Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Employee Benefit Committee
TierOne Bank Savings Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the TierOne Bank Savings Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for each of the years in the the three-year period ended December 31, 2007 in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year), is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

TIERONE BANK SAVINGS PLAN

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005

(1) Description of Plan

  The following description of the TierOne Bank (Bank) Savings Plan (Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.

  (a) General

  The Plan, established August 1, 1978 and restated as of January 1, 2006, is a defined contribution 401(k) profit sharing plan and is administered by the Employee Benefit Committee. It is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). The Bank believes the Plan is in compliance with the requirements of ERISA.

  (b) Eligibility

  Employees must complete six months of service to be eligible for participation in the Plan. The employee must make an election to participate in the Plan and agree to make contributions to the Plan by payroll deductions.

  (c) Contributions

  Employees can contribute from 1% to 25% of their salary to the Plan. Participants who have attained age 50 before the end of the Plan year are eligible to make catch-up contributions. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined contribution plans. The Bank makes a matching contribution equal to 50% of an employee’s contribution up to a maximum of 6% of the employee’s salary. The Bank, in its discretion, may make additional contributions to the Plan not to exceed the maximum amount deductible from the Bank’s income under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Participants must be employed on December 31 to receive an allocation of the Bank’s contribution. Participants direct the investment of their contributions plus the Company’s contributions into various investment options offered by the Plan.

  (d) Participant Accounts

  Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution, an allocation of the Bank’s contribution, investment gains and losses, and any associated investment expenses. Administrative expenses are paid by the Bank. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.

  (e) Vesting

  Participants are vested immediately in their contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Plan participants become 100% vested in the Bank’s matching contributions at three years of service.

  (f) Payment of Benefits

  On termination of service or retirement, a participant may elect to receive either a single lump-sum amount equal to the value of the participant’s vested interest in the participant’s account or a fixed-period annuity. Participants may also elect to receive a taxable distribution of any part of their contributed vested account balance prior to retirement if plan hardship requirements are met.

TIERONE BANK SAVINGS PLAN

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005

  (g) Forfeitures

  For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, forfeitures in nonvested accounts totaling $5,764, $12,476, and $13,171, respectively, were used to reduce employer contributions. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, forfeited nonvested accounts totaled $1,345 and $1,078, respectively.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

  (a) Basis of Accounting

  The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method of accounting.

  (b) Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

  The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value. Quoted market prices are used to value investments. Each pooled separate account is valued at fair value at the close of each business day. The net appreciation (depreciation) in pooled separate accounts as reflected in the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits consists of realized gains or losses and the unrealized appreciation and depreciation on those investments during the year.

  Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

  (c) Payment of Benefits

  Benefits are recorded when paid.

  (d) Use of Estimates

  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

  (e) Risks and Uncertainties

  The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rates, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risk in the near term could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits and the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits.

  (f) Concentrations of Investments

  Included in the Plan’s net assets available for benefits at December 31, 2007 and 2006 are investments in TierOne Corporation common stock amounting to $7,792,837 and $11,322,985, respectively, whose value could be subject to change based on market conditions. At December 31, 2007 and June 19, 2008, the market value per share of TierOne Corporation common stock was $22.15 and $5.31, respectively. This decline in market value would have the impact of increasing net depreciation by approximately $5.9 million since the Plan year ended December 31, 2007.

  * Did not meet the 5% threshold in the applicable year.

(4) Guaranteed Interest Account with Insurer

  The Plan entered into a guaranteed interest account with Principal Life Insurance Company who maintains the contributions in a pooled account. The guaranteed interest account is credited with earnings on the underlying investments and charged for plan withdrawals and administrative expenses charged by Principal Life Insurance Company. The guaranteed interest account is included in the financial statements at fair value (which represents contributions made under the contract plus earnings, less withdrawals and expenses) as it is not fully benefit responsive. There are no reserves against contract value for credit risk of the contract issuer or otherwise. The average yield and crediting interest rates approximated 3.37%, 2.94%, and 2.94% for 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively. The crediting interest rate is based on an agreed-upon formula with the issuer, but cannot be less than 0%.

(5) Related Party Transactions

  Certain of the Plan’s investments are shares in pooled funds managed by Principal Life Insurance Company. Principal Life Insurance Company is the custodian as defined by the Plan, and therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest. Fees paid by the Plan for the administrative services amounted to $2,654, $5,749, and $7,059 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

(6) Plan Termination

  Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of plan termination, participants would become 100% vested in their employer contributions.

(7) Tax Status

  The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Bank by a letter, dated June 19, 2002, that the Plan and related trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the IRC. Although the Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter, the Plan administrator and the Plan’s tax counsel believe that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.

(8) Subsequent Event

  On March 20, 2008, TierOne Corporation announced that its Board of Directors terminated the merger agreement between TierOne Corporation and CapitalSource, Inc. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, either party had the right to terminate the merger agreement if the proposed merger was not completed by February 17, 2008.
