval will not be granted unless certain capital requirements are met and there is not a significant risk to the FDIC insurance fund. Most equity and real estate investments (excluding office space and other real estate owned) authorized by state law are not permitted for national banks. Certain exceptions are granted for activities deemed by the FRB to be closely related to banking and for FDIC-approved subsidiary activities. Liquidity. OTS regulations require that each of First Federal and First Savings maintain an average daily balance of liquid assets (cash, certain time deposits, bankers' acceptances, and specified United States Government, state or federal agency obligations). During fiscal 1998, certain maturity requirements were removed, which, for First Federal and First Savings, resulted in a greater eligible liquidity amount and percentage at December 31, 2000, than at prior year ends. At December 31, 1999, such minimum requirement was an amount equal to a monthly average of not less than 4% of its net withdrawable savings deposits -21- plus borrowings payable in one year or less computed as of the end of the prior quarter or based on the average daily balance during the prior quarter. Monetary penalties may be imposed upon associations failing to meet liquidity requirements. The liquidity requirement of First Federal and First Savings was approximately $3.9 million, or 4%, and $2.8 million, or 4%, respectively. First Federal and First Savings' December 2000, monthly average exceeded the liquidity requirement by approximately $3.4 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings are not required to maintain a specific level of liquidity; however, the FDIC expects them to maintain adequate liquidity to protect safety and soundness. Qualified Thrift Lender Trust Savings associations must meet one of two tests in order to be a qualified thrift lender ("QTL"). The first test requires a savings association to maintain a specified level of investments in assets that are designated as qualifying thrift investments ("QTIs"). Generally, QTIs are assets related to domestic residential real estate and manufactured housing, although they also include credit card, student and small business loans and stock issued by any FHLB, the FHLMC or the FNMA. Under the QTL test, 65% of an institution's "portfolio assets" (total assets less goodwill and other intangibles, property used to conduct business and 20% of liquid assets) must consist of QTI on a monthly average basis in nine out of every 12 months. The second test permits a savings association to qualify as a QTL by meeting the definition of "domestic building and loan association" under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). In order for an institution to meet the definition of a "domestic building and loan association" under the Code, at least 60% of its assets must consist of specified types of property, including cash, loans secured by residential real estate or deposits, educational loans and certain governmental obligations. The OTS may grant exceptions to the QTL tests under certain circumstances. If a savings association fails to meet either one of the QTL tests, the association and its holding company become subject to certain operating and regulatory restrictions and the savings association will not be eligible for new FHLB advances. Limitations on Capital Distributions. The OTS imposes various restrictions or requirements on the ability of associations, including First Federal and First Savings, to make capital distributions. Capital distributions include, without limitation, payments of cash dividends, repurchases and certain other acquisitions by an association of its shares and payments to stockholders of another association in an acquisition of such other association. An application must be submitted and approval from the OTS must be obtained by a subsidiary of a savings and loan holding company (i) if the proposed distribution would cause total distributions for the calendar year to exceed net income for that year to date plus the savings association's retained net income for that year to date plus the retained net income for the preceding two years; (ii) if the savings association will not be at least adequately capitalized following the capital distribution; (iii) if the proposed distribution would violate a prohibition contained in any applicable statute, regulation or agreement between the savings association and the OTS (or the FDIC), or violate a condition imposed on the savings association in an OTS-approved application or notice. If a savings association subsidiary of a holding company is not required to file an application, it must file a notice of the proposed capital distribution with the OTS. First Federal and First Savings paid dividends to Camco totaling $2.8 million during 2000. Lending Limits. OTS regulations generally limit the aggregate amount that First Federal and First Savings can lend to one borrower to an amount equal to 15% of the association's Lending Limit Capital. A savings association may lend to one borrower an additional amount not to exceed 10% of the association's unimpaired capital and surplus, if the additional amount is fully secured by certain forms of "readily marketable collateral." Real estate is not considered "readily marketable collateral." Certain types of loans are not subject to these -22- limits. A general exception to the 15% limit provides that an association may lend to one borrower up to $500,000, for any purpose. In applying these limits, the regulations require that loans to certain related borrowers be aggregated. At December 31, 2000, First Federal and First Savings were in compliance with these lending limits. See "Lending Activities - Federal Lending Limit." Regulatory Capital Requirements. The Banks are required by applicable law and regulations to meet certain minimum capital requirements. The capital standards include a leverage limit, or core capital requirement, a tangible capital requirement applicable to First Federal and First Savings, and a risk-based capital requirement. For First Federal and First Savings, the leverage limit requires "core capital" of at least 4% of total assets. "Core capital" is comprised of common stockholders' equity (including retained earnings), noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus, minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries, certain nonwithdrawable accounts and pledged deposits of mutual associations and certain purchased mortgage servicing rights. The tangible capital requirement provides that First Federal and First Savings must maintain "tangible capital" of not less than 1.5% of its adjusted total assets. "Tangible capital" is defined as core capital minus any "intangible assets." For Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings the leverage capital requirement is a minimum level of Tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets of 3%, if they have the highest regulatory examination rating, well diversified risk and minimal anticipated growth or expansion, and between 4% and 5% of average total consolidated assets if they do not meet those criteria. "Tier 1" capital includes common stockholders equity, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and minority interest in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less all intangibles, other than includable purchased mortgage servicing rights and credit card relationships. Pursuant to the risk-based capital requirement, the Banks must maintain total capital, which consists of core or Tier 1 capital and certain general valuation reserves, of 8% of risk-weighted assets. For purposes of computing risk-based capital, assets and certain off-balance sheet items are weighted at percentage levels ranging from 0% to 100%, depending on their relative risk. There are certain differences between the risk weightings applicable to First Federal and First Savings and those applicable to Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings. -23- The following tables present certain information regarding compliance by the Banks with applicable regulatory capital requirements at December 31, 2000:
At December 31, 2000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To be "well-capitalized" For capital under prompt corrective Actual adequacy purposes action provisions -------------------- ------------------- ----------------------- Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio ------ ----- ------ ----- ------ ----- (Dollars in thousands) Cambridge Savings - ----------------- Total capital $22,805 12.1% $15,052 8.0% $18,815 10.0% (to risk-weighted assets) Tier I capital 21,975 11.7 7,526 4.0 11,289 6.0 (to risk-weighted assets) Tier I leverage 21,975 6.6 13,388 4.0 16,736 5.0 Marietta Savings - ---------------- Total capital 14,594 11.7 9,975 8.0 12,469 10.0 (to risk-weighted assets) Tier I capital 13,943 11.2 4,987 4.0 7,481 6.0 (to risk-weighted assets) Tier I leverage 13,943 7.3 7,606 4.0 9,507 5.0 Westwood Savings - ---------------- Total capital 13,381 14.0 7,644 8.0 9,555 10.0 (to risk-weighted assets) Tier I capital 12,710 13.3 3,822 4.0 5,733 6.0 (to risk-weighted assets) Tier I leverage 12,710 8.1 6,288 4.0 7,861 5.0 First Federal - ------------- Tangible capital 11,918 5.7 3,136 1.5 10,452 5.0 Core capital 11,918 5.7 8,362 4.0 12,543 6.0 Risk-based capital 12,366 10.6 9,335 8.0 11,669 10.0 First Savings - ------------- Tangible capital 10,332 7.5 2,076 1.5 6,919 5.0 Core capital 10,332 7.5 5,535 4.0 8,302 6.0 Risk-based capital 10,638 11.9 7,153 8.0 8,941 10.0
-24- The OTS has adopted an interest rate risk component to the risk-based capital requirement. Pursuant to that requirement, a savings association must measure the effect of an immediate 200 basis point change in interest rates on the value of its portfolio, as determined under the methodology established by the OTS. If the measured interest rate risk is above the level deemed normal under the regulation, the association will be required to deduct one-half of that excess exposure from its total capital when determining its level of risk-based capital. In general, an association with less than $300 million in assets and a risk-based capital ratio of greater than 12% will not be subject to this requirement. First Federal and First Savings currently qualifies for such exception. The FDIC has adopted a new interest rate risk component to the capital requirements applicable to Non-member Banks. It includes a final rule to allow for an increase in a Non-member Bank's risk-based capital requirements on an individualized basis to address the bank's exposure to a decline in the economic value of its capital due to a change in interest rates. It also includes a proposed policy to provide for measurement of such decline in economic value by determining the amount of change in the present value of an institution's assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items as a result of a 200 basis point change in interest rates, and taking into account an institution's management of its interest rate risk and the overall risk exposure of the institution. There is a proposed exemption from the policy for small, well-managed institutions with moderate interest rate risk exposure based on asset maturities or repricing schedules. Such institutions must still measure and assess interest rate risk. The FDIC has an outstanding proposal to add a market risk component to the capital requirements of Non-member Banks. Such component would require additional capital for general or specific market risk of trading portfolios of debt and equity securities and other investments or assets. The policy will apply to an institution with less than $5 billion in assets only if its trading portfolio constitutes at least 10% of the institution's assets. Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings cannot predict in what form this market risk component will be adopted, if at all. At December 31, 2000, Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings did not have trading portfolios. The FDIC may also require additional capital to address concentrations of credit and non-traditional activities on a case-by-case basis. The OTS and FDIC have adopted regulations governing prompt corrective action to resolve the problems of capital deficient and otherwise troubled savings associations and Non-member Banks. At each successively lower defined capital category, an institution is subject to more restrictive and numerous mandatory or discretionary regulatory actions or limits, and the applicable agency has less flexibility in determining how to resolve the problems of the institution. In addition, the agency generally can downgrade an institution's capital category, notwithstanding its capital level, if, after notice and opportunity for hearing, the institution is deemed to be engaging in an unsafe or unsound practice, because it has not corrected deficiencies that resulted in it receiving a less than satisfactory examination rating on matters other than capital or it is deemed to be in an unsafe or unsound condition. An undercapitalized institution must submit a capital restoration plan to the applicable agency within 45 days after it becomes undercapitalized. Such institution will be subject to increased monitoring and asset growth restrictions and will be required to obtain prior approval for acquisitions, branching and engaging in new lines of business. Furthermore, critically undercapitalized institutions must be placed in conservatorship or receivership within 90 days of reaching that capitalization level, except under limited circumstances. Each of the Banks' capital levels at December 31, 2000, met the standards for well-capitalized institutions. Federal law prohibits a financial institution from making a capital distribution to anyone or paying management fees to any person having control of the institution if, after such distribution or payment, the institution would be undercapitalized. In addition, each company controlling an undercapitalized institution must guarantee that the institution will comply with its capital -25- restoration plan until the institution has been adequately capitalized on average during each of the four preceding calendar quarters and must provide adequate assurances of performance. The aggregate liability pursuant to such guarantee is limited to the lesser of (a) an amount equal to 5% of the institution's total assets at the time it became undercapitalized or (b) the amount necessary to bring the institution into compliance with all capital standards applicable to such institution at the time the institution fails to comply with its capital restoration plan. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation The FDIC is an independent federal agency that insures the deposits, up to prescribed statutory limits, of federally insured banks and thrifts and safeguards the safety and soundness of the banking and thrift industries. The FDIC administers two separate insurance funds, the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") for commercial banks and state savings banks and the SAIF for savings associations. The Banks are members of the SAIF and their deposit accounts are insured by the FDIC, up to the prescribed limits. The FDIC has examination authority over all insured depository institutions, including the Banks, and has authority to initiate enforcement actions against federally insured savings associations, if the FDIC does not believe the OTS has taken appropriate action to safeguard safety and soundness and the deposit insurance fund. The FDIC is required to maintain designated levels of reserves in each fund. The FDIC may increase assessment rates for either fund if necessary to restore the fund's ratio of reserves to insured deposits to its target level within a reasonable time and may decrease such rates if such target level has been met. The FDIC has established a risk-based assessment system for both SAIF and BIF members. Under this system, assessments vary based on the risk the institution poses to its deposit insurance fund. The risk level is determined based on the institution's capital level and the FDIC's level of supervisory concern about the institution. Transactions with Affiliates and Insiders Loans to executive officers, directors and principal shareholders and their related interests must conform to the lending limit on loans to one borrower, and the total of such loans to executive officers, directors, principal shareholders and their related interests cannot exceed the association's Lending Limit Capital (or 200% of Lending Limit Capital for qualifying institutions with less than $100 million in assets). Most loans to directors, executive officers and principal shareholders must be approved in advance by a majority of the "disinterested" members of the board of directors of the association with any "interested" director not participating. All loans to directors, executive officers and principal shareholders must be made on terms substantially the same as offered in comparable transactions with the general public or as offered to all employees in a company-wide benefit program, and loans to executive officers are subject to additional limitations. The Banks were in compliance with such restrictions at December 31, 2000. All transactions between savings associations and their affiliates must comply with Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act (the "FRA"). An affiliate is any company or entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the financial institution. In a holding company context, the parent holding company of a savings association and any companies that are controlled by such parent holding company are affiliates of the institution. Generally, Sections 23A and 23B of the FRA (i) limit the extent to which a financial institution or its subsidiaries may engage in "covered transactions" with any one affiliate to an amount equal to 10% of such institution's capital stock and surplus for any one affiliate and 20% of such capital stock and surplus for the aggregate of such transactions with all affiliates, and (ii) require that all such transactions be on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the institution or the subsidiary, as those provided to a non-affiliate. The term "covered transaction" includes the making of loans, purchase of assets, issuance of a guarantee and similar types of transactions. In addition to limits in Sections 23A and 23B, First Federal and First Savings may not make any loan or other extension of credit to an affiliate unless the affiliate is engaged only in activities permissible for a bank holding company and may not purchase or invest in securities of any affiliate, except shares of a subsidiary. Exemptions from Sections 23A or 23B of the FRA may be granted only by the FRB. The Banks were in compliance with these requirements at December 31, 2000. -26- Change in Control Federal Law. The Federal Deposit Insurance Act (the "FDIA") provides that no person, acting directly or indirectly or in concert with one or more persons, shall acquire control of any insured depository institution or holding company, unless 60-days prior written notice has been given to the primary federal regulator for that institution and such regulator has not issued a notice disapproving the proposed acquisition. Control, for purposes of the FDIA, means the power, directly or indirectly, alone or acting in concert, to direct the management or policies of an insured institution or to vote 25% or more of any class of securities of such institution. Control exists in situations in which the acquiring party has direct or indirect voting control of at least 25% of the institution's voting shares, controls in any manner the election of a majority of the directors of such institution or is determined to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of such institution. In addition, control is presumed to exist, under certain circumstances where the acquiring party (which includes a group "acting in concert") has voting control of at least 10% of the institution's voting stock. These restrictions do not apply to holding company acquisitions. See "Holding Company Regulation". Ohio Law. A statutory limitation on the acquisition of control of an Ohio savings bank requires the written approval of the Division prior to the acquisition by any person or entity of a controlling interest in an Ohio association. Control exists, for purposes of Ohio law, when any person or entity which, either directly or indirectly, or acting in concert with one or more other persons or entities, owns, controls, holds with power to vote, or holds proxies representing, 15% or more of the voting shares or rights of an association, or controls in any manner the election or appointment of a majority of the directors. A director will not be deemed to be in control by virtue of an annual solicitation of proxies voted as directed by a majority of the board of directors. Ohio law also requires that certain acquisitions of voting securities that would result in the acquiring shareholder owning 20%, 33-1/3% or 50% of the outstanding voting securities of Camco must be approved in advance by the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding voting shares represented at a meeting at which a quorum is present and a majority of the portion of the outstanding voting shares represented at such a meeting, excluding the voting shares by the acquiring shareholder. This statute was intended, in part, to protect shareholders of Ohio corporations from coercive tender offers. Under certain circumstances, interstate mergers and acquisitions involving savings banks incorporated under Ohio law are permitted by Ohio law. A financial institution or financial institution holding company with its principal place of business in another state may acquire a savings and loan association or savings and loan holding company incorporated under Ohio law if, in the discretion of the Division, the laws of such other state give an Ohio institution or an Ohio holding company reciprocal rights. Holding Company Regulation Camco is a multiple savings and loan holding company subject to the regulatory oversight, examination and enforcement authority of the OTS. Though Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Savings are not savings associations, they have elected to be treated as such for holding company purposes, so that Camco is not regulated as a bank holding company. Camco is required to register and file periodic reports with the OTS. If the OTS determines that the continuation of a particular activity by a savings and loan holding company constitutes a serious threat to the financial condition of its subsidiary institutions, the OTS may impose restrictions on the holding company. Such restrictions may include limiting the payment of dividends, transactions with affiliates or any other activities deemed to pose a serious threat to the subsidiary institutions. Generally, no savings and loan holding company may (i) acquire or retain control of a savings association or another savings and loan holding company or control the assets thereof or (ii) acquire or retain more than 5% of the voting shares of a savings association or holding company thereof, which is not a subsidiary, without the prior written approval of the Director of the OTS. -27- Additionally, under certain circumstances a savings and loan holding company is permitted to acquire, with the approval of the Director of the OTS, up to 15% of the previously unissued voting shares of an undercapitalized savings association for cash, without such savings association being deemed to be controlled by the holding company. Except with the prior approval of the Director of the OTS, no director or officer of a savings and loan holding company or person owning or controlling by proxy or otherwise more than 25% of such company's stock may also acquire control of any savings institution, other than a subsidiary institution, or any other savings and loan holding company. The Director of the OTS may approve acquisitions resulting in the formation of a multiple savings and loan holding company which controls savings associations in more than one state, if the multiple savings and loan holding company involved controls a savings association which operated a home or branch office in the state of the association to be acquired as of March 5, 1987, or if the laws of the state in which the institution to be acquired is located specifically permit institutions to be acquired by state-chartered institutions or savings and loan holding companies located in the state where the acquiring entity is located (or by a holding company that controls such state-chartered savings institutions). As under prior law, the Director of the OTS may approve an acquisition resulting in a multiple savings and loan holding company controlling savings associations in more than one state in the case of certain emergency thrift acquisitions. As a multiple savings and loan holding company, the activities of Camco and those of any of its subsidiaries (other than the Banks) are subject to certain restrictions. Generally, no multiple savings and loan holding company or subsidiary thereof that is not a savings association may engage in any business activity other than (i) furnishing or performing management services for a subsidiary savings association, (ii) conducting an insurance agency or an escrow business, (iii) holding, managing or liquidating assets owned by or acquired from a subsidiary savings association, (iv) holding or managing properties used or occupied by a subsidiary savings association, (v) acting as trustee under deeds of trust, (vi) engaging in those activities previously directly authorized by federal regulation as of March 5, 1987, to be engaged in by multiple holding companies, or (vii) furnishing or performing such other services or engaging in those activities authorized by the FRB as permissible for bank holding companies, unless the director of the OTS by regulation prohibits or limits such activities for savings and loan holding companies. Those activities described in (vii) above must also be approved by the Director of the OTS prior to being engaged in by a multiple holding company. Federal law provides that an insured institution shall be liable for any loss incurred by the FDIC in connection with the default or potential default of, or federal assistance provided to, an insured institution which is controlled by the same holding company. Such loss would be apportioned among all of the insured institutions controlled by the holding company. Federal Reserve Requirements FRB regulations currently require savings associations to maintain reserves of 3% of net transaction accounts (primarily NOW accounts) up to $42.8 million (subject to an exemption of up to $5.5 million), and of 10% of net transaction accounts in excess of $42.8 million. At December 31, 2000, each of the Banks was in compliance with its reserve requirements. Federal Home Loan Bank System The FHLBs provide credit to their members in the form of advances. As members of the FHLB of Cincinnati, the Banks are each required to maintain an investment in the capital stock of the FHLB of Cincinnati in an amount equal to the greater of 1.0% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of their residential mortgage loans, home purchase contracts and similar obligations at the beginning of each year, or 5% of their advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati. Camco is in compliance with this requirement with an aggregate investment by the Banks in FHLB of Cincinnati stock of $19.3 million at December 31, 2000. -28- Generally, the FHLB is not permitted to make new advances to a member without positive tangible capital. Upon the origination or renewal of a loan or advance, the FHLB of Cincinnati is required to obtain and to maintain a security interest in collateral in one or more of the following categories: fully disbursed, whole first mortgage loans on improved residential property or securities representing a whole interest in such loans; securities issued, insured or guaranteed by the United States Government or an agency thereof; deposits in any FHLB; or other real estate related collateral (up to 30% of the member's capital) acceptable to the applicable FHLB, if such collateral has a readily ascertainable value and the FHLB can perfect its security interest in the collateral. Each FHLB is required to establish standards of community investment or service that its members must maintain for continued access to long-term advances from the FHLBs. The standards take into account a member's performance under the Community Reinvestment Act and its record of lending to first-time home buyers. All long-term advances by each FHLB must be made only to provide funds for residential housing finance. The FHLBs have established the "Affordable Housing Program" to subsidize the interest rate on advances to member associations engaged in lending for long-term, low- and moderate-income, owner-occupied and affordable rental housing at subsidized rates. The FHLB of Cincinnati reviews and accepts proposals for subsidies under that program twice a year. Cambridge Savings, First Federal and Marietta Savings have participated in this program. Federal Taxation Camco and its subsidiaries are each subject to the federal tax laws and regulations which apply to corporations generally. In addition to the regular income tax, Camco and its subsidiaries may be subject to the alternative minimum tax which is imposed at a minimum tax rate of 20% on "alternative minimum taxable income" (which is the sum of a corporation's regular taxable income, with certain adjustments, and tax preference items), less any available exemptions. Such tax preference items include interest on certain tax-exempt bonds issued after August 7, 1986. In addition, 75% of the amount by which a corporation's "adjusted current earnings" exceeds its alternative minimum taxable income computed without regard to this preference item and prior to reduction by net operating losses, is included in alternative minimum taxable income. Net operating losses can offset no more than 90% of alternative minimum taxable income. The alternative minimum tax is imposed to the extent it exceeds the corporation's regular income tax. Payments of alternative minimum tax may be used as credits against regular tax liabilities in future years. However, the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 repealed the alternative minimum tax for certain "small corporations" for tax years beginning after December 31, 1997. A corporation initially qualifies as a small corporation if it had average gross receipts of $5,000,000 or less for the three tax years ending with its first tax year beginning after December 31, 1996. Once a corporation is recognized as a small corporation, it will continue to be exempt from the alternative minimum tax for as long as its average gross receipts for the prior three-year period does not exceed $7,500,000. In determining if a corporation meets this requirement, the first year that it achieved small corporation status is not taken into consideration. Camco's average gross receipts for the three tax years ending on December 31, 2000, is approximately $63.1 million and as a result, Camco does not qualify as a small corporation exempt from the alternative minimum tax. Certain thrift institutions, such as the Banks, are allowed deductions for bad debts under methods more favorable than those granted to other taxpayers. Qualified thrift institutions may compute deductions for bad debts using either the specific charge-off method of Section 166 of the Code or the experience method of Section 593 of the Code. The "experience" method is also -29- available to small banks. Under the "experience" method, a thrift institution is generally allowed a deduction for an addition to its bad debt reserve equal to the greater of (i) an amount based on its actual average experience for losses in the current and five preceding taxable years, or (ii) an amount necessary to restore the reserve to its balance as of the close of the base year. Thrift institutions that are treated as small banks are allowed to utilize the experience method applicable to such institutions, while thrift institutions that are treated as large banks are required to use only the specific charge-off method. A thrift institution required to change its method of computing reserves for bad debts will treat such change as a change in the method of accounting, initiated by the taxpayer and having been made with the consent of the Secretary of the Treasury. Section 481(a) of the Code requires certain amounts to be recaptured with respect to such change. Generally, the amounts to be recaptured will be determined solely with respect to the "applicable excess reserves" of the taxpayer. The amount of the applicable excess reserves will be taken into account ratably over a six-taxable year period, beginning with the first taxable year beginning after 1995, subject to the residential loan requirement described below. In the case of a thrift institution that is treated as a large bank, the amount of the institution's applicable excess reserves generally is the excess of (i) the balances of its reserve for losses on qualifying real property loans (generally loans secured by improved real estate) and its reserve for losses on nonqualifying loans (all other types of loans) as of the close of its last taxable year beginning before January 1, 1996, over (ii) the balances of such reserves as of the close of its last taxable year beginning before January 1, 1988 (i.e., the "pre-1988 reserves"). In the case of a thrift institution that is treated as a small bank, the amount of the institution's applicable excess reserves generally is the excess of (i) the balances of its reserve for losses on qualifying real property loans and its reserve for losses on nonqualifying loans as of the close of its last taxable year beginning before January 1, 1996, over (ii) the greater of the balance of (a) its pre-1988 reserves or (b) what the thrift's reserves would have been at the close of its last year beginning before January 1, 1996, had the thrift always used the experience method. For taxable years that begin after December 31, 1995, and before January 1, 1998, if a thrift meets the residential loan requirement for a tax year, the recapture of the applicable excess reserves otherwise required to be taken into account as a Code Section 481(a) adjustment for the year will be suspended. A thrift meets the residential loan requirement if, for the tax year, the principal amount of residential loans made by the thrift during the year is not less than its base amount. The "base amount" generally is the average of the principal amounts of the residential loans made by the thrift during the six most recent tax years beginning before January 1, 1996. A residential loan is a loan as described in Section 7701(a)(19)(C)(v) (generally a loan secured by residential or church property and certain mobile homes), but only to the extent that the loan is made to the owner of the property. Camco has provided deferred taxes of approximately $635,000 and began to amortize the recapture of the bad debt reserve over a six year period, which commenced in 1998. The balance of the pre-1988 reserves is subject to the provisions of Section 593(e), as modified by the Act, which require recapture in the case of certain excessive distributions to shareholders. The pre-1988 reserves may not be utilized for payment of cash dividends or other distributions to a shareholder (including distributions in dissolution or liquidation) or for any other purpose (except to absorb bad debt losses). Distribution of a cash dividend by a thrift institution to a shareholder is treated as made: first, out of the institution's post-1951 accumulated earnings and profits; second, out of the pre-1988 reserves; and third, out of such other accounts as may be proper. To the extent a distribution by any of the Banks to Camco is deemed paid out of its pre-1988 reserves under these rules, the pre-1988 reserves would be reduced and the gross income of Camco for tax purposes would be increased by the amount which, when reduced by the income tax, if any, attributable to the inclusion of such amount in its gross income, equals the amount deemed paid out of the pre-1988 reserves. As of December 31, 2000, the pre-1988 reserves for the Banks for tax purposes totaled approximately $9.0 million. Camco believes the Banks -30- had approximately $27.0 million of accumulated earnings and profits for tax purposes as of December 31, 2000, which would be available for dividend distributions, provided regulatory restrictions applicable to the payment of dividends are met. No representation can be made as to whether the Banks will have current or accumulated earnings and profits in subsequent years. The tax returns of Camco have been audited or closed without audit through calendar year 1996. In the opinion of management, any examination of open returns would not result in a deficiency which could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of Camco. Ohio Taxation. Camco and Camco Title are subject to the Ohio corporation franchise tax, which, as applied to them, is a tax measured by both net earnings and net worth. For tax years beginning after December 31, 2000, the rate of tax is the greater of (i) 5.1% on the first $50,000 of computed Ohio taxable income and 8.5% of computed Ohio taxable income in excess of $50,000 or (ii) .400% times taxable net worth. A special litter tax is also applicable to all corporations, including Camco, subject to the Ohio corporation franchise tax other than "financial institutions." If the franchise tax is paid on the net income basis, the litter tax is equal to .11% of the first $50,000 of computed Ohio taxable income and .22% of computed Ohio taxable income in excess of $50,000. If the franchise tax is paid on the net worth basis, the litter tax is equal to .014% times taxable net worth. The Banks are "financial institutions" for State of Ohio tax purposes. As such, they are subject to the Ohio corporate franchise tax on "financial institutions," which is imposed annually at a rate of 1.4% of their book net worth determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For tax year 2001 and years thereafter the tax will be 1.3% of the book net worth. As "financial institutions," the Banks are not subject to any tax based upon net income or net profits imposed by the State of Ohio. CMC and WestMar are subject to the Ohio Dealers in Intangibles property tax but currently incur no liability because they are owned by Ohio financial institutions. Delaware Taxation. As a Delaware corporation, Camco is subject to an annual franchise tax based on the quantity and par value of its authorized capital stock and its gross assets. As a savings and loan holding company, Camco is exempt from Delaware corporate income tax. Kentucky Taxation. The Commonwealth of Kentucky imposes no income or franchise taxes on savings institutions. First Savings is subject to an annual ad valoreum tax which is .1% of First Savings' deposit accounts, common stock and retained income, with certain deductions for amounts borrowed by depositors and securities guaranteed by the U.S. Government or certain of its agencies. West Virginia Taxation. Marietta Savings, First Savings, Camco Title and WestMar are subject to a West Virginia tax on apportioned adjusted net income and a West Virginia franchise tax on apportioned adjusted capital. The adjusted net income of each is taxed at a rate of 9.08%. The franchise tax rate is 0.75% of adjusted capital. The apportionment is based solely on the ratio of gross receipts derived from West Virginia as compared to gross receipts everywhere. -31- Item 2. Properties.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. General Since its incorporation in 1970, Camco has evolved into a full-service provider of financial products to the communities served by its Banks. Utilizing a common marketing theme based on Camco's commitment to personalized customer service, Camco and its affiliates have grown from $22.4 million of consolidated assets in 1970 to $1.038 billion of consolidated assets at December 31, 2000. Camco's rate of growth is largely attributable to its acquisitions of Marietta Savings, First Federal, First Savings, GF Bancorp and Westwood Homestead and its continued expansion of product lines from the limited deposit and loan offerings which the Banks could offer in the heavily regulated environment of the 1970s to the wider array of financial service products that commercial banks traditionally offered. Additionally, Camco has enhanced its operational growth by integrating its residential lending function through establishing mortgage banking operations in the Banks' primary market areas and, to a lesser extent, by chartering a title insurance agency. Management believes that continued success in the financial services industry will be achieved by those institutions with a rigorous dedication to building value-added customer-oriented organizations. Toward this end, each of the Banks' are operationally decentralized, with a management team focusing on consumer preferences for financial products in the respective communities served. Based on consumer preferences, Camco's management designs financial service products with a view towards differentiating each of the constituent Banks from its competition. Management believes that the Banks' abilities to rapidly adapt to consumer needs and preferences is essential to them as community-based financial institutions competing against the larger regional and money-center bank holding companies. Camco's profitability depends primarily on its level of net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on interest-earning assets, principally loans, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities, and interest expense on deposit accounts and borrowings. In recent years, Camco's net earnings have also been heavily influenced by its level of other income, including gains on sale of loans, loan servicing fees and other fees. Camco's operations are also influenced by general, administrative and other expenses, including employee compensation and benefits, occupancy expense, federal deposit insurance premiums, data processing, franchise taxes, advertising, other operating expenses and federal income tax expense. Asset and Liability Management Net interest income, the difference between the yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, is the principal component of Camco's net earnings. The ability to maximize net interest income is largely dependent upon the achievement of a positive interest rate spread that can be sustained during fluctuations in prevailing interest rate levels. Interest rate sensitivity is a measure of the difference between amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities which either -38- reprice or mature within a given period of time. The difference, or the interest rate repricing "gap", provides an indication of the extent to which a financial institution's interest rate spread will be affected by changes in interest rates. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities and is considered negative when the amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets. Generally, during a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap within shorter maturities would adversely affect net interest income, while a positive gap within shorter maturities would result in an increase in net interest income. Conversely, during a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap within shorter maturities would result in an increase in net interest income, while a positive gap within shorter maturities would have the opposite effect. In recognition of the foregoing factors, the Board of Directors of each of the Banks has implemented an asset and liability management strategy directed toward improving each Bank's interest rate sensitivity. The principal common elements of such strategies include (1) meeting the consumer preference for fixed-rate loans over the past several years by selling such loans in the secondary market, (2) originating adjustable-rate mortgage loans ("ARMs") as demand increases coincident with an overall rise in interest rates in the economy, (3) maintaining higher levels of liquid assets, such as cash, short-term interest-earning deposits and short-term investment securities as a hedge against rising interest rates in a lower interest rate environment, and (4) utilizing FHLB advances and longer term certificates of deposit as funding sources when available. The following table contains information regarding the amounts of various categories of assets and liabilities repricing within the periods indicated:

The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Westwood Homestead in January 2000, which resulted in net asset growth of approximately $159.7 million, deposit growth of $100.5 million and increased advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of $35.2 million. The additional growth in assets was primarily funded by an increase in deposits of $70.0 million and an increase in stockholders' equity of $4.4 million. Cash and interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions totaled $24.1 million at December 31, 2000, an increase of $7.1 million, or 42.0%, over December 31, 1999 levels. Investment securities totaled $17.0 million at December 31, 2000, a decrease of $156,000, or .9%, from the total at December 31, 1999. During 2000, investment securities totaling $857,000 were purchased, while maturities amounted to $1.0 million. Mortgage-backed securities totaled $15.1 million at December 31, 2000, an increase of $2.7 million, or 21.8%, over December 31, 1999, due primarily to the $5.2 million of mortgage-backed securities acquired through the Acquisition and purchases of $5.1 million, which were partially offset by principal repayments totaling $2.6 million and sales of $5.0 million during the year. Loans receivable and loans held for sale totaled $930.7 million at December 31, 2000, an increase of $204.4 million, or 28.2%, over the total at December 31, 1999. The increase resulted primarily from loans acquired through the Acquisition totaling $142.0 million and loan disbursements, including loan purchases and loans originated for sale, totaling $362.0 million, which were partially offset by principal repayments of $176.1 million and loan sales of $119.5 million. Loan origination volume, including the purchases of loans, during 2000 was less than the record 1999 volume by $87.6 million, or 19.5%, while the volume of loan sales increased by $22.6 million year to year. The decrease in loan volume was primarily attributable to a decrease in refinancing activity due to the increase in interest rates during the year. The consolidated allowance for loan losses totaled $2.9 million and $1.9 million at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, representing 61.5% and 46.9% of nonperforming loans at those dates. The allowance for loan losses was increased as a result of the Acquisition by $641,000, which represented the allowance maintained by Westwood Homestead prior to the Acquisition. Nonperforming loans (90 days or more delinquent plus nonaccrual loans), totaled $4.7 million and $4.0 million at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, constituting .51% and .55% of total net loans, including loans held for sale at those dates. Although management believes that its allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2000, is adequate based upon the available facts and circumstances, there can be no assurance that additions to such allowance will not be necessary in future periods, which could adversely affect Camco's results of operations. Deposits totaled $632.3 million at December 31, 2000, an increase of $170.5 million, or 36.9%, over December 31, 1999 levels. The increase resulted primarily from deposits of $100.5 million acquired in the Acquisition coupled with deposit portfolio growth of $70.0 million, or 15.2%, which resulted primarily from management's continuing efforts to increase deposits through marketing and pricing strategies. Advances from the FHLB increased by $34.3 million, or 12.3%, to a total of $313.5 million at December 31, 2000. The increase was due primarily to advances of $35.2 million acquired through the Acquisition. The proceeds from deposit growth and FHLB advances were primarily used to fund new loan originations and purchase investments and mortgage-backed securities during 2000. Stockholders' equity totaled $78.8 million at December 31, 2000, an increase of $16.1 million, or 25.8%, over December 31, 1999. The increase was due primarily to the purchase of Westwood Homestead, which resulted in an $11.7 million increase, coupled with net earnings of $7.7 million, which were partially offset by dividends declared of $3.3 million. -40- The Banks are required to maintain minimum regulatory capital pursuant to federal regulations. At December 31, 2000, each of the Banks' regulatory capital exceeded all regulatory capital requirements. Comparison of Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 General. Increases in the level of income and expenses during the year ended December 31, 2000, compared to 1999, are significantly influenced by the inclusion of the accounts of Westwood Homestead, which was acquired by Camco in January 2000 in a transaction accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the statement of earnings for the year ended December 31, 1999, was not restated for the Acquisition. Camco's net earnings for the year ended December 31, 2000, totaled $7.7 million, an increase of $1.7 million, or 28.8%, over the $5.9 million of net earnings reported in 1999. The increase in earnings was primarily attributable to a $4.9 million increase in net interest income and an increase in other income of $346,000, which were partially offset by a $321,000 increase in the provision for losses on loans, an increase in general, administrative and other expense of $2.4 million and a $772,000 increase in the provision for federal income taxes. Net Interest Income. Total interest income for the year ended December 31, 2000, amounted to $75.7 million, an increase of $24.6 million, or 48.1%, over 1999, generally reflecting the effects of the $272.0 million, or 39.4%, of growth in weighted-average interest-earning assets outstanding year to year, and the increase of 46 basis points in the average yield, from 7.40% in 1999 to 7.86% in 2000. The acquisition of Westwood Homestead accounted for approximately $12.3 million of interest income during the year ended December 31, 2000. Interest income on loans and mortgage-backed securities totaled $72.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, an increase of $24.0 million, or 49.3%, over the comparable 1999 period. The increase resulted primarily from a $270.2 million, or 41.6%, increase in the weighted-average balance outstanding year to year. Interest income on investments and interest-bearing deposits increased by $597,000, or 24.6%, due primarily to an increase in the weighted-average outstanding balances of $1.8 million, or 4.3%, and an increase in the average yield. Interest expense on deposits amounted to $28.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, an increase of $9.8 million, or 51.0%, over the 1999 total. The increase was due to an increase in the weighted-average balance of deposits outstanding of $137.5 million, or 30.4% year to year, and a 67 basis point increase in the average rate paid from 4.22% in 1999 to 4.89% in 2000. The acquisition of Westwood Homestead accounted for approximately $5.3 million of the overall increase in the 2000 period. Interest expense on borrowings totaled $20.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, an increase of $10.0 million, or 92.3%, over 1999. The increase resulted primarily from a $125.5 million increase in the weighted-average balance of borrowings outstanding year to year and an increase of 98 basis points in the weighted-average cost of borrowings. As a result of the foregoing changes in interest income and interest expense, net interest income increased by $4.9 million, or 23.0%, to a total of $26.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, compared to $21.2 million in 1999. The interest rate spread decreased to approximately 2.45% for the year ended December 31, 2000, from 2.82% for 1999, while the net interest margin decreased to approximately 2.71% in 2000, compared to 3.07% in 1999. -41- Provision for Losses on Loans. A provision for losses on loans is charged to earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered appropriate by management based on historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Banks, the status of past due principal and interest payments, general economic conditions, particularly as such conditions relate to the Banks' market areas, and other factors related to the collectibility of the Banks' loan portfolios. The provision for losses on loans totaled $568,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, an increase of $321,000, or 130.0%, over the provision recorded in 1999. The 2000 provision generally reflects the effects of loan portfolio growth, coupled with an increase of $751,000 in the level of nonperforming loans year to year. In the period subsequent to December 31, 2000, approximately $661,000 of the nonperforming loans have been paid off or paid to current status. Management believes all nonperforming loans are adequately collateralized and anticipates no loss on these loans. While management uses the most current information available in determining the provision for losses on loans, there can be no assurance that the loan loss allowance will be adequate to cover losses on nonperforming assets in the future. Other Income. Other income totaled $5.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, an increase of $346,000, or 6.7%, compared to 1999. The increase in other income was primarily attributable to a $297,000, or 16.9%, increase in gains on sale of loans and an increase of $159,000, or 27.7%, in service charges and other fees on deposits, which were partially offset by $41,000, or 5.8%, decrease in loan servicing fees and an $87,000, or 4.1%, decrease in late charges, rent and other. The increase in gains on sale of loans primarily reflects an increase in sales volume year to year. General, Administrative and Other Expense. General, administrative and other expense totaled $19.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, an increase of $2.4 million, or 14.1%, compared to 1999. The acquisition of Westwood Homestead accounted for $2.7 million of the increase in general, administrative and other expenses. Exclusive of the effects of the Acquisition, office occupancy and equipment expense increased by $172,000, or 7.0%, which was due to increased depreciation and increased building maintenance costs, and data processing expense increased by $354,000, or 42.4%, due to costs related to a conversion to an internal wide area network. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in employee compensation and benefits of $323,000, or 4.1%, resulting primarily from a decline in staffing levels, and a decrease of $166,000, or 63.1%, in federal deposit insurance premiums, due to a decrease in FDIC premium rates. Other operating expenses increased primarily as a result of the Corporation's overall growth year to year. Federal Income Taxes. The provision for federal income taxes totaled $3.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, an increase of $772,000 or 25.1%, compared to the provision recorded in 1999. This increase was primarily attributable to a $2.5 million, or 27.6%, increase in pre-tax earnings year-to-year. The effective tax rate amounted to 33.5% and 34.1% for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Comparison of Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 General. Camco's net earnings for the year ended December 31, 1999, totaled $5.9 million, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 15.2%, from the $7.0 million of net earnings reported in 1998. While net interest income increased by $1.8 million, the overall decrease in earnings was primarily attributable to a decrease in other income of $2.4 million and an increase in general, administrative and other expense of $794,000, which were partially offset by a decrease in the provision for federal income taxes of $334,000 and a decrease in the provision for losses on loans of $3,000. Net Interest Income. Total interest income for the year ended December 31, 1999, amounted to $51.1 million, an increase of $6.8 million, or 15.4%, over -42- 1998, generally reflecting the effects of the $132.7 million, or 23.8%, of growth in weighted-average interest-earning assets outstanding year to year, partially offset by a decrease of 53 basis points in the average yield, from 7.93% in 1998 to 7.40% in 1999. Interest income on loans and mortgage-backed securities totaled $48.7 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of $7.4 million, or 18.0%, over the comparable 1998 period. The increase resulted primarily from a $139.0 million, or 27.3%, increase in the weighted-average balance outstanding year to year. Interest income on investments and interest-bearing deposits decreased by $596,000, or 19.7%, due to a decrease in the weighted-average outstanding balances of $6.3 million, or 13.1%. Interest expense on deposits decreased by $419,000, or 2.1%, to a total of $19.1 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, due primarily to a decline in the average cost of deposits of 33 basis points to 4.22%, which was partially offset by an increase in the weighted-average balance of deposits outstanding of $24.0 million, or 5.6%. Interest expense on borrowings totaled $10.8 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of $5.5 million, or 103.0%, over 1998. The increase resulted primarily from a $105.0 million increase in the weighted-average balance of borrowings outstanding year to year. As a result of the foregoing changes in interest income and interest expense, net interest income increased by $1.8 million, or 9.0%, to a total of $21.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, compared to 1998. The interest rate spread decreased to approximately 2.82% for the year ended December 31, 1999, from 3.19% for 1998, while the net interest margin decreased to approximately 3.07% in 1999, compared to 3.48% in 1998. Provision for Losses on Loans. Based on an analysis of historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Banks, the status of past due principal and interest payments, general economic conditions, particularly as such conditions relate to the Banks' market areas, and other factors related to the collectibility of the Banks' loan portfolios, management recorded a provision for losses on loans totaling $247,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999, a decrease of $3,000, or 1.2%, from the provision recorded in 1998. The 1999 provision generally reflected the effects of loan portfolio growth coupled with a decrease of $321,000 in the level of nonperforming loans year to year. Other Income. Other income totaled $5.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, a decrease of $2.4 million, or 31.3%, compared to 1998. The decrease in other income was primarily attributable to a $2.2 million, or 55.5%, decrease in gains on sale of loans and a decrease of $410,000, or 16.1%, in late charges, rent and other, which were partially offset by a $358,000, or 102.9%, increase in loan servicing fees. The decrease in gains on sale of loans primarily reflects a decrease in sales volume year to year. The decrease in late charges, rent and other was primarily attributable to a $171,000 decrease in title service fees at the Corporation's title agency subsidiary, as a result of the decrease in loan origination volume, and a $99,000 gain on settlement of life insurance policies recognized in 1998. General, Administrative and Other Expense. General, administrative and other expense totaled $17.1 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of $794,000, or 4.9%, compared to 1998. The increase was due primarily to a $628,000, or 8.6%, increase in employee compensation and benefits, a $426,000 or 20.9%, increase in occupancy and equipment, a $180,000, or 27.1%, increase in franchise taxes, a $25,000 or 4.0%, increase in advertising and a $227,000, or 6.0%, increase in other operating costs, which were partially offset by a $664,000, or 44.3%, decrease in data processing expense. The increase in employee compensation and benefits resulted primarily from an increase in staffing levels and normal merit increases year to year. The -43- increase in occupancy and equipment was primarily attributable to an increase in both depreciation expense on office equipment and building maintenance costs. The increase in other operating expenses included an increase of $72,000 in other loan expense, reflecting overall loan growth, and an increase of $82,000 in ATM processing fees, which were incurred to convert all of Camco's ATM's to a common processor, allowing for potential lower future processing fees due to larger volumes of transactions being processed. The decrease in data processing costs was due primarily to the one-time prior year expenditures incurred to modernize the Corporation's data processing systems and to address the Year 2000 issue. Advertising, franchise taxes and other operating expenses increased primarily as a result of the Corporation's overall growth year to year. Federal Income Taxes. The provision for federal income taxes totaled $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, a decrease of $334,000 or 9.8%, compared to the provision recorded in 1998. This decrease was primarily attributable to a $1.4 million, or 13.4%, decrease in pre-tax earnings year to year. The effective tax rates amounted to 34.1% and 32.7% for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Corporation's change in effective tax rate year to year was primarily attributable to the Corporation's receipt of nontaxable life insurance proceeds in 1998. Effect of Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which requires entities to recognize all derivatives in their financial statements as either assets or liabilities measured at fair value. SFAS No. 133 also specifies new methods of accounting for hedging transactions, prescribes the items and transactions that may be hedged, and specifies detailed criteria to be met to qualify for hedge accounting. The definition of a derivative financial instrument is complex, but in general, it is an instrument with one or more underlyings, such as an interest rate or foreign exchange rate, that is applied to a notional amount, such as an amount of currency, to determine the settlement amount(s). It generally requires no significant initial investment and can be settled net or by delivery of an asset that is readily convertible to cash. SFAS No. 133 applies to derivatives embedded in other contracts, unless the underlying of the embedded derivative is clearly and closely related to the host contract. SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137, is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. On adoption, entities are permitted to transfer held-to-maturity debt securities to the available-for-sale or trading category without calling into question their intent to hold other debt securities to maturity in the future. Camco adopted SFAS No. 133 effective January 1, 2001, as required, without material effect on Camco's financial position or results of operations. In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," which revises the standards for accounting for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral and requires certain disclosures, but carries over most of the provisions of SFAS No. 125 without reconsideration. SFAS No. 140 is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001, and is effective for recognition and reclassification of collateral and for disclosures relating to securitization transactions and collateral for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000. SFAS No. 140 is not expected to have a material effect on Camco's financial position or results of operations. The foregoing discussion of the effects of recent accounting pronouncements contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Changes in economic circumstances or interest rates could cause the effects of the accounting pronouncements to differ from management's foregoing assessment. -44- Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. Net interest income, the difference between asset yields and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, is the principal component of Camco's net earnings. The ability to maximize net interest income is largely dependent upon the achievement of a positive interest rate spread that can be sustained during fluctuations in prevailing interest rate levels. Interest rate sensitivity is a measure of the difference between amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities which either reprice or mature within a given period of time. The difference, or the interest rate repricing "gap", provides an indication of the extent to which a financial institution's interest rate spread will be affected by changes in interest rates. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities and is considered negative when the amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets repricing during a specified interval. Generally, during a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap within shorter maturities would adversely affect net interest income, while a positive gap within shorter maturities would result in an increase in net interest income. Conversely, during a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap within shorter maturities would result in an increase in net interest income, while a positive gap within shorter maturities would have the opposite effect. In recognition of the foregoing factors, the Board of Directors of each of the Banks has implemented an asset and liability management strategy directed toward improving each Bank's interest rate sensitivity. The principal common elements of such strategies include (1) meeting the consumer preference for fixed-rate loans over the past several years by selling such loans in the secondary market, (2) originating adjustable-rate mortgage loans ("ARMs") as demand increases coincident with the overall rise in interest rates in the economy, (3) maintaining higher levels of liquid assets, such as cash, short-term interest bearing deposits and short-term investment securities as a hedge against rising interest rates in a lower interest rate environment, and (4) utilizing FHLB advances and longer term certificates of deposit as funding sources when available. The following table contains information regarding the amounts of various categories of assets and liabilities repricing within the periods indicated:

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these statements. -53- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The business activities of Camco Financial Corporation ("Camco" or the "Corporation") have been limited primarily to holding the common shares of its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Cambridge Savings Bank ("Cambridge Savings"), Marietta Savings Bank ("Marietta Savings"), First Federal Savings Bank of Washington Court House ("First Federal"), First Federal Bank for Savings ("First Savings") and Westwood Homestead Savings Bank ("Westwood Homestead") (collectively hereinafter the "Banks") and Camco Title Insurance Agency ("Camco Title") and two second tier subsidiaries, Camco Mortgage Corporation and WestMar Mortgage Company. Accordingly, the Corporation's results of operations are economically dependent upon the results of the Banks' operations. The Banks conduct a general banking business within Ohio, northern West Virginia and northeastern Kentucky which consists of attracting deposits from the general public and applying those funds to the origination of loans for residential, consumer and nonresidential purposes. The Banks' profitability is significantly dependent on net interest income, which is the difference between interest income generated from interest-earning assets (i.e. loans and investments) and the interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities (i.e. customer deposits and borrowed funds). Net interest income is affected by the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest received or paid on these balances. The level of interest rates paid or received by the Banks can be significantly influenced by a number of factors, such as governmental monetary policy, that are outside of management's control. The consolidated financial information presented herein has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and general accounting practices within the financial services industry. In preparing financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from such estimates. During 1999, the Board of Directors of Camco approved a business combination, which was approved by regulatory authorities in 1999, and was completed in January 2000, whereby Westwood Homestead Financial Corporation ("WHFC"), the parent of Westwood Homestead, was acquired and dissolved upon consummation, and Westwood Homestead became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. The business combination was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements herein include the accounts of Westwood Homestead from the January 6, 2000 acquisition date through December 31, 2000. -54- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) The following is a summary of the Corporation's significant accounting policies which have been consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. 1. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly-owned and second tier subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. 2. Interest Rate Risk The earnings of the Corporation are primarily dependent upon net interest income, which is determined by 1) the difference between yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities (interest rate spread) and 2) the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities outstanding. The Corporation's interest rate spread is affected by regulatory, economic and competitive factors that influence interest rates, loan demand and deposit flows. The Corporation is vulnerable to an increase in interest rates to the extent that interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice more rapidly than interest-earning assets. At December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Corporation had net interest-earning assets of approximately $993.0 million, $776.3 million and $605.4 million, with weighted-average effective yields of 7.92%, 7.39% and 7.63%, respectively, and net interest-bearing liabilities of approximately $945.8 million, $740.9 million and $568.7 million, with weighted-average effective interest rates of 5.53%, 4.81% and 4.69%, respectively. To minimize the effect of adverse changes in interest rates on its results of operations, the Corporation has implemented an asset and liability management plan that emphasizes increasing the interest rate sensitivity and shortening the maturities of its interest-earning assets and extending the maturities of its interest-bearing liabilities. Although the Corporation has undertaken a variety of strategies to minimize its exposure to interest rate risk, its primary emphasis has been on the origination and purchase of adjustable rate loans. 3. Investment Securities and Mortgage-Backed Securities The Corporation accounts for investment and mortgage-backed securities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." SFAS No. 115 requires that investments be categorized as held-to-maturity, trading, or available for sale. Securities classified as held-to-maturity are carried at cost only if the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity. Trading securities and securities available for sale are carried at fair value with resulting unrealized gains or losses recorded to operations or stockholders' equity, respectively. Investment and mortgage-backed securities are classified as held-to-maturity or available for sale upon acquisition. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Corporation's stockholders' equity reflected a net unrealized gain of $4,000 and a net unrealized loss of $124,000, respectively. Realized gains and losses on sales of securities are recognized using the specific identification method. -55- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 4. Loans Receivable Loans held in portfolio are stated at the principal amount outstanding, adjusted for unamortized yield adjustments, including deferred loan origination fees and costs, capitalized mortgage servicing rights and the allowance for loan losses. The yield adjustments are amortized and accreted to operations using the interest method over the average life of the underlying loans. Interest is accrued as earned unless the collectibility of the loan is in doubt. Uncollectible interest on loans that are contractually past due is charged off, or an allowance is established based on management's periodic evaluation. The allowance is established by a charge to interest income equal to all interest previously accrued, and income is subsequently recognized only to the extent that cash payments are received until, in management's judgment, the borrower's ability to make periodic interest and principal payments has returned to normal, in which case the loan is returned to accrual status. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost (less principal payments received) or fair value (market value), calculated on an aggregate basis. At December 31, 2000, loans held for sale were carried at cost. At December 31, 1999, the Corporation recorded a $34,000 charge to earnings related to a market value decline on loans held for sale. The Corporation accounts for mortgage servicing rights in accordance with SFAS No. 125 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," which requires that the Corporation recognize, as separate assets, rights to service mortgage loans for others, regardless of how those servicing rights are acquired. An institution that acquires mortgage servicing rights through either the purchase or origination of mortgage loans and sells those loans with servicing rights retained must allocate some of the cost of the loans to the mortgage servicing rights. SFAS No. 125 requires that capitalized mortgage servicing rights and capitalized excess servicing receivables be assessed for impairment. Impairment is measured based on fair value. The mortgage servicing rights recorded by the Banks, calculated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 125, were segregated into pools for valuation purposes, using as pooling criteria the loan term and coupon rate. Once pooled, each grouping of loans was evaluated on a discounted earnings basis to determine the present value of future earnings that a purchaser could expect to realize from each portfolio. Earnings were projected from a variety of sources including loan servicing fees, interest earned on float, net interest earned on escrows, miscellaneous income, and costs to service the loans. The present value of future earnings is the "economic" value for the pool, i.e., the net realizable present value to an acquirer of the acquired servicing. -56- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 4. Loans Receivable (continued) The Corporation recorded amortization related to mortgage servicing rights totaling approximately $602,000, $516,000 and $704,000, for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the carrying value and the fair value of the Corporation's mortgage servicing rights totaled approximately $5.2 million and $4.5 million, respectively. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Banks were servicing mortgage loans of approximately $475.6 million and $421.3 million, respectively, that have been sold to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation and other investors. 5. Loan Origination and Commitment Fees The Corporation accounts for loan origination fees and costs in accordance with SFAS No. 91, "Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases." Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 91, all loan origination fees received, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred on a loan-by-loan basis and amortized to interest income using the interest method, giving effect to actual loan prepayments. Additionally, SFAS No. 91 generally limits the definition of loan origination costs to the direct costs attributable to originating a loan, i.e., principally actual personnel costs. Fees received for loan commitments are deferred and amortized over the life of the related loan using the interest method. 6. Allowance for Loan Losses It is the Corporation's policy to provide valuation allowances for estimated losses on loans based upon past loss experience, current trends in the level of delinquent and problem loans, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current and anticipated economic conditions in the Banks' primary market areas. When the collection of a loan becomes doubtful, or otherwise troubled, the Corporation records a charge-off equal to the difference between the fair value of the property securing the loan and the loan's carrying value. Such provision is based on management's estimate of the fair value of the underlying collateral, taking into consideration the current and currently anticipated future operating or sales conditions. As a result, such estimates are particularly susceptible to changes that could result in a material adjustment to results of operations in the near term. Recovery of the carrying value of such loans is dependent to a great extent on economic, operating, and other conditions that may be beyond the Corporation's control. -57- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 6. Allowance for Loan Losses (continued) The Corporation accounts for impaired loans in accordance with SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan." SFAS No. 114 requires that impaired loans be measured based upon the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, as an alternative, at the loan's observable market price or fair value of the collateral. A loan is defined under SFAS No. 114 as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. In applying the provisions of SFAS No. 114, the Corporation considers its investment in one- to four-family residential loans and consumer installment loans to be homogeneous and therefore excluded from separate identification for evaluation of impairment. With respect to the Corporation's investment in multi-family and nonresidential loans, and its evaluation of any impairment thereon, such loans are generally collateral-dependent and as a result are carried as a practical expedient at the lower of cost or fair value. It is the Corporation's policy to charge off unsecured credits that are more than ninety days delinquent. Similarly, collateral-dependent loans which are more than ninety days delinquent are considered to constitute more than a minimum delay in repayment and are evaluated for impairment under SFAS No. 114 at that time. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Corporation had no loans that would be defined as impaired under SFAS No. 114. 7. Real Estate Acquired Through Foreclosure Real estate acquired through foreclosure is carried at the lower of the loan's unpaid principal balance (cost) or fair value less estimated selling expenses at the date of acquisition. Real estate loss provisions are recorded if the fair value of the property subsequently declines below the amount determined at the recording date. In determining the lower of cost or fair value at acquisition, costs relating to development and improvement of property are capitalized. Costs relating to holding real estate acquired through foreclosure, net of rental income, are charged against earnings as incurred. 8. Office Premises and Equipment Office premises and equipment are carried at cost and include expenditures which extend the useful lives of existing assets. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. For financial reporting, depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets, estimated to be ten to fifty years for buildings and improvements and three to twenty-five years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. An accelerated depreciation method is used for tax reporting purposes. -58- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 9. Goodwill Goodwill resulting from the acquisition of First Savings totaled approximately $3.7 million, and is being amortized over a twenty-five year period using the straight-line method. Management periodically evaluates the carrying value of intangible assets in relation to the continuing earnings capacity of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. 10. Federal Income Taxes The Corporation accounts for federal income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." In accordance with SFAS No. 109, a deferred tax liability or deferred tax asset is computed by applying the current statutory tax rates to net taxable or deductible temporary differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future periods. Deferred tax assets are recorded only to the extent that the amount of net deductible temporary differences or carryforward attributes may be utilized against current period earnings, carried back against prior years' earnings, offset against taxable temporary differences reversing in future periods, or utilized to the extent of management's estimate of future taxable income. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets to the extent that the value of net deductible temporary differences and carryforward attributes exceeds management's estimates of taxes payable on future taxable income. Deferred tax liabilities are provided on the total amount of net temporary differences taxable in the future. Deferral of income taxes results primarily from different methods of accounting for deferred loan origination fees and costs, mortgage servicing rights, Federal Home Loan Bank stock dividends, the general loan loss allowance and the percentage of earnings bad debt deductions. A temporary difference is also recognized for depreciation expense computed using accelerated methods for federal income tax purposes. 11. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is calculated based on 6,915,154, 5,730,829 and 5,751,918 weighted-average common shares outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. -59- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 11. Earnings Per Share (continued) Diluted earnings per share is computed taking into consideration common shares outstanding and dilutive potential common shares to be issued under the Corporation's stock option plan. Weighted-average common shares deemed outstanding for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share totaled 6,957,431, 5,834,391 and 5,903,073 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. There were 42,277, 103,562 and 151,155 incremental shares related to the assumed exercise of stock options included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Options to purchase 435,295 and 65,416 shares of common stock at weighted-average exercise prices of $12.15 and $14.94 were outstanding at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for those years because the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares. 12. Fair Value of Financial Instruments SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the consolidated statement of financial condition, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. SFAS No. 107 excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Corporation. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amount reported in the consolidated statements of financial condition for cash and cash equivalents is deemed to approximate fair value. Investment Securities and Mortgage-backed Securities: Fair values for investment securities and mortgage-backed securities are based on quoted market prices and dealer quotes. -60- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 12. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued) Loans receivable: The loan portfolio has been segregated into categories with similar characteristics, such as one- to four-family residential real estate, multi-family residential real estate, installment and other. These loan categories were further delineated into fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loans. The fair values for the resultant loan categories were computed via discounted cash flow analysis, using current interest rates offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Federal Home Loan Bank stock: The carrying amount presented in the consolidated statements of financial condition is deemed to approximate fair value. Deposits: The fair values of deposits with no stated maturity, such as money market demand deposits, savings and NOW accounts, are deemed to equal the amount payable on demand as of December 31, 2000 and 1999. The fair value of fixed-rate certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank: The fair value of these advances is estimated using the rates currently offered for similar advances of similar remaining maturities or, when available, quoted market prices. Advances by Borrowers for Taxes and Insurance: The carrying amount of advances by borrowers for taxes and insurance is deemed to approximate fair value. Commitments to extend credit: For fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loan commitments, the fair value estimate considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and committed rates. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the difference between the fair value and notional amount of loan commitments was not material. -61- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 12.

As depicted above, the Corporation's lending efforts have historically focused on loans secured by existing residential properties, which comprise approximately $760.6 million, or 82%, of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2000 and approximately $616.4 million, or 85%, of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 1999. Generally, such loans have been underwritten on the basis of no more than an 80% loan-to-value ratio, which has historically provided the Corporation with adequate collateral coverage in the event of default. Nevertheless, the Corporation, as with any lending institution, is subject to the risk that residential real estate values could deteriorate in its primary lending areas within Ohio, northern West Virginia, and northeastern Kentucky, thereby impairing collateral values. However, management believes that residential real estate values in the Corporation's primary lending areas are presently stable. The Banks, in the ordinary course of business, have granted loans to certain of their directors, executive officers, and their associates. Such loans are made on the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated persons and do not involve more than normal risk of collectibility. The aggregate dollar amount of these loans totaled approximately $3.3 million and $2.8 million at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. -66- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE D - ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES Activity in the allowance for loan losses is summarized as follows for the years ended December 31:

For years prior to 1996, the Banks were allowed a special bad debt deduction generally limited to 8% of otherwise taxable income, subject to certain limitations based on aggregate loans and savings account balances at the end of the year. If the amounts that qualified as deductions for federal income taxes are later used for purposes other than for bad debt losses, including distributions in liquidation, such distributions will be subject to federal income taxes at the then current corporate income tax rate. The percentage of earnings bad debt deduction had accumulated to approximately $10.0 million as of December 31, 2000. The amount of the unrecognized deferred tax liability relating to the cumulative bad debt deduction was approximately $3.1 million at December 31, 2000. The Banks are required to recapture as taxable income approximately $1.9 million of the bad debt reserves, which represents post-1987 additions to the reserve, and are unable to utilize the percentage of earnings method to compute the reserve in the future. The Banks have provided deferred taxes for this amount and are amortizing the recapture of the bad debt reserve into taxable income over a six year period which commenced in 1998. -70- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE I - COMMITMENTS The Banks are parties to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of their customers, including commitments to extend credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statement of financial condition. The contract or notional amounts of the commitments reflect the extent of the Banks' involvement in such financial instruments. The Banks' exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Banks use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as those utilized for on-balance-sheet instruments. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Banks had outstanding commitments to originate and purchase fixed-rate loans of approximately $1.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively, and adjustable-rate loans of approximately $2.2 million and $10.0 million, respectively. Additionally, the Banks had unused lines of credit under home equity and other loans of $36.7 million at December 31, 2000. Management believes that all loan commitments are able to be funded through cash flow from operations and existing liquidity. Fees received in connection with these commitments have not been recognized in earnings. At December 31, 2000, the Corporation had a commitment to sell loans to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") totaling $30.0 million which expires in November 2001. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Banks evaluate each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral on loans may vary but the preponderance of loans granted generally include a mortgage interest in real estate as security. The Corporation has entered into lease agreements for office premises and equipment under operating leases which expire at various dates through 2010. The following table summarizes minimum payments due under lease agreements by year: Year ending December 31, (Dollars in thousands) 2001 $136 2002 104 2003 93 2004 62 2005 and thereafter 217 --- $612 === -71- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE I - COMMITMENTS (continued) Total rental expense under operating leases was approximately $260,000, $278,000 and $211,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. NOTE J - REGULATORY CAPITAL Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Homestead are subject to the regulatory capital requirements of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"). First Federal and First Savings are subject to regulatory capital standards promulgated by the Office of Thrift Supervision (the "OTS"). Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory -- and possibly additional discretionary -- actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on each of the Banks' financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Banks must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Banks' assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Banks' capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. During the calendar year, each of the Banks were notified from their respective regulators that the Banks were categorized as "well-capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as "well-capitalized" the Banks' must maintain minimum capital ratios as set forth in the tables that follow. The FDIC has adopted risk-based capital ratio guidelines to which Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Homestead are subject. The guidelines establish a systematic analytical framework that makes regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banking organizations. Risk-based capital ratios are determined by allocating assets and specified off-balance sheet commitments to four risk-weighting categories, with higher levels of capital being required for the categories perceived as representing greater risk. These guidelines divide the capital into two tiers. The first tier ("Tier 1") includes common equity, certain non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock (excluding auction rate issues) and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill and certain other intangible assets (except mortgage servicing rights and purchased credit card relationships, subject to certain limitations). Supplementary ("Tier II") capital includes, among other items, cumulative perpetual and long-term limited-life preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities, certain hybrid capital instruments, term subordinated debt and the allowance for loan losses, subject to certain limitations, less required deductions. Savings banks are required to maintain a total risk-based capital ratio of 8%, of which 4% must be Tier 1 capital. The FDIC may, however, set higher capital requirements when particular circumstances warrant. Savings banks experiencing or anticipating significant growth are expected to maintain capital ratios, including tangible capital positions, well above the minimum levels. -72- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE J - REGULATORY CAPITAL (continued) As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, management believes that Cambridge Savings, Marietta Savings and Westwood Homestead met all capital adequacy requirements to which the Banks were subject.

-74- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE J - REGULATORY CAPITAL (continued) The minimum capital standards of the OTS generally require the maintenance of regulatory capital sufficient to meet each of three tests, hereinafter described as the tangible capital requirement, the core capital requirement and the risk-based capital requirement. The tangible capital requirement provides for minimum tangible capital (defined as stockholders' equity less all intangible assets) equal to 1.5% of adjusted total assets. The core capital requirement provides for minimum core capital (tangible capital plus certain forms of supervisory goodwill and other qualifying intangible assets) generally equal to 4.0% of adjusted total assets, except for those associations with the highest examination rating and acceptable levels of risk. The risk-based capital requirement generally provides for the maintenance of core capital plus general loan loss allowances equal to 8.0% of risk-weighted assets. In computing risk-weighted assets, the Banks' multiply the value of each asset on their respective statement of financial condition by a defined risk-weighting factor, e.g., one- to four-family residential loans carry a risk-weighted factor of 50%. As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, management believes that First Federal and First Savings met all capital adequacy requirements to which the Banks were subject.

The Corporation's management believes that, under the current regulatory capital regulations, the Banks will continue to meet their minimum capital requirements in the foreseeable future. However, events beyond the control of the Corporation, such as increased interest rates or a downturn in the economy in the Banks' market areas, could adversely affect future earnings and, consequently, the ability to meet future minimum regulatory capital requirements. First Federal and First Savings are subject to regulations imposed by the OTS regarding the amount of capital distributions payable to the Corporation. Generally, First Federal and First Savings' payment of dividends is limited, without prior OTS approval, to net earnings for the current calendar year plus the two preceding years, less capital distributions paid over the comparable time period. Insured institutions are required to file an application with the OTS for capital distributions in excess of this limitation. -76- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE K - BENEFIT PLANS The Corporation has a non-contributory retirement plan which provides benefits to certain key officers. The Corporation's obligations under the plan have been provided for via the purchase of single premium key man life insurance of which the Corporation is the beneficiary. The Corporation recorded expense related to the plan totaling approximately $51,000, $45,000 and $42,000 during the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Corporation also has a 401(k) Salary Savings Plan covering substantially all employees. Total expense under this plan was $334,000, $181,000 and $783,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. NOTE L - STOCK OPTION PLANS Stockholders of the Corporation have approved three stock option plans. Under the 1972 Plan, 254,230 common shares were reserved for issuance to officers, directors, and key employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. The 1982 Plan reserved 115,824 common shares for issuance to employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. All of the stock options under the 1972 and 1982 Plans have been granted and are subject to exercise at the discretion of the grantees through 2002. Under the 1995 Plan, 161,488 shares were reserved for issuance. Additionally, in connection with the acquisition of First Savings, the stock options of First Savings were converted into options to purchase 174,421 shares of the Corporation's stock at an exercise price of $7.38 per share. The foregoing number of shares under option reflect the three-for-two stock split effected during 1998 and the 5% stock dividend effected during 1999. Additionally, in connection with the acquisition of WHFC, the stock options of WHFC were converted into options to purchase 309,272 shares of the Corporation's stock at a weighted-average exercise price of $11.89 per share which expire in 2008. The Corporation accounts for its stock option plans in accordance with SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which contains a fair-value based method for valuing stock-based compensation that entities may use, which measures compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. Compensation is then recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 permits entities to continue to account for stock options and similar equity instruments under Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Entities that continue to account for stock options using APB Opinion No. 25 are required to make pro forma disclosures of net earnings and earnings per share, as if the fair-value based method of accounting defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. -77- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE L - STOCK OPTION PLANS (continued) The Corporation utilizes APB Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for the plans. Had compensation cost for the Corporation's stock option plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under the plans consistent with the accounting method utilized in SFAS No. 123, the Corporation's net earnings and earnings per share would have been reported as the pro forma amounts indicated below:

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the modified Black-Scholes options-pricing model with the following assumptions used for grants during 2000 and 1998: dividend yield of 2.51% and 2.04%, respectively; expected volatility of 10.0% for each year; a risk-free interest rate of 5.0% and 5.5%, respectively, and an expected life of ten years and seven years, respectively. -78- Camco Financial Corporation NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE L - STOCK OPTION PLANS (continued) A summary of the status of the Corporation's stock option plans as of December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, and changes during the years ending on those dates is presented below:

WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, the Employee has assumed the responsibilities of President and Chief Executive Officer of Camco effective January 1, 2001; and WHEREAS, as a result of the skill, knowledge, experience and performance of the Employee, Camco desires to continue to retain the services of the Employee as President and Chief Executive Officer in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Camco and the Employee agree as follows: 1. Employment and Term. The Employee is employed as the President and Chief Executive Officer of Camco, and the Employee hereby accepts employment as the President and Chief Executive Officer of Camco, upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The term of employment shall be for the period commencing on January 1, 2001, and shall end on December 31, 2003 (the "Term"). At the end of each year of the Term, the Agreement may be extended for periods of one year each by Camco's Board of Directors ("Board") at its sole and exclusive discretion, subject to the Employee's acceptance thereof. Prior to consenting to any such extension, the Board will conduct a performance evaluation of the Employee, and the results of such review shall be noted in the minutes of the meeting of the Board.

(b) Devotion of Time to Camco's Business. The Employee shall devote his entire productive time, ability and attention during normal business hours throughout the Employment Term to the faithful performance of his duties under this Agreement subject to the direction of the Board.

Compensation, Benefits and Reimbursements. (a) Salary. The Employee shall receive an annual salary payable in equal installments not less often than monthly. The amount of the annual salary shall be $160,000 until changed by the Board. Each year throughout the Employment Term, the amount of the Employee's annual salary shall be reviewed by the Board, and shall be set at an amount not less than $160,000, based upon the Employee's responsibilities and individual performance and the overall profitability and financial condition of Camco (the "Annual Review").

Any directors' fees received by Employee, whether paid by Camco or any other entity, shall be in addition to the salary provided for in this Agreement and may be retained by Employee in their entirety. (b) Expenses. In addition to any compensation received under Section 3(a), Camco shall pay or reimburse the Employee for all reasonable travel, entertainment and miscellaneous expenses incurred in connection with the performance of his duties under this Agreement including participation in industry-related activities. Such reimbursement shall be made in accordance with the existing policies and procedures of Camco pertaining to reimbursement of expenses to senior management officials. (c) Employee Benefit Program.

Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Camco may discontinue at any time any such Benefit Plans now existing or hereafter adopted, to the extent permitted by the terms of such plans, and shall not be required to compensate the Employee for the elimination of any such Benefit Plans. -2- (d) Vacation and Sick Leave. The Employee shall be entitled, without loss of pay, to be absent voluntarily from the performance of his duties under this Agreement, subject to the following conditions: (i) The Employee shall be entitled to an annual vacation, the duration of which shall not be less than four weeks each calendar year; (ii) Vacation time shall be scheduled by the Employee in a reasonable manner and shall be subject to approval by the Board.

In addition to Camco's right to terminate the employment of the Employee at the end of the Employment Term, Camco may terminate the employment of the Employee at any other time during the Employment Term. In the event that Camco terminates the employment of the Employee during the Employment Term because of the Employee's personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, intentional failure or refusal to perform the duties and responsibilities assigned in this Agreement, willful violation of any law, rule, regulation or final cease-and-desist order (other than traffic violations or similar offenses), conviction of a felony or for fraud or embezzlement, or material breach of any provision of this Agreement (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Just Cause"), the Employee shall have no right to receive any compensation or other benefits for any period after such termination. If Camco terminates the employment of the Employee during the Employment Term for any reason other than Just Cause, the Employee shall be entitled to the following: (a) Termination After Change of Control. If, in connection with or within one year of a Change of Control (hereinafter defined) of Camco, Camco terminates the employment of the Employee for any reason other than Just Cause, then the following shall occur: -3- (i) Camco shall promptly pay to the Employee or to his beneficiaries, dependents or estate an amount equal to three times the Employee's "average annual compensation" as such term is defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. (ii) Camco shall provide to the Employee and his eligible dependents health, life and disability insurance benefits substantially equal to those being provided to the Employee and his eligible dependents immediately prior to the occurrence of the Change of Control, at Camco's expense and as if the Employee were still employed under this Agreement for a period of 36 months. (iii) Camco shall promptly pay to the Employee an amount equal to all directors' fees to which the Employee would otherwise have been entitled if he had remained a director of Camco or any of its subsidiaries for a period of 36 months. The Employee shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement, whether in this paragraph or elsewhere in this Agreement, by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall any amounts received from other employment or otherwise by the Employee offset in any manner the obligations of Camco hereunder, except as specifically stated in subsection (ii) of this subsection (a). A "Change of Control" shall be deemed to have occurred in the event that, at any time during the Employment Term, (x) either any person or entity obtains "conclusive control" of Camco within the meaning of 12 C.F.R.ss.574.4(a) or (y) any person or entity obtains "rebuttable control" within the meaning of 12 C.F.R.ss.574.4(b) and has not rebutted control in accordance with 12 C.F.R.ss.574.4(e). (b) Termination without Change of Control. In the event Camco terminates the employment of the Employee for any reason other than Just Cause and the termination is not covered by the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section 4, Camco shall be obligated to continue to (i) pay on a monthly basis to the Employee, his designated beneficiaries or his estate, his annual salary provided pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement for the number of months remaining in the Employment Term as of the date of the termination; and (ii) provide to the Employee and his eligible dependents, at Camco's expense, health, life and disability insurance benefits substantially equal to those being provided to the Employee and his eligible dependents at the date of termination of his employment until the earliest of (A) the end of the Employment Term under this Agreement pursuant to Section 1 of this Agreement or (B) that date on which the Employee is included in another employer's benefit plans as a full-time employee. The Employee may choose, in lieu of monthly payments of the amounts set forth above, to receive a lump sum payment equal to the present value of such payments. For purposes of computing such lump-sum payment, the parties shall use a discount rate of five percent (5%) per annum. (c) Death of the Employee. The Employment Term automatically terminates upon the death of the Employee. In the event of such death, the Employee's estate shall be entitled to receive the compensation due the Employee through the last day of the calendar month in which the death occurred. -4- 5. Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Camco from voluntarily or involuntarily consolidating with, merging into, or transferring all, or substantially all, of its assets to another corporation that assumes all of Camco's obligations and undertakings hereunder. Upon such a consolidation, merger or transfer of assets, the term "Camco" as used in this Agreement, shall mean such other corporation or entity and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. 6. Confidential Information. The Employee acknowledges that during his employment he has learned, will learn and will have access to confidential information regarding Camco and its customers and business. The Employee agrees and covenants not to disclose or use for his own benefit or the benefit of any other person or entity any confidential information, unless or until Camco consents to such disclosure or use or such information becomes common knowledge in the industry or is otherwise legally in the public domain. The Employee shall not knowingly disclose or reveal to any unauthorized person any confidential information relating to Camco, its subsidiaries or affiliates, or to any of the businesses operated by them, and the Employee confirms that such information constitutes the exclusive property of Camco. The Employee shall not otherwise knowingly act or conduct himself (i) to the material detriment of Camco, its subsidiaries or affiliates or (ii) in a manner which is inimical or contrary to the interests of Camco. 7. Nonassignability. Neither this Agreement nor any right or interest hereunder shall be assignable by the Employee, his beneficiaries or legal representatives without Camco's prior written consent; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7 shall preclude (i) the Employee from designating a beneficiary to receive any benefits payable hereunder upon his death or (ii) the executors, administrators or other legal representatives of the Employee or his estate from assigning any rights hereunder to the person or persons entitled thereto. 8. No Attachment. Except as required by law, no right to receive payment under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge or hypothecation or to execution, attachment, levy or similar process of assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to effect any such action shall be null, void and of no effect. 9. Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Employee and Camco and their respective permitted successors and assigns. 10. Amendment of Agreement. This Agreement may not be modified or amended, except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. 11. Waiver. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be an estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged -5- with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver, unless specifically stated therein, and each waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than the act specifically waived. 12. Severability. If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect the other provisions of this Agreement not held so invalid, and each such other provision shall, to the full extent consistent with applicable law, continue in full force and effect. If this Agreement is held invalid or cannot be enforced, then any prior agreement between Camco (or any predecessor thereof) and the Employee shall be deemed reinstated to the full extent permitted by law, as if this Agreement had not been executed. 13. Headings. The headings of the paragraphs herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement. 14. Governing Law. This Agreement has been executed and delivered in the State of Ohio, and its validity, interpretation, performance and enforcement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, except to the extent that federal or Delaware law is governing. 15. Effect of Prior Agreements. This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior Employment Agreement between Camco, or any predecessor of Camco, and the Employee. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Camco has caused this Agreement to be executed by its duly authorized officers, and the Employee has signed this Agreement, all as of the day and year first above written.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2000 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held for investment purposes at end of year is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. /s/Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP Columbus, Ohio March 12, 2001 1.

CAMCO FINANCIAL & SUBSIDIARIES SALARY SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2000 and 1999 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN The following description of the Camco Financial & Subsidiaries Salary Savings Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions. General: The Plan is a defined-contribution plan covering all full-time employees of Camco Financial & Subsidiaries and related subsidiaries, collectively referred to as the "Company." The Plan requires one year of service (1,000 hours or more) to share in the matching contribution. Participants are immediately eligible to make deferrals to the Plan. It is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Contributions: Each year, participants may contribute up to 15% of their pretax annual compensation to the Plan. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans. The Company makes a matching contribution equal to 100% of 401(k) deferrals up to the first 3% of base compensation and 50% of 401(k) deferrals from 3.01% to 5% of base compensation. Contributions are subject to certain Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") limitations. Investment Options: The Plan allows participants to self-direct the investment of their plan assets, including employer discretionary and matching contributions among several different investment options offered by the Plan. Participants may change their investments quarterly. Participant Accounts: Each participant's account is credited with the participant's own contribution, and an allocation of (a) the Company's contributions and (b) investment income. Allocation of the Company's contributions and investment income is based upon participants' compensation and account balances, respectively. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's account. Retirement, Death, and Disability: A participant is entitled to 100% of his or her account balance upon retirement (at normal retirement age), death, or disability. Forfeited Accounts: Forfeitures of terminated participants' nonvested employer profit sharing accounts are reallocated to all eligible participants. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Continued) 4. CAMCO FINANCIAL & SUBSIDIARIES SALARY SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2000 and 1999 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (Continued) Vesting: Participants are immediately vested in their own 401(k) contributions, employer matching contributions made after December 31, 1997 and any Pension Plan rollovers, plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the remainder of their account is based on years of credited service. A participant is 100% vested after six years of credited service in accordance with the table below: Years of Service % Vested 1 0 2 20 3 40 4 60 5 80 6 100 Payment of Benefits: Upon termination of service, a participant may elect to receive payment of their vested benefits either as a lump-sum payment or as a series of installment payments. Loan Provisions: The Plan provides that participants can borrow funds against their vested account balance. These loans are limited to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the participant's vested account balance. The loan must be repaid within five years and bear interest at a reasonable rate. NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES The principles and policies that significantly affect the determination of net assets available for benefits and results of operations are summarized below. Accounting Method: The accounting principles and procedures followed by the Plan conform to generally accepted accounting principles. The financial statements were prepared using the accrual method of accounting. Income and Expense Recognition: Investment income includes dividends, interest, gains or losses realized on the sale of plan assets and unrealized gains and losses of assets held the entire plan year. Employer and employee contributions and expenses payable are recognized on the accrual method. Benefits to participants are recorded when paid. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Continued) 5. CAMCO FINANCIAL & SUBSIDIARIES SALARY SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2000 and 1999 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Valuation of Investments: Quoted market prices are used to value the Plan's investments in mutual funds and common stock. Participant loans are carried at their outstanding principal balance, which approximates fair value. The Plan's investment in the common/collective investment fund is valued based upon the Plan's proportional share of the common/collective fund's underlying assets. The underlying assets of the common/collective fund are valued at estimated fair market value. Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures and actual results could differ from those estimates. It is at least reasonably possible that a significant change may occur in the near term for the estimates of investment valuation. NOTE 3 - PLAN TERMINATION Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA and its related regulations. In the event of a plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Continued) 6.

The Plan has since been restated in its entirety using a non-standardized prototype plan document sponsored by Travelers Insurance Company since receiving the favorable determination letter. However, the plan administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC. NOTE 7 - MERGER Effective January 6, 2000, the Company merged with Westwood Homestead Financial Corporation and the Westwood Homestead Savings Bank (the "Bank"). Employees of the Bank were eligible to participant in the Plan as of April 14, 2000. NOTE 8 - PLAN RESTATEMENT Effective January 1, 2000, the Plan was restated in its entirety using a non-standardized prototype plan document sponsored by Travelers Insurance Company. This restatement changed the length of service required to be eligible to make employee deferrals to one year. The restatement also changed the Plan Trustee from Peoples Bank to Smith Barney Corporate Trust Company. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Continued) 8.
