FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

In this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "Form-10-K"), the Company has
included certain "forward looking statements", either express or implied, which
concern anticipated future operations of the Company. It is management's desire
to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This statement is for the express purpose of
availing the Company of the protections of such safe harbor with respect to all
"forward looking statements" contained in this Form 10-K. The Company may have
used "forward looking statements" to describe certain of its future plans and
strategies including management's current expectations of the Company's future
financial results. Management's ability to predict results or the effect of
future plans and strategy involve certain risks, uncertainties, estimates, and
assumptions, which are subject to factors beyond the Company's control.
Consequently, the Company's actual results could differ materially from
management's expectations. Factors that could affect results include, but are
not limited to, interest rate trends, competition, the general economic climate
in Chester County, the mid-Atlantic region and the United States as a whole,
loan demand, loan delinquency rates and changes in asset quality, changes in
monetary and fiscal policies of the United States Government, changes in federal
and state regulation, changes in accounting policies and practices as may be
adopted by bank regulatory agencies and the Financial Accounting Standards Board
and other uncertainties described in the Company's filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"), including this Form 10-K. These
factors should be considered in evaluating the "forward looking statements", and
undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. The Company undertakes
no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether
written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on the Company's
behalf.

PART I.

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

GENERAL

Chester Valley Bancorp Inc. (the "Holding Company") was incorporated in the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in August 1989. The business of the Holding Company
and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") consists of the operations of
First Financial Bank ("First Financial" or the "Bank"), a Pennsylvania-chartered
commercial bank founded in 1922 as a savings association, and Philadelphia
Corporation for Investment Services ("PCIS"), a full-service investment advisory
and securities brokerage firm. Effective September 1, 2001, the Bank converted
to a Pennsylvania-chartered commercial bank from a Pennsylvania-chartered
savings association. As a consequence of such charter conversion, the Holding
Company became a bank holding company that has also been designated as a
financial holding company. Prior to such conversion, the Holding Company was a
unitary thrift holding company. The Bank provides a wide range of banking
services to individual and corporate customers through its nine full-service
branch offices located in Chester County, Pennsylvania. The Bank provides
residential real estate, commercial real estate, commercial and consumer lending
services, funding these activities primarily with retail and business deposits
and borrowings. PCIS is a registered broker/dealer in all 50 states and the
District of Columbia and it is also registered as an investment advisor with the
Commission. PCIS provides many additional services, including self-directed and
managed retirement accounts, safekeeping, daily sweep money market funds,
portfolio and estate valuations, life insurance and annuities, and margin
accounts, to individuals and smaller corporate accounts. PCIS' offices are
located in Wayne and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

References to the Company include its wholly owned subsidiaries, the Bank
and PCIS, unless the context of the reference indicates otherwise.

1

MARKET AREA AND COMPETITION

The Bank's primary market area includes Chester County and sections of the
four contiguous counties (Delaware, Montgomery, Berks, and Lancaster) in
Pennsylvania. Chester County, in which all of the Bank's offices are located,
continues to grow in terms of economic development and population growth. The
segment of the market served by the Company from a business perspective is
primarily industrially oriented and demographically is comprised of middle and
upper income households.

Customer deposits with First Financial are insured to the maximum extent
provided by law by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") through
the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"). The Bank is subject to
examination and comprehensive regulation by the FDIC and the Pennsylvania
Department of Banking ("Department"). Prior to the Bank's conversion to a
commercial bank, it was also subject to regulation and examination by the Office
of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"). It is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank
("FHLB") of Pittsburgh ("FHLBP"), which is one of the 12 regional banks
comprising the FHLB System. The Bank is further subject to regulations of the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve Board")
governing reserves required to be maintained against deposits and certain other
matters. The Holding Company, as a registered bank holding company, is subject
to examination and regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

COMPETITION

First Financial encounters strong competition both in the attraction of
deposits and in the making of real estate and other loans. Its most direct
competition for deposits has historically come from commercial banks, savings
associations, savings banks and credit unions conducting business in its primary
market area. The Bank also encounters competition for deposits from money market
and other mutual funds, as well as corporate and government securities and
insurance companies. The principal methods used by the Bank to attract deposit
accounts include offering a variety of services and interest rates and providing
convenient office locations and expanded banking hours. The Bank's competition
for real estate and other loans comes principally from other savings
institutions, credit unions, commercial banks, mortgage banking companies,
insurance companies, and other lenders. First Financial competes successfully
for loans through interest rates, loan maturities, loan fees and the quality of
service extended to borrowers and real estate brokers.

PCIS is engaged in securities brokerage and asset management activities all
of which are extremely competitive businesses. Competitors include all of the
member organizations of the New York Stock Exchange and other registered
securities exchanges, all members of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD"), commercial banks and savings associations, insurance
companies, investment companies, and financial consultants. PCIS competes
effectively against other firms in its brokerage and asset management services
because of its quality service, its excellent reputation, the results produced
and its competitive pricing.

EMPLOYEES

The Company had 139 full-time employees and 30 part-time employees as of
June 30, 2002. None of these employees are represented by a collective
bargaining agent and the Company believes that it enjoys good relations with its
personnel.

==========================================

Contractual principal repayments of loans do not necessarily reflect the
actual term of the Company's loan portfolio. The average life of mortgage loans
is substantially less than their contractual terms because of loan prepayments
and because of enforcement of due-on-sale clauses, which give the Company the
right to declare a loan immediately due and payable in the event, among other
things, that the borrower sells the real property subject to the mortgage and
the loan is not repaid. The average life of mortgage loans tends to increase,
however, when current mortgage loan rates substantially exceed rates on existing
mortgage loans and, conversely, decrease when rates on existing mortgage loans
substantially exceed current mortgage loan rates.

ORIGINATION, PURCHASE AND SALE OF LOANS

Commercial, multi-family residential real estate and consumer loans are
originated directly by the Bank through salaried loan officers. Salaried
employees originated single-family residential real estate loans during part of
fiscal 2002 but starting in the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the Bank stopped
originating these loans in house and began using a third party to handle all
originations, processing and sales of single-family residential real estate
loans. All of the residential real estate loans originated by the Bank using the
third party are immediately sold and the Bank recognizes a gain or loss on the
sale.

Prior to changing its method of origination single-family residential loans
in 2002, the Bank had periodically identified certain loans as held for sale at
the time of origination. These loans consist primarily of fixed-rate,
single-family residential mortgage loans. See Loans Held for Sale within Note -
1 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

LOAN PRODUCTS

The Bank offers a broad array of loan products with competitive terms and
conditions to both individuals and to businesses. In prior years, loan activity
has been primarily focused on the origination of mortgage loans collateralized
by single-family residential properties. However, in recent years, the Bank has
substantially expanded its involvement in commercial real estate lending as well
as commercial business lending as part of its strategic shift, which shift
culminated in the Bank's conversion to a commercial bank in September 2001. As a
result of the changing composition of the Bank's loan portfolio, loans secured
by single-family properties have declined as a percentage of the portfolio from
53.3% at June 30, 1998 to 32.4% at June 30, 2002. Commercial real estate and
commercial business loans in the aggregate increased from 18.0% to 35.9% at such
dates, respectively. The Bank has also continued to remain an active
construction and land acquisition loan originator, with such loans accounting
for 12.3% of the Bank's total loan portfolio as of June 30, 2002. In order to
meet the wide-ranging needs of its customers, the Bank has also marketed
aggressively a variety of consumer loans, including home equity loans and lines
of credit.

The Bank originates residential real estate loans secured by properties
located primarily in southeastern Pennsylvania. These loans are generally to
first time homebuyers and are both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loans with
amortization periods up to 30 years.

The Bank provides a wide range of commercial lending products. These
products include commercial and multi-family real estate construction,
residential development and land acquisition loans and commercial business
loans. Commercial real estate loans normally are secured by properties located
in Chester County or the four counties contiguous to it. The substantial
majority of such loans bear adjustable interest rates with amortization terms of
20 years or less.

Commercial business loans are generally made to small and medium sized
companies located in the Bank's primary market area. Although the Bank makes
both secured and unsecured loans, the majority of these loans are on a secured
basis. New commercial business loans are typically secured by accounts
receivable, inventory, equipment, and/or general corporate assets of the
borrowers. Commercial business loans are originated with both fixed and
adjustable rates with the adjustable interest rates being prime-based. These
loans typically are originated for terms ranging from one to five years.

The Bank's consumer loans are primarily loans to individuals originated
through its branch network. The majority of its originations are home equity
credit lines secured by a second mortgage on the primary residence of the
borrower. These lines of credit generally have a prime-based interest rate. The

5

Bank also originates home equity loans that bear fixed interest rates and
generally have terms of 15 years or less. Home equity loans and lines of credits
aggregated $61.7 million at June 30, 2002.

REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS AND UNDERWRITING POLICIES

Under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of
1989 ("FIRREA") and pursuant to the parity provisions of the Pennsylvania
Banking Code of 1965 ("Banking Code"), the aggregate loans that the Company may
make to any borrower and its affiliates is limited to 15% of unimpaired capital
for unsecured loans and 25% of capital for loans secured by readily marketable
collateral. At June 30, 2002, pursuant to such provisions, the Bank was
permitted to extend credit to any one borrower totaling $8.27 million. At June
30, 2002, the Bank's largest loan or group of loans to one borrower, including
related entities, aggregated $5.87 million, and is in conformity with the
current loans to one borrower regulations described above.

The Bank is currently permitted to lend up to 100% of the appraised value
of the real property securing a loan; however, if the amount of a residential
loan originated or refinanced exceeds 90% of the appraised value, the Bank is
required by federal regulations, the Bank Code and Department regulations to
obtain private mortgage insurance on the portion of the principal amount of the
loan that exceeds 80% of the appraised value of the security property. Pursuant
to underwriting guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors, private mortgage
insurance must be obtained on all residential loans whose loan-to-value ratios
exceed 80%. The Bank will generally lend up to 97% of the appraised value of
one-to four-family owner-occupied residential dwellings when the required
private mortgage insurance is obtained. The Bank generally originates loans of
up to 75% of the appraised value of the properties securing its commercial real
estate and commercial business loans and 75% of the appraised value upon
completion or sale price, whichever is lower, for construction loans. With
respect to construction loans for owner-occupied properties made in connection
with the providing of the permanent financing, the Bank will lend up to 90% of
the appraised value when the required private mortgage insurance is obtained.

LOAN FEE AND SERVICING INCOME

In addition to interest earned on loans, the Bank receives income through
servicing of loans and fees in connection with loan originations, loan
modifications, late payments, prepayments, repayments and changes of property
ownership and for miscellaneous services related to its loans. Income from these
activities varies from period to period with the volume and type of loans made.
At June 30, 2002, the Bank was servicing $23.7 million of loans for others,
substantially all of which were whole loans sold by the Bank to the FHLMC.

Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are
deferred and amortized over the life of the related loans as an adjustment to
the yield of such related loans. However, in the event the related loan is sold
or repaid prior to maturity, any deferred loan fees or costs remaining with
respect to such loan are taken into income.

NON-PERFORMING LOANS AND REAL ESTATE OWNED

If the delinquency on a mortgage loan exceeds 90 days and is not cured
through the Bank's normal collection procedures, or an acceptable arrangement is
not worked out with the borrower, the Company will institute measures to remedy
the default, including commencing a foreclosure action or, in special
circumstances, accepting from the mortgagor a voluntary deed of the secured
property in lieu of foreclosure. However, under Pennsylvania law, a lender is
prohibited from accelerating the maturity of a residential mortgage loan,
commencing any legal action (including foreclosure proceedings) to collect on

6

such loan, or taking possession of any loan collateral until the lender has
first provided the delinquent borrower with at least 30 days prior written
notice specifying the nature of the delinquency and the borrower's right to
correct such delinquency. This provision of Pennsylvania law, as well as others,
may delay for several months the Bank's ability to foreclose upon residential
loans secured by real estate located in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. In
addition, the uniform FNMA/FHLMC lending documents used by the Bank, as well as
most other residential lenders in Pennsylvania, require notice and a right to
cure similar to that provided under Pennsylvania law.

Non-accrual loans are loans on which the accrual of interest ceases
when the collection of principal or interest payments is determined to be
doubtful by management. It is the policy of the Company to discontinue the
accrual of interest when principal or interest payments are delinquent 90 days
or more (unless the loan principal and interest are determined by management to
be fully secured and in the process of collection), or earlier, if the financial
condition of the borrower raises significant concern with regard to the ability
of the borrower to service the debt in accordance with the current loan term.
Interest income is not accrued until the financial condition and payment record
of the borrower once again demonstrate the ability to service the debt. When a
loan is placed on non-accrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is
deducted from interest income.

If foreclosure is effected, and the Bank acquires the real estate, it is
included in the Company's real estate owned account until it is sold. When
property is acquired, it is recorded at the lower of carrying value or fair
value less disposal cost at the date of acquisition and any write-down resulting
therefrom is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Interest accrual ceases
on the date of acquisition and all costs incurred in maintaining the property
from that date forward are expensed. Costs incurred for the improvement or
development of such property are capitalized to the extent they do not exceed
the property's fair value. No loss reserves are maintained on REO and future
write-downs for cost beyond the fair value are expensed.

For purposes of applying the measurement criteria for impaired loans, the
Company excludes large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans, primarily
consisting of residential real estate loans and consumer loans as well as
commercial loans with balances of less than $100,000. For applicable loans, the
Company evaluates the need for impairment recognition when a loan becomes
non-accrual or earlier if, based on management's assessment of the relevant
facts and circumstances, it is probable that the Company will be unable to
collect all proceeds due according to the contractual terms of the loan
agreement. At June 30, 2002, the Company did not have any impaired loans. The
Company's policy for the recognition of interest income on impaired loans is the
same as for non-accrual loans discussed above. Impaired loans or a portion
thereof are charged off when the Company determines that foreclosure is probable
and the fair value of the collateral is less than the recorded investment of the
impaired loan.

The following table sets forth information regarding non-accrual loans and
REO held by the Company at the dates indicated. The Company did not have, at any
of the dates presented any (i) loans which are 90 days or more delinquent but on
which interest is being accrued or (ii) loans which were classified as
restructured troubled debt.

$942,000 at June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively. If these non-performing
loans had been current in accordance with their original terms and had been
outstanding throughout the respective periods, the gross amount of interest
income for fiscal 2002, 2001, and 2000 that would have been recorded for these
loans would have been $194,800, $159,900, and $82,000, respectively. Interest
income on these non-performing loans included in income for fiscal 2002, 2001,
and 2000 amounted to $113,800, $22,500, and $24,000, respectively.

ALLOWANCES FOR LOSSES ON LOANS AND CLASSIFIED LOANS

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that represents
management's best estimate of known and inherent losses, which are probable and
reasonably determinable based upon an evaluation of the loan portfolio.
Homogeneous portfolios of loans, which include residential mortgage, home equity
and other consumer loans, are evaluated as a group. Commercial business,
commercial mortgage and construction loans are evaluated individually. Specific
portions of the allowance are developed by analyzing individual loans for
adequacy of collateral, cash flow and other risks which may be unique to that
particular loan. General portions of the allowance are developed by grading
individual loans in the commercial and construction portfolios and applying loss
factors by grade. The general portion of the allowance also includes loss
factors applied to the homogeneous portfolios as a group. The loss factors
applied to graded loans were developed based on the Company's loss history for
loans with similar attributes as well as input from the Company's primary
banking regulators. Loss factors are applied to homogeneous loans based upon
prior loss experience of the portfolio, delinquency trends and the volume of
non-performing loans. Although management believes it has used the best
information available to it in making such determinations, and that the present
allowance for loan losses is adequate, future adjustments to the allowance may
be necessary, and net income may be adversely affected if circumstances differ
substantially from the assumptions used in determining the level of the
allowance.

8

In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their
examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for losses on
loans. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the
allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the
time of their examination. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan
losses, which is charged to operations. Loan losses, other than those incurred
on loans held for sale, are charged directly against the allowance and
recoveries on previously charged-off loans are added to the allowance.

For purposes of applying the measurement criteria for impaired loans, the
Company excludes large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, primarily
consisting of residential real estate loans and consumer loans as well as
commercial business loans with balances of less than $100,000. For applicable
loans, the Company evaluates the need for impairment recognition when a loan
becomes non-accrual or earlier if, based on management's assessment of the
relevant facts and circumstances, it is probable that the Company will be unable
to collect all proceeds under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. At
and during the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, the recorded investment
in impaired loans was not significant. The Company's policy for the recognition
of interest income on impaired loans is the same as for non-accrual loans. A
portion of an impaired loan is charged off when the Company determines that
foreclosure is probable and the fair value of the collateral is less than the
recorded investment of the impaired loan.

At June 30, 2002, the Bank's allowance for loan losses was $4.59 million or
1.26% of total net loans receivable and 486.0% of total non-performing loans
compared to $4.26 million or 1.23% of net loans receivable and 363.8% of total
non-performing loans at June 30, 2001. The following table summarizes activity
in the Company's allowance for loan losses during the periods indicated.

The Company monitors the quality of its loans on a regular basis and
classifies them under a classification system that has three categories: (i)
substandard, (ii) doubtful and (iii) loss. A loan may fall within more than one
category and a portion of the asset may remain unclassified. The Company is
required to review the classification of its loans on a regular basis. In
addition, in connection with the examinations of First Financial by the FDIC and
the Department, the examiners have the authority to identify problem loan and,
if appropriate, classify them and/or require adjustments to the carrying value
of such assets.

Loans classified substandard are considered inadequately protected by the
current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral
pledged, if any. Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or
weaknesses. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured
institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Loans classified doubtful are considered to have all the weaknesses
inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the
weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently
existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loans classified loss are considered uncollectable and of such little value
that their continuance as assets is not warranted. After charging off a loan,
the Company continues its efforts to obtain a recovery on the loan.

At June 30, 2002, the Company's classified loans, which consisted of loans
classified as substandard or doubtful, totaled $6.24 million. Included in the
loans classified substandard at June 30, 2002 were all loans 90 days past due
and loans which are less than 90 days delinquent but inadequately protected by
the current paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, and
have a well-defined weakness that may jeopardize the liquidation of the debt.

The loans designated as special mention by the Company amounted to
$3.88 million at June 30, 2002. Although special mention loans are not
considered or classified as substandard, doubtful or loss, they do have a
potential weakness which may, if not corrected, result in increased risk of loss
at some future date.

SECURITIES ACTIVITIES

Historically, interest and dividends on securities have provided the
Company with a significant source of revenue. At June 30, 2002, the Company's
securities portfolio and interest-bearing deposits aggregated $171.75 million or
30.3% of its total assets.

The Company divides its securities portfolio into three segments: (a) held
to maturity; (b) available for sale; and (c) trading. Securities in the held to
maturity category are accounted for at amortized cost. Trading securities are
accounted for at quoted market prices with changes in market values being
recorded as gain or loss in the income statement. All other securities are
included in the available for sale category and are accounted for at fair value
with unrealized gains or losses, net of taxes, being reflected as adjustments to
equity. At June 30, 2002, the Company had a net unrealized loss on securities
available for sale, net of taxes, of $649,000. The following table sets forth
the Company's securities portfolio and interest-earning deposits at carrying
value at the dates indicated.

(1) During the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the Bank discontinued the use of
its trading account.

(2) The income from municipal notes and bonds is generally non-taxable for
federal and state purposes. The $7.9 million or 18.5% decrease in municipal
notes and bonds in fiscal 2001 is primarily the result of the sale of $4.1
million of bonds in January 2001 and the redemption of $2.6 million of
bonds in May 2001.

(3) Includes agency-backed collateralized mortgage obligations and student loan
securities.

The contractual maturity or repricing characteristics of the Company's
investment portfolio is considerably more interest rate sensitive than that of
its loan portfolio. Consequently, the investment portfolio provides a
significant source of liquidity and protection against interest rate risk. The
weighted average term to maturity or repricing of the Company's investment
securities held to maturity was 13.2 years at June 30, 2002.

Investments include three Municipal Authority Revenue Bond investments that
had an aggregate balance of $7.1 million at June 30, 2002, after a write-down on
two of the bonds totaling $955,000. After the write-down, two of the bonds have
a carrying value of $5.6 million and both of these bonds involve buildings and
related property that are leased to various agencies of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania under long term lease arrangements with renewal options. Of the
total balance of $5.6 million, $865 thousand are interest bearing bonds and the
remainder of $4.7 million are zero coupon bonds with maturities extending up to
June 2034.

The third classified bond has a balance, after write-down, of $1.5 million,
an interest rate of 6% and matures in June 2019. This bond involves low-income
scattered housing in Chester County under a Housing and Urban Development
Program. The Office of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has indicated that it
will provide funds to build additional housing which would be donated to this
bond issue and, when sold, would reduce the losses incurred on the bonds.

12

These classified investments are closely monitored and fairly stated at
June 30, 2002 based on available information. There can be no assurance that
further subsequent adverse or positive developments may occur; in which case,
additional adjustments to these investments may be forthcoming.

any one issuer (excluding U.S. Government and federal agencies) did not exceed
10% of the Company's stockholders' equity.

SOURCES OF FUNDS

GENERAL

Deposits obtained through branch offices have traditionally been the
principal source of the Company's funds for use in lending and for other general
business purposes. The Company also derives funds from amortization and
prepayments of outstanding loans and investments and sales of loans. From time
to time, the Company also may borrow funds from the FHLBP and other sources.
Borrowings may be used on a short-term basis to compensate for seasonal or other
reductions in deposits or other inflows at less than projected levels, as well
as on a longer term basis to support expanded lending and investment activities.

13

DEPOSITS

The Company obtains deposits primarily from residents of Chester County,
and to a lesser extent Berks, Delaware, Lancaster and Montgomery Counties,
Pennsylvania. Currently, the principal methods used by First Financial to
attract deposit accounts include the offering of services and a wide variety of
accounts, competitive interest rates, and convenient office locations and
service hours. Other than during times of inverse or flat yield curves, the Bank
has adopted a pricing program for its certificate accounts which provides for
higher rates of interest on its longer term certificates in order to encourage
depositors to invest in certificates with longer maturities, thus reducing the
interest rate sensitivity of the Company's deposit portfolio. First Financial
also offers a tiered money market account that pays higher interest on higher
balances so as to maintain a relatively stable core of deposits even when its
certificate accounts mature.

First Financial's current deposit products include non-interest-bearing
accounts, passbook/statement savings accounts, NOW checking accounts, money
market deposit accounts, certificates of deposit ranging in terms from 30 days
to seven years and certificates of deposit in denominations of $100,000 or more
("jumbo certificates"). Included among these deposit products are individual
retirement account certificates ("IRA certificates") and Keogh accounts.

The following table shows the balances of the Company's deposits as of the

The greater variety of deposit accounts offered by First Financial has
increased its ability to retain deposits and has allowed it to be more
competitive in obtaining new funds, although the threat of disintermediation
(the flow of funds away from savings institutions into direct investment
vehicles such as government and corporate securities) still exists. However,
these types of accounts have been and continue to be more costly than
traditional accounts. In addition, First Financial has become much more
susceptible to short-term fluctuations in deposit flows, as customers have
become more rate conscious and willing to move funds into higher-yielding
accounts. Thus, both the ability of First Financial to attract and maintain
deposits as well as its cost of funds have been, and will continue to be,
affected significantly by economic market conditions.

First Financial attempts to control the flow of deposits by pricing its
accounts to remain generally competitive with other financial institutions in
its primary market area, but does not necessarily seek to match the highest
rates paid by competing institutions.

First Financial's deposits are obtained primarily from persons who are
residents of Pennsylvania and, to a much lesser degree, from governmental
entities. First Financial does not advertise for deposits outside of
Pennsylvania or accept brokered deposits, and management believes that at June
30, 2002, an insignificant amount of First Financial's deposits were held by
non-residents of Pennsylvania.

BORROWINGS

First Financial may obtain advances from the FHLBP upon the security of the
common stock it owns in that bank and certain of its residential mortgage and
other loans, provided certain standards related to credit worthiness have been
met. See "Regulation - Regulation of the Bank - 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. FHLBP advances are
generally available to meet seasonal and other withdrawals of deposit accounts
and to expand lending and investment activities, as well as to aid the efforts
of members to establish better asset and liability management through the
extension of maturities of liabilities. At June 30, 2002 the Company had $102.45
million in FHLBP advances outstanding. In addition to its ability to obtain
advances from the FHLBP under several different credit programs, the Company has
established a line of credit with the FHLBP, in an amount not to exceed 10% of
the Company's maximum borrowing capacity, which credit line at June 30, 2002 was
$16.39 million, and is subject to certain conditions, including the holding of a
predetermined amount of FHLBP stock as collateral. At June 30, 2002, there was
no balance outstanding on the line of credit.

YIELDS EARNED AND RATES PAID

The largest components of the Company's total income and total expense are
interest income and interest expense. As a result, the Company's earnings are
dependent primarily upon net interest income, which is determined by the
Company's net interest rate spread (i.e., the difference between the yields
earned on interest-earning assets and the rates paid on interest-bearing
liabilities) and the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities.

The following table presents certain information regarding changes in
interest income and interest expense of the Company for the periods indicated.
Interest income and the annual rate are calculated on a taxable equivalent basis
using the Federal marginal income tax rate of 34% adjusted for the 20% interest
expense disallowance (27.2%). For each category of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided with respect to changes
attributable to (1) changes in volume (change in volume multiplied by old rate),
(2) changes in rate (change in rate multiplied by old volume) and (3) changes in
rate/volume (change in rate multiplied by change in volume). The changes in
rate/volume (3) are allocated to the change in volume variance and the change in
the rate variance on a pro rated basis.

("D & S Service"), which has participated in the development for sale of
residential properties, in particular condominium conversions and also the
development of commercial properties in order for the Bank to expand its
facilities to accommodate its growth. All of such projects have either been
located in or within close proximity to the Bank's primary market area. D & S
Service operates two wholly owned subsidiaries: Wildman Projects and D & F
Projects, Inc. As of June 30, 2002, the Bank had invested $1.90 million in D & S
Service and its wholly owned subsidiaries.

REGULATION

Set forth below is a brief description of certain laws and regulations
which relate to the regulation of the Company and the Bank in effect as of the
date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The description of these laws and
regulations, as well as descriptions of laws and regulations contained elsewhere
herein, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by
reference to applicable laws and regulations.

REGULATION OF THE COMPANY

GENERAL

The Holding Company, as a bank holding company as a result of the
conversion effective September 1, 2001 of the Bank from a federally-chartered
thrift to a Pennsylvania-chartered commercial bank, is subject to regulation and
supervision by the Federal Reserve Board. Under the Bank Holding Company Act
("BHCA"), a bank holding company is required to file annually with the Federal
Reserve Board a report of its operations and, with its subsidiaries, is subject
to examination by the Federal Reserve Board.

19

ACTIVITIES AND OTHER LIMITATIONS

The BHCA generally prohibits a bank holding company from acquiring direct
or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any
bank, or increasing such ownership or control of any bank, without prior
approval of the Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve Board generally may
approve an application by a bank holding company that is adequately capitalized
and adequately managed to acquire control of, or to acquire all or substantially
all of the assets of, a bank located in a state other than the home state of
such bank holding company, without regard to whether such transaction is
prohibited under the law of any state, provided, however, that the Federal
Reserve Board may not approve any such application that would have the effect of
permitting an out-of-state bank holding company to acquire a bank in a host
state that has not been in existence for any minimum period of time, not to
exceed five years, specified in the statutory law of the host state.

The BHCA also generally prohibits a bank holding company, with certain
exceptions, from acquiring more than 5% of the voting shares of any company that
is not a bank and from engaging in any business other than banking or managing
or controlling banks. Under the BHCA, the Federal Reserve Board is authorized to
approve the ownership of shares by a bank holding company in any company the
activities of which the Federal Reserve Board had determined, by regulation or
by order, to be so closely related to banking or to managing or controlling
banks as to be a proper incident thereto as of November 11, 2000, the day before
the date of enactment of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, discussed below. In making
such determinations, the Federal Reserve Board is required to weigh the expected
benefit to the public, such as greater convenience, increased competition or
gains in efficiency, against the possible adverse effects, such as undue
concentration of resources, decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of
interest or unsound banking practices.

CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The Federal Reserve Board has issued risk-based and leverage capital
guidelines applicable to bank holding companies. In addition, the Federal
Reserve Board may from time to time require that a bank holding company maintain
capital above the minimum levels, whether because of its financial condition or
actual or anticipated growth. The Federal Reserve Board's risk-based guidelines
define a three-tier capital framework. Tier 1 capital consists of common and
qualifying preferred shareholders' equity, less certain intangibles and other
adjustments. Tier 2 capital consists of preferred stock not qualifying as Tier 1
capital, subordinated and other qualifying debt, and the allowance for credit
losses up to 1.25 percent of risk-weighted assets. Tier 3 capital includes
subordinated debt that is unsecured, fully paid, has an original maturity of a
least two years, is not redeemable before maturity without prior approval by the
Federal Reserve Board and includes a lock-in clause precluding payment of either
interest or principal if the payment would cause the issuing entity's risk-based
capital ratio to fall or remain below the required minimum. The sum of Tier 1
and Tier 2 capital less investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries represents
qualifying total capital, at least 50 percent of which must consist of Tier 1
capital. Risk-based capital ratios are calculated by dividing Tier 1 and total
capital by risk-weighted assets. Assets and off-balance sheet exposures are
assigned to one of four categories of risk-weights, based primarily on relative
credit risk. The minimum Tier 1 capital ratio is 4 percent and the minimum total
capital ratio is 8 percent. The leverage ratio is determined by dividing Tier 1
capital by adjusted average total assets. Although the stated minimum ratio is 3
percent, most banking organizations are required to maintain ratios of at least
100 to 200 basis points above 3 percent.

As of June 30, 2002, the Company's capital ratios exceeded applicable
requirements. See Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in
Item 8 hereof.

20

AFFILIATED INSTITUTIONS

Under Federal Reserve Board policy, the Holding Company is expected to act
as a source of financial strength to the Bank and to commit resources to support
the Bank in circumstances when it might not do so absent such policy. The
Federal Reserve Board takes the position that in implementing this policy it may
require bank holding companies to provide such support when the holding company
otherwise would not consider itself able to do so.

A bank holding company is a legal entity separate and distinct from its
subsidiary bank. Normally, the major source of a holding company's revenue is
dividends a holding company receives from its subsidiary bank. The right of a
bank holding company to participate as a stockholder in any distribution of
assets of its subsidiary bank upon its liquidation or reorganization or
otherwise is subject to the prior claims of creditors of such subsidiary bank.
The subsidiary bank is subject to claims by creditors for long-term and
short-term debt obligations, including substantial obligations for federal funds
purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements, as well as deposit
liabilities. Under FIRREA, in the event of a loss suffered by the FDIC in
connection with a banking subsidiary of a bank holding company (whether due to a
default or the provision of FDIC assistance), other banking subsidiaries of the
holding company could be assessed for such loss.

Federal laws limit the transfer of funds by a subsidiary bank to its
holding company in the form of loans or extensions of credit, investments or
purchases of assets. Transfers of this kind are limited to 10% of a bank's
capital and surplus with respect to each affiliate and to 20% in the aggregate,
and are also subject to certain collateral requirements. These transactions, as
well as other transactions between a subsidiary bank and its holding company,
also must be on terms substantially the same as, or at least as favorable as,
those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated
companies or, in the absence of comparable transactions, on terms or under
circumstances, including credit standards, that would be offered to, or would
apply to, non-affiliated companies.

FINANCIAL MODERNIZATION

On November 12, 1999, President Clinton signed into law the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which permits bank holding companies to become financial
holding companies and thereby affiliate with securities firms and insurance
companies and engage in other activities that are financial in nature.

A bank holding company may become a financial holding company if its
subsidiary bank is "well capitalized" and "well managed," as defined, and has at
least a satisfactory rating under the Community Reinvestment Act by filing a
declaration that the bank holding company wishes to become a financial holding
company. No regulatory approval is required for a financial holding company to
acquire a company, other than a bank or savings association, engaged in
activities that are financial in nature or incidental to activities that are
financial in nature, as determined by the Federal Reserve Board.

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act defines "financial in nature" to include
securities underwriting, dealing and market making; sponsoring mutual funds and
investment companies; insurance underwriting and agency; merchant banking
activities; and activities that the Federal Reserve Board has determined to be
closely related to banking. Subsidiary banks of a financial holding company must
continue to be well capitalized and well managed in order to continue to engage
in activities that are financial in nature without regulatory actions or
restrictions, which could include divestiture of the financial in nature
subsidiary or subsidiaries. In addition, a financial holding company or a bank
may not acquire a company that is engaged in activities that are financial in
nature unless each of the subsidiary banks of the financial holding company or
the bank has a Community Reinvestment Act rating of satisfactory or better.

21

In connection with the Holding Company's application to become a bank
holding company as a result of the conversion of the Bank to a
Pennsylvania-chartered commercial bank, the Company elected to become a
financial holding company.

STATE REGULATION

The Company is registered as a Pennsylvania financial institution holding
company under Pennsylvania law and as such is subject to regulation and
examination by the Superintendent of Banking of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania.

REGULATION OF PCIS

GENERAL

In the United States, a number of federal regulatory agencies are charged
with safeguarding the integrity of the securities and other financial markets
and with protecting the interest of customers participating in those markets.
The SEC is the federal agency that is primarily responsible for the regulation
of broker-dealers and investment advisers doing business in the United States,
and the Federal Reserve Board promulgates regulations applicable to securities
credit transactions involving broker-dealers and certain other institutions in
the Unites States. Much of the regulation of broker-dealers, however, has been
delegated to self-regulatory organizations ("SROs"), principally the NASD (and
its subsidiaries NASD Regulation, Inc. and the Nasdaq Stock Market), and the
national securities exchanges. These SROs and exchanges adopt rules (which are
subject to approval by the SEC) that govern the industry, monitor daily activity
and conduct periodic examinations of member broker-dealers. While PCIS is not a
member of the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE"), PCIS' business is impacted
by the NYSE rules.

PCIS is also subject to the USA Patriot Act adopted on November 1999. (See
"Recent Legislation") The USA Patriot Act requires financial institutions to
adopt and implement policies and procedures designed to prevent and defeat money
laundering. PCIS believes it is in compliance with the USA Patriot Act.

Securities firms are also subject to regulation by state securities
commissions in the states in which they are required to be registered. PCIS is
registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC and in all 50 states and in the
District of Columbia, and is a member of, and subject to regulation by, a number
of SROs, including the NASD.

As a result of federal and state registration and SRO memberships, PCIS is
subject to overlapping schemes of regulation which cover all aspects of its
securities business. Such regulations cover matters including capital
requirements, uses and safe-keeping of clients' funds, conduct of directors,
officers and employees, record-keeping and reporting requirements, supervisory
and organizational procedures intended to assure compliance with securities laws
and to prevent improper trading on material nonpublic information,
employee-related matters, including qualification and licensing of supervisory
and sales personnel, limitations on extensions of credit in securities
transactions, clearance and settlement procedures, requirements for the
registration, underwriting, sale and distribution of securities, and rules of
the SROs designed to promote high standards of commercial honor and just and
equitable principles of trade. A particular focus of the applicable regulations
concerns the relationship between broker-dealers and their customers. As a
result, the many aspects of the broker-dealer customer relationship are subject
to regulation including, in some instances, "suitability" determinations as to
certain customer transactions, limitations on the amounts that may be charged to
customers, timing of proprietary trading in relation to customers' trades and
disclosures to customers.

22

PCIS also is subject to "Risk Assessment Rules" imposed by the SEC which
require, among other things, that certain broker-dealers maintain and preserve
certain information, describe risk management policies and procedures and report
on the financial condition of certain affiliates whose financial and securities
activities are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the financial and
operational condition of the broker-dealers. Certain "Material Associated
Persons" (as defined in the Risk Assessment Rules) of the broker-dealers and the
activities conducted by such Material Associated Persons may also be subject to
regulation by the SEC.

PCIS is registered as an investment adviser with the SEC. As an investment
adviser registered with the SEC, it is subject to the requirements of the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and the SEC's regulations thereunder, as well as
certain state securities laws and regulations. Such requirements relate to,
among other things, limitations on the ability of an investment adviser to
charge performance-based or non-refundable fees to clients, record-keeping and
reporting requirements, disclosure requirements, limitations on principal
transactions between an adviser or its affiliates and advisory clients, as well
as general anti-fraud prohibitions. The state securities law requirements
applicable to registered investment advisers are in certain cases more
comprehensive than those imposed under the federal securities laws.

In the event of non-compliance with an applicable regulation, governmental
regulators and the NASD may institute administrative or judicial proceedings
that may result in censure, fine, civil penalties (including treble damages in
the case of insider trading violations), the issuance of cease-and-desist
orders, the deregistration or suspension of the non-compliant broker-dealer or
investment adviser, the suspension or disqualification of the broker-dealer's
officers or employees or other adverse consequences. The imposition of any such
penalties or orders on PCIS could have a material adverse effect on PCIS' (and
thus the Company's) operating results and financial condition.

NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

As a broker-dealer registered with the SEC and as a member firm of the
NASD, PCIS is subject to the capital requirements of the SEC and the NASD. These
capital requirements specify minimum levels of capital, computed in accordance
with regulatory requirements, that PCIS is required to maintain and also limit
the amount of leverage that each firm is able to obtain in its respective
business.

As of June 30, 2002 PCIS was required to maintain minimum net capital, in
accordance with SEC rules, of $250,000 and had total net capital of $1.25
million or $998 thousand in excess of the minimum amount required. PCIS is
required to maintain a net capital ratio, in accordance with SEC rules, not to
exceed 15 to 1. At June 30, 2002 PCIS' net capital ratio was .20 to 1.

A failure of a broker-dealer to maintain its minimum required net capital
or net capital ratio would require it to cease executing customer transactions
until it came back into compliance, and could cause it to lose its NASD
membership, its registration with the SEC or require its liquidation. Further,
the decline in a broker-dealer's net capital below certain "early warning
levels," even though above minimum net capital requirements, could cause
material adverse consequences to the broker-dealer.

23

PCIS is a member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC")
which is a non-profit corporation that was created by the United States Congress
under the Securities Protection Act of 1970. SIPC protects customers of member
broker-dealers against losses caused by the financial failure of the
broker-dealer but not against a change in the market value of securities in
customers' accounts at the broker-dealer. In the event of the inability of a
member broker-dealer to satisfy the claims of its customers in the event of its
failure, the SIPC's funds are available to satisfy the remaining claims up to
maximum of $500,000 per customer, including up to $100,000 on claims for cash.
In addition, PCIS' clearing broker carries private insurance which provides
similar coverage up to $25 million per customer.

REGULATION OF THE BANK

GENERAL

As a Pennsylvania-chartered commercial bank, the Bank is subject to
regulation and examination by the FDIC, which insures the deposits of the Bank
to the maximum extent permitted by law, certain requirements established by the
Federal Reserve Board and by the Pennsylvania Department of Banking. The federal
laws and regulations which are applicable to state-chartered banks regulate,
among other things, the scope of their business, their investments, their
reserves against deposits, the timing of the availability of deposited funds and
the nature and amount of and collateral for loans. Prior to the Bank's
conversion from a state-chartered savings association to a commercial bank, it
was subject also to regulation and examination by the Office of Thrift
Supervision ("OTS").

CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The Bank is subject to regulatory capital requirements of the FDIC which
are substantially comparable to the regulatory capital requirements of the
Federal Reserve Board applicable to bank holding companies such as the Holding
Company, as discussed above. At June 30, 2002, the Bank's regulatory capital
substantially exceeded applicable requirement. See Note 12 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements included in Item 8 hereof.

PROMPT CORRECTIVE ACTION

Section 38 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("FDIA") provides the
federal banking regulators with broad power to take "prompt corrective action"
to resolve the problems of undercapitalized institutions. The extent of the
regulators' powers depends on whether the institution in question is "well
capitalized," "adequately capitalized," "undercapitalized," "significantly
undercapitalized" or "critically undercapitalized." Under regulations adopted by
the federal banking regulators, an institution shall be deemed to be (i) "well
capitalized" if it has total risk-based capital ratio of 10.0% or more, has a
Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 6.0% or more, has a Tier I leverage capital
ratio of 5.0% or more and is not subject to specified requirements to meet and
maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure; (ii) "adequately
capitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of 8.0% or more, a Tier
I risk-based capital ratio of 4.0% or more a Tier I leverage capital ratio of
4.0% or more (3.0% under certain circumstances) and does not meet the definition
of "well capitalized"; (iii) "undercapitalized" if it has a total risk-based
capital ratio that is less than 8.0%, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio that is
less than 4.0% or a Tier I leverage capital ratio that is less than 4.0% (3.0%
under certain circumstances), (iv) "significantly undercapitalized" if it has a
total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 6.0%, a Tier I risk-based
capital ratio that is less than 3.0% or a Tier I leverage capital ratio that is
less than 3.0%, and (v) "critically undercapitalized" if it has a ratio of
tangible equity to total assets that is equal to or less than 2.0%. The
regulations also provide that a federal banking regulator may, after notice and
an opportunity for a hearing, reclassify a "well capitalized" institution as
"adequately capitalized" and may require an "adequately capitalized" institution
or an "undercapitalized" institution to comply with supervisory actions as if it
were in the next lower category if the institution is in an unsafe or unsound
condition or engaging in an unsafe or unsound practice. The federal banking
regulator may not, however, reclassify a "significantly undercapitalized"
institution as "critically undercapitalized."

24

At June 30, 2002, the Bank's capital levels qualified it as a "well
capitalized" institution under applicable laws and regulations.

FDIC INSURANCE PREMIUMS

The Bank is a member of the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF")
administered by the FDIC rather than the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") since it
was formerly a savings association.

As an FDIC-insured institution, the Bank is required to pay deposit
insurance premiums to the FDIC. Effective January 1, 1997, the assessment
schedule for both BIF and SAIF ranges from 0 basis points (subject to a $2,000
annual minimum) to 27 basis points of the balance of insured deposits. In
addition, both BIF-insured institutions and SAIF-insured institutions are
assessed amounts in order for a federally-chartered Finance Corporation to make
payments on it bonds.

BROKERED DEPOSITS

The Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("FDIA") restricts the use of brokered
deposits by certain depository institutions. Under the FDIA and applicable
regulations, (i) a "well capitalized insured depository institution" may solicit
and accept, renew or roll over any brokered deposit without restriction, (ii) an
"adequately capitalized insured depository institution" may not accept, renew or
roll over any brokered deposit unless it has applied for and been granted a
waiver of this prohibition by the FDIC and (iii) an "undercapitalized insured
depository institution" may not (s) accept, renew or roll over any brokered
deposit or (y) solicit deposits by offering an effective yield that exceeds by
more than 75 basis points the prevailing effective yields on insured deposits of
comparable maturity in such institution's normal market area or in the market
area in which such deposits are being solicited. The term "undercapitalized
insured depository institution" is defined to mean any insured depository
institution that fails to meet the minimum regulatory capital requirement
prescribed by its appropriate federal banking agency. The FDIC may, on a
case-by-case basis and upon application by an adequately capitalized insured
depository institution, waive the restriction on brokered deposits upon a
finding that the acceptance of brokered deposits does not constitute an unsafe
or unsound practice with respect to such institution. At June 30, 2002, the Bank
did not have any brokered deposits.

COMMUNITY INVESTMENT AND CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS

In connection with its lending activities, the Bank is subject to a variety
of federal laws designed to protect borrowers and promote lending to various
sectors of the economy and population. Included among these are the Federal Home
Mortgage Disclosure Act, Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, Truth-in-Lending
Act, Equal Credit Opportunity Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act and Community
Reinvestment Act ("CRA").

The CRA requires insured institutions to define the communities that they
serve, identify the credit needs of those communities and adopt and implement a
"Community Reinvestment Act Statement" pursuant to which they offer credit
products and take other actions that respond to the credit needs of the
community. The responsible federal banking regulator must conduct regular CRA
examinations of insured financial institutions and assign to them a CRA rating
of "outstanding," "satisfactory," "needs improvement" or "unsatisfactory." In
last CRA rating of the Bank dated February 22, 2000, the Bank was rated
"outstanding".

LIMITATIONS ON DIVIDENDS

The Holding Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from its
banking and other subsidiaries. The Holding Company's principal source of
revenue consists of dividends from its subsidiaries, including the Bank. The
payment of dividends by the Bank is subject to various regulatory requirements.

25

MISCELLANEOUS

The Bank is subject to certain restrictions on loans to the Holding Company
or its non-bank subsidiary, on investments in the stock or securities thereof,
on the taking of such stock or securities as collateral for loans to any
borrower, and on the issuance of a guarantee or letter of credit on behalf of
the Holding Company or its non-bank subsidiary. The Bank is subject to certain
restrictions on most types of transactions with the Holding Company or its
non-bank subsidiary, requiring that the terms of such transactions be
substantially equivalent to terms of similar transactions with non-affiliated
firms.

REGULATORY ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITY

The enforcement powers available to federal banking regulators is
substantial and includes, among other things, the ability to assess civil money
penalties, to issue cease-and-desist or removal orders and to initiate
injunctive actions against banking organizations and institution-affiliated
parties, as defined. In general, these enforcement actions may be initiated for
violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices. Other
actions or inactions may provide the basis for enforcement action, including
misleading or untimely reports filed with regulatory authorities.

FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK SYSTEM

The Bank is a member of the FHLBP, which is one of 12 regional FHLBs that
administers the home financing credit function of savings associations and
commercial banks. Each FHLB serves as a source of liquidity for its members
within its assigned region. It is funded primarily from proceeds derived from
the sale of consolidated obligations of the FHLB System. It makes loans to
members (i.e., advances) in accordance with policies and procedures established
by its Board of Directors. As of June 30, 2002, the Bank's advances from the
FHLBP amounted to $102.45 million.

As a member, the Bank is required to purchase and maintain stock in the
FHLBP in an amount equal to the greater of 1% of its aggregate unpaid
residential mortgage loans, home purchase contracts or similar obligations at
the beginning of each year or 5% of total advances. At June 30, 2002, the Bank
had $5.24 million in FHLB stock, which was in compliance with this requirement.

RECENT LEGISLATION

THE USA PATRIOT ACT

In response to the events of September 11, 2001, President George W. Bush
signed into law the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate
Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, or the USA
PATRIOT Act, on October 26, 2001. The USA PATRIOT Act gives the federal
government new powers to address terrorist threats through enhanced domestic
security measures, expanded surveillance powers, increased information sharing,
and broadened anti-money laundering requirements. By way of amendments to the
Bank Secrecy Act, Title III of the USA PATRIOT Act takes measures intended to
encourage information sharing among bank regulatory agencies and law enforcement
bodies. Further, certain provisions of Title III impose affirmative obligations
on a broad range of financial institutions, including banks, thrifts, brokers,
dealers, credit unions, money transfer agents and parties registered under the
Commodity Exchange Act. Among other requirements, Title III of the USA PATRIOT
Act imposes the following requirements with respect to financial institutions:

26

(a) Pursuant to Section 352, all financial institutions must establish
anti-money laundering programs that include, at minimum:

(1) internal policies, procedures, and controls,

(2) specific designation of an anti-money laundering compliance
officer,

(3) ongoing employee training programs, and

(4) an independent audit function to test the anti-money laundering
program. Rules promulgated under Section 352 were required to be
adopted by April 24, 2002.

(b) Section 326 authorizes the Secretary of the Department of Treasury, in
conjunction with other bank regulators, to issue regulations by
October 26, 2002 that provide for minimum standards with respect to
customer identification at the time new accounts are opened.

(c) Section 312 requires financial institutions that establish, maintain,
administer, or manage private banking accounts or correspondent
accounts in the United States for non-United States persons or their
representatives (including foreign individuals visiting the United
States) to establish appropriate, specific, and, where necessary,
enhanced due diligence policies, procedures, and controls designed to
detect and report money laundering. Rules promulgated under Section
312 were due by April 24, 2002, to be effective by July 23, 2002.

(d) Effective December 25, 2001, financial institutions are prohibited
from establishing, maintaining, administering or managing
correspondent accounts for foreign shell banks (foreign banks that do
not have a physical presence in any country), and will be subject to
certain recordkeeping obligations with respect to correspondent
accounts of foreign banks.

(e) Bank regulators are directed to consider a holding company's
effectiveness in combating money laundering when ruling on Federal
Reserve Act and Bank Merger Act applications.

SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002

On July 30, 2002, the President signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002 implementing legislative reforms intended to address corporate and
accounting fraud. In addition to the establishment of a new accounting oversight
board which will enforce auditing, quality control and independence standards
and will be funded by fees from all publicly traded companies, the bill
restricts provision of both auditing and consulting services by accounting
firms. To ensure auditor independence, any non-audit services being provided to
an audit client will require preapproval by the company's audit committee
members. In addition, the audit partners must be rotated. The bill requires
chief executive officers and chief financial officers, or their equivalent, to
certify to the accuracy of periodic reports filed with the SEC, subject to civil
and criminal penalties if they knowingly or willfully violate this certification
requirement. In addition, under the Act, counsel will be required to report
evidence of a material violation of the securities laws or a breach of fiduciary
duty by a company to its chief executive officer or its chief legal officer,
and, if such officer does not appropriately respond, to report such evidence to
the audit committee or other similar committee of the board of directors or the
board itself.

Longer prison terms will also be applied to corporate executives who
violate federal securities laws, the period during which certain types of suits
can be brought against a company or its officers has been extended, and bonuses
issued to top executives prior to restatement of a company's financial

27

statements are now subject to disgorgement if such restatement was due to
corporate misconduct. Executives are also prohibited from insider trading during
retirement plan "blackout" periods, and loans to company executives are
restricted. In addition, a provision directs that civil penalties levied by the
SEC as a result of any judicial or administrative action under the Act be
deposited to a fund for the benefit of harmed investors. The Federal Accounts
for Investor Restitution ("FAIR") provision also requires the SEC to develop
methods of improving collection rates. The legislation accelerates the time
frame for disclosures by public companies, as they must immediately disclose any
material changes in their financial condition or operations. Directors and
executive officers must also provide information for most changes in ownership
in a company's securities within two business days of the change.

The Act also increases the oversight of, and codifies certain requirements
relating to audit committees of public companies and how they interact with the
company's "registered public accounting firm" ("RPAF"). Audit Committee members
must be independent and are barred from accepting consulting, advisory or other
compensatory fees from the issuer. In addition, companies must disclose whether
at least one member of the committee is a "financial expert" (as such term will
be defined by the SEC) and if not, why not. Under the Act, a RPAF is prohibited
from performing statutorily mandated audit services for a company if such
company's chief executive officer, chief financial officer, comptroller, chief
accounting officer or any person serving in equivalent positions has been

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

The Company's results of operations depend primarily on its net interest
income, which is the difference between interest income on interest-earning
assets, which consists principally of loans and investment securities, and
interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, which consist of deposits and
borrowings. Net interest income is determined by the Company's interest rate
spread (the difference between the yields earned on its interest-earning assets
and the rates paid on its interest-bearing liabilities) and the relative amounts
of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

The Company's results of operations also are affected by the provision for
loan losses resulting from management's assessment of the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses; the level of its non-interest income, including
investment service fees, account service fees and related income and gains and
losses from the sales of loans and securities; the level of its non-interest
expense, including salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment
expense, data processing services, deposit insurance premiums, advertising,
other operating costs; and income tax expense.

The Bank is a community-oriented bank, which emphasizes customer service
and convenience. As part of this strategy, the Bank offers products and services
designed to meet the needs of its customers. The Company generally has sought to
achieve long-term financial growth and strength by increasing the amount and
stability of its net interest income and non-interest income and by maintaining
a high level of asset quality. In pursuit of these goals, the Company has
adopted a business strategy emphasizing growth in basic financial services. The
focus is on commercial and construction lending, commercial deposits and
treasury management, consumer deposits and loans and trust and investment
management.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of
operations are based on the consolidated financial statements of the Bank, which
are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Bank
to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities. The Bank evaluates estimates on an on-going basis, including
those related to the allowance for loan losses, non-accrual loans, other real
estate owned, other-than-temporary investment impairments, pension and
post-retirement benefits, the stock option plan, recourse liabilities and income
taxes. The Bank bases its estimates on historical experience and various other

32

factors and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different
assumptions or conditions.

The Bank believes the following critical accounting policies affect its
more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of its consolidated
financial statements: allowance for loan losses, income taxes, and
other-than-temporary investment security impairment. Each estimate is discussed
below. The financial impact of each estimate is discussed in the applicable
sections of Management's Discussion and Analysis.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that represents
management's best estimate of known and inherent losses, which are probable and
reasonably determinable based upon an evaluation of the loan portfolio.
Homogeneous portfolios of loans, which include residential mortgage, home equity
and other consumer loans, are evaluated as a group. Commercial business,
commercial mortgage and construction loans are evaluated individually. Specific
portions of the allowance are developed by analyzing individual loans for
adequacy of collateral, cash flow and other risks which may be unique to that
particular loan. General portions of the allowance are developed by grading
individual loans in the commercial and construction portfolios and applying loss
factors by grade. The general portion of the allowance also includes loss
factors applied to the homogeneous portfolios as a group. The loss factors
applied to graded loans were developed based on the Company's loss history for
loans with similar attributes as well as input from the Company's primary
banking regulators. Loss factors are applied to homogeneous loans based upon
prior loss experience of the portfolio delinquency trends and the volume of
non-performing loans. Although management believes it has used the best
information available to it in making such determinations, and that the present
allowance for loan losses is adequate, future adjustments to the allowance may
be necessary, and net income may be adversely affected if circumstances differ
substantially from the assumptions used in determining the level of the
allowance. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of
their examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for losses
on loans. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the
allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the
time of their examination. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan
losses, which is charged to operations. Loan losses, other than those incurred
on loans held for sale, are charged directly against the allowance and
recoveries on previously charged-off loans are added to the allowance.

For purposes of applying the measurement criteria for impaired loans, the
Company excludes large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, primarily
consisting of residential real estate loans and consumer loans as well as
commercial business loans with balances of less than $100,000. For applicable
loans, the Company evaluates the need for impairment recognition when a loan
becomes non-accrual or earlier if, based on management's assessment of the
relevant facts and circumstances, it is probable that the Company will be unable
to collect all proceeds under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. At
and during the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, the recorded investment
in impaired loans was not significant. The Company's policy for the recognition
of interest income on impaired loans is the same as for non-accrual loans. A
portion of an impaired loan is charged off when the Company determines that
foreclosure is probable and the fair value of the collateral is less than the
recorded investment of the impaired loan.

33

INCOME TAXES

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to difference between the financial statement carrying
amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax base, as
well as tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A
valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets when in the
judgment of management, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets
will not become available. Based on management's evaluation of the likelihood of
realization, no valuation allowance has been established. Because the judgment
about the level of future taxable income is dependent to a great extent on
matters that may, at least in part, be beyond the Bank's control, it is at least
reasonably possible that management's judgment about the need for a valuation
allowance for deferred taxes could change in the near term.

OTHER THAN TEMPORARY IMPAIRMENT OF INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Securities are evaluated periodically to determine whether a decline in
their value is other than temporary. Management utilizes criteria such as the
magnitude and duration of the decline, in addition to the reasons underlying the
decline, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. The
term "other than temporary" is not intended to indicate that the decline is
permanent, but indicates that the prospects for a near-term recovery of value is
not necessarily favorable, or that there is a lack of evidence to support
realizable value equal to or greater than carrying value of the investment. Once
a decline in value is determined to be other than temporary, the value of the
security is reduced and a corresponding charge to earnings is recognized.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

GROWTH. The Company seeks to increase its assets through internal growth
and by expanding its operations. During fiscal 2003, the Company expects to open
two new branches in fiscal 2003 to broaden its deposit base and to introduce
several new commercial lending and deposits products.

In 2002 the Company's assets increased by $21.33 million, or 3.92% from
$544.71 million at June 30, 2001 to $566.03 million at June 30, 2002 resulting
mainly from the $19.6 million growth in the loan portfolio. Such loan growth was
funded primarily by borrowings.

EMPHASIS ON COMMERCIAL LENDING. The Company has been and will continue to
expand its higher yielding portfolios of commercial real estate and commercial
business lending. This strategy is reflected in the shifting composition of the
Company's loan portfolio. The Company's commercial real estate, commercial
business and construction and land acquisition loans comprised 45.00% of its
total loan portfolio at June 20, 2002 compared to 38.69% at June 30, 2001.
Single-family and multi-family residential loans comprised 36.20% of the
Company's loan portfolio at June 30, 2002 as compared to 42.92% at June 30,
2001.

MAINTAIN LOAN QUALITY. Management believes that maintaining high loan
quality is key to achieving and sustaining long-term financial success.
Accordingly, the Company has sought to maintain a high level of asset quality
and moderate credit risk by using underwriting standards which management
believes are conservative and by generally limiting its origination of loans to
its market area. The Company's non-accrual loans decreased by $228 thousand to

34

$944 thousand at June 30, 2002 with the decrease primarily related to consumer
loans. The Company's ratio of non-performing assets to total assets at June 30,
2002 was 0.17% and its allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was
486.0%, while at June 30, 2001 the percentages were 0.22% and 363.8%,
respectively.

STABLE SOURCE OF LIQUIDITY. The Company purchases investment securities
that management believes to be appropriate for liquidity, yield and credit
quality in order to achieve a managed and more predictable source of liquidity
to meet loan demand and, to a lesser extent, a stable source of interest income.
The portfolio totaled, in the aggregate, $142.6 million at June 30, 2002
compared to $154.7 million at June 30, 2001. In addition, the Company had
short-term interest-bearing deposits of $29.2 million at June 30, 2002 compared
to $19.7 million at June 30, 2001.

EMPHASIS ON DEPOSITS AND CUSTOMER SERVICE. THE COMPANY, AS A
community-based financial institution, is largely dependent upon its base of
competitively priced core deposits to provide a stable source of funding. The
Company has retained many loyal customers over the years through a combination
of high quality service, relatively low service fees, customer convenience, an
experienced staff and a strong commitment to the communities in which it serves.
Lower costing deposits, which exclude time deposits, totaled $197.17 million or
51.1% of the Company's total deposits at June 30, 2002, as compared to $169.15
million at June 30, 2001, a $28.0 million or 16.6% increase. This increase in
lower costing deposits is primarily attributable to the continuing effort to
grow core deposits. Pursuant to the Company's strategy, the major focus in 2003
will continue to be on increasing commercial and consumer core deposits and
relying less on higher rate municipal certificates. In addition, the Company has
not used brokered deposits as a source of funds and presently has no plans to do
so in the future.

ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

The primary asset/liability management goal of the Company is to manage and
control its interest rate risk of the bank subsidiary, thereby reducing its
exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, and achieving sustainable growth in
net interest income over the long term. Other objectives of asset/liability
management include: (1) ensuring adequate liquidity and funding, (2) maintaining
a strong capital base and (3) maximizing net interest income opportunities.

In general, interest rate risk is mitigated by closely matching the
maturities or repricing periods of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities to
ensure a favorable interest rate spread. Management regularly reviews the Bank's
interest-rate sensitivity, and uses a variety of strategies as needed to adjust
that sensitivity within acceptable tolerance ranges established by management.
Changing the relative proportions of fixed-rate and adjustable-rate assets and
liabilities is one of the primary strategies utilized by the Company to
accomplish this objective.

The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the
extent to which such assets and liabilities are "interest-rate sensitive" and by
monitoring an institution's interest-sensitivity gap. An interest-sensitivity
gap is considered positive when the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets
exceeds the amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities repricing within a
defined period and is considered negative when the amount of interest-rate
sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets
repricing within a defined period.

35

To provide a more accurate one-year gap position of the Company, certain
deposit classifications are based on the interest-rate sensitive attributes and
not on the contractual repricing characteristics of these deposits. Management
estimates, based on historical trends of the Bank's deposit accounts, that a
portion of money market, NOW accounts and savings deposits are partially
sensitive to interest rate changes. Accordingly, the interest-sensitive portions
of these deposits are classified in the less than one-year categories with the
remainder in the over five years category. Deposit products with interest rates
based on a particular index, if any, are classified according to the specific
repricing characteristic of the index. Deposit rates other than time deposit
rates are variable, and changes in deposit rates are typically subject to local
market conditions and management's discretion and are not indexed to any
particular rate.

Generally, during a period of rising interest rates, a positive gap would
result in an increase in net interest income while a negative gap would
adversely affect net interest income. However, the interest-sensitivity table
that follows does not provide a comprehensive representation of the impact of
interest rate changes on net interest income. Each category of assets or
liabilities will not be affected equally or simultaneously by changes in the
general level of interest rates. Even assets and liabilities, which
contractually reprice within the same period may not, in fact, reprice at the
same price or the same time or with the same frequency. It is also important to
consider that the table represents a specific point in time. Variations can
occur as the Company adjusts its interest-sensitivity position for the Bank
throughout the year.

OPERATING RESULTS

INTEREST INCOME (TAXABLE-EQUIVALENT BASIS)

Interest income is analyzed on a tax-equivalent basis, i.e., an adjustment
is made for analysis purposes only, to increase interest income by the amount of
savings of Federal income taxes, which the Company realizes by investing in
certain tax-free municipal securities and by making loans to certain tax-exempt
organizations. In this way, the ultimate economic impact of earnings from
various assets can be more readily compared.

Total interest income decreased to $35.28 million during fiscal 2002, a
$3.10 million or 8.1% decrease over the prior fiscal year. This was due to a
$3.77 million decrease in interest income because of lower average rates during
the period which was offset, in part, by a $10.34 million increase in the
average balance of interest-earning assets which contributed $676 thousand of
additional interest income. Total interest income increased to $38.37 million
during fiscal 2001, a $3.38 million or 9.7% increase over fiscal 2000. This
increase was due to a $47.03 million increase in the average balance of
interest-earning assets, which contributed $3.55 million and was offset in part
by a decline of $0.16 million due to lower average rates. The yield on average
interest earning assets was 6.83%, 7.58% and 7.62% for fiscal year 2002, 2001
and 2000, respectively, reflecting the decline in general market rates of
interest.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Total interest expense decreased to $16.36 million during fiscal 2002, a
$5.85 million or 26.3% decrease over the prior fiscal year. The decrease in
interest expense was primarily due to a significant decrease in rates resulting
in a $6.32 million decrease in interest expense which was offset, in part, by an
increase in average balances for deposits and borrowings resulting in an
increase in interest expense of $.47 million. The average rate paid on deposits
and repurchase agreements decreased to 3.07% for fiscal 2002 from 4.65% for the
previous fiscal year while the average rate paid on borrowings decreased 60
basis points to 5.39% for fiscal 2002.

Total interest expense increased to $22.22 million during fiscal 2001, a
$3.24 million or 17.1% increase over fiscal 2000. The increase in interest
expense was primarily due to a $63.09 million increase in the average balance of
deposits and repurchase agreements, which was partially offset by a decrease of
$13.4 million in borrowings for the year ended June 30, 2001. The increase in
average balances resulted in a $3.08 million increase; however, such increases
were partially offset by a 31 basis point increase to 4.65% in the average rate
paid on deposits during fiscal 2001. The average rate paid on borrowings
increased 14 basis points to 5.99%.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income is the difference between interest income on
interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest income, on a fully tax equivalent basis, increased 17.1%, or $2.76
million to $18.91 million in fiscal 2002 from $16.15 million in fiscal 2001,
compared to a 1.0% increase of $0.14 million from fiscal 2001 to fiscal 2000.
Net interest margin, on a fully tax equivalent basis, was 3.66% for the year
ended June 30, 2002, compared to 3.19% in fiscal 2001 and 3.49% during fiscal
2000 as the Company's interest margin was compressed in 2001 by declining market
rates on interest earning assets while interest-bearing liability rates
increased from 4.67% to 4.87%.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The Company's provision for loan losses was $547,000, $445,000 and
$420,000, during fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. These additions to
the allowance for loan losses are due to the Company's focus on building a
larger loan portfolio of commercial and industrial loans which typically carry a
greater risk of loss than the Company's traditional loan portfolios, such as
mortgages and real estate loans. This change in the character of the loan
portfolio, the current depressed economic conditions and management's assessment
of the inherent risk of loss existing in the loan portfolio determined the
amount necessary to increase the allowance for loan losses to an appropriate
level. At June 30, 2002, the allowance for loan losses totaled $4.59 million or
1.26% of net loans compared to $4.26 million or 1.23% of net loans at June 30,
2001.

The Company establishes provisions for loan losses, which are charged to
operations, in order to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level which
management believes covers all known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio.
In establishing the provision, management considers among other things, the mix
of loans being booked, the delinquency trends, the volume of non-performing
loans, prior loss experience of the portfolio, current economic conditions, and
other relevant factors. Although management believes it has used the best
information available to it in making such determinations, and that the present
allowance for loan losses is adequate, future adjustments to the allowance may
be necessary, and net income may be adversely affected if the circumstances
differ substantially from the assumptions used in determining the level of the
allowance for loan losses. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an
integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company's
allowance for losses on loans. Such agencies may require the Company to
recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information
available to them at the time of their examination.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Total non-interest income decreased $582,000 or 9.8% to $5.35 million for
the year ended June 30, 2002, compared to the prior fiscal year. The principal
reason for this decrease was a $500,000 impairment loss on a low-income housing
revenue bond and a $455,000 impairment loss on a revenue bond involving a
building and related property that are leased to various agencies of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. These losses totaling $955,000 were offset by the
following: investment services income increased $52,000 or 1.4% to $3.82
million; service charges and fees increased $188,000 or 10.9% because of
increased activity; gains on the sale of loans increased $18,000; gains on
available for sale securities increased $65,000; and other income increased
$19,000. These security gains were offset by a decrease in gains on trading
account securities of $260,000.

Total non-interest income increased $394,000 or 7.1% to $5.93 million for
the year ended June 30, 2001, from the prior fiscal year. Investment services
income increased $68,000 or 1.8% to $3.77 million. An increase in checking
account fees, as the result of an increased number of accounts, and an increase
in the fees earned on the Bank's debit card due to increased usage and also an
increased number of cardholders, contributed to the increase of $71,000 or 4.3%
in service charges and fees in fiscal 2001. Also contributing were increases in
gains on the sale of loans of $100,000, gains on trading account securities of
$202,000, gains on the sale of available for sale securities of $216,000 and
other income of $28,000. These gains were offset by a loss on impaired
securities of $291,000.

39

OPERATING EXPENSES

Total operating expenses decreased $53,000 or 0.3% to $15.98 million for
the year ended June 30, 2002 compared to fiscal 2001. The decrease in operating
expenses over the prior fiscal year was primarily due to a decrease of $375,000
or 69.2% in advertising expenses relating to print advertising because the
Company moved to a more cost effective, proactive direct sales approach. Other
expenses decreased by $388,000 or 11.2% due to decreases in consulting,
printing, donations, supplies and other expenses. These decreases were offset in
part by an increase of $544,000 or 6.33% in salaries and employee benefits
resulting from normal salary adjustments effective July 1, 2001, additional
officer level staff, bonuses and the general increase in employee benefit costs.
Also, occupancy and equipment expense increased $164,000 or 12.3% resulting from
the expansion of the Company's corporate headquarters and the addition of a new
branch office in Kennett Square.

Total operating expenses increased $1.87 million or 13.2% to $16.03 million
for the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to fiscal 2000. The increase in
operating expenses in fiscal 2001 over the prior fiscal year was due to the
following: (a) salary and employee benefits increased $788,000 or 10.1%. Salary
and incentive payments increased $494,000 because of annual salary increases to
existing employees, additional employees and for incentives to employees who
achieve their goals; retirement plan contributions increased $86,000; group
health insurance increased $50,000; payroll taxes, because of higher payroll
costs and more employees increased $40,000; and directors compensation and
education expenses increase $78,000, (b) occupancy and equipment expense
increased $132,000 or 5.9% consisting primarily of an increase of $42,000 in
computer related expenses, a $45,000 increase in utilities and insurance, and a
$40,000 increase in repairs and maintenance make up a majority of the increase,
(c) data processing increased $117,000 or 13.8% due principally to the
introduction of our new eServices products (eBank for internet banking, eVoice
for 24-hour telephone banking, and eCorp for business banking), (d) deposit
insurance premiums decreased $63,000 or 46% because of regulatory changes, (e)
advertising increased $125,000 or 30%, resulting primarily from a bank image
campaign and the marketing of our new electronic internet banking products
discussed above, (f) other expenses increased $767,000 or 28.3% due to the
significant increases in legal fees of $122,000 which include the cost of the
interim president for approximately five months, audit and accounting services
of $31,000 because of special projects including our initial FDICIA compliance
work, consulting expenses of $197,000 for various non-recurring special
projects, printing expense of $61,000 because of new promotion and explanatory
material related to eServices, donations of $119,000 resulting from increased
community involvement including approximately $40,000 to a local school,
$152,000 for expenses related to the relocation of the new President, and
$69,000 for increases in other operating expenses.

INCOME TAXES

The Company incurred income tax expense of $1.36 million during fiscal
2002. The primary reason for the increase in income tax expense in fiscal 2002
compared to fiscal 2001 of $564,000 was due to higher pre-tax income and a lower
portion of the Company's pre-tax income being comprised of tax-free interest
income. The effective tax rate was 19.6% for the year ended June 30, 2002.

The Company incurred income tax expense of $564,000 for the year ended June
30, 2001, compared to $1.26 million during fiscal 2000. The primary reasons for
the decrease in income tax expense was a decrease in pretax income, an increase
in tax free income and an increase in federal low income housing tax credits for
qualified federally approved projects in fiscal 2001. The effective tax rate was
12.3% for the year ended June 30, 2001.

40

CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's assets totaled $566.03 million at June 30, 2002, as compared
with $544.71 million as of June 30, 2001, principally due to a $19.60 million
increase in loans receivable, net to $363.56 million from $343.96 million at
June 30, 2001 combined with a $15.48 million increase in cash and cash
equivalents from $23.91 million at June 30, 2001 to $39.40 million at June 30,
2002. These increases were partially offset by a $17.23 million decrease in
investment securities from $154.72 million at June 30, 2001 to $142.57 million
at June 30, 2002. Liabilities increased $17.25 million. Borrowings increased
$38.03 million from $82.67 at June 30, 2001 to $120.70 million at June 30, 2002
and the Company issued $10.00 million of Trust Preferred Securities. These
increases were used to replace deposits as a funding source by $27.37 million as
deposits decreased from $413.35 million at June 30, 2001 to $385.98 million at
June 30, 2002 as well as to fund the increase in assets noted above. The decline
in deposits primarily resulted from decreases in higher rate municipal deposits
in connection with the implementation of the Company's business plan.

Stockholders' equity increased $4.1 million to $44.17 million at June 30,
2002, from $40.10 million at June 30, 2001, as a result of net income earned of
$5.58 million during fiscal 2002, and proceeds totaling $162,000 from the
issuance of common stock upon the exercise of stock options. The increase in
stockholders' equity also reflected the effect of a decrease in the net
unrealized loss on the value of securities available for sale of $714,000. The
net unrealized loss of $1.36 million at June 30, 2001 declined to a net
unrealized loss of $649,000 at June 30, 2002. The increases in equity were
offset in part by the payment of cash dividends of $1.71 million as well as the
cost of repurchasing shares of our common stock totaling of $664,000 and the
payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares in connection with the 5% stock
dividend paid during fiscal 2002.

ASSET QUALITY

Classified assets include non-performing loans which are comprised of loans
and REO and totaled $984,000 at June 30, 2002, compared to $1.17 million at June
30, 2001. Non-performing loans to total assets was .17% at June 30, 2002,
compared to .22% at June 30, 2001. Non-performing loans at June 30, 2002,
consisted of eleven residential mortgage loans in the amount of $858,000, and
eight consumer loans totaling $86,000. The Company has one REO property recorded
at fair value less selling costs at $40,000 at June 30, 2002.

At June 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company's classified loans, which consisted
of loans classified as substandard, doubtful, loss, and REO, totaled $6.24
million and $4.84 million, respectively. Included in the assets classified
substandard at June 30, 2002 and 2001, were all loans 90 days past due and loans
which are less than 90 days delinquent, but inadequately protected by the
current paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, as well as
a well-defined weakness that may jeopardize the liquidation of the debt.
Included as substandard at June 30, 2001 are two loans totaling approximately
$3.41 million, which are current but have been listed as substandard and are
being closely monitored.

In addition to non-performing loans and REO, classified assets include
three Municipal Authority Revenue Bond investments that had an aggregate balance
of $7.1 million at June 30, 2002, after a write-down on two of the bonds
totaling $955,000. After the write-down, two of the Bonds have a carrying value
of $5.6 million and both of these bonds involve buildings and related property
that are leased to various agencies of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania under
long term lease arrangements with renewal options. Of the total balance of $5.6
million, $865 thousand are interest bearing bonds and the remainder of $4.7
million are zero coupon bonds with maturities extending up to June 2034.

41

The third classified bond has a balance, after write-down, of $1.5 million,
an interest rate of 6% and matures in June 2019. This bond involves low-income
scattered housing in Chester County under a Housing and Urban Development
Program. The Office of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has indicated that it
will provide funds to build additional housing which would be donated to this
bond issue and, when sold, would reduce the losses incurred on the bonds.

These classified investments are closely monitored and fairly stated at
June 30, 2002 based on available information. There can be no assurance that
further subsequent adverse or positive developments may occur; in which case,
additional adjustments to these investments may be forthcoming.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Management monitors liquidity daily and maintains funding sources to meet
unforeseen changes in cash requirements. The Company's primary sources of funds
are deposits, borrowings, repayments, prepayments and maturities of outstanding
loans and mortgage-backed securities, sales of assets available for sale,
maturities and calls of investment securities and other short-term investments,
and funds provided from operations. While scheduled loan and mortgage-backed
securities repayments and maturing investment securities and short-term
investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, loan
prepayments and callable investments are greatly influenced by the movement of
interest rates in general, economic conditions and competition. The Company
manages the pricing of its deposits to maintain a deposit balance deemed
appropriate and desirable. Although the Company's deposits represent the
majority of its total liabilities, the Company has also utilized other borrowing
sources, namely FHLBP advances. In addition to its ability to obtain advances
from the FHLBP under several different credit programs, the Company has
established a line of credit with the FHLBP, in an the amount $10 million. This
line of credit is available for liquidity purposes. At June 30, 2002 there was
no outstanding balance on this line of credit.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function. Excess
liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments such as FHLBP
overnight deposits. On a longer-term basis, the Company maintains a strategy of
investing in various lending and investment securities products. During the year
ended June 30, 2002, the Company used its sources of funds to primarily fund
loan commitments and maintain a substantial portfolio of investment securities,
and to meet its ongoing commitments to pay maturing savings certificates and
savings withdrawals. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had $1.99 million in
commitments to fund loan originations. The majority of these commitments are
anticipated to be funded by December 31, 2002. In addition, as of June 30, 2002,
the Company had undisbursed loans in process for construction loans of $22.83
million and $37.07 million in undisbursed lines of credit. The Company has also
issued $2.55 million in commercial letters of credit fully secured by deposit
accounts or real estate at June 30, 2002. The management of the Company believes
that the Company has adequate resources, including principal prepayments and
repayments of loans and investment securities and borrowing capacity, to fund
all of its commitments to the extent required.

For regulatory purposes, liquidity is defined as a ratio of cash and
certain marketable securities that can be readily converted into cash to total
deposits and short-term borrowings. At June 30, 2002, liquidity for the Bank as
defined under these guidelines was 31.84%.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES

The Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes presented elsewhere
herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP") which generally require the measurement of financial
position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without
considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to
inflation. Unlike many industrial companies, substantially all of the assets and
liabilities of the Company on a consolidated basis are monetary in nature. As a
result, interest rates have a more significant impact on the Company's
performance than the general level of inflation. Over a short period of time,
interest rates may not necessarily move in the same direction or with the same
magnitude as inflation.

OTHER INFORMATION

DESCRIPTION OF STOCK

The holders of the Common Stock of the Holding Company possess exclusive
voting rights in the corporation. Each holder of shares of Common Stock is
entitled to one vote for each share held, in accordance with the articles of
incorporation and bylaws, including voting on the election of directors. Of the
10.00 million shares of Common Stock authorized by the Holding Company, 5.66
million shares remain unissued. In addition, none of the 5.00 million shares of
Preferred Stock authorized has been issued.

DIVIDEND POLICY

The Board of Directors of the Holding Company intends to continue the
policy of paying dividends when the directors deem it prudent to do so. The
Board of Directors will consider payment of dividends on a quarterly basis,
after giving consideration to all relevant factors. On August 21, 2002 the Board
of Directors of the Holding Company declared a $.10 per share cash dividend and
a 5% stock dividend based on the their review and evaluation of financial
results of the quarter ended June 30, 2002. The cash dividend will be calculated
on shares held before the issuance of the stock dividend. During fiscal 2001,
2000, and 1999 the Holding Company paid a total of $1.46 million, $1.38 million,
and $1.15 million, respectively, in cash dividends and a 5% stock dividend in
each year. Cash dividends from the Holding Company are primarily dependent upon
dividends paid to it by the Bank, which, in turn, are subject to certain
restrictions established by federal regulators and Pennsylvania law. (See Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements.)

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and
rates. The Company's market risk arises primarily from the interest rate risk
inherent in its lending, investment and deposit taking activities. To that end,
management actively monitors and manages its interest rate risk exposure.

Interest rates declined from January 2001 through December 2001 but there
has been no movement in rates since December 2001. As a result, loans, which are
linked to an index such as the London Interbank Offered Rate ("Libor") or Prime
Rate, were repriced at lower interest rates and deposit products have repriced
as deposits rates are adjusted. The principal source of deposits, the
certificates of deposit, will adjust only when they mature and are renewed by
the customers.

The Company's profitability is affected by fluctuations in interest rates.
A sudden and substantial change in interest rates may adversely impact the
Company's earnings to the extent that the yields on interest-sensitive assets
and interest-sensitive liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same
extent, or on the same basis. The Company monitors the impact of changes in
interest rates between assets and liabilities as discussed in the
"Asset/Liability Management" in Item 7 hereof. Although interest rate
sensitivity gap analysis is a useful measurement tool and contributes towards
effective asset liability management, it is difficult to predict the effect of
changing interest rates based solely on that measure.

43

The Company utilizes an income simulation modeling to measure the Company's
interest rate risk and to manage its interest rate sensitivity. Income
simulation considers not only the impact of changing market interest rates on
forecasted net interest income, but also other factors such as yield curve
relationships, the volume and mix of assets and liabilities, customer
preferences and general market conditions.

Through the use of income simulation modeling the Company is able to
calculate an estimate of net interest income for the year ending June 30, 2003,
based upon the assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments
in existence at June 30, 2002. The Company has also estimated changes to that
estimated net interest income based upon interest rates rising or falling in
monthly increments ("rate ramps"). Rate ramps assume that all interest rates
increase or decrease in monthly increments evenly throughout the period modeled.

Economic value of equity (EVE) estimates the discounted present value of
asset and liability cash flows. Discount rates are based upon market prices for
comparable assets and liabilities. Upward and downward rate shocks are used to
measure volatility in relation to such interest rate movements in relation to an
unchanged environment. This method of measurement primarily evaluates the longer
term repricing risks and options in the Company's balance sheet. The following
table reflects the estimated economic value of equity at risk and the ratio of
EVE adjusted equity to EVE adjusted assets at June 30, 2002, resulting from
shocks to interest rates.

(300) 40,235 (23,061) -36% 6.91% (391)

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the above
interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes in net present value ("NPV")
require the making of certain assumptions which may or may not reflect the
manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest
rates. In this regard, the NPV table presented above assumes that the
composition of the Company's interest sensitive assets and liabilities existing
at the beginning of a period remains constant over the period being measured and
also assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly
across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or repricing of
specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the NPV table provides an
indication of the Company's interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in
time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise
forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on the Company's net
interest income and will differ from actual results.

44

The Company's primary objective in managing interest rate risk is to
minimize the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on the Company's net
interest income and capital, while structuring the Company's asset/liability
structure to obtain the maximum yield/cost spread on that structure. The Company
relies primarily on its asset/liability structure to control interest rate risk.

The Company continually evaluates interest rate risk management
opportunities, including the use of derivative financial instruments. Management
believes that hedging instruments currently available are not cost-effective
and, therefore, has focused its efforts on increasing the Company's yield/cost
spread through wholesale and retail opportunities.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

MANAGEMENT'S STATEMENT ON FINANCIAL REPORTING

To Our Shareholders:

The management of Chester Valley Bancorp Inc. (the "Company") is responsible for
the preparation, integrity and fair presentation of its published financial
statements. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America and, as such, include amounts that are based on and are estimates of
management.

There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal
control including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or
overriding the controls. Accordingly, even an effective internal control
structure can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial
statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the degree of
effectiveness of an internal control structure may vary over time.

Management assessed the Company's internal control structure over financial
reporting presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
as of June 30, 2002. This assessment was based on criteria for effective
internal control over financial reporting described in "Internal
Control-Integrated Framework" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management
believes that, as of June 30, 2002, the Company maintained an effective internal
control structure over financial data presented in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management is also responsible for compliance with the federal laws and
regulations concerning dividend restrictions and loans to insiders designated by
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as safety and soundness laws and
regulations.

The Company assessed its compliance with the designated laws and regulations
relating to safety and soundness. Based on this assessment, management believes
that Chester Valley Bancorp Inc. complied, in all material respects, with the
designated laws and regulations related to safety and soundness as of June 30,
2002.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BUSINESS

Chester Valley Bancorp Inc. (the "Holding Company") was incorporated in the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in August 1989. Effective September 1, 2001, the
Holding Company became a bank holding company as a result of the conversion of
First Financial Bank ("First Financial" or the "Bank") from a Pennsylvania
chartered savings association to a Pennsylvania chartered commercial bank. The
Bank holding company has also been designated as a financial holding company.
The business of the Holding Company and its subsidiaries (collectively the
"Company") consists of the operations of First Financial and Philadelphia
Corporation for Investment Services ("PCIS"), a full service investment advisory
and securities brokerage firm. The Bank provides a wide range of banking
services to individual and corporate customers through its nine branch banks in
Chester County, Pennsylvania. All of the branches are full service and offer
commercial and retail products. These products include checking accounts
(non-interest and interest-bearing), savings accounts, certificates of deposit,
commercial and installment loans, real estate mortgages, and home equity loans.
The Bank also offers ancillary services that complement these products. The Bank
is subject to competition from other financial institutions and other companies
that provide financial services. PCIS is registered as a broker/dealer in all 50
states and Washington, DC and it is also registered as an investment advisor
with the Securities Exchange Commission. PCIS provides many additional services,
including self-directed and managed retirement accounts, safekeeping, daily
sweep money market funds, portfolio and estate valuations, life insurance and
annuities, and margin accounts to individuals and smaller corporate accounts.
The Company is subject to the regulations of various federal and state agencies
and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Holding Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, First Financial and PCIS. The
accounts of the First Financial include its wholly-owned subsidiary, D & S
Service Corp., which owns D & F Projects and Wildman Projects, Inc., both of
which are wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Prior period amounts are
reclassified when necessary to conform with the current year's presentation.

The Company follows accounting principles and reporting practices, which are in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is
required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities as of the date of the statement of financial condition
and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ
significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly
susceptible to significant change in the near-term relate to the determination
of the allowance for loan losses, income taxes, and the valuation of investment.
Management believes that the allowance for loan losses, the balances in the
income tax accounts, and the valuation of investments are adequate. Various
regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process,
periodically review the Bank's allowance for loan losses and valuations of real
estate owned. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the
allowance or adjustments to the valuations based on their judgments about
information available to them at the time of their examination.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141, "Business Combinations." The
Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for business combinations
and supersedes APB Opinion No. 16, Business Combinations, and FASB Statement No.
38, Accounting for Preacquisition Contingencies of Purchased Enterprises. All
business combinations in the scope of the Statement are to be accounted for
using the purchase method.

The provisions of the Statement apply to all business combinations initiated
after June 30, 2001. The Statement also applies to all business combinations
accounted for using the purchase method for which the date of acquisition is
July 1, 2001, or later. There was no impact on earnings, financial condition, or
equity upon adoption of Statement No. 141.

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets." The Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired
goodwill and other intangible assets and supersedes APB Opinion No. 17,
Intangible Assets. It addresses how intangible assets that are acquired
individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a
business combination) should be accounted for in financial statements upon their
acquisition. The Statement also addresses how goodwill and other intangible
assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the
financial statements.

The provisions of the Statement are required to be applied starting with fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2001, except that goodwill and intangible
assets acquired after June 30, 2001, will be subject immediately to the
nonamortization and amortization provisions of the Statement. Early application
is permitted for entities with fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001,
provided that the first interim financial statements have not previously been
issued. The Statement is required to be applied at the beginning of an entity's
fiscal year and to be applied to all goodwill and other intangible assets
recognized in its financial statements at that date. There was no impact on
earnings, financial condition, or equity upon adoption of Statement No. 142.

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations." This Statement addresses financial accounting and
reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived
assets and the associated asset retirement costs. It applies to legal
obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from
the acquisition, construction, development and (or) the normal operation of a
long-lived asset, except for certain obligations of lessees. As used in this
Statement, a legal obligation is an obligation that a party is required to
settle as a result of an existing or enacted law, statute, ordinance, or written
or oral contract or by legal construction of a contract under the doctrine of
promissory estoppel. This Statement requires that the fair value of a liability
for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is
incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated
asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the
long-lived asset.

This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 19, Financial Accounting and Reporting
by Oil and Gas Producing Companies, and it applies to all entities. It is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June
15, 2002. The adoption of the Statement did not have an impact on the Company's
earnings, financial condition, or equity.

53

IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This Statement addresses financial
accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and
supersedes SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and
for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of. However, the Statement retains the
fundamental provisions of Statement 121 for (a) recognition and measurement of
the impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used and (b) measurement of
long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale.

This Statement supersedes the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion
No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of
a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring
Events and Transactions, for the disposal of a segment of a business. However,
this Statement retains the requirement of Opinion 30 to report discontinued
operations separately from continuing operations and extends that reporting to a
component of an entity that either has been disposed of (by sale, by
abandonment, or in distribution to owners) or is classified as held for sale.
This Statement also amends ARB No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, to
eliminate the exception to consolidation for a temporarily controlled
subsidiary.

The provisions of this Statement are effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. The provisions of this Statement generally are to be applied
prospectively. The adoption of the Statement did not have an impact on the
Company's earnings, financial condition, or equity.

RESCISSION OF FASB STATEMENTS NO. 4, 44, AND 64

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145 "Rescission of FASB Statements No.
4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections."
This Statement rescinds FASB Statement No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from
Extinguishment of Debt, and an amendment of that Statement, FASB Statement No.
64, Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements, along
with rescinding FASB Statement No. 44, Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor
Carriers and amending FASB Statement No. 13, Accounting for Leases. This
Statement (1) eliminates an inconsistency between the required accounting for
sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease
modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback
transactions, (2) eliminates the extraordinary item treatment of reporting gains
and losses from extinguishment of debt, and (3) makes certain other technical
corrections.

The provisions of this Statement related to the rescission of Statement 4 shall
be applied in fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The provisions of this
Statement related to Statement 13 shall be effective for transactions occurring
after May 15, 2002. All other provisions of this Statement shall be effective
for financial statements issued on or after May 15, 2002. The adoption of this
Statement did not have an impact on the Company's earnings, financial condition
or equity.

ACCOUNTING FOR COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146 "Accounting for Costs Associated with
Exit or Disposal Activities." This Statement addresses financial accounting and
reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies
Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for
Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity
(including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)."

The provisions of this Statement are effective for exit or disposal activities
that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged.
The Company does not expect the adoption of this Statement to have an impact on
its earnings, financial condition or equity.

54

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For the purpose of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash
equivalents include cash and interest-bearing deposits with an original maturity
of generally three months or less.

SECURITIES

The Company divides its securities portfolio into three segments: (a) held to
maturity; (b) available for sale; and (c) trading. At the time of purchase, the
Company makes a determination on whether or not it will hold the investments to
maturity, based upon an evaluation of the probability of the occurrence of
future events. Securities classified as held to maturity are accounted for at
amortized cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts
using a method which approximates a level yield, based on the Company's intent
and ability to hold the securities until maturity. Trading securities are
accounted for at quoted market prices with changes in market values thereof
being recorded as gain or loss in the statement of operations. All other
securities, including investment securities which the Company believes may be
involved in interest rate risk, liquidity, or other asset-liability management
decisions which might reasonably result in such securities not being held until
maturity, are included in the available for sale category and are accounted for
at fair value with unrealized gains or losses, net of taxes, being reflected as
adjustments to equity. If investment securities are sold, any gain or loss is
determined by specific identification and reflected in the operating results for
the period in which the sale occurs.

OTHER THAN TEMPORARY IMPAIRMENT OF INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Securities are evaluated periodically to determine whether a decline in their
value is other than temporary. Management utilizes criteria such as the
magnitude and duration of the decline, in addition to the reasons underlying the
decline, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. The
term "other than temporary" is not intended to indicate that the decline is
permanent, but indicates that the prospects for a near-term recovery of value is
not necessarily favorable, or that there is a lack of evidence to support
realizable value equal to or greater than carrying value of the investment. Once
a decline in value is determined to be other than temporary, the value of the
security is reduced and a corresponding charge to earnings is recognized.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that represents
management's best estimate of known and inherent losses, which are probable and
reasonably determinable based upon an evaluation of the loan portfolio.
Homogeneous portfolios of loans, which include residential mortgage, home equity
and other consumer loans, are evaluated as a group. Commercial business,
commercial mortgage and construction loans are evaluated individually. Specific
portions of the allowance are developed by analyzing individual loans for
adequacy of collateral, cash flow and other risks which may be unique to that
particular loan. General portions of the allowance are developed by grading
individual loans in the commercial and construction portfolios and applying loss
factors by grade. The general portion of the allowance also includes loss
factors applied to the homogeneous portfolios as a group. The loss factors
applied to graded loans were developed based on the Company's loss history for
loans with similar attributes as well as input from the Company's primary
banking regulators. Loss factors are applied to homogeneous loans based upon
prior loss experience of the portfolio delinquency trends and the volume of
non-performing loans. Although management believes it has used the best

55

information available to it in making such determinations, and that the present
allowance for loan losses is adequate, future adjustments to the allowance may
be necessary, and net income may be adversely affected if circumstances differ
substantially from the assumptions used in determining the level of the
allowance. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of
their examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for losses
on loans. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the
allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the
time of their examination. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan
losses, which is charged to operations. Loan losses, other than those incurred
on loans held for sale, are charged directly against the allowance and
recoveries on previously charged-off loans are added to the allowance.

For purposes of applying the measurement criteria for impaired loans, the
Company excludes large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, primarily
consisting of residential real estate loans and consumer loans as well as
commercial business loans with balances of less than $100,000. For applicable
loans, the Company evaluates the need for impairment recognition when a loan
becomes non-accrual or earlier if, based on management's assessment of the
relevant facts and circumstances, it is probable that the Company will be unable
to collect all proceeds under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. At
and during the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, the recorded investment
in impaired loans was not significant. The Company's policy for the recognition
of interest income on impaired loans is the same as for non-accrual loans. A
portion of an impaired loan is charged off when the Company determines that
foreclosure is probable and the fair value of the collateral is less than the
recorded investment of the impaired loan.

LOANS, LOAN ORIGINATION FEES AND UNCOLLECTED INTEREST

Loans (other than loans held for sale) are recorded at cost net of unearned
discounts, deferred fees and allowances. Discounts and premiums on purchased
loans are amortized using the interest method over the remaining contractual
life of the portfolio, adjusted for actual prepayments. Loan origination fees
and certain direct origination costs are deferred and amortized over the life of
the related loans as an adjustment of the yield on the loans.

Uncollected interest receivable on loans is accrued to income as earned.
Non-accrual loans are loans on which the accrual of interest has ceased because
the collection of principal or interest payments is determined to be doubtful by
management. It is the policy of the Company to discontinue the accrual of
interest when principal or interest payments are delinquent 90 days or more
(unless the loan principal and interest are determined by management to be fully
secured and in the process of collection), or earlier, if the financial
condition of the borrower raises significant concern with regard to the ability
of the borrower to service the debt in accordance with the current loan terms.
Interest income on such loans is not accrued until the financial condition and
payment record of the borrower once again demonstrate the ability to service the
debt.

LOANS HELD FOR SALE

The Company originates certain loans that are designated as held for sale at the
time of their origination. These loans are immediately sold with servicing
released and the company does not retain any interest or obligation after the
loans are sold. These loans consist primarily of fixed-rate, single-family
residential mortgage loans which meet the underwriting characteristics of
certain government-sponsored enterprises (conforming loans). Loans held for sale
are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or fair value, with any resulting
loss included in other income for the period. Realized gains or losses are
included in other income for the period. Loans sold prior to 1990 were sold with
servicing retained. The Company recognizes servicing fee income when payments
are received.

56

REAL ESTATE OWNED ("REO")

Real estate acquired through foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is
classified as REO. REO is carried at the lower of cost (lesser of carrying value
of the loan or fair value of the property at date of acquisition) or fair value
less selling expenses. Costs relating to the development or improvement of the
property are capitalized; holding costs are charged to expense.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets, which range from 15 to 30 years for property and 3
to 7 years for equipment. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the
cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts. The
cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred and renewals
and betterments are capitalized.

DEFERRED INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to
be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a
change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the
enactment date.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

The dilutive effect of stock options is excluded from basic earnings per share,
but included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. Earnings per
share and weighted average shares outstanding have been adjusted to reflect the
effects of the 5% stock dividends paid in September 2001, 2000, and 1999. The
following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per

Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers
generally have the right to call or prepay obligations without prepayment
penalties. The weighted average yield, based on amortized cost, is presented on
a taxable equivalent basis using the Federal marginal rate of 34% adjusted for
the 20% interest expense disallowance (27.2%). Proceeds from sales and calls of
investment securities available for sale during fiscal 2002, 2001, and 2000,
were $77.61, $54.80 and $58.94 million, respectively. Gross gains of $454, $253
and $195 thousand, in fiscal 2002 2001 and 2000, respectively, and gross losses,
including impairment losses, of $1.12 million, $320, and $184 thousand, in
fiscal 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively, were realized on those sales. Accrued
interest receivable on investments amounted to $905 thousand and $1.98 million
at June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. At June 30, 2002, $91.88 million of
investment securities were pledged as collateral for Municipal savings deposits
with the Bank, for securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and for the
Bank's treasury, tax and loan account with the Federal Reserve.

Investments include three classified Municipal Authority Revenue Bond
investments that had an aggregate balance of $7.1 million at June 30, 2002,
after a write-down on two of the Bonds totaling $955,000. After the write-down,
two of the Bonds have a carrying value of $5.6 million and both of these bonds
involve buildings and related property that are leased to various agencies of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania under long term lease arrangements with renewal
options. Of the total balance of $5.6 million, $865 thousand are interest
bearing bonds and the remainder of $4.7 million are zero coupon bonds with
maturities extending up to June 2034.

The third classified bond has a balance, after write-down, of $1.5 million, an
interest rate of 6% and matures in June 2019. This bond involves low-income
scattered housing in Chester County under a Housing and Urban Development
Program. The Office of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has indicated that
they will provide funds to build additional housing which would be donated to
this bond issue and, when sold, would reduce the losses incurred on the bonds.

There can be no assurance that further subsequent adverse or positive
developments may occur; in which case, additional adjustments to these
investments may be forthcoming.

59

Debt securities included in available for sale securities at June 30, 2002 and
2000 primarily consist of long term Corporate Debt obligations with ratings of A
and above and most of these obligations are floating rates tied to movements in
the Treasury markets.

In July of fiscal 2001, the Company adopted SFAS 133 resulting in an unrealized
loss of $163 thousand because of the transfer of securities from held to
maturity to available for sale, which was recognized in other comprehensive
income.

========== ==========

Accrued interest receivable on loans amounted to $1.62 and $1.58 million at June
30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. At June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000, the Company
serviced loans for others totaling $23.7, $20.6 and $23.7 million, respectively.

The aggregate amount of loans by the Company to its directors and executive
officers was $1.27 million and $3.95 million at June 30, 2002 and 2001,
respectively. These loans were made in the ordinary course of business at
substantially the same terms and conditions as those with other borrowers. An
analysis of the activity of these loans, in millions, follows:

Balance at July 1, 2001 $3.95
New loans .00
Repayments (0.29)

=====

The total amount of non-performing loans was $944 thousand, $1.17 million, and
$942 thousand, at June 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. If these
non-performing loans had been current in accordance with their original terms
and had been outstanding throughout the period, the gross interest income for
fiscal 2002, 2001, and 2000 that would have been recorded for these loans was
$195, $160, and $82 thousand. Interest income on these non-performing loans
included in income for fiscal 2002, 2001, and 2000 amounted to $114, $23
thousand, and $24 thousand, respectively. At June 30, 2002, and throughout
fiscal 2001, there were no loans for which impairment was required to be
recognized.

NOTE 6 - ADVANCES FROM FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK OF PITTSBURGH ("FHLBP")

Under the terms of its collateral agreement with the FHLBP, the Company
maintains otherwise unencumbered qualifying assets (principally 1-4 family
residential mortgage loans and U.S. Government and Agency notes and bonds) in
the amount of at least as much as its advances from the FHLBP. The Company's
FHLBP stock is also pledged to secure these advances. At June 30, 2002 and 2001,
such advances (dollars in thousands) mature as follows:

WEIGHTED WEIGHTED

======================================= =======================================

Included in the table above at June 30, 2002 are $81.0 million of convertible
advances whereby the FHLBP (Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh) has the option
at a predetermined time to convert the fixed interest rate to an adjustable rate
tied to LIBOR (London Inter Bank Offering Rate). The Bank has the option to
prepay these advances if the FHLBP converts the interest rate. These advances
are included in the year in which they mature.

The Company has a line of credit of $10 million with the FHLBP. The Company,
from time to time, will use the line of credit to meet liquidity needs. At June
30, 2002 and 2001, there were no balances outstanding on the line of credit.

NOTE 7 - TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES

On March 26, 2002, the Company issued $10.31 million of Junior Subordinated
Debentures to Chester Valley Statutory Trust, a Pennsylvania Business Trust, in
which the Company owns all of the common equity. The Trust then issued $10.00
million of Trust Preferred Securities which pay interest quarterly at 3 month
Libor plus 3.60 basis points to investors which are secured by the Junior
Subordinated Debentures and the guarantee of the Company. The Junior
Subordinated Debentures are treated as debt of the Company but they qualify as
Tier I capital, subject to certain limitations under the risk-based capital
guidelines of the Federal Reserve. The Trust Preferred Securities are callable
by the Company on March 26, 2007, or at any time in the event the deduction of
related interest for federal income taxes is prohibited, the treatment as Tier I
capital is no longer permitted or under certain other circumstances. The Trust
Preferred Securities must be redeemed by the Company upon maturity of the
debentures in 2032.

the following (in thousands):

AT JUNE 30,

------ ------
Gross deferred tax liabilities 270 342

Net deferred tax assets $2,172 $2,424
====== ======

The realizability of deferred tax assets is dependent upon a variety of factors,
including the generation of future taxable income, the existence of taxes paid
and recoverable, the reversal of deferred tax liabilities and tax planning
strategies. Based upon these and other factors, management believes it is more
likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deferred tax
assets.

63

The Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996 ("Act"), enacted on August 20,
1996, provides for the repeal of the tax bad debt deduction computed under the
percentage of taxable income method. The repeal of the use of this method is
effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 1995. Prior to the change
in law, the Bank had qualified under the provisions of the Code which permitted
it to deduct from taxable income an allowance for bad debts based on 8% of
taxable income.

Upon repeal, the Bank is required to recapture into income, over a six-year
period, the portion of its tax bad debt reserves that exceed its base year
reserves (i.e., tax reserves for tax years beginning before 1988). The base year
tax reserves, which may be subject to recapture if the Bank ceases to qualify as
a bank for federal income tax purposes, are restricted with respect to certain
distributions. The Bank's total tax bad debt reserves at June 30, 2002, are
approximately $2.8 million of which $2.64 million represents the base year
amount and $160 thousand is subject to recapture. The Company has previously
recorded a deferred tax liability for the excess base year reserves to be
recaptured; therefore, this recapture will not impact the statement of
operations.

NOTE 9 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk:
- --------------------------------------------------

In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to financial
instruments with off-balance-sheet risk which meet the financing needs of its
customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates.
Commitments to originate loans amounted to $1.99 million as of June 30, 2002,
which represent fixed-rate loans with interest rates ranging 6.13% to 7.50%. At
June 30, 2002, the Company had undisbursed loans in process for construction
loans of $22.83 and $37.07 million in undisbursed lines of credit. In addition,
at such date the Company has issued $2.55 million in commercial letters of
credit fully secured by deposit accounts or real estate.

Concentration of credit risk:
- ----------------------------

The Company is principally a local lender and therefore has a significant
concentration of residential and commercial real estate loans as well as
consumer and commercial business loans to borrowers who reside in and/or which
are collateralized by real estate located primarily in Chester County,
Pennsylvania. The ability of such customers to honor these obligations is
dependent, in varying degrees, on the overall economic performance of this
diversified area.

Other commitments:
- ------------------

The Bank and PCIS have entered into operating leases for several of their branch
and office facilities. The minimum annual rental payments under these leases at
June 30, 2002, (in thousands) are as follows:

MINIMUM LEASE
YEAR PAYMENTS
---- --------
2003 $586
2004 559
2005 454
2006 361
2007 240
2008 and thereafter 911

Rent expense under these leases for each of the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001,
and 2000, was $639, $498, and $573 thousand, respectively.

64

NOTE 10 - AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

During fiscal 2001 and 2000 the Company entered into an agreement with one of
the directors of the Company to perform reviews of appraisals in connection with
the origination of residential mortgage loans. The Board of Directors approved
the agreements and the Bank paid $2 thousand, and $3 thousand in 2001 and 2000,
respectively. No fees were paid in 2002.

Two directors of the Company are a principal and a partner in law firms which
the Company retained during fiscal years 2002, 2001, and 2000, and which the
Company intends to retain during fiscal year 2003. During the year ended
December 31, 2001, the amount of legal fees paid to the law firms did not exceed
5% of those firms' gross revenues for such year.

A director of the Company is an executive officer, director and principal of an
investment banking firm from which the Company purchased and sold investment
securities during fiscal years 2002, 2001, and 2000. The Company intends to
continue the business relationship during fiscal 2003. The purchases of
investment securities from the investment banking firm amounted to $39.90,
$90.11, and $162.08 million, and the sales amounted to $85.54, $98.69, and
$131.68 million, during fiscal years 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively. These
securities were purchased and sold at market rates and on terms no more
favorable to the investment banking firm than those obtainable on an
arm's-length basis. The investment banking firm receives income on these
transactions as a result of a spread differential (on a net yield basis). During
the year ended December 31, 2001, the amount of income earned by the investment
banking firm related to the investment activity with the Company did not exceed
5% of that firm's gross revenues for such year.

A director of the Company is a director and president of a mortgage banking firm
from which the Company purchased single-family residential mortgage loans during
fiscal year 2000, and the Company intends to continue the business relationship
during fiscal year 2003. During fiscal 2000, the purchases of loans from the
mortgage banking firm amounted to $1.61 million with fees of $24 thousand paid
to the firm. The loans were purchased at market rates and terms no more
favorable to the mortgage banking firm than those obtainable on an arm's-length
basis.

NOTE 11 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

At the time of its conversion from a state-chartered mutual association to a
state-chartered capital stock association, the Bank established a liquidation
account in an amount equal to $4.8 million at September 30, 1986. The
liquidation account is maintained for the benefit of eligible savings account
holders who have maintained their savings account in the Bank after conversion.
In the unlikely event of a complete liquidation, each eligible savings account
holder will be entitled to receive a liquidation distribution from the
liquidation account, in the amount of the then current adjusted sub-account
balance for savings accounts held, before any liquidation distribution may be
made with respect to capital stock.

Except for the repurchase of stock and payment of dividends by the Bank, the
existence of the liquidation account does not restrict the use or application of
such net worth. The Company may not declare or pay a cash dividend on, or
repurchase, any of its common stock if the effect thereof would cause the net
worth of the Bank to be reduced below the amount required for the liquidation
account.

In September 2001 and 2000, the Company paid 5% common stock dividends in the
amounts of 205,890 and 274,108 shares, respectively, from authorized but
unissued common stock with fractional shares being paid in the form of cash.

NOTE 12 - REGULATORY CAPITAL

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by
the federal banking agencies. As a result of the Holding Company's designation
as a bank holding company, it will also become subject to regulatory capital
requirements. 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 Company's and the Bank's
financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital
guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities,
and certain off balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting
practices. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to
qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and
other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table
below) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to
risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average
assets (as defined). At June 30, 2002 and 2001 the Bank was in compliance with
all such requirements and is deemed a "well-capitalized" institution for
regulatory purposes. There are no conditions or events since June 30, 2002 that
management believes have changed the institution's category.

The Bank's actual capital amounts and ratios as calculated under OTS regulations
for June 30, 2001 are presented in the table as follows (dollars in thousands).
As a result of the Bank's conversion to a Pennsylvania-chartered commercial
bank, as of September 1, 2001, it is now subject to the regulatory capital
requirements of the FDIC rather than the OTS, which requirements at June 30,
2002 are presented below.

NOTE 13 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company is required to disclose estimated fair values for its financial
instruments.

Limitations
- -----------

Estimates of fair value are made at a specific point in time, based upon, where
available, relevant market prices and information about the financial
instrument. Such estimates do not include any premium or discount that could
result from offering for sale at one time the Company's entire holdings of a
particular financial instrument. For a substantial portion of the Company's
financial instruments, no quoted market exists. Therefore, estimates of fair
value are necessarily based on a number of significant assumptions (many of
which involve events outside the control of management). Such assumptions
include assessments of current economic conditions, perceived risks associated
with these financial instruments and their counterparts, future expected loss
experience and other factors. Given the uncertainties surrounding these
assumptions, the reported fair values represent estimates only, and therefore
cannot be compared to the historical accounting model. Use of different
assumptions or methodologies are likely to result in significantly different
fair value estimates.

66

The estimated fair values presented neither include nor give effect to the
values associated with the Company's banking, or other businesses, existing
customer relationships, extensive branch banking network, property, equipment,
goodwill or certain tax implications related to the realization of unrealized
gains or losses. Also, the fair values of non-interest-bearing demand deposits,
savings and NOW accounts and money market deposit accounts are equal to the
carrying amount because these deposits have no stated maturity. This approach to
estimating fair value excludes the significant benefit that results from the
low-cost funding provided by such deposit liabilities, as compared to
alternative sources of funding. As a consequence, the fair value of individual
assets and liabilities may not be reflective of the fair value of a financial
services organization that is a going concern.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each major classification of financial instrument at June 30, 2002 and 2001:

Cash and cash equivalents:
- -------------------------

Current carrying amounts approximate estimated fair value.

Trading account securities, securities held to maturity and securities available
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
for sale:
- ---------

Current quoted market prices were used to determine fair value.

Loans:
- ------

Fair values were estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial
characteristics. Loans were segregated by type, and each loan category was
further segmented by fixed- and adjustable-rate interest terms. The estimated
fair value of the segregated portfolios was calculated by discounting cash flows
through the estimated maturity and prepayment speeds while using estimated
market discount rates that reflected credit and interest risk inherent in the
loans. The estimate of the maturities and prepayment speeds was based on the
Company's historical experience.

Deposits:
- ---------

The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as non-interest-bearing
deposits, savings, NOW and money market accounts, as well as repurchase
agreements, is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of
certificates of deposit was estimated by discounting the contractual cash flows
using current market rates offered in the Company's market area for deposits
with comparable terms and maturities.

Borrowed Funds:
- ---------------

The fair value of borrowings was estimated using rates currently available to
the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

67

Off-Balance Sheet Instruments:
- ------------------------------

The fair value of off-balance sheet instruments, including commitments to extend
credit and stand-by letters of credit, is estimated using the fees currently
charged to enter into similar agreements with comparable remaining terms and
reflects the present creditworthiness of the counterparties.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's financial
instruments were as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 14 - EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Stock Compensation Program
- --------------------------

The Company has two stock option plans (collectively, the "Plans") -- the 1993
Plan and the 1997 Plan. At June 30, 2002, an aggregate of 0 and 146,447,
respectively, authorized but unissued shares of common stock of the Company,
adjusted for the stock dividends and stock splits effected by the Company
subsequent to the effective date of each of the Plans were reserved for issuance
under the 1993 Plan and the 1997 Plan. As of June 30, 2002, there were 269,951
and 517,257 options granted under the 1993 and 1997 Plan, respectively. Under
the Plans, the option price per share for options granted may not be less than
the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Options may be
granted under the 1993 Plan and the 1997 Plan during the ten-year periods ending
2003 and 2007, respectively, and options granted under the Plans are exercisable
up to ten years from the date of grant. Rights to exercise options under the
Plans may be limited by imposition of vesting schedules at the time the options
are granted.

68

The following table is a summary of option transactions since June 30, 1999.
These options and option prices for the years 2002, 2001, and 2000 have been
adjusted to reflect the stock dividends.

Weighted-average fair
value of options granted $ 4.66 $ 5.51 $ 4.97

At June 30, 2002, the range of exercise prices was $7.27 to $17.62 and the
weighted average remaining contractual life of the outstanding options is 7.9
years. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was used to determine the
grant-date fair value of options. Significant assumptions used in the model
included a weighted average risk free rate of return of 5.09% in 2002, 5.89% in
2001, and 5.86% in 2000; expected option life of 6 years for 2002, 2001, and
2000 options; expected stock price volatility of 32.37% for 2002, 33.61% for
2001, and 29.91% for 2000 and expected dividends of 2.55%, 2.59%, and 2.12%, for
2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively.

The Company, as permitted, has elected not to adopt the fair value accounting
provisions of SFAS 123 "Accounting for Stock-based Compensation", and has
instead continued to apply APB Opinion 25 and related Interpretations in
accounting for plans and provide the required proforma disclosures of SFAS 123.
Had the grant-date fair-value provisions of SFAS 123 been adopted, the Company
would have recognized the following:

PROFORMA
OPTIONS COMPENSATION PROFORMA DILUTED EARNINGS
JUNE 30, OUTSTANDING EXPENSE NET INCOME PER SHARE
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2000 355,314 $269,000 $4,290,000 $0.99
2001 373,416 306,000 3,700,000 0.85
2002 565,283 504,000 5,170,000 1.19

The effects of proforma net income and diluted earnings per share of applying
the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 for past fiscal years may not be
representative of the future proforma effects on net income and earnings per
share due to the vesting provisions of the options and future awards that are
available to be granted.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
- ------------------------------------

The Bank maintains an ESOP for all employees of the Bank with at least one year
of credited service. Benefits become 20% vested after three years of service,
increasing to 100% after seven years. Forfeitures are reallocated among
remaining participating employees. Vested benefits are generally payable upon
retirement, disability or separation from service.

The ESOP is subject to the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the regulations of the Internal Revenue
Service and the Department of Labor.

69

The ESOP has been funded by contributions from the Bank, and benefits to
participants are normally paid in cash or whole shares of common stock.

The ESOP plan was established in October 1987. Contributions to the ESOP and
forfeited shares were allocated among members on the basis of compensation.
Dividends received on the ESOP shares are allocated to participants based on the
number of shares held by each participant. A total of 13,466, 13,024 and 57,901
shares were allocated in fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The shares of
stock allocated by the ESOP during the three years ended June 30, 2002 were
purchased by the plan from Company contributions and dividends received on the
ESOP shares.

Contributions by the Bank to the ESOP in fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000 amounted to
$50 thousand, $110 thousand and $122 thousand, respectively, and are included in
the accompanying consolidated statements of operations in salaries and employee
benefits. The ESOP loans matured and were paid in April 1999.

Pension Plan
- ------------

The Bank has a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan which is fully
funded through a multi-employer investment trust covering qualified salaried
employees. Costs recognized for the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000,
totaled $209 thousand, $82 thousand, and $6 thousand, respectively. Information
relative to the financial status of the Bank's portion of the Plan is not
currently available.

NOTE 15 - SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company has two reportable segments: the Bank and PCIS. The Bank operates a
branch bank network with nine full-service banking offices and provides deposits
and loan services to customers. Additionally, the Bank offers trust services at
its Downingtown headquarters. PCIS operates a full service investment advisory
and securities brokerage firm through two offices. Both segments operate
primarily in southeastern Pennsylvania.

The Company evaluates performance based on profit or loss from operations after
income taxes not including nonrecurring gains and losses. There are no material
intersegment sales or transfers. The Company's reportable segments have
traditionally been two independent financial services institutions. The two
segments are managed separately. All senior officers from PCIS prior to the
acquisition have been retained to manage the segment.
