  Effective June 29, 2007, Alan W. Faigin (50), the Company&#x2019;s Secretary, General Counsel and Chief Legal Officer, and Chief Legal Officer of the Bank, was appointed interim President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank, replacing Kyle R. Walker.  It is expected that Mr. Faigin will serve in this position until he is succeeded by Carl B. Webb.  Mr. Webb is expected to become President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank upon the receipt of regulatory approval of the proposed minority investment in the Company by an investor group led by Gerald J. Ford, as previously announced by the Company on May 22, 2007, and disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 24, 2007. <br><br>Mr. Faigin first joined the Company in 1980 and has held, and currently holds, a number of director and executive officer positions at the Company and its subsidiaries.  <br><br>The employment agreement, dated April 11, 2007, between Mr. Faigin and the Company (the "Employment Agreement") will continue to govern his current employment with the Company and his new interim positions with the Bank.  The Employment Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K, dated April 11, 2007, and is incorporated herein by reference. Mr. Faigin is also party to a letter agreement with the Company pursuant to which a retention bonus of a cash amount equal to one year&#x2019;s base salary will be payable to him on April 1, 2008.  This bonus will be forfeit in the event that Mr. Faigin should voluntarily resign prior to such date.<br><br><br>In connection with the proposed minority investment transaction, a proxy statement relating to certain of the matters discussed in this report is expected to be filed with the SEC. When filed, copies of the proxy statement and other related documents may be obtained free of charge on the SEC website (www.sec.gov). THE COMPANY&#x2019;S STOCKHOLDERS ARE ADVISED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT WHEN IT BECOMES AVAILABLE, BECAUSE IT WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION. The Company, its directors, executive officers and certain members of management and employees may be considered "participants in the solicitation" of proxies from the Company&#x2019;s stockholders in connection with certain of the matters discussed in this report. Information regarding such persons and their interests in the Company is contained in the Company&#x2019;s proxy statements and annual reports on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. Stockholders and investors may obtain additional information regarding the interests of the Company and its directors and executive officers in the matters discussed in this report, which may be different than those of the Company&#x2019;s stockholders generally, by reading the proxy statement and other relevant documents regarding the matters discussed in this report, which are expected to be filed with the SEC.<br>

Mr. Faigin is also party to a letter agreement with the Company pursuant to which a retention bonus of a cash amount equal to one year's base salary will be payable to him on April 1, 2008.  This bonus will be forfeit in the event that Mr. Faigin should voluntarily resign prior to such date.
