Dear Shareholders



               Annually I am tasked with writing an Annual Letter to our Shareholders with the goal of sharing
               what was accomplished during the year as well as providing a glimpse into the strategic plans of

               our Company.  As you read this letter and the accompanying Audited Consolidated Financial
               Statements and footnotes, I am confident you will be pleased with the accomplishments we have

               made as well as our plans and goals for the future.





               FINANCIAL REPORT


               The ensuing paragraphs are meant as a summary of our 2016 financial performance,  but you are

               encouraged to read the accompanying Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes
               for a more complete and detailed summary.

               Total Assets grew during 2016 and ended the year at $571 million compared to $543 million at

               consisting of United States Agency securities, Municipal bonds, and Mortgage-Backed securities

               activities.  On the Liabilities side of the Balance Sheet, we had Total Deposits increase by more
