ITEM 1.02.  TERMINATION OF A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

     On February 20, 2004,  WebBank,  a wholly owned  subsidiary of WebFinancial
Corporation  (the  "Company"),  gave  notice of  termination  of an Amended  and
Restated  Servicing  Agreement  dated as of February  21, 2002  effective  as of
January 10, 2002, as amended (the "Servicing  Agreement"),  with Rockland Credit
Finance LLC ("Rockland") pursuant to which Rockland provided accounts receivable
factoring  services to WebBank.  The notice of termination was given as a result
of discussions with federal and state regulators regarding WebBank's operations.
On March 1, 2004, Rockland  acknowledged  receipt of the termination notice and,
under the terms of the Servicing Agreement, gave notice to WebBank that it would
exercise its option to purchase the  existing  portfolio of accounts  receivable
from WebBank at book value on May 12, 2004. On May 6, 2004, WebBank and Rockland
agreed to extend the termination date of the Servicing Agreement to December 31,
2004 and to extend the option  period to purchase  the  portfolio  to a mutually
agreeable  date no earlier  than July 31,  2004 and no later than  December  31,
2004.  On December  30,  2004,  Rockland  exercised  its option to purchase  the
existing portfolio of accounts  receivable from WebBank, as further discussed in
Item 2.01 below, and the Servicing Agreement was effectively  terminated on such
date. John Fox, the owner of Rockland, is a former employee of WebBank.

ITEM 2.01.  COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

     On December  30,  2004,  Rockland  exercised  its option to  purchase  from
WebBank a portfolio of accounts  receivable (the  "Receivables") from WebBank in
connection with the termination of the Servicing  Agreement  between WebBank and
Rockland as further discussed in Item 1.02 above. The Receivables were purchased
at  book  value  from  WebBank  pursuant  to that  certain  Asset  Purchase  and
Assignment and Assumption  Agreement,  a copy of which is attached as an exhibit
hereto and incorporated herein by reference,  for an aggregate purchase price of
$5,791,395.41, subject to certain specified adjustments.  Specifically, Rockland
purchased specified factoring accounts held by WebBank,  all of WebBank's right,
title and  interest  under  specified  factoring  agreements  and  participation
agreements and other agreements,  arrangements,  commitments and  understandings
related  thereto or to the  Receivables,  all of which were  acquired by WebBank
pursuant to the Servicing Agreement (the "Contracts"). Rockland also assumed and
agreed to pay and perform all  obligations  of WebBank  under the  Contracts and
otherwise in respect of the  purchased  assets  arising on and after the closing
date. John Fox, the owner of Rockland, is a former employee of WebBank.

ITEM 9.01.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS

     (a)  Financial Statements of Businesses Acquired.

          Not Applicable

     (b)  Pro Forma Financial Information.

          Basis of Presentation

               The  following   unaudited  pro  forma   condensed   consolidated
          financial  statements  reflect  the  sale of the  Receivables  and the
          termination  of the  Servicing  Agreement.  These  unaudited pro forma
          condensed  consolidated  financial statements have been prepared from,
          and should be read in conjunction  with,  the historical  consolidated
          financial  statements  and  notes  thereto  of the  Company  which are
          included in the Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A for the year
          ended  December  31,  2003 and  Quarterly  Report on Form 10-QSB as of
          September 30, 2004 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2004.

               The unaudited pro forma information is presented for illustrative
          purposes  only  and is not  necessarily  indicative  of the  operating
          results or financial  position  that would have  occurred had the sale
          been  consummated  at  the  dates  indicated,  nor  is it  necessarily
          indicative of future  operating  results or financial  position of the
          Company.

               The  unaudited  pro forma  condensed  consolidated  statements of
          income give effect to the sale of Receivables  and  termination of the
          Servicing  Agreement as if they had  occurred at the  beginning of the
          periods  presented.  The  unaudited pro forma  condensed  consolidated
          balance sheet gives effect to the sale of Receivables  and termination
          of the  Servicing  Agreement as if they occurred on September 30, 2004
          and the  proceeds  were used to  redeem  outstanding  certificates  of
          deposit, which will mature within six months of the sale date.
