NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

June 30, 2002

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.

Operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2002. The balance sheet at December 31, 2001 is from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Zions Bancorporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS, GOODWILL, AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 141, Business Combinations, became effective for the Company for business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. Statement No. 141 supersedes certain previous accounting guidance on business combinations, and eliminates the pooling-of-interest method of accounting. There were no acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2002.

FASB Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2002. Under this Statement, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are no longer amortized, but are subject to specified annual impairment tests. Other intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

During the second quarter, the Company completed all goodwill impairment testing required under the transitional provisions of Statement No. 142. The impairment losses indicated above, net of income tax benefit of $2.7 million, were recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2002 as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in accordance with Statement No. 142. This adjustment relates to the impairment in carrying value of the Company’s investments in certain e-commerce subsidiaries included in the “Other” operating segment. The impairment amount was determined as of January 1, 2002 by comparing the carrying value of these subsidiaries to their fair value, which was estimated from comparable market values including price-to-revenue multiples.

The accompanying financial statements include the following restatement of the Company’s first quarter financial statements as required by Statement No. 142 for the cumulative effect adjustment (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Allocated transfer pricing (expense) income included in net interest income of the banking subsidiaries for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2002, respectively, are as follows: Zions First National Bank - $(13.3) and $(24.6) million, Nevada State Bank - $2.8 and 6.2 million, National Bank of Arizona - $3.3 and $5.1 million, Vectra Bank Colorado - $6.0 and $11.2 million, and The Commerce Bank of Washington - $1.2 and $2.1 million. Also, for consistency between periods, net income of each segment for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2001 has been adjusted for the add back of goodwill amortization following the adoption of FASB Statement No. 142 in 2002.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

OPERATING RESULTS

Zions Bancorporation and subsidiaries (“the Company”) achieved net income of $82.1 million, or $0.89 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2002, an increase of 11.5% and 12.7%, respectively, over the $73.6 million, or $0.79 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2001. Net income for the second quarter of 2001, adjusted for the add back of goodwill amortization under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 142, was $82.3 million, or $0.88 per diluted share. Comparing the equivalent amount in the second quarter of 2002 to this adjusted amount in 2001 reflects a 0.21% decrease in net income and a 1.1% increase per share. All references hereinafter to prior periods are on an “as adjusted” basis for the add back of goodwill amortization under FASB Statement No. 142.

For the first six months of 2002, net income was $129.3 million or $1.40 per diluted share, compared to $154.1 million or $1.69 per diluted share for the first six months of 2001. The 2002 amounts include impairment losses of $32.4 million, net of an income tax benefit of $2.7 million, recognized under the transitional provisions of FASB Statement No. 142 and accounted for as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. This adjustment relates to an impairment in carrying value as of January 1, 2002 of the Company’s investments in certain e-commerce subsidiaries. The remaining investment of these impaired subsidiaries was $31.7 million as of June 30, 2002. The 2001 amounts include a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle for the adoption of FASB Statement No. 133.

On April 30, 2002, the Company finalized the exchange of its interest in Digital Signature Trust (“DST”) for an approximate 33% ownership in Identrus, LLC. No gain or loss was recognized in the financial statements. Included in the 2002 second quarter results are after-tax operating losses at DST of $1.5 million, or $0.02 per share and equity in after-tax losses of Identrus of $0.7 million or $0.01 per share. DST losses in the second quarter of 2001 were $3.4 million or $0.04 per share.

The annualized return on average assets was 1.26% in the second quarter of 2002, compared to 1.39% in the second quarter of 2001. The annualized return on average common shareholders’ equity was 14.21% in the second quarter of 2002, compared to 15.28% in the second quarter of 2001. The efficiency ratio, defined as the percentage of noninterest expenses to the sum of taxable equivalent net interest income and noninterest income, increased to 60.51% in the second quarter of 2002 from 59.00% in the second quarter of 2001.

For the first six months of 2002, the annualized return on average assets was 1.01%, compared to 1.36% for the first six months of 2001. The annualized return on average common shareholders’ equity was 11.37% for the first six months of 2002 compared to 15.37% for the first six months of 2001. The decreases reflect the impairment losses discussed above.

The Company’s second quarter decrease in earnings of $0.2 million, (0.21%), compared to the same period the previous year includes a $24.0 million (10.2%) increase in net interest income and a $9.9 million (10.6%) increase in noninterest income, offset by a $3.5 million (28.4%) increase in the provision for loan losses, a $25.7 million (13.0%) increase in noninterest expense, a $4.0 million (10.4%) increase in income taxes, and a $1.2 million (67.8%) decrease from the effects of minority interests.

For the first six months of 2002 compared to the same period in 2001, the $24.8 million (16.1%) decrease in net income reflects a $64.4 million (14.3%) increase in net interest income, offset by a $6.1 million (3.0%) decrease in noninterest income, a $8.8 million (35.1%) increase in the provision for loan losses, a $41.7 million (10.6%) increase in noninterest expense, a $4.9 million (6.2%) increase in income taxes, a

$2.7 million (78.6%) decrease from the effects of minority interests, and a $25.2 million (352.1%) increase in the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle resulting from the adoption in 2002 of FASB Statement No. 142 and the impairment losses previously described, compared to the adoption in 2001 of FASB Statement No. 133.

Noninterest income for the first six months of 2001 included a $50.2 million gain from the sale of a nonpublic investee of the Company to a public company, Concord EFS, Inc., offset by valuation adjustments to venture capital investments of $23.1 million. Noninterest expense included $14.4 million in nonrecurring charges for certain benefit obligations, consulting services, and closed business operations. Also during the same period in 2001, the Company completed several acquisitions accounted for as purchases. Results of operations between periods are influenced because of these transactions.

OPERATING CASH EARNINGS RESULTS

The Company also provides its earnings performance on an operating cash basis because it believes its cash performance gives a better reflection of its financial position and shareholder value creation, and better demonstrates its ability to support growth, pay dividends, and repurchase stock, than providing only reported net income. Operating cash earnings are earnings before amortization of goodwill in the prior period, amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets, goodwill allocated to the value of branches sold in 2002, merger-related expenses and the cumulative effect of adoption of FASB Statements No. 133 and 142.

Operating cash earnings for the second quarter of 2002 were $84.8 million or $0.92 per diluted share, an increase of 0.2% and 1.1%, respectively, over the $84.6 million or $0.91 per diluted share earned in the second quarter of 2001. Operating cash earnings for the second quarter of 2002 increased 1.6% over the $83.5 million earned during the first quarter of 2002. Operating cash earnings per diluted share increased 2.2% from the $0.90 in the first quarter of 2002. Year-to-date operating cash earnings were $168.2 million, an increase of 1.0% over the $166.6 million earned in the first half of 2001. Year-to-date operating cash earnings per diluted share were $1.82, unchanged from the same period in 2001.

The operating cash annualized return on average assets for the second quarter and for the first six months of 2002 was 1.34% and 1.35%, compared to 1.48% and 1.51%, respectively, in 2001. Operating cash annualized return on average common shareholders’ equity was 22.99% and 23.34% for the second quarter and for the first six months of 2002, compared to 25.04% and 25.82% for the same periods in 2001. The Company’s cash efficiency ratio for the second quarter and for the first six months of 2002 was 59.27% and 58.66%, respectively, compared to 57.81% and 57.66% for the same periods in 2001.

NET INTEREST INCOME AND INTEREST RATE SPREADS

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2002, adjusted to a fully taxable-equivalent basis, increased 10.1% to $264.3 million compared to $240.2 million for the second quarter of 2001, and increased 1.1% from $261.3 million for the first quarter of 2002. Net interest margin was 4.61% for the second quarter of 2002, compared to 4.63% for the second quarter of 2001 and 4.70% for the first quarter of 2002. The decreased margin reflects primarily a reduced amount reclassified from other comprehensive income to interest income compared to the prior quarter. This reclassification results from certain interest rate swaps that were dedesignated as cash flow hedges in March and April of 2001. The pattern of reclassification was fixed at that time based on the then current yield curve. Six-month net interest income, on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, was $525.6 million in 2002, an increase of 14.0% compared to $460.9 million in 2001.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The provision for loan losses was $15.7 million for the second quarter of 2002, compared to $18.1 million for the first quarter of 2002, and $12.2 million for the second quarter of 2001. The provision for loan losses for the first six months of 2002 totaled $33.8 million, 35.1% more that the $25.0 million provision for the first six months of 2001. Annualized, the year-to-date provision is 0.38% of average loans for 2002 compared to 0.33% for the first six months of 2001. The increased provision for loan losses for the first six months of 2002 compared to the same period in 2001 reflects management’s evaluation of its various portfolios, statistical trends, and other various economic factors. It is management’s intent to maintain a strong coverage of nonperforming assets in a continued uncertain economic environment in the markets in which the Company operates.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2002 was $104.0 million, an increase of 10.6% from the $94.1 million for the second quarter of 2001, and an increase of 8.6% from the $95.8 million for the first quarter of 2002.

Comparing the segments of noninterest income for the second quarter of 2002 to the second quarter of 2001, service charges on deposit accounts increased 15.7%, loan sales and servicing income decreased 12.8%, other service charges, commissions and fees increased 15.4%, income from securities conduit increased 36.2%, underwriting, trading and nonhedge derivative income increased 23.3%, equity securities gains decreased 72.4%, fixed income securities gains decreased 93.9%, and other noninterest income increased 42.2%.

The increase in service charges on deposit accounts results mainly from increased fees associated with acquisitions consummated at the end of the first quarter of 2001 and later in 2001, as well as increased internal core deposit growth. Increased other service charges, commissions and fees also reflect the effect of the acquisitions. The increase in other noninterest income results in part from increased income from investments in bank-owned life insurance and from increases in the Company’s equity in earnings of unconsolidated investee companies, along with a gain of $.5 million from the sale of an investment advisory subsidiary.

Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $199.8 million, a decrease of 3.0% from the $205.9 million for the same period in 2001.

Comparing the segments of noninterest income for the first six months of 2002 with the first six months of 2001, service charges on deposit accounts increased 21.8%, loan sales and servicing income decreased 37.1%, other service charges, commissions and fees increased 18.0%, income from securities conduit increased 114.0%, underwriting, trading and nonhedge derivative income increased 14.3%, equity securities gains decreased 96.0%, fixed income securities losses decreased 101.5%, and other noninterest income increased 46.9%.

The decrease in loan sales and servicing income results from the Company recording a writedown during the first quarter of 2002 of approximately $13.5 million on the capitalized residual cash flows related to an auto securitization nonhedge derivative transaction. The $13.5 million fair value of a swap entered into in this transaction was recorded as an asset, and nonhedge derivative income was increased by this amount. Without this transaction, underwriting, trading and nonhedge derivative income would have been approximately $10.4 million for the first six months of 2002 compared to $20.9 million for the first six

months of 2001. The adjusted decrease from the first six months of 2001 results mainly from the recognition of approximately $11.8 million of nonhedge derivative income during the first six months of 2001 resulting from increases in fair values of nonhedge derivatives in a rapidly decreasing interest rate environment, compared to $1.7 million recognized in 2002. The first six months of 2001 also included approximately $3.3 million of income from held to maturity securities transferred to trading in conjunction with the adoption of FASB Statement No. 133 and sold during the first quarter of 2001.

Income from securities conduit represents liquidity, interest rate agreement, and administrative fees from a sponsored qualified special purpose entity securities conduit established during 2001. The increased fees result from increases in the conduit’s securities portfolio activity.

As previously discussed, the decrease in equity securities gains from the first six months of 2001 results mainly from a gain of $50.2 million from the nonpublic investee transaction and losses of $23.1 million from writedowns of venture capital investments during the first six months of 2001. Fixed income securities losses for the first six months of 2001 included an impairment loss of approximately $4.9 million on SBA interest-only securities.

Changes in other noninterest income between the comparable six-month periods include a $1.4 million increase in income from bank-owned life insurance and a $1.8 million increase in the Company’s equity in earnings of unconsolidated investee companies. Other income for the first six months of 2002 also includes a pretax gain of approximately $3.2 million from the sales of three California branches. The after-tax gain from the sales was approximately $1.4 million.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2002 was $222.9 million, an increase of $16.8 million, or 8.1% over $206.1 million for the second quarter of 2001. Excluding the amortization of goodwill in the second quarter of 2001, noninterest expense increased $25.7 million, or 13.0%. Comparing significant changes in noninterest expense segments for the second quarter of 2002 with the second quarter of 2001, salaries and employee benefits increased 15.6%, occupancy increased 11.8%, furniture and equipment increased 9.6%, legal and professional fees increased 17.7%, merger-related expense and amortization of goodwill decreased 100.0% to zero amounts, amortization of core deposit and other intangibles increased 40.6%, and the total of all other noninterest expenses increased 8.1%.

Expenses for the second quarter of 2001 do not include expenses associated with the operations of the companies acquired to form Lexign, Inc., and Minnequa Bancorp, all of which were acquired subsequent to June 30, 2001. The increase in salaries and wages for the second quarter of 2002 compared to the second quarter of 2001 includes increased pension and employee medical benefits expense of $3.7 million and nonrecurring salary expense associated with the DST transaction of $1.0 million. Legal and professional fees for the second quarter of 2002 include $.6 million of legal expense related to the DST transaction and $1.2 million of consulting fees related to a procurement initiatives project. The increase in amortization of core deposit and other intangibles reflects increased amortization related to the previously discussed purchase acquisitions.

Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $435.3 million compared to $409.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001, an increase of 6.3%. Excluding the amortization of goodwill in the six months ended June 30, 2001, noninterest expense increased 10.6%. Comparing significant changes in noninterest expense segments for the first six months of 2002 with the same period for 2001, salaries and

employee benefits increased 12.6%, occupancy increased 13.6%, furniture and equipment increased 12.2%, merger-related expense and amortization of goodwill decreased 100.0% to zero amounts, amortization of core deposit and other intangibles increased 57.2%, and the total of all other noninterest expenses increased 6.3%.

Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2001 do not include expenses associated with the operations of the companies acquired to form Lexign, Inc., and Minnequa Bancorp, all of which were acquired subsequent to June 30, 2001 and only include expenses of Eldorado Bancshares and branches acquired in Arizona from Pacific Century Bank for the second quarter of 2001. The increase in amortization of core deposit and other intangibles reflects increased amortization related to these purchase acquisitions.

At June 30, 2002, the Company had 8,221 full-time equivalent employees, 409 domestic offices, and 587 ATMs, compared to 7,738 full-time equivalent employees, 413 offices, and 537 ATMs at June 30, 2001.

INCOME TAXES

The Company’s income taxes increased 10.4% to $43.0 million for the second quarter of 2002 compared to $39.0 million for the second quarter of 2001. The Company’s income taxes were $85.0 million for the first six months of 2002, compared to $80.1 million for the same period in 2001. The Company’s effective income tax rate was 34.5% for the second quarter of 2002, compared to 35.2% for the second quarter of 2001. The effective income tax rate for the first six months of 2002 was 34.6% compared to 36.0% for the first six months of 2001. The lower effective rate is mainly due to higher book income resulting from the nonamortization of goodwill in 2002.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

EARNING ASSETS

Average earning assets increased 13.1% to $22,782 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, compared to $20,134 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001.

LOANS

The Company has structured its organization to separate the lending function from the credit review function to strengthen the control and independent evaluation of credit activities. Loan policies and procedures provide the Company with a framework for consistent underwriting and a basis for sound credit decisions. In addition, the Company has well-defined standards for grading its loan portfolio, and management utilizes the comprehensive loan grading system to determine risk potential in the portfolio. Another aspect of the Company’s credit risk management strategy is the diversification of the loan portfolio. The Company has a diversified loan portfolio with some emphasis in real estate (as set forth in the following table), but has no significant exposure to highly leveraged transactions.

During the first six months of 2002, total loans sold were $722 million compared to total loans sold of $712 million during the first six months of 2001.

As of June 30, 2002, the following table shows that the Company had assets of $232 million recorded on its balance sheet related to the $2,544 million of loans sold to securitized trusts. The Company does not control or have any equity interest in the trusts. However, as is common with securitized transactions, the Company has retained subordinated interests of $138 million representing the Company's junior position to other

RISK ELEMENTS

The Company’s nonperforming assets, which include nonaccruing loans, restructured loans, other real estate owned and other nonperforming assets, were $116 million on June 30, 2002, down from $120 million on December 31, 2001, and up from $88 million on June 30, 2001. Such nonperforming assets as a percentage of net loans and leases, other real estate owned and other nonperforming assets were 0.63% on June 30, 2002, compared to 0.69% on December 31, 2001 and 0.53% on June 30, 2001.

Accruing loans past due 90 days or more totaled $32 million on June 30, 2002, down from $46 million on December 31, 2001 and $41 million on June 30, 2001. These loans equaled 0.18% of net loans and leases on June 30, 2002, 0.27% on December 31, 2001, and 0.25% on June 30, 2001.

No loans to borrowers were considered potential problem loans at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001. The Company had one loan totaling $14.0 million on June 30, 2001 that was considered a potential problem loan. Potential problem loans are defined as loans presently on accrual, not contractually past due 90 days or more, and not restructured, but about which management has serious doubt as to the future ability of the borrower to comply with present repayment terms and which may result in the reporting of the loans as nonperforming assets.

The Company’s total recorded investment in impaired loans included in nonaccrual loans and leases amounted to $59 million on June 30, 2002, as compared to $80 million on December 31, 2001, and $63 million on June 30, 2001. The Company considers a loan to be impaired when the accrual of interest has been discontinued and it meets other applicable criteria under current accounting standards. The amount of the impairment is measured based on the present value of expected cash flows, the observable market price of the loan, or the fair value of the collateral. Impairment losses are included in the allowance for loan losses through a provision for loan losses. Included in the allowance for loan losses on June 30, 2002, December 31, 2001, and June 30, 2001, is a required allowance of $9 million, $18 million and $13 million, respectively, on $25 million, $20 million and $17 million, respectively, of the recorded investment in impaired loans.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The Company's allowance for loan losses was 1.43% of net loans and leases on June 30, 2002, compared to 1.50% on December 31, 2001 and 1.40% on June 30, 2001. Net charge-offs during the second quarter of 2002 were $15.4 million, or annualized 0.34% of average net loans and leases, compared to net charge-offs of $14.5 million (annualized 0.33%) for the first quarter of 2002, and $8.6 million (annualized 0.21%) for the second quarter of 2001. Net charge-offs for the first six months of 2002 were $29.8 million, or annualized, 0.34% of average net loans and leases, compared to $14.7 million (annualized 0.19%) for the first six months of 2001.

The allowance, as a percentage of nonaccrual loans and restructured loans, was 260.0% on June 30, 2002, compared to 236.7% on December 31, 2001 and 300.2% on June 30, 2001. The allowance, as a percentage of nonaccrual loans and accruing loans past due 90 days or more was 199.3% on June 30, 2002, compared to 168.2% on December 31, 2001 and 199.2% on June 30, 2001.

At June 30, 2002, the allowance for loan losses includes an allocation of $10 million related to commitments to extend credit for which the Company could separate the credit risk from that of any related loans on the balance sheet and for standby letters of credit. Commitments to extend credit on loans and standby letters of credit on June 30, 2002, December 31, 2001, and June 30, 2001 totaled $7,502 million, $6,812 million, and $7,506 million, respectively.

In analyzing the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses, management utilizes a comprehensive loan grading system to determine risk potential in the portfolio, and considers the results of independent internal and external credit reviews, historical charge-off experience, and changes in the composition and volume of the portfolio. Other factors, such as general economic conditions and collateral values, are also considered. Larger problem credits are individually evaluated to determine appropriate reserve allocations. Additions to the allowance are based upon the resulting risk profile of the portfolio developed through the evaluation of the above factors.

LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

The Company manages its liquidity to provide adequate funds to meet its anticipated financial obligations, including withdrawals by depositors and debt service requirements, as well as to fund customers’ demand for credit. Liquidity is provided primarily by the regularly scheduled maturities of the Company’s investment and loan portfolios. Management of the maturities of these portfolios is an important source of medium to long-term liquidity. The Company’s ability to raise funds in the capital markets through the securitization process also allows it to meet funding needs at a reasonable cost.

The Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) system is a major source of liquidity for each of the Company’s subsidiary banks. Zions First National Bank and The Commerce Bank of Washington are members of the FHLB of Seattle. California Bank & Trust, Nevada State Bank, and National Bank of Arizona are members of the FHLB of San Francisco. Vectra Bank Colorado is a member of the FHLB of Topeka. The FHLB allows member banks to borrow against their eligible loans to satisfy liquidity requirements.

As another source of liquidity, the Company’s core deposits, consisting of demand, savings and money market deposits and time deposits under $100,000, constituted 91.5% of total deposits on June 30, 2002, as compared to 89.9% on December 31, 2001 and 89.7% on June 30, 2001.

Maturing balances in loan portfolios provide flexibility in managing cash flows. Maturity management of those funds is an important source of medium to long-term liquidity. The Company’s ability to raise funds in the capital markets through the securitization process and by debt issuance allows the Company to take advantage of market opportunities to meet funding needs at a reasonable cost.

The parent company’s cash requirements consist primarily of debt service, operating expenses, income taxes, dividends to shareholders, and share repurchases. The parent’s cash needs are routinely met through dividends from subsidiaries, proportionate shares of current income taxes, management and other fees, unaffiliated bank lines, and debt issuance.

At June 30, 2002, $223.5 million of dividend capacity was available from subsidiaries to pay to the parent without having to obtain regulatory approval. Dividends received by the parent from subsidiaries were $88.8 million for the second quarter of 2002 and $120.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The parent also has a program to issue short-term commercial paper. At June 30, 2002 outstanding commercial paper was $339.0 million. At June 30, 2002, the parent had a revolving credit facility with a bank totaling $40 million and a margin borrowing facility totaling $14 million. The parent had $7 million outstanding on the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2002.

Zions First National Bank (“ZFNB”) provides a $5.1 billion liquidity facility for a fee to a qualified special purpose entity securities conduit (“conduit”). ZFNB also provides for a fee administrative and investment advisory services and hedge support to the conduit. The conduit purchases U.S. Government-backed and AAA rated securities. These assets are funded through the issuance of commercial paper. With certain limitations, ZFNB is required to advance funds to the conduit to repay maturing commercial paper upon the conduit’s inability to access the commercial paper market or upon a commercial paper market disruption. No amounts were outstanding under this liquidity facility at June 30, 2002.

On January 18, 2002, the Company’s board of directors authorized a repurchase of up to $55 million of the Company’s common stock. An additional repurchase of up to $50 million was authorized on July 18, 2002. On July 30, 2001, the Company’s board of directors authorized a repurchase of up to $50 million of the Company’s common stock. During the second quarter of 2002, the Company repurchased approximately 561


30

thousand common shares at a cost of $31.2 million. The Company repurchased approximately 481 thousand shares during the first quarter of 2002 at a cost of $25.3 million. For the year 2001, the Company repurchased approximately 883 thousand common shares at a cost of $46.5 million.

Interest rate sensitivity measures the Company’s financial exposure to changes in interest rates. Interest rate sensitivity is, like liquidity, affected by maturities of assets and liabilities. The Company assesses its interest rate sensitivity using duration and simulation analysis. Duration is a measure of the weighted-average expected lives of the discounted cash flows from assets and liabilities. Simulation is used to estimate net interest income over time using alternative interest rate scenarios.

The Company, through the management of maturities and repricing of its assets and liabilities and the use of certain derivative instruments, including interest rate caps, floors, futures, options and exchange agreements, attempts to manage the effect on net interest income of changes in interest rates. The prime lending and the LIBOR (London Interbank Offer Rate) curve, are the primary indices used for pricing the Company’s loans, and the 91-day Treasury bill rate is the index used for pricing many of the Company’s deposits. The Company does not hedge the prime/LIBOR/T-bill spread risk through the use of derivative instruments.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND DIVIDENDS

Total shareholders’ equity on June 30, 2002 was $2,337 million, an increase of 2.5% over the $2,281 million on December 31, 2001, and an increase of 6.4% over the $2,198 million on June 30, 2001. The Company’s tangible common equity ratio, tangible equity to tangible assets, was 6.03% at June 30, 2002 compared to 5.98% at December 31, 2001 and 6.05% at June 30, 2001. The ratio of average equity to average assets for the first six months of 2002 was 8.86% as compared to 8.82% for the same period in 2001. On June 30, 2002, the Company’s total risk-based capital ratio was 11.86%, as compared to 12.20% on December 31, 2001 and 11.63% on June 30, 2001. On June 30, 2002, the Company’s Tier I risk-based capital ratio was 8.05%, as compared to 8.25% on December 31, 2001 and 8.35% on June 30, 2001. The Company’s leverage ratio on June 30, 2002 was 6.48% compared to 6.56% on December 31, 2001 and 6.69% on June 30, 2001. The decrease in the capital ratios as of June 30, 2002 resulted mainly from the repurchase of common stock previously discussed and the loan growth experienced by the Company.

Dividends declared of $.20 per common share for the second quarter of 2002 were unchanged from the dividends declared for the first quarter of 2002 and each quarter during 2001. The common cash dividend payout of net income for the second quarter of 2002 was 22.4% compared to 38.9% for the first quarter of 2002 which was adjusted to reflect the effect of the goodwill impairment loss, and 25.2% for the second quarter of 2001.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

EX-10.18 3 dex1018.htm A&R 1996 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS STOCK OPTION PLAN Prepared by R.R. Donnelley Financial -- A&R 1996 Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan

AMENDED AND RESTATED ZIONS BANCORPORATION
1996 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS
STOCK OPTION PLAN

SECTION 1

PURPOSE OF THE PLAN

        The Zions Bancorporation Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “Plan”) is intended to provide a method whereby the non-employee voting directors (the “Non-Employee Directors”) of Zions Bancorporation (the “Company”), who are responsible for reviewing and monitoring the performance of the Company and the performance of the Company’s officers, may be encouraged to acquire a stock ownership in the Company, thereby promoting the interests of the Company and all its stockholders. Accordingly, the Company, during the term of the Plan, will grant Options (as defined in Section 3.2) to the Non-Employee Directors to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to the conditions hereinafter provided.

SECTION 2

ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

        2.1.       The Plan shall be administered by the Pension and Benefits Committee (the “Committee”) which consists of officers of the Company. The Committee shall keep records of action taken at its meetings.

        2.2.       The Committee shall interpret the Plan and prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures in connection with the operation of the Plan as it shall deem to be necessary and advisable for the administration of the Plan consistent with the purposes and terms of the Plan. All questions of interpretation and application of the Plan, or as to Options granted under the Plan, shall be subject to the determination of the Committee, which shall be final and binding.

        2.3.       Notwithstanding the above, the selection of the Non-Employee Directors to whom Options are to be granted, the timing of such grants, the number of shares subject to any Option, the exercise price of any Option, the periods during which any Option may be exercised and the term of any Option shall be as hereinafter provided, and the Committee shall have no discretion as to such matters.

        2.4.       Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no member of the Committee shall be eligible to receive Options granted under the Plan.




SECTION 3

ELIGIBILITY OF GRANTEES

        3.1.       Options shall be granted only to voting Non-Employee Directors of the Company who are not currently serving as full-time or part-time employees of the Company or any of its affiliates.

        3.2       Nothing in the Plan, in any option granted under the Plan (“Option”), or in any Option Agreement (as defined in Section 6.5) shall confer any right to any person to continue as a Non-Employee Director of the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the stockholders of the Company or the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) to elect and remove any Non-Employee Director at any time, with or without cause.

SECTION 4

STOCK AVAILABLE UNDER THE PLAN

        4.1.       The stock to be issued upon exercise of Options granted under the Plan shall be the Company’s common stock, without par value (“Common Stock”), that shall be made available either from authorized but unissued Common Stock or from Common Stock reacquired by the Company, including shares purchased in the open market. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available and reserved for the grant of Options pursuant to the Plan shall not exceed One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares. The limitations established by the preceding sentence shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 11 of the Plan.

        4.2.       If any Option granted under the Plan is cancelled by mutual consent or terminates or expires for any reason without having been exercised in full, the shares of Common Stock allocable to the unexercised portion of such Option may again be available for grant under the Plan.

SECTION 5

TYPE OF OPTION

        Only "nonstatutory stock options" shall be granted under the terms of the Plan. For purposes of the Plan, the term "nonstatutory stock options" shall mean an option which does not qualify under Section 422 or 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.


SECTION 6

GRANT OF OPTION

        6.1.       Each Non-Employee Director shall receive a grant of Options pursuant to this Plan on the first business day after the date such Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders. Thereafter, each Non-Employee Director shall automatically be granted Options


-2-



each year on the first business day following the day of the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company as provided in Section 6.2.

        6.2.       Each Non-Employee Director shall receive, on an annual basis, an Option to purchase One Thousand (1,000) shares of the Company’s Common Stock, subject to adjustment only as provided in Section 11 of the Plan. If the number of shares then remaining available for the grant of Options under the Plan is not sufficient for each Non-Employee Director to be granted an Option for One Thousand (1,000) shares (or the number of adjusted shares pursuant to Section 11), then each Non-Employee Director shall be granted an Option for a number of whole shares equal to the number of shares then remaining available divided by the number of Non-Employee Directors, disregarding any fractions of a share.

        6.3.       Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, each annual grant of an Option shall vest and become exercisable in four equal installments of Two Hundred Fifty (250) shares beginning six (6) months from the grant date and on each anniversary of the first vesting date.

        6.4.       Subject to Section 9, each Option shall be exercisable for ten (10) years from the date of grant and shall expire thereafter. An Option, to the extent exercisable at any time, may be exercised in whole or in part.

        6.5.       All Options shall be confirmed by an agreement, or an amendment thereto (“Option Agreement”), setting forth the terms and conditions which shall apply to such Options and which shall be executed on behalf of the Company by the Chief Executive Officer and by the grantee.

SECTION 7

OPTION PRICE

        7.1.       The Option price per share shall be One Hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value (as defined in Section 7.2) of one share of Common Stock on the date the Option is granted (the “Option Price”).

        7.2.       As used in this Plan, the term “Fair Market Value” shall be deemed to be the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock as reported on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations System (or the principal United States securities exchange registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on which the Common Stock is listed at the time) (“NASDAQ”) on the date the Option is granted. If there is no NASDAQ closing price quotation for such date, then the Fair Market Value shall be determined by reference to the NASDAQ closing price quotation for the next preceding day on which a closing price quotation is reported by NASDAQ.

        7.3.       The Option Price shall be subject to adjustment only as provided in Section 11 of the Plan.


-3-



SECTION 8

EXERCISE OF OPTIONS

        8.1.       A Non-Employee Director electing to exercise an Option shall give written notice to the Company of such election and of the number of shares of Common Stock he or she has elected to purchase, in such form as the Committee shall have prescribed or approved, and shall at the time of exercise tender the full Option Price of the shares of Common Stock he or she has elected to purchase.

        8.2.       The Option Price shall be paid in full upon exercise and shall be payable in cash in United States dollars (including check, bank draft or money order); provided, however, that in lieu of cash, the person exercising the Option may pay the Option Price in whole or in part by delivering to the Company shares of the Common Stock owned by him or her and having a fair market value on the date of exercise equal to the cash Option Price applicable to his or her Option or by any other method as the Committee may provide from time to time, except that (i) any portion of the Option Price representing a fraction of a share shall in any event be paid in cash and (ii) no shares of the Common Stock which have been held for less than six (6) months may be delivered in payment of the Option Price of an Option. Delivery of shares may also be accomplished through the effective transfer to the Company of shares held by a broker or other agent.

        8.3.       Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.2 above, the exercise of the Option shall not be deemed to occur and no shares of Common Stock will be issued by the Company upon exercise of the Option until the Company has received payment of the Option Price in full.

        8.4.       Promptly after receiving payment of the Option Price of the shares of Common Stock as to which an Option is exercised, the Company shall deliver to the Non-Employee Director or to such other person as may then have the right to exercise the Option or as directed by the Non-Employee Director or such other person a certificate or certificates for the Common Stock for which the Options have been exercised.

        8.5.       A grantee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by his or her Option(s) until such Common Stock has been paid for in full and issued to such person. No adjustments shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary), whether in cash, securities or other property, or distributions or other rights, for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 11 hereof.

        8.6.       Payment of the Option Price with shares of Common Stock shall not increase the number of shares of Common Stock which may be issued under the Plan as provided in Section 4 above.

        8.7.       Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or any provision or limitation in any Option to the contrary, if there occurs a "Change of Control" of the Company (as defined below), then all outstanding Options held by grantees who, at the time of the Change in Control are Non-Employee Directors, may be exercised with respect to all shares of Common Stock subject


-4-



thereto at any time following the occurrence of such Change of Control of the Company until the expiration date specified in the applicable Option Agreement. As used herein, a “Change of Control” shall mean:

                       (a)  any Person (as defined in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) is or becomes the Beneficial Owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 20% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities (“Outstanding Company Voting Securities”); provided, however, that the event described in this subsection (a), shall not be deemed a Change in Control by virtue of any of the following acquisitions: (i) by the Company or any corporation controlled by the Company, (ii) by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any corporation controlled by the Company, (iii) by any underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities, (iv) pursuant to a Non-Qualifying Transaction (as defined in subsection (c) below), (v) pursuant to any acquisition by a Non-Employee Director or any group of persons including a Non-Employee Director (or any entity controlled by a Non-Employee Director or any group of persons including you), (vi) a transaction (other than one described in subsection (c) below) in which Outstanding Company Voting Securities are acquired from the Company, if a majority of the Continuing Directors (as defined in subsection (b) below) approve a resolution providing expressly that the acquisition pursuant to this clause (vi) does not constitute a Change in Control under this subsection (a) for any or all purposes of the Plan or (vii) any acquisition by a Person of 20% of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities as a result of an acquisition of common stock of the Company by the Company which, by reducing the number of shares of common stock of the Company outstanding, increases the proportionate number of shares beneficially owned by such Person to 20% or more of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities; provided, however, that if a Person shall become the beneficial owner of 20% or more of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities by reason of a share acquisition by the Company as described above and shall, after such share acquisition by the Company, become the beneficial owner of any additional shares of common stock of the Company, then such acquisition shall constitute a Change in Control;
 
                       (b)  individuals who, on April 26, 2002, constitute the Board (“Continuing Directors”), cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to such date whose election or nomination for election was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the Continuing Directors then on the Board (either by a specific vote or by approval of the proxy statement of the Company in which such person is named as a nominee for director, without written objection to such nomination) shall be a Continuing Director; provided, however, that no individual initially elected or nominated as a director of the Company as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to directors or as a result of any other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of any person other than the Board shall be deemed to be a Continuing Director;

-5-



                       (c)  the consummation of a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange or similar form of corporate transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that requires the approval of the Company’s stockholders, whether for such transaction or the issuance of securities in the transaction (a “Business Combination”), unless immediately following such Business Combination: (i) more than 50% of the total voting power of (x) the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (the “Surviving Corporation”), or (y) if applicable, the ultimate parent corporation that directly or indirectly has beneficial ownership of at least 95% of the voting securities eligible to elect directors of the Surviving Corporation (the “Parent Corporation”), is represented by Company Voting Securities that were outstanding immediately prior to such Business Combination (or, if applicable, is represented by shares into which such Company Voting Securities were converted pursuant to such Business Combination), and such voting power among the holders thereof is in substantially the same proportion as the voting power of such Company Voting Securities among the holders thereof immediately prior to the Business Combination, (ii) no person (other than any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Surviving Corporation or the Parent Corporation), is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 20% or more of the total voting power of the outstanding voting securities eligible to elect directors of the Parent Corporation (or, if there is no Parent Corporation, the Surviving Corporation) and (iii) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the Parent Corporation (or, if there is no Parent Corporation, the Surviving Corporation) following the consummation of the Business Combination are Continuing Directors (any Business Combination which satisfies all of the criteria specified in (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall be deemed to be a “Non-Qualifying Transaction”); provided, however, that if Continuing Directors constitute a majority of the Board immediately following the occurrence of a Business Combination, then a majority of Continuing Directors in office prior to the Consummation of the Business Combination may approve a resolution providing expressly that such Business Combination does not constitute a Change in Control under this subsection (c) for any and all purposes of the Plan;
 
                       (d)  the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or
 
                       (e)  the consummation of an agreement (or agreements) providing for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets other than a sale or disposition which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such sale or disposition.

SECTION 9

RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS

        9.1.       No Option shall be assignable or transferable by the grantee, and no right or interest of any grantee shall be subject to any lien, obligation or liability of the Non-Employee Director except by Will, or if the Grantee dies intestate, by the laws of descent and distribution of the state of domicile of the grantee at the time of death. All Options shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the grantee only by the grantee or the grantee’s guardian, conservator or legal representative. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, subject to the requirements of applicable law or any stock exchange, a Non-Employee Director may transfer any Options granted to him pursuant to the Plan to one or more of his or her immediate family members or to trusts established in whole or in part for the benefit of the Non-Employee Director and/or one or more of such immediate family members. During the lifetime of the Non-Employee Director, Options shall be exercisable only by the Non-Employee Director or by the immediate family member or trust to whom such Options have been transferred in accordance with this Section 9.1.

        10.5.       Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 10 or any other provision of the Plan or any Option Agreement, the Board shall have the power to amend the Plan in any manner deemed necessary or advisable for the Options granted under the Plan to qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 (or any successor rule relating to exemption from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act), and any such amendment shall, to the extent deemed necessary or advisable by the Board, be applicable to any outstanding Options theretofore granted under the Plan notwithstanding any contrary provisions contained in any Option Agreement. In the event of any such amendment to the Plan, the holder of any Option outstanding under the Plan shall, upon request of the Committee and as a condition to the exercisability of such Option, execute a conforming amendment in the form prescribed by the Committee to their Option Agreement within such reasonable time as the Committee shall specify in such request. Pursuant to this provision, the Board may take any action with respect to this Plan or any Option granted hereunder that may be taken by the Committee if it determines, in its sole discretion, that such action should be taken by the Board, rather than by the Committee, in order for the Options or the exercise thereof to qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 (or any successor rule relating to exemption from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act).

SECTION 11

CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION

        11.1.       In the event that the shares of stock of the Company, as presently constituted, shall be changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares of stock or other securities of the Company or of another corporation (whether by reason of merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification, split-up, combination of shares or otherwise) or if the number of such shares of stock shall be increased through the payment of a stock dividend, then, subject to the provisions of Section 11.3 below, the Committee may make such substitution for or addition to each share of stock of the Company which was theretofore appropriated, or which thereafter may become subject to an Option under the Plan, the number and kind of shares of stock or other securities into which each outstanding share of the stock of the Company shall be so changed or for which each such share shall be exchanged or to which each such share shall be entitled, as the case may be. Outstanding Options shall also be amended as to price and other terms, as may be necessary to reflect the foregoing events.

        11.2.       Fractional shares resulting from any adjustment in Options pursuant to this Section 11 shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

        11.3.       To the extent that the foregoing adjustments relate to stock or securities of the Company, such adjustments shall be made by the Committee, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Notice of any adjustment shall be given by the Company to each holder of an Option which shall have been so adjusted.

        11.4.       The grant of an Option pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganization or changes of its


-9-



capital or business structure, to merge, to consolidate, to dissolve, to liquidate or to sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

        11.5.       Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of any class, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of any class shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of Common Stock subject to any grant of Options.

SECTION 12

MISCELLANEOUS

        12.1.       Each Option under the Plan shall be subject to the requirement that if at any time the Committee shall determine that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares issuable or deliverable thereunder upon any stock exchange or under any applicable law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition thereof, or in connection therewith, no such Option may be exercised or shares issued or delivered unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee.

        12.2.       The Committee’s determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made by it selectively among persons who receive, or are eligible to receive, Options (whether or not such persons are similarly situated).

        12.3.       All rights and obligations under the Plan shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Utah without giving effect to principles of conflict of laws.

        12.4.       If any of the provisions of this Plan or any Option Agreement is finally held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable (whether in whole or in part), such provision shall be deemed modified to the extent, but only to the extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability and the remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby; provided that, if any of such provisions is finally held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable because it exceeds the maximum scope determined to be acceptable to permit such provision to be enforceable, such provision shall be deemed to be modified to the minimum extent necessary to modify such scope in order to make such provision enforceable hereunder.

        12.5.       Except as expressly provided therein, neither the Plan nor any Option Agreement shall confer on any person other than the Company and the grantee of any Option any rights or remedies thereunder.

        12.6.       The terms of this Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and its successors and assigns.
