PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
In February 1998, HopFed Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") issued and sold
4,033,625 shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"),
in connection with the conversion of Hopkinsville Federal Savings Bank (the
"Bank") from a federal mutual savings bank to a federal stock savings bank and
the issuance of the Bank's capital stock to HopFed Bancorp, Inc. (the
"Company"). The conversion of the Bank, the acquisition of all of the
outstanding capital stock of the Bank by the Company and the issuance and sale
of the Common Stock are collectively referred to herein as the "Conversion." In
March 2001, the Bank changed its name to Hopkinsville Federal Bank.
HOPFED BANCORP, INC.
HopFed Bancorp, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of
Delaware in May 1997 at the direction of the Board of Directors of the Bank for
the purpose of serving as a savings and loan holding company of the Bank upon
the acquisition of all of the capital stock issued by the Bank in the
Conversion. The Company's assets primarily consist of the outstanding capital
stock of the Bank and a portion of the net proceeds of the Conversion. The
Company's principal business is overseeing the business of the Bank. The Company
has registered with the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") as a savings and
loan holding company. See "Regulation - Regulation of the Company."
As a holding company, the Company has greater flexibility than the Bank to
diversify its business activities through existing or newly formed subsidiaries
or through acquisition or merger with other financial institutions, although the
Company currently does not have any plans, agreements, arrangements or
understandings with respect to any such acquisitions or mergers. The Company is
classified as a unitary savings and loan holding company and is subject to
regulation by the OTS.
The Company's executive offices are located at 2700 Fort Campbell
Boulevard, Hopkinsville, Kentucky 42240, and its main telephone number is (270)
885-1171.
HOPKINSVILLE FEDERAL BANK
The Bank is a federally chartered stock savings bank headquartered in
Hopkinsville, Kentucky, with branch offices in Hopkinsville, Murray, Cadiz and
Elkton, Kentucky. The Bank was incorporated by the Commonwealth of Kentucky in
1879 under the name Hopkinsville Building and Loan Association. In 1940, the
Bank converted to a federal mutual savings association and received federal
insurance of its deposit accounts. In 1983, the Bank became a federal mutual
savings bank and adopted its current corporate title.
The business of the Bank primarily consists of attracting deposits from the
general public and investing such deposits in loans secured by single family
residential real estate and investment securities, including U.S. Government and
agency securities and mortgage-backed securities. The Bank also originates
single-family residential/construction loans and multi-family and commercial
real estate loans, as well as loans secured by deposits, other consumer loans
and commercial loans. The Bank emphasizes the origination of residential real
estate loans with adjustable interest rates and other assets which are
responsive to changes in interest rates and allow the Bank to more closely match
the interest rate maturation of its assets and liabilities.
The primary market area of the Bank consists of the adjacent counties of
Calloway, Christian, Todd and Trigg located in southwestern Kentucky.
STOCK REPURCHASES
On September 20, 2000, the Company announced that its Board of Directors
had approved the repurchase of up to 200,000 shares of its common stock. The
stock repurchase program was completed in February 2001. On March 26, 2001, the
Company announced that its Board of Directors had approved the repurchase of an
additional 300,000 shares. The purchases are to be made from time to time on the
Nasdaq Stock Market at prices prevailing on that market or in privately
negotiated transactions at management's discretion, depending on market
conditions, price of the Company's common stock, corporate cash requirements and
other factors.

Scheduled contractual principal repayments of loans do not reflect the
actual life of such assets. The average life of loans is substantially less than
their contractual terms because of prepayments. In addition, due-on-sale clauses
on loans generally give the lender 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 when current mortgage loan market rates are
substantially higher than rates on existing mortgage loans and, conversely,
decrease when current mortgage loan market rates are substantially lower than
rates on existing mortgage loans.
Originations, Purchases and Sales of Loans. The Bank generally has
authority to originate and purchase loans secured by real estate located
throughout the United States. Consistent with its emphasis on being a
community-oriented financial institution, the Bank conducts substantially all of
its lending activities in its market area.
The following table sets forth certain information with respect to loan
origination activity for the periods indicated. The Bank has not purchased or
sold any loans in the periods presented.

Loan originations are derived from a number of sources, including existing
customers, referrals by real estate agents, depositors and borrowers and
advertising, as well as walk-in customers. Solicitation programs consist of
advertisements in local media, in addition to occasional participation in
various community organizations and events. Real estate loans are originated by
the Bank's loan personnel. All of the loan personnel are salaried, and are not
compensated on a commission basis for loans originated. Loan applications are
accepted at any of the Bank's branches.
5
Loan Underwriting Policies. Lending activities are subject to written,
non-discriminatory underwriting standards and to loan origination procedures
prescribed by the Board of Directors and its management. Detailed loan
applications are obtained to determine the ability of borrowers to repay, and
the more significant items on these applications are verified through the use of
credit reports, financial statements and confirmations. All loans must be
reviewed by the loan committee, which is comprised of lending officers and
branch managers. Exceptions to the underwriting standards must be approved by
the loan committee. In addition, the full Board of Directors reviews all loans
on a monthly basis.
Generally, upon receipt of a loan application from a prospective borrower,
a credit report and verifications are ordered to confirm specific information
relating to the loan applicant's employment, income and credit standing. If a
proposed loan is to be secured by a mortgage on real estate, an appraisal of the
real estate is undertaken by an appraiser approved by the Board of Directors and
licensed or certified (as necessary) by the Commonwealth of Kentucky. In the
case of one-to-four family residential mortgage loans, except when the Bank
becomes aware of a particular risk of environmental contamination, the Bank
generally does not obtain a formal environmental report on the real estate at
the time a loan is made. A formal environmental report may be required in
connection with nonresidential real estate loans.
It is the Bank's policy to record a lien on the real estate securing a loan
and to obtain a title opinion from Kentucky counsel which provides that the
property is free of prior encumbrances and other possible title defects.
Borrowers must also obtain hazard insurance policies prior to closing and, when
the property is in a flood hazard area, pay flood insurance policy premiums.
Applications for real estate loans are underwritten and closed in
accordance with the Bank's own lending guidelines, which generally do not
conform to Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") and Federal National
Mortgage Association ("FNMA") guidelines. Although such loans may not be readily
saleable in the secondary market, management believes that, if necessary, such
loans may be sold to private investors.
The Bank is permitted to lend up to 100% of the appraised value of the real
property securing a mortgage loan. The Bank is required by federal regulations
to obtain private mortgage insurance on that portion of the principal amount of
any loan that is greater than 90% of the appraised value of the property. Under
its lending policies, the Bank will originate a one-to-four family residential
mortgage loan for owner-occupied property with a loan-to-value ratio of up to
95%. For residential properties that are not owner-occupied, the Bank generally
does not lend more than 80% of the appraised value. For all residential mortgage
loans, the Bank may increase its lending level on a case-by-case basis, provided
that the excess amount is insured with private mortgage insurance.
Under applicable law, with certain limited exceptions, loans and extensions
of credit outstanding by a savings institution to a person at one time shall not
exceed 15% of the institution's unimpaired capital and surplus. Loans and
extensions of credit fully secured by readily marketable collateral may comprise
an additional 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus. Applicable law additionally
authorizes savings institutions to make loans to one borrower, for any purpose,
in an amount not to exceed the lesser of $30.0 million or 30% of unimpaired
capital and surplus to develop residential housing, provided certain
requirements are satisfied. Under these limits, the Bank's loans to one borrower
were limited to $6.7 million at December 31, 2000. At that date, the Bank had no
lending relationships in excess of the loans-to-one-borrower limit. At December
31, 2000, the Bank's largest lending relationship was $2.8 million. The loans
are to a local real estate developer and his business associate and are
primarily for the development of apartments, the purchase of lots for
residential construction, and construction of one-to-four residential housing.
All loans within this relationship were current and performing in accordance
with their terms at December 31, 2000.
Interest rates charged by the Bank on loans are affected principally by
competitive factors, the demand for such loans and the supply of funds available
for lending purposes. These factors are, in turn, affected by general economic
conditions, monetary policies of the federal government, including the Federal
Reserve Board, legislative tax policies and government budgetary matters.
One-to-four Family Residential Lending. The Bank historically has been and
continues to be an originator of one-to-four family residential real estate
loans in its market area. At December 31, 2000, one-to-four family residential
mortgage loans, totaled approximately $93.1 million, or 71.1% of the Bank's loan
portfolio. All loans originated by the Bank are maintained in its portfolio
rather than sold in the secondary market.
6
The Bank primarily originates residential mortgage loans with adjustable
rates. As of December 31, 2000, 80.2% of one-to-four family mortgage loans in
the Bank's loan portfolio carried adjustable rates. Such loans are primarily for
terms of 25 years, although the Bank does occasionally originate adjustable rate
mortgages for 15, 20 and 30 year terms, in each case amortized on a monthly
basis with principal and interest due each month. The interest rates on these
mortgages are adjusted once per year, with a maximum adjustment of 1% per
adjustment period and a maximum aggregate adjustment of 5% over the life of the
loan. A borrower may also obtain a loan in which the maximum annual adjustment
is 0.5% with a higher initial rate. Prior to August 1, 1997, rate adjustments on
the Bank's adjustable rate loans were indexed to a rate which adjusted annually
based upon changes in an index based on the National Monthly Median Cost of
Funds, plus a margin of 2.75%. Because the National Monthly Median Cost of Funds
is a lagging index, which results in rates changing at a slower pace than rates
generally in the marketplace, the Bank has changed to a one-year Treasury bill
constant maturity, which the Bank believes reflects more current market
information and thus allows the Bank to react more quickly to changes in the
interest rate environment. The adjustable rate mortgage loans offered by the
Bank also provide for initial rates of interest below the rates that would
prevail when the index used for repricing is applied. Such initial rates, also
referred to as "teaser rates," often reflect a discount from the prevailing rate
greater than the 1.0% maximum adjustment allowed each year. As a result, the
Bank may not be able to restore the interest rate of a loan with a teaser rate
to its otherwise initial loan rate until at least the second adjustment period
that occurs at the beginning of the third year of the loan. Further, in a rising
interest rate environment, the Bank may not be able to adjust the interest rate
of the loan to the prevailing market rate until an even later period because of
the combination of the teaser discount and the 1% limitation on annual
adjustments.
The retention of adjustable rate loans in the Bank's portfolio helps reduce
the Bank's exposure to increases in prevailing market interest rates. However,
there are unquantifiable credit risks resulting from potential increases in
costs to borrowers in the event of upward repricing of adjustable-rate loans. It
is possible that during periods of rising interest rates, the risk of default on
adjustable rate loans may increase due to increases in interest costs to
borrowers. Further, although adjustable rate loans allow the Bank to increase
the sensitivity of its interest-earning assets to changes in interest rates, the
extent of this interest sensitivity is limited by the initial fixed-rate period
before the first adjustment and the lifetime interest rate adjustment
limitations. This risk is heightened by the Bank's practice of offering its
adjustable rate mortgages with a discount to its initial interest rate that is
greater than the annual increase in interest rates allowed under the terms of
the loan. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that yields on the Bank's
adjustable rate loans will fully adjust to compensate for increases in the
Bank's cost of funds. Finally, adjustable rate loans increase the Bank's
exposure to decreases in prevailing market interest rates, although the 1%
limitation on annual decreases in the loans' interest rates tend to offset this
effect.
The Bank also originates, to a limited extent, fixed-rate loans for terms
of 15 years. Such loans are secured by first mortgages on one-to-four family,
owner-occupied residential real property located in the Bank's market area.
Because of the Bank's policy to mitigate its exposure to interest rate risk
through the use of adjustable rate rather than fixed rate products, the Bank
does not emphasize fixed-rate mortgage loans. At December 31, 2000, only $18.5
million, or 14.1% of the Bank's loan portfolio, consisted of fixed-rate mortgage
loans. To further reduce its interest rate risk associated with such loans, the
Bank may rely upon FHLB advances with similar maturities to fund such loans. See
"-- Deposit Activity and Other Sources of Funds -- Borrowing."
Neither the fixed rate or the adjustable rate residential mortgage loans of
the Bank are originated in conformity with secondary market guidelines issued by
FHLMC or FNMA. As a result, such loans may not be readily saleable in the
secondary market to institutional purchasers. However, such loans may still be
sold to private investors whose investment strategies do not depend upon loans
that satisfy FHLMC or FNMA criteria. Further, given its high liquidity, the Bank
does not currently view loan sales as a necessary funding source.
Construction Lending. The Bank engages in construction lending involving
loans to individuals for construction of one-to four- family residential housing
located within the Bank's market area, with such loans converting to permanent
financing upon completion of construction. Such loans are generally made to
individuals for construction primarily in established subdivisions within the
Bank's market area. The Bank mitigates its risk with construction loans by
imposing a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 95% for homes that will be
owner-occupied and 80% for homes being built on a speculative basis. At December
31, 2000, the Bank's loan portfolio included $5.7 million of loans secured by
properties under construction, including construction/permanent loans structured
to become permanent loans upon the completion of construction and interim
construction loans structured to be repaid in full upon completion of
construction and receipt of permanent financing.
7
The Bank also makes loans to qualified builders for the construction of
one-to-four family residential housing located in established subdivisions in
the Bank's market area. Because such homes are intended for resale, such loans
are generally not converted to permanent financing at the Bank. All construction
loans are secured by a first lien on the property under construction.
Loan proceeds are disbursed in increments as construction progresses and as
inspections warrant. Construction/permanent loans may have adjustable or fixed
interest rates and are underwritten in accordance with the same terms and
requirements as the Bank's permanent mortgages. Such loans generally provide for
disbursement in stages during a construction period of up to six months, during
which period the borrower is required to make payments of interest only. The
permanent loans are typically 30-year adjustable rate loans, with the same terms
and conditions otherwise offered by the Bank. Monthly payments of principal and
interest commence the month following the date the loan is converted to
permanent financing. Borrowers must satisfy all credit requirements that would
apply to the Bank's permanent mortgage loan financing prior to receiving
construction financing for the subject property.
Construction financing generally is considered to involve a higher degree
of risk of loss than long-term financing on improved, occupied real estate. Risk
of loss on a construction loan is dependent largely upon the accuracy of the
initial estimate of the property's value at completion of construction or
development and the estimated cost (including interest) of construction. During
the construction phase, a number of factors could result in delays and cost
overruns. If the estimate of construction costs proves to be inaccurate, the
Bank may be confronted at or prior to the maturity of the loan, with a project
having a value which is insufficient to assure full repayment. The ability of a
developer to sell developed lots or completed dwelling units will depend on,
among other things, demand, pricing, availability of comparable properties and
economic conditions. The Bank has sought to minimize this risk by limiting
construction lending to qualified borrowers in the Bank's market area, by
requiring the involvement of qualified builders, and by limiting the aggregate
amount of outstanding construction loans.
Multi-Family Residential and Non-Residential Real Estate Lending. The
Bank's multi-family residential loan portfolio consists of adjustable rate loans
secured by real estate. At December 31, 2000, the Bank had $2.8 million of
multi-family residential loans, which amounted to 2.2% of the Bank's loan
portfolio at such date. The Bank's non-residential real estate portfolio
generally consists of adjustable rate loans secured by first mortgages on
residential lots and rental property. In each case, such property is located in
the Bank's market area. At December 31, 2000, the Bank had approximately $21.7
million of such loans, which comprised 16.5% of its loan portfolio. Multi-family
residential real estate loans are underwritten with loan-to-value ratios up to
80% of the appraised value of the property. Non-residential real estate loans
are underwritten with loan-to-value ratios up to 65% of the appraised value for
raw land and 75% for land development loans.
Multi-family residential and non-residential real estate lending entails
significant additional risks as compared with one-to-four family residential
property lending. Multi-family residential and commercial real estate loans
typically involve larger loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related
borrowers. The payment experience on such loans typically is dependent on the
successful operation of the real estate project, retail establishment or
business. These risks can be significantly impacted by supply and demand
conditions in the market for the office, retail and residential space, and, as
such, may be subject to a greater extent to adverse conditions in the economy
generally. To minimize these risks, the Bank generally limits itself to its
market area or to borrowers with which it has prior experience or who are
otherwise known to the Bank. It has been the Bank's policy to obtain annual
financial statements of the business of the borrower or the project for which
multi-family residential real estate or commercial real estate loans are made.
Consumer Lending. The consumer loans currently in the Bank's loan portfolio
consist of loans secured by savings deposits and other consumer loans. Savings
deposit loans are usually made for up to 90% of the depositor's savings account
balance. The interest rate is approximately 2.0% above the rate paid on such
deposit account serving as collateral, and the account must be pledged as
collateral to secure the loan. Interest generally is billed on a quarterly
basis. At December 31, 2000, loans on deposit accounts totaled $2.7 million, or
2.1% of the Bank's loan portfolio. Other consumer loans include automobile
loans, the amount and terms of which are determined by the loan committee, and
home equity and home improvement loans, which are made for up to 95% of the
value of the property but require private mortgage insurance on 100% of the
value of the property.
Consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than do residential mortgage
loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans that are unsecured or are

any repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an
adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a result of the
greater likelihood of damage, loss or depreciation. In addition, consumer loan
collections are dependent on the borrower's continuing financial stability, and
therefore are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances.
Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including
bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on
such loans. At December 31, 2000, there were no consumer loans delinquent 90
days or more. There can be no assurance that delinquencies will not increase in
the future, particularly in light of the Bank's decision to increase its efforts
to originate a higher volume and greater variety of consumer loans.
Commercial Lending. The Bank originates commercial loans on a secured and,
to a lesser extent, unsecured basis. At December 31, 2000, the Bank's commercial
loans amounted to $946,000, or less than 1% of the Bank's loan portfolio. The
Bank's commercial loans generally are secured by corporate assets. In addition,
the Bank generally obtains guarantees from the principals of the borrower with
respect to all commercial loans.
NON-PERFORMING LOANS AND OTHER PROBLEM ASSETS
The Bank's non-performing loans totaled 0.34% of total loans at December
31, 2000. Loans are placed on a non-accrual status when the loan is past due in
excess of 90 days and collection of principal and interest is doubtful. The Bank
places a high priority on contacting customers by telephone as a primary method
of determining the status of delinquent loans and the action necessary to
resolve any payment problem. The Bank's management performs quality reviews of
problem assets to determine the necessity of establishing additional loss
reserves.
Real estate acquired by the Bank as a result of foreclosure is classified
as real estate owned until such time as it is sold. The Bank generally tries to
sell the property at a price no less than its net book value, however, it will
consider slight discounts to the appraised value to expedite the return of the
funds to an earning status. When such property is acquired, it is recorded at
its fair value less estimated costs of sale. Any required write-down of the loan
to its appraised fair market value upon foreclosure is charged against the
allowance for loan losses. Subsequent to foreclosure, in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, a valuation allowance is established
if the carrying value of the property exceeds its fair value net of related
selling expenses.
The following table sets forth information with respect to the Bank's
non-performing assets at the dates indicated. No loans were recorded as
restructured loans within the meaning of SFAS No. 15 at the dates indicated.

At December 31, 2000, the Bank had no loans outstanding which were
classified as nonaccrual, 90 days past due or restructured but where known
information about possible credit problems of borrowers caused management to
have serious concerns as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present
loan repayment terms and may result in disclosure as nonaccrual, 90 days past
due or restructured. Also, the Bank had impaired loans, as defined by SFAS
114/118, totaling $434,000 at December 31, 2000. As such, the impact of adopting
these statements was not significant to the Bank.
Federal regulations require savings institutions to classify their assets
on the basis of quality on a regular basis. An asset meeting one of the
classification definitions set forth below may be classified and still be a
performing loan. An asset is classified as substandard if it is determined to be
inadequately protected by the current retained earnings and paying capacity of
the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. An asset is classified as
doubtful if full collection is highly questionable or improbable. An asset is
classified as loss if it is considered uncollectible, even if a partial recovery
could be expected in the future. The regulations also provide for a special
mention designation, described as assets which do not currently expose a savings
institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification but do
possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving management's close
attention. Such assets designated as special mention may include non-performing
loans consistent with the above definition. Assets classified as substandard or
doubtful require a savings institution to establish general allowances for loan
losses. If an asset or portion thereof is classified loss, a savings institution
must either establish a specific allowance for loss in the amount of the portion
of the asset-classified loss, or charge off such amount. Federal examiners may
disagree with a savings institution's classifications. If a savings institution
does not agree with an examiner's classification of an asset, it may appeal this
determination to the OTS Regional Director. The Bank regularly reviews its
assets to determine whether any assets require classification or
re-classification. At December 31, 2000, the Bank had $9,000 in assets
classified as special mention, $434,000 in assets classified as substandard, no
assets classified as doubtful and no assets classified as loss. Special mention
assets consist primarily of residential real estate loans secured by first
mortgages. This classification is primarily used by management as a "watch list"
to monitor loans that exhibit any potential deviation in performance from the
contractual terms of the loan.
Allowance for Loan Losses. In originating loans, the Bank recognizes that
credit losses will be experienced and that the risk of loss will vary with,
among other things, the type of loan being made, the creditworthiness of the
borrower over the term of the loan, general economic conditions and, in the case
of a secured loan, the quality of the security for the loan. It is management's
policy to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses based on, among other
things, the Bank's and the industry's historical loan loss experience,
evaluation of economic conditions, regular reviews of delinquencies and loan
portfolio quality and evolving standards imposed by federal bank examiners. The
Bank increases its allowance for loan losses by charging provisions for possible
loan losses against the Bank's income.
Management will continue to actively monitor the Bank's asset quality and
allowance for loan losses. Management will charge off loans and properties
acquired in settlement of loans against the allowances for losses on such loans
and such properties when appropriate and will provide specific loss allowances
when necessary. Although management believes it uses the best information
available to make determinations with respect to the allowances for losses and
believes such allowances are adequate, future adjustments may be necessary if
economic conditions differ substantially from the economic conditions in the
assumptions used in making the initial determinations.
The Bank's methodology for establishing the allowance for loan losses takes
into consideration probable losses that have been identified in connection with
specific assets as well as losses that have not been identified but can be
expected to occur. Management conducts regular reviews of the Bank's assets and
evaluates the need to establish allowances on the basis of this review.
Allowances are established by the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis based
on an assessment of risk in the Bank's assets taking into consideration the
composition and quality of the portfolio, delinquency trends, current charge-off
and loss experience, loan concentrations, the state of the real estate market,
regulatory reviews conducted in the regulatory examination process and economic
conditions generally. Specific reserves will be provided for individual assets,
or portions of assets, when ultimate collection is considered improbable by
management based on the current payment status of the assets and the fair value
of the security. At the date of foreclosure or other repossession, the Bank
would transfer the property to real estate acquired in settlement of loans
initially at the lower of cost or estimated fair value and subsequently at the
lower of book value or fair value less estimated selling costs. Any portion of
the outstanding loan balance in excess of fair value less estimated selling
costs would be charged off against the allowance for loan losses. If, upon
ultimate
10
disposition of the property, net sales proceeds exceed the net carrying value of
the property, a gain on sale of real estate would be recorded.
Banking regulatory agencies, including the OTS, have adopted a policy
statement regarding maintenance of an adequate allowance for loan and lease
losses and an effective loan review system. This policy includes an arithmetic
formula for determining the reasonableness of an institution's allowance for
loan loss estimate compared to the average loss experience of the industry as a
whole. Examiners will review an institution's allowance for loan losses and
compare it against the sum of: (i) 50% of the portfolio that is classified
doubtful; (ii) 15% of the portfolio that is classified as substandard; and (iii)
for the portions of the portfolio that have not been classified (including those
loans designated as special mention), estimated credit losses over the upcoming
12 months given the facts and circumstances as of the evaluation date. This
amount is considered neither a "floor" nor a "safe harbor" of the level of
allowance for loan losses an institution should maintain, but examiners will
view a shortfall relative to the amount as an indication that they should review
management's policy on allocating these allowances to determine whether it is
reasonable based on all relevant factors.
The following table sets forth an analysis of the Bank's allowance for loan
losses for the periods indicated.

The following table sets forth the breakdown of the allowance for loan

future losses and does not restrict the use of the allowance to absorb losses in
any category.

INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES
The Bank makes investments in order to maintain the levels of liquid assets
required by regulatory authorities and manage cash flow, diversify its assets,
obtain yield and to satisfy certain requirements for favorable tax treatment.
The investment activities of the Company and the Bank consist primarily of
investments in Agency Securities and Mortgage-Backed Securities. Typical
investments include federally sponsored agency mortgage pass-through and
federally sponsored agency and mortgage-related securities. Investment and
aggregate investment limitations and credit quality parameters of each class of
investment are prescribed in the Bank's investment policy. The Company and the
Bank perform analyses on mortgage-related securities prior to purchase and on an
ongoing basis to determine the impact on earnings and market value under various
interest rate and prepayment conditions. Securities purchases must be approved
by the Bank's President. The Board of Directors reviews all securities
transactions on a monthly basis.
The principal objective of the investment policy is to earn as high a rate
of return as possible, but to consider also financial or credit risk, liquidity
risk and interest rate risk.
At December 31, 2000, securities with an amortized cost of $84.2 million
and an approximate market value of $84.3 million were classified as available
for sale. Management presently does not intend to sell such securities and,
based on the current liquidity level and the access to borrowings through the
FHLB of Cincinnati, management currently does not anticipate that the Company or
the Bank will be placed in a position of having to sell securities with material
unrealized losses.
Securities designated as "held to maturity" are those assets which the
Company or the Bank has both the ability and the intent to hold to maturity.
Upon acquisition, securities are classified as to the Company's or the Bank's
intent, and a sale would only be affected due to deteriorating investment
quality. The held to maturity investment portfolio is not used for speculative
purposes and is carried at amortized cost. In the event securities are sold from
this portfolio for other than credit quality reasons, all securities within the
investment portfolio with matching characteristics may be reclassified as assets
available for sale. Securities designated as "available for sale" are those
assets which the Company or the Bank may not hold to maturity and thus are
carried at market value with unrealized gains or losses, net of tax effect,
recognized in stockholders' equity.
12
Mortgage-Backed and Related Securities. Mortgage-backed securities
represent a participation interest in a pool of one-to-four family or
multi-family mortgages, the principal and interest payments on which are passed
from the mortgage originators through intermediaries that pool and repackage the
participation interest in the form of securities to investors such as the Bank.
Such intermediaries may include quasi-governmental agencies such as FHLMC, FNMA
and the Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA") which guarantee the
payment of principal and interest to investors. Of the $33.6 million
mortgage-backed security portfolio at December 31, 2000, approximately $17.5
million were originated through GNMA, approximately $8.9 million were originated
through FNMA and approximately $7.2 million were originated through FHLMC.
Mortgage-backed securities generally increase the quality of the assets by
virtue of the guarantees that back them, are more liquid than individual
mortgage loans and may be used to collateralize borrowings or other obligations
of the Bank.
Mortgage-backed securities typically are issued with stated principal
amounts and the securities are backed by pools of mortgages that have loans with
interest rates that are within a range and have similar maturities. The
underlying pool of mortgages can be composed of either fixed-rate or
adjustable-rate mortgage loans. Mortgage-backed securities generally are
referred to as mortgage participation certificates or pass-through certificates.
As a result, the interest rate risk characteristics of the underlying pool of
mortgages, i.e., fixed-rate or adjustable-rate, as well as prepayment risk, are
passed on to the certificate holder. The life of a mortgage-backed pass-through
security is equal to the life of the underlying mortgages.
The actual maturity of a mortgage-backed security varies, depending on when
the mortgagors prepay or repay the underlying mortgages. Prepayments of the
underlying mortgages may shorten the life of the investment, thereby adversely
affecting its yield to maturity and the related market value of the
mortgage-backed security. The yield is based upon the interest income and the
amortization of the premium or accretion of the discount related to the
mortgage-backed security. Premiums and discounts on mortgage-backed securities
are amortized or accreted over the estimated term of the securities using a
level yield method. The prepayment assumptions used to determine the
amortization period for premiums and discounts can significantly affect the
yield of the mortgage-backed security, and these assumptions are reviewed
periodically to reflect the actual prepayment. The actual prepayments of the
underlying mortgages depend on many factors, including the type of mortgage, the
coupon rate, the age of the mortgages, the geographical location of the
underlying real estate collateralizing the mortgages and general levels of
market interest rates. The difference between the interest rates on the
underlying mortgages and the prevailing mortgage interest rates is an important
determinant in the rate of prepayments. During periods of falling mortgage
interest rates, prepayments generally increase, and, conversely, during periods
of rising mortgage interest rates, prepayments generally decrease. If the coupon
rate of the underlying mortgage significantly exceeds the prevailing market
interest rates offered for mortgage loans, refinancing generally increases and
accelerates the prepayment of the underlying mortgages. Prepayment experience is
more difficult to estimate for adjustable-rate mortgage-backed securities.

securities at the dates indicated.

DEPOSIT ACTIVITY AND OTHER SOURCES OF FUNDS
GENERAL. Deposits are the primary source of the Bank's funds for lending,
investment activities and general operational purposes. In addition to deposits,
the Bank derives funds from loan principal and interest repayments, maturities
of investment securities and mortgage-backed securities and interest payments
thereon. Although loan repayments are a relatively stable source of funds,
deposit inflows and outflows are significantly influenced by general interest
rates and money market conditions. Borrowings may be used on a short-term basis
to compensate for reductions in the availability of funds, or on a longer term
basis for general corporate purposes. The Bank has access to borrow from the
FHLB of Cincinnati, and the Bank will continue to have access to FHLB of
Cincinnati advances. The Bank may rely upon retail deposits rather than
borrowings as its primary source of funding for future asset growth.
DEPOSITS. The Bank attracts deposits principally from within its market
area by offering competitive rates on its deposit instruments, including money
market accounts, passbook savings accounts, Individual Retirement Accounts, and
certificates of deposit which range in maturity from three months to five years.
Deposit terms vary according to the minimum balance required, the length of time
the funds must remain on deposit and the interest rate. Maturities, terms,
service fees and withdrawal penalties for its deposit accounts are established
by the Bank on a periodic basis. The Bank reviews its deposit mix and pricing on
a weekly basis. In determining the characteristics of its deposit accounts, the
Bank considers the rates offered by competing institutions, lending and
liquidity requirements, growth goals and federal regulations. The Bank does not
accept brokered deposits.
The Bank attempts to compete for deposits with other institutions in its
market area by offering competitively priced deposit instruments that are
tailored to the needs of its customers. Additionally, the Bank seeks to meet
customers' needs by providing convenient customer service to the community.
Substantially all of the Bank's depositors are Kentucky residents who reside in
the Bank's market area.
Savings deposits in the Bank at December 31, 2000 were represented by the

million of deposits with balances of $100,000 or more, compared to $10.4 million
and $7.2 million at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Such time deposits
may be risky because their continued presence in the Bank is dependent partially
upon the rates paid by the Bank rather than any customer relationship and,
therefore, may be withdrawn upon maturity if another institution offers higher
interest rates. The Bank may be required to resort to other funding sources such
as borrowings or sales of its securities held available for sale if the Bank
believes that increasing its rates to maintain such deposits would adversely
affect its operating results. At this time, the Bank does not believe that it
will need to significantly increase its deposit rates to maintain such

In the unlikely event the Bank is liquidated after the Conversion,
depositors will be entitled to full payment of their deposit accounts prior to
any payment being made to the sole stockholder of the Bank, which is the
Company.
BORROWINGS. Savings deposits historically have been the primary source of
funds for the Bank's lending, investments and general operating activities. The
Bank is authorized, however, to use advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati to
supplement its supply of lendable funds and to meet deposit withdrawal
requirements. The FHLB of Cincinnati functions as a central reserve bank
providing credit for savings institutions and certain other member financial
institutions. As a member of the FHLB System, the Bank is required to own stock
in the FHLB of Cincinnati and is authorized to apply for advances. Advances are
pursuant to several different programs, each of which has its own interest rate
and range of maturities. The Bank has entered into a Cash Management Advance
program with FHLB. See Note 6 of Notes to Financial Statements. Advances from
the FHLB of Cincinnati were $17.0 million at December 31, 2000 and are secured
by FHLB investment securities.
SUBSIDIARY ACTIVITIES
As a federally chartered savings bank, the Bank is permitted to invest an
amount equal to 2% of its assets in subsidiaries, with an additional investment
of 1% of assets where such investment serves primarily community, inner-city and
community development purposes. The Bank does not have any subsidiaries.
17
COMPETITION
The Bank faces significant competition both in originating mortgage and
other loans and in attracting deposits. The Bank competes for loans principally
on the basis of interest rates, the types of loans it originates, the deposit
products it offers and the quality of services it provides to borrowers. The
Bank also competes by offering products which are tailored to the local
community. Its competition in originating real estate loans comes primarily from
other savings institutions, commercial banks and mortgage bankers making loans
secured by real estate located in the Bank's market area. Commercial banks,
credit unions and finance companies provide vigorous competition in consumer
lending. Competition may increase as a result of the continuing reduction of
restrictions on the interstate operations of financial institutions.
The Bank attracts its deposits through its five offices primarily from the
local community. Consequently, competition for deposits is principally from
other savings institutions, commercial banks and brokers in the local community
as well as from credit unions. The Bank competes for deposits and loans by
offering what it believes to be a variety of deposit accounts at competitive
rates, convenient business hours, a commitment to outstanding customer service
and a well-trained staff. The Bank believes it has developed strong
relationships with local realtors and the community in general.
The Bank is a community and retail-oriented financial institution.
Management considers the Bank's branch network and reputation for financial
strength and quality customer service as its major competitive advantage in
attracting and retaining customers in its market area. A number of the Bank's
competitors have been acquired by statewide/nationwide banking organizations.
While the Bank is subject to competition from other financial institutions which
may have greater financial and marketing resources, management believes the Bank
benefits by its community orientation and its long-standing relationship with
many of its customers.
EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 2000, the Company and the Bank had 30 full-time and 6
part-time employees, none of whom were represented by a collective bargaining
agreement. Management considers the Bank's relationships with its employees to
be good.
REGULATION
GENERAL. The Bank is chartered as a federal savings bank under the Home
Owners' Loan Act, as amended (the "HOLA"), which is implemented by regulations
adopted and administered by the OTS. As a federal savings bank, the Bank is
subject to regulation, supervision and regular examination by the OTS. The OTS
also has extensive enforcement authority over all savings institutions and their
holding companies, including the Bank and the Company. Federal banking laws and
regulations control, among other things, the Bank's required reserves,
investments, loans, mergers and consolidations, payment of dividends and other
aspects of the Bank's operations. The deposits of the Bank are insured by the
SAIF administered by the FDIC to the maximum extent provided by law. In
addition, the FDIC has certain regulatory and examination authority over
OTS-regulated savings institutions and may recommend enforcement actions against
savings institutions to the OTS. The supervision and regulation of the Bank is
intended primarily for the protection of the deposit insurance fund and the
Bank's depositors rather than for holders of the Company's stock or for the
Company as the holder of the stock of the Bank.
As a savings and loan holding company, the Company is registered with the
OTS and subject to OTS regulation and supervision under the HOLA. The Company
also is required to file certain reports with, and otherwise comply with the
rules and regulations of, the Commission under the federal securities laws.
The following discussion is intended to be a summary of certain statutes,
rules and regulations affecting the Bank and the Company. A number of other
statutes and regulations have an impact on their operations. The following
summary of applicable statutes and regulations does not purport to be complete
and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such statutes and regulations.
REGULATORY CAPITAL. The OTS' capital adequacy regulations require savings
institutions such as the Bank to meet three minimum capital standards: a "core"
capital requirement of 4% of adjusted total assets (or 3% if the institution is
rated Composite 1 under the CAMELS examination rating system), a "tangible"
capital requirement of 1.5% of adjusted total assets, and a "risk-based" capital
requirement of 8% of total risk-based capital to total risk-
18
weighted assets. In addition, the OTS has adopted regulations imposing certain
restrictions on savings institutions that have a total risk-based capital ratio
of less than 8%, a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of less than
4% or a ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets of less than 4%. See Note 13 of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
PROMPT CORRECTIVE REGULATORY ACTION. Under the OTS prompt corrective action
regulations, the federal banking regulators are required to take prompt
corrective action in respect of depository institutions that do not meet certain
minimum capital requirements, including a leverage limit and a risk-based
capital requirement. All institutions, regardless of their capital levels, are
restricted from making any capital distribution or paying any management fees
that would cause the institution to become undercapitalized. The federal banking
regulators, including the OTS, have issued regulations that classify insured
depository institutions by capital levels and provide that the applicable agency
will take various prompt corrective actions to resolve the problems of any
institution that fails to satisfy the capital standards.
Under the joint prompt corrective action regulations, a "well-capitalized"
institution is one that is not subject to any regulatory order or directive to
meet any specific capital level and that has or exceeds the following capital
levels: a total risk-based capital ratio of 10%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital
ratio of 6%, and a ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets ("leverage ratio") of
5%. An "adequately capitalized" institution is one that does not qualify as
"well capitalized" but meets or exceeds the following capital requirements: a
total risk-based capital of 8%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4%, and a
leverage ratio of either (i) 4% or (ii) 3% if the institution has the highest
composite examination rating. An institution not meeting these criteria is
treated as "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized," or "critically
undercapitalized" depending on the extent to which its capital levels are below
these standards. An institution that fails within any of the three
"undercapitalized" categories will be subject to certain severe regulatory
sanctions required by OTS regulations. As of December 31, 2000, the Bank was
"well-capitalized" as defined by the regulations.
QUALIFIED THRIFT LENDER TEST. The HOLA and OTS regulations require all
savings institutions to satisfy one of two Qualified Thrift Lender ("QTL") tests
or to suffer a number of sanctions, including restrictions on activities. A
savings institution must maintain its status as a QTL on a monthly basis in at
least nine out of every 12 months. An initial failure to qualify as a QTL
results in a number of sanctions, including the imposition of certain operating
restrictions and a restriction on obtaining additional advances from its Federal
Home Loan Bank. If a savings institution does not requalify under the QTL test
within the three-year period after it fails the QTL test, it would be required
to terminate any activity not permissible for a national bank and repay as
promptly as possible any outstanding advances from its Federal Home Loan Bank.
In addition, the holding company of such an institution, such as the Company,
would similarly be required to register as a bank holding company with the
Federal Reserve Board. At December 31, 2000, the Bank qualified as a QTL.
LIMITATIONS ON CAPITAL DISTRIBUTIONS. OTS regulations impose limitations
upon capital distributions by savings institutions, such as cash dividends,
payments to repurchase or otherwise acquire its shares, payments to stockholders
of another institution in a cash-out merger and other distributions charged
against capital. Under the OTS capital distribution regulations, a savings
institution that (i) qualifies for expedited treatment of applications by
maintaining one of the two highest supervisory examination ratings, (ii) will be
at least adequately capitalized after the proposed capital distribution and
(iii) and is not otherwise restricted by applicable law in making capital
distributions may, without prior approval by the OTS, make capital distributions
during a calendar year equal to its net income for such year plus its retained
net income for the preceding two years. Capital distributions in excess of such
amount would require prior OTS approval.
Under OTS regulations, the Bank would not be permitted to pay dividends on
its capital stock if its regulatory capital would thereby be reduced below the
amount then required for the liquidation account established for the benefit of
certain depositors of the Bank at the time of the Conversion. In addition, under
the prompt corrective action regulations of the OTS, the Bank would be
prohibited from paying dividends if the Bank were classified as
"undercapitalized" under such rules. See "-- Prompt Corrective Regulatory
Action."
Future earnings of the Bank appropriated to bad debt reserves and deducted
for federal income tax purposes are not available for payment of dividends or
other distributions to the Company without payment of taxes at the then current
tax rate by the Bank on the amount of earnings removed from the reserves for
such distributions.
19
TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND INSIDERS. Generally, transactions between
a savings bank or its subsidiaries and its affiliates are required to be on
terms as favorable to the savings bank as transactions with non-affiliates. In
addition, certain of these transactions, such as loans to an affiliate, are
restricted to a percentage of the savings bank's capital. Affiliates of the Bank
include the Company and any company that is under common control with the Bank.
In addition, a savings bank may not lend to any affiliate engaged in activities
not permissible for a bank holding company or acquire the securities of most
affiliates. The OTS has the discretion to treat subsidiaries of savings banks as
affiliates on a case-by-case basis.
Certain transactions with directors, officers or controlling persons are
also subject to conflict of interest regulations enforced by the OTS. These
conflict of interest regulations and other statutes also impose restrictions on
loans to such persons and their related interests. Among other things, such
loans must generally be made on terms that are substantially the same as for
loans to unaffiliated individuals.
RESERVE REQUIREMENTS. Pursuant to regulations of the Federal Reserve Board
(the "FRB"), all FDIC-insured depository institutions must maintain average
daily reserves at specified levels against their transaction accounts. As of
December 31, 2000, the Bank met these reserve requirements.
LIQUIDITY REQUIREMENTS. The Bank is required by OTS regulations to maintain
an average daily balance of liquid assets. The current minimum liquid asset
ratio required by the OTS is 4% of a liquidity base as defined under OTS
regulations. The average daily liquidity ratio of the Bank for the month ended
December 31, 2000 was 58.8%.
FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK SYSTEM. The Federal Home Loan Bank System consists
of 12 district Federal Home Loan Banks subject to supervision and regulation by
the Federal Housing Finance Board ("FHFB"). The Federal Home Loan Banks provide
a central credit facility primarily for member institutions. As a member of the
FHLB, the Bank is required to acquire and hold shares of capital stock in the
FHLB in an amount at least equal to 1% of the aggregate unpaid principal of its
home mortgage loans, home purchase contracts, and similar obligations at the
beginning of each year, or 1/20 of its advances (borrowings) from the FHLB,
whichever is greater. The Bank was in compliance with this requirement, with an
investment in FHLB stock at December 31, 2000 of $2.0 million.
REGULATION OF THE COMPANY
The Company is a unitary savings and loan holding company subject to OTS
regulation, supervision and examination. In addition, the OTS has enforcement
authority over the Company and its non-savings institution subsidiaries and may
restrict or prohibit activities that are determined to represent a serious risk
to the safety, soundness or stability of the Bank or any other subsidiary
savings institution.
Under the HOLA, a savings and loan holding company is required to obtain
the prior approval of the OTS before acquiring another savings institution or
savings and loan holding company. A savings and loan holding company may not (i)
acquire, with certain exceptions, more than 5% of a non-subsidiary savings
institution or a non-subsidiary savings and loan holding company; or (ii)
acquire or retain control of a depository institution that is not insured by the
FDIC. In addition, while the Bank generally may acquire a savings institution by
merger in any state without restriction by state law, the Company could acquire
control of an additional savings institution in a state other than Kentucky only
if such acquisition is permitted under the laws of the target institution's home
state or in a supervisory acquisition of a failing institution.
As a unitary savings and loan holding company, the Company generally is not
subject to activity restrictions. If the Company were to acquire control of
another savings institution as a separate subsidiary, it would become a multiple
savings and loan holding company, and the activities of the Company and any of
its subsidiaries (other than the Bank or any other SAIF-insured savings
institution) would become subject to such restrictions unless such other
institutions each qualify as a QTL and were acquired in a supervisory
acquisition.
If the Bank fails to QTL test, the Company must obtain the approval of the
OTS prior to continuing after such failure, directly or through its other
subsidiaries, any business activity other than those approved for multiple
savings and loan holding companies or their subsidiaries. In addition, within
one year of such failure the Company would be required to register as, and would
become subject to, the restrictions applicable to the bank holding companies.
The activities authorized for a bank holding company are more limited than are
the activities authorized for a unitary or multiple savings and loan holding
company.
