("Acquiror") seeks to acquire 269,000 shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of Xxxxxxxxxx West Financial Group, Inc., 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx ("Xxxxxxxxxx"), which shares will represent 4.4% of a class of "voting stock" of Xxxxxxxxxx as defined under the Acquisition of Control Regulations ("Regulations") of the Office of Thrift Supervision ("Office"), 12 CFR part 574 ("Voting Stock").
	B.		Xx. Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx ("Xx. Xxxxxxx") is the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the principal shareholder of the Acquiror beneficially owning 1,265,766 shares of common stock, without par value, of Acquiror, which constitutes 73.7% of a class of the voting stock of Acquiror.
	C.		Xx. Xxxxxxx also owns 1,094,212 shares of Common Stock of Xxxxxxxxxx (some of which he acquired through Wyandotte Community Corporation of Leavenworth, Indiana, and the Xxxxxxx Family Trust), or 17.8% of Xxxxxxxxxx'x shares following the proposed acquisition of 269,000 shares by the Acquiror.  Xx. Xxxxxxx does not currently intend to purchase any more shares of Common Stock.
	D.		Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx is a director of CFFG and of Wyandotte Community Corporation of Leavenworth.  He owns 131,979 shares of Common Stock, or 2.2% of Xxxxxxxxxx'x shares following the proposed acquisition of 269,000 shares by the Acquiror.  Xx. Xxxxxx does not currently intend to purchase any more shares of Common Stock.
	E.		If Acquiror purchases the Shares, Acquiror, Xx. Xxxxxxx, and Xx.

	X.		Xxxxxxxxxx is a "savings and loan holding company," and therefore is included in the definition of "savings association" within the meaning of the Regulations.

	H.		The Regulations require a company or a person who intends to hold 10 % or more but not in excess of 25% of any class of Voting Stock of a savings association or holding company thereof and that also would possess any of the Control Factors specified in the Regulations, to file and obtain approval of an application ("Application") under the Savings and Loan Holding Company Act ("Holding Company Act"), 12 U.S.C. 1467a, or file and obtain clearance of a notice ("Notice") under the Change in Control Act ("Control Act"), 12 U.S.C. 1817(j), prior to acquiring such amount of stock and a Control Factor unless the rebuttable determination of control has been rebutted.
