DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS - -------------------------------- General SGV Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") completed its initial public offering of common stock on June 28, 1995, in connection with the conversion of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of San Gabriel Valley (the "Association") from the mutual to stock form of ownership. The Company utilized approximately 50% of the net proceeds of the initial public offering to acquire all of the issued and outstanding stock of the Association. The Company is headquartered in West Covina, California and its principal business currently consists of the operations of its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Federal Savings and Loan Association of San Gabriel Valley. The Company's only significant assets, other than its investment in the capital stock of the Association and a loan to the Association's ESOP, are cash, investments and mortgage-backed securities. Operational activity of the Savings and Loan Association will hereafter be referred to as "Association," where applicable. The Company had no operations prior to June 28, 1995, and accordingly, the results of operations prior to such date reflect only those of the Association and its subsidiary. The Company, as a savings and loan holding company, and the Association are subject to regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision (the "OTS"), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The principal business of the Association is attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing those deposits, together with funds generated from operations and borrowings, primarily in one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. To a lesser extent, the Association engages in secondary market activities and invests in multi-family, commercial real estate, construction, land and consumer loans. Loan sales come from loans held in the Association's portfolio designated as being held for sale or originated during the period and being so designated. The Association retains virtually all the servicing rights of loans sold. The Association's revenues are derived principally from interest on its mortgage loans, and to a lesser extent, interest and dividends on its investment and mortgage-backed securities, income from loan servicing, and fee income generated from deposit accounts. The Association's primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (the FHLB) and, to a lesser extent, proceeds from the sale of loans. Market Area and Competition The Association conducts business from its administrative branch office located in West Covina, California and its seven other offices located in Covina, Hacienda Heights, La Verne, City of Industry, Arcadia, and Duarte, all of which are located in the eastern part of the greater Los Angeles metropolitan area. The Association is currently seeking to expand its market share through the acquisition of additional branch offices in its current market area. If successful, the Association believes it would increase total deposits by approximately $60 million or 20%. There can be no assurance, however, the Association will be successful. The Association has been and continues to be a community-oriented savings institution, which primarily originates one- to four-family residential mortgage loans within its primary market area. The Association's 1 4 deposit gathering is concentrated in the communities surrounding its offices in eastern Los Angeles county. The Association makes loans secured by deeds of trust in portions of eastern Los Angeles, western San Bernardino and Riverside, and Orange counties. The Los Angeles metropolitan area is a highly competitive market. The Association faces significant competition both in making loans and in attracting deposits. The Association's share of deposits and loan originations in the Los Angeles metropolitan area amounts to less than one percent. The Association faces direct competition from a significant number of financial institutions operating in its market area, many with a statewide or regional presence and in some cases a national presence. Many of these financial institutions are significantly larger and have greater financial resources than the Association. The Association's competition for loans comes principally from commercial banks, savings and loan associations, mortgage banking companies, credit unions and insurance companies. Its most direct competition for deposits has historically come from savings and loan associations and commercial banks. In addition, the Association faces increasing competition for deposits from non-bank institutions such as brokerage firms and insurance companies in such areas as short-term money market funds, corporate and government securities funds, mutual funds and annuities. Competition may also increase as a result of the lifting of restrictions on the interstate operations of financial institutions. Lending Activities LOAN PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION. The Association's loan portfolio consists primarily of conventional first mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences. At June 30, 1998, the Association had total loans outstanding of $297.6 million, of which $247.1 million were one- to four-family, owner-occupied residential mortgage loans, or 83.1% of the Association's total loans. The remainder of the portfolio consists of $29.5 million of multi-family mortgage loans, or 9.9% of total loans; $11.9 million of commercial real estate loans, or 4.0% of total loans; and consumer loans of $9.0 million or 3.0% of total loans. The Association had $391,000 in loans held for sale as of June 30, 1998. At that same date, 78.9% of the Association's mortgage loans had adjustable interest rates. Of the Association's adjustable-rate mortgage loans, 21.7% are indexed to the one-year Constant Maturity Treasury ("CMT") Index and 78.0% are indexed to the 11th District Cost of Funds Index ("COFI"). The COFI is a lagging market index and therefore may adjust more slowly than the cost of the Association's interest-bearing liabilities. As the determination of the COFI becomes concentrated in fewer institutions, funding decisions by a relatively few large institutions could potentially further reduce the correlation of COFI to changes in general market interest rates and the Company's cost of funds. The types of loans that the Association may originate are subject to federal and state law and regulations. Interest rates charged by the Association on loans are affected by the demand for such loans and the supply of money available for lending purposes and the rates offered by competitors. These factors are, in turn, affected by, among other things, economic conditions, monetary policies of the federal government, including the Federal Reserve Board, and legislative tax policies. The following table sets forth the composition of the Association's loan portfolio in dollar amounts and as a percentage of the portfolio at the dates indicated. 2 5

ORIGINATION, SALE, SERVICING AND PURCHASE OF LOANS. The Association's mortgage lending activities are conducted primarily by commissioned loan representatives and through its eight branch offices. The Association originates both adjustable-rate and fixed-rate mortgage loans. The Association's ability to originate loans is dependent upon the relative customer demand for fixed-rate or adjustable-rate mortgage loans, which is affected by the current and expected future level of interest rates. It is the general policy of the Association to sell the majority of the fixed-rate mortgage loans that it originates. The Association may also sell the adjustable-rate mortgage loans that it originates. The Association utilizes forward commitments to hedge the risks associated with a change in interest rates between origination and sale of loans. At June 30, 1998, the Association had one forward commitment of $1.0 million. The Association retains virtually all servicing of the loans sold. See "Loan Servicing." The Association recognizes, at the time of sale, the cash gain or loss on the sale of the loans sold. At June 30, 1998, there was $391,000 in fixed-rate mortgage loans categorized as held for sale. From time to time, the Association has purchased loans originated by other institutions based upon the Association's investment needs and market opportunities. During the year ended June 30, 1998, the Association purchased $29.9 million of one- to four-family mortgage loans with adjustable interest rates indexed primarily to COFI which are secured by principal properties located in Southern California. The Association also purchased $10.7 million of home equity lines of credit with adjustable interest rates indexed to COFI and LIBOR. These loans are considered consumer loans as they were underwritten primarily based upon the credit worthiness of the customer with a trust deed filed as an abundance of caution. The Association has purchased loans during the past two years as a supplement to its internal origination process in order to meet internal goals. The Association has reviewed each loan it purchases to ensure it meets the Association's underwriting guidelines. The loans were purchased in several transactions consummated during the year ended June 30, 1998. 5 8
The following table sets forth the Association's loan originations, purchases, sales and principal repayments for the periods indicated: FOR THE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, ---------------------------------------- 1998 1997 1996 ------------ ------------ ---------- (IN THOUSANDS) Gross loans (1): Beginning balance $ 286,101 $ 257,734 $ 218,191 Loans originated: One- to four-family (2) 46,787 33,108 31,110 Multi-family 3,977 3,242 1,163 Commercial 3,540 160 70 ------------ ------------ ------------- Total loans originated 54,304 36,510 32,343 Loans purchased: Mortgage loans 29,941 33,320 48,297 Consumer loans 10,682 - - ------------ ------------ ------------- Total 381,028 327,564 298,831 Less: Principal repayments 61,019 33,216 25,029 Sales of loans 19,526 5,644 13,183 Transfer to REO 2,928 2,603 2,885 ------------ ------------ ------------- Total loans 297,555 286,101 257,734 Loans held for sale 391 230 723 ------------ ------------ ------------- Ending balance, loans held for investment $ 297,164 $ 285,871 $ 257,011 ============ ============ =============
- -------------------------------------- (1) Gross loans includes loans receivable held for investment and loans held for sale, net of deferred loan fees, undisbursed loan funds and unamortized premiums and discounts. (2) Consumer loans originated are included in one- to four-family loans. 6 9 ONE- TO FOUR-FAMILY MORTGAGE LENDING. The Association offers both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences located in the Association's primary market area, with maturities up to forty years. Substantially all of such loans are secured by property located in the Association's primary market area. Loan originations are generally obtained from the Association's commissioned loan representatives and their contacts with the local real estate industry, existing or past customers, and members of the local communities. At June 30, 1998, the Association's total loans outstanding were $297.6 million, of which $247.1 million or 83.1% were one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. Of the one-to four-family residential mortgage loans outstanding at that date, 22.0% were fixed-rate loans, and 78.0% were adjustable-rate mortgage loans. The Association's adjustable-rate mortgage loans are generally indexed to COFI and the CMT. The Association currently offers a number of adjustable-rate mortgage loan programs with interest rates which adjust monthly, semi-annually, or annually. A portion of the Association's adjustable-rate mortgage loans have introductory terms of three or five years and at the end of such period will adjust either monthly or annually according to their terms. The Association's adjustable-rate mortgage loans generally provide for periodic and overall caps on the increase or decrease in interest rate at any adjustment date and over the life of the loan. At June 30, 1998, approximately $500,000 of the Association's one- to four-family adjustable-rate mortgage loans had interest rates that were between 0 to 200 basis points below their lifetime caps, $52.1 million that were between 200 to 400 basis points below their lifetime caps, with the remainder having interest rates that were more than 400 basis points below their lifetime caps. The Association currently has $78.2 million in mortgage loans that may be subject to negative amortization. The negative amortization is currently capped at up to 115% of the original loan amount. Negative amortization involves a greater risk to the Association because during a period of high interest rates, the loan principal may increase above the amount originally advanced. However, the Association believes that the risk of default may be reduced by negative amortization caps, underwriting criteria and the stability provided by payment schedules. Of the Association's one- to four-family mortgage loans, $44.9 million, or 18.2%, were secured by non-owner-occupied residences. Loans secured by non-owner-occupied properties are generally considered to involve a higher degree of credit risk than loans secured by owner-occupied properties because payment is generally dependent upon the property producing sufficient income to cover debt service and any operating expenses. The Association's policy is to originate one- to four-family residential mortgage loans in amounts up to 80% of the lower of the appraised value or the selling price of the property securing the loan and up to 95% of the appraised value or selling price if private mortgage insurance is obtained. The Association currently has a limited program which is designed to promote home ownership and allows potential borrowers the ability to receive a mortgage loan with loan-to-values up to 100% with no private mortgage insurance. This program is capped at $1 million in loans outstanding. Mortgage loans originated by the Association generally include due-on-sale clauses, which provide the Association with the contractual right to deem the loan immediately due and payable in the event the borrower transfers ownership of the property without the Association's consent. Due-on-sale clauses are an important means of adjusting the 7 10 rates on the Association's fixed-rate mortgage loan portfolio and the Association has generally exercised its rights under theseclauses. MULTI-FAMILY LENDING. The Association originates multi-family mortgage loans generally secured by five to thirty-six unit apartment buildings located in the Association's primary market area. As a result of uncertain market conditions in its primary market area, the Association currently originates multi-family loans on a limited and highly selective basis. In reaching its decision on whether to make a multi-family loan, the Association considers the qualifications of the borrower as well as the underlying property. Some of the factors to be considered are: the net operating income of the mortgaged premises before debt service and depreciation; the debt service ratio (the ratio of net earnings to debt service); and the ratio of loan amount to appraised value. Pursuant to the Association's current underwriting policies, a multi-family adjustable-rate mortgage loan may only be made in an amount up to 75% of the appraised value of the underlying property to a maximum amount of $750,000. Subsequent declines in the real estate values in the Association's primary market area have resulted in some increase in the loan-to-value ratio on some mortgage loans. In addition, the Association generally requires a minimum debt service ratio of 115%. Properties securing a loan are appraised by an independent appraiser and title insurance is required on all loans. The Association's multi-family loan portfolio at June 30, 1998 totaled $29.5 million. When evaluating the qualifications of the borrower for a multi-family loan, the Association considers the financial resources and income level of the borrower, the borrower's experience in owning or managing similar property, and the Association's lending experience with the borrower. The Association's underwriting policies require that the borrower be able to demonstrate strong management skills and the ability to maintain the property from current rental income. The borrower is required to presen evidence of the ability to repay the mortgage and a history of making mortgage payments on a timely basis. In making its assessment of the creditworthiness of the borrower, the Association generally reviews the financial statements, employment and credit history of the borrower, as well as other related documentation. The Association's largest multi-family loan at June 30, 1998, had an outstanding balance of $1.1 million, was current at that date and is secured by a 22-unit apartment complex. The Association may purchase multi-family loans from other financial institutions. As part of the review process, the loans being purchased are appraised and must meet the same underwriting standards as loans processed internally. During the year ended June 30, 1998, the Association purchased $1.1 million of multi-family loans from another financial institution. Loans secured by apartment buildings and other multi-family residential properties are generally larger and involve a greater degree of risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. Because payments on loans secured by multi-family properties are often dependent on successful operation or management of the properties, repayment of such loans may be subject to a greater extent to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. The Association seeks to minimize these risks through its underwriting policies, which require such loans to be qualified at origination on the basis of the property's income and debt coverage ratio. 8 11 COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE LENDING. The Association originates commercial real estate loans that are generally secured by properties used for business purposes such as small office buildings or retail facilities located in the Association's primary market area. The Association's underwriting procedures provide that commercial real estate loans be made in amounts up to the lesser of 75% of the appraised value of the property, or at the Association's current loans-to-one borrower limit. These loans may be made with terms up to thirty years for adjustable-rate loans and are indexed to CMT or COFI. The Association's underwriting standards and procedures are similar to those applicable to its multi-family loans, whereby the Association considers the net operating income of the property and the borrower's expertise, credit history and profitability. The Association has generally required that the properties securing commercial real estate loans have debt service coverage ratios of at least 115%. The largest commercial real estate loan in the Association's portfolio at June 30, 1998, had an outstanding balance of $1.0 million, was current at that date and is secured by a mini-storage warehouse. At June 30, 1998, the Association's commercial real estate loan portfolio was $11.9 million or 3.0% of total loans. The Association currently originates commercial real estate loans on a limited and highly selective basis in its primary market area. Loans secured by commercial real estate properties, like multi-family loans, are generally larger and involve a greater degree of risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. Because payments on loans secured by commercial real estate properties are often dependent on successful operation or management of the properties, repayment of such loans may be subject to a greater extent to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. The Association seeks to minimize these risks through its underwriting standards, which require such loans to be qualified on the basis of the property's income and debt service ratio. CONSTRUCTION AND LAND LENDING. The Association has in the past originated loans for the acquisition and development of property to contractors and individuals in its primary market area. The Association's construction loans primarily have been made to finance the construction of one- to four-family, owner-occupied residential properties. These loans were primarily adjustable-rate loans with maturities of one year or less. The Association is not currently originating construction and land loans but may in the future depending on market conditions. At June 30, 1998, the Association had no construction or land loans outstanding. Construction and land financing is generally considered to involve a higher degree of credit risk than long-term financing on improved, owner-occupied real estate. Risk of loss on a construction loan is dependent largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the property's value at completion of construction or development compared to the estimated cost (including interest) of construction. If the estimate of value proves to be inaccurate, the Association may be confronted with a project, when completed, having a value which is insufficient to assure full repayment. CONSUMER LENDING. The Association originates consumer loans such as lines of credit and loans secured by savings accounts. The total amount comprising these two product types is less than 0.2% of the Association's loan portfolio. In this fiscal year, the Association purchased a portfolio of home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) from another financial institution which were primarily approved based upon the credit worthiness of the borrower and also had a lien 9 12 placed on the borrower's property, usually as a second lien. The loan-to-values of this portfolio of loans generally were in excess of 100%. Loans which met the Association's underwriting requirements were selected for purchase. The HELOCs have interest rates indexed primarily to COFI and LIBOR, with margins of 9.95% and adjust monthly. The maximum lines granted were generally for $25,000. The borrower is generally allowed to draw on the line of credit for a period of ten year to fifteen years after which time the loan is converted to fixed term loan with no further access to the line. The Association's HELOC portfolio of $8.5 million represents approximately 2.9% of its total loan portfolio. The Association's HELOC portfolio has a higher degree of credit risk than loans secured by real estate property with loan-to-values less than 70% as the payment as to interest and principal is generally dependent upon the capacity of the borrower and not upon the collateral. For loans which have become non-accrual, the Association would generally not initiate foreclosure proceedings on any property which has been determined to have a current combined loan-to-value in excess of 100%. Loans in this category would generally be charged-off although, in certain circumstances, collection efforts may continue. The Association has set aside general valuation allowances which management believes reflect the risk of the portfolio. If future loss experience or other factors change management's expectations, management will adjust the general valuation allowance to reflect such expectations. LOAN SERVICING. The Association also services mortgage loans for others. All of the loans currently being serviced for others are loans which have been sold by the Association. Loan servicing includes collecting and remitting loan payments, accounting for principal and interest, making inspections as required of mortgaged premises, contacting delinquent mortgagors, supervising foreclosures and property dispositions in the event of unremedied defaults, making certain insurance and tax payments on behalf of the borrowers and generally administering the loans. At June 30, 1998, the Association was servicing $99.7 million of loans for others. DELINQUENCIES AND CLASSIFIED ASSETS. The Board of Directors performs a monthly review of all delinquent loans ninety days or more past due. In addition, management reviews on an ongoing basis all loans 15 or more days delinquent. The procedures taken by the Association with respect to delinquencies vary depending on the nature of the loan and period of delinquency. When a borrower fails to make a required payment on a loan, the Association takes a number of steps to have the borrower cure the delinquency and restore the loan to current status. The Association generally sends the borrower a written notice of non-payment after the loan is first past due. In the event payment is not then received, additional letters and phone calls generally are made. If the loan is still not brought current and it becomes necessary for the Association to take legal action, which typically occurs after a loan is delinquent at least 30 days or more, the Association will commence foreclosure proceedings against any real property that secures the loan. If a foreclosure action is instituted and the loan is not brought current, paid in full, or refinanced before the foreclosure sale, the real property securing the loan generally is sold at foreclosure. Federal regulations and the Association's Classification of Assets Policy require that the Association utilize an internal asset classification system as a means of reporting problem and 10 13 potential problem assets. The Association has incorporated the OTS internal asset classifications as a part of its credit monitoring system. The Association currently classifies problem and potential problem assets as "Substandard," "Doubtful," or "Loss" assets. 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 insured institution 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. Assets which do not currently expose the insured institution to sufficient risk to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories but possess weaknesses are required to be designated "Special Mention." When an insured institution classifies one or more assets, or portions thereof, as Substandard or Doubtful, it is required to establish a general valuation allowance for loan losses in an amount deemed prudent by management. General valuation 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 an insured institution classifies one or more assets, or portions thereof, as "Loss," it is required either to establish a specific allowance for losses equal to 100% of the amount of the asset so classified or to charge off such amount. A savings institution's determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by the OTS which can order the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances. The OTS, in conjunction with the other federal banking agencies, adopted an interagency policy statement on the allowance for loan and lease losses. The policy statement provides guidance for financial institutions on both the responsibilities of management for the assessment and establishment of adequate allowances and guidance for banking agency examiners to use in determining the adequacy of general valuation guidelines. Generally, the policy statement recommends that management has analyzed all significant factors that affect the collectibility of the portfolio in a reasonable manner; and that management has established acceptable allowance evaluation processes that meet the objectives set forth in the policy statement. As a result of the declines in local and regional real estate market values and the significant losses experienced by many financial institutions, there has been a greater level of scrutiny by regulatory authorities of the loan portfolios of financial institutions undertaken as part of the examination of institutions by the OTS and the FDIC. While the Association believes that it has established an adequate allowance for loan losses, there can be no assurance that regulators, in reviewing the Association's loan portfolio, will not request the Association to materially increase at that time its allowance for loan losses, thereby negatively affecting the Association's financial condition and earnings at that time. Although management believes that adequate specific and general loan loss allowances have been established, actual losses are dependent upon future events and, as such, further additions to the level of specific and general loan loss allowances may become necessary. 11 14 The Association's Internal Asset Review Committee reviews and classifies the Association's assets monthly and reports the results of its review to the Board of Directors. The Association classifies assets in accordance with the management guidelines described above. Real Estate Owned ("REO") is classified as Substandard. At June 30, 1998, the Association had $3.0 million of assets classified as Special Mention, $6.3 million of assets classified as Substandard, with no assets classified as Doubtful or as Loss. Loans classified as Special Mention are a result of past delinquencies or other identifiable weaknesses. At June 30, 1998, the largest loan classified as Special Mention had a loan balance of $843,000. The Association generally requires appraisals on an annual basis on foreclosed properties and, to the extent necessary, on impaired loans. The Association conducts external inspections on foreclosed properties and certain other properties as deemed necessary. 12 15

13 16 NON-ACCRUAL AND PAST-DUE LOANS. The following table sets forth information regarding non-accrual loans, troubled-debt restructurings and REO. There were three troubled-debt restructured loans within the meaning of SFAS 15, ACCOUNTING BY DEBTORS AND CREDITORS FOR TROUBLED DEBT RESTRUCTURINGS, and 10 REO properties at June 30, 1998. It is the policy of the Association to cease accruing interest on loans 90 days or more past due. For the years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively, the amount of interest income that would have been recognized on nonaccrual loans if such loans had continued to perform in accordance with their contractual terms was $101,000, $77,000, $118,000, $126,000 and $54,000, none of which was recognized. For the same periods, the amount of interest income recognized on troubled debt restructurings was $55,000, $55,000, $58,000, $55,000 and $16,000, respectively.

(2) Non-performing assets consist of non-performing loans and REO. Non-performing loans consist of non-accrual loans. (3) REO balances are shown net of related loss allowances. 14 17 ALLOWANCE FOR ESTIMATED LOAN LOSSES. The allowance for estimated loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on management's evaluation of the risks inherent in its loan portfolio and the general economy. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at an amount management considers adequate to cover estimated losses in loans receivable which are deemed probable and estimable. The allowance is based upon a number of factors, including current economic conditions, actual loss experience and industry trends. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Association's allowance for estimated loan losses. Such agencies may require the Association to make additional provisions for estimated loan losses based upon judgments different from those of management. As of June 30, 1998, the Association's allowance for estimated loan losses was 0.48% of gross loans as compared to 0.44% as of June 30, 1997. The Association had non-accrual loans of $1.9 million and $1.7 million at June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1997, respectively. The Association will continue to monitor and modify its allowances for loan losses as conditions dictate. The Company considers a loan impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all contractual principal and interest payments under the terms of the loan agreement. Loans are evaluated for impairment as part of the Company's normal internal asset review process. The Company evaluates all loans in its portfolio on an individual basis with the exception of one- to four-family residential mortgage loans and consumer lines of credit which are evaluated on a collective basis. Also, loans which have delays in payments of less than four months are not necessarily considered impaired unless other factors apply to the loans. The accrual of interest income on impaired loans is discontinued when, in management's opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due. When the interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received. Where impairment is considered permanent, a charge-off is recorded; where impairment is considered temporary, an allowance is established. Impaired loans, which are performing under the contractual terms, are reported as performing loans, and cash payments are allocated to principal and interest in accordance with the terms of the loan. At June 30, 1998, the Company had classified $569,000 of its loans as impaired with $100,000 in specific reserves as determined in accordance with SFAS No. 114, ACCOUNTING BY CREDITORS FOR IMPAIRMENT OF A LOAN, as amended by SFAS No. 118, ACCOUNTING BY CREDITORS FOR IMPAIRMENT OF A LOAN - INCOME RECOGNITION AND DISCLOSURES. At June 30, 1997, the Company had classified $530,000 of its loans as impaired with $100,000 in specific reserves. In addition, the Company has $1.3 million and $1.7 million at June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, in impaired loans which were collectively evaluated for impairment with no specific reserves set aside. The average recorded investment in impaired loans, inclusive of those evaluated collectively, during the years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996 was approximately $2.9 million, $1.6 million, and $2.4 million, respectively. Interest income on impaired loans of $28,000, $28,000, and $31,000 was recognized for cash payments received in the years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996. 15 18

17 20 REAL ESTATE OWNED. At June 30, 1998, the Association had $1,902,000 of REO, net of reserves as compared to $1,150,000 of REO, net of reserves at June 30, 1997. The $752,000 increase was due primarily to the foreclosure of higher average balance REOs during the year ended June 30, 1998. If the Association acquires any REO, it is initially recorded at the lower of the recorded investment in the loan or the fair value of the related assets at the date of foreclosure, less costs to sell. Thereafter, if there is a further deterioration in value, the Association provides for a specific valuation allowance and charges operations for the diminution in value. It is the policy of the Association to obtain an appraisal on all real estate acquired through foreclosure at the time of possession. INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES 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, certificates of deposit of insured banks and savings institutions, 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 fund whose assets conform to the investments that a federally chartered savings institution is otherwise authorized to make directly. Additionally, the Association must maintain minimum levels of investments that qualify as liquid assets under OTS regulations. See "Regulation - Federal Savings Institution Regulation - Liquidity." Historically, the Association has maintained liquid assets above the minimum OTS requirements and at a level considered to be adequate to meet its normal daily activities. The investment policy of the Company as established by the Board of Directors attempts to provide and maintain liquidity, generate a favorable return on investments without incurring undue interest rate and credit risk, and complement the Company's lending activities. Specifically, the Company's policies generally limit investments to government and federal agency-backed securities and other non-government guaranteed securities, including corporate debt obligations, that are investment grade. The Company's policies provide the authority to invest in marketable equity securities meeting the Company's guidelines and in mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by the U.S. government and agencies thereof and other financial institutions. The Company's policies provide that all investment purchases must be approved by two officers (either a Senior Vice President, Executive Vice President or the President) and be ratified by the Board of Directors. At June 30, 1998, the Company had federal funds sold and other short-term investments, investment securities and mortgage-backed securities in the aggregate amount of $94.7 million with a market value of $94.9 million. At June 30, 1998, the Company had $19.2 million in investment securities consisting primarily of U.S. agency securities and investments in an adjustable rate mortgage-backed mutual fund and a money market fund investing in short-term securities. At June 30, 1998, the majority of the Company's $59.3 million of mortgage-backed securities were insured or guaranteed by either FNMA, GNMA or FHLMC, including $29.4 million in mortgage-backed securities available for sale. Investments in mortgage-backed securities involve a risk that actual prepayments will be greater than estimated prepayments over the life of the security which may require adjustments to the amortization of any premium or accretion of any discount relating to 18 21 such instruments thereby reducing the net yield on such securities. There is also reinvestment risk associated with the cash flows from such securities. In addition, the market value of such securities may be adversely affected by changes in interest rates.

22 25 SOURCES OF FUNDS GENERAL. Deposits, loan repayments and prepayments, proceeds from sales of loans, cash flows generated from operations and FHLB advances are primary sources of the Association's funds for use in lending, investing and for other general purposes. DEPOSITS. The Association offers a variety of deposit accounts with a range of interest rates and terms. The Association's deposits consist of passbook savings, NOW accounts, checking accounts, money market accounts and certificates of deposit. For the year ended June 30, 1998, certificates of deposit constituted 77.1% of total average deposits. The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic conditions, changes in money market rates, prevailing interest rates and competition. The Association's deposits are obtained predominantly from the areas in which its branch offices are located. During the year ended June 30, 1997, the Association acquired $20.2 million in deposits from another institution. The Association relies primarily on customer service and long-standing relationships with customers to attract and retain these deposits; however, market interest rates and rates offered by competing financial institutions significantly affect the Association's ability to attract and retain deposits. Certificate accounts in excess of $100,000 are not actively solicited by the Association nor has the Association since 1992 used brokers to obtain deposits.

24 27 BORROWINGS From time to time the Association has obtained advances from the FHLB as an alternative to retail deposit funds and may do so in the future as part of its operating strategy. FHLB advances may also be used to acquire certain other assets as may be deemed appropriate for investment purposes. These advances are collateralized primarily by certain of the Association's mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities and secondarily by the Association's investment in capital stock of the FHLB. See " Regulation - Federal Home Loan Bank System." Such advances are made pursuant to several different credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of maturities. The maximum amount that the FHLB will advance to member institutions, including the Association, fluctuates from time to time in accordance with the policies of the OTS and the FHLB. During the year ended June 30, 1998, the Association repaid approximately $12.4 million in FHLB advances. At June 30, 1998, the Association had $70.5 million in outstanding advances from the FHLB.
The following table sets forth certain information regarding the Association's borrowed funds from the FHLB at or for the periods ended on the dates indicated: At or For the Years Ended June 30, ----------------------------------------------- 1998 1997 1996 ------------ ------------ ------------ (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) FHLB advances: Average balance outstanding $ 72,722 $ 73,513 $ 49,419 Maximum amount outstanding at any month-end during the period 75,876 78,172 74,115 Balance outstanding at end of period 70,543 77,907 67,509 Weighted average interest rate during the period 6.28% 6.25% 6.50% Weighted average interest rate at end of period 6.21% 6.27% 6.23%
As part of its funding strategy, the Company may obtain funds from approved securities dealers through securities sold under agreements to repurchase. The collateral used in such borrowings is normally agency securities or mortgage-backed securities. At June 30, 1998, the Company had $6.0 million outstanding of such borrowings. During the year ended June 30, 1998, the Company repaid approximately $3,430,000 of such borrowings. 25 28

SUBSIDIARY ACTIVITIES First Covina Service Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Association, acts as trustee for deeds of trust on behalf of the Association and offers non-insured investment products such as tax-deferred annuities and mutual funds through licensed representatives. The assets of First Covina primarily consist of a $625,000 loan to the Association. Other than interest on the note to the Association, First Covina Service Company earns commissions on the sale of tax-deferred annuities and mutual funds PERSONNEL As of June 30, 1998, the Company had 73 full-time employees and 28 part-time employees. The employees are not represented by a collective bargaining unit and the Company considers its relationship with its employees to be good. 26 29 REGULATION AND SUPERVISION GENERAL The Company, as a savings and loan holding company, is required to file certain reports with, and otherwise comply with the rules and regulations of the OTS under the Home Owners' Loan Act, as amended (the "HOLA"). In addition, the activities of savings institutions, such as the Association, are governed by the HOLA and the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("FDI Act"). The Association is subject to extensive regulation, examination and supervision by the OTS, as its primary federal regulator, and the FDIC, as the insurer of its deposits. The Association is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") System and its deposit accounts are insured up to applicable limits by the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") managed by the FDIC. The Association must file reports with the OTS and the FDIC concerning its activities and financial condition in addition t obtaining regulatory approvals prior to entering into certain transactions such as mergers with, or acquisitions of, other savings institutions. The OTS and/or the FDIC conduct periodic examinations to test the Association's compliance with various regulatory requirements. This regulation and supervision establishes a comprehensive framework of activities in which an institution can engage and is intended primarily for the protection of the insurance fund and depositors. The regulatory structure also gives the regulatory authorities extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities and examination policies, including policies with respect to the classification of assets and the establishment of adequate loan loss reserves for regulatory purposes. Any change in such regulatory requirements and policies, whether by the OTS, the FDIC or the Congress could have a material adverse impact on the Company, the Association and their operations. Certain of the regulatory requirements applicable to the Association and to the Company are referred to below or elsewhere herein. The description of statutory provisions and regulations applicable to savings institutions and their holding companies set forth herein does not purport to be a complete description of such statutes and regulations and their effects on the Association and the Company. HOLDING COMPANY REGULATION The Company is a nondiversified unitary savings and loan holding company within the meaning of the HOLA. As a unitary savings and loan holding company, the Company generally will not be restricted under existing laws as to the types of business activities in which it may engage, provided that the Association continues to be a qualified thrift lender ("QTL"). Upon any non-supervisory acquisition by the Company of another savings institution or savings bank that meets the QTL test and is deemed to b a savings institution by the OTS, the Company would become a multiple savings and loan holding company (if the acquired institution is held as a separate subsidiary) and would be subject to extensive limitations on the types of business activities in which it could engage. The HOLA limits the activities of a multiple savings and loan holding company and its non-insured institution subsidiaries primarily to activities permissible for bank holding companies under Section 4(C)(8) of the Bank Holding Company Act ("BHC Act"), subject to the prior approval of the OTS, and certain activities authorized by OTS regulation and no multiple savings and loan holding company may acquire more than 5% of the voting stock of a company engaged in impermissible activities. The HOLA prohibits a savings and loan holding company, directly or indirectly, or through one or more subsidiaries, from acquiring more than 5% of the voting stock of another savings institution or holding company thereof, without prior written approval of the OTS or acquiring or retaining control of a depository institution that is not insured by the FDIC. In evaluating applications by holding 27 30 companies to acquire savings institutions, the OTS must consider the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of the company and institution involved, the effect of the acquisition on the risk to the insurance funds, the convenience and needs of the community and competitive factors. The OTS is prohibited from approving any acquisition that would result in a multiple savings and loan holding company controlling savings institutions in more than one state, subject to two exceptions: (I) the approval of interstate supervisory acquisitions by savings and loan holding companies and (ii) the acquisition of a savings institution in another state if the laws of the state of the target savings institution specifically permit such acquisitions. The states vary in the extent to which the permit interstate savings and loan holding company acquisitions. Although savings and loan holding companies are not subject to specific capital requirements or specific restrictions on the payment of dividends or other capital distributions, HOLA does prescribe such restrictions on subsidiary savings institutions, as described below. The Association must notify the OTS 30 days before declaring any dividend to the Company. In addition, the financial impact of a holding company on its subsidiary institution is a matter that is evaluated by the OTS and the agency has authority to order cessation of activities or divestiture of subsidiaries deemed to pose a threat to the safety and soundness of the institution. FEDERAL SAVINGS INSTITUTION REGULATION CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS. The OTS capital regulations require savings institutions to meet three minimum capital standards: a 1.5% tangible capital ratio, a 3% leverage (core capital) ratio and an 8% risk-based capital ratio. In addition, the prompt corrective action standards discussed below also establish, in effect, a minimum 2% tangible capital standard, a 4% leverage (core) capital ratio (3% for institutions receiving the highest rating on the CAMEL financial institution rating system), and, together with the risk-based capital standard itself, a 4% Tier I risk-based capital standard. Core capital is defined as common stockholder's equity (including retained earnings), certain noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus, and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries less intangibles other than certain purchased mortgage servicing rights and credit card relationships. The OTS regulations also require that, in meeting the leverage ratio, tangible and risk-based capital standards, institutions must generally deduct investments in and loans to subsidiaries engaged in activities not permissible for a national bank. The risk-based capital standard for savings institutions requires the maintenance of Tier I (core) and total capital (which is defined as core capital and supplementary capital) to risk-weighted assets of at least 4% and 8%, respectively. In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, including certain off-balance sheet assets, are multiplied by a risk-weight of 0% to 100%, as assigned by the OTS capital regulation based on the risks OTS believes are inherent in the type of asset. The components of Tier I (core) capital are equivalent to those discussed above. The components of supplementary capital currently include cumulative preferred stock, long-term perpetual preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities, subordinated debt and intermediate preferred stock and the allowance for loan and lease losses limited to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. Overall, the amount of supplementary capital included as part of total capital cannot exceed 100% of core capital. The OTS regulatory capital requirements also incorporate an interest rate risk component. Savings institutions with "above normal" interest rate risk exposure are subject to a deduction from total capital for purposes of calculating their risk-based capital requirements. A savings institution's interest rate risk is measured by the decline in the net portfolio value of its assets (I.E., the difference between incoming and outgoing discounted cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts) 28 31 that would result from a hypothetical 200 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates divided by the estimated economic value of the institution's assets. In calculating its total capital under the risk-based capital rule, a savings institution whose measured interest rate risk exposure exceeds 2% must deduct an amount equal to one-half of the difference between the institution's measured interest rate risk and 2%, multiplied by the estimated economic value of the institution's assets. The Director of the OTS may waive or defer a savings institution's interest rate risk component on a case-by-case basis. A savings institution with assets of less than $300 million and risk-based capital ratios in excess of 12% is not subject to the interest rate risk component, unless the OTS determines otherwise. For the present time, the OTS has deferred implementation of the interest rate risk component. At June 30, 1998, the Association met each of its capital requirements and it is anticipated that the Association will not be subject to the interest rate risk component.

- ------------------ (1) Although the OTS capital regulations require savings institutions to meet a 1.5% tangible capital ratio and a 3% leverage (core) capital ratio, the prompt corrective action standards discussed below also establish, in effect, a minimum 2% tangible capital standard, a 4% leverage (core) capital ratio (3% for institutions receiving the highest rating on the CAMEL financial institution rating system), and, together with the risk-based capital standard itself, a 4% Tier I risk-based capital standard. 29 32 PROMPT CORRECTIVE REGULATORY ACTION. Under the OTS prompt corrective action regulations, the OTS is required to take certain supervisory actions against undercapitalized institutions, the severity of which depends upon the institution's degree of undercapitalization. Generally, a savings institution that has a ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of less than 8%, a ratio of Tier I (core) capital to risk-weighted assets of less than 4% or a ratio of core capital to total assets of less than 4% (3% or less for institutions with the highest examination rating) is considered to be "undercapitalized." A savings institution that has a total risk-based capital ratio less than 6%, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of less than 3% or a leverage ratio that is less than 3% is considered to be "significantly undercapitalized" and a savings institution that has a tangible capital to assets ratio equal to or less than 2% is deemed to be "critically undercapitalized." Subject to a narrow exception, the banking regulator is required to appoint a receiver or conservator for an institution that is "critically undercapitalized." The regulation also provides that a capital restoration plan must be filed with the OTS within 45 days of the date a savings institution receives notice that it is "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized" or "critically undercapitalized." Compliance with the plan must be guaranteed by any parent holding company. In addition, numerous mandatory supervisory actions become immediately applicable to an undercapitalized institution, including, but not limited to, increased monitoring by regulators and restrictions on growth, capital distributions and expansion. The OTS could also take any one of a number of discretionary supervisory actions, including the issuance of a capital directive and the replacement of senior executive officers and directors. INSURANCE OF DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS. Deposits of the Association are presently insured by the SAIF. Both the SAIF and the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF"), (the deposit insurance fund that covers most commercial bank deposits), are statutorily required to be recapitalized to a 1.25% of insured reserve deposits ratio. Until recently, members of the SAIF and BIF were paying average deposit insurance premiums of between 24 and 25 basis points. The BIF met the required reserve in 1995, whereas the SAIF was not expected to meet or exceed the required level until 2002 at the earliest. This situation was primarily due to the statutory requirement that SAIF members make payments on bonds issued in the late 1980s by the Financing Corporation ("FICO") to recapitalize the predecessor to the SAIF. In view of the BIF's achieving the 1.25% ratio, the FDIC ultimately adopted a new assessment rate schedule of from 0 to 27 basis points under which 92% of BIF members paid an annual premium of only $2,000. With respect to SAIF member institutions, the FDIC adopted a final rule retaining the previously existing assessment rate schedule applicable to SAIF member institutions of 23 to 31 basis points. As long as the premium differential continued, it may have had adverse consequences for SAIF members including reduced earnings and an impaired ability to raise funds in the capital markets. In addition, SAIF members, such as the Association, were placed at a substantial competitive disadvantage to BIF members with respect to pricing of loans and deposits and the ability to achieve lower operating costs. On September 30, 1996, the President signed into law the Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996 (the "Funds Act") which, among other things, imposed a special one-time assessment of SAIF member institutions, including the Association, to recapitalize the SAIF. As required by the Funds Act, the FDIC imposed a special assessment of 65.7 basis points on SAIF assessable deposits held as of March 31, 1995, payable November 27, 1996. The special assessment was recognized as an expense in the quarter ended September 30, 1996, and is generally tax deductible. The Association took a pre-tax charge of $1.3 million as a result of the FDIC special assessment. The Funds Act also spreads the obligations for payment of the Financing Corporation ("FICO") bonds across all SAIF and BIF members. Beginning on January 1, 1997, BIF deposits were assessed for a FICO payment of approximately 1.3 basis points, while SAIF deposits pay approximately 6.4 basis 30 33 points on the FICO bonds. Full pro rata sharing of the FICO payments between BIF and SAIF members will occur on the earlier of January 1, 2000, or the date the BIF and SAIF are merged. The Funds Act specifies that the BIF and SAIF will be merged on January 1, 1999, provided no savings associations remain as of that time. As a result of the Funds Act, the FDIC voted to effectively lower SAIF assessments to 0 to 27 basis points effective January 1, 1997, a range comparable to that of BIF members. SAIF members will also continue to make the FICO payments described above. The FDIC also lowered the SAIF assessment schedule for the third quarter of 1997 to 18 to 27 basis points. Management cannot predict the level of FDIC insurance assessments on an on-going basis, whether the savings association charter will be eliminated or whether the BIF and SAIF will eventually be merged. The Association's assessment rate for fiscal 1998 ranged from 6.1 to 6.4 basis points and the premium paid for this period was $180,000. A significant increase in SAIF insurance premiums would likely have an adverse effect on the operating expenses and results of operations of the Association. Under the FDI Act, insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC or the OTS. The management of the Association does not know of any practice, condition or violation that might lead to termination of deposit insurance. THRIFT RECHARTERING LEGISLATION. The Funds Act provides that the BIF and SAIF will merge on January 1, 1999 if there are no more savings associations as of that date. That legislation also required that the Department of Treasury submit a report to Congress that makes recommendations regarding a common financial institutions charter, including whether the separate charter for thrifts and banks should be abolished. Various proposals to eliminate the federal thrift charter, create a uniform financial institutions charter and abolish the OTS have been introduced in Congress. The bills would require federal savings institutions to convert to a national bank or some type of state charter by a specified date under some bills, or they would automatically become national banks. Under the same proposals, converted federal thrifts would generally be required to conform their activities to those permitted for the charter selected and divestiture of nonconforming assets would be required over a two year period, subject to two possible one year extensions. State chartered thrifts would become subject to the same federal regulation as applies to state commercial banks. A more recent bill passed by the House Banking Committee would not affect the federal thrift charter, but would subject unitary savings and loan holding companies to the same activity restrictions applicable to multiple savings and loan holding companies. Unitary savings and loan holding companies existing on or applied for by March 31, 1998 would be grandfathered. The Association is unable to predict whether such legislation would be enacted or the extent to which the legislation would restrict or disrupt its operations. LOANS TO ONE BORROWER. Under the HOLA, savings institutions are generally subject to the limits on loans to one borrower applicable to national banks. Generally, savings institutions may not make a loan or extend credit to a single or related group of borrowers in excess of 15% of its unimpaired capital and surplus. An additional amount may be lent, equal to 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus, if such loan is secured by readily-marketable collateral, which is defined to include certain financial instruments and bullion. At June 30, 1998, the Association's limit on loans to one borrower was $4.2 million. At June 30, 1998, the Association's largest aggregate outstanding balance of loans to one borrower totaled $1.5 million. All loans to this borrower were current. 31 34 QTL TEST. The HOLA requires savings institutions to meet a QTL test. Under the QTL test, a savings and loan association is required to maintain at least 65% of its "portfolio assets" (total assets less (I) specified liquid assets up to 20% of total assets; (ii) intangibles, including goodwill; and (iii) the value of property used to conduct business) in certain "qualified thrift investments" (primarily residential mortgages and related investments, including certain mortgage-backed securities) in at least 9 months out of each 12 month period. A savings institution that fails the QTL test is subject to certain operating restrictions and may be required to convert to a bank charter. As of June 30, 1998, the Association maintained 94.0% of its portfolio assets in qualified thrift investments and, therefore, met the QTL test. Recent legislation has expanded the extent to which education loans, credit card loans and small business loans may be considered "qualified thrift investments." LIMITATION ON CAPITAL DISTRIBUTIONS. OTS regulations impose limitations upon all capital distributions by savings institutions, such as cash dividends, payments to repurchase or otherwise acquire its shares, payments to shareholders of another institution in a cash-out merger and other distributions charged against capital. The rule establishes three tiers of institutions, which are based primarily on an institution's capital level. An institution that exceeds all fully phased-in capital requirements before and after a proposed capital distribution ("Tier I Association") and has not been advised by the OTS that it is in need of more than normal supervision, could, after prior notice but without obtaining approval of the OTS, make capital distributions during a calendar year equal to the greater of (I) 100% of its net earnings to date during the calendar year plus the amount that would reduce by one-half its "surplus capital ratio" (the excess capital over its fully phased-in capital requirements) at the beginning of the calendar year or (ii) 75% of its net income for the previous four quarters. Any additional capital distributions would require prior regulatory approval. In the event the Association's capital fell below its regulatory requirements or the OTS notified it that it was in need of more than normal supervision, the Association's ability to make capital distributions could be restricted. In addition, the OTS could prohibit a proposed capital distribution by any institution, which would otherwise be permitted by the regulation, if the OTS determines that such distribution would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. In December 1994, the OTS proposed amendments to its capital distribution regulation that would generally authorize the payment of capital distributions without OTS approval provided that the payment does not cause the institution to be undercapitalized within the meaning of the prompt corrective action regulation. However, institutions in a holding company structure would still have a prior notice requirement. At March 31, 1997, the Association was a Tier I Bank. LIQUIDITY. The Association is required to maintain an average daily balance of specified liquid assets equal to a monthly average of not less than a specified percentage of its net withdrawable deposit accounts plus short-term borrowings. This liquidity requirement is currently 4% but may be changed from time to time by the OTS to any amount within the range of 4% to 10% depending upon economic conditions and the savings flows of member institutions. The OTS has recently lowered the liquidity requirement from 5% to 4% and eliminated the 1% short term liquid asset requirement. Monetary penalties may be imposed for failure to meet these liquidity requirements. The Association's liquidity ratio for June 30, 1998 was 22.33%, which exceeded the then applicable requirements. The Association has never been subject to monetary penalties for failure to meet its liquidity requirements. ASSESSMENTS. Savings institutions are required to pay assessments to the OTS to fund the agency's operations. The general assessment, paid on a semi-annual basis, is computed upon the savings institution's total assets, including consolidated subsidiaries, as reported in the Association's 32 35 latest quarterly thrift financial report. The assessments paid by the Association for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998 totaled $98,000. BRANCHING. OTS regulations permit nationwide branching by federally chartered savings institutions to the extent allowed by federal statute. This permits federal savings institutions to establish interstate networks and to geographically diversify their loan portfolios and lines of business. The OTS authority preempts any state law purporting to regulate branching by federal savings institutions. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES. The Association's authority to engage in transactions with related parties or "affiliates" (E.G., any company that controls or is under common control with an institution, including the Company and its non-savings institution subsidiaries) is limited by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act ("FRA"). Section 23A limits the aggregate amount of covered transactions with any individual affiliate to 10% of the capital and surplus of the savings institution's capital and surplus. Certain transactions with affiliates are required to be secured by collateral in an amount and of a type described in Section 23A and the purchase of low quality assets from affiliates is generally prohibited. Section 23B generally provides that certain transactions with affiliates, including loans and asset purchases, must be on terms and under circumstances, including credit standards, that are substantially the same or at least as favorable to the institution as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies. In addition, savings institutions are prohibited from lending to any affiliate that is engaged in activities that are not permissible for bank holding companies and no savings institution may purchase the securities of any affiliate other than a subsidiary. The Association's authority to extend credit to executive officers, directors and 10% shareholders, as well as entities such persons control, is governed by Sections 22(g) and 22(h) of the FRA and Regulation O thereunder. Among other things, such loans are required to be made on terms substantially the same as those offered to unaffiliated individuals and to not involve more than the normal risk of repayment. Recent legislation created an exception for loans made pursuant to a benefit or compensation program that is widely available to all employees of the institution and does not give preference to insiders over other employees. Regulation O also places individual and aggregate limits on the amount of loans the Association may make to such persons based, in part, on the Association's capital position and requires certain board approval procedures to be followed. ENFORCEMENT. Under the FDI Act, the OTS has primary enforcement responsibility over savings institutions and has the authority to bring actions against the institution and all "institution-affiliated parties," including stockholders, and any attorneys, appraisers and accountants who knowingly or recklessly participate in wrongful action likely to have an adverse effect on an insured institution. Formal enforcement action may range from the issuance of a capital directive or cease and desist order to removal of officers and/or directors to institution of receivership, conservatorship or termination of deposit insurance. Civil penalties cover a wide range of violations and an amount to $25,000 per day, or even $1 million per day in especially egregious cases. Under the FDI Act, the FDIC has the authority to recommend to the Director of the OTS enforcement action to be taken with respect to a particular savings institutions. If action is not taken by the Director, the FDIC has authority to take such action under certain circumstances. Federal law also establishes criminal penalties for certain violations. STANDARDS FOR SAFETY AND SOUNDNESS. The federal banking agencies have adopted Interagency Guidelines Prescribing Standards for Safety and Soundness ("Guidelines") and a final rule to implement safety and soundness standards required under the FDI Act. The Guidelines set forth the safety and soundness standards that the federal banking agencies use to identify and address problems at insured depository institutions before capital becomes impaired. The standards set forth in the Guidelines address internal controls and information systems; internal audit systems; credit underwriting; loan 33 36 documentation; interest rate exposure; asset growth; and compensation, fees and benefits. The agencies are expected to adopt a proposed rule that sets forth asset quality and earnings standards which, if adopted in final, would be added to the Guidelines. If the appropriate federal banking agency determines that an institution fails to meet any standard prescribed by the Guidelines, the agency may require the institution to submit to the agency an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the standard, as required by the FDI Act. The final rule establishes a deadline for the submission and review of such safety and soundness compliance plans when such plans are required. FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK SYSTEM The Association is a member of the FHLB System, which consists of 12 regional FHLBs. The FHLB provides a central credit facility primarily for member institutions. The Association, as a member of the FHLB-San Francisco, is required to acquire and hold shares of capital stock in that FHLB in an amount at least equal to 1% of the aggregate principal amount of its unpaid residential mortgage loans and similar obligations at the beginning of each year, or 1/20 of its advances (borrowings) from the FHL San Francisco, whichever is greater. The Association was in compliance with this requirement, with an investment in FHLB-San Francisco stock at June 30, 1998, of $4.2 million. FHLB advances must be secured by specified types of collateral and may be obtained primarily for the purpose of providing funds for residential housing finance. The FHLBs are required to provide funds to cover certain obligations on bonds issued to fund the resolution of insolvent thrifts and to contribute funds for affordable housing programs. These requirements could reduce the amount of dividends that the FHLBs pay to their members and could also result in the FHLBs imposing a higher rate of interest on advances to their members. For the years ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996, dividends from the FHLB-San Francisco to the Association amounted to $247,000, $237,000, and $152,000, respectively. If dividends were reduced, or interest on future FHLB advances increased, the Association's net interest income might also be reduced. FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM The regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve Board") require savings institutions to maintain non-interest earning reserves against their transaction accounts (primarily NOW and regular checking accounts). The Federal Reserve Board regulations generally require that reserves be maintained against aggregate transaction accounts as follows: for accounts aggregating $47.8 million or less (subject to adjustment by the Federal Reserve Board) the reserve requirement is 3%; and for accounts greater than $47.8 million, the reserve requirement is $1.29 million plus 10% (subject to adjustment by the Federal Reserve Board between 8% and 14%) against that portion of total transaction accounts in excess of $47.8 million. The first $4.7 million of otherwise reservable balances (subject to adjustments by the Federal Reserve Board) are exempted from the reserve requirements. The Association is in compliance with the foregoing requirements. The balances maintaine to meet the reserve requirements imposed by the Federal Reserve Board may be used to satisfy liquidity requirements imposed by the OTS. FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS The Company's Common Stock is registered with the SEC under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Company is subject to the periodic reporting requirements, proxy solicitation rules, insider trading restrictions, tender offer rules and other requirements under the Exchange Act. 34 37 The registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") of shares of the Common Stock that were issued in the Association's conversion from mutual to stock form does not cover the resale of such shares. Shares of the Common Stock purchased by persons who are not affiliates of the Company may be resold without registration. Shares purchased by an affiliate of the Company will be subject to the resale restrictions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. If the Company meets the current public information requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, each affiliate of the Company who complies with the other conditions of Rule 144 (including those that require the affiliate's sale to be aggregated with those of certain other persons) would be able to sell in the public market, without registration, a number of shares not to exceed, in any three-month period, the greater of (I) 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company or (ii) the average weekly volume of trading in such shares during the preceding four calendar weeks. Shares acquired through the Company's option plans have been registered under the Securities Act and, therefore, are not subject to resale restrictions. FEDERAL AND STATE TAXATION FEDERAL TAXATION GENERAL. The Company and the Association report their income on a fiscal year ending June 30 using the accrual method of accounting and are subject to federal income taxation in the same manner as other corporations with some exceptions, including particularly the Association's reserve for bad debts discussed below. The following discussion of tax matters is intended only as a summary and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of the tax rules applicable to the Association or the Company. BAD DEBT RESERVE. For tax years beginning prior to January 1, 1996, savings institutions such as the Association which met certain definitional tests primarily related to their assets and the nature of their business ("qualified institutions") were permitted to establish a reserve for bad debts ("reserve method"). Annual additions to the reserve, within specified formula limits, may be deducted in arriving at taxable income. Under the reserve method, qualifying institutions were generally allowed to use either of two alternative computations: Under the "percentage of taxable income" method computation, qualifying institutions could claim a bad debt deduction computed as a percentage of taxable income adjusted for certain items. Alternatively, a qualifying institution could elect to utilize its own bad debt loss experience to compute its annual addition to its bad debt reserves (the "experience method"). Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES, savings associations were not required to provide a federal deferred tax liability for the bad debt reserves that arose in tax years beginning before January 1, 1988. Such reserves were, however, subject to recapture in whole or in part upon the occurrence of certain events such as failure to remain a qualified institution, distributions to shareholders in excess of the association's current and accumulated earnings and profits, a redemption of shares, or upon a partial or complete liquidation of the association. Upon the occurrence of such events, the association would be required to provide federal deferred taxes in their financial statements for the recaptured portion of the tax reserve. Legislation enacted in 1996, repealed the special bad debt rules applicable to savings associations for taxable years beginning after December 31, 1995. Under these provisions, savings associations will follow the same rules for purposes of computing allowable bad debt deductions as banks, which allows an annual addition to the association's bad debt reserve under the experience 35 38 method as long as total assets do not exceed $500 million, but does not allow for an addition based on the percentage of taxable income method. Under the 1996 Legislation, if a savings association converts to a bank or is merged into a bank, the association's bad debt reserve will not automatically be subject to recapture. Recapture of the grandfathered bad debt reserve would still occur in the event of certain distributions, redemptions or partial liquidations, as previously discussed. As of June 30, 1998, the Association's tax bad debt reserve grandfathered under the new law for which federal deferred taxes have not been provided totale approximately $2.7 million. The Association does not intend to pay dividends or enter into any other type of transaction as noted above, that would result in the recapture of any portion of its grandfathered bad debt reserve. STATE AND LOCAL TAXATION STATE OF CALIFORNIA. The California franchise tax rate applicable to the Association equals the franchise tax rate applicable to corporations generally, plus an "in lieu" rate approximately equal to personal property taxes and business license taxes paid by such corporations (but not generally paid by banks or financial corporations such as the Association); however, the total tax rate is approximately 10.84%. Under California regulations, bad debt deductions are available in computing California franchise taxes using a three or six year weighted average loss experience method. The Association and its California subsidiary file California state franchise tax returns on a combined basis. DELAWARE TAXATION. As a Delaware holding company not earning income in Delaware, the Company is exempted from Delaware corporate income tax but is required to file an annual report with and pay an annual franchise tax to the State of Delaware. 36 39 ITEM 2. PROPERTIES - ------------------ The Company neither owns nor leases any real property. For the time being, it utilizes the property and equipment of the association without payment to the Association. The Association conducts its business through an administrative and full service office located in West Covina and seven other full service offices. The Company believes that the Association's current facilities are adequate to meet the present and immediately foreseeable needs of the Association and the Company.

(2) Asset quality ratios and Regulatory Capital Ratios are end of period ratios. With the exception of end of period ratios, all ratios are based on average monthly balances during the indicated periods and are annualized where appropriate. (3) The average interest rate spread represents the difference between the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. (4) The net interest margin represents net interest income as a percent of average interest-earning assets. (5) Includes the one-time special assessment to recapitalize SAIF of $1.3 million in 1997. (6) Gross loans receivable include loans receivable held for investment and loans held for sale, less undisbursed loan funds, deferred loan fees and unamortized discounts/premiums. (7) Non-performing assets consist of non-performing loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure ("reo"). Non-performing loans consist of all loans 90 days or more past due. It is the association's policy to cease accruing interest on all such loans. 40 43 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OF OPERATIONS - ------------- MANAGEMENT OF INTEREST RATE RISK The principal objective of the Association's interest rate risk management function is to evaluate the interest rate risk included in certain balance sheet accounts, determine the level of risk appropriate given the Association's business focus, operating environment, capital and liquidity requirements and performance objectives, and manage the risk consistent with Board approved guidelines. Through such management, the Association seeks to reduce the vulnerability of its operations to changes in interest rates. The Association monitors its interest rate risk as such risk relates to its operating strategies. The Association's Board of Directors has established an Asset/Liability Committee, responsible for reviewing its asset/liability policies and interest rate risk position, which meets monthly and reports trends to the Board of Directors on a monthly basis and the Association's interest rate risk position on a quarterly basis. The extent of the movement of interest rates, higher or lower, is a uncertainty that could have a negative impact on the earnings of the Association. In recent years, the Association has utilized the following strategies to manage rate risk: (I) emphasizing the origination or purchase of adjustable-rate one- to four-family mortgage loans for portfolio; (ii) selling to the secondary market the majority of fixed-rate mortgage loans originated; and, (iii) attempting to reduce the overall interest rate sensitivity of liabilities emphasizing core and longer-term deposits and utilizing FHLB advances. NET PORTFOLIO VALUE. The Association's interest rate sensitivity is monitored by management through the use of an internally generated model which estimates the change in net portfolio value ("NPV") over a range of interest rate scenarios. NPV is the present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts. An NPV Ratio, in any interest rate scenario, is defined as the NPV in that scenario divided by the market value of assets in the same scenario. The Sensitivity Measure is the decline in the NPV Ratio, in basis points, caused by a 2% increase or decrease in rates, whichever produces a larger decline. The higher an institution's Sensitivity Measure is, the greater its exposure to interest rate risk is considered to be. The OTS also produces a similar analysis using its own model, based upon data submitted on the Association's quarterly Thrift Financial Reports. As of June 30, 1998, the Association's Sensitivity Measure, as measured by the OTS, was 1.49%. At that same date, the Sensitivity Measure as measured by the Association, was 0.96%. The differences between the two measurements is partially attributed to differences in assigning various prepayment rates, decay rates and discount rates. The Association compares the results from the OTS with its internally generated results and provides the Board of Directors a comparison to determine if there is any additional risk. In addition to monitoring selected measures of NPV, management also monitors effects on net interest income resulting from changes in interest rates. These measures are used in conjunction with NPV measures to identify potential interest rate risk. The Association projects net interest income for the next twelve month period, based upon certain specific assumptions. For the years ended June 30, 1998, 1997 and 1996, the forecasted net interest income in the existing rate environment (held constant for the period) for interest rate risk management purposes was $10.2 million, $8.1 million, and $7.3 million, respectively, compared to the actual net interest income recorded of $10.9 million, $9.6 million, and $8.0 million, respectively. Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes in NPV requires the making of certain assumptions which may tend 41 44 to oversimplify the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. First, the models assume that the composition of the Association's interest sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period remains constant over the period being measured. Second, the models assume that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of duration to maturity or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Third, the model does not take into account the Association's business or strategic plans. Accordingly, although the NPV measurements and interest income models do provide an indication of the Association's interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provid a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on the Association's net interest income and will differ from actual results. The following table sets forth, at June 30, 1998, an analysis of the Association's internal report of its interest rate risk measured by the estimated changes in the NPV resulting from instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts in the yield curve (+/-400 basis points, measured in 100 basis point increments).

42 45 The following table provides information regarding the Company's primary categories of assets and liabilities which are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The information presented reflects the expected cash flows of the primary categories by year including the related weighted average interest rate. The cash flows for loans and mortgage-backed securities are based on maturity date and are adjusted for expected prepayments which are based on historical and current market information. The loans and mortgage-backed securities which have adjustable rate features are presented in accordance with their next interest-repricing date. Cash flow information on interest-bearing liabilities such as passbooks, NOW accounts and money market accounts also is adjusted for expected decay rates which are based on historical information. Also, for purposes of cash flow presentation, premiums or discounts on purchased assets, mark-to-market adjustments and loans on non-accrual are excluded from the amount presented. Investment securities are presented as to maturity date as are all certificates of deposit and borrowings.

AVERAGE BALANCE SHEET The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Company for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1998, 1997 and 1996. The yields and costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods shown. Average balances are derived from average month-end balances. Management does not believe that the use of average monthly balances instead of average daily balances has caused any material differences in the information presented. The yields and costs include fees which are considered adjustments to yields.

RATE/VOLUME ANALYSIS The following table presents the extent to which changes in interest rates and changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities have affected the Company's interest income and interest expense during the periods indicated. Information is provided in each category with respect to: (I) changes attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate); (ii) changes attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume); and (iii) the net change. The changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been allocated proportionately to the changes due to volume and the changes due to rate.

The improvement in operating results was due to the increase in average interest-earning assets which resulted in a $1.4 million net increase in net interest income. Although the total general and administrative expenses were relatively unchanged over the two fiscal years, the year ended June 30, 1998 included higher expenses related to higher staff levels primarily related to two additional branches for a full year and higher compensation costs related to stock compensation plans. In regards to the year ended June 30, 1997, the Association paid a special assessment totaling $1.3 million for the recapitalization of the insurance fund (SAIF). INTEREST INCOME Interest income for the year ended June 30, 1998 was $29.6 million compared to $26.7 million for the year ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $2.9 million, or 10.9%. The increase in interest income was primarily due to the increase in average balance of interest-earning assets to $393.3 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $361.5 million for the year ended June 30, 1997. The increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets was the result of a continuation of the growth strategy begun in the previous fiscal year to enhance the Company's earning ability. Key elements of the growth strategy continued to be the purchase of mortgage loans funded primarily by the growth in deposits. Interest income on loans receivable increased $2.8 million to $23.6 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $20.9 million for the year ended June 30, 1997. The increase in interest income was the result of the $28.5 million increase in the average balance of loans receivable for the year ended June 30, 1998 primarily as a result of the purchase of $40.6 million of adjustable rate loans from other financial institutions. The loans purchased were primarily indexed to the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Index (COFI) and were primarily seasoned, fully-indexed loans. Furthermore, the loans purchased included $10.6 million in home equity lines of credit with yields in excess or 10%. These home equity lines of credit are considered consumer loans as they were primarily funded based upon the credit worthiness of the borrower and, therefore, have more credit risk. The average yield on loans receivable for the year ended June 30, 1998 was 7.83%, which exceeded the 7.64% yield for loans receivable fo the year ended June 30, 1997. The increase in the yield on loans receivable was substantially enhanced with the acquisition of the home equity lines of credit. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities for the year ended June 30, 1998 was relatively unchanged at $4.0 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 as compared to $4.1 million for the year ended June 30, 1997. The slight decrease in interest income was due to the decrease in the average yield to 6.67% for the year ended June 30, 1998 from 6.78% for the year ended June 30, 1997 partially offset by the increase in the average balances to $60.4 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $59.7 million for the year ended June 30, 1997. The decrease in the average yield was primarily due to the increase in prepayments on the portfolio as a result 46 49 of the downward trend in interest rates resulting in a faster amortization of related premiums on purchased securities. Interest income on investment securities decreased $60,000 to $1.07 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $1.13 million for the year ended June 30, 1997. The increase was primarily due to the $0.5 million decrease in the average balance of investment securities to $16.7 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $17.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 and to the decrease in the average yield to 6.42% for the year ended June 30, 1998 from 6.58% for the year ended June 30, 1997. Th decrease in yield was primarily due to the decrease in overall interest rate environment during the year ended June 30, 1998 as compared to June 30, 1997. Interest income on interest-earning deposits and short-term investments increased by $220,000 to $609,000 for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $389,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. The increase in interest income on interest-earning deposits and daily investments was due to the increase in the average balance to $10.1 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $7.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 and to the increase in the average yield to 6.02% for the year ended June 30, 1998 from 5.42% for the year ended June 30, 1997. INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense for the year ended June 30, 1998 was $18.7 million compared to $17.1 million for the year ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $1.6 million, or 9.4%. The increase in interest expense was due to the $28.7 million increase in the average balances of interest-bearing liabilities to $363.5 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $334.7 million for the year ended June 30, 1997. The Company's overall average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was virtually unchanged for the year ending June 30, 1998 as compared to the year ending June 30, 1997. Interest expense on deposit accounts increased to $13.6 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $12.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1997. The increase in interest expense on deposit accounts reflects the $28.9 million increase in the average balance of deposit accounts to $283.7 million for the year ending June 30, 1998 from $254.8 million for the year ending June 30, 1997 due primarily to the growth in the Company's money market savings accounts during the current year, the growth of the deposits in its de novo branch opened on March 31, 1997 and to the deposits from an office purchased in February 1997 being outstanding for a full year. The Company's use of borrowed funds, including FHLB advances and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, was relatively unchanged for the year ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the year ended June 30, 1997. Interest expense on borrowings increased slightly to $5.0 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $4.9 million for the year ended June 30, 1997. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to the increase in the average cost of borrowings to 6.31% for the year ended June 30, 1998 compared to 6.18% for the year ended June 30, 1997 as a result of the lengthening of the average maturities of the Company's liabilities. PROVISION FOR ESTIMATED LOAN LOSSES The Company's provision for estimated loan losses increased to $735,000 for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $557,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. The current year's 47 50 allowance for estimated loan losses reflects $573,000 in loan charge-offs as compared to $352,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. The difference between the actual amount of charge-offs for the current year and the amount reflected in the provision represents an allocation for the growth in the consumer loan portfolio during the year ended June 30, 1998 and management's concerns regarding the general market conditions. The allowance for estimated loan losses increased to $1.4 million, or 0.48% of gross loans receivable, at June 30, 1998 from $1.3 million, or 0.44% of gross loans receivable at June 30, 1997. As a percentage of non-performing loans, the allowance for loan losses increased to 74.56% at June 30, 1998 compared to 74.34% at June 30, 1997. The amount of the provision and allowance for loan losses is influenced by current economic conditions, actual loss experience, industry trends and other factors such as adverse economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Association's allowance for estimated loan losses. Such agencies may require the Association to recognize additions to the allowance based upon judgments which differ from those of management. Although management uses the best information available, future adjustment to the allowance may be necessary due to economic, operating, regulatory and other conditions that may be beyond management's control. OTHER INCOME Other income for the Company increased to $1.3 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 compared to $1.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $41,000, or 3.4%. The increase in non-interest income was primarily due to the improvement in the fees related to deposit accounts which increased to $522,000 for the year ended June 30, 1998 as compared to $306,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. The increase in deposit related fees was primarily due to the continued growth in core deposits (primarily non-interest bearing checking accounts) which generate higher fee income such as non-sufficient fee income and fees related to ATM transactions. Income from loan servicing and related fees increased by $82,000 to $532,000 for the year ended June 30, 1998 as compared to $450,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. Offsetting these improvements was the recording of a net loss on real estate owned activity of $109,000 for the year ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the net gain of $157,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. The net gain in the year ended June 30, 1997 was primarily the result of a $344,000 favorable litigation settlement culminating a settlement process relating to a land development foreclosure which occurred in 1992. The Company also posted only $45,000 in net gains in regards to sales of investments and mortgage-backed securities during the year ended June 30, 1998 as compared to a net gain of $148,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES General and administrative expenses increased by $1.3 million to $8.9 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $7.6 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 (excluding the $1.3 million one-time special assessment to recapitalize the SAIF insurance fund paid in the year ended June 30, 1997). Compensation and other employee benefits increased by $780,000 to $4.9 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $4.1 million for the year ended June 30, 1997. The increase in compensation costs was primarily attributable to the increase in staff primarily due to the addition of two branches for a full year. Employee benefits increased as a 48 51 result of the costs related to the employee stock ownership and the stock compensation plans which increased to $724,000 for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $472,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. Equipment and data processing costs increased to $1.1 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $932,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 primarily related to the addition of two branches in February and March of 1997. Also, the increase in costs was due to the replacement of outdated equipment with data processing equipment which is Year 2000 ready. The regular insurance assessments paid to the FDIC decreased to $180,000 for the year ended June 30, 1998 from $313,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 as a result of the lowering of the assessment rate as of January 1, 1997, following the recapitalization of SAIF. INCOME TAX Income tax expense was $1.0 million for the year ended June 30, 1998 compared to $534,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997, representing an increase of $510,000. This increase is principally due to the increase in taxable income in fiscal 1998 as compared to fiscal 1997. See Note 11 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Company's income taxes. COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT JUNE 30, 1998 AND JUNE 30, 1997 The Company's total assets decreased slightly to $408.3 million at June 30, 1998 from $409.3 million at June 30, 1997, a decrease of $1.0 million primarily due to decreases in the Association's mortgage-backed securities, which were partially offset by increases in the Association's loans receivable. During the year, the Company increased its loans receivable held for investment by $11.1 million to $295.7 million at June 30, 1998 from $284.6 million at June 30, 1997 primarily as a result of the $40.6 million in loans purchased throughout the year. All of the loans purchased were adjustable rate mortgage loans primarily indexed to COFI, with $10.6 million in home equity lines of credit which are considered consumer loans as they are underwritten primarily on the credit worthiness of the individual. These loans have a significantly higher yield, in excess of 10%, but also have a higher credit risk profile. The Association recognizes this higher credit risk and has assigned a higher general allowance loss factor to them. To date, these loans have generally performed as expected. The properties securing all loans purchased are located primarily in southern California, but are dispersed throughout a wider area than the Company's normal lending area. Although the Company originated and purchased a total of $75.1 million in loans for portfolio during the year ended June 30, 1998, the increase in prepayments from lower interest rates significantly reduced the ability to increase the Company's loan portfolio. During the year ended June 30, 1998, the Company experienced an 84% increase in prepayments to $61.0 million as compared to $33.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1997. The Company's investment in mortgage-backed securities decreased to $59.3 million at June 30, 1998 from $76.2 million at June 30, 1997. The decrease in this portfolio was primarily the result of the increase in prepayments, to $15.5 million for the year, and the sale of approximately $16.4 million in securities used to fund the increase in the loan portfolio. Investment securities available for sale increased to $19.2 million at June 30, 1998 from $12.5 million at June 30, 1997 due primarily to the additional cash generated by the substantial 49 52 increase in prepayments related to the Company's loan and mortgage-backed securities portfolios. The Company's investment in real estate acquired through foreclosure increased to $1.9 million at June 30, 1998 from $1.2 million at June 30, 1997 as a result of the higher foreclosures experienced during the year. The higher foreclosures were the primary result of the depressed real estate market which resulted in lower home values in the Company's general lending area throughout most of the current year. The total liabilities of the Company decreased to $376.1 million at June 30, 1998 from $379.4 million at June 30, 1997 primarily due to decreases in the Association's FHLB advances and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, which was partially offset by increases in the Association's deposits. Total deposit accounts increased to $295.3 million at June 30, 1998 from $288.3 million. Core deposits (excluding certificates of deposit) increased to $95.8 million, or 32.4% of total deposits, at June 30, 1998 from $65.9 million, or 22.9% of total deposits, at June 30, 1997. The growth of core deposits is an integral part of management's strategy to enhance net interest income and build customer relationships. The majority of growth in the Company's core deposits was in the growth of money market savings accounts which increased to $47.5 million at June 30, 1998 from $19.6 million at June 30, 1997. The growth in this account was aided by direct mail solicitations which offered higher rates although the rates offered were lower than comparative rates on certificates of deposit. Also, the Company's noninterest-bearing checking accounts increased significantly in the year ended June 30, 1998 to $9.7 million from $5.9 million in the year ended June 30, 1997. The overall increase in core deposits benefits the Company in terms of lower cost of funds, the ability to generate additional fee income and the ability to build multiple relationships. The Company continues to utilize borrowings as a means to enhance net interest income and provide for longer-term financing of its asset base. As of June 30, 1998, the Company's borrowings from the FHLB totaled $70.5 million as compared to $77.9 million at June 30, 1997. Also, the Company's borrowings through securities sold under agreements to repurchase totaled $6.0 million at June 30, 1998 as compared to $9.4 million at June 30, 1997. The Company's stockholders' equity was $32.2 million at June 30, 1998, a increase of $2.3 million from the $29.9 million in stockholders' equity at June 30, 1997. The increase in stockholders' equity in fiscal 1998 was due primarily to the net earnings of $1.5 million and the $686,000 change related to the deferred stock compensation plans. COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1997, AND JUNE 30, 1996 GENERAL The net earnings for the year ended June 30, 1997 were $731,000, an increase of $137,000, or 23.1%, from the $594,000 in net earnings for the year ended June 30, 1996. The improvement in operating results was due to the increase in average interest-earning assets which resulted in a $1.6 million net increase in net interest income which was partially offset by the $2.0 million increase in general and administrative expenses, resulting primarily from the 50 53 payment of a special assessment totaling $1.3 million for the recapitalization of the insurance fund (SAIF). INTEREST INCOME Interest income for the year ended June 30, 1997 was $26.7 million compared to $21.3 million for the year ended June 30, 1996, an increase of $5.4 million, or 25.4%. The increase in interest income was primarily due to the increase in average balance of interest-earning assets to $361.5 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $288.4 million for the year ended June 30, 1996. The increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets was the result of a continuation of the growth strategy begun in the previous fiscal year to enhance the Company's earning ability. Key elements of the growth strategy continued to be the purchase of mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities funded primarily by the growth in deposits, including the branch purchase, and the use of borrowings such as FHLB advances. Interest income on loans receivable increased $3.1 million to $20.9 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $17.8 million for the year ended June 30, 1996. The increase in interest income was the result of the $40.1 million increase in the average balance of loans receivable for the year ended June 30, 1997 primarily as a result of the purchase of $33.3 million of adjustable rate loans from other financial institutions. The loans purchased were indexed to the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Index (COFI) and were primarily seasoned, fully-indexed loans. Furthermore, the loans purchased were $4.1 million of multi-family and $29.2 million of one- to four-family mortgage loans. The average yield on loans receivable for the year ended June 30, 1997 was 7.64%, which approximated the 7.63% yield for loans receivable for the year ended June 30, 1996. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities increased by $1.9 million to $4.1 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $2.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1996. The increase in interest income was due to the increase in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities to $59.7 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $33.9 million for the year ended June 30, 1996 and to the increase in the average yield to 6.78% for the year ended June 30, 1997 from 6.44% for the year ended June 30, 1996. The increase in the average balance during the year ended June 30, 1997 was the result of the purchase of $50.7 million in mortgage-backed securities, both available for sale and held to maturity, partially offset by the sale of $9.9 million in mortgage-backed securities available for sale. The Company utilized acquisitions of mortgage-backed securities during the year to increase the Company's interest-earning assets and as a substitute for mortgage loans. The average yield on mortgage-backe securities increased in the year ended June 30, 1997 primarily due to the higher yields on the securities purchased, which were principally fixed rate. Interest income on investment securities increased by $532,000 to $1.1 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $601,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996. The increase was primarily due to the $7.7 million increase in the average balance of investment securities to $17.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $9.5 million for the year ended June 30, 1996 and to the increase in the average yield to 6.58% for the year ended June 30, 1997 from 6.36% for the year ended June 30, 1996. The increase in yield was primarily due to the increase 51 54 in U.S. agency callable securities during the year ended June 30, 1997 as compared to June 30, 1996. Interest income on interest-earning deposits and daily investments decreased by $48,000 to $626,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $674,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996. The decrease in interest income on interest-earning deposits and daily investments was due to the decrease in the average balance to $7.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $8.5 million for the year ended June 30, 1996 and to the decrease in the average yield to 5.42% for the year ended June 30, 1997 from 6.15% for the year ended June 30, 1996. INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense for the year ended June 30, 1997 was $17.1 million compared to $13.3 million for the year ended June 30, 1996, an increase of $3.8 million, or 28.6%. The increase in interest expense was due to the $73.4 million increase in the average balances of interest-bearing liabilities to $334.7 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $261.3 million for the year ended June 30, 1996. The increase in interest expense was also due to the slight increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 5.12% for the year ending June 30, 1997 from 5.09% for the year ending June 30, 1996. Interest expense on deposit accounts increased to $12.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $10.1 million for the year ended June 30, 1996. The increase in interest expense on deposit accounts reflects the $43.2 million increase in the average balance of deposit accounts to $254.8 million for the year ending June 30, 1997 from $211.6 million for the year ending June 30, 1996 which was partially the result of the purchase of $20.2 million in deposits from another institution in February 1997 and due to the establishment of a new branch in March 1997 which generated $5.3 million in deposits in its first three months of operation. The Company's use of borrowed funds, including FHLB advances and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, increased during the year ended June 30, 1997. The Company increased its usage of such borrowings to fund the growth in assets to enhance net interest income and to extend the average maturities of the liabilities of the Company. Interest expense on borrowings increased $1.7 million to $4.9 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $3.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1996. Th increase in interest expense was primarily due to the increase in average borrowings to $79.6 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $49.4 million for the year ended June 30, 1996, partially offset by the decrease in the average cost of borrowings to 6.18% for the year ended June 30, 1997 from 6.50% for the year ended June 30 1996. PROVISION FOR ESTIMATED LOAN LOSSES The Company's provision for estimated loan losses decreased slightly to $557,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $575,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996. The current year's allowance for estimated loan losses reflects $352,000 in loan charge-offs as compared to $310,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996. The difference between the actual amount of charge-offs for the current year and the amount reflected in the provision represents an allocation for the growth in the loan portfolio during the year ended June 30, 1997 and management's concerns regarding the general market conditions continuing and the overall decline in real estate activity as well as the continuation of soft real estate values in our primary market area. The allowance 52 55 for estimated loan losses increased to $1.3 million, or 0.44% of gross loans receivable, at June 30, 1997 from $1.1 million, or 0.41% of gross loans receivable at June 30, 1996. As a percentage of non-performing loans, the allowance for loan losses increase to 74.34% at June 30, 1997 compared to 53.92% at June 30, 1996. The amount of the provision and allowance for loan losses is influenced by current economic conditions, actual loss experience, industry trends and other factors such as adverse economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Association's allowance for estimated loan losses. Such agencies may require the Association to recognize additions to the allowance based upon judgments which differ from those of management. Although management uses the best information available, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary due to economic, operating, regulatory and other conditions that may be beyond management's control. OTHER INCOME Other income for the Company increased to $1.2 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 compared to $612,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996, an increase of $606,000, or 99.0%. The increase in non-interest income was primarily due to the improvement in the activity on real estate owned and to net gains recorded on sales of mortgage-backed securities and other investments available for sale. The Company posted a net gain on real estate owned activity totaling $157,000 for the year ending June 30, 1997 as compared to a net loss of $271,000 for the year ending June 30, 1996, an increase of $428,000. This improvement was primarily the result of a $344,000 favorable litigation settlement received in May 1997; culminating a litigation process relating to a land development real estate owned foreclosed on by the Company in 1992. The Company posted a net gain of $148,000 in regards to sales of investments and mortgage-backed securities during the year ended June 30, 1997 as compared to a net loss of $12,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996. The Company's income derived from loan servicing operations and deposit fees were approximately the same for both the years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES General and administrative expenses increased by $2.0 million to $9.0 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $7.0 million for the year ended June 30, 1996. Included in the expenses for the year ended June 30, 1997, was the $1.3 million one-time special assessment to recapitalize the SAIF insurance fund. This special assessment represented 65.7 basis points of the deposits held by the Association as of March 31, 1995. Compensation and other employee benefits increased by $539,000 to $4.1 million for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $3.6 million for the year ended June 30, 1996. The increase in compensation costs was primarily attributable to the increase in staff primarily due to the addition of two branches. Employee benefits increased as a result of the costs related to the employee stock ownership and the stock compensation plans which increased to $472,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $302,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996. Equipment and data processing costs increased to $932,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $748,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996 primarily as a result of the completion of a conversion to a new data processor which included approximately $100,000 in non-recurring expenses. The increase in costs was due to the replacement of outdated equipment, to the initial costs of the conversion and to the deconversion 53 56 costs of the previous data processor. The regular insurance assessments paid to the FDIC decreased to $313,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 from $472,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996 as a result of the lowering of the assessment rate as of January 1, 1997, following the recapitalization of SAIF. INCOME TAX Income tax expense was $534,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 compared to $432,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996, representing an increase of $102,000. This increase is principally due to the increase in taxable income in fiscal 1997 as compared to fiscal 1996. See Note 11 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Company's income taxes. COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT JUNE 30, 1997 AND JUNE 30, 1996 The Company's total assets increased to $409.3 million at June 30, 1997 from $336.1 million at June 30, 1996, an increase of $73.2 million. During the year, the Company increased its loans receivable held for investment by $28.6 million to $284.6 million at June 30, 1997 from $256.0 million at June 30, 1996 primarily as a result of the $33.3 million in loans purchased throughout the year. All of the loans purchased were adjustable rate mortgage loans indexed to COFI, with $4.1 million being multi- family loans and the remainder single-family mortgages. The properties securing the loans purchased are located primarily in southern California, but are dispersed throughout a wider area than the Company's normal lending area. The Company's investment in mortgage-backed securities increased to a total of $76.2 million at June 30, 1997 from $44.3 million at June 30, 1996. The increase in this portfolio reflects the continuation of management's strategy to increase the interest-earning assets of the Company to enhance the net interest income of the Company. Cash and short-term bank obligations increased to $22.7 million at June 30, 1997 from $8.9 million at June 30, 1996 primarily as a result of the increase in cash flow generated from the loans receivable portfolio due to a slower than expected lending market and the desire of management to maintain more additional liquid assets. The Company's investment in premises and equipment increased to $3.9 million at June 30, 1997 from $3.0 million at June 30, 1996 due to the purchase of new computer equipment as part of the Company's conversion to a new data processor, and due to the improvements required as part of two additional branches and other branch upgrades. Prepaid expenses and other assets increased to $1.2 million at June 30, 1997 from $437,000 primarily as a result of the premium paid on the branch acquisition of approximately $500,000. The total liabilities of the Company increased to $379.4 million at June 30, 1997 from $304.5 million at June 30, 1996. The increase in liabilities was in support of the strategy to enhance net interest income. Total deposit accounts increased to $288.3 million at June 30, 1997 from $234.0 million aided by the acquisition of $20.2 million in deposits acquired in a branch acquisition. Core deposits (excluding certificates of deposit) increased to $65.9 million, or 22.9% of total deposits, at June 30, 1997 from $48.0 million, or 20.5% of total deposits, at June 54 57 30, 1996. The growth of core deposits is an integral part of management's strategy to enhance net interest income and build customer relationships. The Company continued to utilize borrowings as a means to enhance net interest income and provide for longer-term financing of its asset base. As of June 30, 1997, the Company increased its borrowings from the FHLB to $77.9 million from $67.5 million at June 30, 1996. Also, the Company borrowed $9.4 million through securities sold under agreements to repurchase. The Company's stockholders' equity was $29.9 million at June 30, 1997, a decrease of $1.7 million from the $31.6 million in stockholders' equity at June 30, 1996. The decrease in stockholders' equity in fiscal 1997 was due primarily to the repurchase of 249,100 shares of stock to be held as treasury stock with a total value of $2.9 million. The reduction of stockholders' equity caused by the stock repurchase was partially offset by the $731,000 in net earnings and the $273,000 in amortization of deferred stock compensation. IMPACT OF INFLATION The Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto presented herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollar amounts without considering the changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Company's operations. Unlike industrial companies, nearly all of the assets and liabilities of the Compan are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on the Company's performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the price of goods and services. IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In June 1996, the FASB issued SFAS No. 125, ACCOUNTING FOR TRANSFERS AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND EXTINGUISHMENTS OF LIABILITIES, which was amended by SFAS No. 127, DEFERRAL OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 125. These statements provide accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. SFAS No. 125, as amended, is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after December 31, 1996 or December 31, 1997 for certain transactions. The adoption of SFAS No. 125 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME and SFAS No. 131, DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION. SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 131 establishes standards of reporting by publicly held business enterprises and disclosure of information about operating segments in annual financial statements to a lesser extent, in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. SFAS No. 130 and 131 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. As both SFAS No. 130 and 131 deal with financial statement disclosure, 55 58 the Company does not anticipate the adoption of these new standards will have a material impact on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. SFAS No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES, was issued in June 1998 and establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. Earlier application is encouraged, but it is permitted only as of the beginning of iscal quarter that begins after June 1998. The adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 133 is not expected to have a material impact on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company. YEAR 2000 The Year 2000 Issue concerns the potential impact of historic computer software code that only utilizes two digits to represent the calendar year (e.g., "98" for "1998"). Software so developed could produce inaccurate or unpredictable results upon January 1, 2000, when current and future dates present a lower two digit year number than dates in the prior century. The Company, similar to most financial services providers, is subject to the potential impact of the Year 2000 Issue due to the nature o financial information. Potential impacts to the Company may arise from software, hardware, and equipment both within the Company's direct control and outside of the Company's ownership, yet with which the Company electronically or operationally interfaces (i.e., vendors providing or receiving service bureau information). Financial institution regulators have recently increased their focus upon year 2000 issues, issuing guidance concerning the responsibilities of senior management and directors. Year 2000 testing and certification is being addressed as a key safety and soundness issue in conjunction with regulatory exams. In order to address the year 2000 issue, the Company has developed and implemented a five phase plan divided into the following major components: - - awareness - - assessment - - renovation - - validation - - implementation The Company has completed the first two phases of the plan and is currently working internally and with external vendors on the final three phases. Because the Company outsources its data processing and item processing operations, a significant component of the year 2000 Plan is to work with external vendors to test and certify their systems as year 2000 compliant. The Company replaced its internal retail branch computer system and its back office computer systems in 1997 with personal computers which are year 2000 ready. The software used in these systems, both purchased and related to our external data processing vendors, is currently being tested for year 2000 readiness. Also, the Company is currently testing its primary data processor 56 59 for year 2000 readiness. The Company has contacted its primary vendors and others with whom it relies on to assure their systems will be year 2000 ready. However, there can be no assurance that these systems of other vendors will be year 2000 ready or that an such failure in readiness by such vendors would not have an adverse effect on the Company's operations. Another important segment of the Year 2000 Plan is to identify those loan customers whose possible lack of year 2000 preparedness might expose the Bank to financial loss. Upon completion of its review and testing of both internal operations and external vendors, the Company will complete its contingency plans. It is expected that such contingency plans will be completed by January 31, 1999. The Company expects its year 2000 date conversion project to be completed by March 31, 1999. During the execution of this project, the Company will incur internal staff costs as well as consulting and other expenses related to enhancements necessary to prepare the systems for the year 2000. Since the Company replaced many of the internal systems with year 2000 compliant personal computers in 1997, the expenses incurred to bring the Company to year 2000 compliance will be expensed as incurred, with the majority of such costs being the reallocation of current staff to bring about this readiness. The future expenses of the year 2000 project as well as the related potential effect on the Company's earnings is not expected to have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations. 57 60 ITEM 8.

AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS FOR PRESENTATION - SGV Bancorp, Inc. (SGV) is a savings and loan holding company incorporated in the state of Delaware that was organized for the purpose of acquiring all of the capital stock of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of San Gabriel Valley (the Association) upon its conversion from a federally chartered mutual savings and loan association to a federally chartered stock savings and loan association. On June 28, 1995, SGV completed its sale of 2,727,656 shares of its common stock through subscription and community offerings to the Association's depositors, Board of Directors, management, employees and the public and used approximately 60% of the net proceeds from such sales to purchase all of the Association's common stock issued in the Association's conversion to stock form. Such business combination was accounted for at historical cost in a manner similar to a pooling of interests. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS - The business of SGV consists principally of the business of the Association. SGV's only significant assets are cash, investments and mortgage-backed securities, the capital stock of the Association and SGV's loan to the Association's employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) (Notes 13 and 16). SGV has no significant liabilities. The Association is primarily engaged in attracting deposits from the general public in the areas in which its branches are located and investing such deposits and other available funds primarily in mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences. To a lesser extent, the Association invests in multi-family residential mortgages, commercial real estate, consumer and other loans. As of June 30, 1998, the Association operated eight branch offices located in the San Gabriel Valley. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SGV Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Federal Savings and Loan Association of San Gabriel Valley and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Covina Service Company (collectively, the Company). All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. INVESTMENT SECURITIES AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES - The Company classifies investments in debt and equity securities into three categories: held to maturity, trading, and available for sale. Debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held to maturity securities and reported at amortized cost. Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near-term are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. The Company has no trading securities. Debt and equity securities not classified as either held to maturity securities or trading securities are classified as available for sale securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net of deferred taxes. 68 71 SGV BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company designates investment securities and mortgage-backed securities as held to maturity or available for sale upon acquisition. Gains or losses on the sales of investment securities and mortgage-backed securities available for sale are determined on the specific identification method. Premiums and discounts on investment securities and mortgage-backed securities are amortized or accreted using the interest method over the expected lives of the related securities. LOANS RECEIVABLE - The Company originates mortgage loans for both portfolio investment and sale in the secondary market. During the period of origination, mortgage loans are designated as held for sale or held for investment. Loans receivable held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value determined on an aggregate basis and include loan origination costs and related fees. Any transfers of loans held for sale to the investment portfolio are recorded at the lower of cost or estimated market value on the transfer date. Loans receivable held for investment are carried at amortized cost adjusted for unamortized premiums and discounts and net of deferred loan origination fees and allowance for estimated loan losses. Premiums and discounts on loans are amortized or accreted using the interest method over the expected lives of the loans. These loans are not adjusted to the lower of cost or estimated market value because it is management's intention, and the Company has the ability, to hold these loans to maturity. The Company considers a loan impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all contractual principal and interest payments under the terms of the loan agreement. Loans are evaluated for impairment as part of the Company's normal internal asset review process. The Company evaluates all loans in its portfolio on an individual basis with the exception of one- to four-family residential mortgage loans and consumer lines of credit, which are evaluated on a collective basis. Also, loans which have delays in payments of less than four months are not necessarily considered impaired unless other factors apply to the loans. The accrual of interest income on impaired loans is discontinued when, in management's opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due. When the interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received. Where impairment is considered permanent, a charge-off is recorded; where impairment is considered temporary, an allowance is established. Impaired loans which are performing under the contractual terms are reported as performing loans, and cash payments are allocated to principal and interest in accordance with the terms of the loan. Interest on loans is credited to income as earned. Interest receivable is accrued only if deemed collectible. Generally, interest is not accrued on loans delinquent three payments or more. Loan origination and commitment fees and certain incremental direct loan origination costs are deferred, and the net fees or costs for loans held for investment are amortized into interest income over the contractual lives of the related loans. Other loan fees and charges 69 72 SGV BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- representing service costs for the repayments of loans, delinquent payments or miscellaneous loan services are recorded as income when collected. The Company may hedge its interest rate exposure on loans held for sale and commitments to originate loans by entering into forward sales contracts. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on forward sales contracts are deferred and recognized as adjustments to the gain or loss on sale of loans. REAL ESTATE ACQUIRED THROUGH FORECLOSURE - Properties acquired through foreclosure are initially recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell through a charge to the allowance for estimated loan losses. Subsequent declines in value are charged to operations. ALLOWANCES FOR ESTIMATED LOAN AND REAL ESTATE LOSSES - Valuation allowances for estimated loan and real estate losses are provided when any significant decline in value is deemed to have occurred. Specific loss allowances are established for loans that are deemed impaired, if the fair value of the loan or the collateral is estimated to be less than the gross carrying value of the loan. In estimating losses, management considers the estimated sales price, cost of refurbishment, payment of delinquen taxes, cost of holding the property (if an extended period is anticipated) and cost of disposal. Additionally, general valuation allowances for loan and real estate losses have been established. The estimates for these allowances are normally influenced by current economic conditions, actual loss experience, industry trends and other factors such as the current adverse economic conditions experienced (including declining real estate values) in the area in which the Company's lending and real estate activities are based. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Association's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Association to recognize additions to the allowance based on judgments different from those of management. Although management uses the best information available to make these estimates, future adjustments to the allowances may be necessary due to economic, operating, regulatory and other conditions that may be beyond the Company's control. PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT - Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company depreciates its premises and equipment primarily by use of the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows
Office buildings 20 to 40 years Furniture, fixtures and equipment 3 to 10 years
INCOME TAXES - The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES. Under this standard, 70 73 SGV BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the tax effects of the temporary differences in the bases of certain assets and liabilities for tax and financial statement purposes, calculated at currently effective tax rates, of future deductible or taxable amounts attributable to events that have been recognized on a cumulative basi in the financial statements. The Company files its tax returns on a fiscal year basis. EARNINGS PER SHARE - In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 128, EARNINGS PER SHARE. SFAS No. 128 replaced the calculation of primary and diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants, and convertible securities, unlike primary earnings per share. Diluted earnings per share is very similar to fully diluted earnings per share under previous guidance. All earnings-per-shar amounts for previous periods have been restated to conform with SFAS No. 128. RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS - In June 1996, the FASB issued SFAS No. 125, ACCOUNTING FOR TRANSFERS AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND EXTINGUISHMENTS OF LIABILITIES, which was amended by SFAS No. 127, DEFERRAL OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 125. These statements provide accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. SFAS No. 125, as amended, is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after December 31, 1996 or December 31, 1997 for certain transactions. The adoption of SFAS No. 125 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME and SFAS No. 131, DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION. SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 131 establishes standards of reporting by publicly held business enterprises and disclosure of information about operating segments in annual financial statements to a lesser extent, in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. SFAS Nos. 130 and 131 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. As both SFAS Nos. 130 and 131 deal with financial statement disclosure, the Company does not anticipate the adoption of these new standards will have a material impact on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. SFAS No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES, was issued in June 1998 and establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. Earlier application is encouraged, but it is permitted only as of the beginning of any fiscal quarter that begins after June 1998. The adoption of the provisions 71 74 SGV BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- of SFAS No. 133 is not expected to have a material impact on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company. USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting years. Actual results could differ from those estimates. PRESENTATION OF CASH FLOWS - All highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain amounts in the 1997 and 1996 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with classifications in 1998. 2. REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS AND OTHER REGULATORY MATTERS The Association is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory - and possibly additional discretionary - actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Association's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Association must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Association's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Association's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Quantitative measures that have been established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Association to maintain minimum capital amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table). The Association's primary regulatory agency, the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS), requires that the Association maintain minimum ratios of tangible capital (as defined in the regulations) of 1.5%, core capital (as defined) of 3%, and total risk-based capital (as defined) of 8%. The Association is also subject to prompt corrective action capital requirement regulations set forth by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The FDIC requires the Association to maintain a minimum of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, that as of June 30, 1998 and 1997, the Association meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. 72 75 SGV BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As of June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1997, the most recent notification from the OTS categorized the Association as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Association must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Association's category. The Association's actual capital amounts and ratios are also presented in the table.

The OTS issued final regulations which set forth the methodology for calculating an interest rate risk component that is being incorporated into the OTS regulatory capital rules. Under the new regulations, only savings institutions with above normal interest rate risk exposure are required to maintain additional capital. This additional capital would increase the amount of a savings institution's otherwise required risk-based capital requirement. The final 73 76 SGV BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- rule became effective January 1, 1994 an implementation will not begin until the Association has been notified by the OTS. Management believes that, under current regulations, the Association will continue to meet its minimum capital requirements in the foreseeable future. However, events beyond the control of the Association, such as changing interest rates or a further downturn in the economy in areas where the Association has most of its loans, could adversely affect future earnings and, consequently, the ability of the Association to meet its future minimum capital requirements. At periodic intervals, both the OTS and the FDIC routinely examine the Association's financial statements as part of their legally prescribed oversight of the savings and loan industry. Based on these examinations, the regulators can direct that the Association's financial statements be adjusted in accordance with their findings. As of August 27, 1998, the OTS is in the process of examining the Association. This examination and future examinations by the OTS or FDIC could include a review of certain transactions or other amounts reported in the Association's 1998 financial statements. Adjustments, if any, cannot presently be determined. On September 30, 1996, the President signed into law the Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996 (the Funds Act), which, among other things, imposes a special one-time assessment on Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) member institutions, including the Association, to recapitalize the SAIF. As required by the Funds Act, the FDIC imposed a special assessment of 65.7 basis points on SAIF-assessable deposits held as of March 31, 1995, payable November 27, 1996. The special assessment was recognized as an expense in the quarter ended September 30, 1996 and is tax deductible. The Association took a pre-tax charge of $1,332,000 as a result of the SAIF special assessment. The Funds Act also spreads the obligations for payment of the Financing Corporation (FICO) bonds across all SAIF and Bank Insurance Fund (BIF) members. Beginning on January 1, 1997, BIF deposits are assessed for FICO payments at a rate of 20% of the rate assessed on SAIF deposits. Based on current estimates by the FDIC, BIF deposits will be assessed a FICO payment of 0.3 basis points, while SAIF deposits will pay an estimated 6.1 basis points on the FICO bonds. Full pro rata sharing of the FICO payments between BIF and SAIF members will occur on the earlier of January 1, 2000 or the date the BIF and SAIF are merged. The Funds Act specifies that the BIF and SAIF will be merged on January 1, 1999 provided no savings associations remain as of that time. As a result of the Funds Act, the FDIC lowered SAIF assessments to 0 to 27 basis points effective January 1, 1997, a range comparable to that of BIF members. However, SAIF members will continue to make the higher FICO payments described above. Management 74 77 SGV BANCORP, INC.

The Company becomes involved in claims and litigation arising from its normal business activities. After consultation with legal counsel, management is of the opinion that the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from the disposition of such claims and litigation would not be material to th e consolidated financial statements of the Company. The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Moreover, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Collateral generally includes residential or commercial real estate. For forward sales contracts, the contract or notional amounts do not represent exposure to credit loss. The Company controls the credit risk of its forward sales contracts through limits and monitoring procedures. At June 30, 1998 and 1997, the Company had loan funding commitments of approximately $3.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively. At June 30, 1998 and 1997, the majority were fixed rate mortgage loans. Loan funding commitments are generally for a period of 15 to 45 days. also, the Company had agreed to purchase approximately $9.3 million in 1-4 unit single-family adjustable rate mortgage loans from another financial institution scheduled to fund in July 1998. 88 91 SGV BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company uses forward sales contracts to hedge interest rate exposure generally on secondary mortgage market operations. As of June 30, 1998, the Company had $1.0 million in open forward sales contracts with no material unrecorded gains/losses. As of June 30, 1997, the company had $250,000 in open forward sales contracts. The Company provides a profit-sharing plan and a 401(k) plan, which are offered to officers and full-time employees meeting the eligibility requirements specified in the plans. The plans provide for optional annual contributions by the Company at the discretion of the board of directors. The 401(k) plan is a defined contributory plan which allows employee contributions. Total profit-sharing and 401(k) plan expenses were $79,000, $68,000 and $39,000 for the years ended June 30, 1998, 1997 and 1996 respectively. The Company's maximum annual contribution is 15% of the amount of eligible compensation. The Company previously maintained a separate defined benefit plan covering only outside Board of Director members. Such plan was terminated during the year ended June 30, 1995. Participants currently remaining in the plan will be paid out according to existing plan terms. No further contri butions will be made by the Company. Pension expense was $13,000, $15,000 and $16,000 for the years ended June 30, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The accrued pension liability cost was approximately $161,000 at June 30, 1998. The Association established for eligible employees an ESOP and related trust that became effective upon the conversion of the Association from a mutual to a stock savings and loan association (the Conversion). Full-time employees employed with the Association as of January 1, 1995 and full-time employees of the Company or the Association employed after such date, who have been credited with at least 1,000 hours during a 12-month period and who have attained the age of 21 will become participants. The ESOP purchased 7% of the common stock issued by SGV Bancorp, Inc. (see Note 1). The ESOP borrowed $1,528,000 from the Company in order to purchase the common stock. The loan will be repaid principally from the Association's contributions to the ESOP over a period of seven years, and the collateral for the loan will be the common stock purchased by the ESOP. The interest rate for the loan is 8%. At June 30, 1998 the outstanding balance of the loan was $982,000 and a total of 68,190 shares of common stock has been allocated to employee accounts. Shares purchased by the ESOP are pledged as collateral for the loan and will be held in a suspense account until released for allocation among participants as the loan is repaid. the pledged shares will be released annually from the suspense account in an amount proportional to the repayment of the ESOP loan for each plan year. The released shares will be allocated among the accounts of participants on the basis of the participant's compensation for the year of allocation. Participants generally become 100% vested in their ESOP account after six years of credited service or if their service was terminated due to death, early retirement, permanent 89 92 SGV BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- disability or a change in control. Prior to the completion of two years of credited service, a participant who terminates employment for reasons other than death, retirement, disability, or change of control of the Association or Company will not receive any benefit. Forfeitures will be reallocated among remaining participating employees, in the same proportion as contributions. Benefits may be payable upon death, retirement, disability or separation from service. The contributions to the ESOP are not fixed, so benefits payable under the ESOP cannot be estimated. The expense related to the ESOP for the year ended June 30, 1998 was approximately $469,000. At June 30, 1998, unearned compensation related to the ESOP approximated $873,000 and is shown as a reduction of stockholders' equity in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition. The Association maintains a non-qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) to provide certain officers and highly compensated employees with additional retirement benefits. The benefits provided under the SERP will make up the benefits lost to the SERP participants due to application of limitations on compensation and maximum benefits applicable to the Association's tax-qualified 401(k) plan and the ESOP. Benefits will be provided under the SERP at the same time and in the same form a the benefits will be provided under the 401(k) plan and the ESOP. Included in accrued expenses at June 30, 1998 is $23,000 of benefits related to the SERP. The Association has implemented a Directors' Deferred Fee Stock Unit Plan (Deferred Fee Plan) for its directors. The Deferred Fee Plan permits directors to defer receipt of directors' fees paid by the Association until their service with the Board of Directors terminates. The Deferred Fee Plan also permits directors to defer receipt of the vested accrued benefit otherwise payable from the terminated Director's Retirement Plan into the director's account under the terms of the Deferred Fee Plan. The directors' deferred fees are credited to the account of participating directors under the terms of the Deferred Fee Plan and are credited with earnings based on several investment choices, including Company stock. If a participant chooses to have deferred fees credited to a stock unit account with the Deferred Fee Plan, the participant will receive a benefit based on the value and appreciation in the stock of the Company. Included in accrued expenses at June 30, 1998 is $302,000 of deferrals related to the Deferred Fee Plan. At the Company's Annual Meeting of Stockholders on January 17, 1996, the stockholders approved the First Federal Savings and Loan Association of San Gabriel Valley 1995 Master Stock Compensation Plan (the Stock Compensation Plan). The Stock Compensation Plan, which is a non-qualified plan, was authorized to acquire up to 81,829 shares of the Company common stock either directly for the Company or through purchases in the open market to be used for the granting of plan share grants and plan share allocations. The Association contributed funds to the Stock Compensation Plan to enable the Stock Compensation Plan trustees to acquire the necessary shares of the common stock. The 81,829 shares were 90 93 SGV BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- acquired in several transactions at an average market price of $9.469 per share. These shares represent deferred compensation and have been accounted for as a reduction in stockholders' equity in the accompanying consolidated statement of financial condition. Such shares are held in trust. The Stock Compensation Plan allocated 16,366 shares to current and future directors with the remaining shares allocated to employees. The shares allocated to directors are granted in equal installments over a five-year period. The shares allocated to employees are granted over a five-year period with a percentage considered as a base grant, and the remaining percentages granted if the Company achieves certain performance levels. The percentages are determined by the Company's compensation committee. The expense related to the Stock Compensation Plan for the year ended June 30, 1998 was approximately $255,000. At the Company's Annual Meeting of Stockholders on January 17, 1996, the stockholders approved the SGV Bancorp, Inc. 1995 Master Stock Option Plan (the 1995 Stock Option Plan). The Stock Option Plan authorizes the granting of options equal to 272,765 shares of common stock. All officers and other employees of the Company and its affiliates, and directors who are not also serving as employees of the Company or any of its affiliates are eligible to receive awards under the Stock Option Plan. Options granted under the 1995 Stock Option Plan will be made at an exercisable price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant. Options expire ten years from the date of the grant. Awards granted to employees may include incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options and limited rights which are exercisable only upon a change in control of the Company. Awards granted to nonemployee directors are nonstatutory options. Options are exercisable in five equal annual i nstallments of 20%, commencing one year from the date of the grant. Also, at the Company's Annual Meeting of Stockholders on November 20, 1997, the stockholders approved the SGV Bancorp, Inc. 1997 Stock-Based Incentive Plan (the 1997 Stock-Based Incentive Plan). This plan authorizes the granting of options to purchase common stock, option-related awards and awards of common stock equivalent to one percent of the adjusted average common stock outstanding used to calculate diluted earnings per share as reported in the annual report for the preceding year for each calendar year from 1997 to 2006. In no event will more than 230,000 shares be granted under this plan which is available to all officers, other employees and outside Directors. Options granted under the 1997 Stock-Based Incentive Plan will be made at an exercisable price equal to fair market value on the date of grant. Options expire ten years from the date of the grant. 91 94 SGV BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION, which establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans. This statement establishes a fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans. It encourages, but does not require, entities to adopt that method in place of the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES, for all arrangements under which employees receive shares of stock or other equity instruments of the employer or the employer incurs liabilities to employees in amounts based on the price of its stock. SFAS No. 123 also applies to transactions in which an entity issues its equity instruments to acquire goods or services from nonemployees. Those transactions must be accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The Company has elected to continue to apply the accounting provisions of APB No. 25 to its stock-based compensation awards to employees. Under APB No. 25, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Company's stock at the date of gr ant over the amount the director or employee must pay to acquire the stock. Because the plan provides for the issuance of options at a price of no less than the fair market value at the date of grant, no compensation cost has been recognized for the stock option components of the plans. Had compensation costs for the stock option components of the Plan been determined based upon the fair value at the date of grant consistent with SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated as follow as of June 30 for the years indicated:
1998 1997 1996 (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) Net income: As reported $ 1,487 $ 731 $ 594 Pro forma 1,218 469 463 Earnings per common share - Basic: As reported $ 0.63 $ 0.29 $ 0.22 Pro forma $ 0.52 $ 0.19 $ 0.17 Shares utilized in EPS calculations 2,344,980 2,482,391 2,707,674
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0% for both 92 95 SGV BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- years; risk-free interest rate of 5.50% for 1998, 6.50% for 1997 and 6.75% for 1996; expected life of 10 years for all years; and a volatility factor of 23.37% for 1998 and 18.79% for 1997 and 1996.

During the year ended June 30, 1995, the Company entered into employment agreements (Agreements) with its president/chief executive officer and its executive vice president/chief financial officer. The Agreements provide for three-year terms for both individuals commencing on June 28, 1995 which have been extended through June 28, 2001. The Agreements provide that, commencing on the first anniversary date and continuing each anniversary date thereafter, the Board of Directors may extend the Agreements for an additional year so that the remaining term shall be three years. The Agreements provide for the payment of severance benefits upon termination. 93 96 SGV BANCORP, INC.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The following disclosures of the estimated fair value of financial instruments is made in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 107, DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company using available market infor mation and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is necessarily required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts at June 30, 1998 and 1997:
1998 ------------------------------ CARRYING ESTIMATED AMOUNT FAIR VALUE (IN THOUSANDS) Assets: Cash, including short-term bank obligations $ 20,008 $ 20,008 Investment securities available for sale 19,221 19,221 Mortgage-backed securities available for sale 29,383 29,383 Mortgage-backed securities held to maturity 29,936 30,089 Loans receivable: Fixed 62,516 63,914 Variable 233,150 233,150 Federal Home Loan Bank stock 4,234 4,234 Liabilities: Term deposit accounts 199,452 200,130 Other deposit accounts 95,829 95,829 Borrowings 76,543 77,232 Off-balance sheet unrealized gains (losses) - Loan funding commitments - 6 Forward sales contracts - (2)

The estimated fair values of investment securities and mortgage-backed securities available for sale and held to maturity are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. The fair value of loans receivable with fixed interest rates is estimated by discounting future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings for the same remaining maturities. The fair value of nonperforming loans with a carrying value of approximately $1,911,000 and $1,699,000 at June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, was not estimated because it is not practicable to reasonably assess the credit adjustment that would be applied in the market place for such loans. These nonperforming loans are primarily residential real estate loans. The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock is based on its redemption value. 95 98 SGV BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The fair value of term deposit accounts is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair value of other deposit accounts is the amount payable on demand at June 30, 1998 and 1997. Rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of borrowings. For fixed-rate loan funding commitments, the fair value is estimated based on the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of forward sales contracts is based on dealer quotes. The fair value estimates presented herein are based on pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 1998 and 1997. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively reva lued for purposes of these consolidated financial statements since that date, and therefore, current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein. 15. CONVERSION TO CAPITAL STOCK FORM OF OWNERSHIP On June 28, 1995, the Association converted from a federally chartered mutual savings and loan association to a federally chartered stock savings and loan association. At that time, the Association established a liquidation account in an amount equal to its equity as reflected in the latest statement of financial condition used in the final conversion prospectus. The amount of the liquidation account as of March 31, 1995 was $13,763,000. The liquidation account will be maintained for the benefit of eligible account holders and supplemental eligible account holders who continue to maintain their accounts at the Association after the conversion. The liquidation account will be reduced annually to the extent that eligible account holders and supplemental eligible account holders have reduced their qualifying deposits as of each anniversary date. Subsequent increases will not restore an eligible account holder's or supplemental eligible account holder's interest in the liquidation account. In the event of a complete liquidation of the Association, each eligible account holder and supplemental eligible account holder will be entitled to receive a distribution from the liquidation account in an amount proportionate to the current adjusted qualifying balances for accounts then held. Subsequent to the conversion, the Association may not declare or pay cash dividends on or repurchase any of its shares of common stock if the effect thereof would cause equity to be reduced below applicable regulatory capital maintenance requirements or if such declaration and payment would otherwise violate regulatory requirements. 96 99 SGV BANCORP, INC.

WHEREAS, the Association wishes to assure itself of the services of Executive for the period provided in this Agreement; and WHEREAS, Executive is willing to serve in the employ of the Association on a full-time basis for said period. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, and upon the other terms and conditions hereinafter provided, the parties hereby agree as follows: 1. POSITION AND RESPONSIBILITIES. During the period of his employment hereunder, Executive agrees to serve President and Chief Executive Officer of the Association. Executive shall render administrative and management services to the Association such as are customarily performed by persons in a similar executive capacity. During said period, Executive also agrees to serve, if elected, as an officer and director of the Holding Company or any subsidiary of the Association. 2. TERMS AND DUTIES. (a) The period of Executive's employment under this Agreement shall be deemed to have commenced as of the date first above written and shall continue for a period of thirty-six (36) full calendar months thereafter (the "initial term"). Commencing on the first anniversary date of this Agreement, and continuing on each anniversary date thereafter, the disinterested members of the board of directors of the Association ("Board") may extend the Agreement an additional year such that the remaining term of the Agreement shall be three (3) years unless the Executive elects not to extend the term of the Agreement by giving written notice in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement. The Board will review the Agreement and Executive's performance annually for purposes of determining whether to extend the Agreement and the rationale and results thereof shall be included in the minutes of the Board's meeting. The Board shall give notice to the Executive as soon as possible after such review as to whether the Agreement is to be extended. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, however, in the event of a Change in Control as hereinafter defined in Section 5, the Agreement shall be automatically renewed such that the initial term of 1 2 employment shall commence on the date the Change in Control occurs and the term of employment shall end on the date three (3) years thereafter. (b) During the period of Executive's employment hereunder, except for periods of absence occasioned by illness, reasonable vacation periods, and reasonable leaves of absence, Executive shall devote substantially all his business time, attention, skill, and efforts to the faithful performance of his duties hereunder including activities and services related to the organization, operation and management of the Association and participation in community and civic organizations; provided, however, that, with the approval of the Board, as evidenced by a resolution of such Board, from time to time, Executive may serve, or continue to serve, on the boards of directors of, and hold any other offices or positions in, other companies, which, in such Board's judgment, will not present any conflict of interest with the Association, or materially affect the performance of Executive's duties pursuant to this Agreement. Executive may also serve, or continue to serve, on the boards of directors of, and hold any other offices or positions in, community and civic organizations, which, in the Board's judgment, will not present any conflict of interest with the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, or materially affect the performance of Executive's duties pursuant to this Agreement; provided Executive notify the Board of such activity and the Board does not take Board action to object to such activity. (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Executive's employment with the Association may be terminated by the Association or the Executive during the term of this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 3. COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT. (a) The Association shall pay Executive as compensation a salary of not less than $188,256 per year ("Base Salary"). Base Salary shall also include any amounts of compensation deferred by Executive under any tax qualified or unqualified plan maintained by the Association. Such Base Salary shall be payable semi-monthly. During the period of this Agreement, Executive's Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually; the first such review will be made no later than one year from the date of this Agreement. Such review shall be conducted by the Board or by a Committee of the Board, delegated such responsibility by the Board. The Committee or the Board may increase Executive's Base Salary. Any increase in Base Salary shall become the "Base Salary" for purposes of this Agreement from the date of such increase. In addition to the Base Salary provided in this Section 3(a), the Association shall also provide Executive, at no premium cost to Executive, with all such other benefits as are provided uniformly to permanent full-time employees of the Association. (b) The Executive shall be entitled to participate in any employee benefit plans, arrangements and perquisites substantially equivalent to those in which Executive was participating or otherwise deriving benefit from immediately prior to the beginning of the term of this Agreement, and the Association will not, without Executive's prior written consent, make any changes in such plans, arrangements or perquisites which would materially adversely affect Executive's rights or benefits thereunder; except to the extent such changes are made applicable to all Association 2 3 employees eligible to participate in such plans, arrangements and perquisites on a non-discriminatory basis. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Subsection (b), Executive shall be entitled to participate in or receive benefits under any employee benefit plans, including but not limited to, retirement plans, supplemental retirement plans, pension plans, profit-sharing plans, stock option or restricted stock award plans, health-and-accident plans, medical coverage or any other employee benefit plan or arrangement made available by the Association in the future to its senior executives and key management employees, subject to and on a basis consistent with the terms, conditions and overall administration of such plans and arrangements. Executive shall be entitled to incentive compensation and bonuses as provided in any plan of the Association in which Executive is eligible to participate. Nothing paid to the Executive under any such plan or arrangement will be deemed to be in lieu of other compensation to which the Executive is entitled under this Agreement. (c) In addition to the Base Salary provided for by paragraph (a) of this Section 3 and other compensation provided for by paragraph (b) of this Section 3, the Association shall pay or reimburse Executive for all reasonable travel and other reasonable expenses incurred by Executive performing his obligations under this Agreement and may provide such additional compensation in such form and such amounts as the Board may from time to time determine. 4. PAYMENTS TO EXECUTIVE UPON AN EVENT OF TERMINATION. (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination (as herein defined) during the Executive's term of employment under this Agreement, the provisions of this Section shall apply. As used in this Agreement, an "Event of Termination" shall mean and include any one or more of the following: (i) the termination by the Association or the Holding Company of Executive's full-time employment hereunder for any reason other than a termination governed by Section 5(a) hereof, or Termination for Cause, as defined in Section 7 hereof; (ii) Executive's resignation from the Association's employ upon any (A) failure to elect or reelect or to appoint or reappoint Executive as President and Chief Executive Officer, unless consented to by the Executive, (B) a material change in Executive's function, duties, or responsibilities with the Association, which change would cause Executive's position to become one of lesser responsibility, importance, or scope from the position and attributes thereof described in Section 1, above, unless consented to by Executive, (C) a relocation of Executive's principal place of employment by more than 30 driving miles from its location at the effective date of this Agreement, unless consented to by the Executive, (D) a material reduction in the benefits and perquisites to the Executive from those being provided as of the effective date of this Agreement, unless consented to by the Executive, (E) a liquidation or dissolution of the Association or Holding Company, or (F) breach of this Agreement by the Association. Upon the occurrence of any event described in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D), (E) or (F), above, Executive shall have the right to elect to terminate his employment under this Agreement by resignation upon not less than sixty (60) days prior written notice given within six full calendar months after the event giving rise to said right to elect. (b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, on the Date of Termination, as defined in Section 8, the Association shall pay Executive, or, in the event of his subsequent death, 3 4 his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be a sum equal to the payments due to the Executive for the remaining term of the Agreement, including but not limited to Base Salary, bonuses and any other cash deferred compensation paid or to be paid, to the Executive, and the amount equal to the annual contributions that would have been made on Executive's behalf to any employee benefit plans of the Association or the Holding Company during the remaining term of this Agreement based on contributions or payments made (on an annualized basis) at the Date of Termination; provided, however, that any payments pursuant to this subsection shall not, in the aggregate, exceed three times Executive's average annual compensation for the five most recent taxable years that Executive has been employed by the Association or such lesser number of years in the event that Executive shall have been employed by the Association for less than five years. In the event the Association is not in compliance with its minimum capital requirements or if such payments pursuant to this subsection (b) would cause the Association's capital to be reduced below its minimum regulatory capital requirements, such payments shall be deferred until such time as the Association or successor thereto is in capital compliance. At the election of the Executive, which election is to be made prior to an Event of Termination, such payments shall be made in a lump sum as of the Executive's Date of Termination. In the event that no election is made, payment to Executive will be made on a monthly basis in approximately equal installments during the remaining term of the Agreement. Such payments shall not be reduced in the event the Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment. (c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the Association will cause to be continued for the Executive and his previously covered dependents life, medical, dental and disability coverage that the Executive agrees is substantially equivalent to the coverage maintained by the Association or the Holding Company for Executive and his dependents prior to his termination at no cost to the Executive, except to the extent such coverage may be changed in its application to all Association or Holding Company employees. Such coverage shall cease upon the expiration of the remaining term of this Agreement. 5. CHANGE IN CONTROL. (a) For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change in Control" of the Association or Holding Company shall mean an event of a nature that: (i) would be required to be reported in response to Item 1(a) of the current report on Form 8-K, as in effect on the date hereof, pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); or (ii) results in a Change in Control of the Association or the Holding Company within the meaning of the Home Owners' Loan Act of 1933, as amended, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the Rules and Regulations promulgated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") (or its predecessor agency), as in effect on the date hereof (provided, that in applying the definition of change in control as set forth under the rules and regulations of the OTS, the Board shall substitute its judgment for that of the OTS); or (iii) without limitation such a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred at such time as (A) any "person" (as the term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of voting securities of the Association or the Holding Company representing 20% or more of the Association's or the Holding Company's outstanding voting securities or right to acquire 4 5 such securities except for any voting securities of the Association purchased by the Holding Company and any voting securities purchased by any employee benefit plan of the Association or the Holding Company, or (B) individuals who constitute the Board on the date hereof (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election was approved by a vote of at least three-quarters of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board, or whose nomination for election by the Holding Company's stockholders was approved by a Nominating Committee solely composed of members who are Incumbent Board Members, shall be, for purposes of this clause (B), considered as though he were a member of the Incumbent Board, (C) a plan of reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Association or the Holding Company or similar transaction occurs or is effectuated in which the Association or Holding Company is not the resulting entity; provided, however, that such an event listed above will be deemed to have occurred or to have been effectuated upon the receipt of all required federal regulatory approvals not including the lapse of any statutory waiting periods, or (D) a proxy statement shall be distributed soliciting proxies from stockholders of the Holding Company, by someone other than the current management of the Holding Company, seeking stockholder approval of a plan of reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Holding Company or Association with one or more corporations as a result of which the outstanding shares of the class of securities then subject to such plan or transaction are exchanged for or converted into cash or property or securities not issued by the Association or the Holding Company shall be distributed; or (E) a tender offer is made and accepted for 20% or more of the voting securities of the Association or Holding Company then outstanding. (b) If a Change in Control has occurred pursuant to Section 5(a) or the Board has determined that a Change in Control has occurred, Executive shall be entitled to the benefits provided in paragraphs (c), and (d) of this Section 5 upon his subsequent termination of employment at any time during the term of this Agreement due to: (1) Executive's dismissal or (2) Executive's voluntary resignation unless such termination is because of his death or Termination for Cause. (c) Upon Executive's entitlement to benefits pursuant to Section 5(b), the Association shall pay Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, as severance pay or liquidated damages, or both a sum equal to the greater of: (1) the payments due for the remaining term of the Agreement; or 2) three (3) times Executive's highest annual compensation for the last 5 years. Such annual compensation shall include Base Salary, commissions, bonuses, contributions or accruals on behalf of Executive to any pension and profit sharing plans, any benefits to be paid or received under any stock-based benefit plan, severance payments, directors or committee fees and fringe benefits paid or to be paid to the Executive during such years. At the election of the executive, which election is to be made prior to a Change in Control, such payment shall be made: (a) in a lump sum, (b) on a semi-monthly basis in approximately equal installments over a period of thirty-six (36) months following the Executive's termination, or (c) on an annual basis in approximately equal installments over a period of thirty-six (36) months following the Executive's termination. Such payments shall not be reduced in the event Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment; provided however, that any payment under this provision shall not exceed three (3) times the Executive's average annual compensation. In the event the Association is not in compliance with its minimum capital 5 6 requirements or if such payments would cause the Association's capital to be reduced below its minimum regulatory capital requirements, such payments shall be deferred until such time as the Association or successor thereto is in capital compliance. At the election of the Executive, which election is to be made prior to a Change in Control, such payment shall be made in a lump sum as of the Executive's Date of Termination. In the event that no election is made, payment to the Executive will be made in approximately equal installments on a monthly basis over a period of thirty-six (36) months following the Executive's termination. Such payments shall not be reduced in the event Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment. (d) Upon the Executive's entitlement to benefits pursuant to Section 5(b), the Association will cause to be continued for the Executive and his previously covered dependents life, medical, dental and disability coverage that the Executive agrees is substantially equivalent to the coverage maintained by the Association for Executive and his dependents prior to his termination at no cost to the Executive. Such coverage and payments shall cease upon the expiration of thirty-six (36) months following the Date of Termination. 6. CHANGE OF CONTROL RELATED PROVISIONS Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5, in no event shall the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive under said paragraphs (the "Termination Benefits") constitute an "excess parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Code or any successor thereto, and in order to avoid such a result, Termination Benefits will be reduced, if necessary, to an amount (the "Non-Triggering Amount"), the value of which is one dollar ($1.00) less than an amount equal to three (3) times Executive's "base amount", as determined in accordance with said Section 280G. The allocation of the reduction required hereby among the Termination Benefits provided by Section 5 shall be determined by Executive. 7. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE. The term "Termination for Cause" shall mean termination because of Executive's personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, any breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease-and-desist order or material breach of any provision of this Agreement. In determining incompetence, the acts or omissions shall be measured against the generally prevailing standards of professional competence for executive officers having comparable positions in the savings institutions industry. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been Terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to him a Notice of Termination which shall include a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the members of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for that purpose (after reasonable notice to Executive and an opportunity for him, together with counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive was guilty of conduct justifying Termination for Cause and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. The Executive shall not have the right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after Termination for Cause. Any stock options and related limited rights granted to Executive under any stock option plan or any unvested awards 6 7 granted to Executive under any stock benefit plan of the Association, the Holding Company or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof, shall become null and void effective upon Executive's receipt of Notice of Termination for Cause pursuant to Section 8 hereof, and shall not be exercisable by or delivered to Executive at any time subsequent to such Termination for Cause. 8. NOTICE OF TERMINATION. (a) Any purported termination by the Association or by Executive shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a written notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive's employment under the provision so indicated. (b) "Date of Termination" shall mean the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of a Termination for Cause, shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of Termination is given); provided, however, that if a dispute regarding the Executive's termination exists, the "Date of Termination" shall be determined in accordance with Section 8(c) of the Agreement. (c) If, within thirty (30) days after any Notice of Termination is given, the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, except upon the occurrence of a Change in Control and voluntary termination by the Executive in which case the Date of Termination shall be the date specified in the Notice, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which the dispute is finally determined, either by mutual written agreement of the parties, by a binding arbitration award, or by a final judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (the time for appeal therefrom having expired and no appeal having been perfected) and provided further that the Date of Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute only if such notice is given in good faith and the party giving such notice pursues the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence. Amounts paid under this Section are in addition to all other amounts due under this Agreement and shall not be offset against or reduce any other amounts due under this Agreement. 9. POST-TERMINATION OBLIGATIONS. All payments and benefits to Executive under this Agreement shall be subject to Executive's compliance with this Section 9 for three (3) full years after the earlier of the expiration of this Agreement or termination of Executive's employment with the Association . Executive shall, upon reasonable notice, furnish such information and assistance to the Association as may reasonably be required by the Association in connection with any litigation in which it or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is, or may become, a party. 7 8 10. NON-COMPETITION. (a) Upon any termination of Executive's employment hereunder pursuant to Section 4 hereof, Executive agrees not to compete with the Association for a period of one (1) year following such termination in any city, town or county in which the Executive's normal business office is located and the Association has an office or has filed an application for regulatory approval to establish an office, determined as of the effective date of such termination, except as agreed to pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board. Executive agrees that during such period and within said cities, towns and counties, Executive shall not work for or advise, consult or otherwise serve with, directly or indirectly, any entity whose business materially competes with the depository, lending or other business activities of the Association. The parties hereto, recognizing that irreparable injury will result to the Association, its business and property in the event of Executive's breach of this Subsection 10(a) agree that in the event of any such breach by Executive, the Association, will be entitled, in addition to any other remedies and damages available, to an injunction to restrain the violation hereof by Executive, Executive's partners, agents, servants, employees and all persons acting for or under the direction of Executive. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the Association from pursuing any other remedies available to the Association for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from Executive. (b) Executive recognizes and acknowledges that the knowledge of the business activities and plans for business activities of the Association and affiliates thereof, as it may exist from time to time, is a valuable, special and unique asset of the business of the Association. Executive will not, during or after the term of his employment, disclose any knowledge of the past, present, planned or considered business activities of the Association or affiliates thereof to any person, firm, corporation, or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may disclose any knowledge of banking, financial and/or economic principles, concepts or ideas which are not solely and exclusively derived from the business plans and activities of the Association. Further, Executive may disclose information regarding the business activities of the Association to the OTS and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") pursuant to a formal regulatory request. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Executive of the provisions of this Section, the Association will be entitled to an injunction restraining Executive from disclosing, in whole or in part, the knowledge of the past, present, planned or considered business activities of the Association or affiliates thereof, or from rendering any services to any person, firm, corporation, other entity to whom such knowledge, in whole or in part, has been disclosed or is threatened to be disclosed. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the Association from pursuing any other remedies available to the Association for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from Executive. 11. SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. (a) All payments provided in this Agreement shall be timely paid in cash or check from the general funds of the Association. The Holding Company, however, unconditionally guarantees payment and provision of all amounts and benefits due hereunder to Executive and, if such amounts and benefits due from the Association are not timely paid or provided by the Association, such amounts and benefits shall be paid or provided by the Holding Company. 8 9 (b) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, to the extent that payments and benefits, as provided by this Agreement, are paid to or received by Executive under the Employment Agreement dated June 28, 1995, and amended and restated as of July 24, 1998, between Executive and the Holding Company, such compensation payments and benefits paid by the Holding Company will be subtracted from any amounts due simultaneously to Executive under similar provisions of this Agreement. Payments pursuant to this Agreement and the Holding Company Agreement shall be allocated in proportion to the level of activity and time expended on such activities by Executive as determined by the Holding Company and the Association on a quarterly basis. 12. EFFECT ON PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND EXISTING BENEFITS PLANS. This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior employment agreement between the Association or any predecessor of the Association and Executive, except that this Agreement shall not affect or operate to reduce any benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind elsewhere provided. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean that Executive is subject to receiving fewer benefits than those available to him without reference to this Agreement. 13. NO ATTACHMENT. (a) Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment, levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to affect any such action shall be null, void, and of no effect. (b) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Executive and the Association and their respective successors and assigns. 14. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. (a) This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. (b) No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future as to any act other than that specifically waived. 9 10 15. REQUIRED PROVISIONS. (a) The Association may terminate Executive's employment at any time, but any termination by the Association, other than Termination for Cause, shall not prejudice Executive's right to compensation or other benefits under this Agreement. Executive shall not have the right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after Termination for Cause as defined in Section 7 hereinabove. (b) If Executive is suspended from office and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Association's affairs by a notice served under Section 8(e)(3) or 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. ss.1818(e)(3) or (g)(1); the Association 's obligations under this contract shall be suspended as of the date of service, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, the Association may in its discretion (i) pay Executive all or part of the compensation withheld while their contract obligations were suspended and (ii) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of the obligations which were suspended. (c) If Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Association's affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4) or 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. ss.1818(e)(4) or (g)(1), all obligations of the Association under this contract shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but vested rights of the contracting parties shall not be affected. (d) If the Association is in default as defined in Section 3(x)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. ss.1813(x)(1) all obligations of the Association under this contract shall terminate as of the date of default, but this paragraph shall not affect any vested rights of the contracting parties. (e) All obligations of the Association under this contract shall be terminated, except to the extent determined that continuation of the contract is necessary for the continued operation of the institution, (i) by the Director of the OTS (or his designee), the FDIC or the Resolution Trust Corporation, at the time the FDIC enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Association under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. ss.1823(c); or (ii) by the Director of the OTS (or his designee) at the time the Director (or his designee) approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to the operations of the Association or when the Association is determined by the Director to be in an unsafe or unsound condition. Any rights of the parties that have already vested, however, shall not be affected by such action. (f) Any payments made to Executive pursuant to this Agreement, or otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon compliance with 12 U.S.C. ss.1828(k) and 12 C.F.R. ss.545.121 and any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. 10 11 16. SEVERABILITY. If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement, or any part of any provision, is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any part of such provision not held so invalid, and each such other provision and part thereof shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect. 17. HEADINGS FOR REFERENCE ONLY. The headings of sections and paragraphs herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement. 18. GOVERNING LAW. The validity, interpretation, performance and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, but only to the extent not superseded by federal law. 19. ARBITRATION. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by binding arbitration, conducted before a panel of three arbitrators sitting in a location selected by Executive within fifty (50) miles from the location of the Association, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court having jurisdiction; provided, however, that Executive shall be entitled to seek specific performance of his right to be paid until the Date of Termination during the pendency of any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement. In the event any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with Executive's termination is resolved in favor of Executive, whether by judgment, arbitration or settlement, Executive shall be entitled to the payment of all back-pay, including salary, bonuses and any other cash compensation, fringe benefits and any compensation and benefits due Executive under this Agreement. 20. PAYMENT OF COSTS AND LEGAL FEES. All reasonable costs and legal fees paid or incurred by Executive pursuant to any dispute or question of interpretation relating to this Agreement shall be paid or reimbursed by the Association if Executive is successful on the merits pursuant to a legal judgment, arbitration or settlement. 11 12 21.

(b) Any payments made to Executive pursuant to this Section are subject to and conditioned upon compliance with 12 C.F.R.ss. 545.121 and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder. 22.

Commencing on the first anniversary date of this Agreement, and continuing on each anniversary date thereafter, the board of directors of the Holding Company ("Board") may extend the Agreement an additional year such that the remaining term of the Agreement shall be three (3) years unless the Executive elects not to extend the term of the Agreement by giving written notice in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement. The Board will review the Agreement and the Executive's performance at least annually for purposes of determining whether to extend the Agreement and the results of such review shall be included in the minutes of the Board's meeting. The Board shall give notice to the Executive as soon as possible after such review as to whether the Agreement is to be extended. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, however, in the event of a Change in Control as hereinafter defined in Section 5, the Agreement shall be automatically renewed, such that the initial term of the Agreement shall 1 2 commence on the date the Change in Control occurs and the term of employment shall end on the date three (3) years thereafter. (b) During the period of Executive's employment hereunder, except for periods of absence occasioned by illness, reasonable vacation periods, and reasonable leaves of absence, Executive shall devote substantially all his business time, attention, skill, and efforts to the faithful performance of his duties hereunder including activities and services related to the organization, operation and management of the Holding Company and its, direct or indirect, subsidiaries ("Subsidiaries") and participation in community and civic organizations; provided, however, that, with the approval of the Board, as evidenced by a resolution of such Board, from time to time, Executive may serve, or continue to serve, on the boards of directors of, and hold any other offices or positions in, other companies, which, in such Board's judgment, will not present any conflict of interest with the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, or materially affect the performance of Executive's duties pursuant to this Agreement. Executive may also serve, or continue to serve, on the boards of directors of, and hold any other offices or positions in, community and civic organizations, which, in the Board's judgment, will not present any conflict of interest with the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, or materially affect the performance of Executive's duties pursuant to this Agreement; provided Executive notify the Board of such activity and the Board does not take Board action to object to such activity. (c) Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, Executive's employment with the Holding Company may be terminated by the Holding Company or the Executive during the term of this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 3. COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT. (a) The Holding Company or its Subsidiaries shall pay Executive as compensation a salary of not less than $188,256 per year ("Base Salary"). Base Salary shall also include any amounts of compensation deferred by Executive under any tax qualified or unqualified plan maintained by the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries. Such Base Salary shall be payable semi-monthly. During the period of this Agreement, Executive's Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually; the first such review will be made no later than one year from the date of this Agreement. Such review shall be conducted by the Board or by a Committee of the Board delegated such responsibility by the Board. The Committee or the Board may increase Executive's Base Salary. Any increase in Base Salary shall become the "Base Salary" for purposes of this Agreement from the date of such increase. In addition to the Base Salary provided in this Section 3(a), the Holding Company shall also provide Executive, at no premium cost to Executive, with all such other benefits as are provided uniformly to permanent full-time employees of the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries. (b) The Executive shall be entitled to participate in any employee benefit plans, arrangements and perquisites substantially equivalent to those in which Executive was participating or otherwise deriving benefit from immediately prior to the beginning of the term of this Agreement, and the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries will not, without Executive's prior written consent, 2 3 make any changes in such plans, arrangements or perquisites which would adversely affect Executive's rights or benefits thereunder, except to the extent such changes are made applicable to all Holding Company and Association employees eligible to participate in such plans, arrangements and perquisites on a non-discriminatory basis. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Subsection (b), Executive shall be entitled to participate in or receive benefits under any employee benefit plans, including, but not limited to, retirement plans, supplemental retirement plans, pension plans, profit-sharing plans, stock option or restricted stock award plans, health-and-accident plans, medical coverage or any other employee benefit plan or arrangement made available by the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries in the future to its senior executives and key management employees, subject to and on a basis consistent with the terms, conditions and overall administration of such plans and arrangements. Executive shall be entitled to incentive compensation and bonuses as provided in any plan of the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries in which Executive is eligible to participate. Nothing paid to the Executive under any such plan or arrangement will be deemed to be in lieu of other compensation to which the Executive is entitled under this Agreement. (c) In addition to the Base Salary provided for by paragraph (a) of this Section 3 and other compensation provided for by paragraph (b) of this Section 3, the Holding Company shall pay or reimburse Executive for all reasonable travel and other reasonable expenses incurred by Executive performing his obligations under this Agreement and may provide such additional compensation in such form and such amounts as the Board may from time to time determine. 4. PAYMENTS TO EXECUTIVE UPON AN EVENT OF TERMINATION. (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination (as herein defined) during the Executive's term of employment under this Agreement, the provisions of this Section shall apply. As used in this Agreement, an "Event of Termination" shall mean and include any one or more of the following: (i) the termination by the Holding Company of Executive's full-time employment hereunder for any reason other than termination governed by Section 5(a) hereof, or Termination for Cause, as defined in Section 7 hereof; (ii) Executive's resignation from the Holding Company's employ, upon, any (A) failure to elect or reelect or to appoint or reappoint Executive as President and Chief Executive Officer, unless consented to by the Executive, (B) a material change in Executive's function, duties, or responsibilities with the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, which change would cause Executive's position to become one of lesser responsibility, importance, or scope from the position and attributes thereof described in Section 1, above, unless consented to by the Executive, (C) a relocation of Executive's principal place of employment by more than 30 miles from its location at the effective date of this Agreement, unless consented to by the Executive, (D) a reduction in the benefits and perquisites to the Executive from those being provided as of the effective date of this Agreement, unless consented to by the Executive, (E) a liquidation or dissolution of the Holding Company or the Association, or (F) breach of this Agreement by the Holding Company. Upon the occurrence of any event described in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) (E) or (F), above, Executive shall have the right to elect to terminate his employment under this Agreement by resignation upon not less than sixty (60) days prior written notice given within six full calendar months after the event giving rise to said right to elect. 3 4 (b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, on the Date of Termination, as defined in Section 8, the Holding Company shall pay Executive, or, in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, a sum equal to the payments due the Executive for the remaining term of the Agreement, including Base Salary, bonuses and any other cash or deferred compensation paid or to be paid to the Executive, and the amount equal to the annual contributions that would have been made on Executive's behalf to any employee benefit plans of the Association or the Holding Company during the remaining term of this Agreement based on contributions or payments made (on an annualized basis) at the Date of Termination. At the election of the Executive, which election is to be made prior to an Event of Termination, such payments shall be made in a lump sum. In the event that no election is made, payment to the Executive will be made on a monthly basis in approximately equal installments during the remaining term of the Agreement. Such payments shall not be reduced in the event the Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment. (c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the Holding Company will cause to be continued for the Executive and his previously covered dependents life, medical, dental and disability coverage that the Executive agrees is substantially equivalent to the coverage maintained by the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries for Executive and his dependents prior to his termination at no cost to the Executive. Such coverage shall cease upon the expiration of the remaining term of this Agreement. 5. CHANGE IN CONTROL. (a) For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change in Control" of the Holding Company or the Association shall mean an event of a nature that; (i) would be required to be reported in response to Item 1(a) of the current report on Form 8-K, as in effect on the date hereof, pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); or (ii) results in a Change in Control of the Association or the Holding Company within the meaning of the Home Owners' Loan Act of 1933, as amended, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, and the Rules and Regulations promulgated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") (or its predecessor agency), as in effect on the date hereof (provided, that in applying the definition of change in control as set forth under the rules and regulations of the OTS, the Board shall substitute its judgment for that of the OTS); or (iii) without limitation such a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred at such time as (A) any "person" (as the term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of voting securities of the Association or the Holding Company representing 20% or more of the Association's or the Holding Company's outstanding voting securities or right to acquire such securities except for any voting securities of the Association purchased by the Holding Company and any voting securities purchased by any employee benefit plan of the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries'; or (B) individuals who constitute the Board on the date hereof (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election was approved by a vote of at least three-quarters of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board, or whose nomination for election by the Holding Company's stockholders was approved by a Nominating Committee solely 4 5 composed of members who are Incumbent Board members, shall be, for purposes of this clause (B), considered as though he were a member of the Incumbent Board; or (C) a plan of reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Association or the Holding Company or similar transaction occurs or is effectuated in which the Association or Holding Company is not the resulting entity; provided, however, that such an event listed above will be deemed to have occurred or to have been effectuated upon the receipt of all required federal regulatory approvals not including the lapse of any statutory waiting periods; or (D) a proxy statement shall be distributed soliciting proxies from stockholders of the Holding Company, by someone other than the current management of the Holding Company, seeking stockholder approval of a plan of reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Holding Company or Association with one or more corporations as a result of which the outstanding shares of the class of securities then subject to such plan or transaction are exchanged for or converted into cash or property or securities not issued by the Association or the Holding Company shall be distributed; or (E) a tender offer is made and accepted for 20% or more of the voting securities of the Association or Holding Company then outstanding. (b) If a Change in Control has occurred pursuant to Section 5(a) or the Board has determined that a Change in Control has occurred, Executive shall be entitled to the benefits provided in paragraphs (c) and, (d), of this Section 5 upon his subsequent termination of employment at any time during the term of this Agreement due to (i) Executive's dismissal, or (ii) Executive's voluntary resignation, unless such termination is because of his death, or Termination for Cause. (c) Upon the Executive's entitlement to benefits pursuant to Section 5(b), the Holding Company shall pay Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, as severance pay or liquidated damages, or both, a sum equal to the greater of: (i) the payments due for the remaining term of the Agreement; or (ii) three (3) times Executive's highest annual compensation in the last 5 years. Such annual compensation shall include Base Salary, commissions, bonuses, contributions or accruals on behalf of Executive to any pension and profit sharing plans, any benefits to be paid or received under any stock-based benefit plan, severance payments, directors or committee fees and fringe benefits paid or to be paid to the Executive during such years. At the election of the executive, which election is to be made prior to a Change in Control, such payment shall be made: (a) in a lump sum, (b) on a semi-monthly basis in approximately equal installments over a period of thirty-six (36) months following the Executive's termination, or (c) on an annual basis in approximately equal installments over a period of thirty-six (36) months following the Executive's termination. Such payments shall not be reduced in the event Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment. (d) Upon the Executive's entitlement to benefits pursuant to Section 5(b), the Company will cause to be continued for the Executive and his previously covered dependents life, medical, dental and disability coverage that the Executive agrees is substantially equivalent to the coverage maintained by the Institution for Executive and his dependents prior to his termination at no cost to the Executive. Such coverage and payments shall cease upon the expiration of thirty-six (36) months following the Date of Termination. 5 6 6. CHANGE OF CONTROL RELATED PROVISIONS. In each calendar year that the Executive is entitled to receive payments or benefits under the provisions of the Employment Agreement, the Holding Company shall determine if an excess parachute payment (as defined in Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any successor provision thereto, (the "Code")) exists. Such determination shall be made after taking any reductions permitted pursuant to Section 280G of the Code and the regulations thereunder. Any amount determined to be an excess parachute payment after taking into account such reductions shall be hereafter referred to as the "Initial Excess Parachute Payment". As soon as practicable after a Change in Control, the Initial Excess Parachute Payment shall be determined. Upon the Date of Termination following a Change in Control, the Holding Company shall pay the Executive, subject to applicable withholding requirements under applicable state or federal law, an amount equal to: (1) twenty (20) percent of the Initial Excess Parachute Payment (or such other amount equal to the tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code); and (2) such additional amount (tax allowance) as may be necessary to compensate the Executive for the payment by the Executive of state and local and federal income and excise taxes on the payment provided under clause (1) and on any payments under this Clause (2). In computing such tax allowance, the payment to be made under Clause (1) shall be multiplied by the "gross up percentage" ("GUP"). The GUP shall be determined as follows: Tax Rate GUP = __________ 1- Tax Rate The "Tax Rate" for purposes of computing the GUP shall be the sum of the highest marginal federal and state and local income and employment-related tax rates, including any applicable excise tax rates, applicable to the Executive in the year in which the payment under Clause (1) is made. (3) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it shall subsequently be determined in a final judicial determination or a final administrative settlement to which the Executive is a party that the excess parachute payment as defined in Section 4999 of the Code, reduced as described above, is more than the Initial Excess Parachute Payment (such different amount being hereafter referred to as the "Determinative Excess Parachute Payment") then the Holding Company's independent accountants shall determine the amount (the "Adjustment Amount") the Holding Company must pay to the Executive in order to put the Executive in the same position as the Executive would have been if the Initial Excess Parachute Payment had been equal to the Determinative Excess Parachute Payment. In determining the Adjustment Amount, independent accountants of the Holding Company shall take into account any and all taxes (including any penalties and interest) paid by or for the Executive or refunded to the Executive or for the Executive's benefit. As soon as practicable 6 7 after the Adjustment Amount has been so determined, the Holding Company shall pay the Adjustment Amount to the Executive. In no event however, shall the Executive make any payment under this paragraph to the Holding Company. 7. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE. The term "Termination for Cause" shall mean termination because of Executive's personal dishonesty, willful misconduct, any breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any law, rule, regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses), final cease and desist order or material breach of any provision of this Agreement that results in a material loss to the Association or the Holding Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been Terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to him a Notice of Termination which shall include a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-fourths of the members of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for that purpose (after reasonable notice to Executive and an opportunity for him, together with counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive was guilty of conduct justifying Termination for Cause and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. The Executive shall not have the right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after Termination for Cause. Any stock options and related limited rights granted to Executive under any stock option plan, or any unvested awards granted to Executive under any stock benefit plan of the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, shall become null and void effective upon Executive's receipt of Notice of Termination for Cause pursuant to Section 8 hereof, and shall not be exercisable by or delivered to Executive at any time subsequent to such Termination for Cause. 8. NOTICE OF TERMINATION. (a) Any purported termination by the Holding Company or by Executive shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a written notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive's employment under the provision so indicated. (b) "Date of Termination" shall mean the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of a Termination for Cause, shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of Termination is given); provided, however, that if a dispute regarding the Executive's termination exists, the "Date of Termination" shall be determined in accordance with Section 8(c) of the Agreement. (c) If, within thirty (30) days after any Notice of Termination is given, the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, except upon the occurrence of a Change in Control and voluntary termination by the Executive in which case the Date of Termination shall be the date specified in the Notice, the Date of Termination 7 8 shall be the date on which the dispute is finally determined, either by mutual written agreement of the parties, by a binding arbitration award, or by a final judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (the time for appeal therefrom having expired and no appeal having been perfected) and provided further that the Date of Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute only if such notice is given in good faith and the party giving such notice pursues the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence. Notwithstanding the pendency of any such dispute, the Holding Company will continue to pay Executive his full compensation in effect when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given (including, but not limited to, Base Salary) and continue him as a participant in all compensation, benefit and insurance plans in which he was participating when the notice of dispute was given, until the dispute is finally resolved in accordance with this Agreement. Amounts paid under this Section are in addition to all other amounts due under this Agreement and shall not be offset against or reduce any other amounts due under this Agreement. 9. POST-TERMINATION OBLIGATIONS. All payments and benefits to Executive under this Agreement shall be subject to Executive's compliance with this Section 9 for three (3) full years after the earlier of the expiration of this Agreement or termination of Executive's employment with the Holding Company. Executive shall, upon reasonable notice, furnish such information and assistance to the Holding Company as may reasonably be required by the Holding Company in connection with any litigation in which it or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is, or may become, a party. 10. NON-COMPETITION. (a) Upon any termination of Executive's employment hereunder pursuant to Section 4 hereof, Executive agrees not to compete with the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries for a period of one (1) year following such termination in any city, town or county in which the Executive's normal business office is located and the Holding Company or any of its Subsidiaries has an office or has filed an application for regulatory approval to establish an office, determined as of the effective date of such termination, except as agreed to pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board. Executive agrees that during such period and within said cities, towns and counties, Executive shall not work for or advise, consult or otherwise serve with, directly or indirectly, any entity whose business materially competes with the depository, lending or other business activities of the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries. The parties hereto, recognizing that irreparable injury will result to the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, its business and property in the event of Executive's breach of this Subsection 10(a) agree that in the event of any such breach by Executive, the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, will be entitled, in addition to any other remedies and damages available, to an injunction to restrain the violation hereof by Executive, Executive's partners, agents, servants, employees and all persons acting for or under the direction of Executive. Executive represents and admits that in the event of the termination of his employment pursuant to Section 7 hereof, Executive's experience and capabilities are such that Executive can obtain employment in a business engaged in other lines and/or of a different nature than the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, and that the enforcement of a remedy by way of injunction will not prevent Executive from earning a livelihood. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the 8 9 Holding Company or its Subsidiaries from pursuing any other remedies available to the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from Executive. (b) Executive recognizes and acknowledges that the knowledge of the business activities and plans for business activities of the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries as it may exist from time to time, is a valuable, special and unique asset of the business of the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries. Executive will not, during or after the term of his employment, disclose any knowledge of the past, present, planned or considered business activities of the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries thereof to any person, firm, corporation, or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever unless expressly authorized by the Board of Directors or required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may disclose any knowledge of banking, financial and/or economic principles, concepts or ideas which are not solely and exclusively derived from the business plans and activities of the Holding Company. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Executive of the provisions of this Section, the Holding Company will be entitled to an injunction restraining Executive from disclosing, in whole or in part, the knowledge of the past, present, planned or considered business activities of the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries or from rendering any services to any person, firm, corporation, other entity to whom such knowledge, in whole or in part, has been disclosed or is threatened to be disclosed. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the Holding Company from pursuing any other remedies available to the Holding Company for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from Executive. 11. SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. (a) All payments provided in this Agreement shall be timely paid in cash or check from the general funds of the Holding Company subject to this Section 11(b). (b) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, to the extent that payments and benefits, as provided by this Agreement, are paid to or received by Executive under the Employment Agreement dated June 28, 1995, and amended and restated on July 24, 1998, between Executive and the Association, such compensation payments and benefits paid by the Association will be subtracted from any amount due simultaneously to Executive under similar provisions of this Agreement. Payments pursuant to this Agreement and the Association Agreement shall be allocated in proportion to the level of activity and the time expended on such activities by the Executive as determined by the Holding Company and the Association on a quarterly basis. 12. EFFECT ON PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND EXISTING BENEFITS PLANS. This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior employment agreement between the Holding Company or any predecessor of the Holding Company and Executive, except that this Agreement shall not affect or operate to reduce any benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind elsewhere provided. No provision of this Agreement 9 10 shall be interpreted to mean that Executive is subject to receiving fewer benefits than those available to him without reference to this Agreement. 13. NO ATTACHMENT. (a) Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment, levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to affect any such action shall be null, void, and of no effect. (b) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Executive and the Holding Company and their respective successors and assigns. 14. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. (a) This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. (b) No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future as to any act other than that specifically waived. 15. SEVERABILITY. If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement, or any part of any provision, is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any part of such provision not held so invalid, and each such other provision and part thereof shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect. 16. HEADINGS FOR REFERENCE ONLY. The headings of sections and paragraphs herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement. 10 11 17. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflict of laws of the State of Delaware. 18. ARBITRATION. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by binding arbitration, conducted before a panel of three arbitrators sitting in a location selected by the Executive within fifty (50) miles from the location of the Association, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court having jurisdiction; provided, however, that Executive shall be entitled to seek specific performance of his right to be paid until the Date of Termination during the pendency of any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement. In the event any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with Executive's termination is resolved in favor of the Executive, whether by judgment, arbitration or settlement, Executive shall be entitled to the payment of all back-pay, including salary, bonuses and any other cash compensation, fringe benefits and any compensation and benefits due Executive under this Agreement. 19. PAYMENT OF LEGAL FEES. All reasonable costs and legal fees paid or incurred by Executive pursuant to any dispute or question of interpretation relating to this Agreement shall be paid or reimbursed by the Holding Company, if Executive is successful on the merits pursuant to a legal judgment, arbitration or settlement. 20. INDEMNIFICATION. The Holding Company shall provide Executive (including his heirs, executors and administrators) with coverage under a standard directors' and officers' liability insurance policy at its expense, or in lieu thereof, shall indemnify Executive (and his heirs, executors and administrators) to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against all expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred by him in connection with or arising out of any action, suit or proceeding in which he may be involved by reason of his having been a director or officer of the Holding Company (whether or not he continues to be a director or officer at the time of incurring such expenses or liabilities), such expenses and liabilities to include, but not be limited to, judgments, court costs and attorneys' fees and the cost of reasonable settlements. 11 12 21. SUCCESSOR TO THE HOLDING COMPANY. The Holding Company shall require any successor or assignee, whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, to all or substantially all the business or assets of the Association or the Holding Company, expressly and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform the Holding Company's obligations under this Agreement, in the same manner and to the same extent that the Holding Company would be required to perform if no such succession or assignment had taken place. 12 13 SIGNATURES IN WITNESS WHEREOF, SGV Bancorp, Inc. has caused this amended and restated Agreement to be executed and its seal to be affixed hereunto by its duly authorized officer and its directors, and Executive has signed this amended and restated Agreement, on the 24th day of July, 1998.

During said period, Executive also agrees to serve, if elected, as an officer and director of the Holding Company or any subsidiary of the Association. 2. TERMS AND DUTIES. (a) The period of Executive's employment under this Agreement shall be deemed to have commenced as of the date first above written and shall continue for a period of thirty-six (36) full calendar months thereafter (the "initial term"). Commencing on the first anniversary date of this Agreement, and continuing on each anniversary date thereafter, the disinterested members of the board of directors of the Association ("Board") may extend the Agreement an additional year such that the remaining term of the Agreement shall be three (3) years unless the Executive elects not to extend the term of the Agreement by giving written notice in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement. The Board will review the Agreement and Executive's performance annually for purposes of determining whether to extend the Agreement and the rationale and results thereof shall be included in the minutes of the Board's meeting. The Board shall give notice to the Executive as soon as possible after such review as to whether the Agreement is to be extended. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, however, in the event of a Change in Control as hereinafter defined in Section 5, the Agreement shall be automatically renewed such that the initial term of 1 2 employment shall commence on the date the Change in Control occurs and the term of employment shall end on the date three (3) years thereafter.

Executive may also serve, or continue to serve, on the boards of directors of, and hold any other offices or positions in, community and civic organizations, which, in the Board's judgment, will not present any conflict of interest with the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, or materially affect the performance of Executive's duties pursuant to this Agreement; provided Executive notify the Board of such activity and the Board does not take Board action to object to such activity. (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Executive's employment with the Association may be terminated by the Association or the Executive during the term of this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 3. COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT. (a) The Association shall pay Executive as compensation a salary of not less than $143,928 per year ("Base Salary"). Base Salary shall also include any amounts of compensation deferred by Executive under any tax qualified or unqualified plan maintained by the Association. Such Base Salary shall be payable semi-monthly. During the period of this Agreement, Executive's Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually; the first such review will be made no later than one year from the date of this Agreement. Such review shall be conducted by the Board or by a Committee of the Board, delegated such responsibility by the Board. The Committee or the Board may increase Executive's Base Salary. Any increase in Base Salary shall become the "Base Salary" for purposes of this Agreement from the date of such increase. In addition to the Base Salary provided in this Section 3(a), the Association shall also provide Executive, at no premium cost to Executive, with all such other benefits as are provided uniformly to permanent full-time employees of the Association. (b) The Executive shall be entitled to participate in any employee benefit plans, arrangements and perquisites substantially equivalent to those in which Executive was participating or otherwise deriving benefit from immediately prior to the beginning of the term of this Agreement, and the Association will not, without Executive's prior written consent, make any changes in such plans, arrangements or perquisites which would materially adversely affect Executive's rights or benefits thereunder; except to the extent such changes are made applicable to all Association 2 3 employees eligible to participate in such plans, arrangements and perquisites on a non-discriminatory basis. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Subsection (b), Executive shall be entitled to participate in or receive benefits under any employee benefit plans, including but not limited to, retirement plans, supplemental retirement plans, pension plans, profit-sharing plans, stock option or restricted stock award plans, health-and-accident plans, medical coverage or any other employee benefit plan or arrangement made available by the Association in the future to its senior executives and key management employees, subject to and on a basis consistent with the terms, conditions and overall administration of such plans and arrangements. Executive shall be entitled to incentive compensation and bonuses as provided in any plan of the Association in which Executive is eligible to participate. Nothing paid to the Executive under any such plan or arrangement will be deemed to be in lieu of other compensation to which the Executive is entitled under this Agreement. (c) In addition to the Base Salary provided for by paragraph (a) of this Section 3 and other compensation provided for by paragraph (b) of this Section 3, the Association shall pay or reimburse Executive for all reasonable travel and other reasonable expenses incurred by Executive performing his obligations under this Agreement and may provide such additional compensation in such form and such amounts as the Board may from time to time determine. 4. PAYMENTS TO EXECUTIVE UPON AN EVENT OF TERMINATION. (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination (as herein defined) during the Executive's term of employment under this Agreement, the provisions of this Section shall apply. As used in this Agreement, an "Event of Termination" shall mean and include any one or more of the following: (i) the termination by the Association or the Holding Company of Executive's full-time employment hereunder for any reason other than a termination governed by Section 5(a) hereof, or Termination for Cause, as defined in Section 7 hereof; (ii) Executive's resignation from the Association's employ upon any (A) failure to elect or reelect or to appoint or reappoint Executive as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, unless consented to by the Executive, (B) a material change in Executive's function, duties, or responsibilities with the Association, which change would cause Executive's position to become one of lesser responsibility, importance, or scope from the position and attributes thereof described in Section 1, above, unless consented to by Executive, (C) a relocation of Executive's principal place of employment by more than 30 driving miles from its location at the effective date of this Agreement, unless consented to by the Executive, (D) a material reduction in the benefits and perquisites to the Executive from those being provided as of the effective date of this Agreement, unless consented to by the Executive, (E) a liquidation or dissolution of the Association or Holding Company, or (F) breach of this Agreement by the Association. Upon the occurrence of any event described in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D), (E) or (F), above, Executive shall have the right to elect to terminate his employment under this Agreement by resignation upon not less than sixty (60) days prior written notice given within six full calendar months after the event giving rise to said right to elect. 3 4 (b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, on the Date of Termination, as defined in Section 8, the Association shall pay Executive, or, in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be a sum equal to the payments due to the Executive for the remaining term of the Agreement, including but not limited to Base Salary, bonuses and any other cash deferred compensation paid or to be paid, to the Executive, and the amount equal to the annual contributions that would have been made on Executive's behalf to any employee benefit plans of the Association or the Holding Company during the remaining term of this Agreement based on contributions or payments made (on an annualized basis) at the Date of Termination; provided, however, that any payments pursuant to this subsection -------- ------- shall not, in the aggregate, exceed three times Executive's average annual compensation for the five most recent taxable years that Executive has been employed by the Association or such lesser number of years in the event that Executive shall have been employed by the Association for less than five years. In the event the Association is not in compliance with its minimum capital requirements or if such payments pursuant to this subsection (b) would cause the Association's capital to be reduced below its minimum regulatory capital requirements, such payments shall be deferred until such time as the Association or successor thereto is in capital compliance. At the election of the Executive, which election is to be made prior to an Event of Termination, such payments shall be made in a lump sum as of the Executive's Date of Termination. In the event that no election is made, payment to Executive will be made on a monthly basis in approximately equal installments during the remaining term of the Agreement. Such payments shall not be reduced in the event the Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment. (c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the Association will cause to be continued for the Executive and his previously covered dependents life, medical, dental and disability coverage that the Executive agrees is substantially equivalent to the coverage maintained by the Association or the Holding Company for Executive and his dependents prior to his termination at no cost to the Executive, except to the extent such coverage may be changed in its application to all Association or Holding Company employees. Such coverage shall cease upon the expiration of the remaining term of this Agreement. 5. CHANGE IN CONTROL. (a) For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change in Control" of the Association or Holding Company shall mean an event of a nature that: (i) would be required to be reported in response to Item 1(a) of the current report on Form 8-K, as in effect on the date hereof, pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); or (ii) results in a Change in Control of the Association or the Holding Company within the meaning of the Home Owners' Loan Act of 1933, as amended, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the Rules and Regulations promulgated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") (or its predecessor agency), as in effect on the date hereof (provided, that in applying the definition of change in control as set forth under the rules and regulations of the OTS, the Board shall substitute its judgment for that of the OTS); or (iii) without limitation such a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred at such time as (A) any "person" (as the term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly 4 5 or indirectly, of voting securities of the Association or the Holding Company representing 20% or more of the Association's or the Holding Company's outstanding voting securities or right to acquire such securities except for any voting securities of the Association purchased by the Holding Company and any voting securities purchased by any employee benefit plan of the Association or the Holding Company, or (B) individuals who constitute the Board on the date hereof (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election was approved by a vote of at least three-quarters of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board, or whose nomination for election by the Holding Company's stockholders was approved by a Nominating Committee solely composed of members who are Incumbent Board members, shall be, for purposes of this clause (B), considered as though he were a member of the Incumbent Board, (C) a plan of reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Association or the Holding Company or similar transaction occurs or is effectuated in which the Association or Holding Company is not the resulting entity; provided, however, that such an event listed above will be deemed to have occurred or to have been effectuated upon the receipt of all required federal regulatory approvals not including the lapse of any statutory waiting periods, or (D) a proxy statement shall be distributed soliciting proxies from stockholders of the Holding Company, by someone other than the current management of the Holding Company, seeking stockholder approval of a plan of reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Holding Company or Association with one or more corporations as a result of which the outstanding shares of the class of securities then subject to such plan or transaction are exchanged for or converted into cash or property or securities not issued by the Association or the Holding Company shall be distributed; or (E) a tender offer is made and accepted for 20% or more of the voting securities of the Association or Holding Company then outstanding. (b) If a Change in Control has occurred pursuant to Section 5(a) or the Board has determined that a Change in Control has occurred, Executive shall be entitled to the benefits provided in paragraphs (c), and (d) of this Section 5 upon his subsequent termination of employment at any time during the term of this Agreement due to: (1) Executive's dismissal or (2) Executive's voluntary resignation unless such termination is because of his death or Termination for Cause. (c) Upon Executive's entitlement to benefits pursuant to Section 5(b), the Association shall pay Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, as severance pay or liquidated damages, or both a sum equal to the greater of: (1) the payments due for the remaining term of the Agreement; or (2) three (3) times Executive's highest annual compensation for the last five (5) years . Such annual compensation shall include Base Salary, commissions bonuses, contributions or accruals on behalf of Executive to any pension and profit sharing plans, any benefits to be paid or received under any stock-based benefit plan, severance payments, directors or committee fees and fringe benefits paid or to be paid to the Executive during such years. At the election of the executive, which election is to be made prior to a Change in Control, such payment shall be made: (a) in a lump sum, (b) on a semi-monthly basis in approximately equal installments over a period of thirty-six (36) months following the Executive's termination, or (c) on an annual basis in approximately equal installments over a period of thirty-six (36) months following the Executive's termination. Such payments shall not be reduced in the event Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment; provided however, that 5 6 any payment under this provision shall not exceed three (3) times the Executive's average annual compensation. In the event the Association is not in compliance with its minimum capital requirements or if such payments would cause the Association's capital to be reduced below its minimum regulatory capital requirements, such payments shall be deferred until such time as the Association or successor thereto is in capital compliance. At the election of the Executive, which election is to be made prior to a Change in Control, such payment shall be made in a lump sum as of the Executive's Date of Termination. In the event that no election is made, payment to the Executive will be made in approximately equal installments on a monthly basis over a period of thirty-six (36) months following the Executive's termination. Such payments shall not be reduced in the event Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment. (d) Upon the Executive's entitlement to benefits pursuant to Section 5(b), the Association will cause to be continued for the Executive and his previously covered dependents life, medical, dental and disability coverage that the Executive agrees is substantially equivalent to the coverage maintained by the Association for Executive and his dependents prior to his termination at no cost to the Executive. Such coverage and payments shall cease upon the expiration of thirty-six (36) months following the Date of Termination. 6. CHANGE OF CONTROL RELATED PROVISIONS Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5, in no event shall the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive under said paragraphs (the "Termination Benefits") constitute an "excess parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Code or any successor thereto, and in order to avoid such a result, Termination Benefits will be reduced, if necessary, to an amount (the "Non-Triggering Amount"), the value of which is one dollar ($1.00) less than an amount equal to three (3) times Executive's "base amount", as determined in accordance with said Section 280G. The allocation of the reduction required hereby among the Termination Benefits provided by Section 5 shall be determined by Executive. 7. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE. The term "Termination for Cause" shall mean termination because of Executive's personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, any breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease-and-desist order or material breach of any provision of this Agreement. In determining incompetence, the acts or omissions shall be measured against the generally prevailing standards of professional competence for executive officers having comparable positions in the savings institutions industry. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been Terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to him a Notice of Termination which shall include a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the members of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for that purpose (after reasonable notice to Executive and an opportunity for him, together with counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive was guilty of conduct justifying Termination for Cause and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. The Executive shall not have the right to receive 6 7 compensation or other benefits for any period after Termination for Cause. Any stock options and related limited rights granted to Executive under any stock option plan or any unvested awards granted to Executive under any stock benefit plan of the Association, the Holding Company or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof, shall become null and void effective upon Executive's receipt of Notice of Termination for Cause pursuant to Section 8 hereof, and shall not be exercisable by or delivered to Executive at any time subsequent to such Termination for Cause. 8. NOTICE OF TERMINATION. (a) Any purported termination by the Association or by Executive shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a written notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive's employment under the provision so indicated. (b) "Date of Termination" shall mean the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of a Termination for Cause, shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of Termination is given.); provided, however, that if a dispute regarding the Executive's termination exists, the "Date of Termination" shall be determined in accordance with Section 8(c) of the Agreement. (c) If, within thirty (30) days after any Notice of Termination is given, the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, except upon the occurrence of a Change in Control and voluntary termination by the Executive in which case the Date of Termination shall be the date specified in the Notice, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which the dispute is finally determined, either by mutual written agreement of the parties, by a binding arbitration award, or by a final judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (the time for appeal therefrom having expired and no appeal having been perfected) and provided further that the Date of Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute only if such notice is given in good faith and the party giving such notice pursues the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence. Amounts paid under this Section are in addition to all other amounts due under this Agreement and shall not be offset against or reduce any other amounts due under this Agreement. 9. POST-TERMINATION OBLIGATIONS. All payments and benefits to Executive under this Agreement shall be subject to Executive's compliance with this Section 9 for three (3) full years after the earlier of the expiration of this Agreement or termination of Executive's employment with the Association . Executive shall, upon reasonable notice, furnish such information and assistance to the Association as may reasonably be required by the Association in connection with any litigation in which it or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is, or may become, a party. 7 8 10. NON-COMPETITION. (a) Upon any termination of Executive's employment hereunder pursuant to Section 4 hereof, Executive agrees not to compete with the Association for a period of one (1) year following such termination in any city, town or county in which the Executive's normal business office is located and the Association has an office or has filed an application for regulatory approval to establish an office, determined as of the effective date of such termination, except as agreed to pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board. Executive agrees that during such period and within said cities, towns and counties, Executive shall not work for or advise, consult or otherwise serve with, directly or indirectly, any entity whose business materially competes with the depository, lending or other business activities of the Association. The parties hereto, recognizing that irreparable injury will result to the Association, its business and property in the event of Executive's breach of this Subsection 10(a) agree that in the event of any such breach by Executive, the Association, will be entitled, in addition to any other remedies and damages available, to an injunction to restrain the violation hereof by Executive, Executive's partners, agents, servants, employees and all persons acting for or under the direction of Executive. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the Association from pursuing any other remedies available to the Association for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from Executive. (b) Executive recognizes and acknowledges that the knowledge of the business activities and plans for business activities of the Association and affiliates thereof, as it may exist from time to time, is a valuable, special and unique asset of the business of the Association. Executive will not, during or after the term of his employment, disclose any knowledge of the past, present, planned or considered business activities of the Association or affiliates thereof to any person, firm, corporation, or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may disclose any knowledge of banking, financial and/or economic principles, concepts or ideas which are not solely and exclusively derived from the business plans and activities of the Association. Further, Executive may disclose information regarding the business activities of the Association to the OTS and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") pursuant to a formal regulatory request. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Executive of the provisions of this Section, the Association will be entitled to an injunction restraining Executive from disclosing, in whole or in part, the knowledge of the past, present, planned or considered business activities of the Association or affiliates thereof, or from rendering any services to any person, firm, corporation, other entity to whom such knowledge, in whole or in part, has been disclosed or is threatened to be disclosed. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the Association from pursuing any other remedies available to the Association for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from Executive. 11. SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. (a) All payments provided in this Agreement shall be timely paid in cash or check from the general funds of the Association. The Holding Company, however, unconditionally guarantees payment and provision of all amounts and benefits due hereunder to Executive and, if such amounts and benefits due from the Association are not timely paid or provided by the Association, such amounts and benefits shall be paid or provided by the Holding Company. 8 9 (b) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, to the extent that payments and benefits, as provided by this Agreement, are paid to or received by Executive under the Employment Agreement dated June 28, 1995, and amended and restated as of July 24, 1998, between Executive and the Holding Company, such compensation payments and benefits paid by the Holding Company will be subtracted from any amounts due simultaneously to Executive under similar provisions of this Agreement. Payments pursuant to this Agreement and the Holding Company Agreement shall be allocated in proportion to the level of activity and time expended on such activities by Executive as determined by the Holding Company and the Association on a quarterly basis. 12. EFFECT ON PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND EXISTING BENEFITS PLANS. This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior employment agreement between the Association or any predecessor of the Association and Executive, except that this Agreement shall not affect or operate to reduce any benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind elsewhere provided. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean that Executive is subject to receiving fewer benefits than those available to him without reference to this Agreement. 13. NO ATTACHMENT. (a) Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment, levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to affect any such action shall be null, void, and of no effect. (b) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Executive and the Association and their respective successors and assigns. 14. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. (a) This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. (b) No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future as to any act other than that specifically waived. 9 10 15. REQUIRED PROVISIONS. (a) The Association may terminate Executive's employment at any time, but any termination by the Association, other than Termination for Cause, shall not prejudice Executive's right to compensation or other benefits under this Agreement. Executive shall not have the right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after Termination for Cause as defined in Section 7 hereinabove. (b) If Executive is suspended from office and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Association's affairs by a notice served under Section 8(e)(3) or 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. ss.1818(e)(3) or (g)(1); the Association 's obligations under this contract shall be suspended as of the date of service, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, the Association may in its discretion (i) pay Executive all or part of the compensation withheld while their contract obligations were suspended and (ii) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of the obligations which were suspended. (c) If Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Association's affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4) or 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. ss.1818(e)(4) or (g)(1), all obligations of the Association under this contract shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but vested rights of the contracting parties shall not be affected. (d) If the Association is in default as defined in Section 3(x)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. ss.1813(x)(1) all obligations of the Association under this contract shall terminate as of the date of default, but this paragraph shall not affect any vested rights of the contracting parties. (e) All obligations of the Association under this contract shall be terminated, except to the extent determined that continuation of the contract is necessary for the continued operation of the institution, (i) by the Director of the OTS (or his designee), the FDIC or the Resolution Trust Corporation, at the time the FDIC enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Association under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. ss.1823(c); or (ii) by the Director of the OTS (or his designee) at the time the Director (or his designee) approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to the operations of the Association or when the Association is determined by the Director to be in an unsafe or unsound condition. Any rights of the parties that have already vested, however, shall not be affected by such action. (f) Any payments made to Executive pursuant to this Agreement, or otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon compliance with 12 U.S.C. ss.1828(k) and 12 C.F.R. ss.545.121 and any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. 10 11 16. SEVERABILITY. If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement, or any part of any provision, is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any part of such provision not held so invalid, and each such other provision and part thereof shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect. 17. HEADINGS FOR REFERENCE ONLY. The headings of sections and paragraphs herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement. 18. GOVERNING LAW. The validity, interpretation, performance and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, but only to the extent not superseded by federal law. 19. ARBITRATION. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by binding arbitration, conducted before a panel of three arbitrators sitting in a location selected by Executive within fifty (50) miles from the location of the Association, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court having jurisdiction; provided, however, that Executive shall be entitled to seek specific performance of his right to be paid until the Date of Termination during the pendency of any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement. In the event any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with Executive's termination is resolved in favor of Executive, whether by judgment, arbitration or settlement, Executive shall be entitled to the payment of all back-pay, including salary, bonuses and any other cash compensation, fringe benefits and any compensation and benefits due Executive under this Agreement. 20. PAYMENT OF COSTS AND LEGAL FEES. All reasonable costs and legal fees paid or incurred by Executive pursuant to any dispute or question of interpretation relating to this Agreement shall be paid or reimbursed by the Association if Executive is successful on the merits pursuant to a legal judgment, arbitration or settlement. 11 12 21. INDEMNIFICATION. (a) The Association shall provide Executive (including his heirs, executors and administrators) with coverage under a standard directors' and officers' liability insurance policy at its expense, or in lieu thereof, shall indemnify Executive (and his heirs, executors and administrators) to the fullest extent permitted under federal law against all expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred by him in connection with or arising out of any action, suit or proceeding in which he may be involved by reason of his having been a director or officer of the Association (whether or not he continues to be a director or officer at the time of incurring such expenses or liabilities), such expenses and liabilities to include, but not be limited to, judgments, court costs and attorneys' fees and the cost of reasonable settlements. (b) Any payments made to Executive pursuant to this Section are subject to and conditioned upon compliance with 12 C.F.R.ss. 545.121 and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder. 22.

(the "Holding Company"), a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, with its principal administrative office at 225 North Barranca Street, West Covina, California and Ronald A. Ott (the "Executive"). Any reference to "Association" herein shall mean First Federal Savings and Loan Association of San Gabriel Valley or any successor thereto. WHEREAS, the Holding Company wishes to assure itself of the services of Executive for the period provided in this Agreement; and WHEREAS, the Executive is willing to serve in the employ of the Holding Company on a full-time basis for said period. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, and upon the other terms and conditions hereinafter provided, the parties hereby agree as follows: 1. POSITION AND RESPONSIBILITIES. During the period of Executive's employment hereunder, Executive agrees to serve as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Holding Company. The Executive shall render administrative and management services to the Holding Company such as are customarily performed by persons in a similar executive capacity. During said period, Executive also agrees to serve, if elected, as an officer and director of any subsidiary of the Holding Company. 2. TERMS AND DUTIES. (a) The period of Executive's employment under this Agreement shall be deemed to have commenced as of the date first above written and shall continue for a period of thirty-six (36) full calendar months thereafter (the "initial term"). Commencing on the first anniversary date of this Agreement, and continuing on each anniversary date thereafter, the board of directors of the Holding Company ("Board") may extend the Agreement an additional year such that the remaining term of the Agreement shall be three (3) years unless the Executive elects not to extend the term of the Agreement by giving written notice in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement. The Board will review the Agreement and the Executive's performance at least annually for purposes of determining whether to extend the Agreement and the results of such review shall be included in the minutes of the Board's meeting. The Board shall give notice to the Executive as soon as possible after such review as to whether the Agreement is to be extended. Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement, however, in the event of a Change in Control as hereinafter defined in Section 5, the Agreement shall be automatically renewed, such that the initial term of the Agreement shall 1 2 commence on the date the Change in Control occurs and the term of employment shall end on the date three (3) years thereafter. (b) During the period of Executive's employment hereunder, except for periods of absence occasioned by illness, reasonable vacation periods, and reasonable leaves of absence, Executive shall devote substantially all his business time, attention, skill, and efforts to the faithful performance of his duties hereunder including activities and services related to the organization, operation and management of the Holding Company and its, direct or indirect, subsidiaries ("Subsidiaries") and participation in community and civic organizations; provided, however, that, with the approval of the Board, as evidenced by a resolution of such Board, from time to time, Executive may serve, or continue to serve, on the boards of directors of, and hold any other offices or positions in, other companies, which, in such Board's judgment, will not present any conflict of interest with the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, or materially affect the performance of Executive's duties pursuant to this Agreement. Executive may also serve, or continue to serve, on the boards of directors of, and hold any other offices or positions in, community and civic organizations, which, in the Board's judgment, will not present any conflict of interest with the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, or materially affect the performance of Executive's duties pursuant to this Agreement; provided Executive notify the Board of such activity and the Board does not take Board action to object to such activity. (c) Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, Executive's employment with the Holding Company may be terminated by the Holding Company or the Executive during the term of this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 3. COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT. (a) The Holding Company or its Subsidiaries shall pay Executive as compensation a salary of not less than $143,928 per year ("Base Salary"). Base Salary shall also include any amounts of compensation deferred by Executive under any tax qualified or unqualified plan maintained by the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries. Such Base Salary shall be payable semi-monthly. During the period of this Agreement, Executive's Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually; the first such review will be made no later than one year from the date of this Agreement. Such review shall be conducted by the Board or by a Committee of the Board delegated such responsibility by the Board. The Committee or the Board may increase Executive's Base Salary. Any increase in Base Salary shall become the "Base Salary" for purposes of this Agreement from the date of such increase. In addition to the Base Salary provided in this Section 3(a), the Holding Company shall also provide Executive, at no premium cost to Executive, with all such other benefits as are provided uniformly to permanent full-time employees of the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries. (b) The Executive shall be entitled to participate in any employee benefit plans, arrangements and perquisites substantially equivalent to those in which Executive was participating or otherwise deriving benefit from immediately prior to the beginning of the term of this Agreement, and the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries will not, without Executive's prior written consent, 2 3 make any changes in such plans, arrangements or perquisites which would adversely affect Executive's rights or benefits thereunder, except to the extent such changes are made applicable to all Holding Company and Association employees eligible to participate in such plans, arrangements and perquisites on a non-discriminatory basis. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Subsection (b), Executive shall be entitled to participate in or receive benefits under any employee benefit plans, including, but not limited to, retirement plans, supplemental retirement plans, pension plans, profit-sharing plans, stock option or restricted stock award plans, health-and-accident plans, medical coverage or any other employee benefit plan or arrangement made available by the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries in the future to its senior executives and key management employees, subject to and on a basis consistent with the terms, conditions and overall administration of such plans and arrangements. Executive shall be entitled to incentive compensation and bonuses as provided in any plan of the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries in which Executive is eligible to participate. Nothing paid to the Executive under any such plan or arrangement will be deemed to be in lieu of other compensation to which the Executive is entitled under this Agreement. (c) In addition to the Base Salary provided for by paragraph (a) of this Section 3 and other compensation provided for by paragraph (b) of this Section 3, the Holding Company shall pay or reimburse Executive for all reasonable travel and other reasonable expenses incurred by Executive performing his obligations under this Agreement and may provide such additional compensation in such form and such amounts as the Board may from time to time determine. 4. PAYMENTS TO EXECUTIVE UPON AN EVENT OF TERMINATION. (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination (as herein defined) during the Executive's term of employment under this Agreement, the provisions of this Section shall apply. As used in this Agreement, an "Event of Termination" shall mean and include any one or more of the following: (i) the termination by the Holding Company of Executive's full-time employment hereunder for any reason other than termination governed by Section 5(a) hereof, or Termination for Cause, as defined in Section 7 hereof; (ii) Executive's resignation from the Holding Company's employ, upon, any (A) failure to elect or reelect or to appoint or reappoint Executive as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, unless consented to by the Executive, (B) a material change in Executive's function, duties, or responsibilities with the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, which change would cause Executive's position to become one of lesser responsibility, importance, or scope from the position and attributes thereof described in Section 1, above, unless consented to by the Executive, (C) a relocation of Executive's principal place of employment by more than 30 miles from its location at the effective date of this Agreement, unless consented to by the Executive, (D) a reduction in the benefits and perquisites to the Executive from those being provided as of the effective date of this Agreement, unless consented to by the Executive, (E) a liquidation or dissolution of the Holding Company or the Association, or (F) breach of this Agreement by the Holding Company. Upon the occurrence of any event described in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) (E) or (F), above, Executive shall have the right to elect to terminate his employment under this Agreement by resignation upon not less than sixty (60) days prior written notice given within six full calendar months after the event giving rise to said right to elect. 3 4 (b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, on the Date of Termination, as defined in Section 8, the Holding Company shall pay Executive, or, in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, a sum equal to the payments due the Executive for the remaining term of the agreement, including Base Salary, bonuses and any other cash or deferred compensation paid or to be paid to the executive, and the amount equal to the annual contributions that would have been made on Executive's behalf to any employee benefit plans of the Association or the Holding Company during the remaining term of this Agreement based on contributions or payments made (on an annualized basis) at the Date of Termination. At the election of the Executive, which election is to be made prior to an Event of Termination, such payments shall be made in a lump sum. In the event that no election is made, payment to the Executive will be made on a monthly basis in approximately equal installments during the remaining term of the Agreement. Such payments shall not be reduced in the event the Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment. (c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the Holding Company will cause to be continued for the Executive and his previously covered dependents life, medical, dental and disability coverage that the Executive agrees is substantially equivalent to the coverage maintained by the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries for Executive and his dependents prior to his termination at no cost to the Executive. Such coverage shall cease upon the expiration of the remaining term of this Agreement. 5. CHANGE IN CONTROL. (a) For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change in Control" of the Holding Company or the Association shall mean an event of a nature that; (i) would be required to be reported in response to Item 1(a) of the current report on Form 8-K, as in effect on the date hereof, pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); or (ii) results in a Change in Control of the Association or the Holding Company within the meaning of the Home Owners' Loan Act of 1933, as amended, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, and the Rules and Regulations promulgated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") (or its predecessor agency), as in effect on the date hereof (provided, that in applying the definition of change in control as set forth under the rules and regulations of the OTS, the Board shall substitute its judgment for that of the OTS); or (iii) without limitation such a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred at such time as (A) any "person" (as the term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of voting securities of the Association or the Holding Company representing 20% or more of the Association's or the Holding Company's outstanding voting securities or right to acquire such securities except for any voting securities of the Association purchased by the Holding Company and any voting securities purchased by any employee benefit plan of the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries'; or (B) individuals who constitute the Board on the date hereof (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election was approved by a vote of at least three-quarters of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board, or whose nomination for election by the Holding Company's stockholders was approved by a Nominating Committee solely 4 5 composed of members who are Incumbent Board members, shall be, for purposes of this clause (B), considered as though he were a member of the Incumbent Board; or (C) a plan of reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Association or the Holding Company or similar transaction occurs or is effectuated in which the Association or Holding Company is not the resulting entity; provided, however, that such an event listed above will be deemed to have occurred or to have been effectuated upon the receipt of all required federal regulatory approvals not including the lapse of any statutory waiting periods; or (D) a proxy statement shall be distributed soliciting proxies from stockholders of the Holding Company, by someone other than the current management of the Holding Company, seeking stockholder approval of a plan of reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Holding Company or Association with one or more corporations as a result of which the outstanding shares of the class of securities then subject to such plan or transaction are exchanged for or converted into cash or property or securities not issued by the Association or the Holding Company shall be distributed; or (E) a tender offer is made and accepted for 20% or more of the voting securities of the Association or Holding Company then outstanding. (b) If a Change in Control has occurred pursuant to Section 5(a) or the Board has determined that a Change in Control has occurred, Executive shall be entitled to the benefits provided in paragraphs (c) and, (d), of this Section 5 upon his subsequent termination of employment at any time during the term of this Agreement due to (i) Executive's dismissal, or (ii) Executive's voluntary resignation, unless such termination is because of his death, or Termination for Cause. (c) Upon the Executive's entitlement to benefits pursuant to Section 5(b), the Holding Company shall pay Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, as severance pay or liquidated damages, or both, a sum equal to the greater of: (i) the payments due for the remaining term of the Agreement; or (ii) three (3) times Executive's highest annual compensation for the last 5 years. Such annual compensation shall include Base Salary, commissions, bonuses, contributions or accruals on behalf of Executive to any pension and profit sharing plans, any benefits to be paid or received under any stock-based benefit plan, severance payments, directors or committee fees and fringe benefits paid or to be paid to the Executive during such years. At the election of the executive, which election is to be made prior to a Change in Control, such payment shall be made: (a) in a lump sum, (b) on a semi-monthly basis in approximately equal installments over a period of thirty-six (36) months following the Executive's termination, or (c) on an annual basis in approximately equal installments over a period of thirty-six (36) months following the Executive's termination. Such payments shall not be reduced in the event Executive obtains other employment following termination of employment. (d) Upon the Executive's entitlement to benefits pursuant to Section 5(b), the Company will cause to be continued for the Executive and his previously covered dependents life, medical, dental and disability coverage that the Executive agrees is substantially equivalent to the coverage maintained by the Institution for Executive and his dependents prior to his termination at no cost to the Executive. Such coverage and payments shall cease upon the expiration of thirty-six (36) months following the Date of Termination. 5 6 6. CHANGE OF CONTROL RELATED PROVISIONS. In each calendar year that the Executive is entitled to receive payments or benefits under the provisions of the Employment Agreement, the Holding Company shall determine if an excess parachute payment (as defined in Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any successor provision thereto, (the "Code")) exists. Such determination shall be made after taking any reductions permitted pursuant to Section 280G of the Code and the regulations thereunder. Any amount determined to be an excess parachute payment after taking into account such reductions shall be hereafter referred to as the "Initial Excess Parachute Payment". As soon as practicable after a Change in Control, the Initial Excess Parachute Payment shall be determined. Upon the Date of Termination following a Change in Control, the Holding Company shall pay the Executive, subject to applicable withholding requirements under applicable state or federal law, an amount equal to: (1) twenty (20) percent of the Initial Excess Parachute Payment (or such other amount equal to the tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code); and (2) such additional amount (tax allowance) as may be necessary to compensate the Executive for the payment by the Executive of state and local and federal income and excise taxes on the payment provided under clause (1) and on any payments under this Clause (2). In computing such tax allowance, the payment to be made under Clause (1) shall be multiplied by the "gross up percentage" ("GUP"). The GUP shall be determined as follows: Tax Rate GUP = __________ 1- Tax Rate The "Tax Rate" for purposes of computing the GUP shall be the sum of the highest marginal federal and state and local income and employment-related tax rates, including any applicable excise tax rates, applicable to the Executive in the year in which the payment under Clause (1) is made. (3) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it shall subsequently be determined in a final judicial determination or a final administrative settlement to which the Executive is a party that the excess parachute payment as defined in Section 4999 of the Code, reduced as described above, is more than the Initial Excess Parachute Payment (such different amount being hereafter referred to as the "Determinative Excess Parachute Payment") then the Holding Company's independent accountants shall determine the amount (the "Adjustment Amount") the Holding Company must pay to the Executive in order to put the Executive in the same position as the Executive would have been if the Initial Excess Parachute Payment had been equal to the Determinative Excess Parachute Payment. In determining the Adjustment Amount, independent accountants of the Holding Company shall take into account any and all taxes (including any penalties and interest) paid by or for the Executive or refunded to the Executive or for the Executive's benefit. As soon as practicable 6 7 after the Adjustment Amount has been so determined, the Holding Company shall pay the Adjustment Amount to the Executive. In no event however, shall the Executive make any payment under this paragraph to the Holding Company. 7. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE. The term "Termination for Cause" shall mean termination because of Executive's personal dishonesty, willful misconduct, any breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any law, rule, regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses), final cease and desist order or material breach of any provision of this Agreement that results in a material loss to the Association or the Holding Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been Terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to him a Notice of Termination which shall include a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-fourths of the members of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for that purpose (after reasonable notice to Executive and an opportunity for him, together with counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive was guilty of conduct justifying Termination for Cause and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. The Executive shall not have the right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after Termination for Cause. Any stock options and related limited rights granted to Executive under any stock option plan, or any unvested awards granted to Executive under any stock benefit plan of the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, shall become null and void effective upon Executive's receipt of Notice of Termination for Cause pursuant to Section 8 hereof, and shall not be exercisable by or delivered to Executive at any time subsequent to such Termination for Cause. 8. NOTICE OF TERMINATION. (a) Any purported termination by the Holding Company or by Executive shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a written notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive's employment under the provision so indicated. (b) "Date of Termination" shall mean the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of a Termination for Cause, shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of Termination is given); provided, however, that if a dispute regarding the Executive's termination exists, the "Date of Termination" shall be determined in accordance with Section 8(c) of the Agreement. (c) If, within thirty (30) days after any Notice of Termination is given, the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, except upon the occurrence of a Change in Control and voluntary termination by the Executive in which case the Date of Termination shall be the date specified in the Notice, the Date of Termination 7 8 shall be the date on which the dispute is finally determined, either by mutual written agreement of the parties, by a binding arbitration award, or by a final judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (the time for appeal therefrom having expired and no appeal having been perfected) and provided further that the Date of Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute only if such notice is given in good faith and the party giving such notice pursues the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence. Notwithstanding the pendency of any such dispute, the Holding Company will continue to pay Executive his full compensation in effect when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given (including, but not limited to, Base Salary) and continue him as a participant in all compensation, benefit and insurance plans in which he was participating when the notice of dispute was given, until the dispute is finally resolved in accordance with this Agreement. Amounts paid under this Section are in addition to all other amounts due under this Agreement and shall not be offset against or reduce any other amounts due under this Agreement. 9. POST-TERMINATION OBLIGATIONS. All payments and benefits to Executive under this Agreement shall be subject to Executive's compliance with this Section 9 for three (3) full years after the earlier of the expiration of this Agreement or termination of Executive's employment with the Holding Company. Executive shall, upon reasonable notice, furnish such information and assistance to the Holding Company as may reasonably be required by the Holding Company in connection with any litigation in which it or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is, or may become, a party. 10. NON-COMPETITION. (a) Upon any termination of Executive's employment hereunder pursuant to Section 4 hereof, Executive agrees not to compete with the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries for a period of one (1) year following such termination in any city, town or county in which the Executive's normal business office is located and the Holding Company or any of its Subsidiaries has an office or has filed an application for regulatory approval to establish an office, determined as of the effective date of such termination, except as agreed to pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board. Executive agrees that during such period and within said cities, towns and counties, Executive shall not work for or advise, consult or otherwise serve with, directly or indirectly, any entity whose business materially competes with the depository, lending or other business activities of the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries. The parties hereto, recognizing that irreparable injury will result to the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, its business and property in the event of Executive's breach of this Subsection 10(a) agree that in the event of any such breach by Executive, the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, will be entitled, in addition to any other remedies and damages available, to an injunction to restrain the violation hereof by Executive, Executive's partners, agents, servants, employees and all persons acting for or under the direction of Executive. Executive represents and admits that in the event of the termination of his employment pursuant to Section 7 hereof, Executive's experience and capabilities are such that Executive can obtain employment in a business engaged in other lines and/or of a different nature than the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, and that the enforcement of a remedy by way of injunction will not prevent Executive from earning a livelihood. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the 8 9 Holding Company or its Subsidiaries from pursuing any other remedies available to the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from Executive. (b) Executive recognizes and acknowledges that the knowledge of the business activities and plans for business activities of the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries as it may exist from time to time, is a valuable, special and unique asset of the business of the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries. Executive will not, during or after the term of his employment, disclose any knowledge of the past, present, planned or considered business activities of the Holding Company and its Subsidiaries thereof to any person, firm, corporation, or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever unless expressly authorized by the Board of Directors or required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may disclose any knowledge of banking, financial and/or economic principles, concepts or ideas which are not solely and exclusively derived from the business plans and activities of the Holding Company. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Executive of the provisions of this Section, the Holding Company will be entitled to an injunction restraining Executive from disclosing, in whole or in part, the knowledge of the past, present, planned or considered business activities of the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries or from rendering any services to any person, firm, corporation, other entity to whom such knowledge, in whole or in part, has been disclosed or is threatened to be disclosed. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the Holding Company from pursuing any other remedies available to the Holding Company for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from Executive. 11. SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. (a) All payments provided in this Agreement shall be timely paid in cash or check from the general funds of the Holding Company subject to this Section 11(b). (b) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, to the extent that payments and benefits, as provided by this Agreement, are paid to or received by Executive under the Employment Agreement dated June 28, 1995, and amended and restated on July 24, 1998, between Executive and the Association, such compensation payments and benefits paid by the Association will be subtracted from any amount due simultaneously to Executive under similar provisions of this Agreement. Payments pursuant to this Agreement and the Association Agreement shall be allocated in proportion to the level of activity and the time expended on such activities by the Executive as determined by the Holding Company and the Association on a quarterly basis. 12. EFFECT ON PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND EXISTING BENEFITS PLANS. This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior employment agreement between the Holding Company or any predecessor of the Holding Company and Executive, except that this Agreement shall not affect or operate to reduce any benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind elsewhere provided. No provision of this Agreement 9 10 shall be interpreted to mean that Executive is subject to receiving fewer benefits than those available to him without reference to this Agreement. 13. NO ATTACHMENT. (a) Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment, levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to affect any such action shall be null, void, and of no effect. (b) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Executive and the Holding Company and their respective successors and assigns. 14. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. (a) This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. (b) No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future as to any act other than that specifically waived. 15. SEVERABILITY. If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement, or any part of any provision, is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any part of such provision not held so invalid, and each such other provision and part thereof shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect. 16. HEADINGS FOR REFERENCE ONLY. The headings of sections and paragraphs herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement. 10 11 17. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflict of laws of the State of Delaware. 18. ARBITRATION. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by binding arbitration, conducted before a panel of three arbitrators sitting in a location selected by the Executive within fifty (50) miles from the location of the Association, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court having jurisdiction; provided, however, that Executive shall be entitled to seek specific performance of his right to be paid until the Date of Termination during the pendency of any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement. In the event any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with Executive's termination is resolved in favor of the Executive, whether by judgment, arbitration or settlement, Executive shall be entitled to the payment of all back-pay, including salary, bonuses and any other cash compensation, fringe benefits and any compensation and benefits due Executive under this Agreement. 19. PAYMENT OF LEGAL FEES. All reasonable costs and legal fees paid or incurred by Executive pursuant to any dispute or question of interpretation relating to this Agreement shall be paid or reimbursed by the Holding Company, if Executive is successful on the merits pursuant to a legal judgment, arbitration or settlement. 20. INDEMNIFICATION. The Holding Company shall provide Executive (including his heirs, executors and administrators) with coverage under a standard directors' and officers' liability insurance policy at its expense, or in lieu thereof, shall indemnify Executive (and his heirs, executors and administrators) to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against all expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred by him in connection with or arising out of any action, suit or proceeding in which he may be involved by reason of his having been a director or officer of the Holding Company (whether or not he continues to be a director or officer at the time of incurring such expenses or liabilities), such expenses and liabilities to include, but not be limited to, judgments, court costs and attorneys' fees and the cost of reasonable settlements. 11 12 21. SUCCESSOR TO THE HOLDING COMPANY. The Holding Company shall require any successor or assignee, whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, to all or substantially all the business or assets of the Association or the Holding Company, expressly and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform the Holding Company's obligations under this Agreement, in the same manner and to the same extent that the Holding Company would be required to perform if no such succession or assignment had taken place. 12 13 SIGNATURES IN WITNESS WHEREOF, SGV Bancorp, Inc. has caused this amended and restated Agreement to be executed and its seal to be affixed hereunto by its duly authorized officer and its directors, and Executive has signed this amended and restated Agreement, on the 24th day of July, 1998.

TERMINATION BENEFITS. -------------------- (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by termination of the Executive's employment due to: (1) Executive's dismissal or (2) Executive's voluntary termination pursuant to Section 2(a), unless such termination is due to Termination for Cause, the Association and the Holding Company shall pay Executive, or in the event of her subsequent death, her beneficiary or beneficiaries, or her estate, as the case may be, an amount equal to two (2) times Executive's highest annual compensation for the last 5 years; provided that Executive may not receive an amount in excess of the Executive's average annual compensation for the five most recent taxable years. Annual compensation shall include base salary, commissions, bonuses, contributions or accruals on behalf of Executive to any pension and profit sharing plan, any benefits to be paid or received under any stock-based benefit plan, severance payments, directors or committee fees and fringe benefits paid or to be paid to the Executive during such years. At the election of Executive, which election is to be made prior to a Change in Control, such payment shall be made in a lump sum. In the event that no election is made, payment to Executive will be made on a monthly basis in approximately equal installments during the remaining term of this Agreement. 3 4 (b) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Association or the Holding Company followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by Executive's voluntary or involuntary termination of employment, other than for Termination for Cause, the Association shall cause to be continued for the Executive and her previously covered dependents life, medical, dental and disability coverage that the Executive agrees is substantially equivalent to the coverage maintained by the Association or Holding Company for Executive and her dependents prior to her termination except to the extent coverage may be changed in its application to all Association and Holding Company employees on a nondiscriminatory basis, at no cost to the Executive. Such coverage and payments shall cease upon the expiration of twenty-four (24) full calendar months from the Date of Termination. (c) Notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3, in no event shall the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive under said paragraphs (the "Termination Benefits") constitute an "excess parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Code or any successor thereto, and in order to avoid such a result Termination Benefits will be reduced, if necessary, to an amount (the "Non-Triggering Amount"), the value of which is one dollar ($1.00) less than an amount equal to three (3) times Executive's "base amount," as determined in accordance with said Section 280G. The allocation of the reduction required hereby among the Termination Benefits provided by the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3 shall be determined by Executive. 4. NOTICE OF TERMINATION. --------------------- (a) Any purported termination by the Association or by Executive in connection with a Change in Control shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a written notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive's employment under the provision so indicated. (b) "Date of Termination" shall mean the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the instance of Termination for Cause, shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of Termination is given); provided, however, that if a dispute regarding the Executive's termination exists, the "Date of Termination" shall be determined in accordance with Section 8(c) of the Agreement. (c) If, within thirty (30) days after any Notice of Termination is given, the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which the dispute is finally determined, either by mutual written agreement of the parties, by a binding arbitration award, or by a final judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (the time for appeal therefrom having expired and no appeal having been perfected) and provided further that the Date of Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute only if such notice is given in good faith and the party giving such notice pursues the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence. 4 5 Notwithstanding the pendency of any such dispute in connection with a Change in Control, the Association will continue to pay Executive her full compensation in effect when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given (including, but not limited to her current annual salary) and continue her as a participant in all compensation, benefit and insurance plans in which she was participating when the notice of dispute was given, until the earlier of: (1) the resolution of the dispute in accordance with this Agreement or (2) the expiration of the remaining term of this Agreement as determined as of the Date of Termination. Amounts paid under this Section 4(c) are in addition to all other amounts due under this Agreement and shall not be offset against or reduce any other amounts due under this Agreement. 5. SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. ------------------ It is intended by the parties hereto that all payments provided in this Agreement shall be paid in cash or check from the general funds of the Association. Further, the Holding Company guarantees such payment and provision of all amounts and benefits due hereunder to Executive and, if such amounts and benefits due from the Association are not timely paid or provided by the Association, such amounts and benefits shall be paid or provided by the Holding Company. 6. EFFECT ON PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND EXISTING BENEFIT PLANS. ----------------------------------------------------- This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior agreement between the Association and Executive, except that this Agreement shall not affect or operate to reduce any benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind elsewhere provided. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean that Executive is subject to receiving fewer benefits than those available to her without reference to this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon Executive the right to continue in the employ of Association or shall impose on the Association any obligation to employ or retain Executive in its employ for any period. 7. NO ATTACHMENT. ------------- (a) Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment, levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to affect any such action shall be null, void, and of no effect. (b) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Executive, the Association and their respective successors and assigns. 5 6 8. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. ----------------------- (a) This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. (b) No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived. 9. REQUIRED REGULATORY PROVISIONS. ------------------------------ (a) The board of directors may terminate Executive's employment at any time, but any termination by the board of directors, other than Termination for Cause, shall not prejudice Executive's right to compensation or other benefits under this Agreement. Executive shall not have the right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after Termination for Cause as defined in Section 2 hereinabove. (b) If Executive is suspended from office and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Association's affairs by a notice served under Section 8(e)(3) or 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. ss.1818(e)(3) or (g)(1)), the Association's obligations under this contract shall be suspended as of the date of service, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, the Association may in its discretion (i) pay Executive all or part of the compensation withheld while their contract obligations were suspended and (ii) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of the obligations which were suspended. (c) If Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Association's affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4) or 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. ss.1818(c)(4) or (g)(1)), all obligations of the Association under this contract shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but vested rights of the contracting parties shall not be affected. (d) If the Association is in default as defined in Section 3(x)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, all obligations of the Association under this contract shall terminate as of the date of default, but this paragraph shall not affect any vested rights of the contracting parties. 6 7 (e) All obligations under this contract shall be terminated, except to the extent determined that continuation of the contract is necessary for the continued operation of the institution: (i) by the Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision (or his or her designee) at the time the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Resolution Trust Corporation enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Association under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act; or (ii) by the Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision (or his or her designee) at the time the Director (or his or her designee) approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to operation of the Association or when the Association is determined by the Director to be in an unsafe or unsound condition. Any rights of the parties that have already vested, however, shall not be affected by such action. (f) Any payments made to Executive pursuant to this Agreement, or otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon compliance with 12 U.S.C. ss.1828(k) and any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. 10. REINSTATEMENT OF BENEFITS UNDER SECTION 9(b). -------------------------------------------- In the event Executive is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Association's affairs by a notice described in Section 9(b) hereof (the "Notice") during the term of this Agreement and a Change in Control, as defined herein, occurs, the Association will assume its obligation to pay and Executive will be entitled to receive all of the termination benefits provided for under Section 3 of this Agreement upon the Association's receipt of a dismissal of charges in the Notice of Termination. 11. SEVERABILITY. ------------ If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement, or any part of any provision, is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any part of such provision not held so invalid, and each such other provision and part thereof shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect. 12. HEADINGS FOR REFERENCE ONLY. --------------------------- The headings of sections and paragraphs herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement. 13. GOVERNING LAW. ------------- The validity, interpretation, performance, and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California but only to the extent not preempted by Federal law. 7 8 14. ARBITRATION. ----------- Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration, conducted before a panel of three arbitrators sitting in a location selected by Executive within fifty (50) miles from the location of the Association's main office, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court having jurisdiction; provided, however, that Executive shall be entitled to seek specific performance of her right to be paid until the Date of Termination during the pendency of any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement. 15. PAYMENT OF COSTS AND LEGAL FEES. ------------------------------- All reasonable costs and legal fees paid or incurred by Executive pursuant to any dispute or question of interpretation relating to this Agreement shall be paid or reimbursed by the Association (which payments are guaranteed by the Holding Company pursuant to Section 5 hereof) if Executive is successful on the merits pursuant to a legal judgment, arbitration or settlement. 16. INDEMNIFICATION. --------------- The Association shall provide Executive (including her legal representatives, successors and assigns) with coverage under a standard directors' and officers' liability insurance policy at its expense, or in lieu thereof, shall indemnify Executive (including her legal representatives, successors and assigns) for reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Executive in defending or settling any judicial or administrative proceeding, or threatened proceeding, whether civil, criminal or otherwise, including any appeal or other proceeding for review. Indemnification by the Association shall be made only upon the final judgment on the merits in the favor of Executive, in case of settlement, in case of final judgment against Executive or in the case of final judgment in favor of Executive other than on the merits, if a majority of the disinterested directors of the Association determine Executive was acting in good faith within the scope of Executive's employment or authority in accordance with 12 C.F.R. section 545.121(c)(iii). Any such indemnification of Executive must conform with the notice provisions of 12 C.F.R. Section 545.121(c)(iii) to indemnify Executive to the fullest for such expenses and liabilities to include, but not be limited to, judgments, court costs and attorneys' fees and the cost of reasonable settlements, such settlements to be approved by the Board of Directors of the Association, if such action is brought against Executive in her capacity as a officer or director of the Association, however, shall not extend to matters as to which Executive is finally adjudged to be liable for willful misconduct in the performance of her duties. 8 9 17. SUCCESSOR TO THE ASSOCIATION ---------------------------- The Association shall require any successor or assignee, whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, to all or substantially all the business or assets of the Association, expressly and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform the Association's obligations under this Agreement, in the same manner and to the same extent that the Association would be required to perform if no such succession or assignment had taken place. 9 10 SIGNATURES IN WITNESS WHEREOF, First Federal Savings and Loan Association of San Gabriel Valley and SGV Bancorp, Inc. have caused this amended and restated Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized officers, and Executive has signed this Agreement, on the _____ day of __________, 1998.

(the "Holding Company"), a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, with its office at 225 North Barranca Street, West Covina, California, and __________________ ("Executive"). The term "Association" refers to First Federal Savings and Loan Association of San Gabriel Valley, the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Holding Company or any successor thereto. WHEREAS, the Holding Company recognizes the substantial contribution Executive has made to the Holding Company and wishes to protect her position therewith for the period provided in this Agreement; and WHEREAS, Executive has agreed to serve in the employ of the Holding Company or an affiliate thereof. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the contribution and responsibilities of Executive, and upon the other terms and conditions hereinafter provided, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. TERM OF AGREEMENT. ----------------- The term of this Agreement shall be deemed to have commenced as of the date first above written and shall continue for a period of twenty-four (24) full calendar months thereafter (the "initial term"). Commencing on the first anniversary date of this Agreement, and continuing at each anniversary date thereafter, the board of directors of the Holding Company (the "Board") may extend the Agreement an additional year such that the remaining term of the Agreement shall be twenty-four (24) full calendar months. The Board will review the Agreement and Executive's performance at least annually for purposes of determining whether to extend the Agreement and the results of such review shall be included in the minutes of the Board's meeting. The Board shall give notice to the Executive as soon as possible after such review as to whether the Agreement is to be extended. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, however, in the event of a Change in Control as hereinafter defined in Section 2(b) of this Agreement, the Agreement shall be automatically renewed such that the initial term of the Agreement shall commence on the date the Change in Control occurs and the term of the Agreement shall end on the date twenty-four (24) full calendar months thereafter. 1 2 2. CHANGE IN CONTROL. ----------------- (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Holding Company (as herein defined in Section 2(b)) followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by the termination of Executive's employment, other than for Cause, as defined in Section 2(c) hereof, the provisions of Section 3 shall apply. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, Executive shall have the right to elect to voluntarily terminate her employment at any time during the term of this Agreement. (b) For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change in Control" of the Association or Holding Company shall mean an event of a nature that: (i) would be required to be reported in response to Item 1(a) of the Current Report on Form 8-K, as in effect on the date hereof, pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); or (ii) results in a Change in Control of the Association or the Holding Company within the meaning of the Home Owners' Loan Act of 1933 and the Rules and Regulations promulgated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") (or its predecessor agency), as in effect on the date hereof (provided, that in applying the definition of change in control as set forth under the rules and regulations of the OTS, the Board shall substitute its judgment for that of the OTS); or (iii) without limitation such a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred at such time as (A) any "person" (as the term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Association or the Holding Company representing 20% or more of the Association's or the Holding Company's outstanding securities except for any securities of the Association purchased by the Holding Company in connection with the conversion of the Association to the stock form and any securities purchased by any employee benefit plan of the Association, or (B) individuals who constitute the Board on the date hereof (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election was approved by a vote of at least three-quarters of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board, or whose nomination for election by the Holding Company's stockholders was approved by a Nominating Committee solely composed of members who are serving under an Incumbent Board, shall be, for purposes of this clause (B), considered as though he were a member of the Incumbent Board, (C) a plan of reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Association or the Holding Company or similar transaction occurs or is effectuated in which the Association or Holding Company is not the resulting entity, or (D) a proxy statement is distributed soliciting proxies from stockholders of the Holding Company, by someone other than the current management of the Holding Company, seeking stockholder approval of a plan of reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Holding Company or Association with one or more corporations as a result of which the outstanding shares of the class of securities then subject to such plan or transaction are exchanged for or converted into cash or property or securities not issued by the Association or the Holding Company shall be distributed, or (E) a tender offer is made and accepted for 20% or more of the voting securities of the Association or Holding Company then outstanding. (c) Executive shall not have the right to receive termination benefits pursuant to Section 3 hereof upon Termination for Cause. The term "Termination for Cause" shall mean termination 2 3 because of Executive's personal dishonesty, willful misconduct, any breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any law, rule, or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease and desist order, or any material breach of this Agreement that results in a material loss to the Association or the Holding Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been Terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to her a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-fourths of the members of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for that purpose (after reasonable notice to Executive and an opportunity for her, together with counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive was guilty of conduct justifying Termination for Cause and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. Executive shall not have the right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after Termination for Cause. Any stock options and related limited rights granted to Executive under any stock option plan, or any unvested awards granted to Executive under any stock benefit plan of the Holding Company or its subsidiaries, shall become null and void effective upon Executive's receipt of Notice of Termination For Cause pursuant to Section 8 hereof, and shall not be exercisable by or delivered to Executive at any time subsequent to such Termination For Cause. 3. TERMINATION BENEFITS. -------------------- (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by the voluntary or involuntary termination of Executive's employment, other than for Termination for Cause, the Holding Company shall pay to Executive, or in the event of her subsequent death, her beneficiary or beneficiaries, or her estate, as the case may be, as severance pay or liquidated damages or both, a sum equal to two (2) times Executive's highest annual compensation for the last 5 years. Such annual compensation shall include base salary, commissions, bonuses, contributions or accruals on behalf of Executive to any pension and profit sharing plan, any benefits to be paid or received under any stock-based benefit plan, severance payments, directors or committee fees and fringe benefits paid to Executive during such years. At the election of Executive which election is to be made prior to a Change in Control, such payment shall be made in a lump sum. In the event that no election is made, payment to Executive will be made on a monthly basis in approximately equal installments during the remaining term of this Agreement. (b) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Association or the Holding Company followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by Executive's termination of employment, other than for Termination for Cause, the Holding Company shall cause to be continued for the Executive and her previously covered dependents life, medical, dental and disability coverage that the Executive agrees is substantially equivalent to the coverage maintained by the Association for Executive and her dependents prior to her termination at no cost to the Executive. Such coverage and payments shall cease upon expiration of twenty-four (24) full calendar months following the Date of Termination. 3 4 (c) In each calendar year that the Executive is entitled to receive payments or benefits under the provisions of the Agreement, the Holding Company shall determine if an excess parachute payment (as defined in Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any successor provision thereto, (the "Code")) exists. Such determination shall be made after taking any reductions permitted pursuant to Section 280G of the Code and the regulations thereunder. Any amount determined to be an excess parachute payment after taking into account such reductions shall be hereafter referred to as the "Initial Excess Parachute Payment". As soon as practicable after a Change in Control, the Initial Excess Parachute Payment shall be determined. Upon the Date of Termination following a Change in Control, the Holding Company shall pay the Executive, subject to applicable withholding requirements under applicable state or federal law, an amount equal to: (1) twenty (20) percent of the Initial Excess Parachute Payment (or such other amount equal to the tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code); and (2) such additional amount (tax allowance) as may be necessary to compensate the Executive for the payment by the Executive of state and local and federal income and excise taxes on the payment provided under clause (1) and on any payments under this Clause (2). In computing such tax allowance, the payment to be made under Clause (1) shall be multiplied by the "gross up percentage" ("GUP"). The GUP shall be determined as follows: Tax Rate GUP = __________ 1- Tax Rate The "Tax Rate" for purposes of computing the GUP shall be the sum of the highest marginal federal and state and local income and employment-related tax rates, including any applicable excise tax rates, applicable to the Executive in the year in which the payment under Clause (1) is made. (3) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it shall subsequently be determined in a final judicial determination or a final administrative settlement to which the Executive is a party that the excess parachute payment as defined in Section 4999 of the Code, reduced as described above, is more than the Initial Excess Parachute Payment (such different amount being hereafter referred to as the "Determinative Excess Parachute Payment") then the Holding Company's independent accountants shall determine the amount (the "Adjustment Amount") the Holding Company must pay to the Executive in order to put the Executive in the same position as the Executive would have been if the Initial Excess Parachute Payment had been equal to the Determinative Excess Parachute Payment. In determining the Adjustment Amount, independent accountants of the Holding Company shall take into account any and all taxes (including any penalties and interest) paid by or for the Executive or refunded to the Executive or for the Executive's benefit. As soon as practicable after the Adjustment Amount has been so determined, the Holding Company shall pay the 4 5 Adjustment Amount to the Executive. In no event however, shall the Executive make any payment under this paragraph to the Holding Company. 4. NOTICE OF TERMINATION. --------------------- (a) Any purported termination by the Holding Company, or by Executive shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a written notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive's employment under the provision so indicated. (b) "Date of Termination" shall mean the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of Termination for Cause, shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of Termination is given); provided, however, that if a dispute regarding the Executive's termination exists, the "Date of Termination" shall be determined in accordance with Section 8(c) of this Agreement. (c) If, within thirty (30) days after any Notice of Termination is given, the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which the dispute is finally determined, either by mutual written agreement of the parties, by a binding arbitration award, or by a final judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (the time for appeal therefrom having expired and no appeal having been perfected) and provided further that the Date of Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute only if such notice is given in good faith and the party giving such notice pursues the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence. Notwithstanding the pendency of any such dispute, the Holding Company will continue to pay Executive her full compensation in effect when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given (including, but not limited to her current annual salary) and continue her as a participant in all compensation, benefit and insurance plans in which she was participating when the notice of dispute was given, until the dispute is finally resolved in accordance with this Agreement. Amounts paid under this Section 4(c) are in addition to all other amounts due under this Agreement and shall not be offset against or reduce any other amounts due under this Agreement. 5. SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. ------------------ It is intended by the parties hereto that all payments provided in this Agreement shall be paid in cash or check from the general funds of the Holding Company. Further, the Holding Company guarantees such payment and provision of all amounts and benefits due hereunder to Executive and, if such amount and benefits due from the Association are not timely paid or provided by the Association, such amounts and benefits shall be paid and provided by the Holding Company. 5 6 6. EFFECT ON PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND EXISTING BENEFIT PLANS. ----------------------------------------------------- This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior agreement between the Holding Company and Executive, except that this Agreement shall not affect or operate to reduce any benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind elsewhere provided. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean that Executive is subject to receiving fewer benefits than those available to her without reference to this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon Executive the right to continue in the employ of the Holding Company or shall impose on the Holding Company any obligation to employ or retain Executive in its employ for any period. 7. NO ATTACHMENT. ------------- (a) Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment, levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to affect any such action shall be null, void, and of no effect. (b) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Executive, the Holding Company and their respective successors and assigns. 8. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. ----------------------- (a) This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. (b) No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived. 9. REINSTATEMENT OF BENEFITS UNDER ASSOCIATION AGREEMENT. ----------------------------------------------------- In the event Executive is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Association's affairs by a notice described in Section 9(b) of the Change-in-Control Agreement between Executive and the Association dated June 28, 1995 and amended and restated as of _________________, 1998 (the "Association Agreement") during the term of this Agreement and a Change in Control, as defined herein, occurs the Holding Company will assume its obligation 6 7 to pay and Executive will be entitled to receive all of the termination benefits provided for under Section 3 of the Association Agreement upon the notification of the Holding Company of the Association's receipt of a dismissal of charges in the Notice. 10. EFFECT OF ACTION UNDER ASSOCIATION AGREEMENT. -------------------------------------------- Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, to the extent that payments and benefits are paid to or received by Executive under the Association Agreement between Executive and Association, the amount of such payments and benefits paid by the Association will be subtracted from any amount due simultaneously to Executive under similar provisions of this Agreement. 11. SEVERABILITY. ------------ If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement, or any part of any provision, is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any part of such provision not held so invalid, and each such other provision and part thereof shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect. 12. HEADINGS FOR REFERENCE ONLY. --------------------------- The headings of sections and paragraphs herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement. 13.

Commencing on the first anniversary date of this Agreement and continuing at each anniversary date thereafter, the Board of Directors of the Association ("Board") may extend the Agreement for an additional year such that the remaining term of the Agreement shall be twelve (12) full calendar months. The Board will review the Agreement and Executive's performance annually for purposes of determining whether to extend the Agreement, and the results thereof shall be included in the minutes of the Board's meeting. The Board shall give notice to the Executive as soon as possible after such review as to whether the Agreement is to be extended. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control as hereinafter defined in Section 2(b), the Agreement shall be automatically renewed such that the initial term of the Agreement shall commence on the date the Change in Control occurs and shall end on the date twelve (12) full calendar months thereafter. 1 2 2. CHANGE IN CONTROL. ----------------- (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Association or the Holding Company (as herein defined) followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by the termination of Executive's employment, other than for Cause, as defined in Section 2(c) hereof, the provisions of Section 3 shall apply. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, Executive shall have the right to elect to voluntarily terminate his employment at any time during the term of this Agreement. (b) For purposes of this Plan, a "Change in Control" of the Association or Holding Company shall mean an event of a nature that: (i) would be required to be reported in response to Item 1(a) of the Current Report on Form 8-K, as in effect on the date hereof, pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); or (ii) results in a Change in Control of the Association or the Holding Company within the meaning of the Home Owners' Loan Act of 1933 and the Rules and Regulations promulgated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") (or its predecessor agency), as in effect on the date hereof (provided, that in applying the definition of change in control as set forth under the rules and regulations of the OTS, the Board shall substitute its judgment for that of the OTS); or (iii) without limitation such a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred at such time as (A) any "person" (as the term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Association or the Holding Company representing 20% or more of the Association's or the Holding Company's outstanding securities except for any securities of the Association purchased by the Holding Company in connection with the conversion of the Association to the stock form and any securities purchased by any employee benefit plan of the Association or the Holding Company, or (B) individuals who constitute the Board on the date hereof (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election was approved by a vote of at least three-quarters of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board, or whose nomination for election by the Holding Company's stockholders was approved by a Nominating Committee solely composed of members who are serving under an Incumbent Board, shall be, for purposes of this clause (B), considered as though he were a member of the Incumbent Board, (C) a plan of reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Association or the Holding Company or similar transaction occurs or is effectuated in which the Association or Holding Company is not the resulting entity; provided, however, that such an event listed above will be deemed to have occurred or to have been effectuated upon the receipt of all required federal regulatory approvals not including the lapse of any statutory waiting periods; or (D) a proxy statement shall be distributed soliciting proxies from stockholders of the Holding Company, by someone other than the current management of the Holding Company, seeking stockholder approval of a plan of reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Holding Company or Association with one or more corporations as a result of which the outstanding shares of the class of securities then subject to such plan or transaction are exchanged for or converted into cash or property or securities not issued by the Association or the Holding Company shall be distributed; or (E) a tender offer is made and accepted 2 3 for 20% or more of the voting securities of the Association or Holding Company then outstanding. (c) Executive shall not have the right to receive termination benefits pursuant to Section 3 hereof upon Termination for Cause. The term "Termination for Cause" shall mean termination because of Executive's personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, any breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any law, rule, or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease-and-desist order, or material breach of any provision of this Agreement. In determining incompetence, the acts or omissions shall be measured against the generally prevailing standards of professional competence for officers having comparable positions in the savings institutions industry. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been Terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to him a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the Board of Directors of the Association at a meeting of the Board called and held for that purpose (after reasonable notice to Executive and an opportunity for him, together with counsel, to be heard before the Board at such meeting and which such meeting shall be held not more than 30 days from the date of notice during which period Executive may be suspended with pay), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive was guilty of conduct justifying Termination for Cause and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. Executive shall not have the right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after Termination for Cause. Any stock options and related limited rights granted to Executive under any stock option plan of the Association, or any unvested awards granted to Executive under any stock benefit plan of the Holding Company or its subsidiaries shall become null and void effective upon Executive's receipt of Notice of Termination for Cause and shall not be exercisable by or delivered to Executive at any time subsequent to such Termination for Cause. 3. TERMINATION BENEFITS. -------------------- (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by termination of the Executive's employment due to: (1) Executive's dismissal or (2) Executive's voluntary termination pursuant to Section 2(a), unless such termination is due to Termination for Cause, the Association and the Holding Company shall pay Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, an amount equal to Executive's highest annual compensation for the last 5 years; provided that Executive may not receive an amount in excess of the Executive's average annual compensation for the five most recent taxable years. Annual compensation shall include base salary, commissions, bonuses, contributions or accruals on behalf of Executive to any pension and profit sharing plan, any benefits to be paid or received under any stock-based benefit plan, severance payments, directors or committee fees and fringe benefits paid or to be paid to the Executive during such years. At the election of Executive, which election is to be made prior to a Change in Control, such payment shall be made in a lump sum. In the event that no election is made, payment to Executive will be made on a monthly basis in approximately equal installments during the remaining term of this Agreement. (b) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Association or the Holding Company followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by Executive's voluntary or 3 4 involuntary termination of employment, other than for Termination for Cause, the Association shall cause to be continued for the Executive and his previously covered dependents life, medical, dental and disability coverage that the Executive agrees is substantially equivalent to the coverage maintained by the Association or Holding Company for Executive and his dependents prior to his termination except to the extent coverage may be changed in its application to all Association and Holding Company employees on a nondiscriminatory basis, at no cost to the Executive. Such coverage and payments shall cease upon the expiration of twelve (12) full calendar months from the Date of Termination. (c) Notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3, in no event shall the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive under said paragraphs (the "Termination Benefits") constitute an "excess parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Code or any successor thereto, and in order to avoid such a result Termination Benefits will be reduced, if necessary, to an amount (the "Non-Triggering Amount"), the value of which is one dollar ($1.00) less than an amount equal to three (3) times Executive's "base amount," as determined in accordance with said Section 280G. The allocation of the reduction required hereby among the Termination Benefits provided by the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3 shall be determined by Executive. 4. NOTICE OF TERMINATION. --------------------- (a) Any purported termination by the Association or by Executive in connection with a Change in Control shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a written notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive's employment under the provision so indicated. (b) "Date of Termination" shall mean the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the instance of Termination for Cause, shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of Termination is given); provided, however, that if a dispute regarding the Executive's termination exists, the "Date of Termination" shall be determined in accordance with Section 8(c) of the Agreement. (c) If, within thirty (30) days after any Notice of Termination is given, the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which the dispute is finally determined, either by mutual written agreement of the parties, by a binding arbitration award, or by a final judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (the time for appeal therefrom having expired and no appeal having been perfected) and provided further that the Date of Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute only if such notice is given in good faith and the party giving such notice pursues the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence. Notwithstanding the pendency of any such dispute in connection with a Change in Control, the Association will continue to pay Executive his full compensation in effect when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given (including, but not limited to his current annual salary) and continue him as a participant in all 4 5 compensation, benefit and insurance plans in which he was participating when the notice of dispute was given, until the earlier of: (1) the resolution of the dispute in accordance with this Agreement or (2) the expiration of the remaining term of this Agreement as determined as of the Date of Termination. Amounts paid under this Section 4(c) are in addition to all other amounts due under this Agreement and shall not be offset against or reduce any other amounts due under this Agreement. 5. SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. ------------------ It is intended by the parties hereto that all payments provided in this Agreement shall be paid in cash or check from the general funds of the Association. Further, the Holding Company guarantees such payment and provision of all amounts and benefits due hereunder to Executive and, if such amounts and benefits due from the Association are not timely paid or provided by the Association, such amounts and benefits shall be paid or provided by the Holding Company. 6. EFFECT ON PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND EXISTING BENEFIT PLANS. ----------------------------------------------------- This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior agreement between the Association and Executive, except that this Agreement shall not affect or operate to reduce any benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind elsewhere provided. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean that Executive is subject to receiving fewer benefits than those available to him without reference to this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon Executive the right to continue in the employ of Association or shall impose on the Association any obligation to employ or retain Executive in its employ for any period. 7. NO ATTACHMENT. ------------- (a) Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment, levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to affect any such action shall be null, void, and of no effect. (b) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Executive, the Association and their respective successors and assigns. 8. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. ----------------------- (a) This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. 5 6 (b) No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived. 9. REQUIRED REGULATORY PROVISIONS. ------------------------------ (a) The board of directors may terminate Executive's employment at any time, but any termination by the board of directors, other than Termination for Cause, shall not prejudice Executive's right to compensation or other benefits under this Agreement. Executive shall not have the right to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after Termination for Cause as defined in Section 2 hereinabove. (b) If Executive is suspended from office and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Association's affairs by a notice served under Section 8(e)(3) or 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. ss.1818(e)(3) or (g)(1)), the Association's obligations under this contract shall be suspended as of the date of service, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, the Association may in its discretion (i) pay Executive all or part of the compensation withheld while their contract obligations were suspended and (ii) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of the obligations which were suspended. (c) If Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Association's affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4) or 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. ss.1818(c)(4) or (g)(1)), all obligations of the Association under this contract shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but vested rights of the contracting parties shall not be affected. (d) If the Association is in default as defined in Section 3(x)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, all obligations of the Association under this contract shall terminate as of the date of default, but this paragraph shall not affect any vested rights of the contracting parties. (e) All obligations under this contract shall be terminated, except to the extent determined that continuation of the contract is necessary for the continued operation of the institution: (i) by the Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision (or his or her designee) at the time the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Resolution Trust Corporation enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Association under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act; or (ii) by the Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision (or his or her designee) at the time the Director (or his or her designee) approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to operation of the Association or when the Association is determined by the Director to be in an unsafe or unsound condition. Any rights of the parties that have already vested, however, shall not be affected by such action. 6 7 (f) Any payments made to Executive pursuant to this Agreement, or otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon compliance with 12 U.S.C. ss.1828(k) and any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. 10. REINSTATEMENT OF BENEFITS UNDER SECTION 9(b). -------------------------------------------- In the event Executive is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Association's affairs by a notice described in Section 9(b) hereof (the "Notice") during the term of this Agreement and a Change in Control, as defined herein, occurs, the Association will assume its obligation to pay and Executive will be entitled to receive all of the termination benefits provided for under Section 3 of this Agreement upon the Association's receipt of a dismissal of charges in the Notice of Termination. 11. SEVERABILITY. ------------ If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement, or any part of any provision, is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any part of such provision not held so invalid, and each such other provision and part thereof shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect. 12. HEADINGS FOR REFERENCE ONLY. --------------------------- The headings of sections and paragraphs herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement. 13. GOVERNING LAW. ------------- The validity, interpretation, performance, and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California but only to the extent not preempted by Federal law. 14. ARBITRATION. ----------- Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by binding arbitration, conducted before a panel of three arbitrators sitting in a location selected by Executive within fifty (50) miles from the location of the Association's main office, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court having jurisdiction; provided, however, that Executive shall be entitled to seek specific performance of his right to be paid until the Date of Termination during the pendency of any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement. 7 8 15. PAYMENT OF COSTS AND LEGAL FEES. ------------------------------- All reasonable costs and legal fees paid or incurred by Executive pursuant to any dispute or question of interpretation relating to this Agreement shall be paid or reimbursed by the Association (which payments are guaranteed by the Holding Company pursuant to Section 5 hereof) if Executive is successful on the merits pursuant to a legal judgment, arbitration or settlement. 16. INDEMNIFICATION. --------------- The Association shall provide Executive (including his or her legal representatives, successors and assigns) with coverage under a standard directors' and officers' liability insurance policy at its expense, or in lieu thereof, shall indemnify Executive (including his or her legal representatives, successors and assigns) for reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Executive in defending or settling any judicial or administrative proceeding, or threatened proceeding, whether civil, criminal or otherwise, including any appeal or other proceeding for review. Indemnification by the Association shall be made only upon the final judgment on the merits in the favor of Executive, in case of settlement, in case of final judgment against Executive or in the case of final judgment in favor of Executive other than on the merits, if a majority of the disinterested directors of the Association determine Executive was acting in good faith within the scope of Executive's employment or authority in accordance with 12 C.F.R. section 545.121(c)(iii). Any such indemnification of Executive must conform with the notice provisions of 12 C.F.R. Section 545.121(c)(iii) to indemnify Executive to the fullest for such expenses and liabilities to include, but not be limited to, judgments, court costs and attorneys' fees and the cost of reasonable settlements, such settlements to be approved by the Board of Directors of the Association, if such action is brought against Executive in his or her capacity as a officer or director of the Association, however, shall not extend to matters as to which Executive is finally adjudged to be liable for willful misconduct in the performance of his or her duties. 17. SUCCESSOR TO THE ASSOCIATION. ---------------------------- The Association shall require any successor or assignee, whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, to all or substantially all the business or assets of the Association, expressly and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform the Association's obligations under this Agreement, in the same manner and to the same extent that the Association would be required to perform if no such succession or assignment had taken place. 8 9 SIGNATURES IN WITNESS WHEREOF, First Federal Savings and Loan Association of San Gabriel Valley and SGV Bancorp, Inc. have caused this amended and restated Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized officers, and Executive has signed this amended and restated Agreement, on the _____ day of __________, 1998.

The Committee shall determine -------------------------------------- the term during which a Participant may exercise a Non-statutory Stock Option, but in no event may a Participant exercise a Non-statutory Stock Option, in whole or in part, more than ten (10) years from the Date of Grant. The Committee shall also determine the date on which each Non-statutory Stock Option, or any part thereof, first becomes exercisable and any terms or conditions a Participant must satisfy in order to exercise each Non-statutory Stock Option prior to each Non-statutory Stock Option becoming exercisable. The shares of Common Stock underlying each Non-statutory Stock Option or any portion thereof which has become exercisable may be purchased in whole or in part by the Participant at any time during the term of such Non-statutory Stock Option. (c) Non-Transferability. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in ------------------- accordance with this Section 6(c), a Participant may not transfer, assign, hypothecate, or dispose of in any manner, other than by will or the laws of intestate succession, a Non- 6 7 statutory Stock Option. The Committee may, however, in its sole discretion, permit transferability or assignment of a Nonstatutory Stock Option if such transfer or assignment is, in its sole determination, for valid estate planning purposes and such transfer or assignment is permitted under the Code and Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. For purposes of this Section 6(c), a transfer for valid estate planning purposes includes, but is not limited to: (a) a transfer to a revocable intervivos trust as to which the Participant is both the settlor and trustee, (b) a transfer for no consideration to: (i) any member of the Participant's Immediate Family, (ii) any trust solely for the benefit of members of the Participant's Immediate Family, (iii) any partnership whose only partners are members of the Participant's Immediate Family, and (iv) any limited liability corporation or corporate entity whose only members or equity owners are members of the Participant's Immediate Family. For purposes of this Section 6(c), "Immediate Family" includes, but is not necessarily limited to, a Participant's parents, grandparents, spouse, children, grandchildren, siblings (including half bothers and sisters), and individuals who are family members by adoption. Nothing contained in this Section 6(c) shall be construed to require the Committee to give its approval to any transfer or assignment of any Nonstatutory Stock Option or portion thereof, and approval to transfer or assign any Non-statutory Stock Option or portion thereof does not mean that such approval will be given with respect to any other Non-statutory Stock Option or portion thereof. The transferee or assignee of any Non-statutory Stock Option shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions applicable to such Non-statutory Stock Option immediately prior to the transfer or assignment and shall be subject to any other conditions proscribed by the Committee with respect to such Non-statutory Stock Option. (d) Termination of Employment or Service (General). Unless otherwise ------------------------------------------------- determined by the Committee and except as otherwise provided in the Plan, upon the termination of a Participant's employment or service for any reason other than Retirement, Disability or death, Change in Control, or Termination for Cause, the Participant's Non-statutory Stock Options shall be exercisable only as to those shares that were immediately exercisable by the Participant at the date of termination and only for a period of three (3) months following the date of such termination. (e) Termination of Employment or Service (Retirement). Unless otherwise -------------------------------------------------- determined by the Committee, in the event of a Participant's Retirement, the Participant's Non-statutory Stock Options shall be exercisable only as to those shares that were immediately exercisable by the Participant at the date of Retirement and shall remain exercisable for a period of one (1) year following the date of Retirement; provided however, that upon the Participant's Retirement, the Committee, in its discretion, may determine that all unexercisable Non-statutory Stock Options that were not exercisable by the Participant as of such date shall continue to become exercisable in accordance with the Award Agreement if the Participant is immediately engaged by the Holding Company or an Affiliate as a consultant or advisor or continues to serve the Holding Company or an Affiliate as a director or advisory director. (f) Termination of Employment or Service (Disability or death). Unless ------------------------------------------------------------ otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event of the termination of a Participant's employment or service due to Disability or death, all unvested Non-statutory Stock Options held by such Participant shall immediately become exercisable and remain exercisable for a period one (1) year following the date of such termination. 7 8 (g) Termination of Employment or Service (Change in Control). In the event --------------------------------------------------------- of a Change in Control, all unvested Non-statutory Stock Options held by such Participant shall immediately become exercisable and remain exercisable for a period one (1) year following the Change in Control. (h) Termination of Employment or Service (Cause). Unless otherwise ------------------------------------------------- determined by the Committee, in the event of a Participant's Termination for Cause, all rights with respect to the Participant's Non-statutory Stock Options shall expire immediately upon the effective date of such Termination for Cause. (i) Payment. Payment due to a Participant upon the exercise of a -------- Non-statutory Stock Option shall be made in the form of shares of Common Stock. 7. INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. ----------------------- The Committee may, subject to the limitations of the Plan and the availability of shares of Common Stock reserved but unawarded under the Plan, grant Incentive Stock Options to an Employee upon such terms and conditions as it may determine consistent with the following provisions: (a) Exercise Price. The Committee shall determine the Exercise Price of --------------- each Incentive Stock Option. However, the Exercise Price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant. However, if at the time an Incentive Stock Option is granted, the Employee owns or is treated as owning, for purposes of Section 422 of the Code, Common Stock representing more than 10% of the total combined voting securities of the Holding Company ("10% Owner"), the Exercise Price shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant. (b) Amounts of Incentive Stock Options. To the extent the aggregate Fair ----------------------------------- Market Value of shares of Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options that are exercisable for the first time by an Employee during any calendar year under the Plan and any other stock option plan of the Holding Company or an Affiliate exceeds $100,000, or such higher value as may be permitted under Section 422 of the Code, such Options in excess of such limit shall be treated as Non-statutory Stock Options. Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the Date of Grant with respect to each such Incentive Stock Option. (c) Terms of Incentive Stock Options. The Committee shall determine the --------------------------------- term during which a Participant may exercise an Incentive Stock Option, but in no event may a Participant exercise an Incentive Stock Option, in whole or in part, more than ten (10) years from the Date of Grant; provided, however, that if at the time an Incentive Stock Option is granted to an Employee, the Employee is a 10% Owner, the Incentive Stock Option granted to such Employee shall not be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the Date of Grant. The Committee shall also determine the date on which each Incentive Stock Option, or any part thereof, first becomes 8 9 exercisable and any terms or conditions a Participant must satisfy prior to the Incentive Stock Option becoming exercisable. The shares of Common Stock underlying each Incentive Stock Option may be purchased in whole or in part at any time during the term of such Incentive Stock Option after such Option becomes exercisable. (d) Non-Transferability. No Incentive Stock Option shall be transferable ------------------- except by will or the laws of descent and distribution and is exercisable, during his lifetime, only by the Employee to whom the Committee grants the Incentive Stock Option. The designation of a beneficiary does not constitute a transfer. (e) Termination of Employment (General). Unless otherwise determined by ------------------------------------ the Committee and except as otherwise provided in the Plan, upon the termination of an Employee's employment for any reason other than Retirement, Disability or death, Change in Control or Termination for Cause, the Employee's Incentive Stock Options shall be exercisable only as to those Incentive Stock Options that were immediately exercisable by the Employee at the date of termination and only for a period of three (3) months following such termination. (f) Termination of Employment (Retirement). Unless otherwise determined by -------------------------------------- the Committee, in the event of an Employee's Retirement, the Employee's Incentive Stock Options shall be exercisable only as to those shares that were immediately exercisable by the Employee at the date of Retirement and remain exercisable for a period of one (1) year following the date of Retirement; provided however, that upon the Employee's Retirement, the Committee, in its discretion, may determine that all unexercisable Incentive Stock Options shall continue to become exercisable in accordance with the Award Agreement if the Employee is immediately engaged by the Holding Company or an Affiliate as a consultant or advisor or continues to serve the Holding Company or an Affiliate as a director or advisory director. Any Option originally designated as an Incentive Stock Option shall be treated as a Non-statutory Stock Option to the extent the Participant exercises such Option more than three (3) months following the Participant's date of Retirement. (g) Termination of Employment (Disability or death). Unless otherwise ------------------------------------------------- determined by the Committee, in the event of the termination of an Employee's service for Disability or death, all unvested Incentive Stock Options held by such Employee shall immediately become exercisable and shall remain exercisable for one (1) year after such termination. (h) Termination of Employment (Change in Control). In the event of a ------------------------------------------------- Change in Control, all unvested Incentive Stock Options held by such Employee shall immediately become exercisable and shall remain exercisable for one (1) year after such Change in Control, provided that any option originally designated as an Incentive Stock Option shall be treated as a Non-statutory Stock Option to the extent the Participant exercises such Option more than three (3) months following the Change in Control. (i) Termination of Employment (Cause). Unless otherwise determined by the --------------------------------- Committee, in the event of an Employee's Termination for Cause, all rights under such Employee's 9 10 Incentive Stock Options shall expire immediately upon the effective date of such Termination for Cause. (j) Payment. Payment due to a Participant upon the exercise of an ------- Incentive Stock Option shall be made in the form of shares of Common Stock. (k) Disqualifying Dispositions. Each Award Agreement with respect to an --------------------------- Incentive Stock Option shall require the Participant to notify the Committee of any disposition of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of such Option under the circumstances described in Section 421(b) of the Code (relating to certain disqualifying dispositions), within 10 days of such disposition. As of the Effective Date of this Plan, a disqualifying disposition means any disposition of the shares of Common Stock within two years from the date of the grant of the Incentive Stock Option to which such shares relate or within one year of the date such shares are transferred to the Participant pursuant to his exercise of the Incentive Stock Option. 8. LIMITED RIGHTS. -------------- Simultaneously with the grant of any Option, the Committee may grant a Limited Right with respect to all or some of the shares of Common Stock covered by such Option, subject to the following terms and conditions: (a) Terms of Rights. In no event shall a Limited Right be exercisable in --------------- whole or in part before the expiration of six (6) months from the Date of Grant of the Limited Right. A Limited Right may be exercised only in the event of a Change in Control of the Holding Company that is not to be accounted for as a pooling of interests or in the event the Holding Company's independent auditors opine that the exercise of such Limited Rights would not adversely affect the accounting treatment intended for the Change in Control. The Limited Right may be exercised only when the underlying Option is eligible to be exercised, and only when the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares on the day of exercise is greater than the Exercise Price of the underlying Option. Upon exercise of a Limited Right, the underlying Option shall cease to be exercisable and shall be terminated. Upon exercise or termination of an Option, any related Limited Rights shall terminate. The Limited Right is transferable only when the underlying Option is transferable and under the same conditions. (b) Payment. Upon exercise of a Limited Right, the holder shall promptly ------- receive from the Holding Company or an Affiliate an amount of cash equal to the difference between the Exercise Price of the underlying Option and the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to such Option on the date the Limited Right is exercised, multiplied by the number of shares with respect to which such Limited Right is being exercised. 10 11 9. STOCK AWARDS. ------------ The Committee may, subject to the limitations of the Plan, make Stock Awards which shall consist of the grant of some number of shares of Common Stock to a Participant subject to the following terms and conditions: (a) Grants of the Stock Awards. Stock Awards may only be made in whole --------------------------- shares of Common Stock. Stock Awards may only be granted from shares reserved under the Plan and available for award at the time the Stock Award is made to the Participant. (b) Terms of the Stock Awards. The Committee shall determine the dates on ------------------------- which Stock Awards granted to a Participant shall vest and any terms or conditions which must be satisfied prior to the vesting of any Stock Award or portion thereof. Any such terms or conditions shall be determined by the Committee as of the Date of Grant. (c) Termination of Employment or Service (General). Unless otherwise ------------------------------------------------- determined by the Committee and except as otherwise provided in the Plan, upon the termination of a Participant's employment or service for any reason other than Retirement, Disability or death, Change in Control or Termination for Cause, the Participant's unvested Stock Awards as of the date of termination shall be forfeited and any rights the Participant had to such unvested Stock Awards shall become null and void. (d) Termination of Employment or Service (Retirement). Unless otherwise -------------------------------------------------- determined by the Committee, in the event of a Participant's Retirement, the Participant's unvested Stock Awards as of the date of Retirement shall be forfeited and any rights the Participant had to such unvested Stock Awards shall become null and void; provided however, that upon the Participant's Retirement, the Committee, in its discretion, may determine that all unvested Stock Awards shall continue to vest in accordance with the Award Agreement if the Participant is immediately engaged by the Holding Company or an Affiliate as a consultant or advisor or continues to serve the Holding Company or an Affiliate as a director or advisory director. (e) Termination of Employment or Service (Disability or death). Unless ------------------------------------------------------------ otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event of a termination of the Participant's service due to Disability or death, all unvested Stock Awards held by such Participant shall immediately vest as of the date of such termination. (f) Termination of Employment or Service (Change in Control). In the event -------------------------------------------------------- of a Change in Control, all unvested Stock Awards held by such Participant shall immediately vest as of the date of the Change in Control. (g) Termination of Employment or Service (Cause). Unless otherwise ------------------------------------------------- determined by the Committee, in the event of the Participant's Termination for Cause, all unvested Stock Awards 11 12 held by such Participant as of the effective date of such Termination for Cause shall be forfeited and any rights such Participant had to such unvested Stock Awards shall become null and void. (h) Issuance of Certificates. Unless otherwise held in Trust and -------------------------- registered in the name of the Trustee, (i) reasonably promptly after the Date of Grant with respect to shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Stock Award, the Holding Company shall cause to be issued a stock certificate, registered in the name of the Participant to whom such Stock Award was granted, evidencing such shares; provided, that the Holding Company shall not cause such a stock certificate to be issued unless it has received a stock power duly endorsed in blank with respect to such shares. Each such stock certificate shall bear the following legend: "The transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the restrictions, terms and conditions (including forfeiture provisions and restrictions against transfer) contained in the SGV Bancorp, Inc. Amended 1997 Stock-Based Incentive Plan and the Award Agreement entered into between the registered owner of such shares and SGV Bancorp, Inc. or its Affiliates. A copy of the Plan and Award Agreement is on file in the office of the Corporate Secretary of SGV Bancorp, Inc., 225 North Barranca Street, West Covina, California 91791- 1080." Such legend shall not be removed until such shares vest pursuant to the terms of the Plan. (ii) Each certificate issued pursuant to this Section 9(h), in connection with a Stock Award, shall be held by the Holding Company or its Affiliates unless the Committee determines otherwise. (i) Non-Transferability. Except to the extent permitted by the Code, the ------------------- rules promulgated under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or any successor statutes or rules: (i) The recipient of a Stock Award shall not sell, transfer, assign, pledge, or otherwise encumber shares subject to the Stock Award until full vesting of such shares has occurred. For purposes of this section, the separation of beneficial ownership and legal title through the use of any "swap" transaction is deemed to be a prohibited encumbrance. (ii) Unless determined otherwise by the Committee and except in the event of the Participant's death or pursuant to a domestic relations order, a Stock Award is not transferable and may be earned in his lifetime only by the Participant to whom it is granted. Upon the death of a Participant, a Stock Award is transferable by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute a transfer. 12 13 (iii) If a recipient of a Stock Award is subject to the provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shares of Common Stock subject to such Stock Award may not, without the written consent of the Committee (which consent may be given in the Award Agreement), be sold or otherwise disposed of within six (6) months following the date of grant of the Stock Award. (j) Accrual of Dividends. Whenever shares of Common Stock underlying a --------------------- Stock Award are distributed to a Participant or beneficiary thereof under the Plan, such Participant or beneficiary shall also be entitled to receive, with respect to each such share distributed, a payment equal to any cash dividends and the number of shares of Common Stock equal to any stock dividends, declared and paid with respect to a share of the Common Stock if the record date for determining shareholders entitled to receive such dividends falls between the date the relevant Stock Award was granted and the date the relevant Stock Award or installment thereof is issued. There shall also be distributed an appropriate amount of net earnings, if any, of the Trust with respect to any dividends paid out on the shares related to the Stock Award. (k) Voting of Stock Awards. After a Stock Award has been granted but for ----------------------- which the shares covered by such Stock Award have not yet been vested, earned and distributed to the Participant pursuant to the Plan, the Participant shall be entitled to vote or to direct the Trustee to vote, as the case may be, such shares of Common Stock which the Stock Award covers subject to the rules and procedures adopted by the Committee for this purpose and in a manner consistent with the Trust agreement. (l) Payment. Payment due to a Participant upon the redemption of a Stock ------- Award shall be made in the form of shares of Common Stock. 10. PERFORMANCE AWARDS ------------------ (a) The Committee may determine to make any Award under the Plan contingent upon the achievement of any conditions related to the performance of the Holding Company or its Affiliates. Each Performance Award shall be evidenced in the Award Agreement, which shall set forth the applicable conditions of performance applicable to the Award, the maximum amounts payable and such other terms and conditions as are applicable to the Performance Award. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, each Performance Award shall be granted and administered to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code, and shall be subject to the conditions set forth below in paragraphs (b) through (f). (b) Any Performance Award shall be made not later than 90 days after the start of the period for which the Performance Award relates and shall be made prior to the completion of 25% of such period. All determinations regarding the achievement of any Performance criteria will be made by the Committee. The Committee may not increase during a year the amount of a Performance Award that would otherwise be payable upon achievement of the Performance criteria but may reduce or eliminate the payments as provided for in the Award Agreement. 13 14 (c) Nothing contained in the Plan will be deemed in any way to limit or restrict the Committee from making any Award or payment to any person under any other plan, arrangement or understanding, whether now existing or hereafter in effect. (d) A Participant who receives a Performance Award payable in Common Stock shall have no rights as a shareholder until the Common Stock is issued pursuant to the terms of the Award Agreement. The Common Stock may be issued without cash consideration. (e) A Participant's interest in a Performance Award may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise encumbered. (f) No Award or portion thereof that is subject to the attainment or satisfaction of a condition or Performance criteria shall be distributed or considered to be earned or vested until the Committee certifies in writing that the conditions or Performance criteria to which the distribution, earning or vesting of such Award is subject has been achieved. 11. DEFERRED PAYMENTS ----------------- The Committee, in its discretion, may permit a Participant to elect to defer receipt of all or any part of any cash or stock payment under the Plan, or the Committee may determine to defer receipt by some or all Participants, of all or part of any such payment. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of any such deferral, including the period of deferral, the manner of deferral, and the method for measuring appreciation on deferred amounts until their payout. 12. METHOD OF EXERCISE OF OPTIONS ----------------------------- Subject to any applicable Award Agreement, any Option may be exercised by the Participant in whole or in part at such time or times, and the Participant may make payment of the Exercise Price in such form or forms, including, without limitation, payment by delivery of cash, Common Stock or other consideration (including, where permitted by law and the Committee, Awards) having a Fair Market Value on the exercise date equal to the total Exercise Price, or by any combination of cash, shares of Common Stock and other consideration, including exercise by means of a cashless exercise arrangement with a qualifying broker-dealer, as the Committee may specify in the applicable Award Agreement. 13. RIGHTS OF PARTICIPANTS ---------------------- No Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by an Option until the date of issuance of a stock certificate for such Common Stock. Nothing contained herein or in any Award Agreement confers on any person any right to continue in the employ or service of the Holding Company or an Affiliate or interferes in any way with the right of the Holding Company or an Affiliate to terminate a Participant's services. 14 15 14. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY. -------------------------- A Participant may, with the consent of the Committee, designate a person or persons to receive, in the event of death, any Award to which the Participant would then be entitled. Such designation will be made upon forms supplied by and delivered to the Holding Company and may be revoked in writing. If a Participant fails effectively to designate a beneficiary, then the Participant's estate will be deemed to be the beneficiary. 15. DILUTION AND OTHER ADJUSTMENTS. ------------------------------ In the event of any change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend or split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, reorganization, combination or exchange of shares, or other similar corporate change, or other increase or decrease in such shares without receipt or payment of consideration by the Holding Company, or in the event an extraordinary capital distribution is made, the Committee may make such adjustments to previously granted Awards, to prevent dilution, diminution, or enlargement of the rights of the Participant, including any or all of the following: (a) adjustments in the aggregate number or kind of shares of Common Stock or other securities that may underlie future Awards under the Plan; (b) adjustments in the aggregate number or kind of shares of Common Stock or other securities underlying Awards already made under the Plan; (c) adjustments in the Exercise Price of outstanding Incentive and/or Non-statutory Stock Options, or any Limited Rights attached to such Options. No such adjustments may, however, materially change the value of benefits available to a Participant under a previously granted Award. All Awards under this Plan shall be binding upon any successors or assigns of the Holding Company. 16. TAX WITHHOLDING. --------------- (a) Whenever under this Plan, cash or shares of Common Stock are to be delivered upon exercise or payment of an Award or any other event with respect to rights and benefits hereunder, the Committee shall be entitled to require as a condition of delivery (i) that the Participant remit an amount sufficient to satisfy all federal, state, and local withholding tax requirements related thereto, (ii) that the withholding of such sums come from compensation otherwise due to the Participant or from any shares of Common Stock due to the Participant under this Plan or (iii) any combination of the foregoing provided, however, that no amount shall be withheld from any cash payment or shares of Common Stock relating to an Award which was transferred by the Participant in accordance with this Plan. 15 16 (b) If any disqualifying disposition described in Section 7(k) is made with respect to shares of Common Stock acquired under an Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to this Plan, or any transfer described in Section 6(c) is made, or any election described in Section 17 is made, then the person making such disqualifying disposition, transfer, or election shall remit to the Holding Company or its Affiliates an amount sufficient to satisfy all federal, state, and local withholding taxes thereby incurred; provided that, in lieu of or in addition to the foregoing, the Holding Company or its Affiliates shall have the right to withhold such sums from compensation otherwise due to the Participant, or, except in the case of any transfer pursuant to Section 6(c), from any shares of Common Stock due to the Participant under this Plan. 17. NOTIFICATION UNDER SECTION 83(b) -------------------------------- The Committee may, on the Date of Grant or any later date, prohibit a Participant from making the election described below. If the Committee has not prohibited such Participant from making such election, and the Participant shall, in connection with the exercise of any Option, or the grant of any Stock Award, make the election permitted under Section 83(b) of the Code (i.e., an election to include in such Participant's gross income in the year of transfer the amounts specified in Section 83(b) of the Code), such Participant shall notify the Committee of such election within 10 days of filing notice of the election with the Internal Revenue Service, in addition to any filing and notification required pursuant to regulations issued under the authority of Section 83(b) of the Code. 18. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN AND AWARDS. -------------------------------- (a) Except as provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 18, the Board of Directors may at any time, and from time to time, modify or amend the Plan in any respect, prospectively or retroactively; provided however, that provisions governing grants of Incentive Stock Options shall be submitted for shareholder approval to the extent required by such law, regulation or interpretation. Failure to ratify or approve amendments or modifications by shareholders shall be effective only as to the specific amendment or modification requiring such ratification. Other provisions of this Plan will remain in full force and effect. No such termination, modification or amendment may adversely affect the rights of a Participant under an outstanding Award without the written permission of such Participant. (b) Except as provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 18, the Committee may amend any Award Agreement, prospectively or retroactively; provided, however, that no such amendment shall adversely affect the rights of any Participant under an outstanding Award without the written consent of such Participant. (c) In no event shall the Board of Directors amend the Plan or shall the Committee amend an Award Agreement in any manner that has the effect of: 16 17 (i) Allowing any Option to be granted with an exercise price below the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant. (ii) Except as required under Section 15 hereof, allowing the exercise price of any Option previously granted under the Plan to be reduced subsequent to the Date of Award without receipt of stockholder approval. 19. EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN. ---------------------- The Plan originally became effective on July 21, 1997; the Amended 1997 Stock-Based Incentive Plan became effective upon approval by the Board of Directors of SGV Bancorp, Inc. on July 24, 1998. 20. TERMINATION OF THE PLAN. ----------------------- The right to grant Awards under the Plan will terminate upon the earlier of: (i) ten (10) years after the Effective Date; (ii) the issuance of a number of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of Options or the distribution of Stock Awards which together with the exercise of Limited Rights is equivalent to the maximum number of shares reserved under the Plan as set forth in Section 4 hereof. The Board of Directors has the right to suspend or terminate the Plan at any time, provided that no such action will, without the consent of a Participant, adversely affect a Participant's vested rights under a previously granted Award. 21. APPLICABLE LAW. -------------- The Plan will be administered in accordance with the laws of the state of California and applicable federal law. 17 18 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Holding Company has established this Plan, as adopted by the Board of Directors of SGV Bancorp, Inc. on ______________, 1998.

The transferee or assignee of any Non-statutory Stock Option shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions applicable to such Non-statutory Stock Option immediately prior to the transfer or assignment and shall be subject to any other conditions proscribed by the Committee with respect to such Non-statutory Stock Option.

(f) Termination of Employment or Service (Disability or death). Unless ------------------------------------------------------------ otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event of the termination of a Participant's employment or 7 8 service due to Disability or death, all unvested Non-statutory Stock Options held by such Participant shall immediately become exercisable and remain exercisable for a period one (1) year following the date of such termination.

A Limited Right may be exercised only in the event of a Change in Control of the Holding Company that is not to be accounted for as a pooling of interests or in the event the Holding Company's independent auditors opine that the exercise of such Limited Rights would not adversely affect the accounting treatment intended for the Change in Control. The Limited Right may be exercised only when the underlying Option is eligible to be exercised, and only when the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares on the day of exercise is greater than the Exercise Price of the underlying Option.

(ii) Unless determined otherwise by the Committee and except in the event of the Participant's death or pursuant to a domestic relations order, a Stock Award is not transferable and may be earned in his lifetime only by the Participant to whom it is granted. Upon the death of a Participant, a Stock Award is transferable by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute a transfer. 12 13 (iii) If a recipient of a Stock Award is subject to the provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shares of Common Stock subject to such Stock Award may not, without the written consent of the Committee (which consent may be given in the Award Agreement), be sold or otherwise disposed of within six (6) months following the date of grant of the Stock Award. (j) Accrual of Dividends. Whenever shares of Common Stock underlying a --------------------- Stock Award are distributed to a Participant or beneficiary thereof under the Plan, such Participant or beneficiary shall also be entitled to receive, with respect to each such share distributed, a payment equal to any cash dividends and the number of shares of Common Stock equal to any stock dividends, declared and paid with respect to a share of the Common Stock if the record date for determining shareholders entitled to receive such dividends falls between the date the relevant Stock Award was granted and the date the relevant Stock Award or installment thereof is issued. There shall also be distributed an appropriate amount of net earnings, if any, of the Trust with respect to any dividends paid out on the shares related to the Stock Award. (k) Voting of Stock Awards. After a Stock Award has been granted but for ----------------------- which the shares covered by such Stock Award have not yet been vested, earned and distributed to the Participant pursuant to the Plan, the Participant shall be entitled to vote or to direct the Trustee to vote, as the case may be, such shares of Common Stock which the Stock Award covers subject to the rules and procedures adopted by the Committee for this purpose and in a manner consistent with the Trust agreement. (l) Payment. Payment due to a Participant upon the redemption of a Stock ------- Award shall be made in the form of shares of Common Stock. 10.

(b) Any Performance Award shall be made not later than 90 days after the start of the period for which the Performance Award relates and shall be made prior to the completion of 25% of such period. All determinations regarding the achievement of any Performance criteria will be made by the Committee. The Committee may not increase during a year the amount of a Performance Award that would otherwise be payable upon achievement of the Performance criteria but may reduce or eliminate the payments as provided for in the Award Agreement. 13 14 (c) Nothing contained in the Plan will be deemed in any way to limit or restrict the Committee from making any Award or payment to any person under any other plan, arrangement or understanding, whether now existing or hereafter in effect. (d) A Participant who receives a Performance Award payable in Common Stock shall have no rights as a shareholder until the Common Stock is issued pursuant to the terms of the Award Agreement.

DEFERRED PAYMENTS. ----------------- The Committee, in its discretion, may permit a Participant to elect to defer receipt of all or any part of any cash or stock payment under the Plan, or the Committee may determine to defer receipt by some or all Participants, of all or part of any such payment. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of any such deferral, including the period of deferral, the manner of deferral, and the method for measuring appreciation on deferred amounts until their payout. 12. METHOD OF EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. ----------------------------- Subject to any applicable Award Agreement, any Option may be exercised by the Participant in whole or in part at such time or times, and the Participant may make payment of the Exercise Price in such form or forms, including, without limitation, payment by delivery of cash, Common Stock or other consideration (including, where permitted by law and the Committee, Awards) having a Fair Market Value on the exercise date equal to the total Exercise Price, or by any combination of cash, shares of Common Stock and other consideration, including exercise by means of a cashless exercise arrangement with a qualifying broker-dealer, as the Committee may specify in the applicable Award Agreement. 13. RIGHTS OF PARTICIPANTS. ---------------------- No Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by an Option until the date of issuance of a stock certificate for such Common Stock. Nothing contained herein or in any Award Agreement confers on any person any right to continue in the employ or service of the Holding Company or an Affiliate or interferes in any way with the right of the Holding Company or an Affiliate to terminate a Participant's services. 14 15 14. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY. -------------------------- A Participant may, with the consent of the Committee, designate a person or persons to receive, in the event of death, any Award to which the Participant would then be entitled. Such designation will be made upon forms supplied by and delivered to the Holding Company and may be revoked in writing. If a Participant fails effectively to designate a beneficiary, then the Participant's estate will be deemed to be the beneficiary. 15. DILUTION AND OTHER ADJUSTMENTS. ------------------------------ In the event of any change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend or split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, reorganization, combination or exchange of shares, or other similar corporate change, or other increase or decrease in such shares without receipt or payment of consideration by the Holding Company, or in the event an extraordinary capital distribution is made, the Committee may make such adjustments to previously granted Awards, to prevent dilution, diminution, or enlargement of the rights of the Participant, including any or all of the following: (a) adjustments in the aggregate number or kind of shares of Common Stock or other securities that may underlie future Awards under the Plan; (b) adjustments in the aggregate number or kind of shares of Common Stock or other securities underlying Awards already made under the Plan; (c) adjustments in the Exercise Price of outstanding Incentive and/or Non-statutory Stock Options, or any Limited Rights attached to such Options. No such adjustments may, however, materially change the value of benefits available to a Participant under a previously granted Award. All Awards under this Plan shall be binding upon any successors or assigns of the Holding Company. 16. TAX WITHHOLDING. --------------- (a) Whenever under this Plan, cash or shares of Common Stock are to be delivered upon exercise or payment of an Award or any other event with respect to rights and benefits hereunder, the Committee shall be entitled to require as a condition of delivery (i) that the Participant remit an amount sufficient to satisfy all federal, state, and local withholding tax requirements related thereto, (ii) that the withholding of such sums come from compensation otherwise due to the Participant or from any shares of Common Stock due to the Participant under this Plan or (iii) any combination of the foregoing provided, however, that no amount shall be withheld from any cash payment or shares of Common Stock relating to an Award which was transferred by the Participant in accordance with this Plan. 15 16 (b) If any disqualifying disposition described in Section 7(k) is made with respect to shares of Common Stock acquired under an Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to this Plan, or any transfer described in Section 6(c) is made, or any election described in Section 17 is made, then the person making such disqualifying disposition, transfer, or election shall remit to the Holding Company or its Affiliates an amount sufficient to satisfy all federal, state, and local withholding taxes thereby incurred; provided that, in lieu of or in addition to the foregoing, the Holding Company or its Affiliates shall have the right to withhold such sums from compensation otherwise due to the Participant, or, except in the case of any transfer pursuant to Section 6(c), from any shares of Common Stock due to the Participant under this Plan. 17. NOTIFICATION UNDER SECTION 83(b). -------------------------------- The Committee may, on the Date of Grant or any later date, prohibit a Participant from making the election described below. If the Committee has not prohibited such Participant from making such election, and the Participant shall, in connection with the exercise of any Option, or the grant of any Stock Award, make the election permitted under Section 83(b) of the Code (i.e., an election to include in such Participant's gross income in the year of transfer the amounts specified in Section 83(b) of the Code), such Participant shall notify the Committee of such election within 10 days of filing notice of the election with the Internal Revenue Service, in addition to any filing and notification required pursuant to regulations issued under the authority of Section 83(b) of the Code. 18. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN AND AWARDS. -------------------------------- (a) Except as provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 18, the Board of Directors may at any time, and from time to time, modify or amend the Plan in any respect, prospectively or retroactively; provided however, that provisions governing grants of Incentive Stock Options shall be submitted for shareholder approval to the extent required by such law, regulation or interpretation. Failure to ratify or approve amendments or modifications by shareholders shall be effective only as to the specific amendment or modification requiring such ratification. Other provisions of this Plan will remain in full force and effect. No such termination, modification or amendment may adversely affect the rights of a Participant under an outstanding Award without the written permission of such Participant. (b) Except as provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 18, the Committee may amend any Award Agreement, prospectively or retroactively; provided, however, that no such amendment shall adversely affect the rights of any Participant under an outstanding Award without the written consent of such Participant. (c) In no event shall the Board of Directors amend the Plan or shall the Committee amend an Award Agreement in any manner that has the effect of: 16 17 (i) Allowing any Option to be granted with an exercise price below the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant. (ii) Except as required under Section 15 hereof, allowing the exercise price of any Option previously granted under the Plan to be reduced subsequent to the Date of Award without receipt of stockholder approval. 19. EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN. ---------------------- The Plan became effective on July 24, 1998. All amendments are effective upon approval by the Board of Directors. 20.
