Item 9.    Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On March 31, 2003, Wachovia Corporation (“Wachovia”) held a conference call/webcast, during which it discussed an ongoing inquiry by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding repurchases of Wachovia’s stock during the years 1996 through 2001. Wachovia makes the following clarification to assist investors in understanding that discussion: as Wachovia has previously disclosed in its SEC filings, Wachovia sometimes effects share repurchases through the use of forward purchase contracts entered into with a counterparty under which the counterparty buys shares in the market over time and agrees to sell an equal number of shares to Wachovia in the future. Some of the shares repurchased by Wachovia between 1996 and 2001, including after the April 2001 merger announcement, were acquired through this method, and Wachovia believes that those share purchases are within the scope of the SEC’s inquiry.
