INDEPENDENCE FEDERAL SAVINGS BANK
FEDERAL SAVINGS BANK

March 3, 2003

Dear Valued Custorners:

Recently, there has been extensive media coverage pertaining to the Washington Teachers Union ("WTU") and alleged mishandling of funds by certain of its officers. It has been mentioned in these reports that the WTU had its checking account with Independence Federal.

The Board of Directors assures you that to date we have no knowledge of any improper conduct by Independence Federal or its personnel in its handling of the WTU account. Moreover, we are conducting our own internal investigation in this matter to determine, to the extent possible, what occurred in connection with the account. Please know that, as a witness to activities in the WTU account we are cooperating fully with the US. Attorney's office investigation.

Independence is a well-capitalized, FDIC-insured savings bank, and we intend to continue to provide professional support to our custom, concerned support to the communities we serve, and to maintain our ongoing efforts to increase the value of our shareholders' interests.

Our Board of Directors joins with me in sending cur warmest thanks for your loyalty and support.

Donna F, Shuler
President and CEO
