FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS                                     [North Fork logo]

- This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
  the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Such statements
  include, but are not limited to, statements about the benefits of the merger
  between North Fork Bancorporation, Inc. ("North Fork") and GreenPoint
  Financial Corp. ("GreenPoint"), including future financial and operating
  results, North Fork's plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and
  other statements that are not historical facts.  Such statements are based
  upon the current belies and expectations of North Fork's and GreenPoint's
  management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties.  Actual
  results may differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements:
  the ability to obtain governmental approvals of the merger on the proposed
  terms and schedule; the failure of North Fork and GreenPoint stockholders to
  approve the merger; the risk that the businesses will not be integrated
  successfully; the risk that the cost savings and any revenue synergies
  from the merger may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize
  than expected; disruption from the merger making it more difficult to maintain
  relationships with clients, employees or suppliers; increased competition
  and its effect on pricing, spending, third-party relationships and revenues;
  the risk of new and changing regulation in the U.S. and internationally.
  Additional factors that could cause North Fork's and GreenPoint's results to
  differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can
  be found in the 2002 Annual Reports on Forms 10-K of North Fork and
  GreenPoint, and in the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q of North Fork and
