Words such as expect, feel, believe, will, may, anticipate, plan, estimate, intend, should and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve certain risks and uncertainties. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements include, among others, the following possibilities: (1) estimated synergies from the acquisition cannot be fully realized within the expected time frame; (2) revenues following the acquisition are lower than expected; (3) competitive pressure among depository institutions increases significantly; (4) costs or difficulties related to the integration of the businesses of TD Banknorth and Interchange are greater than expected; (5) changes in the interest rate environment reduce interest margins; (6) general economic conditions, either nationally or in the markets in which TD Banknorth will be doing business, are less favorable than expected; (7) legislation or changes in regulatory requirements adversely affect the businesses in which TD Banknorth would be engaged; or (8) factors which would result in a condition to the transaction not being met. Neither TD Banknorth nor Interchange undertakes any obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after the date on which such statements were made. 2 1

TD Banknorth Summary Exactly the type of transaction TD Banknorth has consistently and successfully executed throughout its history Expands TD Banknorth s existing franchise in the highly attractive communities of northern Strong management team and talented employee base that will add depth to our existing franchise Significant opportunities to leverage TD Banknorth s broader array of product and service offerings Attractive return on investment mid-teens IRR Low risk transaction 19 What this acquisition means for TD Bank Financial Group Consistent with TD s growth strategy: Supporting TD Banknorth s expansion in the U.S. Northeast Leveraging the flexibility of the TD Banknorth ownership structure: TD contributing US$405MM (C$465MM) via purchase from treasury of approximately 13MM TD Banknorth shares at US$31.17 TD s ownership position increases to approximately 58.6% Anticipated to be modestly accretive to TD s earnings on both a reported and adjusted basis in 2007 Approximately 45 basis point reduction in both tangible common equity ratio and tier 1 capital ratio TD s financial results prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP are referred to as reported results. TD also utilizes adjusted earnings (i.e., reported earnings excluding items of note ) to assess each of its businesses and measure overall performance. Adjusted earnings are not defined terms under Canadian GAAP and may not be comparable to similar terms used by other issuers. See page 14 of TD s 2005 Annual Report (www.td.com/investor) for an explanation of how TD reports and a reconciliation of adjusted to reported results. Certain factors and assumptions were applied in drawing the above conclusion about TD s anticipated results and certain factors could cause this conclusion to differ from actual results. For more information on these factors and assumptions, see TD s 2005 Annual Report, the accompanying press releases of TD Banknorth and TD dated April 13, 2006 (www.td.com/investor), and as well the foregoing slides of TD Banknorth. The transaction is not material to TD. 20 10

Questions & Answers 21 Note on Non-GAAP Financial Information/Additional Information About the Transaction This presentation contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ( GAAP ). The Company s management uses these non-gaap measures in its analysis of the Company s performance. These measures typically adjust GAAP performance measures to exclude the effects of charges and expenses related to the consummation of mergers and acquisitions and costs related to the integration of merged entities, as well as the amortization of intangible assets in the case of cash basis performance measures. These non-gaap measures also may exclude other significant gains or losses that are unusual in nature, such as security gains and prepayment penalties incurred in connection with deleveraging strategies. Because these items and their impact on the Company s performance are difficult to predict, management believes that presentations of financial measures excluding the impact of these items provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the operating results of the Company s core businesses. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-gaap performance measures which may be presented by other companies. This presentation is being made in respect of the proposed merger transaction involving Interchange Financial Services Corporation and TD Banknorth Inc. Interchange will be filing relevant documents concerning the merger with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including a proxy statement. We urge investors to read these documents because they will contain important information. Investors will be able to obtain these documents free of charge at the SEC s website, www.sec.gov. In addition, documents filed with the Commission by Interchange will be available free of charge from the Secretary of Interchange (Nicholas R. Marcalus, Secretary, Interchange Financial Services Corporation, Park 80 West/Plaza II, Saddle Brook, 07663, telephone (201) 703-2265). Interchange and its directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies to approve the merger. Information about the directors and executive officers of Interchange and ownership of Interchange common stock is set forth in Interchange s proxy statement for its 2005 annual meeting of stockholders, dated March 30, 2005, as filed with the Commission. Additional information about the interests of those participants may be obtained from reading the definitive proxy statement relating to the proposed acquisition when it becomes available. Interchange stockholders should read the proxy statement and other documents to be filed with the Commission carefully before making a decision concerning the merger. 22 11
