effect.

----------
infringement case involving Huntington Bank and its affiliate, ebanc LLC, as

voluntarily dismissed by all parties and no litigation regarding this matter is
currently pending. Other than the Huntington Litigation and except to the
extent otherwise specifically reserved against in the Annual and Interim Company
Financials or the notes thereto, there are no causes of action pending or (to
the knowledge of the Company) threatened against the Company or the Thrift or
regulatory orders, memoranda of understanding or similar documents involving the
Company or the Thrift that are reasonably likely to have, individually or in the
aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company or the Thrift.

such reports complied in all material respects with all rules, regulations and
instructions promulgated by such agencies and did not contain any untrue
4
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Neither the Company
nor the Thrift has received a less than satisfactory rating on any regulatory
exam or has been notified by any regulator than such a rating will be assigned
or is being considered.

--------------------------
Company with respect to the conduct of its business, the Company and the Thrift

local laws, regulations, ordinances, decrees or orders of any governmental
entity, the noncompliance with which could have a material adverse effect on
their business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations. The
Company is not aware of the existence of any facts which would support the
assessment of civil money penalties against the Company or the Thrift, their
directors, officers or employees. To the knowledge of the Company, the Company
and the Thrift have in effect all permits, governmental approvals,
authorizations, certificates and licenses (the "Permits") to own, lease or
operate its assets and to carry on its business as now conducted, and to the
knowledge of the Company, there has occurred no default under any such Permit.

department or federal, state or local government or any other regulatory
authority: (i) asserting that the Company or the Thrift is not in compliance
with any law or order of such governmental or regulatory authority; (ii)
threatening to revoke any Permits; or (iii) requiring the Company or the Thrift
to enter into or consent to the issuance of a cease and desist order, formal

reserve policies, its management or the payment of dividends.

2.13. Absence of Changes. Since September 30, 2002, except as

with Investor in reliance upon Investor's representation to the Company, which

Common Stock will be acquired for investment for Investor's own account, not as
a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the immediate resale or distribution
of any part thereof, and that Investor has no present intention of selling,

within the meaning of SEC Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect.

laws and applicable regulations such Common Stock may be resold without
registration under the Act only in certain limited circumstances, including
without limitation, in compliance with the requirements of the legend described
in Section 3.7 of this Agreement. In the absence of an effective registration
statement covering the Common Stock or an available exemption from registration
under the Act, the Common Stock must be held indefinitely. Investor further

understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act, including
without limitation the Rule 144 condition that current information about the
Company be available to the public.

EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT, AND AN OPINION OF LEGAL COUNSEL
REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY IS OBTAINED TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH
REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."
