Item 1. Business
BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY
On July 13, 1994, the Company consummated its public offering for 5,290,000 shares of its common stock and acquired Third Federal Bank (the Bank) as part of the Banks mutual-to-stock conversion. The Company was incorporated under Delaware law in March 1994. The Company is a savings and loan holding company and is subject to regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision (the OTS), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the FDIC) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). The Company does not transact any material business other than through its direct and indirect subsidiaries: Third Federal Bank, TF Investments Corporation, Teragon Financial Corporation, Penns Trail Development Corporation and Third Delaware Corporation. At December 31, 2004, the Company had total assets of $629 million, total liabilities of $568 million and stockholders equity of $61 million.
BUSINESS OF THE BANK
The Bank is a federally-chartered stock savings bank, which was originally chartered in 1921 as a Pennsylvania-chartered building and loan association. The Banks deposits are insured up to the maximum amount allowable by the FDIC.
The Bank is a community oriented savings institution offering a variety of financial services to meet the needs of the communities it serves. As of December 31, 2004 the Bank operated fourteen branch offices in Bucks and
2
Philadelphia counties, Pennsylvania and in Mercer County, New Jersey. A fifteenth branch is presently scheduled to open in Northeast Philadelphia during the second quarter of 2005.
The Bank attracts deposits from the general public and uses such deposits, together with borrowings and other funds primarily to originate or purchase loans secured by first mortgages on owner-occupied, one-to-four family residences in its market area and to invest in mortgage-backed and investment securities. At December 31, 2004, one-to-four family residential mortgage loans totaled $285 million or 64% of the Banks total loan portfolio. At that same date, the Bank had approximately $119 million or 19% of total assets invested in mortgage-backed securities and $25 million or 4% of total assets in investment securities. The Bank also originates commercial real estate and multi-family, construction and consumer loans. The Bank has two subsidiaries, Third Delaware Corporation, which was incorporated in 1998 for the purpose of holding and managing mortgage-backed securities and investment securities for the Bank, and Teragon Financial Corporation which holds the Banks 75% limited partnership interest in a captive title insurance agency, Third Fed Abstract, L. P.
Market Area
The Bank offers a wide range of consumer and business products at its fourteen full service branch offices located in Bucks and Philadelphia Counties in Pennsylvania, and Mercer County in New Jersey. Five of the branch offices are located in Bucks County, the third wealthiest county in Pennsylvania. Bucks County is a growing region offering opportunity for growth for the Bank. Six branches are located in the northeast section of Philadelphia where the Bank was founded. Although Philadelphia County is experiencing population decline, the Banks branches in this section of Philadelphia represent a deposit stronghold. The remaining three branches are in Mercer County, New Jersey which has an expanding population and represents another growth area for the Bank.
Competition
The Bank faces varying degrees of competition from banks, thrift institutions and credit unions at its various branch locations. Stronger competition has come from local and very large regional commercial banks based in and around the Philadelphia area. At December 31, 2004 the Company believed that commercial banks held approximately 78% of the deposit market in Philadelphia County, 65% in Bucks County and 77% in Mercer County. The Banks estimated share of the deposit market in Philadelphia, Bucks and Mercer Counties was 0.7%, 1.6% and 1.0%, respectively, at December 31, 2004.
Lending Activities
General. The Banks loan portfolio composition consists primarily of conventional adjustable-rate (ARM) and fixed-rate first mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences. The Bank also makes commercial real estate and multi-family loans, construction loans and consumer and other loans. At December 31, 2004, the Banks mortgage loans outstanding were $378 million, of which $285 million were secured by first mortgages on one- to four-family residential property. Of the one- to four-family residential mortgage loans outstanding at that date, 11% were ARMs and 89% were fixed-rate loans. Total ARM loans in the Banks portfolio at December 31, 2004 amounted to $32 million or 7% of total loans. At that same date, commercial real estate and multi-family residential and construction loans totaled $84 million and $10 million, respectively.
Consumer and other loans held by the Bank totaled $34 million or 8% of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2004, of which $30 million or 7% consisted of home equity and second mortgages, and other consumer loans At that same date commercial business loans and leases totaled $31 million.

Typically, such residences are single-family homes that serve as the primary residence of the owner. The Bank generally originates and invests in one-to-four family residential mortgage loans in amounts up to 80% of the lesser of the appraised value or selling price of the mortgaged property. Loans originated in amounts over 80% of the lesser of the appraised value or selling price of the mortgaged property, other than loans to
5
facilitate the sale of real estate acquired through foreclosure, must be owner-occupied and private mortgage insurance must be provided on the amount in excess of 80%.
Loan originations are obtained from existing or past customers, members of the local community, and referrals from established builders and realtors within the Banks lending area using direct advertising in local newspapers, branch signage and promotions, and word of mouth referrals.
The Bank offers a variety of ARM loans with terms of 30 years which adjust at the end of 6 months, one, three, five, seven and ten years and adjust by a maximum of 1% to 2% per adjustment with a lifetime cap of 5% to 6% over the life of the loan.
The Bank offers fixed-rate mortgage loans with terms of 10 to 30 years, which are payable monthly. Interest rates charged on fixed-rate mortgage loans are competitively priced based on market conditions. The origination fees for fixed-rate loans range from 0% to 3% depending on the underlying loan coupon. Generally, the Banks standard underwriting guideline for fixed-rate mortgage loans conform to the FHLMC and FNMA guidelines and may be sold in the secondary market. The Bank sells a small portion of its conforming fixed-rate mortgage loan originations in the secondary market to FHLMC and FNMA while retaining the servicing rights on these loans. The Bank also brokers a small portion of its loan applications to correspondents. However, the Bank is primarily a portfolio lender. As of December 31, 2004, the Banks portfolio of loans serviced for FHLMC or FNMA totaled approximately $2.3 million.
Beginning in December 2003 the Bank initiated a mortgage lending department that is separate as to its sales efforts from the consumer lending area of the Bank. In connection with this initiative, the Bank has hired a mortgage lending manager and several commissioned loan officers. The Bank now offers, in addition to its standard portfolio loan products, other types of mortgage loans that will be originated in the name of, or sold on a servicing released basis to, third party investors. The mortgage loan officers support the Banks branches and customers, and additionally engage in calling efforts directed toward realtors, builders, and others that can be sources of lending business for the Bank. While these activities are a small part of the Companys overall lending activities, the Company expects to grow this line of business in the future.
Commercial Real Estate and Multi-Family Lending. The Bank originates loans secured by commercial real estate including non-owner occupied residential multi-family dwelling units (more than four units) primarily secured by professional office buildings and apartment complexes. The Bank generally originates commercial real estate and multi-family loans up to 75% of the appraised value of the property securing the loan. Currently, it is the Banks philosophy to originate commercial real estate and multi-family loans primarily on properties in its general market area. The commercial real estate and multi-family loans in the Banks portfolio consist of fixed-rate, ARM and balloon loans which were originated at prevailing market rates for terms of up to 25 years. The Banks current policy is to originate commercial real estate and multi-family loans as ARMs that amortize over a 20 to 25 year period and either balloon or are callable by the Bank after a 5 to 10 year period.
Loans secured by commercial and multi-family real estate are generally larger and involve a greater degree of risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. Of primary concern in commercial and multi-family real estate lending is the borrowers creditworthiness and the feasibility and cash flow potential of the project. Loans secured by income properties are generally larger and involve greater risks than residential mortgage loans because payments on loans secured by income properties are often dependent on successful operation or management of the properties. As a result, repayment of such loans may be subject to a greater extent than residential real estate loans to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. In order to monitor cash flows on income properties, the Bank requires borrowers and loan guarantors, if any, to provide annual financial statements and rent rolls on multi-family loans. At December 31, 2004, the five largest commercial real estate and multi-family loans totaled $18.9 million with no single loan larger than $6.2 million. At December 31, 2004, all such loans were current and the properties securing such loans are in the Banks market area.
Construction Lending. At December 31, 2004, the Bank had $10 million of construction loans or 2% of the Banks total loan portfolio. Construction financing is generally 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 propertys 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
6
cost overruns. If the estimate of construction costs proves to be inaccurate, the Bank may be required to advance funds beyond the amount originally committed to permit completion of the development. If the estimate of value 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.
Consumer and Other Loans. The Bank also offers consumer and other loans in the form of home equity and second mortgage loans (referred to hereinafter collectively as second mortgage loans), automobile loans and student loans. These loans totaled $34 million or 8% of the Banks total loan portfolio at December 31, 2004. Federal regulations permit federally chartered thrift institutions to make secured and unsecured consumer loans up to 35% of an institutions assets. In addition, a federal thrift has lending authority above the 35% category for certain consumer loans, property improvement loans, and loans secured by savings accounts. The Bank originates consumer loans in order to provide a wide range of financial services to its customers and because the shorter terms and normally higher interest rates on such loans help maintain a profitable spread between its average loan yield and its cost of funds.
In connection with consumer loan applications, the Bank verifies the borrowers income and reviews a credit bureau report. In addition, the relationship of the loan to the value of the collateral is considered. All automobile loan applications are reviewed and approved by the Bank. The Bank reviews the credit report of the borrower as well as the value of the vehicle which secures the loan.
The Bank focuses on the origination of consumer loans. Consumer loans tend to be originated at higher interest rates than conventional residential mortgage loans and for shorter terms which benefits the Banks interest rate risk management. Consumer loans, however, tend to have a higher risk of default than residential mortgage loans. At December 31, 2004, $85,000 or 0.3% of the Banks consumer loans were delinquent more than 90 days.
The Bank offers second mortgage loans on one- to four-family residences. At December 31, 2004, second mortgage and home equity loans totaled $30 million, or 7% of the Banks total loan portfolio. Second mortgage loans are offered as fixed-rate loans for a term not to exceed 15 years. Such loans are only made on owner-occupied one- to four-family residences and are subject to a 75% combined loan to value ratio. The underwriting standards for second mortgage loans are the same as the Banks standards applicable to one- to four-family residential loans.
Business Lending. Federal thrift institutions are permitted to make secured or unsecured loans for commercial, corporate, business or agricultural purposes, including the issuance of letters of credit secured by real estate, business equipment, inventories, accounts receivable and cash equivalents. The aggregate amount of such loans outstanding may not exceed 10% of such institutions assets.
The Bank makes commercial business loans on a secured basis. The terms of such loans generally do not exceed five years. The majority of these loans have floating interest rates which adjust with changes in market driven indices. The Banks commercial business loans primarily consist of short-term loans for equipment, working capital, business expansion and inventory financing. The Bank customarily requires a personal guaranty of payment by the principals of any borrowing entity and reviews the financial statements and income tax returns of the guarantors. At December 31, 2004, the Bank had approximately $31 million outstanding in commercial business loans, which represented approximately 7% of its total loan portfolio.
Prior to 2002 the Bank purchased commercial leases; the Bank no longer engages in this activity. These lessees are generally small medical practitioners located throughout the United States. The average lease amount is less than $100,000. At December 31, 2004 the purchased lease portfolio totaled $0.9 million or 0.2% of total assets.
Loan Approval Authority and Underwriting. The Board of Directors of the Bank sets the authority to approve loans based on the amount, type of loan (i.e., secured or unsecured) and total exposure to the borrower. Where there are one or more existing loans to a borrower, the level of approval required is governed by the proposed total exposure including the new loan. The Board has approved loan authority and limits for certain of the Banks lending personnel and senior officers, including the president of the Bank. Approval authority ranges from $25,000 to $750,000 for secured loans, and $5,000 to $100,000 for unsecured loans. Members of an in-house loan committee comprising the four most senior members of management approve all loans over $500,000. Any two members may combine their lending authority. The committee has the authority to approve secured loans up to $2.5 million and unsecured loans up to $200,000. All loans greater than $2.5 million through $5 million require the approval of a Board Loan Committee
7
composed of four members of the Board of Directors of the Bank. All loans over $5 million or loans that cause the aggregate lending relationship to exceed $5 million must be approved by the Banks Board of Directors.
One- to four-family residential mortgage loans are generally underwritten according to FHLMC and FNMA guidelines. For all loans originated by the Bank, upon receipt of a completed loan application from a prospective borrower, a credit report is ordered, income and certain other information is verified and, if necessary, additional financial information is requested. An appraisal of the real estate intended to secure the proposed loan is required which currently is performed by an independent appraiser designated and approved by the Bank. The Bank makes construction/permanent loans on individual properties. Funds advanced during the construction phase are held in a loan-in-process account and disbursed based upon various stages of completion. The independent appraiser or loan officer determines the stage of completion based upon its physical inspection of the construction. It is the Banks policy to obtain title insurance or a title opinion on all real estate first mortgage loans. Borrowers must also obtain hazard or flood insurance (for loans on property located in a flood zone) prior to closing the loan. For loans in excess of 80% of the loan to value ratio, borrowers are generally required to advance funds on a monthly basis together with each payment of principal and interest to an escrow account from which the Bank makes disbursements for items such as real estate taxes and hazard insurance premiums.
Loans to One Borrower. Current regulations limit loans to one borrower in an amount equal to 15% of unimpaired capital and retained income on an unsecured basis and an additional amount equal to 10% of unimpaired capital and retained income if the loan is secured by readily marketable collateral (generally, financial instruments, not real estate) or $500,000, whichever is higher. Penalties for violations of the loan-to-one borrower statutory and regulatory restrictions include cease and desist orders, the imposition of a supervisory agreement and civil money penalties. The Banks maximum loan-to-one borrower limit was approximately $8.0 million as of December 31, 2004.
At December 31, 2004, the Banks five largest aggregate lending relationships had balances ranging from $4.7 to $7.2 million. At December 31, 2004, all of these loans were current.
Mortgage-Backed Securities
To supplement lending activities, the Bank invests in residential mortgage-backed securities. Although the majority of such securities are held to maturity, they can serve as collateral for borrowings and, through repayments, as a source of liquidity.
The mortgage-backed securities portfolio as of December 31, 2004, consisted of pass-through certificates issued by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) ($12 million), Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA), ($4 million) Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) ($21 million), and real estate mortgage investment conduits formed by these same agencies (REMICs) ($82 million).
At December 31, 2004, the amortized cost of mortgage-backed securities totaled $119 million, or 19% of total assets, and the market value of such securities totaled approximately $119 million.
The Banks mortgage-backed securities are so-called pass-throughs which represent a participation interest in a pool of single-family or multi-family mortgages, the principal and interest payments on which are passed from the mortgage originators, through intermediaries (generally quasi-governmental agencies) that pool and repackage the participation interests in the form of securities, to investors such as the Bank. Such quasi-governmental agencies, which guarantee the payment of principal and interest to investors, primarily include FHLMC, FNMA and GNMA. The REMIC securities are composed of the same loan types as the pass through certificates, but offer differing characteristics as to their expected cash flows depending on the class of such securities purchased. The Banks REMICs are primarily planned amortization classes and very accurately defined maturity classes that, when purchased, offered a high probability of predictable cash flows.

Non-Performing and Problem Assets
Loan Collection. When a borrower fails to make a required payment on a loan, the Bank takes a number of steps to have the borrower cure the delinquency and restore the loan to current status. In the case of residential mortgage loans and consumer loans, the Bank generally sends the borrower a written notice of non-payment after the loan is 15 days past due. In the event payment is not then received, additional letters and phone calls are made. If the loan is still not brought current and it becomes necessary for the Bank to take legal action, which typically occurs after a loan is delinquent more than 90 days, the Bank will commence foreclosure proceedings against any real property that secures the loan and attempt to repossess any personal property that secures a consumer loan. If a foreclosure action is instituted and the loan is not brought current, paid in full, or refinanced before the foreclosure sale, the real property securing the loan generally is sold at foreclosure.
In the case of commercial real estate and multi-family loans, and construction loans, the Bank generally attempts to contact the borrower by telephone after any loan payment is ten days past due and a senior loan officer reviews all collection efforts made if payment is not received after the loan is 30 days past due. Decisions as to when to commence foreclosure actions for commercial real estate and multi-family loans and construction loans are made on a case by case basis. The Bank may consider loan work-out arrangements with these types of borrowers in certain circumstances.
On mortgage loans or loan participations purchased by the Bank, the Bank receives monthly reports from its loan servicers with which it monitors the loan portfolio. Based upon servicing agreements with the servicers of the loan, the Bank relies upon the servicer to contact delinquent borrowers, collect delinquent amounts and to initiate foreclosure proceedings, when necessary, all in accordance with applicable laws, regulations and the terms of the servicing agreements between the Bank and its servicing agents. At December 31, 2004 the Bank used third-party servicers to service $64.7 million in mortgage loans, including one servicer that serviced $52.8 million. All of the Banks third-party mortgage loan servicers are regulated financial institutions or are approved by either HUD, FNMA, or FHLMC to service loans on their behalf.
Delinquent Loans. Generally, the Bank reserves for uncollected interest on loans past due more than 90 days; these loans are included in the table of nonaccrual loans below. Loans also are placed on a nonaccrual status when, in the judgment of management, the probability of collection of interest is deemed to be insufficient to warrant further collection. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is deducted from interest income and the further accrual of interest ceases unless the underlying facts that prompted a nonaccrual determination are deemed to have improved significantly.
Non-Performing Assets. The following table sets forth information regarding non-accrual loans and real estate owned by the Bank at the dates indicated. The Bank had no loans contractually past due more than 90 days for which accrued interest has been recorded.

At December 31, 2004, the Bank had no foreign loans and no loan concentrations exceeding 10% of total loans not disclosed in above the table. Loan concentrations are considered to exist when there are amounts loaned to a multiple number of borrowers engaged in similar activities that would cause them to be similarly impacted by economic or other conditions. Loans recorded in the category of other real estate owned are valued at the lower of book value of loans outstanding or fair market value less cost of disposal.
At December 31, 2004, the Bank was not aware of any potential problem loans that are not otherwise included in the foregoing table. Potential problem loans are loans where information about possible credit problems of borrowers has caused management to have serious doubts about the borrowers ability to comply with present repayment terms.
Classified Assets. OTS regulations provide for a classification system for problem assets of insured institutions which covers all problem assets. Under this classification system, problem assets of insured institutions are classified as substandard, doubtful, or loss. An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Assets classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted. Assets designated special mention by management are assets included on the Banks internal watchlist because of potential weakness but that do not currently warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories.
11
When an insured institution classifies problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, it may establish general allowances for loan losses in an amount deemed prudent by management. General allowances represent loss allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been allocated to particular problem assets. When an insured institution classifies all or a portion of a problem asset as loss, it is required either to establish a specific allowance for losses equal to 100% of that portion of the asset so classified or to charge off such amount. An institutions determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by the OTS, which may order the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances. A portion of general loss allowances established to cover possible losses related to assets classified as substandard or doubtful may be included in determining an institutions regulatory capital, while specific valuation allowances for loan losses generally do not qualify as regulatory capital.
The following table provides further information in regard to the Banks classified assets as of December 31, 2004.

Real Estate Owned. Real estate acquired by the Bank as a result of foreclosure, judgment or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is classified as real estate owned (REO) until it is sold. When property is acquired it is recorded at the lower of fair value, minus estimated cost to sell, or cost. If the property subsequently decreases in estimated value from the initial recorded amount, the Bank will provide an additional valuation allowance, through a charge to earnings, if the decrease is judged by management to be temporary, or the Bank will write the property down, through a charge to earnings, to the new estimated value if the decrease is judged by management to be permanent.
The Bank records loans as in substance foreclosures if the borrower has little or no equity in the property based upon its documented current fair value and if the borrower has effectively abandoned control of the collateral or has continued to retain control of the collateral but because of the current financial status of the borrower it is doubtful the borrower will be able to repay the loan in the foreseeable future. In substance foreclosures are accounted for as loans until such time that title to the collateral is acquired by the Bank. There may be significant other expenses incurred such as attorney and other extraordinary servicing costs involved with in substance foreclosures.
Allowances for Loan Losses. The Bank provides valuation allowances for estimated losses from uncollectible loans. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance on a quarterly basis to ensure that a provision for loan losses has been charged against earnings in an amount necessary to maintain the allowance at a level that is appropriate based on managements estimate of probable losses. Several sources of data are used in making the evaluation as to the appropriateness of the allowance.
The Banks watch list contains all loans which because of past payment history, a review of recent financial information, or other facts regarding the credit, pose a higher than normal amount of perceived risk of collection. Once a loan is deemed to pose other than a normal level of risk of collection, it moves to the classified asset list as either special mention, substandard, doubtful, or loss as required by regulatory guidelines. Classified assets also include all loans over 90 days past due according to the contractual repayment terms. These loans are automatically considered at least substandard. All loans not on the classified asset list are assigned a reserve factor that is based on the Companys actual loss experience over the last three years, with a small factor assigned to loans current as to their contractual payments, and an increased factor if the loan is 30 or 60 days past due. Classified loans with balances under $100,000 are typically pooled according to their underlying collateral, and a reserve factor assigned based on historical loss experience. Classified loans are evaluated on an individual basis if the loan balance exceeds $100,000. In such a case, the value of the underlying collateral, which is ordinarily real estate because of the nature of the Banks predominant past lending
12
activities, the cost of collection and disposition, and other factors are considered and an estimated reserve level is established. In establishing estimated reserves, current and projected economic conditions as they may affect the borrower and the collateral are considered. If prospects appear poor with respect to collateral disposition, for example, because of economic factors, a lower disposition value and thus a higher reserve level would be established. Similarly, the credit may be guaranteed by a governmental agency, or the collateral value may greatly exceed the loan balance such that no reserve is indicated for these loans that are nevertheless considered classified assets because of their delinquency. If a loan or a portion of a loan is judged to be unrecoverable, that amount is charged off. The calculated reserve determined using the methodologies described above is compared to the actual level of reserves; the difference reflects the imprecision of the multitude of assumptions that are made combined with the variability that can occur with a relatively small amount of troubled assets, and the reserve is maintained at reasonable levels by adjusting the provision that is charged to earnings.
The following table sets forth information with respect to the Banks allowance for loan losses at the dates and for the periods indicated:

Investment Activities
The investment policy of the Bank, which is established by the Board of Directors and implemented by the Asset Liability Committee, is designed primarily to provide and maintain liquidity, to generate a favorable return on investments without incurring undue interest rate and credit risk, and to complement the Banks lending activities. In establishing its investment strategies, the Bank considers its business and growth plans, the economic environment, the types of securities to be held and other factors. Federally chartered savings institutions have the authority to invest in various types of assets, including U.S. Treasury obligations, securities of various federal agencies, certain certificates of deposit of insured banks and savings institutions, certain bankers acceptances, repurchase agreements, loans on federal funds, and, subject to certain limits, commercial paper and mutual funds.
The following table sets forth certain information regarding the amortized cost and fair values of the Banks investments at the dates indicated.

Sources of Funds
General. Deposits, borrowings, loan repayments and cash flows generated from operations are the primary sources of the Banks funds for use in lending, investing and other general purposes.
Deposits. The Bank offers a variety of deposit accounts having a range of interest rates and terms. The Banks deposits consist of regular savings, non-interest bearing checking, NOW checking, money market, and certificate accounts. Of the deposit accounts, $30 million or 6.6% consist of IRA, Keogh or SEP retirement accounts at December 31, 2004.
The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic conditions, changes in money market and prevailing interest rates and competition. The Banks deposits are primarily obtained from areas surrounding its offices, and the Bank relies primarily on customer service and long-standing relationships with customers to attract and retain these deposits. The Bank has maintained a high level of core deposits consisting of regular savings, money market, non-interest-bearing checking, and NOW checking, which has contributed to a low cost-of-funds. At December 31, 2004, core deposits amounted to 68% of total deposits.
The following table sets forth the distribution of the Banks deposit accounts at the dates indicated and the weighted average nominal interest rates on each category of deposits presented. The Bank does not have significant amount of deposits from out-of-state sources. Management does not believe that the use of year end balances instead of average balances resulted in any material difference in the information presented.

Borrowings
Deposits are the primary source of funds of the Banks lending and investment activities and for its general business purposes. The Bank may obtain advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh to supplement its supply of lendable funds. Advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh are typically secured by a pledge of the Banks stock in the FHLB of Pittsburgh and a portion of the Banks first mortgage loans and certain other assets. The Bank, if the need arises, may also access the Federal Reserve Bank discount window. The following tables set forth the maximum month-end balance, period ending balance, and weighted average balance of outstanding FHLB advances at the dates and for the periods indicated, together with the applicable weighted average interest rates.

Subsidiary Activity
The Bank is permitted to invest up to 2% of its assets in the capital stock of, or secured or unsecured loans to, subsidiary corporations, with an additional investment of 1% of assets when such additional investment is utilized primarily for community development purposes. Under such limitations, as of December 31, 2004, the Bank was authorized to invest up to approximately $12.9 million in the stock of, or loans to, service corporations (based upon the 2% limitation). In addition, the Bank can designate a subsidiary as an operating subsidiary, in which there is no percentage of assets investment limitation, if it engages only in activities in which it would be permissible for the Bank to engage. At December 31, 2004, the Bank had two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Third Delaware Corporation and Teragon Financial Corporation. Third Delaware Corporation was formed in 1998 for the purpose of investing in marketable securities. At December 31, 2004, the Bank had $121.3 million invested in Third Delaware Corporation. Teragon Financial Corporation (Teragon) was formerly a subsidiary of the Company and had been dormant for several years until 2004, at which time the Company contributed its interest to the Bank. Shortly thereafter, Teragon invested $7,500 in a limited partnership entitled Third Fed Abstract, L. P., whose purpose is to operate a title insurance agency, primarily to capture certain title insurance premiums generated by the Banks lending activities. At December 31, 2004 the Bank had an investment of $36,000 in Teragon which, in turn, had an investment of $7,500 in Third Fed Abstract L. P.
Personnel
As of December 31, 2004, the Company had 156 full-time and 38 part-time employees. None of the Companys employees are represented by a collective bargaining group. The Company believes that its relationship with its employees is good.

REGULATION
Set forth below is a brief description of all material laws and regulations which relate to the regulation of the Bank and the Company. The description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to applicable laws and regulations.
On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Act). The Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) has promulgated new regulations pursuant to the Act and may continue to propose additional implementing or clarifying regulations as necessary in furtherance of the Act. The passage of the Act by Congress and the implementation of new regulations by the SEC subject publicly-traded companies to additional and more cumbersome reporting regulations and disclosure. Compliance with the Act and corresponding regulations may increase the Companys expenses.
Company Regulation
General. The Company is a unitary savings and loan holding company subject to regulatory oversight by the OTS. As such, the Company is required to register and file reports with the OTS and is subject to regulation and examination by the OTS. In addition, the OTS has enforcement authority over the Company and its non-savings association subsidiaries, should such subsidiaries be formed, which also permits the OTS to restrict or prohibit activities that are determined to be a serious risk to the subsidiary savings association. This regulation and oversight is intended primarily for the protection of the depositors of the Bank and not for the benefit of stockholders of the Company. The Company is also required to file certain reports with, and otherwise comply with, the rules and regulations of the OTS and the SEC.
Financial Modernization. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLB) permits qualifying 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. GLB 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. A qualifying national bank also may engage, subject to limitations on investment, in activities that are financial in nature, other than insurance underwriting, insurance company portfolio investment, real estate development, and real estate investment, through a financial subsidiary of the bank.
GLB also prohibits new unitary thrift holding companies from engaging in nonfinancial activities or from affiliating with a nonfinancial entity. As a grandfathered unitary thrift holding company, the Company has retained its authority to engage in nonfinancial activities.
QTL Test. As a unitary savings and loan holding company, the Company generally is not subject to activity restrictions, provided the Bank satisfies the QTL test. If the Company acquires control of another savings association 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 association) would become subject to restrictions applicable to bank holding companies unless such other associations each also qualify as a QTL and were acquired in a supervisory acquisition.
Bank Regulation
General. As a federally chartered, SAIF-insured savings association, the Bank is subject to extensive regulation by the OTS and the FDIC. Lending activities and other investments must comply with various federal statutory and regulatory requirements. The Bank is also subject to certain reserve requirements promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board.
The OTS, in conjunction with the FDIC, regularly examines the Bank and prepares reports for the consideration of the Banks Board of Directors on any deficiencies that they find in the Banks operations. The Banks relationship with its depositors and borrowers is also regulated to a great extent by federal law, especially in such matters as the ownership of savings accounts and the form and content of the Banks mortgage documents.
20
The Bank must file reports with the OTS and the FDIC concerning its activities and financial condition, in addition to obtaining regulatory approvals prior to entering into certain transactions such as mergers with or acquisitions of other savings institutions. This regulation and supervision establishes a comprehensive framework of activities in which an institution can engage and is intended primarily for the protection of the SAIF and depositors. The regulatory structure also gives the regulatory authorities extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities and examination policies, including policies with respect to the classification of assets and the establishment of adequate loan loss reserves for regulatory purposes. Any change in such regulations, whether by the OTS, the FDIC or the Congress could have a material adverse impact on the Company, the Bank and their operations. The Company is also required to file certain reports with, and otherwise comply with, the rules and regulations of the OTS and the SEC.
Insurance of Deposit Accounts. The Banks deposit accounts are insured by the SAIF to a maximum of $100,000 for each insured member (as defined by law and regulation). The FDIC has the authority, should it initiate proceedings to terminate an institutions deposit insurance, to suspend the insurance of any such institution without tangible capital. However, if a savings association has positive capital when it includes qualifying intangible assets, the FDIC cannot suspend deposit insurance unless capital declines materially, the institution fails to enter into and remain in compliance with an approved capital plan or the institution is operating in an unsafe or unsound manner.
Regardless of an institutions capital level, insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC or the institutions primary regulator. The management of the Bank is unaware of any practice, condition or violation that might lead to termination of its deposit insurance.
The FDIC charges an annual assessment for the insurance of deposits based on the risk a particular institution poses to its deposit insurance fund. This risk classification is based on an institutions capital group and supervisory subgroup assignment.
Regulatory Capital Requirements. OTS capital regulations require savings institutions to meet three capital standards: (1) tangible capital equal to 1.5% of total adjusted assets, (2) a leverage ratio (core capital) equal to at least 4% of total adjusted assets and (3) a risk-based capital requirement equal to 8.0% of total risk-weighted assets. In addition, the OTS prompt corrective action regulation provides that a savings institution that has a leverage capital ratio of less than 4% (3% for institutions receiving the highest examination rating) will be deemed to be undercapitalized and may be subject to certain restrictions.
At December 31, 2004, the Bank was in compliance with all of its regulatory capital requirements.
Dividend and Other Capital Distribution Limitations. The Bank may not declare or pay a cash dividend on its capital stock if the effect thereof would be to reduce the regulatory capital of the Bank below the amount required for the liquidation account established at the time of the Banks mutual-to-stock conversion.
Savings associations that would remain at least adequately capitalized following the capital distribution, and that meet other specified requirements, are not required to file a notice or application for capital distributions (such as cash dividends) declared below specified amounts. Savings associations which are eligible for expedited treatment under current OTS regulations are not required to file an application with the OTS if (i) the savings association would remain at least adequately capitalized following the capital distribution and (ii) the amount of capital distribution does not exceed an amount equal to the savings associations net income for that year to date, plus the savings associations retained net income for the previous two calendar years. Thus, only undistributed net income for the prior two years may be distributed in addition to the current years undistributed net income without the filing of an application with the OTS. Savings associations which do not qualify for expedited treatment or which desire to make a capital distribution in excess of the specified amount, must file an application with, and obtain the approval of, the OTS prior to making the capital distribution. A savings association such as the Bank that is a subsidiary of a savings and loan holding company, and under certain other circumstances, must file a notice with OTS prior to making the capital distribution.
Qualified Thrift Lender Test. The Home Owners Loan Act (HOLA), as amended, requires savings institutions to meet a QTL test. If the Bank maintains an appropriate level of Qualified Thrift Investments (primarily residential mortgages and related investments, including certain mortgage-backed securities) (QTIs) and otherwise
21
qualifies as a QTL, it will continue to enjoy full borrowing privileges from the FHLB of Pittsburgh. The required percentage of QTIs is 65% of portfolio assets (defined as all assets minus intangible assets, property used by the institution in conducting its business and liquid assets equal to 10% of total assets). Certain assets are subject to a percentage limitation of 20% of portfolio assets. In addition, savings associations may include shares of stock of the FHLBs, FNMA and FHLMC as qualifying QTIs. The FDICIA also amended the method for measuring compliance with the QTL test to be on a monthly basis in nine out of every 12 months, as opposed to on a daily or weekly average of QTIs. As of December 31, 2004, the Bank was in compliance with its QTL requirement with 76% of its assets invested in QTIs.
Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Bank is a member of the FHLB of Pittsburgh, one of 12 regional FHLBs that administer the home financing credit function of savings associations. Each FHLB serves as a reserve or central bank 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 the Board of Directors of the FHLB.
As a member, the Bank is required to purchase and maintain an investment in the capital stock of the FHLB of Pittsburgh in an amount equal to 5% of its advances outstanding from the FHLB plus 0.7% of its unused borrowing capacity. At December 31, 2004, the Bank had $7.5 million in FHLB stock, which was in compliance with this requirement.
Federal Reserve System. The Federal Reserve Board requires all depository institutions to maintain non-interest bearing reserves at specified levels against their transaction accounts (primarily checking, NOW and Super NOW checking accounts) and non-personal time deposits. The balances maintained to meet the reserve requirements imposed by the Federal Reserve Board may be used to satisfy the liquidity requirements that are imposed by the OTS. At December 31, 2004, the Banks total transaction accounts required a reserve level of $5.1 million which was offset by the Banks vault cash on hand and cash on deposit at the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia.
Savings associations have authority to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank discount window, but Federal Reserve policy generally requires savings associations to exhaust all other sources before borrowing from the Federal Reserve System. The Bank had no such borrowings at December 31, 2004.
