The Bank also purchases mortgage-backed securities and invests in U.S. Government and agency obligations and other permissible investments. At June 30, 2000, all of the Bank's real estate mortgage loans (excluding mortgage-backed securities) were secured by properties located in Indiana. The Bank's revenues are derived primarily from interest on mortgage loans, mortgage-backed securities, consumer and other loans, investment securities, income from service charges and loan originations and loan servicing fee income.

Historically, the Bank has originated fixed-rate, one- to four-family mortgage loans. In the early 1980s, the Bank began to focus on the origination of adjustable-rate mortgage ("ARM") loans and short-term loans for retention in its portfolio in order to increase the percentage of loans in its portfolio with more frequent repricing or shorter maturities, and in some cases higher yields, than fixed-rate mortgage loans. While the Bank has continued to originate fixed-rate mortgage loans in response to customer demand, currently, the Bank originates and sells most of its fixed-rate, first mortgage loans with maturities of greater than 15 years in the secondary market with servicing retained. The Bank also originates consumer (including automobile), commercial and multi-family real estate, commercial business, and residential construction loans in its primary market area. At June 30, 2000, the Bank's net loan portfolio totaled $150.8 million. The Executive Committee of the Bank, comprised of any three outside directors selected by and including the Chairman, has the responsibility for the supervision of the Bank's loan portfolio with an overview by the Board of Directors. The Bank's loan policy requires Executive Committee or full Board approval on mortgage, commercial and consumer loans over certain dollar thresholds, loan extensions, special loan situations, assumptions and loan participation. The Board of Directors has responsibility for the overall supervision of the Bank's loan portfolio and in addition, reviews all foreclosure actions or the taking of deeds-in-lieu of foreclosure. 4 The following schedule presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. It distinguishes between changes related to higher or lower outstanding balances and changes due to the levels and changes in interest rates. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest- bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (i.e., changes in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rate (i.e., changes in rate multiplied by old volume). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

The total amount of loans due after June 30, 2001 which have fixed interest rates is $66.0 million, while the total amount of loans due after such dates which have floating or adjustable interest rates is $69.7 million. 8 One- to Four-Family Residential Mortgage Lending. Residential loan originations of this type are generated by the Bank's marketing efforts, its present and walk-in customers, and referrals from real estate agents and builders. The Bank focuses its lending efforts primarily on the origination of loans secured by first mortgages on owner-occupied, one- to four-family residences. At June 30, 2000, the Bank's one- to four-family residential mortgage loans totaled $69.7 million, or approximately 45.4% of the Bank's total gross loan portfolio. The Bank currently originates up to a maximum of 30-year adjustable-rate, one- to four- family residential mortgage loans in amounts up to 95% of the appraised value of the security property provided that private mortgage insurance is obtained in an amount sufficient to reduce the Bank's exposure to at or below the 80% loan-to-value level. The Bank's one- to four-family residential mortgage originations are primarily in its market and surrounding areas. The Bank currently offers one-, three-, five-, and seven-year ARM loans with an interest rate margin generally 275 basis points over the one year Treasury rates. These loans have a fixed-rate for the stated period and, thereafter, such loans adjust annually. These loans provide for up to a 200 basis points annual cap and a lifetime cap of 600 basis points over the initial rate. Under the current ARM program, such loans will never adjust more than 150 basis points below the initial rate. Depending on whether a one-, three-, five-, or seven-year loan is selected, per-year and lifetime caps will range from 100 to 200 basis points, and 300 to 600 basis points. As a consequence of using an initial fixed-rate, caps and floor, the interest rates on these loans may not be as rate sensitive as is the Bank's cost of funds. The Bank's ARM loans do not permit negative amortization of principal. The Bank qualifies borrowers at the fully indexed rate. Due to consumer demand, the Bank also offers fixed-rate 10- through 15-year and 15- through 30-year mortgage loans, most of which conform to the secondary market standards of Freddie Mac. Interest rates charged on these fixed-rate loans are competitively priced according to market conditions. Residential loans generally do not include prepayment penalties. Most of the fixed-rate loans with maturities of 15 to 30 years are sold in the secondary market. The Bank generally retains servicing rights on such loans. Generally, the Bank will retain fixed-rate loans with maturities of 15 years or less in its portfolio. The Bank reserves the right to discontinue, adjust or create new lending programs to respond to its needs and to competitive factors. In underwriting one- to four-family residential real estate loans, First Federal evaluates both the borrower's ability to make monthly payments and the value of the property securing the loan. Virtually all properties securing real estate loans made by First Federal are appraised by independent fee appraisers approved and qualified by the Board of Directors. First Federal generally requires borrowers to obtain an attorney's title opinion or title insurance, and fire and property insurance (including flood insurance, if necessary) in an amount not less than the amount of the loan. Real estate loans originated by the Bank generally contain a "due on sale" clause allowing the Bank to declare the unpaid principal balance due and payable upon the sale of the security property. Consumer Lending. First Federal offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including automobile, home equity, home improvement and student loans, and loans secured by savings deposits. In addition, First Federal offers other secured and unsecured consumer loans. The Bank currently originates substantially all of its consumer loans in its primary market area and surrounding 9 areas. The Bank originates consumer loans on both a direct and indirect basis. Direct loans are made when the Bank extends credit directly to the borrower. Indirect loans are obtained when the Bank purchases loan contracts from retailers of goods or services which have extended credit to their customers. The only indirect lending by First Federal began in the early 1980s, and is with selected automobile and boat dealers located in the Bank's primary market and surrounding areas. The Bank underwrites each indirect loan in accordance with its normal consumer loan standards. At June 30, 2000, the Bank's consumer loan portfolio totaled $49.1 million, or 32.0% of its total gross loan portfolio. Consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than do residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans which are unsecured or are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles or mobile homes. In such cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a result of the greater likelihood of damage, loss or depreciation. In addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower's continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on such loans. At June 30, 2000, $114,000 or approximately .23% of the consumer loan portfolio was non- performing. There can be no assurance that delinquencies will not increase in the future. The largest component of First Federal's consumer loan portfolio consists of automobile loans. At June 30, 2000, automobile loans totaled $31.4 million, or approximately 20.4% of the Bank's gross loan portfolio. Loans secured by second mortgages, together with loans secured by all prior liens, are currently limited to 100% or less of the appraised value of the property securing the loan. Generally, such loans have a maximum term of up to 20 years. As of June 30, 2000, home equity and home improvement loans, most of which are secured by second mortgages, amounted to $13.1 million, or 8.5% of the Bank's gross loan portfolio. Consumer loan terms vary according to the type and value of collateral, length of contract and creditworthiness of the borrower. Loans secured by deposit accounts at the Bank are currently originated for up to 90% of the account balance with a hold placed on the account restricting the withdrawal of the account balance. The interest rate on such loans is typically equal to 200 basis points above the deposit contract rate. The underwriting standards employed by the Bank for consumer loans include an application, a determination of the applicant's payment history on other debts and an assessment of ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. Although creditworthiness of the applicant is a primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the security, if any, in relation to the proposed loan amount. Construction Lending. The Bank engages in limited amounts of construction lending to individuals for the construction of their residences as well as to builders for the construction of single family homes in the Bank's primary market area and surrounding areas. At June 30, 2000, the Bank 10 had $2.3 million of gross construction loans, most of which were to borrowers who intended to live in the properties upon completion of construction. Construction loans to individuals for their residences are structured to be converted to permanent loans at the end of the construction phase, which typically runs for six months. During the construction phase, the borrower pays interest only. Residential construction loans are generally underwritten pursuant to the same guidelines used for originating permanent residential loans. Construction loans to builders of one- to four-family residences require the payment of interest only for up to 12 months. In most cases, these loans carry fixed interest rates. At June 30, 2000, the Bank had $1.0 million in construction loans outstanding to builders. Construction lending generally affords the Bank an opportunity to receive interest at rates higher than those obtainable from permanent residential loans and to receive higher origination and other loan fees. In addition, construction loans are generally made with fixed rates of interest or for relatively short terms. Nevertheless, construction lending is generally considered to involve a higher level of credit risk than one- to four-family residential lending due to the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers and the effects of general economic conditions on development projects, real estate developers and managers. In addition, the nature of these loans is such that they are more difficult to evaluate and monitor. Finally, the risk of loss on construction loans is dependent largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the individual property's value upon completion of the project and the estimated cost (including interest) of the project. If the cost estimate proves to be inaccurate, the Bank may be required to advance funds beyond the amount originally committed to permit completion of the project. At June 30, 2000, the Bank had no construction loans outstanding which were over thirty days delinquent. Commercial and Multi-Family Real Estate Lending. The Bank has also engaged in limited commercial and multi-family real estate lending in the Wabash market area and surrounding areas and has purchased participation interests in loans from other financial institutions throughout Indiana and neighboring jurisdictions. At June 30, 2000, the Bank had $8.1 million of commercial and multi-family real estate loans, which represented 5.3% of the Bank's total gross loan portfolio. The largest commercial or multi-family real estate loan outstanding at June 30, 2000 was $1.1 million, which was performing in accordance with its repayment terms. At June 30, 2000, all of the Bank's commercial and multi-family real estate loan portfolio was secured by properties located in Indiana. Loans secured by commercial and multi-family real estate properties are generally larger and involve a greater degree of credit risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. Because payments on loans secured by commercial real estate properties are often dependent on the successful operation or management of the properties, repayment of such loans may be subject to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. If the cash flow from the project is reduced (for example, if leases are not obtained or renewed), the borrower's ability to repay the loan may be impaired. The Bank's commercial and multi-family real estate loan portfolio is secured primarily by apartment buildings and, to a lesser extent, office buildings and nursing homes. Commercial and multi-family real estate loans generally have terms that do not exceed 20 years. The Bank has a 11 variety of rate adjustment features and other terms in its commercial and multi-family real estate loan portfolio. Generally, the loans are made in amounts up to 75% of the appraised value of the security property. Commercial real estate loans provide for a margin over a designated index which is generally the prime rate and multi-family loans provide for a margin over the one-year Treasury bill rate. The Bank currently analyzes the financial condition of the borrower, the borrower's credit history, and the reliability and predictability of the cash flow generated by the property securing the loan. The Bank generally requires personal guaranties of the borrowers. Appraisals on properties securing commercial real estate loans originated by the Bank are performed by independent appraisers. Commercial Business Lending. The Bank began increasing its commercial loan portfolio in fiscal 1999 due to the addition of a commercial loan officer. At June 30, 2000, approximately $24.3 million, or 15.8% of the Bank's total gross loan portfolio, was comprised of commercial loans. Unlike residential mortgage loans, which generally are made on the basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from his or her employment and other income and which are secured by real property whose value tends to be more easily ascertainable, commercial business loans typically are made on the basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower's business. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial business loans may be substantially dependent on the success of the business itself (which, in turn, is likely to be dependent upon the general economic environment). The Bank's commercial business loans are usually, but not always, secured by business assets. However, the collateral securing the loans may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the business. The Bank recognizes the generally increased risks associated with commercial business lending. First Federal's commercial business lending policy includes credit file documentation and analysis of the borrower's character, capacity to repay the loan, the adequacy of the borrower's capital and collateral as well as an evaluation of conditions affecting the borrower. Analysis of the borrower's past, present and future cash flows is also an important aspect of First Federal's current credit analysis. Non-Performing Assets and Classified Assets When a borrower fails to make a required payment on real estate secured loans and consumer loans within 30 days after the payment is due, the Bank generally institutes collection procedures by mailing a delinquency notice. The customer is contacted again, by notice and/or telephone, when the payment is 31 days past due and when 60 days past due. In most cases, delinquencies are cured promptly; however, if a loan secured by real estate or other collateral has been delinquent for more than 90 days, satisfactory payment arrangements must be adhered to or the Bank will initiate foreclosure or repossession. Generally, when a loan becomes delinquent 90 days or more or when the collection of principal or interest becomes doubtful, the Bank will place the loan on a non-accrual status and, as a result, previously accrued interest income on the loan is taken out of current income. The loan will remain on a non-accrual status as long as the loan is 90 days delinquent. 12 The following table sets forth information concerning delinquent mortgage and other loans at June 30, 2000. The amounts presented represent the total remaining principal balances of the related loans, rather than the actual payment amounts which are overdue.

The ratio of delinquent loans to total loans (net), was 2.30% at June 30, 2000. 13 The table below sets forth the amounts and categories of non-performing assets in the Bank's loan portfolio at the dates indicated. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when the collection of principal and/or interest become doubtful or when the loan is in excess of 90 days delinquent. Foreclosed and repossessed assets include assets acquired in settlement of loans. See Notes 1 and 4 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Non-Performing Assets. Included in non-accruing loans at June 30, 2000 were 14 consumer loans totaling $75,000 secured by property including automobiles, manufactured homes and other collateral. Foreclosed and repossessed assets included automobiles and commercial property totaling $39,000 at June 30, 2000. While total non-performing assets and total non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets decreased from June 30, 1999 to June 30, 2000, management believes it is not unlikely that these numbers will increase after June 30, 2000 as delinquent loans are placed on non-accrual status. Other Loans of Concern. In addition to the non-performing loans and foreclosed and repossessed assets set forth in the preceding table, as of June 30, 2000 there was also an aggregate of $4.1 million in net book value of loans classified by the Bank with respect to the majority of which known information about the possible credit problems of the borrowers or the cash flows of the security properties have caused management to have some doubts as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and which may result in the future inclusion of such items in the non-performing asset categories. The principal components of loans of concern are 69 consumer loans aggregating $572,000, 18 one- to four-family loans aggregating $889,000 and 25 commercial loans aggregating $2.7 million at June 30, 2000. The principal components of loans of concern at June 30, 1999 consisted of 132 consumer loans aggregating $1.1 million, five one- to four-family loans aggregating $344,000 and three commercial loans aggregating $460,000. As of June 30, 2000, there were no other loans not included on the foregoing table or discussed above where known information about the possible credit problems of borrowers caused management to have doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with present loan repayment terms and which may result in disclosure of such loans in the future. 14 Classified Assets. Federal regulations provide for the classification of loans and other assets such as debt and equity securities considered by the OTS to be of lesser quality as "substandard," "doubtful" or "loss." An asset is considered "substandard" if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. "Substandard" assets include those characterized by the "distinct possibility" that the savings association will sustain "some loss" if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as "doubtful" have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified "substandard," with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make "collection or liquidation in full," on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, "highly questionable and improbable." Assets classified as "loss" are those considered "uncollectible" and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted. When a savings association classifies problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, it may establish general allowances for loan losses in an amount deemed prudent by management. General allowances represent loss allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been allocated to particular problem assets. When a savings association classifies problem assets as "loss," it is required either to establish a specific allowance for losses equal to 100% of that portion of the asset so classified or to charge-off such amount. An association's determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by the association's District Director at the regional OTS office, who may order the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances. In accordance with its classification of assets policy, the Bank regularly reviews the loans in its portfolio to determine whether any loans require classification. On the basis of management's review of its assets, at June 30, 2000, the Bank had classified a total of approximately $1.9 million of its assets as substandard, $434,000 as doubtful, $3,000 as loss, and $2.0 million as special mention. At June 30, 2000, total classified and non-performing assets comprised $4.6 million, or 23.45% of the Bank's capital, or 2.1% of the Bank's total assets. Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on management's evaluation of the risk inherent in its loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of its loan activity. Such evaluation, which includes a review of loans for which full collectibility may not be reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss experience and other factors that warrant recognition in providing for an adequate loan loss allowance. Real estate properties acquired through foreclosure are recorded at fair value. If fair value at the date of foreclosure is lower than the balance of the related loan, the difference will be charged- off to the allowance at the time of transfer. Valuations are periodically updated by management and if the value declines, a specific provision for losses on such property is established by a charge to operations. Although management believes that it uses the best information available to determine the allowances, unforeseen market conditions could result in adjustments and net earnings could be significantly affected if circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the 15 final determination. Future additions to the Bank's allowances will be the result of periodic loan, property and collateral reviews and thus cannot be predicted in advance. At June 30, 2000, the Bank had a total allowance for loan losses of $1.96 million or 1.3% of total loans, net. See Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report to Stockholders (the "Annual Report"), attached hereto as Exhibit 13. The following table sets forth an analysis of the Bank's allowance for loan losses.

17 Investment Activities First Federal must maintain minimum levels of investments that qualify as liquid assets under OTS regulations. Liquidity may increase or decrease depending upon the availability of funds and comparative yields on investments in relation to the return on loans. Historically, the Bank has generally maintained its liquid assets above the minimum requirements imposed by the OTS regula tions and at a level believed adequate to meet requirements of normal daily activities, repayment of maturing debt and potential deposit outflows. As of June 30, 2000, the Bank's liquidity ratio (liquid assets as a percentage of net withdrawable savings deposits and current borrowings) was 7.03%. See "Regulation - Liquidity." Federally chartered savings institutions have the authority to invest in various types of liquid assets, including United States Treasury obligations, securities of various federal agencies, certain certificates of deposit of insured banks and savings institutions, certain bankers' acceptances, repurchase agreements and federal funds. Subject to various restrictions, federally chartered savings institutions may also invest their assets in commercial paper, investment grade corporate debt securities and mutual funds whose assets conform to the investments that a federally chartered savings institution is otherwise authorized to make directly. Generally, the investment policy of the Bank is to invest funds among various categories of investments and maturities based upon the Bank's need for liquidity, to achieve the proper balance between its desire to minimize risk and maximize yield, to provide collateral for borrowings, and to fulfill the Bank's asset/liability management policies. First Federal's investment and mortgage-backed securities portfolios are managed in accordance with a written investment policy adopted by the Board of Directors. Other than certificates of deposit and mortgage-backed securities, investments may be made by the President of First Federal only with the approval of the Investment Committee. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS No. 115"), requires that securities and mortgage-backed securities be classified as held to maturity, available for sale or trading purposes. Under SFAS No. 115, securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity are classified as held to maturity and are reported at amortized cost. Securities classified as available for sale are those the Company may sell in response to liquidity needs, for asset/liability management purposes and other reasons and are reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale are reported as a separate component of equity, net of tax. Trading securities are those which are purchased for sale in the near future and are reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on trading securities are included in income. Transfers between categories are accounted for as sales and repurchases at fair value. For any sales or transfers of securities classified as held to maturity, the cost basis, the realized gain or loss, and the circumstances leading to the decision to sell are required to be disclosed. At the time of purchase of new securities, management of the Company makes a determination as to the appropriate classification of securities as available for sale or held to maturity. At June 30, 2000, the Company had no securities classified as held to maturity and $52.0 million classified as available for sale including mortgage-backed securities. No securities were held for trading purposes on such date. 18 Securities. It is the Company's general policy to purchase securities which are U.S. Government securities and federal agency obligations, state and local government obligations, commercial paper, short-term corporate debt securities and overnight federal funds. At June 30, 2000, the weighted average term to maturity or repricing of the investment securities portfolio, excluding the FHLB, Fannie Mae stock and other equity securities available for sale, was 8.7 years. OTS regulations restrict investments in corporate debt and equity securities by the Bank. These restrictions include prohibitions against investments in the debt securities of any one issuer in excess of 15% of the Bank's unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus as defined by federal regulations, which totaled $18.5 million as of June 30, 2000, plus an additional 10% if the investments are fully secured by readily marketable collateral. See "Regulation - Federal Regulation of Savings Associations" for a discussion of additional restrictions on the Bank's investment activities. The following table sets forth the composition of the Company's securities portfolio excluding mortgage-backed securities, at the dates indicated.

Except for obligations of state and local governments, the Company's securities portfolio at June 30, 2000 contained neither tax-exempt securities nor securities of any issuer with an aggregate book value in excess of 10% of the Company's shareholders' equity, excluding those issued by the United States Government, or its agencies. Mortgage-Backed Securities. The Company's investment in mortgage-backed securities can serve as collateral for borrowings and, through repayments, as a source of liquidity. In addition, management from time to time has purchased mortgage-backed securities in order to supplement loan originations. For information regarding the carrying and market values of the Company's mortgage-backed securities portfolio, see Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report attached hereto as Exhibit 13.

Sources of Funds General. The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, amortization and prepayment of loan principal (including interest earned on mortgage-backed securities), sales of whole loans and loan participations, interest earned on or sales and maturation of investment securities and short-term investments, and funds provided from operations. Borrowings, including FHLB advances and reverse repurchase agreements, may be used at times to compensate for seasonal reductions in deposits or deposit inflows at less than projected levels, and may be used on a longer term basis to support expanded lending activities. Deposits. First Federal offers a variety of deposit accounts having a wide range of interest rates and terms. The Bank's deposits consist of passbook savings accounts, money market savings accounts, NOW, money market checking and regular checking accounts, and certificate accounts ranging in terms from 91 days to 60 months. The Bank only solicits deposits from its market area and currently does not use brokers to obtain deposits. The Bank relies primarily on competitive pricing policies, advertising and customer service to attract and retain these deposits. The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic conditions, changes in money market and prevailing interest rates, and competition. The variety of deposit accounts offered by the Bank has allowed it to be competitive in obtaining funds and to respond with flexibility to changes in consumer demand. The Bank has become more susceptible to short-term fluctuations in deposit flows, as customers have become more interest rate conscious. The Bank endeavors to manage the pricing of its deposits in keeping with its asset/liability management and profitability objectives. Based on its experience, the Bank believes that its passbook savings, money market savings accounts, NOW, money market checking and regular checking accounts are relatively stable sources of deposits. However, the ability of the Bank to attract and maintain certificates of deposit and its passbook accounts and the rates paid on these deposits has been and will continue to be significantly affected by market conditions. 21 The following table sets forth the savings flows at the Bank during the periods indicated.

- -------------------- (1)Deposits from governmental and other public entities. Generally, the Bank does not pay interest rates on its jumbo certificates of deposit (certificates of deposit with balances of $100,000 or more) in excess of the interest rates paid on certificates of deposit with balances of less than $100,000. Borrowings. Although deposits are the Bank's primary source of funds, the Bank's policy has been to utilize borrowings when they are a less costly source of funds, can be invested at a positive interest rate spread or when the Bank desires additional capacity to fund loan demand. 23 First Federal's borrowings historically have consisted of advances from the FHLB of Indianapolis upon the security of a blanket collateral agreement of a percentage of unencumbered loans. Such advances can be made pursuant to several different credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of maturities. At June 30, 2000, the Bank had $64.2 million in FHLB advances, and a $1 million overdraft line of credit was available from the FHLB. From time to time, First Federal has entered into repurchase agreements through a nationally recognized broker-dealer firm. These agreements are accounted for as borrowings by the Bank and are secured by certain of the Bank's securities. The broker-dealer takes possession of the securities during the period that the repurchase agreement is outstanding. The terms of the agreements have typically ranged from 30 days to a maximum of six months. The proceeds of these transactions are used to meet cash flow needs of the Bank. At June 30, 2000, the Bank had no repurchase agreements outstanding. The following table sets forth the maximum month-end balance and average balance of FHLB advances and line of credit from the FHLB and securities sold under agreements to repurchase at the dates indicated.

Subsidiary Activities As a federally chartered savings association, First Federal is permitted by OTS regulations to invest up to 2% of its assets, or $4.4 million at June 30, 2000, in the stock of, or loans to, service corporation subsidiaries. First Federal may invest an additional 1% of its assets in service 24 corporations where such additional funds are used for inner city or community development purposes. In addition to investments in service corporations, federal associations are permitted to invest an unlimited amount in operating subsidiaries engaged solely in activities which a federal association may engage in directly. First Federal had no subsidiaries at June 30, 2000. Regulation General. First Federal is a federally chartered savings bank, the deposits of which are federally insured and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. Accordingly, First Federal is subject to broad federal regulation and oversight extending to all its operations. The Bank is a member of the FHLB of Indianapolis and is subject to certain limited regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve Board"). As the savings and loan holding company of First Federal, the Company also is subject to federal regulation and oversight. The purpose of the regulation of the Holding Company and other savings and loan holding companies is to protect subsidiary savings associations. The Bank is a member of the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"), which together with the Bank Insurance Fund (the "BIF") are the two deposit insurance funds administered by the FDIC, and the deposits of the Bank are insured by the FDIC. As a result, the FDIC has certain regulatory and examination authority over the Bank. Certain of these regulatory requirements and restrictions are discussed below or elsewhere in this document. Federal Regulation of Savings Associations. The OTS has extensive authority over the operations of savings associations. As part of this authority, First Federal is required to file periodic reports with the OTS and is subject to periodic examinations by the OTS and the FDIC. When these examinations are conducted by the OTS and the FDIC, the examiners may require the Bank to provide for higher general or specific loan loss reserves. All savings associations are subject to a semi-annual assessment, based upon the association's total assets, to fund the operations of the OTS. The Bank's OTS assessment for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000 was approximately $54,000. The OTS also has extensive enforcement authority over all savings institutions and their holding companies, including First Federal and the Company. This enforcement authority includes, among other things, the ability to assess civil money penalties, to issue cease-and-desist or removal orders and to initiate injunctive actions. In general, these enforcement actions may be initiated for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices. Other actions or inactions may provide the basis for enforcement action, including misleading or untimely reports filed with the OTS. Except under certain circumstances, public disclosure of final enforcement actions by the OTS is required. In addition, the investment, lending and branching authority of the Bank is prescribed by federal laws, and it is prohibited from engaging in any activities not permitted by such laws. For instance, no savings institution may invest in non-investment grade corporate debt securities. In addition, the permissible level of investment by federal associations in loans secured by 25 non-residential real property may not exceed 400% of total capital, except with approval of the OTS. Federal savings associations are also generally authorized to branch nationwide. At June 30, 2000, First Federal was in compliance with each of the noted restrictions. The Bank's general permissible lending limit for loans-to-one borrower is the greater of $500,000 or 15% of unimpaired capital and surplus (except for loans fully secured by certain readily marketable collateral, in which case this limit is increased to 25% of unimpaired capital and surplus). At June 30, 2000, the Bank's lending limit under this restriction was approximately $2.9 million. First Federal is in compliance with the loans-to-one borrower limitation. The OTS, as well as the other federal banking agencies, has adopted guidelines establishing safety and soundness standards on such matters as loan underwriting and documentation, asset quality, earnings standards, internal controls and audit systems, interest rate risk exposure and compensation and other employee benefits. Any institution which fails to comply with these standards must submit a compliance plan. Insurance of Accounts and Regulation by the FDIC. First Federal is a member of the SAIF, which is administered by the FDIC. Deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the FDIC and such insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. As insurer, the FDIC imposes deposit insurance premiums and is authorized to conduct examinations of and to require reporting by FDIC-insured institutions. It also may prohibit any FDIC-insured institution from engaging in any activity the FDIC determines by regulation or order to pose a serious risk to the SAIF or the BIF. The FDIC also has the authority to initiate enforcement actions against savings associations, after giving the OTS an opportunity to take such action, and may terminate the deposit insurance if it determines that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, or is in an unsafe or unsound condition. The FDIC's deposit insurance premiums are assessed through a risk-based system, under which all insured depository institutions are placed into one of nine categories and assessed insurance premiums based upon their level of capital and supervisory evaluation. Under the system, institutions classified as well capitalized (i.e., a core capital ratio of at least 5%, a ratio of Tier 1 or core capital to risk-weighted assets ("Tier 1 risk-based capital") of at least 6% and a risk-based capital ratio of at least 10%) and considered healthy pay the lowest premium while institutions that are less than adequately capitalized (i.e., core or Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios of less than 4% or a risk-based capital ratio of less than 8%) and considered of substantial supervisory concern pay the highest premium. Risk classification of all insured institutions will be made by the FDIC for each semi-annual assessment period. As of June 30, 2000, the Bank met the requirements of a well- capitalized institution. Regulatory Capital Requirements. Federally insured savings associations, such as the Bank, are required to maintain a minimum level of regulatory capital. The OTS has established capital standards, including a tangible capital requirement, a leverage ratio (or core capital) requirement and a risk-based capital requirement applicable to such savings associations. These capital requirements must be generally as stringent as the comparable capital requirements for national banks. The OTS is also authorized to impose capital requirements in excess of these standards on individual associations on a case-by-case basis. 26 The capital regulations require tangible capital of at least 1.5% of adjusted total assets (as defined by regulation). Tangible capital generally includes common stockholders' equity and retained income, and certain noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related income. In addition, all intangible assets, other than a limited amount of purchased mortgage servicing rights, must be deducted from tangible capital for calculating compliance with this requirement. At June 30, 2000, First Federal did not have any unamortized purchased mortgage servicing rights, but did have certain intangible assets related to the purchase of the branch in South Whitley, Indiana. The OTS regulations establish special capitalization requirements for savings associations that own subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2000, the Bank had no subsidiaries. At June 30, 2000, the Bank had tangible capital of $17.2 million, or 7.92% of adjusted total assets, which is approximately $8.5 million above the minimum requirement of 1.5% of adjusted total assets in effect on that date. The capital standards also require core capital equal to at least 3% of adjusted total assets. Core capital generally consists of tangible capital plus certain intangible assets, including a limited amount of purchased credit card relationships. As a result of the prompt corrective action provisions discussed below, however, a savings association must maintain a core capital ratio of at least 4% to be considered adequately capitalized unless its supervisory condition is such to allow it to maintain a 3% ratio. At June 30, 2000 the Bank had certain intangible assets related to the branch purchase which were subject to these tests. At June 30, 2000, the Bank had core capital equal to $17.2 million, or 7.9% of adjusted total assets, which is $8.5 million above the minimum leverage ratio requirement of 3% as in effect on that date. The OTS risk-based requirement requires savings associations to have total capital of at least 8% of risk-weighted assets. Total capital consists of core capital, as defined above, and supplementary capital. Supplementary capital consists of certain permanent and maturing capital instruments that do not qualify as core capital and general valuation loan and lease loss allowances up to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. Supplementary capital may be used to satisfy the risk-based requirement only to the extent of core capital. The OTS is also authorized to require a savings association to maintain an additional amount of total capital to account for concentration of credit risk and the risk of non-traditional activities. At June 30, 2000, First Federal had no capital instruments that qualify as supplementary capital and $2.0 million of general loss reserves, which was $300,000 more than 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. Certain exclusions from capital and assets are required to be made for the purpose of calculating total capital. Such exclusions consist of equity investments (as defined by regulation) and that portion of land loans and 27 nonresidential construction loans in excess of an 80% loan-to-value ratio and reciprocal holdings of qualifying capital instruments. First Federal had no such exclusions from capital and assets at June 30, 2000. In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, including certain off-balance sheet items, will be multiplied by a risk weight, ranging from 0% to 100% based on the risk inherent in the type of asset. For example, the OTS has assigned a risk weight of 50% for prudently underwritten permanent one- to four-family first lien mortgage loans not more than 90 days delinquent and having a loan to value ratio of not more than 80% at origination unless insured to such ratio by an insurer approved by the Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. On June 30, 2000, the Bank had total risk-based capital of $18.9 million (including $17.2 million in core capital and $1.7 million in qualifying supplementary capital) and risk-weighted assets of $139.2 million (including, converted off-balance sheet assets); or total capital of 13.6% of risk-weighted assets. This amount was $7.8 million above the 8.0% requirement in effect on that date. The OTS and the FDIC are authorized and, under certain circumstances required, to take certain actions against savings associations that fail to meet their capital requirements. The OTS is generally required to take action to restrict the activities of an "undercapitalized association" (generally defined to be an association with less than either a 4% core capital ratio, a 4% Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio or an 8% risk-based capital ratio). Any such association must submit a capital restoration plan and until such plan is approved by the OTS may not increase its assets, acquire another institution, establish a branch or engage in any new activities, and generally may not make capital distributions. The OTS is authorized to impose the additional restrictions, discussed below, that are applicable to significantly undercapitalized associations. As a condition to the approval of the capital restoration plan, any company controlling an undercapitalized association must agree that it will enter into a limited capital maintenance guarantee with respect to the institution's achievement of its capital requirements. Any savings association that fails to comply with its capital plan or is "significantly undercapitalized" (i.e., Tier 1 risk-based or core capital ratios of less than 3% or a risk-based capital ratio of less than 6%) must be made subject to one or more additional actions and operating restrictions which may cover all aspects of its operations and include a forced merger or acquisition of the association; and any other action the OTS deems appropriate. An association that becomes "critically undercapitalized" (i.e., a tangible capital ratio of 2% or less) is subject to further mandatory restrictions on its activities in addition to those applicable to significantly undercapitalized associations. In addition, the OTS must appoint a receiver (or conservator with the concurrence of the FDIC) for a savings association, with certain limited exceptions, within 90 days after it becomes critically undercapitalized. Any undercapitalized association is also subject to the general enforcement authority of the OTS and the FDIC, including the appointment of a receiver or conservator. The OTS is also generally authorized to reclassify an association into a lower capital category and impose the restrictions applicable 28 to such category if the institution is engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or is in an unsafe or unsound condition. The imposition by the OTS or the FDIC of any of these measures on the Bank may have a substantial adverse effect on the Bank's operations and profitability. Limitations on Dividends and Other Capital Distributions. OTS regulations impose various restrictions or requirements on savings associations with respect to their ability to make distributions of capital, which include dividends, stock redemptions or repurchases, cash-out mergers and other transactions charged to the capital account. OTS regulations permit a federal savings association to pay dividends in any calendar year equal to net income for that year plus retained earnings for the preceding two years. Liquidity. All savings associations, including First Federal, are required to maintain an average daily balance of liquid assets equal to a certain percentage of the average daily balance of its liquidity base during the preceding calendar quarter or a percentage of the amount of its liquidity base at the end of the preceding quarter. For a discussion of what the Bank includes in liquid assets, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources" in the Annual Report attached as Exhibit 13. This liquid asset ratio requirement may vary from time to time (between 4% and 10%) depending upon economic conditions and savings flows of all savings associations. At the present time, the minimum liquid asset ratio is 4%. Penalties may be imposed upon associations for violations of the liquid asset ratio requirement. At June 30, 2000, the Bank was in compliance with the requirement with an overall liquid asset ratio of 7.03%. Qualified Thrift Lender Test. All savings associations, including the Bank, are required to meet a qualified thrift lender ("QTL") test to avoid certain restrictions on their operations. At June 30, 2000, the Bank met the test and has always met the test since its effectiveness. The test requires a savings association to have at least 65% of its portfolio assets (as defined by regulation) in qualified thrift investments on a monthly average in nine out of every 12 months on a rolling basis. As an alternative, the savings association may maintain 60% of its assets in those assets specified in Section 7701(a)(19) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under either test, such assets primarily consist of residential housing, related loans and investments. Any savings association that fails to meet the QTL test must convert to a national bank charter, unless it requalifies as a QTL and thereafter remains a QTL. If an association does not requalify and converts to a national bank charter, it must remain SAIF-insured until the FDIC permits it to transfer to the BIF. If such an association has not yet requalified or converted to a national bank, its new investments and activities are limited to those permissible for both a savings association and a national bank, and it is limited to national bank branching rights in its home state. In addition, the association is immediately ineligible to receive any new FHLB borrowings and is subject to national bank limits for payment of dividends. If such association has not requalified or converted to a national bank within three years after the failure, it must divest of all investments and cease all activities not permissible for a national bank. In addition, it must repay promptly any outstanding FHLB borrowings, which may result in prepayment penalties. If any association that fails the QTL test is controlled by a holding company, then within one year after the failure, the holding company must register as a bank holding company and become subject to all restrictions on bank holding companies. See "- Holding Company Regulation." 29 Community Reinvestment Act. Under the Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA"), every FDIC insured institution has a continuing and affirmative obligation consistent with safe and sound banking practices to help meet the credit needs of its entire community, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. The CRA does not establish specific lending requirements or programs for financial institutions nor does it limit an institution's discretion to develop the types of products and services that it believes are best suited to its particular community, consistent with the CRA. The CRA requires the OTS, in connection with the examination of the Bank, to assess the institution's record of meeting the credit needs of its community and to take such record into account in its evaluation of certain applications, such as a merger or the establishment of a branch, by the Bank. An unsatisfactory rating may be used as the basis for the denial of an application by the OTS. The federal banking agencies, including the OTS, have recently revised the CRA regulations and the methodology for determining an institution's compliance with the CRA. Due to the heightened attention being given to the CRA in the past few years, the Bank may be required to devote additional funds for investment and lending in its local community. The Bank was examined for CRA compliance in June 1996 and received a rating of satisfactory. Transactions with Affiliates. Generally, transactions between a savings association or its subsidiaries and its affiliates are required to be on terms as favorable to the association as trans actions with non-affiliates. In addition, certain of these transactions, such as loans to an affiliate, are restricted to a percentage of the association's capital. Affiliates of First Federal include the Company and any company which is under common control with the Bank. In addition, a savings association may not lend to any affiliate engaged in activities not permissible for a bank holding company or acquire the securities of most affiliates. The OTS has the discretion to treat subsidiaries of savings associations as affiliates on a case by case basis. Certain transactions with directors, officers or controlling persons are also subject to conflict of interest regulations enforced by the OTS. These conflict of interest regulations and other statutes also impose restrictions on loans to such persons and their related interests. Among other things, such loans must be made on substantially the same terms and conditions as loans to unaffiliated persons. At June 30, 2000, the Bank was in compliance with the above restrictions. Holding Company Regulation. The Company is a unitary savings and loan holding company subject to regulatory oversight by the OTS. As such, the Company is registered and files reports with the OTS and is subject to regulation and examination by the OTS. In addition, the OTS has enforcement authority over the Company and its non-savings association subsidiaries which also permits the OTS to restrict or prohibit activities that are determined to be a serious risk to the subsidiary savings association. As a unitary savings and loan holding company, the Company generally is not subject to activity restrictions. If the Company acquires control of another savings association as a separate subsidiary, it would become a multiple savings and loan holding company, and the activities of the Company and any of its subsidiaries (other than the Bank or any other SAIF-insured savings association) would become subject to such restrictions unless such other associations each qualify as a QTL and were acquired in a supervisory acquisition. 30 If the Bank fails the QTL test, the Company must obtain the approval of the OTS prior to continuing after such failure, directly or through its other subsidiaries, any business activity other than those approved for multiple savings and loan holding companies or their subsidiaries. In addition, within one year of such failure the Company must register as, and will become subject to, the restrictions applicable to bank holding companies. The activities authorized for a bank holding company are more limited than are the activities authorized for a unitary or multiple savings and loan holding company. See "Qualified Thrift Lender Test." The Company must obtain approval from the OTS before acquiring control of any other SAIF-insured association. Such acquisitions are generally prohibited if they result in a multiple savings and loan holding company controlling savings associations in more than one state. However, such interstate acquisitions are permitted based on specific state authorization or in a supervisory acquisition of a failing savings association. Federal Securities Law. The stock of the Company is registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Company is subject to the information, proxy solicitation, insider trading restrictions and other requirements of the SEC under the Exchange Act. Company stock held by persons who are affiliates (generally officers, directors and principal stockholders) of the Company may not be resold without registration or unless sold in accordance with certain resale restrictions. If the Company meets specified current public information requirements, each affiliate of the Company is able to sell in the public market, without registration, a limited number of shares in any three-month period. Federal Reserve System. The Federal Reserve Board requires all depository institutions to maintain non-interest bearing reserves at specified levels against their transaction accounts (primarily checking, NOW and Super NOW checking accounts). At June 30, 2000, the Bank was in compliance with these reserve requirements. The balances maintained to meet the reserve requirements imposed by the Federal Reserve Board may be used to satisfy liquidity requirements that may be imposed by the OTS. See "- Liquidity." Savings associations are authorized to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank "discount window," but Federal Reserve Board regulations require associations to exhaust other reasonable alternative sources of funds, including FHLB borrowings, before borrowing from the Federal Reserve Bank. Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Bank is a member of the FHLB of Indianapolis, which is one of 12 regional FHLBs that administers the home financing credit function of savings associations. Each FHLB serves as a reserve or central bank for its members within its assigned region. It is funded primarily from proceeds derived from the sale of consolidated obligations of the FHLB System. It makes loans to members (i.e., advances) in accordance with policies and procedures established by the board of directors of the FHLB which are subject to the oversight of the Federal Housing Finance Board. All advances from the FHLB are required to be fully secured by sufficient collateral as determined by the FHLB. In addition, all long-term advances are required to provide funds for residential home financing. 31 As a member, First Federal is required to purchase and maintain stock in the FHLB of Indianapolis. At June 30, 2000, First Federal had $3.4 million in FHLB stock, which was in compliance with this requirement. In past years, the Bank has received substantial dividends on its FHLB stock. Over the past five fiscal years such dividends have averaged 8.0% and were 8.0% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000. Under federal law, the FHLBs are required to provide funds for the resolution of troubled savings associations and to contribute to low- and moderately priced housing programs through direct loans or interest subsidies on advances targeted for community investment and low- and moderate-income housing projects. These contributions have affected adversely the level of FHLB dividends paid and could continue to do so in the future. These contributions could also have an adverse effect on the value of FHLB stock in the future. A reduction in value of the Bank's FHLB stock may result in a corresponding reduction in First Federal's capital. For the year ended June 30, 2000, dividends paid by the FHLB of Indianapolis to First Federal totaled $272,000and was approximately $259,000 in fiscal year 1999. The $272,000 dividend received for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000 reflects an annualized rate of 8.0%. Federal Taxation. In addition to the regular income tax, corporations, including savings associations such as the Bank, generally are subject to a minimum tax. An alternative minimum tax 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 exemption. The alternative minimum tax is imposed to the extent it exceeds the corporation's regular income tax and net operating losses can offset no more than 90% of alternative minimum taxable income. A portion of the Bank's reserves for losses on loans may not, without adverse tax consequences, be utilized for the payment of cash dividends or other distributions to a shareholder (including distributions on redemption, dissolution or liquidation) or for any other purpose (except to absorb bad debt losses). As of June 30, 2000, the portion of the Bank's reserves subject to this treatment for tax purposes totaled approximately $1.2 million. The Company and its subsidiaries file consolidated federal income tax returns on a fiscal year basis using the accrual method of accounting. The Company and its subsidiaries have not been audited by the IRS within the last ten years. Indiana Taxation. The State of Indiana imposes an 8.5% franchise tax on the net income (as defined) for financial (including thrift) institutions, exempting them from the current gross income, supplemental net income and intangible taxes. Net income for franchise tax purposes will constitute federal taxable income before net operating loss deductions and special deductions, adjusted for certain items, including Indiana income taxes, tax exempt interest and bad debts. Other applicable Indiana taxes include sales, use and property taxes. Delaware Taxation. As a Delaware holding company, the Holding Company is exempted from Delaware corporate income tax but is required to file an annual report with and pay an annual 32 fee to the State of Delaware. The Company is also subject to an annual franchise tax imposed by the State of Delaware which is generally based upon authorized shares. Competition First Federal faces strong competition, both in originating real estate and other loans and in attracting deposits. Competition in originating real estate loans comes primarily from other commercial banks, savings associations, credit unions and mortgage bankers making loans secured by real estate located in the Bank's market area. Commercial banks and finance companies provide vigorous competition in consumer lending. The Bank competes for real estate and other loans principally on the basis of the quality of services it provides to borrowers, interest rates and loan fees it charges, and the types of loans it originates. The Bank attracts all of its deposits through its retail banking offices, primarily from the communities in which those retail banking offices are located; therefore, competition for those deposits is principally from other commercial banks, savings associations and credit unions located in the same communities, as well as mutual funds. The Bank competes for these deposits by offering a variety of deposit accounts at competitive rates, convenient business hours, and convenient branch locations with interbranch deposit and withdrawal privileges at each. The Bank serves Wabash, Kosciukso, Grant, Miami, Huntington, Whitley and Elkhart Counties in Indiana. The Bank's primary market area, however, is the Counties of Wabash, Kosciukso and Whitley, Indiana. There are four commercial banks and one credit union which compete for deposits and loans in Wabash County. In Kosciukso County, there are six commercial banks, one credit union and one savings bank competing for market share. In Whitley County, there are five commercial banks, one credit union and one savings bank competing for market share. Employees At June 30, 2000, the Company and its affiliates had a total of 61 employees, including 11 part-time employees. The Company's employees are not represented by any collective bargaining group. Management considers its employee relations to be good.

In this our seventh year as a public company, our net income was up 7.6% over the previous year at $2,271,000 with diluted earnings per share up 7.5% at $1.57. Our growth is a reflection of the commitment our employees have made to provide service to our customers. I invite you to read Management's Discussion and Analysis beginning on page five that explains our financial condition and our performance in detail. Fiscal 2000 was a year of change. We completed all Y2K issues and were successful in making Y2K a nonevent for our customers. I would like to thank all the personnel who worked so diligently on this project. Change can be unexpected--as it was with the untimely death of Nicholas M. George on April 1, 2000. Mr. George served as President and CEO of First Federal Savings Bank for 23 years, but he will be remembered best as a leader, a colleague, and a friend. Through his leadership, Mr. George built the foundation from which FFW Corporation and its subsidiary, First Federal Savings Bank, will build upon and one which will allow us to thrive in the new millennium. To that end, we have continued our focus on updating our systems by constructing a new computer room and installing a wide area network. This will enable us to communicate more effectively with our branches and improve our financial services and products. As a shareholder, I ask you to review this Annual Report. We are proud of our history, our consistent growth, and our commitment to superior customer service. We recognize that our growth is possible because of the continued confidence of our shareholders. I would like to thank all of our employees and the Board of Directors for their efforts this past year and their dedication to First Federal Savings Bank and the communities it serves. We look forward to the opportunities and challenges of this next year and thank you for your support. Sincerely, Roger K. Cromer President and Chief Executive Officer 3 Selected Financial Information at or for the Year Ended June 30,:

These statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including, among other things, changes in economic conditions in the Company's market area, changes in policies by regulatory agencies, fluctuations in interest rates, demand for loans in the Company's market area and competition, that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results and those presently anticipated or projected. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company wishes to advise readers that the factors listed above could affect the Company's financial performance and could cause the Company's actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements. The Company does not undertake -- and specifically declines any obligation -- to publicly release the result of any revisions which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events. GENERAL FFW Corporation (the Company) owns First Federal Savings Bank of Wabash (the Bank or First Federal), and the Company's earnings are primarily dependent on the operations of First Federal. The following discussion relates primarily to the Bank. The principal business of First Federal is attracting deposits from the general public and making loans secured by residential real estate. The Bank's earnings are primarily dependent on net interest income, the difference between interest income and interest expense. Interest income is a function of the balances of loans, mortgage-backed securities and investments outstanding during the period and the yield earned on such assets. The balances of deposits and borrowings and the rates paid on such deposits and borrowings determines interest expense. Operating expenses consist of employee compensation and benefits, occupancy and equipment, federal deposit insurance and other general and administrative expenses. Economic conditions as well as federal regulations concerning financial institutions and monetary and fiscal policies affect the Company. Deposit balances are influenced by a number of factors including interest rates paid on competing personal investments and the level of personal income and savings in our market. Deposit balances are influenced by the perceptions of customers regarding the stability of the financial services industry. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for housing and by competition from other lending institutions. The primary sources of funds for lending activities include deposits, loan repayments, borrowings, sales and maturities of securities available for sale and funds provided from operations. FINANCIAL CONDITION Total assets increased $1.5 million during the year to $219.0 million at June 30, 2000. This increase was funded by an increase in deposits of $2.7 million. These funds were used to pay down FHLB advances and invest in government agencies, municipals and other securities. Total securities available for sale increased from $51.0 million at June 30, 1999 to $52.0 million at June 30, 2000. During fiscal 2000, state and municipal securities increased from $8.3 million at June 30, 1999 to $8.5 million at June 30, 2000 due to purchases made with excess cash at the holding company. Government agency securities decreased from $23.2 million at June 30, 1999 to $22.0 million at June 30, 2000. Mortgage-backed, equity and other securities increased from $19.5 million at June 30, 1999 to $21.6 million at June 30, 2000. The Company has net unrealized depreciation of $1.5 million, net of tax at June 30, 2000 for securities available for sale. Net loans decreased $681,000, or 0.4%, from $151.5 million at June 30, 1999 to $150.8 million at June 30, 2000. The decreases in the loan portfolio were comprised primarily of automobile loans which decreased $4.5 million during 5 fiscal 2000. Half of the loan portfolio is comprised of first mortgage loans secured by one-to-four family residential real estate located in the Company's market area. At June 30, 2000, first mortgage loans secured by real estate comprised $70.7 million, or 46.9% of the loan portfolio. The consumer and other loan portfolio included $31.4 million of automobile loans, $13.1 million of home equity and improvement loans, $24.3 million in commercial loans and $4.6 million in other consumer loans at June 30, 2000. Total deposits increased $2.7 million, or 2.1%, from $130.4 million at June 30, 1999 to $133.1 at June 30, 2000. During fiscal 2000, checking accounts increased $705,000 million, or 8.6%, and certificates of deposit and passbook accounts increased $2.0 million, or 1.6%. The increase resulted from increased core deposit accounts and targeted pricing of short term certificates of deposit. Assuming interest rates remain at present levels during the next fiscal year, management anticipates that deposits will continue to increase above current levels. As a result, management will continue to control the overall increases in interest rates in deposits by targeting certain terms and offering "specials" rather than across the board increases for all deposit products. If deposit growth lags behind loan demand, then an increase in FHLB advances may be necessary to fund the Company's lending and investment activities during fiscal 2001. Total shareholders' equity increased $258,000 to $19.6 million at June 30, 2000. The increase primarily resulted from net income of $2.3 million, $122,000 for the release of ESOP shares and $55,000 of proceeds from the exercise of stock options, which were offset by dividends paid of $694,000, $1.0 million change in unrealized depreciation on securities available for sale, net of tax, and $494,000 of treasury stock purchases. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Comparison of Years Ended June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999 General. Net income for the year ended June 30, 2000 was $2.3 million, an increase of $160,000 compared to net income of $2.1 million for the year ended June 30, 1999, an increase of 7.6%. The increase was primarily the result of an increase of $386,000 in net interest income and a decrease in income taxes of $165,000, which was partially offset by an increase of $67,000 in noninterest expense, a $24,000 increase in provisions for loan losses and a decrease in noninterest income of $300,000. Further details of the changes in these items are discussed below. Net Income from 1996 to 2000 $1,586 $1,344 $1,900 $2,111 $2,271 ------ ------- ------ ------ ------ 1996 1997(1) 1998 1999 2000 (1) Year of one time assessment by Savings Association Insurance Fund Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $386,000, or 5.8%, from $6.7 million to $7.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2000. The increase in net interest income was due to an increase of $635,000 in interest income, 6 partially offset by an increase of $249,000 in interest expense. The increase in net interest income was primarily a result of an increase in the yield on interest-earning assets and a decrease in the yield on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin, the ratio of net interest income to average earning assets, is affected by movements in interest rates and changes in the mix of earning assets and the liabilities that fund those assets. Net interest margin was 3.38% in 2000 compared to 3.28% in 1999. The net interest margin increased due primarily to the net impact of changes in yields and rates of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. In addition, First Federal believes that the net interest margin will continue to level out or decrease due to competitive pricing pressures. The yield on earning assets in 2000 was 7.93% compared to 7.88% in 1999. Average earning assets increased 2.5% in 2000, following a 11.3% increase in 1999. The effective rate on interest bearing liabilities was 5.08% in 2000, compared to 5.13% in 1999. Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses increased $24,000 from $1.01 million in fiscal 1999 to $1.03 million in fiscal 2000. The amounts provided during the fiscal year were based on management's quarterly analysis of the allowance for loan losses. In addition, the inherent and identified risks of commercial and consumer loans continue to require a higher level of provisions for loan losses. The Company has monitored the historical increase in net charge-offs in the commercial and consumer loan portfolios for the last three years and increased the provision for loan losses accordingly. The Company will continue to monitor its allowance for loan losses and make future additions to the allowance through the provision for loan losses. Although the Company maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level which it considers to be adequate to provide for potential losses, there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed estimated amounts or that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required in future periods. In addition, the Company's determination as to the amount of the allowance for loan losses is subject to review by the regulatory agencies, which can order the establishment of additional general or specific allowances. Noninterest Income. Noninterest income decreased 15.1% from $1.99 million in 1999 to $1.69 million in 2000. The factors influencing the decrease were net gain or loss on sales of securities and sales of loans. Loss on sale of securities was $63,000 in 2000 compared to a gain on sale of securities of $736,000 in 1999. This difference is due to the gain from a call on a mortgage-backed security for $724,000 during 1999. The gain on sale of loans decreased $138,000 as interest rates increased during the year causing a reduction in the number of newly originated fixed-rate mortgage loans with maturities greater than 15 years. Service charges and fees increased 7.4% from 1999 due to increased volume in our deposit areas. Other income increased $591,000 compared to 1999 due to death benefit proceeds from insurance resulting in additional non-taxable income of $559,000 which was offset by expenses related to a payment under a deferred compensation plan of $312,000 that is included in salaries and benefits expense. Non-interest Expense. During 2000, First Federal experienced an increase in noninterest expense of 1.5%, from $4.6 million in 1999 to $4.7 million in 2000. The increase was primarily attributed to correspondent bank charges, furniture and equipment expense, and salaries and benefits. Stringent cost control and better utilization of resources continues to be a major focus at First Federal. Salaries and benefits increased 17.4% in 2000 compared to 7.4% in 1999. The increase in 2000 is due to recording expense related to a payment under a deferred compensation plan of $312,000 but offset by $559,000 of proceeds from insurance included with other income. Occupancy and equipment costs increased 4.6% from the prior year. The increase is due to additional furniture purchased and the related depreciation costs. Correspondent bank charges increased 15.2% from prior year due to volume and the addition of imaging for our deposit customers. Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $799,000 in fiscal 2000 compared to $964,000 in fiscal 1999, a decrease of $165,000, or 17.1%. Income taxes decreased primarily as a result of the tax effects of the non-taxable insurance proceeds. Comparison of Years Ended June 30, 1999 and June 30, 1998 General. Net income for the year ended June 30, 1999 was $2.1 million, a increase of $211,000 compared to net income of $1.9 million for the year ended June 30, 1998, an increase of 11.1%. The increase was primarily the result of an increase of $688,000 in net interest income and $725,000 in noninterest income, which was partially offset by an increase of $791,000 in noninterest expense, a $305,000 increase in provisions for loan losses and an increase in income taxes of $106,000. Further details of the changes in these items are discussed below. Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $688,000, or 11.5%, from $6.0 million to $6.7 million for the year ended June 30, 1999. The increase in net interest income was due to an increase of $1.5 million in interest income, partially offset by an increase of $775,000 in interest expense. The increase in net interest income was primarily a result of an increase in average interest-earning assets exceeding the increase in average interest-bearing liabilities. 7 Net interest margin, the ratio of net interest income to average earning assets, is affected by movements in interest rates and changes in the mix of earning assets and the liabilities that fund those assets. Net interest margin was 3.28% in 1999 compared to 3.31% in 1998. The net interest margin decreased because of competitive pricing pressure. In addition, First Federal has relied more on FHLB advances to meet loan demand. The yield on earning assets in 1999 was 7.88% compared to 8.01% in 1999. Average earning assets increased 11.3% in 1999, following a 19.5% increase in 1998. The effective rate on interest bearing liabilities was 5.13% in 1999, compared to 5.26% in 1998. Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses increased $305,000 from $705,000 in fiscal 1998 to $1.0 million in fiscal 1999. The amounts provided during the fiscal year were based on management's quarterly analysis of the allowance for loan losses, and the changing composition of the total loan portfolio from one-to-four family to commercial and consumer loans. The inherent and identified risks of commercial and consumer loans require a higher level of provisions for loan losses. Non-interest Income. Supplementing the growth in net interest income was an increase in noninterest income of 57.3% over 1998. The factors influencing the growth were increased service fees, commission income, gains on sale of securities and loans. Gains on sale of securities were $736,000 in 1999, compared to $266,000 in 1998. The increase was due to a call on a mortgage backed security for $724,000. The gain on sale of loans increased $44,000 as management continued to sell newly originated fixed-rate mortgage loans with maturities greater than 15 years. Service charges and fees increased 42.0% from 1998 due to increased volume in our loan and deposit areas. Non-interest Expense. During 1999, First Federal experienced an increase in noninterest expense of 20.8%, from $3.8 million in 1998 to $4.6 million in 1999. The increase was primarily attributed to professional consulting expenses, data processing, furniture and equipment expense and salaries and benefits. Stringent cost control and better utilization of resources continues to be a major focus at First Federal. Salaries and benefits increased 7.4% in 1999 compared to 26.0% in 1998. The larger increase in 1998 was due to branch expansion which took place. Occupancy and equipment costs increased 11.0% from the prior year. The increase is due to additional furniture purchased and the related depreciation costs. Data processing increased 33.9% and other expense increased 84.1% from the prior year. The majority of the increase in other expenses was in professional consulting. The increase in professional consulting expense was attributed to upgrading various computer systems for Year 2000 (Y2K) compliance, employee acquisition and training, and professional consulting for collection and repossession expenses. Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $964,000 in fiscal 1999 compared to $858,000 in fiscal 1998, an increase of $106,000, or 12.4%. Income taxes increased primarily as a result of the tax effect of higher income before taxes. Asset and Liability Management and Market Risk General. The principal market risk affecting the Company is interest-rate risk. The Company does not maintain a trading account and is not affected by foreign currency exchange rate risk or commodity price risk. The Company is subject to interest rate risk to the extent its interest-earning assets reprice differently than its interest-bearing liabilities. The Company reduces exposure to changes in market interest rates by managing asset and liability maturities and interest rates, primarily by reducing the effective maturity of assets through the use of adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities and adjustable rate loans and by extending funding maturities through the use of other borrowings such as FHLB Advances. Quantitative Aspects of Market Risk. As part of its efforts to monitor and manage interest rate risk, the Company uses the "net portfolio value" (NPV) methodology adopted by the OTS. This approach calculates the difference between the present value of expected cash flows from assets and liabilities, as well as cash flows from off balance sheet contracts, arising from an assumed 200 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates. Under OTS regulations, an institution's "normal" level of interest rate risk for this assumed change in interest rates is a decrease in the institution's NPV not exceeding 2% of assets. The Company's asset/liability management strategy sets limits on the change in NPV given certain changes in interest rates. The table presented here, as of June 30, 2000, is the Company's interest rate risk measured by changes in NPV for instantaneous parallel shifts in the yield curve, in 100 basis point increments, up and down 300 basis points. 8
Changes in NPV as % of Portfolio Interest Rates Portfolio Value Value of Assets In Basis Net ----------------------------- --------------------- Points NPV (Rate Shock) $Amount $Change %Change Ratio Change(1) ------------- ------- ------- ------- ----- --------- (Dollars in thousands) 300 $12,136 $(9,665) (44)% 5.89% (403) 200 15,380 (6,420) (29) 7.31 (261) 100 18,656 (3,144) (14) 8.67 (125) Static 21,800 9.92 (100) 24,666 2,866 13 11.00 108 (200) 27,453 5,652 26 12.01 209 (300) 31,674 9,874 45 13.51 359
(1) Expressed in basis points As illustrated in the table, the Company's NPV declines in a rising interest rate environment. Specifically, the table indicates that, at June 30, 2000, the Company's NPV was $21.8 million (or 10% of portfolio assets). Based upon the assumptions used, an immediate increase in market interest rates of 200 basis points would result in a $6.4 million or 29% decline in NPV and a 261 basis point or 26.3% decline in the Company's NPV ratio to 7.31%. This is within the Company's guidelines. In evaluating the exposure to interest rate risk, certain simplifications in analysis must be considered. For example, although assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or period to repricing, they may react differently to changes in market interest rates. In addition, the rates on some assets and liabilities may fluctuate before changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind. Further, if rates change, prepayments and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the table. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in case of an interest rate increase. Therefore, the actual effect of changing interest rates may differ from that presented in the foregoing table. The Board of Directors and management of the Company believe that certain factors afford the Company the ability to operate successfully despite its exposure to interest rate risk. The Company manages its interest rate risk by originating adjustable rate loans and purchasing adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities, by maintaining capital well in excess of regulatory requirements and by selling a portion of fixed rate one-to four-family real estate loans. The Company focuses lending efforts toward offering competitively priced adjustable rate loan products as an alternative to more traditional fixed rate mortgage loans. In addition, while the Company generally originates mortgage loans for its own portfolio, sales of fixed-rate first mortgage loans with maturities of 15 years or greater are currently undertaken to manage interest rate risk. These loans are currently classified as held for sale by the Company at origination. There were no loans held for sale at June 30, 2000. The Company retains the servicing on loans sold in the secondary market and, at June 30, 2000, $29.8 million in such loans were being serviced for others. The primary objective of the Company's investment strategy is to provide liquidity necessary to meet funding needs as well as address daily, cyclical and long-term changes in the asset/liability mix while contributing to profitability by providing a stable flow of dependable earnings. Generally, the Company invests funds among various categories of investments and maturities based on the Company's liquidity needs and to achieve the proper balance between the desire to minimize risk and maximize yield to fulfill the Company's asset/liability management policies. The Company's cost of funds responds to changes in interest rates due to the relatively short-term nature of its deposit portfolio. Consequently, the levels of short-term interest rates influence the results of operations. The Company offers a range of maturities on its deposit products at competitive rates and monitors the maturities on an ongoing basis. 9 Average Balances, Interest Rates and Yields This following table shows weighted average interest rates on loans, investments, deposits, other interest-bearing liabilities, and the interest rate spread and the net yield on weighted average interest-earning assets.

(1) Average outstanding balances include non-accruing loans. Interest on loans receivable includes fees. The inclusion of nonaccrual loans and fees does not have a material effect on either the average outstanding balance or the average yield. (2) Yields reflected have not been computed on a tax equivalent basis. (3) Yields computed using the average amortized cost for securities available for sale. (4) Net interest income divided by average interest earning assets. Asset Quality Total non-performing assets decreased to $290,000 at June 30, 2000 compared to $842,000 at June 30, 1999. The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets at June 30, 2000 was .13% compared to .39% at June 30, 1999. Included in non-performing assets at June 30, 2000 were $251,000 in non-accruing loans and $39,000 in repossessed assets. In addition to the non-performing assets listed above, as of June 30, 2000 and 1999, there was $4.4 million and $1.9 million, respectively, in net loans designated by the Bank as "watch loans" due to factors that may impact the ability of the borrowers to comply with loan repayment terms. Based on management's review as of June 30, 2000, $2.0 million of loans were classified as special mention, $1.9 million as substandard, $434,000 as doubtful and $3,000 as loss. As of June 30, 1999, $1.3 million were classified as special mention, $543,000 as substandard, $72,000 as doubtful and $46,000 as loss. 10 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities and sales and maturities of securities available for sale. While maturities of securities and scheduled amortization of loans and mortgage-backed securities are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The standard measure of liquidity for thrift institutions is the ratio of cash and eligible investments to a certain percentage of net withdrawable savings and borrowings due within one year. The minimum required ratio is currently set by OTS regulations at 4%, of which 1% must be comprised of short-term investments (i.e. generally with a term of less than one year). At June 30, 2000, the Bank's liquidity ratio was 7.03%, of which 3.25% was comprised of short-term investments. Year Ended June 30, 2000. During the year ended June 30, 2000 there was a net increase of $415,000 in cash and cash equivalents. Major sources of cash during the year were an increase in deposits of $2.7 million, and the proceeds from the sales of loans held for sale and the sale, call and maturity of securities provided $1.2 million and $4.6 million. Management continued to sell fixed rate first mortgage loans with maturities of 15 to 30 years in the secondary market to manage interest rate risk. Major uses of cash during the year which offset the sources of cash include funding an increase of $1.3 million in the loan portfolio and the purchase of $7.5 million in securities available for sale. Year Ended June 30, 1999. During the year ended June 30, 1999 there was a net increase of $429,000 in cash and cash equivalents. Major sources of cash during the year were an increase in deposits and borrowings of $5.1 million and 9.8 million, and the proceeds from the sales of loans held for sale and the sale, call and maturity of securities provided $14.4 million and $22.8 million. Management continued to sell fixed rate first mortgage loans with maturities of 15 to 30 years in the secondary market to manage interest rate risk. Major uses of cash during the year which offset the sources of cash included funding an increase of $14.3 million in the loan portfolio, purchases of $25.0 million in securities available for sale and originations of $14.3 million of loans to be sold in the secondary market. Year Ended June 30, 1998. During the year ended June 30, 1998 there was a net decrease of $12.7 million in cash and cash equivalents. Major sources of cash during the year were an increase in deposits of $9.1 million and proceeds from sales of loans held for sale provided $9.1 million. Management continued to sell fixed rate first mortgage loans with maturities of 15 to 30 years in the secondary market to manage interest rate risk. Major uses of cash during the year which offset the sources of cash included funding an increase of $26.0 million in the loan portfolio, purchases of $29.8 million in securities available for sale and originations of $9.0 million of loans to be sold in the secondary market. Borrowings may be used as a source of funds to offset reductions in other sources of funds such as deposits and to assist in asset/liability management. Management believes that a diversified blend of borrowings from the FHLB offers flexibility and is an important tool to be used in the balanced growth of the Company. As such, borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2000 consisted of advances from the FHLB totaling $64.2 million. Also, the Company had commitments to fund loan originations, unused lines of credit and standby lines of credit with borrowers of $12.0 million at June 30, 2000. In the opinion of management, the Company has sufficient cash flow and borrowing capacity to meet current and anticipated funding commitments. Pursuant to federal law, thrift institutions must meet a 4.00% core capital requirement and an 8.00% total risk-based capital to risk weighted assets requirement. At June 30, 2000, the Bank exceeded all fully phased in capital requirements. Core capital totaled $17.2 million, or 7.92% of adjusted total assets (as defined by regulation) and risk-based capital totaled $18.9 million, or 13.58% of risk-weighted assets (as defined by regulation). See Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding capital requirements applicable to the Bank. IMPACT OF INFLATION The financial statements and related data are in terms of historical dollars without considering changes in purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on performance than the general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or magnitude as the prices of goods and services. 11 Report of Independent Auditors Board of Directors and Shareholders FFW Corporation Wabash, Indiana We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of FFW Corporation as of June 30, 2000 and 1999 and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2000.

16 FFW Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2000, 1999, 1998 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include FFW Corporation (the Company), and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, First Federal Savings Bank of Wabash (the Bank) and FirstFed Financial of Wabash, Incorporated. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Nature of Business and Concentrations of Credit Risk: The primary source of income for the Company is the interest from commercial and residential real estate loans (see Note 13). Use of Estimates In Preparing Financial Statements: Preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period, as well as the disclosures provided. Areas involving the use of estimates and assumptions include the allowance for loan losses, fair values of securities and other financial instruments, determination and carrying value of impaired loans and intangible assets, the carrying value of loans held for sale, the value of mortgage servicing rights, the accrued liability for deferred compensation, the fair value of stock options, the realization of deferred tax assets and the determination of depreciation of premises and equipment. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates associated with the allowance for loan losses, the classification and carrying value of loans held for sale, the fair value of stock options and the fair value of securities and other financial instruments are particularly susceptible to material change in the near term. Cash Flow Reporting: For reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, due from financial institutions and interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions - short-term. Net cash flows are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions. Securities: Securities are classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized cost when management has the positive intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Securities are classified as available for sale when they might be sold before maturity. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported separately in shareholders' equity, net of tax. Securities are classified as trading when held for short term periods in anticipation of market gains, and are carried at fair value. Securities are written down to fair value when a decline in fair value is not temporary. Gains and losses on sales are determined using the amortized cost of the specific security sold. Interest income includes amortization of purchase premiums and discounts. Loans Held for Sale: Mortgage loans intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses are recognized in a valuation allowance by charges to income. Loans Receivable: Loans receivable are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of deferred loan fees and costs, the allowance for loan losses and charge-offs. Interest income is reported on the interest method and includes amortization of net deferred loan fees and costs over the loan term. Interest income is not reported when full loan repayment is in doubt, typically when payments are past due over 90 days. Payments received on such loans are reported as principal reductions. Allowance for Loan Losses: Because some loans may not be repaid in full, an allowance for loan losses is recorded. The allowance for loan losses is increased by a provision for loan losses charged to expense and decreased by charge-offs (net of recoveries). Estimating the risk of loss and the amount of loss on any loan is necessarily subjective. Accordingly, the allowance is maintained by management at a level considered adequate to cover losses that are currently anticipated. Management's periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current economic conditions. While management may periodically allocate portions of the allowance for specific problem loan situations, the whole allowance is available for any loan charge-offs that occur. 17 FFW Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2000, 1999, 1998 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Loans are considered impaired if full principal or interest payments are not anticipated in accordance with the contractual loan terms. Impaired loans are carried at the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or at the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated to impaired loans if the value of such loans is less than the unpaid balance. If these allocations cause the allowance for loan losses to require an increase, such increase is reported in the provision for loan losses. Commercial loans and mortgage loans secured by other properties are evaluated individually for impairment. Smaller-balance homogeneous loans such as residential first mortgage loans, are evaluated for impairment in total. When analysis of borrower operating results and financial condition indicates that underlying cash flows of the borrower's business are not adequate to meet debt service requirements, the loan is evaluated for impairment. Often this is associated with a delay or shortfall in payments of 60 days or more. Nonaccrual loans are often also considered impaired. Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible. Foreclosed Real Estate: Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value at acquisition, establishing a new cost basis. Any reduction to fair value from the carrying value of the related loan at the time of acquisition is accounted for as a loan loss and charged against the allowance for loan losses. Valuations are periodically performed by management and valuation allowances are adjusted through a charge to income for changes in fair value or estimated selling costs. Premises and Equipment: Asset cost is reported net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is calculated on the straight-line method over asset useful lives. These assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Intangible Assets: Intangible assets arising from the acquisition of the South Whitley Branch, on June 13, 1997, include goodwill and core deposit intangibles. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the assets acquired. Goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years. Core deposit intangibles are amortized on an accelerated basis over 10 years. As of June 30, 2000, unamortized goodwill totaled $998,000 and unamortized core deposit intangibles totaled $219,000. Income Taxes: Income tax expense is the sum of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Servicing Rights: Servicing rights represent both purchased rights and the allocated value of servicing rights retained on loans sold. Servicing rights are expensed in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. Impairment is evaluated based on the fair value of the rights, using groupings of the underlying loans as to interest rates and then, secondarily, as to geographic and prepayment characteristics. Any impairment of a grouping is reported as a valuation allowance. Employee Stock Ownership Plan: The Company accounts for its employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) under AICPA Statement of Position (SOP) 93-6. The cost of shares issued to the ESOP, but not yet allocated to participants, is presented as a reduction of shareholders' equity. Compensation expense is based on the market price of the shares committed to be released for allocation to participant accounts. The difference between the market price and the cost of shares committed to be released is adjusted to additional paid-in capital. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares reduce retained earnings; dividends on unearned ESOP shares reduce debt and accrued interest. Stock Compensation: Expense for employee compensation under stock option plans is based on Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion 25, with expense reported only if options are granted below market price at grant date. If applicable, disclosures of net income and earnings per common share are provided as if the fair value method of SFAS No. 123 were used for stock-based compensation. 18 FFW Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2000, 1999, 1998 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk: The Company, in the normal course of business, makes commitments to make loans which are not reflected in the financial statements. A summary of these commitments is disclosed in Note 12. Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes the net change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on securities available for sale, net of tax, which is also recognized as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Earnings and Dividends Per Common Share: Basic earnings per common share is based on the net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. ESOP shares are considered outstanding for earnings per common share calculations as they are committed to be released; unearned shares are not considered outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share shows the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock options. Earnings and dividends per common share are restated for all stock splits and dividends. Stock Split: Common share amounts and market values and price per share disclosures related to stock repurchase programs, stock-based compensation plans and earnings and dividends per share disclosures have been restated for the two-for-one stock split effected in the form of a 100% stock dividend which was declared November 25, 1997 and paid on December 31, 1997. Stock dividends in excess of 20% are reported by transferring the par value of the stock issued from retained earnings to common stock. Stock dividends for 20% or less are reported by transferring the market value, as of the ex-dividend date, of the stock issued from retained earnings to common stock and additional paid-in capital. Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the 1999 and 1998 financial statements were reclassified to conform with the 2000 presentation.

The gain recognized was the result of a pre-payment penalty and the recognition of unaccreted discount. The June 30, 1995 balance of mortgage-backed securities was reduced by $318,900 to reflect an other than temporary decline in the fair value of a security. Collateral for this security was multi-family mortgage obligations primarily located in Southern California. The decline in the fair value of the security was due to increased delinquency in the underlying loans and a decline in the cash reserve fund and losses incurred on foreclosed real estate. On April 29, 1998 this security was sold and a gain on sale of $264,028 was recognized from the previously written down balance.

As of June 30, 2000 and 1999, $0 and $423,126 were outstanding under this agreement. FHLB advances and the overdraft line of credit agreement are secured by all stock in the FHLB, qualifying first mortgage loans, government, agency and mortgage-backed securities. At June 30, 2000, collateral of approximately $104.4 million is pledged to the FHLB to secure advances outstanding. NOTE 9 - EMPLOYEE BENEFITS Employee Pension Plan: The pension plan is part of a noncontributory multi-employer defined-benefit pension plan covering substantially all employees. There is no separate actuarial valuation of plan benefits nor segregation of plan assets specifically for the Company. As of July 1, 1999, the latest actuarial valuation, plan assets exceeded the actuarially determined value of total vested benefits. The plan has reached its full funding limitation for Internal Revenue Code purposes and a full contribution is not required. As a result, other than administrative expenses, there was no pension expense for 2000, 1999 and 1998. 401(k) Plan: A retirement savings 401(k) plan covers full time employees 21 or older and have completed one year of service. Participants may defer up to 15% of compensation. The Company matches 50% of elective deferrals on the first 6% of the participants' compensation. Expenses under this plan were $39,000, $38,000, and $28,000 for 2000, 1999 and 1998. Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP): Employees with 1,000 hours of employment with the Bank and who have attained age 21 are eligible to participate in the ESOP. The ESOP borrowed $591,500 from the Company to purchase 118,300 shares of the common stock issued in the conversion at $5 per share. The loan was repaid principally from the Bank's discretionary contributions to the ESOP over seven years, and was paid off as of December 31, 1999. Shares purchased by the ESOP were held in suspense until allocated to participants as the loan was repaid. As of June 30, 2000, all ESOP shares had been allocated. ESOP expense related to shares allocated as the loan was repaid was $122,000, $245,000 and $269,000 for 2000, 1999 and 1998. Contributions to the ESOP for loan repayment were $52,000, $99,000 and $93,000 for 2000, 1999 and 1998. For 2000, 8,560 shares with an average fair value of $12.34 per share, were committed to be released. For 1999 and 1998, 17,117 shares with an average fair value of $15.74 and $17.31 per share, were committed to be released. Between January 1, 2000 and June 30, 2000 the Bank contributed an additional $125,000 to purchase 10,000 shares for the ESOP, resulting in additional ESOP expense in 2000. As of June 30, 2000 these shares were allocated to eligible employees participating in the ESOP plan. Contributions to the ESOP and shares released from suspense proportional to repayment of the ESOP loan are allocated among ESOP participants on the basis of compensation. Benefits are 100% vested after five years of service including credit for years of service prior to July 1, 1992. Prior to five years of credited service, a participant who terminates employment for reasons other than death, normal retirement, or disability does not receive any ESOP benefit. Forfeitures are reallocated among remaining participating employees, in the same proportion as contributions. 23 FFW Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2000, 1999, 1998 NOTE 9 - EMPLOYEE BENEFITS (continued) Benefits are payable in stock or cash upon termination of employment. The Company's contributions to the ESOP are not fixed, so benefits payable under the ESOP cannot be estimated. ESOP shares as of June 30 were:

Stock Option Plan: The 1992 Stock Option and Incentive Plan authorizes options of 169,000 shares of common stock. During 1999, the Company registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission the 1999 Omnibus Incentive Plan. This plan authorizes options, restricted stock and SARs of 142,000 shares of common stock. For both plans when options are granted, the option price is at least 100% of the market value of common stock on the date of grant, and the option term cannot exceed 10 years. Options awarded may be exercised at a rate of 25% per year. No compensation expense was recognized for stock options for 2000, 1999 and 1998. SFAS No. 123 requires proforma disclosures for companies that do not adopt its fair value accounting method for stock-based employee compensation. Accordingly, the following proforma information presents earnings per common share had the fair value method been used to measure compensation cost for stock option plans. The fair value of options granted during 2000 and 1999 were estimated using the following weighted average information: risk-free interest rate of 5.22% and 5.25%, expected life of 10 years and 10 years, expected volatility of stock price of .29 and .31 and expected dividends of 3.59% and 3.11% per year. 2000 1999 ---------- ----------- Net income as reported $2,270,861 $2,111,055 Proforma net income 2,254,165 2,103,759 Basic earnings per share as reported 1.60 1.48 Diluted earnings per share as reported 1.57 1.46 Proforma basic earnings per share 1.58 1.47 Proforma diluted earnings per share 1.56 1.45 In future years, the proforma effect of not applying this standard is expected to increase as additional options are granted. Stock option plans are used to reward employees and provide them with an additional equity interest. Options are issued for 10-year periods with varying vesting periods.

The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding at June 30, 2000 was approximately six years. Stock options exercisable at June 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998 totaled 41,146, 50,063 and 59,788 at a weighted average exercise price of $8.63, $7.10 and $5.79. As of June 30, 2000, 121,000 options remain available for future grants. Deferred Compensation: The Company has a deferred compensation plan for certain directors of the Company and a salary continuation plan for a Bank executive. The Company/Bank is obligated to pay each such individual or beneficiaries the accumulated contributions plus interest credited for the deferred compensation plan and a lump sum payment for the salary continuation plan, beginning with the individual's termination of service. A deferred compensation liability of $18,000 and $245,000 at June 30, 2000 and 1999 has been accrued for these obligations. Life insurance on the participants was purchased. The cash surrender value of such insurance was $5,000 and $234,000 at June 30, 2000 and 1999 and is included in other assets. The expense for these plans was $22,000 for 2000, and $36,000 for 1999 and 1998.

Federal income tax laws provided savings banks with additional bad debt deductions through 1987, totaling $1,156,000 for the Bank. Accounting standards do not require a deferred tax liability to be recorded on this amount, which liability otherwise would total $393,000 at June 30, 2000 and 1999. If the Bank was liquidated or otherwise ceased to be a bank or if tax laws were to change, the $393,000 would be recorded as expense. NOTE 11 - REGULATORY MATTERS The Bank is subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors, and the regulators can lower classifications in certain cases. Failure to meet various capital requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on the financial statements. 26 FFW CORPORATION Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE 11 - REGULATORY MATTERS (continued) The prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications, including well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If only adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and plans for capital restoration are required. The Bank's actual capital and required capital amounts and ratios are presented below:

Regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision limit the amount of dividends and other capital distributions that may be paid by a savings institution without prior approval of the Office of Thrift Supervision. Under the regulations, the Bank can make without application to the OTS (but only after filing a notification to the OTS), distributions during a calendar year up to 100% of its retained net income for the calendar year-to-date plus retained net income for the previous two calendar years (less any dividends previously paid) as long as the Bank would remain adequately, as defined in the office of Thrift Supervision prompt corrective action regulations, following the proposed distribution. Accordingly, at June 30, 2000, approximately $3,633,000 of the Bank's retained earnings was potentially available for distribution to the Company. 27 FFW CORPORATION Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE 12 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND CONTINGENCIES Various outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities are not reflected in the financial statements. Commitments to make loans at June 30 were as follows:
2 0 0 0 1 9 9 9 ------------------------- ----------------------------- Fixed Variable Fixed Variable Rate Rate Rate Rate -------- ----------- ---------- ----------- Commitments to make loans $294,500 $ 356,000 $ 211,000 $ 270,000 Unused lines of credit -- 10,128,000 -- 9,718,000 Standby letters of credit -- 1,195,000 -- 1,671,000 -------- ----------- ---------- ----------- $294,500 $11,679,000 $ 211,000 $11,659,000
Fixed rate loan commitments at June 30, 2000 were at current rates, ranging primarily from 9.25% to 11.00%. Variable rate loan commitments, unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit at June 30, 2000 were at current rates ranging from 8.25% to 9.75% for loan commitments, 8.50% to 12.00% for unused lines of credit and primarily at the national prime rate of interest plus 100 to 300 basis points for standby letters of credit. Since commitments to make loans and to fund unused lines of credit, loans in process and standby letters of credit may expire without being used, the amounts do not necessarily represent future cash commitments. In addition, commitments are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. The maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party is the contractual amount of these instruments. The same credit policy is used to make such commitments as is used for loans receivable. Under employment agreements with one of its officers, certain events leading to separation from the Company could result in cash payments totaling $270,000. The Company and the Bank are subject to certain claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operation of the Company. The Bank has a 3% limited partner interest in a limited partnership formed to construct, own and manage affordable housing projects. The Bank is one of 13 investors. As of June 30, 2000, the Bank had invested $675,000 and had recorded equity in the operating loss of the limited partnership of $65,000, $79,000 and $45,000 for the years ended June 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998. At June 30, 2000 and 1999, the obligation due to the limited partnership was $75,000 and $75,000. The Bank receives 3% of the eligible tax credits. For the years ended June 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Bank received approximately $88,000, $65,000 and $15,000 in tax credits. NOTE 13 - SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK Real estate and consumer loans, including automobile, home equity and improvement, manufactured home and other consumer loans are granted primarily in Wabash, Kosciusko and Whitley counties. Loans secured by one to four family residential real estate mortgages make up 49% of the loan portfolio. The Company also sells loans and services loans for secondary market agencies. The policy for collateral on mortgage loans allows borrowings up to 95% of the appraised value of the property as established by appraisers approved by the Company's Board of Directors, if private mortgage insurance is obtained to reduce the Company's exposure to or below the 80% loan-to-value level. Loan-to-value percentages and documentation guidelines are designed to protect the Company's interest in the collateral as well as to comply with guidelines for sale in the secondary market. 28 FFW CORPORATION Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998 NOTE 14 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Certain directors, executive officers and principal shareholders of the Company, including associates of such persons, are loan customers.

Items which are not financial instruments are not included.

For purposes of the above disclosures of estimated fair value, the following assumptions were used as of June 30, 2000 and 1999. The estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, Federal Home Loan Bank stock, accrued interest receivable and non-interest-bearing deposits is considered to approximate cost. The estimated fair value for securities available for sale is based on quoted market values for the individual securities or for equivalent securities. The estimated fair value for loans receivable, net, is based on estimates of the rate the Bank would charge for similar loans at June 30, 2000 and 1999 applied for the time period until the loans are assumed to reprice or be paid. The estimated fair value for interest-bearing deposits as well as borrowings is based on estimates of the rate the Bank would pay on such liabilities at June 30, 2000 and 1999, applied for the time period until maturity. While these estimates of fair value are based on management's judgment of the most appropriate factors, there is no assurance that were the Company to have disposed of such items at June 30, 2000 and 1999, the estimated fair values would necessarily have been achieved at that date, since market values may differ depending on various circumstances. The estimated fair values at June 30, 2000 and 1999 should not necessarily be considered to apply to subsequent dates. In addition, other assets and liabilities of the Company that are not defined as financial instruments are not included in the above disclosures, such as premises and equipment. Also, non-financial instruments typically not recognized in financial statements nevertheless may have value but are not included in the above disclosures. These include, among other items, the estimated earnings power of core deposit accounts, the trained work force, customer goodwill and similar items. 32 Directors and Officers FFW CORPORATION Officers Wayne W.
