2 4 PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Mellon Bank Corporation (the "Corporation") is a multibank holding company incorporated under the laws of Pennsylvania in August 1971 and registered under the Federal Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Corporation provides a comprehensive range of financial products and services in domestic and selected international markets. The Corporation's banking subsidiaries are located in Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Delaware, Maryland, and New Jersey. Other subsidiaries are located in key business centers throughout the United States and abroad. At December 31, 1995, the Corporation was the twenty-third largest bank holding company in the United States in terms of assets. The Corporation's principal direct subsidiaries are Mellon Bank, N.A. ("Mellon Bank"), The Boston Company, Inc. ("TBC"), Mellon Bank (DE) National Association, Mellon Bank (MD), Mellon PSFS (NJ) National Association and a number of companies known as Mellon Financial Services Corporation. The Corporation also owns a federal savings bank headquartered in New Jersey, Mellon Bank, F.S.B. The Dreyfus Corporation ("Dreyfus"), one of the nation's largest mutual fund companies, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mellon Bank. The Corporation's banking subsidiaries engage in retail financial services, commercial banking, trust and investment management services, residential real estate loan financing, mortgage servicing, mutual fund activities and various securities-related activities. Mellon Bank, which has its executive offices in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, became a subsidiary of the Corporation in November 1972. With its predecessors, Mellon Bank has been in business since 1869. Mellon Bank is comprised of six operating regions throughout Pennsylvania. Dreyfus, headquartered in New York, New York, serves primarily as an investment adviser, manager and administrator of mutual funds. TBC, through Boston Safe Deposit and Trust Company ("BSDT") and other subsidiaries, engages in the business of institutional trust and custody, institutional asset management, private investment management and banking services. TBC is headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. Mellon Bank (DE) National Association, headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware, serves consumer and small to midsize commercial markets throughout Delaware and provides nationwide cardholder processing services. Mellon Bank (MD) is headquartered in Rockville, Maryland, and serves consumer and small to midsize commercial markets throughout Maryland. Mellon Bank (MD) has a Maryland state charter and is a member of the Federal Reserve System. Mellon Bank, F.S.B., headquartered in Paramus, New Jersey, provides corporate trust and personal trust services and serves consumer and small to midsize commercial markets. Mellon PSFS (NJ) National Association serves consumer and small to midsize commercial markets in southern New Jersey. The Corporation's banking subsidiaries operate 1,129 domestic retail banking locations, including 459 retail offices. The deposits of the national banking subsidiaries, BSDT, Mellon Bank (MD) and Mellon Bank, F.S.B. are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") to the extent provided by law. Other subsidiaries of the Corporation provide a broad range of bank-related services -- including equipment leasing, commercial loan financing, stock transfer services, cash management and numerous trust and investment management services. The types of financial products and services offered by the Corporation's subsidiaries are subject to change. For analytical purposes, management has focused the Corporation into four core business sectors: Consumer Investment Services, Consumer Banking Services, Corporate/Institutional Investment Services and Corporate/Institutional Banking Services. Further information regarding the Corporation's core business sectors, as well as certain non-core sectors such as Real Estate Workout, is presented in the Business Sectors section on pages 26 through 28 of the Corporation's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders, which pages are incorporated herein by reference. A brief discussion of the business sectors is presented on the following page. There is considerable interrelationship among these sectors. 3 5 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (CONTINUED) CONSUMER INVESTMENT SERVICES The Corporation provides a broad array of personal trust services, investment services and retail mutual funds to consumers. These products and services are offered principally through the private asset management trust group of Mellon Bank and BSDT, through Dreyfus and throughout the Corporation's retail banking network. CONSUMER BANKING SERVICES The Consumer Banking Services sector includes consumer lending, business banking, branch banking, credit card, mortgage loan origination and servicing, and jumbo residential mortgage lending. The consumer lending, branch banking and small business banking services primarily are offered through the Corporation's retail banking network which is comprised of 396 retail branches, 62 supermarket facilities, 670 ATM's, 9 loan sales offices and a telephone banking center. This network is primarily located in the Central Atlantic region of the United States. This banking network provides a full range of products to individuals including short- and long-term credit facilities, credit cards, mortgages, safe deposit facilities and access to ATM's. Jumbo residential mortgage lending is offered nationally through the private asset management representative offices. This sector also includes the core servicing function of the Corporation's mortgage banking operations located in Kansas City, Houston, Denver, Cleveland and Paramus, through which the Corporation originates and services residential and commercial mortgages for institutional investors and makes residential loans nationwide. CORPORATE/INSTITUTIONAL INVESTMENT SERVICES The Corporate/Institutional Investment Services sector serves the institutional markets (including employee benefit plans) by providing institutional trust and custody, institutional asset and institutional mutual fund management and administration, securities lending, foreign exchange, cash management and stock transfer services. The Corporation's subsidiaries provide trust and investment management services while operating under the umbrella name "Mellon Trust"; in addition, the subsidiaries provide institutional mutual fund management through Dreyfus. The Corporation also owns a number of subsidiaries that provide a variety of active and passive equity and fixed income investment management services, including management of international securities. Through the Global Cash Management department, the Corporation offers a broad range of cash management services, including remittance processing, collections and disbursements, check processing and electronic services. The Corporation's subsidiaries also provide services relating primarily to defined contribution employee benefit plans under the umbrella name "Dreyfus Retirement Services." Stock transfer services are provided in the United States through its joint venture operating under the name of Chemical Mellon Shareholder Services and in Canada through The R-M Trust Company. CORPORATE/INSTITUTIONAL BANKING SERVICES Corporate/Institutional Banking Services includes large corporate and middle market lending, asset-based lending, certain capital markets and leasing activities, commercial real estate lending and insurance premium financing. The Corporation provides lending and other institutional banking services to domestic and selected international markets through its Corporate Banking, Institutional Banking, Capital Markets and Leasing departments. These markets generally include large domestic commercial and industrial customers, U.S. operations of foreign companies, multinational corporations, state and local governments and various financial institutions (including banks, securities broker/dealers, insurance companies, finance companies and mutual funds). The Corporation also offers corporate finance and rate risk management products; syndicates, participates out and sells loans; offers a variety of capital markets products and services, including private placement and money market transactions; and provides equipment leasing, financing and lease advisory services. The Corporation maintains foreign offices in London, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Toronto, and Grand Cayman, British West Indies. Through these offices, the Corporation conducts trade finance activities, engages in correspondent banking and provides corporate banking and capital markets services. Included in this sector is a nationwide asset-based lending division which provides secured lending, principally through accounts receivable 4 6 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (CONTINUED) and inventory financing. As part of this sector, Middle Market Banking serves companies with annual sales between $10 million and $250 million and the health care industry on a national basis. Real Estate lending consists of the Corporation's commercial real estate lending activities, through which it originates financing for residential, commercial, multi-family and other products. The Corporation provides property and casualty insurance premium financing to small, midsize and large companies in the United States through the AFCO Credit Corporation and in Canada through CAFO. The 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders summarizes principal locations and operating entities on pages 18 and 19, which pages are incorporated herein by reference. Exhibit 21.1 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K presents a list of the subsidiaries of the Corporation as of December 31, 1995. SUPERVISION AND REGULATION The Corporation, as a bank holding company, is regulated under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "Act"), and is subject to the supervision of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve Board"). Generally, the Act limits the business of bank holding companies to banking, managing or controlling banks, performing certain servicing activities for subsidiaries, and engaging in such other activities as the Federal Reserve Board may determine to be closely related to banking and a proper incident thereto. Certain of the Corporation's subsidiaries are themselves bank holding companies under the Act. As a result of its Mellon Bank, F.S.B. subsidiary, the Corporation is also regulated under the Home Owners' Loan Act of 1933 as a savings and loan holding company. The Corporation's national banking subsidiaries are subject to primary supervision, regulation and examination by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the "OCC"); BSDT is subject to supervision, regulation and examination by the FDIC and the Massachusetts Office of the Commissioner of Banks; Mellon Bank (MD) is subject to supervision, regulation and examination by the Federal Reserve Board and the State of Maryland; and Mellon Bank, F.S.B. is subject to supervision, regulation and examination by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"). Mellon Securities Trust Company, The Dreyfus Trust Company and Boston Safe Deposit and Trust Company of New York are New York trust companies and are supervised by the New York State Department of Banking. Boston Safe Deposit and Trust Company of California is a California trust company and is supervised by the State of California Banking Department. The Corporation's nonbank subsidiaries engaged in securities related activities are regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Dreyfus Investment Services Corporation, a subsidiary of the Corporation, conducts a brokerage operation, and Mellon Financial Markets, Inc., a subsidiary of the Corporation, engages in securities activities permitted to bank holding company subsidiaries under Section 20 of the Glass-Steagall Act. Dreyfus Service Corporation, a subsidiary of Dreyfus, acts as a broker/dealer for the sale of shares of mutual funds, including the Dreyfus family of mutual funds. Dreyfus Investment Services Corporation, Mellon Financial Markets, Inc. and Dreyfus Service Corporation are registered broker/dealers and members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., a securities industry self-regulatory organization. Certain subsidiaries of the Corporation are registered investment advisers under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and, as such, are supervised by the SEC. They are also subject to various federal and state laws and regulations and to the laws of any countries in which they do business. These laws and regulations are primarily intended to benefit clients and fund shareholders and generally grant supervisory agencies broad administrative powers, including the power to limit or restrict the carrying on of business for failure to comply with such laws and regulations. In such event, the possible sanctions which may be imposed include the suspension of individual employees, limitations on engaging in business for specific periods, the revocation of the registration as an investment adviser, censures and fines. Each investment company (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) which is advised by a subsidiary of the Corporation, including the Dreyfus family of mutual funds, is registered with the SEC, and the shares of most are qualified for sale in all states in the 5 7 SUPERVISION AND REGULATION (CONTINUED) United States and the District of Columbia, except for investment companies that offer products only to residents of a particular state or of a foreign country and except for certain investment companies which are exempt from such registration or qualification. Certain of the Corporation's public finance activities are regulated by the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board. Mellon Bank and certain of the Corporation's other subsidiaries are registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC") as commodity pool operators or commodity trading advisors and, as such, are subject to CFTC regulation. The Corporation and its subsidiaries are subject to an extensive system of banking laws and regulations that are intended primarily for the protection of the customers and depositors of the Corporation's subsidiaries rather than holders of the Corporation's securities. These laws and regulations govern such areas as permissible activities, reserves, loans and investments, and rates of interest that can be charged on loans. The Corporation and its subsidiaries also are subject to general U.S. federal laws and regulations and to the laws and regulations of the states or countries in which they conduct their businesses. Set forth below are brief descriptions of selected laws and regulations applicable to the Corporation and its subsidiaries. The references are not intended to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the statutes and regulations themselves. Changes in applicable law or regulation may have a material effect on the business of the Corporation. On September 29, 1994, the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (the "Interstate Act") was enacted into Federal law. Under the Interstate Act, bank holding companies are permitted to acquire banks located in any state. The Interstate Act also provides for the nationwide interstate branching of banks. Under the Interstate Act, both national and state-chartered banks will be permitted to merge across state lines (and thereby create interstate branches) commencing June 1, 1997. States are permitted to "opt-out" of the interstate branching authority by taking action prior to the commencement date. States may also "opt-in" early (i.e., prior to June 1, 1997) to the interstate branching provisions. Pennsylvania has chosen to "opt-in" early, effective July 6, 1995, thereby enabling Pennsylvania banks to merge with out-of-state banks to create interstate branches inside or outside Pennsylvania. In addition, Pennsylvania permitted de novo branching into and out of Pennsylvania as long as the law of the other state involved is reciprocal in this regard. There are certain restrictions on the ability of the Corporation and certain of its non-bank affiliates to borrow from, and engage in other transactions with, its banking subsidiaries and on the ability of such banking subsidiaries to pay dividends to the Corporation. These restrictions are discussed in note 18 of the Notes to Financial Statements on page 84 of the Corporation's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders. This note is incorporated herein by reference. The OCC has authority under the Financial Institutions Supervisory Act to prohibit national banks from engaging in any activity which, in the OCC's opinion, constitutes an unsafe or unsound practice in conducting their businesses. The Federal Reserve Board has similar authority with respect to the Corporation, Mellon Bank (MD) and the Corporation's non-bank subsidiaries, including Mellon Securities Trust Company, a member of the Federal Reserve System. The FDIC has similar authority with respect to BSDT, and the OTS has similar authority with respect to Mellon Bank, F.S.B. Substantially all of the deposits of the banking subsidiaries are insured up to applicable limits by the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") of the FDIC and are subject to deposit insurance assessments to maintain the BIF. The FDIC has adopted a risk-based assessment system to replace the previous flat rate system. The risk based system imposes insurance premiums based upon a matrix that takes into account a bank's capital level and supervisory rating. In November 1995, the FDIC approved a reduction in assessment rates imposed on banks for BIF deposit insurance. As a result of such reduction, such rates now range from zero for each $100 of domestic deposits for the healthiest institutions to $.27 for each $100 of domestic deposits for the weakest institutions. The Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act ("FIRREA") contains a "cross-guarantee" provision that could result in any insured depository institution owned by the Corporation being assessed for losses incurred by the 6 8 SUPERVISION AND REGULATION (CONTINUED) FDIC in connection with assistance provided to, or the failure of, any other depository institution owned by the Corporation. Also, under Federal Reserve Board policy, the Corporation is expected to act as a source of financial strength to each of its banking subsidiaries and to commit resources to support each such bank in circumstances where such bank might not be in a financial position to support itself. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") substantially revised the depository institution regulatory and funding provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and made revisions to several other federal banking statutes. Among other things, federal banking regulators are required to take prompt corrective action in respect of depository institutions that do not meet minimum capital requirements. FDICIA identifies the following capital tiers for financial institutions: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized. Rules adopted by the federal banking agencies under FDICIA provide that an institution is deemed to be: "well capitalized" if the institution has a Total risk-based capital ratio of 10.0% or greater, a Tier I risk-based ratio of 6.0% or greater, and a leverage ratio of 5.0% or greater, and the institution is not subject to an order, written agreement, capital directive, or prompt corrective action directive to meet and maintain a specific level for any capital measure; "adequately capitalized" if the institution has a Total risk-based capital ratio of 8.0% or greater, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 4.0% or greater, and a leverage ratio of 4.0% or greater (or a leverage ratio of 3.0% or greater if the institution is rated composite 1 in its most recent report of examination, subject to appropriate Federal banking agency guidelines), and the institution does not meet the definition of a well capitalized institution; "undercapitalized" if the institution has a Total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 8.0%, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio that is less than 4.0% or a leverage ratio that is less than 4.0% (or a leverage ratio that is less than 3.0% if the institution is rated composite 1 in its most recent report of examination, subject to appropriate Federal banking agency guidelines) and the institution does not meet the definition of a significantly undercapitalized or critically undercapitalized institution; "significantly undercapitalized" if the institution has a Total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 6.0%, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio that is less than 3.0%, or a leverage ratio that is less than 3.0% and the institution does not meet the definition of a critically undercapitalized institution; and "critically undercapitalized" if the institution has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is equal to or less than 2.0%. FDICIA imposes progressively more restrictive constraints on operations, management and capital distributions, depending on the capital category in which an institution is classified. At December 31, 1995, all of the Corporation's banking subsidiaries fell into the well capitalized category based on the ratios and guidelines noted above. The appropriate Federal banking agency may, under certain circumstances, reclassify a well capitalized insured depository institution as adequately capitalized. The appropriate agency is also permitted to require an adequately capitalized or undercapitalized institution to comply with the supervisory provisions as if the institution were in the next lower category (but not treat a significantly undercapitalized institution as critically undercapitalized) based on supervisory information other than the capital levels of the institution. The statute provides that an institution may be reclassified if the appropriate Federal banking agency determines (after notice and opportunity for hearing) that the institution is in an unsafe or unsound condition or deems the institution to be engaging in an unsafe or unsound practice. Legislation enacted in August 1993 provides that depositors and certain claims for administrative expenses and employee compensation against an insured depository institution would be afforded a priority over other general unsecured claims against such an institution in the "liquidation or other resolution" of such an institution by any receiver. During recent years, regulatory guidelines have been adopted, and legislation has been proposed in Congress, to address concerns regarding retail sales by banks of various nondeposit investment products, including mutual funds. Legislative and regulatory attention to these matters is likely to continue, and may intensify, in the future. Although existing statutory and regulatory requirements in this regard have not had a significant effect on the Corporation's business, there can be no assurance that future requirements will not have such an effect. Various other legislation, including proposals to 7 9 SUPERVISION AND REGULATION (CONTINUED) restructure the banking regulatory system and the separation of banking from certain securities and other commercial activities, are from time to time introduced in Congress. The Corporation cannot determine the ultimate effect that any such potential legislation, if enacted, would have upon its financial condition or operations. COMPETITION The Corporation and its subsidiaries continue to be subject to intense competition in all aspects and areas of their businesses from banks; other domestic and foreign depository institutions, such as savings and loan associations, savings banks and credit unions; and other providers of financial services, such as finance, mortgage and leasing companies, brokerage firms, credit card companies, money market mutual funds, investment companies and insurance companies. The Corporation also competes with nonfinancial institutions, including retail stores and manufacturers of consumer products that maintain their own credit programs, as well as governmental agencies that make available loans to certain borrowers. Also, in the Corporate/Institutional Investment Services business sector, the Corporation competes with a wide range of technologically capable service providers, such as data processing and outsourcing firms. In terms of domestic deposits, Mellon Bank is the second largest commercial banking institution in Pennsylvania where it competes with approximately 235 commercial banks, 130 thrifts and numerous credit unions and consumer finance institutions. Mellon Bank competes with approximately 30 commercial banks and 40 thrifts in the six-county Pittsburgh area of Western Pennsylvania. Mellon Bank competes with approximately 35 commercial banks and 50 thrifts in the five-county Philadelphia area, one of the largest metropolitan areas in the United States. In most of the markets in which the Corporation's banking subsidiaries operate, they compete with large regional and other banking organizations in making commercial, industrial and consumer loans, and in providing products and services. Competition has continued to increase in recent years in many areas in which the Corporation and its subsidiaries operate, in substantial part because other types of financial institutions and other entities are increasingly engaging in activities traditionally engaged in by commercial banks. Commercial banks face significant competition in acquiring quality assets due to such factors as the increase in commercial paper and long-term debt issued by industrial companies, increased activities by finance companies, foreign banks and credit unions, and the increased lending powers granted to and employed by many types of thrift institutions and credit unions. Commercial banks also face competition in attracting deposits at reasonable prices due to the activities of money market funds; increased activities of non-bank deposit takers, including brokerage firms; alternatives presented by foreign banks; and the increased availability of demand deposit type accounts at thrift institutions and credit unions. Unlike the Corporation, many of these competitors, with the particular exception of thrift institutions, are not subject to regulation as extensive as that described under the "Supervision and Regulation" section and, as a result, they may have a competitive advantage over the Corporation in certain respects. EMPLOYEES The Corporation and its subsidiaries had 24,300 full-time equivalent employees in December 1995. Statistical Disclosure by Bank Holding Companies Exchange Act Industry Guide 3 ("Guide 3") requires that the following statistical disclosures be made in Annual Reports on Form 10-K filed by bank holding companies.

C. Risk Elements Information required by this section of Guide 3 is presented in the Credit Risk section of the Corporation's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders on pages 49 through 58, which portions are incorporated herein by reference. IV. Summary of Loan Loss Experience The Corporation employs various estimation techniques in developing the credit loss reserve. Management reviews the specific circumstances of individual loans subject to more than the customary potential for exposure to loss. In establishing the level of the reserve, management also identifies market concentrations, changing business trends, industry risks, and current and anticipated specific and general economic factors that may adversely affect collectibility. Other factors considered in determining the level of the reserve include: trends in portfolio volume, quality, maturity and composition; historical loss experience; lending policies; new products; the status and amount of nonperforming and past-due loans and adequacy of collateral. In addition, management assesses volatile factors such as interest rates and real estate market conditions that may significantly alter loss potential. The loss reserve methodology also provides for a portion of the reserve to act as an additional buffer against credit quality deterioration or risk of estimation error. Based on this evaluation, management believes that the credit loss reserve is adequate to absorb future losses inherent in the portfolio. 11 13 STATISTICAL DISCLOSURE BY BANK HOLDING COMPANIES (CONTINUED) The reserve is not specifically associated with individual loans or portfolio segments. Thus, the reserve is available to absorb credit losses arising from any individual loan or portfolio segment. When losses on specific loans are identified, management charges off the portion deemed uncollectible. In view of the fungible nature of the reserve and management's practice of charging off known losses, the Corporation does not maintain truly specific reserves on any loan. However, management has developed a loan loss reserve methodology designed to provide procedural discipline in assessing the adequacy of the reserve. The allocation of the Corporation's reserve for credit losses presented below is based on this loan loss reserve methodology.

Further information on the Corporation's credit policies, the factors that influenced management's judgment in determining the level of the reserve for credit losses, and the analyses of the credit loss reserve for the years 1991-1995 are set forth in the Financial Section of the Corporation's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders in the Credit Risk section on pages 49 and 50, the Reserve for Credit Losses and Review of Net Credit Losses section on pages 57 and 58, in note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements under Reserve for Credit Losses on page 68 and in note 5 on page 73; which portions are incorporated herein by reference.

17 19 PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS The information required by this Item is set forth in the Corporation's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders in Liquidity and Dividends on pages 40 through 42, in Selected Quarterly Data on page 60, in note 18 of Notes to Financial Statements on page 84 and in General Information on page 102, which portions are incorporated herein by reference. In August 1989, the Corporation adopted a Shareholder Protection Rights Plan under which each shareholder receives one Right for each share of common stock ("voting stock") of the Corporation held. The Rights are currently represented by the certificates for, and trade only with, the voting stock. The Rights would separate from the voting stock and become exercisable only if a person or group acquires 20 percent or more of the voting power of the voting stock or ten days after a person or group commences a tender offer that would result in ownership of 20 percent or more of such voting power. At that time, each Right would entitle the holder to purchase for $200 (the "exercise price") one one-hundredth of a share of participating preferred stock. Each share of such preferred stock would be entitled to cumulative dividends equal to 1% per annum, plus the amount of dividends that would be payable on 100 shares of the Corporation's common stock, and would have a liquidation preference of the greater of 100 times the exercise price or the amount to be distributed in liquidation to a holder of 100 shares of the Corporation's common stock. Should a person or group actually acquire 20% or more of the voting power of the voting stock, each Right held by the acquiring person or group (or their transferees) would become void and each Right held by the Corporation's other shareholders would entitle those holders to purchase for the exercise price a number of shares of the Corporation's common stock having a market value of twice the exercise price. Should the Corporation be involved in a merger or similar transaction with a 20% owner or sell more than 50% of its assets or assets generating more than 50% of its operating income or cash flow to any person or group, each outstanding Right would then entitle its holder to purchase for the exercise price a number of shares of such other company having a market value of twice the exercise price. In addition, if any person or group acquires between 20% and 50% of the voting power of the voting stock, the Corporation may, at its option, exchange one share of common stock for each outstanding Right. The Rights are not exercisable until the above events occur and will expire on August 15, 1999, unless earlier exchanged or redeemed by the Corporation. The Corporation may redeem the Rights for $.01 per Right under certain circumstances. The distribution of the Rights was not a taxable event. ITEM 6.

EX-10.17 2 MELLON BANK 10-K405 1 EX-10.17 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN MELLON BANK, N.A. AND FRANK V. CAHOUET EFFECTIVE AS OF JULY 25, 1993 (AS AMENDED AND RESTATED EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 17, 1995) 2 THIS AGREEMENT, made effective as of July 25, 1993 by and between Mellon Bank, N.A. (the "Company"), a national banking association, and Frank V. Cahouet (the "Executive"), WITNESSETH THAT: WHEREAS, the Executive, who has served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Mellon Bank Corporation (the "Holding Company"), effective as of June 19, 1987, is willing to continue to serve in such capacity, and the Company desires to retain the Executive in such capacity on the terms and conditions herein set forth; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 1. EMPLOYMENT. The Company agrees to continue to employ the Executive, and the Executive agrees to continue to be employed by the Company, for the Term provided in Paragraph 3(a) below and upon the other terms and conditions hereinafter provided. The Executive hereby represents and warrants that he has the legal capacity to execute and perform this Agreement, that it is a valid and binding agreement, enforceable against him according to its terms, and that its execution and performance by him does not violate the terms of any existing agreement or understanding to which the Executive is a party. In addition, the Executive represents and warrants that he knows of no reason why he is not physically capable of performing his obligations under this Agreement in accordance with its terms. 2. POSITION AND RESPONSIBILITIES. During the Term, the Executive (a) agrees to serve as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Holding Company, and to be responsible for the general management of the affairs of the Company and the Holding Company, reporting directly to the respective Boards of Directors of the Company (the "Board") and the Holding Company, and as a member of such boards for 3 the period for which he is and shall from time to time be elected, (b) shall be given such authority as is appropriate to carry out the duties described above, and (c) agrees to serve, if elected, as an officer and director of any other subsidiary or affiliate of the Company or the Holding Company. 3. TERM AND DUTIES. (a) TERM OF EMPLOYMENT. The term of the Executive's employment under this Agreement shall be deemed to have commenced on July 25, 1993 and shall continue thereafter through December 31, 1998 (the "Term"). (b) DUTIES. During the Term, and except for illness or incapacity and reasonable vacation periods of no more than 4 weeks in any calendar year (or such other period as shall be consistent with the Company's policies for other key executives), the Executive shall devote all of his business time, attention, skill and efforts exclusively to the business and affairs of the Company and the Holding Company and their subsidiaries and affiliates, shall not be engaged in any other business activity, and shall perform and discharge well and faithfully the duties which may be assigned to him from time to time by the board of directors of the Company or the Holding Company; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the Executive from devoting time during reasonable periods required for: (i) serving, in accordance with the Company's policies and with the prior approval of the Board, as a director or member of a committee of any company or organization involving no actual or potential conflict of interest with the Company or the Holding Company or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) delivering lectures and fulfilling speaking engagements; 4 (iii) engaging in charitable and community activities; and (iv) investing his personal assets in businesses in which his participation is solely that of an investor in such form or manner as will not violate Section 7 below or require any services on the part of the Executive in the operation or the affairs of such business, provided, however, that such activities do not materially affect or interfere with the performance of the Executive's duties and obligations to the Company or the Holding Company. 4. COMPENSATION. For all services rendered by the Executive in any capacity required hereunder during the Term, including, without limitation, services as an executive, officer, director, or member of any committee of the Company, the Holding Company or any subsidiary, affiliate or division thereof, the Executive shall be compensated as follows: (a) BASE SALARY. The Company shall pay the Executive a fixed salary ("Base Salary") of $760,000 per annum, subject to such periodic review (which shall occur at least annually) and such periodic increases as the Board shall deem appropriate in accordance with the Company's customary procedures and practices regarding the salaries of senior officers; provided, however, in determining such increases, the Board shall take into consideration the base salaries of the chief executive officers of the 10 largest bank holding companies in the United States, ranked by total assets, the performance of which is substantially similar to that of the Holding Company. Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the customary payroll practices of the Company, but in no event less frequently than monthly. (b) BONUS. The Company shall pay the Executive such amounts, if any, as may be due under the terms of the Mellon Bank Corporation Profit Bonus Plan (or any successor plan), with such payments of bonus to be made in accordance with the terms of such bonus plan. For the Profit Bonus Plan award for 1994 (payable in 5 1995) and for future years, it is understood that the Executive may receive some portion of his Profit Bonus Plan award in the form of restricted stock or phantom stock units, such awards are to be made on the same terms as apply to other members of the Office of the Chairman. (c) STOCK OPTIONS. The Holding Company shall from time to time after the date of this Agreement consider the grant to the Executive of options to purchase shares of the Holding Company's Common Stock (the "Common Stock"). Such options shall be granted under and subject in all respects to the terms of the Holding Company's Long-Term Profit Incentive Plan (1981) (or any successor plan) and, in the event of retirement, shall be exercisable through their stated expiration date. (d) ADDITIONAL BENEFITS. Except as modified by this Agreement, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in all compensation or employee benefit plans or programs, and to receive all benefits, perquisites and emoluments for which any salaried employees are eligible under any plan or program, now or hereafter established and maintained by the Company or the Holding Company for senior officers, to the extent permissible under the general terms and provisions of such plans or programs and in accordance with the provisions thereof, including group hospitalization, health, dental care, senior executive life or other life insurance, travel or accident insurance, disability plans, tax-qualified or non-qualified pension, savings, thrift and profit-sharing plans, deferred compensation plans, termination pay programs, sick-leave plans, auto allowance or auto lease plans, and executive contingent compensation plans, including, without limitation, capital accumulation programs and stock purchase, restricted stock or stock option plans. Specifically, but not by way of limitation, the Company shall furnish the Executive, without cost to him, with life insurance for the benefit of the Executive's designated beneficiary in an amount at least equal to twice his Base Salary (without regard to any deferrals of Base Salary made by the Executive). 6 Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the amendment or termination of any such plan or program, on the condition that such amendment or termination is applicable generally to all of the senior officers of the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate and that no such amendment may result in a reduction of the amount of benefits provided to the Executive under any such plan or program or the life insurance provided for the benefit of the Executive's designated beneficiary. (e) PERQUISITES. The Company will also furnish the Executive, without cost to him, with (i) a Company-owned or leased automobile and driver, (ii) membership in one country club located within the Pittsburgh metropolitan area and one business club located in Pittsburgh, (iii) an annual physical examination of the Executive by a physician selected by the Executive, (iv) participation in the Company's matching gifts program, and (v) personal financial, investment or tax advice, not to exceed a reasonable sum per annum, to the extent costs or expenses of the Executive to be reimbursed are properly documented for Federal income taxation purposes to preserve any deduction for such reimbursements to which the Company may be entitled. 5. BUSINESS EXPENSES. The Company shall pay or reimburse the Executive for all reasonable travel or other expenses incurred by the Executive (and his spouse where there is a legitimate business reason for his spouse to accompany him) in connection with the performance of his duties and obligations under this Agreement, subject to the Executive's presentation of appropriate vouchers in accordance with such procedures as the Company may from time to time establish for senior officers and to preserve any deductions for Federal income taxation purposes to which the Company may be entitled. 7 6. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. (a) In the event the Executive's employment hereunder terminates due to either Permanent Disability, a Without Cause Termination, or a Constructive Discharge, the Company shall, as liquidated damages or severance pay, or both, continue, subject to the provisions of Section 7 below, to pay the Executive's Base Salary as in effect at the time of such termination from the date of termination until the end of the Term, provided, however, that in the case of Permanent Disability, such payments shall be offset by any amounts otherwise paid to the Executive under the Company's disability program generally available to other employees. In addition, earned but unpaid Base Salary as of the date of termination of employment shall be payable in full and the target bonus award (or, if higher, the bonus award the Executive would have received had he been employed throughout the bonus year), including any restricted stock or phantom stock units payable in lieu of any portion of the Profit Bonus Plan award, shall be payable on a pro-rated basis for the year in which such termination of employment occurs only. The Executive shall continue to participate through the end of the Term, or such longer period as shall be prescribed in any plan or program, in all compensation or employee benefit plans or programs maintained by the Company or the Holding Company in which he was participating on the date of termination, including group hospitalization, health, dental care, senior executive life or other life insurance, travel or accident insurance, disability plans, tax qualified savings plans, thrift and profit-sharing plans and deferred compensation plans, all in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable employee benefit plans in effect from time to time as applied to employees. The Executive shall continue to receive years of service credit under all tax-qualified or non-qualified retirement plans and related excess benefit plans maintained by the Company for the Executive through the end of the Term and shall be 100% vested in such plans as of the date of the termination of his employment. The Perquisites set forth in Paragraphs 4(e)(i), (ii) and (v) shall continue through the first anniversary of the Executive's termination of employment (except for the driver 8 which shall continue only for the 90-day period following the Executive's termination of employment). Any options to purchase shares of the Holding Company's Common Stock or shares of restricted stock which are unvested as of the date of the Executive's termination of employment shall continue to vest and be exercisable through the end of the Term and thereafter, as permitted by the applicable plan. The Executive shall have no duty or obligation to seek other employment through the end of the Term or thereafter. (b) In the event the Executive's employment hereunder terminates due to a Termination for Cause or the Executive terminates employment with the Company for reasons other than a Constructive Discharge, Permanent Disability or retirement pursuant to Section 8 below, earned but unpaid Base Salary as of the date of termination of employment shall be payable in full. However, no other payments shall be made, or benefits provided, by the Company under this Agreement except for stock options to the extent already vested and exercisable, and except for benefits, which have already become vested, under the Supplemental Pension provided in Section 8 of this Agreement and under the terms of employee benefit programs maintained by the Company or its affiliates for its employees generally. (c) For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the following meanings: (i) The term, "Termination for Cause", means, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, a termination of the Executive's employment by the Company by a vote of a majority of the Board members then in office, because the Executive has (a) been convicted of a criminal offense covered by Section 19 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. #1829, or (b) has entered a plea of nolo contendere thereto, or (c) has breached or failed to perform his duties hereunder, and such breach or failure to perform constitutes self-dealing, willful misconduct or recklessness, (within the meaning of 9 Section 1713(a) of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law, as amended), or a final determination has been reached that the Executive has violated the representations made in Section 1 above, or the provisions of Section 7, below; provided, however, that the Board has given the Executive advance notice of such Termination for Cause including the reasons therefor, together with a reasonable opportunity for the Executive to appear with counsel before the Board and to reply to such notice. (ii) The term, "Constructive Discharge", means a termination of the Executive's employment by the Executive due to a failure of the Company or its successors to fulfill the obligations under this Agreement in any material respect, including (a) any failure to elect or reelect or to appoint or reappoint the Executive to the offices of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Holding Company or as a member of each of their boards of directors or (b) any other material change by the Company and the Holding Company in the functions, duties or responsibilities of the Executive's position with the Company and the Holding Company which would reduce the ranking or level, dignity, responsibility, importance or scope of such position, (c) any imposition on the Executive of a requirement to be permanently based at a location more than fifty miles from the principal office of the Company without the consent of the Executive, or (d) any reduction without the consent of the Executive in the Executive's salary below the amount then provided for under Paragraph 4(a) hereof. (iii) The term "Without Cause Termination" means a termination of the Executive's employment by the Company, upon 30 days notice to the Executive, other than due to Permanent Disability or expiration of the Term and other than a Termination for Cause. 10 (iv) The term "Permanent Disability" means the inability of the Executive to work for a period of six full calendar months during any eight consecutive calendar months due to illness or injury of a physical or mental nature, supported by the completion by the Executive's attending physician of a medical certification form outlining the disability and treatment. 7. OTHER DUTIES OF EXECUTIVE DURING AND AFTER TERM. (a) CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. The Executive recognizes and acknowledges that certain information pertaining to the affairs, business, clients, or customers of the Holding Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates (any or all of such entities hereinafter referred to as the "Business"), as such information may exist from time to time, is confidential information and is a unique and valuable asset of the Business, access to and knowledge of which are essential to the performance of his duties under this Agreement. The Executive shall not, through the end of the Term or thereafter, except to the extent reasonably necessary in the performance of his duties under this Agreement, divulge to any person, firm, association, corporation or governmental agency, any information concerning the affairs, business clients, or customers of the Business (except such information as is required by law to be divulged to a government agency or pursuant to lawful process or such information which is or shall become part of the public realm through no fault of the Executive), or make use of any such information for his own purposes or for the benefit of any person, firm, association or corporation (except the Business) and shall use his reasonable best efforts to prevent the disclosure of any such information by others. All records, memoranda, letters, books, papers, reports, accountings or other data, and other records and documents relating to the Business, whether made by the Executive or otherwise coming into his possession are, shall be, and shall remain the property of the Business. No copies thereof shall be made which are not retained by the Business, and the Executive agrees, on termination of his 11 employment, or on demand of the Holding Company, to deliver the same to the Holding Company. (b) NON-COMPETE. Through the end of the Term, the Executive shall not without express prior written approval by order of the Board, directly or indirectly own or hold any proprietary interest in, or be employed by or receive remuneration from, any corporation, partnership, sole proprietorship or other entity engaged in competition with the Company, the Holding Company or any of their affiliates (a "Competitor"), other than for severance type benefits from entities constituting prior employers of the Executive. The Executive also agrees that he will not solicit for the account of any Competitor, any customer or client of the Company, the Holding Company or their affiliates, or, in the event of the Executive's termination of employment, any entity or individual that was such a customer or client during the 12 month period immediately preceding the Executive's termination of employment. The Executive also agrees not to act on behalf of any Competitor to interfere with the relationship between the Company, the Holding Company or their affiliates and their employees. For purposes of the preceding sentence, (i) the term, "Proprietary interest", means direct or indirect legal or equitable ownership, whether through stockholdings or otherwise, of an equity interest in a business, firm or entity other than ownership through mutual funds or other similar diversified vehicles; provided, however, that the Executive shall not be required to divest any previously acquired equity interest and (ii) an entity shall be considered to be "engaged in competition" if such entity is a commercial bank located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania or any other major money center commercial bank or major regional commercial bank, in either case, with principal offices in any state east of the Mississippi River. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that the Executive is subject to all policies and procedures of the Company and the Holding Company regarding investment in securities of competitors. 12 (c) REMEDIES. The Company's obligation to make payments or provide for or increase any benefits under this Agreement (except to the extent vested) shall cease upon any violation of the preceding provisions of this Section; provided, however, that the Executive shall first have the right to appear before the Board with counsel and that such cessation of payments or benefits shall require a vote of a majority of the Board members then in office, and provided, further, that in the event of a violation of the preceding provisions of this Section following a "change in control" (as defined for purposes of the severance arrangements for employees of the Company adopted by the Board in a resolution dated June 15, 1987) the Company's obligations to make payments or provide for any benefits under this Agreement shall cease only to the extent of the Executive's remuneration from subsequent employers, or income from self employment which is subject to FICA taxation, during the period liquidated damages or severance compensation is to be paid by the Company. The Executive's agreement as set forth in this Section 7 shall survive the Executive's termination of employment with the Company. 8. RETIREMENT. (a) The Executive may elect, upon not less than 12 months' advance written notice, to retire under this Agreement, if then in effect, on the first day of any month coincident with or after his attainment of age 62. In the event of such retirement, the Term and the Company's obligation to make payments under Section 4 above shall cease as of the retirement date, except for (i) earned but unpaid Base Salary which shall be payable in full and the target bonus award (or, if higher, the bonus award the Executive would have received had he been employed throughout the bonus year), including any restricted stock or phantom stock units payable in lieu of any portion of the Profit Bonus Plan award, which shall be payable on a pro-rated basis for the year of retirement, (ii) vested benefits under Company plans or programs maintained for employees generally and (iii) the delivery of shares or cash 13 upon the exercise of stock options held by the Executive pursuant to the terms of the Holding Company's stock option plan. In addition, the Company shall pay a monthly supplemental retirement benefit to the Executive, commencing immediately and continuing for the remainder of his life, which benefit shall be payable in the form of a 50% joint and survivor annuity which shall be unreduced for the actuarial value of the survivor's benefit. If the Executive's spouse at the time of his death is not more than three years younger than the Executive, the survivor benefit shall be equal to 50% of the Executive's benefit and shall be payable for the remainder of the spouse's life. If the Executive's spouse at the time of his death is more than three years younger than the Executive, the benefit payable to the survivor shall be reduced to a benefit having the same actuarial value as the benefit that would have been payable had the spouse been three years younger than the Executive. The Executive shall also have the right to elect a 100% joint and survivor annuity, on an actuarially-reduced basis or a lump-sum payment, on an actuarially-reduced basis (if the Executive makes a timely lump-sum election which avoids constructive receipt), or any other form of payment available or provided under the "Supplemental Plans" defined in this Paragraph. Actuarial reductions shall be based on the actual ages of the Executive and his spouse at the time of retirement. In the event that the Executive elects a form of payment other than the automatic 50% joint and survivor annuity or other than a lump sum payment, and remarries subsequent to retirement, the benefits payable under this Section shall be actuarially adjusted at the time of the Executive's death to reflect the age of the subsequent spouse. If the Executive elects a lump sum payment at retirement, no further benefits will be payable under this Section. The amount of the monthly retirement benefit as an unreduced 50% joint and survivor annuity shall be equal to the product of (A) the "Compensation Percentage" multiplied by (B) the Executive's "Final Average Compensation" multiplied by (C) the Executive's "Vesting Percentage", with such product reduced by (D) the total monthly amount of benefit (measured for purposes of this offset as if the Executive elected a 50% joint and survivor annuity upon retirement) provided to or in respect of the Executive under 14 all tax-qualified retirement plans and related excess benefit and other benefit restoration plans maintained by the Company or the Holding Company for the Executive, including the Mellon Bank Benefit Restoration Plan and the Mellon Bank IRC Section 401(a)(17) Plan (the "Supplemental Plans") and benefits paid pursuant to Section 4.7 of the Mellon Bank Corporation Elective Deferred Compensation Plan for Senior Officers, but not including payments of any compensation previously deferred under any deferred compensation plan of the Company or the Holding Company, or interest thereon, or payments from the Mellon Bank Corporation Retirement Savings Plan, a 401(k) plan. The Executive owns interest in life insurance policies (the "Policies") as a participant in the Mellon Bank Senior Executive Life Insurance Plan. The supplemental retirement benefit payable to the Executive hereunder shall be further reduced by the Executive's interest in the cash value of the Policies. This reduction shall be calculated in the same manner as under the Supplemental Plans. If Executive retires after he attains age 65, Executive shall be entitled for the period after he attains age 65 until his actual retirement date to receive both (A) an actuarial increase in the gross supplemental retirement benefit which would have been payable to him if he had retired when he attained age 65 and (B) an additional incremental gross supplemental retirement benefit, without actuarial increase, based on his additional service and increase, if any, in his Final Average Compensation subsequent to attaining age 65. The increases described in the preceding sentence shall be calculated in the manner illustrated in Appendix A hereto, using for purposes of clause (A) the actuarial factors set forth in the Mellon Bank Retirement Plan. For purposes of determining the benefit described in clause (A) above, Final Average Compensation may be determined based on Base Salary for the 36 consecutive months from June 1, 1994 to May 31, 1997 and Bonus Awards paid to the Executive for work performed in the 36-month period from January 1, 1995 to December 31, 1997, if such Base Salary and Bonus Awards result in a higher Final 15 Average Compensation than Final Average Compensation as described in Paragraph 8(e). This adjusted gross supplemental retirement benefit shall then be reduced by other benefits which are payable to Executive and Executive's interest in the cash value of Policies as of his actual retirement date in the manner described above in this Paragraph 8(a). The Executive shall elect the form of payment of his supplemental retirement benefit at the same time and subject to the same provisions (including timing requirements and all reductions and/or penalties for late elections) as provided under the Supplemental Plans. After retirement, the Executive (or beneficiary who is receiving payments) may elect to receive his remaining supplemental retirement benefits which are payable hereunder in a lump sum payment, calculated in the same manner and subject to the same reductions as under the Supplemental Plans. In the event that the Executive elects a form of payment of his supplemental retirement benefits which provides for payments to continue after his death and the Executive dies without having received all payments of supplemental retirement benefits that may be payable hereunder, then the unpaid balance of such benefits shall be paid in accordance with the form of payment elected by the Executive. Any such remaining payments shall be made to the Executive's beneficiary provided under the Supplemental Plans, subject to any contrary written instructions from the Executive designating a different beneficiary for such payments. (b) The Executive may also elect, upon not less than 12 months' advance written notice, to retire under this Agreement on the first day of any month coincident with or after his attainment of age 60. Benefits will be computed on the basis of the years of service, "Final Average Compensation", "Compensation Percentage" and "Vesting Percentage" determined at the date of such retirement prior to age 62 and shall be actuarially reduced from the unreduced full payment required under this Agreement at age 62 to reflect such early retirement. In the event of such 16 retirement, the Term and the Company's obligations to make payments under Section 4 above shall cease as of the retirement date. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Executive receive any payments under this Section 8 or be deemed to be retired from the Company while the Executive is entitled to payments under Paragraph 6(a). (d) As used in this Agreement, "Compensation Percentage" means 50% plus 2.5% for each full year of employment which the Executive has completed under this Agreement as of the date his active employment with the Company terminates, plus 2.5% for each full year the Executive receives payments under Paragraph 6(a) hereof (with such percentage pro-rated for the partial contract year in which such final termination of the Executive's employment occurs or in which such final payments under Paragraph 6(a) hereof are made, whichever shall be applicable). (e) As used in this Agreement, "Final Average Compensation" means the average monthly amount of the Executive's Base Salary and any bonus award for the 36 consecutive months of the Executive's employment by the Company, under this Agreement or prior agreements, which produces the highest average amount. The cash value of any portion of bonus payable as either restricted stock or phantom stock units (in lieu of any portion of the Profit Bonus Plan award) shall be determined on the date such restricted stock or phantom stock units are granted for purposes of determining Final Average Compensation. Any portion of the Executive's Base Salary and bonus award which is deferred by the Executive under prior agreements with the Company or under any Company or Holding Company employee benefit plan shall be included for purposes of determining Final Average Compensation. (f) As used in this Agreement, the term "Vesting Percentage" shall be determined from the following vesting schedule on the basis of the number of full months of 17 employment with the Company which the Executive has completed under this Agreement as of the date his active employment with the Company terminates plus the number of months during which the Executive receives payments under Paragraph 6(a). VESTING SCHEDULE
VESTING INTERVAL VESTING PERCENTAGE Less than 11 85% 11 or more 100%
In the event the Executive's employment is terminated during the first 11 months of the Term, the Executive's vesting percentage shall be 85% increased by a pro rata portion of the remaining 15% determined by dividing the number of whole months worked during such 11-month period by 11. In the event the Executive's termination of employment is due to death, prior to the commencement of the payment of pension benefits under this Section, and he shall be survived by a spouse, such spouse shall be entitled to receive a pre-retirement death benefit, payable in the form of a lifetime annuity, equal in value to the benefit which would have been payable to the Executive hereunder had he retired immediately prior to the date of his death and elected the unreduced 50% joint and survivor annuity provided under Paragraph (a) of this Section 8. If the Executive's spouse at the time of his death is more than three years younger than the Executive, the benefit payable to the survivor shall be reduced to a benefit having the same actuarial value as the benefit that would have been payable had the spouse been three years younger than the Executive. 18 9. LIMITATION AS TO AMOUNTS PAYABLE. (a) SECTION 280G LIMITATION. In the event that any payment, coverage or benefit provided under this Agreement would, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, not be deemed to be deductible in whole or in part in the calculation of the Federal income tax of the Company, or any other person making such payment or providing such coverage or benefit, by reason of Section 280G of the Code, the aggregate payments, coverages or benefits provided hereunder shall be reduced to the "safe harbor" level under Section 280G of the Code so that no portion of such amount which is paid to the Executive is not deductible by reason of Section 280G of the Code. Executive may determine which payments, coverages or benefits will be reduced in order to satisfy the "safe harbor" level under Section 280G. Furthermore, the Company shall hold such portions not paid to the Executive in escrow pending a final determination of whether such amounts would be deductible if paid to the Executive, and the Company shall use its best efforts to seek a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service that any portion of such payments, coverages or benefits not paid to the Executive pursuant to this Paragraph 9(a) would continue to be deductible if paid to the Executive and the Company shall pay to the Executive any portion of such amounts for which such a ruling is received. In the event the IRS will not rule on such matter, the Company shall pay to the Executive such amounts maintained in escrow pursuant to this Paragraph 9(a) as shall be determined at some point in time by a counsel, selected by the Company and the Executive, is likely to be deductible if paid to the Executive or shall be forfeited by the Executive in the event of a final determination by the IRS that such amounts are not deductible. For purposes of this Paragraph, the value of any non-cash benefit or coverage or any deferred or contingent payment or benefit shall be determined by the independent auditors of the Company in accordance with the principles of Section 280G of the Code. 19 (b) OFFSET. Within 90 days following any termination of his employment which constitutes a Without Cause Termination or Constructive Discharge (as such terms are defined in Paragraph 6(c)), Executive may elect, by written notice to Employer, to have the provisions of this Paragraph 9(b) apply to reduce the aggregate payments, coverages and benefits provided under this Agreement during the remainder of the Term of this Agreement following his termination of employment (hereafter the "Applicable Period"). If Executive does not make such election, this Paragraph 9(b) shall have no application or effect under this Agreement. If Executive elects to have this Paragraph 9(b) apply, the aggregate payments, coverages and benefits provided to Executive under this Agreement during the Applicable Period following his termination of employment shall be reduced by "mitigation" (as defined below) to comply with Regulations under Section 280G of the Code, including, in particular, Question and Answer 42(b). "Mitigation" shall mean that payments which are made and benefits which are provided by the Employer during the Applicable Period after termination of Executive's employment and which are attributable to the Applicable Period and not to any other period will be reduced by all earned income (within the meaning of Section 911(d)(2)(A) of the Code) received by Executive from persons or entities other than the Employer or from self employment during the Applicable Period. Not less frequently than annually (by December 31 of each year) during the Applicable Period, Executive shall account to the Employer with respect to all payments and benefits received by Executive from other employment or self employment during the Applicable Period which are required by reason of his duty of "mitigation" hereunder to be offset against payments or benefits received by Executive from the Employer during the Applicable Period. During the Applicable Period, if the Employer has paid amounts in excess of those to which Executive was entitled (after giving effect to the offsets provided above), Executive shall reimburse the Employer for such excess by December 31 of such year. 20 If Executive receives earned income from other employment or self employment during only a portion, but not all, of the Applicable Period, only payments which are made and benefits which are provided by the Employer that are attributable to the portion of the Applicable Period during which Executive receives earned income from other employment or self employment shall be subject to reduction and offset as provided above. If Executive elects to have this Paragraph 9(b) apply, Executive may elect, at any time, to be subject to a greater (but no lesser) duty of "mitigation" than otherwise provided above in this Paragraph 9(b), if counsel selected by Executive determines that such greater duty of "mitigation" is advisable in order to comply with Regulations under Section 280G. 10. LEGAL FEES, RELATED EXPENSES. The Company agrees to promptly reimburse the Executive for his reasonable legal and consulting fees incurred in the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement. In addition, in the event of any litigation or other proceeding between the Company and the Executive with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the enforcement of rights hereunder, the Company shall reimburse the Executive for his reasonable costs and expenses relating to such litigation or other proceeding, including attorneys' fees and expenses, provided that such litigation or proceeding results in any: (i) settlement requiring the Company to make a payment to the Executive; or (ii) judgment, order or award in favor of the Executive, unless such judgment, order or award is subsequently reversed on appeal or in a collateral proceeding. 11. WITHHOLDING TAXES. The Company may directly or indirectly withhold from any payments made under this Agreement all Federal, state, city or other taxes as shall be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling. 21 12. CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, OR SALE OF ASSETS. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the Company from consolidating or merging into or with, or transferring all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation which assumes this Agreement and all obligations and undertakings of the Company hereunder. Upon such a consolidation, merger or transfer of assets and assumption, the term, "Company", as used herein shall mean such other corporation and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. 13. NOTICES. All notices, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered or mailed, postage prepaid, by same day or overnight mail as follows: (a) To the Company: Director-Human Resources Department Mellon Bank, N.A. 1 Mellon Bank Center Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15258 (b) To the Executive: 615 East Drive Sewickley, Pennsylvania 15143 with copies to: Peter Mullin Management Compensation Group 644 S.

Except as required by law, no right to receive payments under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation or to execution, attachment, levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to effect any such action shall be null, void and of no effect, provided, however, that nothing in this Section 14 shall preclude the assumption of such rights by executors, administrators, or other legal representatives of the Executive or his estate and their assigning any rights hereunder to the person or persons entitled thereto. 15. SOURCE OF PAYMENTS. All payments provided for under this Agreement shall be paid in cash from the general funds of the Company. The Company shall not be required to establish a special or separate fund or other segregation of assets to assure such payments, and, if the Company shall make any investments to aid it in meeting its obligations hereunder, the Executive shall have no right, title, or interest whatever in or to any such investments except as may otherwise be expressly provided in a separate written instrument relating to such investments. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between the Company and the Executive or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured creditor of the Company. 16. BINDING AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Executive and the Company and, as permitted by this Agreement, their respective successors, assigns, heirs, beneficiaries and representatives. 17. GOVERNING LAW. The validity, interpretation, performance, and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. 23 18. COUNTERPARTS.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be executed and its seal to be affixed hereunto by its officers thereunto duly authorized, and the Executive has signed this Agreement, all as of the first date above written.

NOTE: THROUGHOUT THIS REPORT, RATIOS ARE BASED ON UNROUNDED NUMBERS. 23 7 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SIGNIFICANT EVENTS IN 1995 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Common dividend increases The Corporation increased its quarterly common stock dividend twice during 1995. In the second quarter, the Corporation increased its common stock dividend by 11%, to $.50 per share, from $.45 in the fourth quarter of 1994. In the fourth quarter of 1995, the Corporation increased its common stock dividend by 10%, to $.55 per share. The Corporation has increased its common stock dividend four times over the last two years, resulting in a 117% increase during that period. Mellon Bank Corporation and Chemical Banking Corporation joint venture In May 1995, the Corporation and Chemical Banking Corporation (Chemical) entered into a joint venture and formed Chemical Mellon Shareholder Services (CMSS), the nation's largest company that focuses exclusively on providing stock transfer and related shareholder services to publicly held companies. The Corporation contributed the assets and business of its Mellon Securities Transfer Services subsidiary to the joint venture and Chemical contributed its Geoserve Shareholder Services unit. CMSS has more than 14 million shareholder accounts and more than 2,000 corporate clients, including the largest share of companies listed on both the New York Stock Exchange and the American Stock Exchange. Repurchase of common stock and warrants In June 1995, the Corporation repurchased, in a privately negotiated transaction, the 3.75 million common shares and equity purchase options (warrants) for an additional 4.5 million common shares issued in 1993 as part of the purchase price of The Boston Company, Inc. The common stock and warrants were repurchased from American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., a subsidiary of American Express Company, for $213 million. In October 1995, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 8 million shares of the Corporation's common stock. The repurchases are being made from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions and, subject to market conditions, are expected to be completed by March 31, 1996. At December 31, 1995, the Corporation had repurchased approximately 3.5 million shares under this authorization. In addition, during 1995 the Corporation repurchased 5.5 million shares of its common stock to be used to meet its current and near-term common stock requirements for its stock-based benefit plans and its dividend reinvestment plan. As of December 31, 1995, approximately 2.8 million of these repurchased shares had been reissued. As a result of the aforementioned repurchases, the Corporation returned $632 million to shareholders in 1995, before any reissuances, by repurchasing 12.8 million shares, or 9% of the common shares outstanding at the beginning of the year, as well as the warrants for 4.5 million common shares. Acquisition of Metmor Financial, Inc. In August 1995, Mellon Mortgage Company, the Corporation's mortgage banking subsidiary, completed its acquisition of Metmor Financial, Inc. (Metmor), the residential and commercial mortgage banking subsidiary of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. Mellon Mortgage Company acquired 24 residential mortgage origination offices in the southwestern and midwestern United States and 8 commercial origination offices nationwide, as well as Metmor's $13 billion residential and commercial loan servicing portfolios. This acquisition makes Mellon Mortgage Company the 13th largest servicer of residential mortgages in the country with a residential servicing portfolio of $46.4 billion and the seventh largest servicer of commercial mortgages with a commercial servicing portfolio of $6.7 billion. The purchase price of this cash transaction was $165 million. 24 8 SIGNIFICANT EVENTS IN 1995 (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Securitization of credit card receivables The Corporation securitized $950 million, or one-third, of its credit card receivables in late November 1995. The securitization and sale of credit card receivables is an effective way to diversify funding sources and manage the balance sheet. The Corporation no longer recognizes interest revenue and certain fee revenue on the securitized portfolio; however, the decreases in these revenue categories are substantially offset by increased servicing fee revenue and lower net credit losses. The Corporation continues to service the securitized receivables. The effect of the credit card receivable securitization is discussed on page 35. CornerStone(sm) credit card losses In December 1995, the Corporation segregated $193 million of CornerStone(sm) credit card loans, which have a history of delinquency, into an accelerated resolution portfolio. In connection with this action, the Corporation evaluated the carrying value of these loans and recorded a credit loss of $106 million to reflect this portfolio's estimated net realizable value. Interest and principal receipts, fees and loan loss recoveries are applied to reduce the net carrying value of this portfolio, which totaled $82 million at December 31, 1995. No revenue will be recorded until the net carrying value is recovered. 25 9

NOTE: THE TABLE ABOVE AND DISCUSSION THAT FOLLOWS PRESENT THE OPERATING RESULTS OF THE CORPORATION'S MAJOR BUSINESS SECTORS, ANALYZED ON AN INTERNAL MANAGEMENT REPORTING BASIS. AMOUNTS ARE PRESENTED ON A TAXABLE EQUIVALENT BASIS. CAPITAL IS ALLOCATED USING THE FEDERAL REGULATORY GUIDELINES AS A BASIS, COUPLED WITH MANAGEMENT'S JUDGMENT REGARDING THE OPERATIONAL RISKS INHERENT IN THE BUSINESSES. THE CAPITAL ALLOCATIONS MAY NOT BE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE CAPITAL LEVELS THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED IF THESE SECTORS WERE NONAFFILIATED BUSINESS UNITS. Upon completion of the merger with Dreyfus, the Corporation's core business lines were realigned to reflect the distinct customers that are serviced-- consumers and corporations/institutions--and the products that are offered- - -investment and banking. Accordingly, the business sector results for 1994 have been realigned to reflect the change in methodology used by the Corporation to report business sector results. Income before taxes for the Corporation's core sectors was $866 million in 1995, down $62 million compared with the prior year. This decrease resulted from a $141 million increase in credit quality expense, primarily related to the CornerStone(sm) credit card product, partially offset by a $64 million increase in revenue and a $15 million decrease in operating expense. Return on average common shareholders' equity for the core sectors was 19% in 1995, compared with 21% in 1994. Return on average assets was 1.42% in 1995, compared with 1.59% in 1994. The Real Estate Workout sector showed higher profitability, as a result of lower credit quality expense, with income before taxes improving to $126 million in 1995, compared with $26 million in 1994. Consumer Investment Services Consumer Investment Services includes private asset management services and retail mutual funds. Income before taxes for the Consumer Investment sector was $119 million in 1995, an increase of $11 million from 1994. This increase resulted from lower operating expense, as well as higher private asset management fees and higher mutual fund management revenue, generated by a higher average level of assets managed. This sector realized a 41% increase in income before taxes in the second half of 1995, compared with the second half of 1994. This increase primarily resulted from an increase in private asset management and mutual fund management revenue. This sector continued to provide excellent returns, as return on average common shareholders' equity was 41% in 1995, up from 37% in 1994. 26 10

Consumer Banking Services Consumer Banking Services includes consumer lending, business banking, branch banking, credit card, mortgage loan origination and servicing and jumbo residential mortgage lending. Income before taxes for this sector totaled $309 million in 1995, a $59 million decrease from 1994. The increase in revenue primarily reflects a higher level of average loans, higher mortgage servicing fees including $18 million related to the Metmor acquisition and higher electronic tax return filing fees, partially offset by a decline in revenue as the Corporation elected not to offer its seasonal tax refund anticipation loan program in 1995. The increase in credit quality expense reflected higher credit card losses resulting from the CornerStone(sm) credit card portfolio. The Corporation anticipates that credit quality expense for this sector will be lower in 1996 than in 1995 as a result of the actions taken to transfer the problem CornerStone(sm) credit card accounts to an accelerated resolution portfolio. The increase in operating expense primarily reflected higher expenses in support of mortgage servicing and credit card acquisitions, including an increase in the amortization of mortgage servicing rights and purchased credit card relationships. Partially offsetting the higher operating expenses was the reduction of the FDIC deposit insurance premium in the second half of 1995. The FDIC premium has been eliminated for at least the first half of 1996. Also impacting operating expense in 1995, compared with the prior year, was a decrease in marketing expense related to the CornerStone(sm) credit card product. The return on average common shareholders' equity for this sector was 17% in 1995, compared with 23% in 1994. Corporate/Institutional Investment Services Corporate/Institutional Investment Services includes institutional trust and custody, institutional asset and institutional mutual fund management and administration, securities lending, foreign exchange, cash management and stock transfer. Income before taxes for this sector was $174 million in 1995, a decrease of $34 million compared with 1994. The decrease primarily resulted from: lower mutual fund administration and custody fees including the impact of the second quarter 1994 sale of the Boston-based third-party mutual fund administration business; lower fee revenue resulting from the CMSS joint venture; and lower securities lending revenue reflecting narrower margins in 1995 compared with 1994. Partially offsetting these decreases was an increase in revenue from custody related foreign exchange fees. The $14 million decrease in operating expense reflected the formation of the CMSS joint venture, the sale of the third-party mutual fund business and expense management efforts, offset partially by expense growth in support of higher transaction volumes and investments. The return on average common shareholders' equity for this sector was 23% in 1995, compared with 26% in 1994. 27 11 BUSINESS SECTORS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Corporate/Institutional Banking Services Corporate/Institutional Banking Services includes large corporate and middle market lending, asset-based lending, certain capital markets and leasing activities, commercial real estate lending and insurance premium financing. Income before taxes for the Corporate/Institutional Banking Services sector was $264 million in 1995, a $20 million increase from 1994. Revenue decreased primarily as a result of a decline in securities trading revenue and lower insurance premium finance spreads, partially offset by higher net interest revenue on higher loan levels as well as higher loan syndication fee revenue. The decrease in credit quality expense was primarily the result of credit recoveries. The decrease in operating expense, which more than offset the decrease in revenue, resulted from overall expense management efforts and lower overhead charges, and reflects the results of infrastructure reengineering in the insurance premium finance business. The return on average common shareholders' equity for this sector was 15% in 1995 and 1994. Real Estate Workout Real Estate Workout includes commercial real estate recovery and mortgage banking recovery operations. Income before taxes for Real Estate Workout was $126 million in 1995, compared with $26 million in 1994. The improvement primarily reflected a lower level of required loan loss reserves given the decline in both the volume and loss experience of the portfolio, as well as higher credit loss recoveries in 1995. Other The Other sector's pretax income of $121 million in 1995 principally reflected earnings on capital above that required in the core sectors. The results for 1994 primarily reflected the $223 million pretax securities lending charge and the pretax merger expenses and loss on disposition of securities totaling $119 million recorded in conjunction with the Dreyfus merger. The following tables distribute net income and return on common shareholders' equity for the Corporation's core sectors between customers serviced and products offered.

28 12 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ OVERVIEW OF 1995 RESULTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Corporation reported 1995 earnings per common share of $4.50 and net income applicable to common stock of $652 million. Reported 1994 earnings per common share were $2.42 on net income applicable to common stock of $358 million. Return on common shareholders' equity and return on assets were 17.77% and 1.72%, respectively, in 1995, compared with 9.79% and 1.14%, respectively, in 1994. Results in 1994 included a $130 million after tax securities lending charge, $89 million after tax of Dreyfus merger-related charges and $16 million of additional preferred stock dividends recorded in connection with the redemption of the Corporation's Series H preferred stock. Excluding these items, 1994 earnings per common share were $4.00 on net income applicable to common stock of $593 million, while return on common shareholders' equity and return on assets were 16.02% and 1.71%, respectively. The Corporation's 1995 financial results reflect continued efforts to diversify and expand revenue sources; manage expense growth; and effectively and efficiently integrate the activities of The Boston Company and Dreyfus into the Corporation's operations. Despite a very challenging operating environment, the Corporation's 1995 results, compared with 1994, show an improvement in net interest and fee revenue as well as lower operating expense, offset in part by higher credit quality expense. Net interest revenue increased to $1,548 million, up $40 million from $1,508 million in 1994, principally resulting from a higher average level of loans. Fee revenue increased to $1,670 million, up from $1,652 million in 1994, reflecting higher mortgage servicing fees, credit card fees and foreign currency and securities trading fees, partially offset by lower trust and investment management fees and the effect of divestitures. Operating expense before the net revenue from acquired property was well managed at $2,047 million in 1995, down $28 million from $2,075 million in 1994, excluding the securities lending charge and merger expense. This decrease resulted from lower FDIC deposit insurance assessment expense, lower marketing expense related to the CornerStone(sm) credit card and a decrease in professional, legal and other purchased services expense. Partially offsetting these decreases were increases in the amortization of purchased mortgage servicing rights and higher equipment expense. The provision for credit losses was $105 million in 1995, compared with $70 million in 1994. Net credit losses totaled $249 million in 1995, up from $67 million in 1994, principally reflecting higher losses on the CornerStone(sm) credit card product, including $106 million of credit losses on certain CornerStone(sm) accounts that were transferred to an accelerated resolution portfolio in the fourth quarter of 1995. Nonperforming assets totaled $236 million at December 31, 1995, a decrease of $3 million from $239 million at December 31, 1994. The Corporation's ratio of nonperforming assets to total loans and net acquired property was .85% at December 31, 1995, compared with .89% at December 31, 1994. This ratio has been less than one percent for six consecutive quarters. The Corporation's ratio of common shareholders' equity to assets was 8.83% at December 31, 1995. The Tier I, Total and Leverage capital ratios were 8.14%, 11.29% and 7.80%, respectively, at December 31, 1995, well in excess of the minimum required ratios. The Corporation reported net income applicable to common stock of $358 million, or $2.42 per common share, in 1994, compared with $397 million, or $2.73 per common share, in 1993. Results in 1993 included $112 million after tax of merger expenses and $53 million after tax of gains on the sale of securities, related to The Boston Company acquisition. Net interest revenue was $1,508 million in 1994, an increase of $179 million compared with 1993, partially reflecting a higher yielding asset mix. Fee revenue was $1,652 million in 1994, an increase of $114 million from 1993, reflecting the full-year impact of The Boston Company and internal growth, offset in part by the impact of divestitures and lower mutual fund management fee revenue. The provision for credit losses was $70 million in 1994, down $55 million from the prior year. Operating expense before the net expense (revenue) of acquired property, the securities lending charge and merger expenses, was $2,075 million in 1994, an increase of $225 million from 1993. The increase in operating expense was principally attributable to the full-year impact of The Boston Company. Net revenue from acquired property totaled $28 million in 1994, an $87 million improvement over 1993. 29 13 NET INTEREST REVENUE
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (taxable equivalent basis, dollar amounts in millions) 1995 1994 1993 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net interest revenue $ 1,558 $ 1,521 $ 1,346 Average loans 27,321 25,097 21,763 Average interest-earning assets 33,761 32,282 30,657 Net interest margin 4.62% 4.71% 4.39% - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net interest revenue includes the interest spread on interest earning assets, as well as loan fees, cash receipts and interest reversals on nonperforming loans, dividend income, and revenue or expense on off-balance-sheet instruments used for interest rate risk management purposes. Net interest revenue on a taxable equivalent basis totaled $1,558 million in 1995, up $37 million compared with 1994. The improvement in net interest revenue in 1995, compared with the prior year, primarily resulted from higher average loan levels partially offset by the migration of retail customers from lower cost core deposit products to higher cost deposit products. The net interest margin was 4.62% in 1995, compared with 4.71% in 1994. The decrease in the net interest margin primarily reflects the movement of customers from lower yielding deposit products to higher yielding products, reflecting the industry-wide trend of customers seeking higher yielding investment alternatives. Also affecting the net interest margin compared with 1994 was a high level of prepayment on adjustable rate mortgages. Average loans increased $2,224 million in 1995 compared with 1994, primarily as a result of a $960 million increase in domestic wholesale loans, an $830 million increase in credit card loans, including $550 million related to the CornerStone(sm) credit card product and an increase of $555 million in retail loans. The increase in domestic wholesale loans primarily was driven by corporate banking, business banking, middle market lending and asset based lending, while the increase in retail loans primarily resulted from increases in home equity loans, personal credit lines and student loans. The late November 1995 securitization of $950 million of credit card receivables resulted in a $10 million decrease in net interest revenue in 1995, as well as a $107 million reduction in average loans. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the foregone net interest revenue from the securitized credit card receivables is substantially offset by higher servicing fee revenue and lower net credit losses. Net interest revenue and the net interest margin will be reduced in 1996, compared with 1995, when a full-year impact of the credit card receivables securitization is reflected. All credit card servicing revenue related to the securitized portfolio is included in credit card fee revenue in noninterest revenue. Additional information on the effect of the securitization is presented in a table on page 35. Net interest revenue on a taxable equivalent basis in 1994 increased by $175 million compared with 1993, while the net interest margin increased by 32 basis points. The improvement in the net interest revenue and the net interest margin reflected a higher level of interest-earning assets and a higher yielding asset mix. Net interest revenue and the margin also benefited from a lower level of nonperforming assets, a lower average level of long-term debt and higher loan fees. CREDIT QUALITY EXPENSE
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (in millions) 1995 1994 1993 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Provision for credit losses $105 $ 70 $125 Net expense (revenue) of acquired property (20) (28) 59 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Credit quality expense $ 85 $ 42 $184 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Credit quality expense, defined as the provision for credit losses plus the net expense (revenue) of acquired property, increased $43 million in 1995 compared with 1994, as a result of a $35 million higher provision for credit losses primarily made in response to losses from the CornerStone(sm) credit card portfolio. The Corporation anticipates that the provision for credit losses in 1996 will be lower than in 1995 following the actions taken to transfer the problem CornerStone(sm) credit 30 14 CREDIT QUALITY EXPENSE (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ card accounts into an accelerated resolution portfolio. However, there can be no assurance that the provision for credit losses will be lower in 1996 as asset quality is dependent in large part on future economic conditions that are beyond the Corporation's control. The net revenue from acquired property was $20 million in 1995, an $8 million decrease compared with 1994. The decrease reflects lower net gains on the sale of acquired property. The Corporation expects a further reduction in net gains on the sale of acquired property in 1996. NONINTEREST REVENUE
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (in millions) 1995 1994 1993 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fee revenue: Trust and investment management: Mutual fund: Management $ 309 $ 294 $ 310 Administration/Custody 115 159 119 Institutional trust 206 223 184 Institutional asset management 135 143 122 Private asset management 141 134 118 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total trust and investment management fees 906 953 853 Cash management and deposit transaction charges 191 197 192 Mortgage servicing fees 122 78 62 Foreign currency and securities trading revenue 91 76 46 Credit card fees 90 72 61 Other 270 276 324 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total fee revenue 1,670 1,652 1,538 Gains (losses) on sale of securities 6 (5) 100 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total noninterest revenue $1,676 $1,647 $1,638 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Corporation's long-standing strategy has been to balance its revenue between lending and nonlending businesses. The Corporation once again achieved this desired balance as revenues from fee-generating businesses represented 52% of total revenue for the year. Fee revenue totaled $1,670 million in 1995, an $18 million increase compared with 1994, resulting from higher mortgage servicing fees, credit card fees and foreign currency and securities trading revenue, partially offset by lower trust and investment management fee revenue. Total trust and investment management fees The Corporation's trust and investment management fee revenue represents 54% of the Corporation's total fee revenue. The $47 million, or 5%, decrease in trust and investment management fees in 1995 compared with 1994 resulted from several factors. Mutual fund administration and custody fees decreased $44 million, primarily resulting from lower levels of administered funds, as well as a $12 million decrease in revenue related to the second quarter 1994 sale of the Boston-based third-party mutual fund administration business. Securities lending revenue, which is included in institutional trust revenue, decreased $17 million from 1994. The decrease in securities lending revenue primarily resulted from narrower margins in 1995 compared with 1994, as well as a slightly lower volume of securities lent in 1995. Institutional asset management revenue decreased $8 million as a result of a divestiture as well as attrition of higher margin clients, primarily at TBC Asset Management. Partially offsetting these decreases was a $15 million increase in mutual fund management revenue. The increase in mutual fund management revenue resulted from lower fee waivers at Dreyfus and a higher average level of mutual fund assets managed. Mutual fund management fees are discussed further on page 33. The $7 million improvement in private asset management fees resulted from a general market increase and new business. 31 15 NONINTEREST REVENUE (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ As shown in the table below, the market value of assets under management and administration/custody was $1,019 billion at December 31, 1995, up $172 billion, or 20%, compared with $847 billion at December 31, 1994. The market value of assets under management increased $43 billion, primarily as a result of: an increase in new institutional asset management business which more than offset the lost portion of TBC Asset Management business; an overall increase in the market values of assets managed, reflecting the improvement in the fixed income and equity markets in 1995 and an increase in institutional money market mutual funds. The $129 billion increase in the market value of assets under administration/custody primarily reflected new institutional trust business and a general market increase, partially offset by lost mutual fund administration/custody business. At December 31, 1995, compared with the prior year-end, the S&P 500 Index increased 34.11% while the Lehman Brothers Long Term Government Bond Index increased 30.72%.

Mutual fund management fees Mutual fund management fees are based on the average net assets of each fund. Average proprietary funds managed at Dreyfus grew each quarter of 1995, to $78 billion in the fourth quarter, and averaged $74 billion for the year, compared with $72 billion in 1994. This increase resulted from higher average institutional money market funds, as well as an overall increase in the market values of assets managed, paralleling the improvement in the fixed income and equity markets in 1995. Cash management and deposit transaction charges The Corporation provides a number of cash management services, including remittance processing, collections and disbursements, check processing and electronic services. At December 31, 1995, the Corporation's cash management services ranked sixth nationally in market share. Cash management and deposit transaction charges totaled $191 million in 1995, a decrease of $6 million from 1994. This decrease partially reflected a shift to deposit balance-based compensation from fee-based compensation as a method of payment for cash management services. Including the revenue generated from deposit balances, which is in net interest revenue, cash management and deposit transaction charges increased compared with 1994. Mortgage servicing fees Mortgage servicing fees were $122 million in 1995, an increase of $44 million, or 57%, compared with 1994, resulting from acquisitions of mortgage servicing rights. The $13 billion Metmor residential and commercial loan servicing portfolio acquired in August 1995 generated $18 million of revenue in the last four months of 1995. At December 31, 1995, the Corporation's total servicing portfolio was $53 billion, up 44% compared with $37 billion at year-end 1994. At December 31, 1995, the Corporation had the 13th largest residential mortgage servicing portfolio in the United States. 33 17 NONINTEREST REVENUE (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Foreign currency and securities trading revenue Foreign currency and securities trading fees increased to $91 million, a 20% increase over the $76 million earned in 1994. The increase was primarily attributable to higher foreign exchange fees earned, primarily as a result of increased global custody and corporate customer activity. Credit card fees Credit card fee revenue, which principally consists of interchange and cardholder fees, increased by $18 million, or 24%, in 1995. This increase primarily resulted from fee revenue generated by portfolio acquisitions and the CornerStone(sm) credit card product. As a result of the securitization of $950 million of credit card receivables, interest and fee revenue in excess of interest paid to certificate holders and net of credit losses are now reported in credit card fee revenue. The net effect of the securitization on credit card fees was $5 million from late November 1995 to year-end 1995. Additional information on the effect of the securitization is presented in a table on page 35. Other fee revenue Other fee revenue decreased $6 million in 1995 from $276 million in 1994 as a result of several factors. The Corporation's decision not to offer its seasonal tax refund anticipation loan program in 1995 reduced other fee revenue by $31 million compared with 1994. In addition, the May 1995 formation of CMSS resulted in a $25 million reduction in other fee revenue. The Corporation accounts for the CMSS joint venture under the equity method of accounting by reporting its share of the net results of the joint venture as other fee revenue, rather than reporting the revenues and expenses of CMSS separately. These reductions were partially offset by: a $24 million increase in gains on the disposition of assets, including equity securities; an $8 million increase in syndication management fees; and an $8 million increase in revenue generated from the electronic filing of income tax returns. Gains (losses) on sale of securities The Corporation recorded $6 million in net gains on the sale of securities available for sale in 1995. The Corporation recorded $5 million in net losses on the sale of securities available for sale in 1994, resulting from the loss of $15 million, or $10 million after tax, related to the disposition of securities held by Dreyfus prior to its merger with the Corporation, that did not meet the investment objectives, interest rate or credit risk characteristics required by the Corporation. 1994 compared with 1993 Compared with 1993, fee revenue increased by $114 million, or 7%, in 1994, primarily resulting from fee revenue attributable to the full-year impact of The Boston Company and continued growth in the fee-based service products businesses, offset in part by the effect of divestitures. The improvement reflected increases of 12% in trust and investment management fees, 25% in mortgage servicing fees, 3% in cash management and deposit transaction charges, 19% in credit card fee revenue and 64% in foreign currency and securities trading fee revenue. These improvements were partially offset by the sale of two information services businesses in late 1993 that resulted in a $74 million decrease in revenues in 1994. The Corporation recorded $100 million in gains on the sale of securities during 1993. Included in the $100 million in gains were $87 million that resulted from sales undertaken as part of the financing plan and balance sheet restructuring related to the acquisition of The Boston Company. 34 18 SECURITIZATION OF CREDIT CARD RECEIVABLES - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Corporation securitized and sold $950 million of credit card receivables in late November 1995. For analytical purposes, the impact of the securitization on 1995 results, with the net proceeds received from the securitization used to replace short-term borrowings, is shown below.

Operating expense before the net expense (revenue) of acquired property, the securities lending charge and merger expenses totaled $2,047 million in 1995, a decrease of $28 million, or 1%, compared with 1994. The decrease primarily resulted from a lower FDIC assessment charge, lower marketing expense related to the CornerStone(sm) credit card product and a reduction in professional, legal and other purchased services. These decreases were partially offset by increases in the amortization of purchased mortgage servicing rights and equipment expense. The efficiency ratio improved by 2 percentage points in 1995. 35 19 OPERATING EXPENSE (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Staff expense totaled $957 million in 1995, an increase of $1 million compared with 1994. The May 1995 formation of the CMSS joint venture resulted in an $11 million reduction in staff expense, while the Metmor acquisition in August 1995 resulted in a $6 million increase in staff expense. In January 1996, the Corporation announced a retirement enhancement program that will enhance the pensions and health insurance of eligible associates electing early retirement effective April 1, 1996. The financial impact of this program can not be determined until March 31, 1996, the acceptance deadline. FDIC assessment and regulatory examination fees decreased $32 million in 1995 as a result of the reduction in the FDIC deposit insurance premium from $.23 to $.04 for every $100 of deposits, effective June 1, 1995. The FDIC premium has been eliminated for at least the first half of 1996. This will result in a $27 million further reduction in expense compared with 1995 assuming that there will be no premium for the full year 1996. Partially offsetting this benefit will be lower fee and/or net interest revenue of approximately $4 million from cash management customers where the FDIC premium on deposits is passed through to these customers. The amount passed through was approximately $2 million per quarter in 1995. Marketing expense, which is included in business development expense in the table on the previous page, decreased $23 million in 1995 due to lower expenditures related to the CornerStone(sm) credit card product. The $24 million reduction in professional, legal and other purchased services resulted from lower purchased data processing services at The Boston Company and lower consulting expenses. The amortization of mortgage servicing rights and purchased credit card relationships totaled $68 million in 1995, a $28 million increase from 1994 and reflects the $16 billion, or 44%, increase in the Corporation's mortgage servicing portfolio from December 31, 1994. Equipment expense increased $11 million in 1995 to $143 million and reflects the internalization of certain data processing operations at The Boston Company, as well as various equipment upgrades. In 1994, the Corporation recorded a one-time charge of $223 million, or $130 million after tax, as a result of actions taken to reduce the interest rate sensitivity of certain securities lending clients' portfolios. Merger expense of $104 million pretax, or $79 million after tax, was recorded in 1994 to reflect expense associated with the Dreyfus merger. The table below summarizes the usage of this expense.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MERGER EXPENSE ANALYSIS-DREYFUS MERGER Expenditures and asset Expected Total adjustments at expenditures (in millions) expenses Dec. 31, 1995 in 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Benefit and severance programs $ 42 $35 $7 Professional, consulting and other 27 27 - Facilities and assets 25 25 - Proxy solicitation 10 10 - - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total merger expense $104 $97 $7 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Merger expense of $175 million, or $112 million after tax, was recorded in 1993 to reflect expense associated with the acquisition of The Boston Company. All expenditures and asset adjustments related to this merger have been recorded. Operating expense before the net expense (revenue) of acquired property, the securities lending charge and merger expense in 1994 increased by $225 million, or 12%, over 1993. The increase primarily resulted from the second quarter 1993 acquisition of The Boston Company and marketing expense of $27 million recorded in 1994 related to the introduction of the CornerStone(sm) credit card product. The $87 million improvement in the net expense (revenue) of acquired property in 1994, compared with 1993, primarily resulted from $30 million in net gains on the sale of acquired property and no provision to the reserve for other real estate owned (OREO) in 1994, compared with 1993 which included a $54 million OREO reserve provision. 36 20 INCOME TAXES - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The provision for income taxes totaled $401 million in 1995, compared with $278 million in 1994 and $298 million in 1993. The Corporation's effective tax rate for 1995 was 36.65% and it is currently anticipated that the effective tax rate will decline to approximately 36.5% in 1996. Excluding the impact of the Dreyfus merger-related expenses, the losses on the disposition of Dreyfus securities and the securities lending charge, the Corporation's effective tax rate for 1994, was 38%.

(b) The book value per common share assumed full conversion of the Series D preferred stock to common stock. Accordingly, this included the additional paid-in capital on the Series D preferred stock because this paid-in capital had no liquidation preference over the common stock. The Series D preferred stock was converted into common stock in 1994, pursuant to the terms of the Series D statement of designation.
The Corporation's capital management objectives are to maintain a strong capital base--in excess of all regulatory guidelines--while also maximizing shareholder value. Actions were taken in 1995 to enhance shareholder value by returning excess capital to shareholders' through both increased dividends and the repurchase of common stock. Common stock repurchases resulted in a decrease in the Corporation's common and total shareholders' equity at December 31, 1995, compared with December 31, 1994, offset in part by earnings retention. The decrease in the Corporation's equity ratios from December 31, 1994, resulted from common stock repurchases as well as asset growth. The common stock repurchases in 1995 included the June 1995 repurchase of the 3.75 million shares of common stock and warrants for an additional 4.5 million shares of common stock, issued in 1993 as part of the purchase price of The Boston Company. Also, during 1995, the Corporation repurchased 5.5 million shares of its common stock to be used to meet its current and near-term common stock requirements for its stock-based benefit plans and its dividend reinvestment plan. 37 21 CAPITAL (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At December 31, 1995, 2.8 million of these shares had been reissued. In October 1995, the Board of Directors of the Corporation authorized the repurchase of up to 8 million additional shares of the Corporation's common stock. As of December 31, 1995, the Corporation had repurchased approximately 3.5 million shares under this authorization and expects to repurchase the remaining shares under this authorization by March 31, 1996. As a result of these common stock repurchases, the Corporation returned $632 million to shareholders in 1995, prior to any reissuances, by repurchasing 12.8 million shares of common stock, or 9% of common shares outstanding at the beginning of the year, as well as warrants to purchase 4.5 million shares of common stock. Average common stock and stock equivalents used for the primary earnings per share computation was 145.1 million shares in 1995. At December 31, 1995, common stock and stock equivalents totaled 139.2 million shares.

(b) The required minimum Tier I, Total and Leverage capital ratios are 4%, 8% and 3%, respectively.
Tier I and Total capital are expressed as a percentage of risk-adjusted assets, which include various credit risk-weighted percentages of on- balance-sheet assets, as well as off-balance-sheet exposures. The Leverage capital ratio evaluates capital adequacy on the basis of the ratio of Tier I capital to quarterly average total assets as reported on the Corporation's regulatory financial statements, net of the loan loss reserve, goodwill and certain other intangibles. Federal regulators have adopted a capital-based supervisory system for all insured financial institutions. If a financial institution's capital ratios decline below predetermined levels, it would become subject to a series of increasingly restrictive regulatory actions. The system categorizes a financial institution's capital position into one of five categories ranging from well-capitalized to critically undercapitalized. For an institution to qualify as well-capitalized, its Tier I, Total and Leverage capital ratios must be at least 6%, 10% and 5%, respectively. All of the Corporation's banking subsidiaries qualified as well-capitalized at December 31, 1995. The Corporation intends to maintain the ratios of its banking subsidiaries at the well-capitalized levels. 38 22 CAPITAL (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When computing Tier I capital, the Corporation deducts all goodwill and certain other identified intangibles acquired subsequent to February 19, 1992, except mortgage servicing rights and purchased credit card relationships.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- December 31, (in millions) 1995 1994 1993 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Goodwill $788 $824 $826 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The $36 million decrease in goodwill at December 31, 1995, compared with December 31, 1994, resulted from $54 million of amortization, offset in part by an increase of $14 million related to corporate trust acquisitions. Based upon the current level and amortization schedule, the future annual amortization of goodwill for the years 1996-2000 is expected to be approximately $54 million.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- December 31, (in millions) 1995 1994 1993 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Purchased core deposit intangible $110 $133 $155 Covenants not to compete 22 38 57 Other identified intangibles 38 41 46 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total purchased core deposit and other identified intangibles $170 $212 $258 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The amortization expense of purchased core deposit and other identified intangibles was $42 million in 1995. The future annual amortization of purchased core deposit and other identified intangibles for the full years 1996 through 2000 is anticipated to be approximately $42 million, $31 million, $26 million, $26 million and $14 million, respectively.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- December 31, (in millions) 1995 1994 1993 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mortgage servicing rights $592 $292 $160 Purchased credit card relationships 90 60 44 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total mortgage servicing rights and purchased credit card relationships $682 $352 $204 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During 1995, $376 million of servicing rights were capitalized in connection with both mortgage servicing portfolio purchases and loan originations, including $186 million related to the Metmor acquisition. Mortgage servicing rights are amortized in proportion to estimated net servicing income over the estimated life of the servicing portfolio. Amortization expense totaled $57 million in 1995. The estimated fair value of capitalized mortgage servicing rights was $661 million at December 31, 1995. See note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements for a further discussion of the Corporation's accounting policy for mortgage servicing rights. The $30 million increase in purchased credit card relationships in 1995 resulted from portfolio acquisitions net of $11 million of amortization. In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released FAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." FAS No. 121 established guidelines for recognition of impairment losses related to long-lived assets and certain intangibles and related goodwill for both assets to be held and used as well as assets held for disposition. This statement excludes financial instruments, long-term customer relationships of financial institutions, mortgage and other servicing rights and deferred tax assets. This standard became effective on January 1, 1996. Adoption of FAS No. 121 is not expected to result in a material impact to the Corporation's financial position or results of operations. 39 23 CAPITAL (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The amortization expense of goodwill and other identified intangibles is the result of accounting for business combinations under the purchase method of accounting. Had the Corporation accounted for these transactions under the pooling of interests method of accounting, these intangibles and their related amortization would not have been reported. Net income applicable to common stock, return on tangible common equity and return on tangible assets, excluding the after tax impact of the amortization of these intangibles, are shown in the table below:
(dollar amounts in millions) 1995 1994 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income applicable to common stock (a) $ 652 $ 593 After tax impact of amortization of intangibles from purchase acquisitions 73 76 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $ 725 $ 669 Return on tangible common equity 27.1% 25.3% Average tangible common equity $ 2,678 $ 2,647 Return on tangible assets 1.96% 1.97% Average tangible assets $39,104 $37,063 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (a) Results for 1994 exclude the $130 million after tax securities lending charge, $89 million after tax of Dreyfus merger-related charges and the additional $16 million of preferred stock dividends recorded in connection with the redemption of the Series H preferred stock.
CORPORATE RISK - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RISK OVERVIEW - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Risk identification and management are essential elements for the successful management of the Corporation. The four primary risk exposures are liquidity risk; market risk, which includes interest rate and currency risk; credit risk; and fiduciary risk. Liquidity risk is the possibility that the Corporation will not be able to fund present and future financial obligations. Market risk is the possibility of lower net interest revenue or lower market values of assets and liabilities as interest rates or exchange rates fluctuate. Credit risk is the possibility of loss from a counterparty's failure to perform according to the terms of a transaction. Fiduciary risk is the possibility of loss from actions taken on behalf of clients. In addition, the Corporation is subject to other risks, particularly in its fee-generating businesses, that are transaction oriented. The Corporation controls and monitors these risks with policies, procedures and various levels of managerial oversight. Because of the nature of its businesses, external factors beyond the Corporation's control may, at times, result in losses to the Corporation or its customers. The Corporation is involved with various financial instruments that potentially create risk. These instruments are both on and off the balance sheet. On-balance-sheet instruments include securities, loans, deposits and borrowings. Off-balance-sheet instruments include loan commitments, standby letters of credit, interest rate swaps, foreign exchange contracts and interest rate futures and forwards. LIQUIDITY AND DIVIDENDS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Finance Committee of the Corporation is responsible for liquidity management. This committee of senior managers has a Liquidity Policy that covers all assets and liabilities, as well as off-balance-sheet items that are potential sources or uses of liquidity. The Corporation's liquidity management objective is to maintain the ability to meet commitments to fund loans and to purchase securities, as well as to repay deposits and other liabilities in accordance with their terms, including during periods of market or financial stress. The Corporation's overall approach to liquidity management is to ensure that sources of liquidity are sufficient in amount and diversity to accommodate changes in loan demand and core funding routinely without a material adverse impact on net income. The Corporation uses several key primary and secondary measures to assess the adequacy of the Corporation's liquidity position. The balance sheet is managed to ensure that these measures are maintained within approved limits. Each of these measures is monitored on a periodic basis giving consideration to the Corporation's expected requirements for funds and anticipated market conditions. 40 24 LIQUIDITY AND DIVIDENDS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Corporation's liquidity position is managed by maintaining adequate levels of liquid assets, such as money market assets and securities available for sale. Additional liquidity is available through the Corporation's ability to participate or sell commercial loans and to securitize selected loan portfolios. The Corporation also has a three-year $300 million revolving credit agreement and a $25 million backup line of credit to provide support facilities for its commercial paper borrowings and for general corporate purposes. The revolving credit facility contains tier 1 ratio, double leverage ratio and nonperforming asset covenants, as discussed in note 10 of Notes to Financial Statements. As shown in the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and due from banks increased by $57 million during 1995 to $2,342 million at December 31, 1995. The increase primarily reflected $1,096 million of net cash provided by financing activities and $255 million of net cash provided by operating activities, offset in part by $1,313 million of net cash used in investing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities primarily reflected increases in customer deposits, short-term bank notes and term federal funds purchased, partially offset by common stock repurchases. Net cash used in investing activities principally reflected an increase in loans and securities. In March 1995, the Corporation redeemed the $160 million Series H preferred stock at the contractual redemption price of $26.30 per share plus accrued dividends. This transaction was funded with cash on hand. Contractual maturities of the parent Corporation's term debt totaled $327 million in 1995 and consisted primarily of the $100 million 5-3/8% Senior Notes due August 1995 and the $200 million 6-1/8% Senior Notes due November 1995. In June 1995, the Corporation issued $200 million of debt at a fixed rate of 6.30% maturing in the year 2000. The proceeds from this issuance were used to fund the debt that matured in the second half of 1995. Contractual maturities of existing debt will total $20 million in 1996. At December 31, 1995, the Corporation had a debt shelf registration statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission on which up to $1.5 billion of debt may be issued. The issuance of any debt securities from this debt shelf registration will depend on future market conditions, funding needs and other factors. In late November 1995, Mellon Bank, N.A., the Corporation's principal banking subsidiary, made available an offering circular to issue, from time to time, up to $4 billion of bank notes. Mellon Bank, N.A. can issue up to $3 billion of bank notes with maturities ranging from 30 to 270 days and $1 billion of bank notes with maturities ranging from more than 270 days to 15 years. Proceeds from the issuance of the bank notes will be used by Mellon Bank, N.A. for general funding purposes. At December 31, 1995, there was $1.1 billion of short-term bank notes outstanding under this program. At December 31, 1995, the Corporation's senior debt and Mellon Bank, N.A.'s subordinated debt were rated "A2" by Moody's and "A" by Standard and Poors. The Corporation increased its annual common stock dividend to $2.00 per common share in the second quarter of 1995, an increase of 11% from the previous annual rate of $1.80. In the fourth quarter of 1995, the Corporation again increased its annual common stock dividend to $2.20 per common share, an increase of 10%. The Corporation has increased its common stock dividend four times over the last two years, resulting in a 117% increase during that period. The Corporation paid $288 million in dividends on its outstanding shares of common stock during 1995. The common stock dividend payout ratio was 44% in 1995, compared with 55% in 1994. Excluding the $130 million after tax securities lending charge, the $89 million after tax of Dreyfus merger-related charges and the $16 million of additional preferred stock dividends, the dividend payout ratio would have been 33% in 1994. Using the current common stock dividend rate and shares outstanding at December 31, 1995, annual dividend requirements in 1996 for the common and preferred stock are expected to be approximately $340 million. The repurchase of the 4.5 million remaining shares under the 8 million share repurchase plan will reduce the cash requirement for the annual common stock dividend by approximately $10 million. The parent Corporation's principal sources of cash are interest and dividends from its subsidiaries. The ability of national bank subsidiaries to pay dividends to the parent Corporation is subject to certain limitations, as discussed in note 18 of Notes to Financial Statements. Under the more restrictive limitations, the Corporation's national bank subsidiaries can, without prior regulatory approval, declare dividends subsequent to December 31, 1995, of approximately $175 million, less any dividends declared and plus or minus net profits or losses, as defined, between January 1, 1996, and the date of any such dividend declaration. The national bank subsidiaries declared dividends to the parent Corporation totaling $501 million in 1995, 41 25 LIQUIDITY AND DIVIDENDS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $366 million in 1994 and $185 million in 1993. Dividends paid to the parent Corporation by nonbank subsidiaries totaled $30 million in 1995, compared with $122 million in 1994 and $116 million in 1993. In addition, Mellon Bank, N.A. returned $300 million of capital to the parent Corporation in 1995, and The Boston Company returned $100 million and $300 million of capital to the parent Corporation in 1994 and 1993, respectively. Banking regulators have issued additional guidelines that require bank holding companies and subsidiary banks to continuously evaluate the level of cash dividends in relation to their respective operating income, capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition.
Balance sheet analysis - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (average balances in millions) 1995 1994 1993 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ASSETS: Money market investments $ 1,222 $ 1,656 $ 3,821 Trading account securities 296 380 269 Securities 4,922 5,149 4,804 Loans 27,321 25,097 21,763 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total interest-earning assets 33,761 32,282 30,657 Noninterest-earning assets 6,927 6,437 5,543 Reserve for credit losses (591) (613) (565) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total assets $40,097 $38,106 $35,635 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FUNDS SUPPORTING TOTAL ASSETS: Core funds $30,986 $32,101 $31,430 Wholesale and purchased funds 9,111 6,005 4,205 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Funds supporting total assets $40,097 $38,106 $35,635 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The change in the level and mix of the Corporation's average interest-earning assets in 1995, compared with 1994, reflects a higher average level of loans. Average loans increased $2.2 billion while money market investments and securities decreased $434 million and $227 million, respectively. The increase in average loans resulted from a $960 million increase in domestic wholesale loans, an $830 million increase in credit card loans and a $555 million increase in retail loans. The change in the mix of the Corporation's funding in 1995, compared with 1994, reflects the use of wholesale and purchased funds to support loan growth, as well as a decrease in core funds. Core funds, which are considered to be the most stable sources of funding, are defined principally as money market and other savings deposits, demand deposits, savings certificates, shareholders' equity and notes and debentures with original maturities over one year. Core funds primarily support core assets, which consist of loans, net of the reserve and noninterest-earning assets. Average core assets increased $2.7 billion in 1995 from the prior year, primarily reflecting increased loan levels. Average core funds decreased $1.1 billion in 1995 compared with 1994, primarily reflecting a lower average level of money market and savings deposits and demand deposits. Core funds averaged 92% of core assets in 1995, down from 104% in 1994 and 118% in 1993. Wholesale and purchased funds are defined as deposits in foreign offices and other time deposits, federal funds purchased and securities under repurchase agreements, short-term bank notes, negotiable certificates of deposit, U.S. Treasury tax and loan demand notes, commercial paper and other funds borrowed. Average wholesale and purchased funds increased $3.1 billion compared with 1994, primarily reflecting an increase in overnight foreign office deposits, short-term bank notes and federal funds purchased and securities under repurchase agreements. As a percentage of average total assets, average wholesale and purchased funds were 23% in 1995, 16% in 1994 and 12% in 1993. 42 26 INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The objective of interest rate risk management is to control the effects that interest rate fluctuations have on net interest revenue and on the net present value of the Corporation's assets, liabilities and off-balance-sheet instruments. The Corporation's Finance Committee is responsible for managing interest rate risk and employing risk management policies that monitor and limit exposure to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is measured using net interest margin simulation and asset/liability net present value sensitivity analyses. Simulation tools serve as the primary means to gauge interest rate exposure. The net present value sensitivity analysis is the means by which the Corporation's long-term interest rate exposure is evaluated. These methods provide the analysis needed for a full understanding of the range of potential impacts on net interest revenue and portfolio equity caused by interest rate movements. Modeling techniques that are used to estimate the impact of changes in interest rates on the net interest margin are a more relevant method of measuring interest rate risk than the less sophisticated interest rate sensitivity gap table shown on page 45. Assumptions regarding the replacement of maturing assets and liabilities are made to simulate the impact of future changes in rates and/or changes in balance sheet composition. The effect of changes in future interest rates on the mix of assets and liabilities may cause actual results to differ from simulated results. In addition, certain financial instruments provide customers a certain degree of "optionality." For instance, customers have migrated from lower cost deposit products to higher cost products. Also, customers will refinance mortgages as interest rates decrease. While the Corporation's simulation analysis considers these factors, the extent to which customers utilize the ability to exercise their financial options may cause actual results to differ from the simulation. The Corporation has established the following guidelines for assuming interest rate risk: Net interest margin simulation--Given a +/- 200 basis point parallel shift in interest rates, estimated net interest revenue may not decrease by more than 5% for a one-year period. Portfolio equity simulation--Portfolio equity is the net present value of the Corporation's existing assets, liabilities and off-balance-sheet instruments. Given a +/- 200 basis point parallel shift in interest rates, portfolio equity may not decrease by more than 20% of total shareholders' equity. The table below illustrates the simulation analysis of the impact of a 100 basis point or 200 basis point upward or downward movement in interest rates on net interest revenue, return on common shareholders' equity and earnings per share. This analysis was done assuming that interest-earning asset levels at December 31, 1995 remained constant, that the level of loan fees remains unchanged, and excludes the impact of interest receipts on nonperforming loans. The impact of the rate movements was developed by simulating the effect of rates changing over a six-month period from the December 31, 1995 levels. The simulated impact of rate changes shown below is compared to 1995 actual results adjusted for the pro forma full-year impact of the credit card securitization.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS Movements in interest rates from December 31, 1995 rates - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Increase Decrease Anticipated impact in the next 12 months -------------- ---------------- compared with 1995 actual results: +100bp +200bp -100bp -200bp ------------------------------------------ Net interest revenue increase/(decrease) 4.0% 5.4% .4% (1.5)% Return on common equity increase/(decrease) 105bp 140bp 11bp (39)bp Earnings per share increase/(decrease) $.27 $.36 $.03 $(.10) - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The anticipated impact on net interest revenue under the 100 and 200 basis points increase scenarios and the 200 basis point decrease scenario is consistent with the Corporation's asset sensitive gap position. Generally, an asset sensitive gap indicates that rising interest rates could positively affect net interest revenue, and falling rates could negatively affect net interest revenue. The increase in net interest revenue under the 100 basis points decrease scenario primarily results from short-term liabilities repricing more quickly than certain adjustable rate assets. 43 27 INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The interest rate sensitivity gap table on the following page shows the repricing characteristics of the Corporation's interest-earning assets and supporting funds at December 31, 1995. The data are based upon contractual repricing or maturities and, where applicable, management's assumptions as to the estimated repricing characteristics of certain assets and supporting funds. At December 31, 1995, the Corporation had an asset-sensitive interest rate risk position at the one-year repricing period. Assets and liabilities with similar contractual repricing characteristics, however, may not reprice at the same time or to the same degree. As a result, the Corporation's static interest rate sensitivity gap position does not necessarily predict the impact of changes in general levels of interest rates on net interest revenue. The measurement of interest rate risk is meaningful only when all related on- and off-balance-sheet items are aggregated and the net positions are identified. Financial instruments that the Corporation uses to manage interest rate sensitivity include: money market assets, U.S. government and federal agency securities, municipal securities, mortgage-backed securities, corporate bonds, interest rate swaps, caps and floors, financial futures and financial options. The cumulative gap at the one-year repricing period, before the utilization of off-balance-sheet instruments, was asset sensitive in the amount of $4.2 billion, or 10.4% of total assets, at December 31, 1995. However, because the Corporation did not want to accept the level of interest rate risk presented by its naturally asset sensitive balance sheet, it entered into interest rate swaps and other off-balance-sheet instruments that resulted in a net reduction of $822 million in this cumulative asset-sensitive position. These instruments reduced the cumulative gap at the one-year repricing period to an asset-sensitive amount of $3.4 billion, or 8.4% of total assets. The Corporation uses off-balance-sheet instruments primarily to convert fixed-rate long-term deposits to variable-rate deposits that generally reprice quarterly. Alternatively, the Corporation could have acquired additional fixed-rate investment securities or other fixed-rate interest-earning assets of approximately $822 million to accomplish this objective. Correspondingly, the Corporation also would have had to acquire a comparable amount of wholesale funds in order to fund these additional interest-earning assets. By using off-balance-sheet instruments to manage interest rate risk, the effect is a smaller, more efficient balance sheet, with a lower wholesale funding requirement and a higher return on assets and net interest margin with a comparable level of net interest revenue and return on common shareholders' equity. 44 28 INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note: Repricing periods for securities, loans, interest-bearing deposits, noninterest-bearing liabilities and off-balance-sheet instruments are based upon contractual maturities, where applicable, as well as the Corporation's historical experience of the impact of interest rate fluctuations on the prepayment, repricing and withdrawal patterns of certain assets and liabilities. Managing interest rate risk with off-balance-sheet instruments The Corporation uses off-balance-sheet instruments, primarily interest rate swaps, in managing its overall interest rate exposure. By policy, the Corporation will not implement any new off-balance-sheet activity that, when aggregated into the total Corporate interest rate exposure, would cause the Corporation to exceed the interest rate risk limits outlined on page 43. The following off-balance-sheet instruments have been approved by the Corporation for managing the overall Corporate interest rate exposure: interest rate swaps; caps and floors; financial futures; forward rate agreements; and financial options. Their usage for speculative purposes is not permitted outside of those areas designated as trading and controlled with specific authorizations and limits. These instruments provide the Corporation flexibility in adjusting its interest rate risk position without exposure to principal risk and funding requirements. The Corporation primarily uses non-leveraged generic and index amortizing swaps in order to accomplish its objectives. Generic swaps involve the exchange of fixed and variable interest rates based on underlying contractual notional amounts. Index amortizing swaps involve the exchange of fixed and variable interest rates; however, their notional amount and maturities vary based on certain underlying indices. The use of financial futures and option contracts is permitted provided that: the transactions occur in a market with a size that ensures sufficient liquidity; the contract is traded on an approved exchange or, in the case of over-the-counter option contracts, is transacted with a credit-approved counterparty; and that the types of contracts have been authorized for use by the Board of Directors and the Finance Committee. The Corporation's off-balance-sheet instruments used to manage its interest rate risk are shown in the table on the following page. For a further discussion of these contracts, see note 20 of Notes to Financial Statements. 45 29 INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS (CONTINUED) - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

46 30 INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The gross notional amount of off-balance-sheet instruments used to manage the Corporation's interest rate risk was $8.7 billion at December 31, 1995, a decrease of $2.6 billion from December 31, 1994. The reduction in these instruments resulted from maturities. The flat yield curve in 1995 enabled the Corporation to reduce the usage of interest rate swaps. This gross notional amount, which is presented in the table on the previous page, must be viewed in the context of the Corporation's overall interest rate risk management activities in order to assess its impact on the net interest margin. As discussed on page 44, these off-balance-sheet instruments modified the Corporation's asset-sensitive position, including the modification of the cumulative asset-sensitive position at the one-year repricing period, of $4.2 billion, before the utilization of these instruments, to a cumulative one-year asset-sensitive position of $3.4 billion at December 31, 1995. The following table presents the gross notional amounts of off-balance-sheet instruments used to manage interest rate risk, identified by the underlying interest rate sensitive instruments.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- December 31, (in millions) 1995 1994 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Instruments associated with deposits $6,500 $ 9,436 Instruments associated with other liabilities 670 420 Instruments associated with loans 1,532 1,478 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total notional amount $8,702 $11,334 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Corporation entered into these off-balance-sheet instruments to neutralize the natural interest rate risk embedded in its assets and liabilities. The interest received and interest paid are recorded on an accrual basis in interest revenue and interest expense associated with the underlying assets and liabilities. The net differential resulted in interest expense of $2 million in 1995, compared with interest revenue of $117 million and $201 million in 1994 and 1993, respectively. The lower net interest revenue impact in 1995, compared with 1994 and 1993, resulted from the effect of higher average interest rates in 1995. The Corporation's analysis using interest rates at December 31, 1995, indicate that off-balance-sheet instruments will have a positive impact of more than $30 million on the net interest margin in 1996. The graph on the following page demonstrates the reduction in volatility of the net interest margin with the use of off-balance-sheet products. The net interest margin without the use of off-balance-sheet instruments would have fluctuated approximately 120 basis points from the second quarter of 1993 to the first quarter of 1995, while the net interest margin including the use of off-balance-sheet instruments fluctuated approximately 60 basis points during the same period. The Corporation did not terminate any interest rate agreements used for interest rate risk management purposes in 1995. Terminations of interest rate swaps in 1994 resulted in the amortization of less than $1 million of net deferred gains into net interest revenue in 1995. These gains were amortized over the remaining period of the original hedge, which was less than one year. The estimated unrealized fair value of the Corporation's interest rate management off-balance-sheet instruments at December 31, 1995, was a positive $30 million, compared to a negative $344 million at December 31, 1994. This improvement was consistent with lower interest rates at December 31, 1995, compared with the prior year-end, which had the corresponding effect of decreasing the fair value of on-balance-sheet core deposits. These values should be viewed in the context of the overall financial structure of the Corporation, including the aggregate net position of all on-and off-balance-sheet instruments. As more fully discussed in note 20 of Notes to Financial Statements, credit risk associated with off-balance-sheet instrument positions represents the aggregate replacement cost of contracts in a gain position. At December 31, 1995 and 1994, the amount of credit exposure associated with interest rate risk management instruments was $55 million and $10 million, respectively. 47 31 INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At this point in the 1995 Annual Report there appears a line graph as set out in the following table.

Off-balance-sheet instruments used for trading activities The Corporation offers off-balance-sheet financial instruments, primarily foreign exchange contracts, currency and interest rate option contracts, interest rate swaps and interest rate caps and floors, to enable customers to meet their financing objectives and to manage their interest- and currency-rate risk. Supplying these instruments provides the Corporation with fee revenue. The Corporation also uses such instruments, as well as futures and forward contracts, in connection with its proprietary trading account activities. All of these instruments are carried at market value with realized and unrealized gains and losses included in foreign currency and securities trading revenue. In 1995, the Corporation recorded $87 million of fee revenue from these activities, primarily from foreign exchange contracts entered into on behalf of customers, compared with $72 million in 1994. The total notional values of these contracts were $33 billion at December 31, 1995 and $34 billion at December 31, 1994, and are included on the off-balance-sheet instruments used for trading activities table on page 87 in note 20 of Notes to Financial Statements. Total credit risk of contracts used for trading activities was $389 million at December 31, 1995 and $281 million at December 31, 1994. The Corporation has established trading limits and related monitoring procedures to control trading risk. These limits are reviewed and approved by the Office of the Chairman and the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors. All limits are monitored for compliance by departmental compliance staff and by the Corporation's Internal Audit department. Exceptions to limits are reported to the Office of the Chairman and, in certain instances, to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. The financial risk associated with trading positions is managed by assigning position limits and stop loss guidance amounts to individual activities. Position limits are assigned to each family of financial instruments eligible for trading such that the aggregate value at risk in these activities at any point in time will not exceed a specified limit given a significant market movement. The extent of market movement deemed to be significant is based upon an analysis of the historical volatility of individual instruments that would cover 95% of likely daily market movements. Using the Corporation's methodology, which considers such factors as changes in interest rates, spreads and options volatility, the aggregate value at risk for trading activities was less than $1 million at December 31, 1995. 48 32 INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Trading activities are limited to products and markets in which liquidity is sufficient to allow positions to be closed quickly and without adversely affecting market prices, which limits loss potential below that assumed for a full-day adverse movement. Loss potential is further constrained in that it is highly unusual for all trading areas to be exposed to maximum limits at the same time and extremely rare for significant adverse market movements to occur in all markets simultaneously. Stop loss guidance is used when a certain threshold of loss is sustained. If stop loss guidance amounts are approached, open positions are liquidated to avoid further risk to earnings. The use of both stop loss guidance and position limits reduces the likelihood that potential trading losses would reach imprudent levels in relation to earnings capability. CREDIT RISK - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Credit risk exists in financial instruments that are both on and off the balance sheet. Financial instruments such as loans and leases are on the balance sheet. Off-balance-sheet credit exposures include loan commitments, standby letters of credit and the credit risk associated with financial instruments used to manage interest rate risk and used for trading activities. The objective of the credit risk management process is to reduce the risk of loss if a customer fails to perform according to the terms of a transaction. Essential to this process are stringent underwriting of new loan commitments, active monitoring of all loan portfolios and the early identification of potential problems and their prompt resolution. The Corporation establishes internal ownership, responsibility and accountability for all aspects of asset quality. Notwithstanding this process, however, asset quality is dependent in large part upon local, national, international and industry segment economic conditions that are beyond the Corporation's control. Management maintains a comprehensive centralized process through which the Corporation establishes exposure limits, extends new loans, monitors credit quality, actively manages problem credits and disposes of nonperforming assets. To help ensure adherence to the Corporation's credit policies, senior department credit officers report to both the Corporation's chief risk and credit officer and the head of each respective lending department. The responsibilities of these senior credit officers include all aspects of the credit process except credit review, credit recovery and aggregate portfolio management, which are centralized at the corporate level. The Corporation manages credit risk by maintaining a well-diversified credit portfolio and by adhering to its written credit policies, which specify general underwriting criteria as well as underwriting standards for specific industries and control credit exposure by borrower, degree of risk, industry and country. These measures are adopted by the Credit Policy Committee and are regularly updated to reflect the committee's evaluation of developments in economic, political and operating environments that could affect lending risks. The Corporation may adjust credit exposure to individual industries or customers through loan sales, syndications, participations and the use of master netting agreements when the Corporation has more than one transaction outstanding with the same customer. Except for certain well-defined loans made by the Consumer Banking Services sector, primarily to consumers and small businesses, all credit extensions are approved jointly by officers of the Credit Policy department and officers of the lending departments. The number and level of officer approvals required are determined by the dollar amount and risk characteristics of the credit extension. The amount of collateral, if any, obtained by the Corporation upon the extension of credit is based on industry practice as well as the credit assessment of the customer. The type and amount of collateral vary, but the form generally includes: accounts receivable; inventory; property, plant and equipment; other assets; and/or income-producing commercial properties with appraised values that exceed the contractual amount of the credit facilities by pre-approved ratios. The Corporation continually assesses the quality of its consumer and commercial credit facilities, and assigns a numerical quality rating to substantially all extensions of credit in its commercial, real estate and international portfolios. Lending officers have the primary responsibility for monitoring their portfolios, identifying emerging problem loans and recommending changes in quality ratings. To anticipate or detect problems that may result from economic downturns or deteriorating conditions in certain markets, lending units and credit management use a process designed to identify potential 49 33 CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- credit problems, both for specific customers and for industries that could be affected by adverse market or economic conditions. When signs of credit deterioration are detected, credit recovery or other specialists become involved to minimize the Corporation's exposure to potential future credit losses. The Credit Review department provides an independent assessment of credit ratings, credit quality and the credit management process. For a further discussion of the credit risk associated with off-balance-sheet financial instruments, see the discussions of the various financial instruments in note 20 of Notes to Financial Statements. COMPOSITION OF LOAN PORTFOLIO AT YEAR-END - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The $957 million increase in the loan portfolio in 1995 resulted from increased loan demand, partially offset by the $950 million credit card securitization and the transfer of $193 million of CornerStone(sm) credit card loans to an accelerated resolution portfolio. Loan growth in 1995 reflects a $954 million increase in commercial and financial loans and a $280 million increase in consumer mortgages, partially offset by a $457 million decrease in credit card loans. At December 31, 1995, the composition of the loan portfolio was 51% commercial and 49% consumer.

(b) Includes $21 million of loans subject to the FDIC loss sharing arrangement. (c) Includes $109 million of loans subject to the FDIC loss sharing arrangement. Note: There were no concentrations of loans to borrowers engaged in similar activities, other than those shown in this table, that exceeded 10% of total loans at year-end.
Commercial and financial The domestic commercial and financial loan portfolio primarily consists of loans to corporate borrowers in the manufacturing, service, energy, communications, wholesale and retail trade, public utilities and financial services industries. Numerous risk factors impact this portfolio, including industry specific risks such as the economy, new technology, labor rates and cyclicality, as well as customer specific factors such as cash flow, financial structure, operating controls and asset quality. The Corporation diversifies risk within this portfolio by closely monitoring industry concentrations and portfolios to ensure that it does not exceed established lending guidelines. Diversification is intended to limit the risk of loss from any single unexpected economic event or trend. Total domestic commercial and financial loans increased by $954 million, or 10%, during 1995, primarily as a result of increases of $270 million in wholesale money market loans, $235 million in corporate banking and $195 million in middle market lending. Commercial and financial loans represented 40% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 1995 and 37% at December 31,1994. At year-end 1995, nonperforming domestic commercial and financial loans and leases were .55% of total domestic commercial and financial loans and leases, compared with .60% at December 31, 1994. This ratio has been less than 1% for the last 11 quarters. 50 34 COMPOSITION OF LOAN PORTFOLIO AT YEAR-END (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Commercial real estate The Corporation's $1.532 billion domestic commercial real estate loan portfolio consists of commercial mortgages, which generally are secured by nonresidential and multi-family residential properties, and commercial construction loans generally with maturities of 60 months or less. Also included in this portfolio are loans that are secured by owner-occupied real estate, but made for purposes other than the construction or purchase of real estate. The commercial real estate loan portfolio includes $109 million of loans acquired in the December 1992 Meritor retail office acquisition that are subject to a five-year 95% loss sharing arrangement with the FDIC. Commercial real estate loans carry many of the same customer and industry risks as the commercial and financial portfolio, as well as contractor/subcontractor performance risk in the case of commercial construction loans and cash flow risk based on project economics. Domestic commercial real estate loans decreased by $92 million, or 6%, at December 31, 1995, compared with December 31, 1994. The decrease primarily was a result of paydowns and transfers to OREO partially offset by new loan originations in 1995. Domestic commercial real estate loans were 6% of total loans at December 31, 1995 and 1994. Nonperforming commercial real estate loans were 2.55% of total domestic commercial real estate loans at December 31, 1995, compared with 1.73% at December 31, 1994. Consumer mortgage The consumer mortgage portfolio primarily includes jumbo residential mortgages, traditional one-to-four family residential mortgages, home equity loans and personal loans secured by residential properties. At December 31, 1995, this portfolio grew to $8,960 million, from $8,680 million at the prior year end. The $280 million increase in this portfolio from year-end 1994 primarily reflected a $345 million increase in residential mortgage loans held in the residential warehouse portfolio, a $155 million increase in home equity loans and a $130 million increase in personal loans secured by residential properties, partially offset by a $350 million decrease in jumbo residential mortgages. Jumbo residential mortgages, which totaled $3.9 billion at year-end 1995, are variable rate mortgages that range from $250,000 to $3 million. The $350 million decrease from December 31, 1994, resulted from loan sales and accelerated prepayments. Risks involved in holding jumbo mortgages include less liquidity than a traditional one-to-four family residential mortgage portfolio and increased exposure on an individual loan basis. The Corporation attempts to control these risks by requiring more stringent loan-to-value ratios and higher liquidity and cash flow requirements for each borrower. At December 31, 1995, the geographic distribution of the jumbo mortgages was as follows: 30% in the Mid-Atlantic region; 29% in New England; 25% in California; and 16% in other areas. Fueled by low interest rates in 1995, the Corporation's one-to-four family residential mortgages increased approximately $345 million, to $2.3 billion at December 31, 1995, from the prior year end. This increase primarily resulted from growth in the residential warehouse portfolio. Home equity loans increased approximately $155 million to $1.6 billion, and personal loans secured by residential properties increased approximately $130 million to $1.2 billion at December 31, 1995. Risks on these three portfolios are limited to payment and collateral risk and are primarily driven by regional economic factors. Nonperforming consumer mortgages were .68% of total consumer mortgages at December 31, 1995, compared with .64% at December 31, 1994. Credit card At December 31, 1995, credit card loans totaled $1,924 million, a $457 million decrease from December 31, 1994. The decrease in credit card loans resulted from the $950 million securitization of credit card receivables and the transfer of $193 million of CornerStone(sm) credit card loans to an accelerated resolution portfolio, both discussed below. Excluding the securitization and the creation of the accelerated resolution portfolio, credit card loans increased $686 million, or 29%, compared with the prior year-end. This increase resulted from growth in the existing portfolio and portfolio acquisitions. 51 35 COMPOSITION OF LOAN PORTFOLIO AT YEAR-END (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The primary risk associated with credit card loans is that these loans are unsecured and are solely dependent upon the credit-worthiness of the borrower. The Corporation monitors this risk using both internal and external statistical models. In addition to these models, the Corporation monitors factors such as portfolio growth, lending policies and economic conditions. Underwriting standards are continually evaluated and modified based upon these factors. Credit card loans are charged off after reaching 180 days delinquent and as such are not placed on nonperforming status prior to charge-off. The ratio of credit card loans 90 days or more past- due to total credit card loans was .66% at December 31, 1995, compared with 1.35% at December 31, 1994. Securitization of credit card receivables The Corporation securitized nearly one-third, or $950 million, of credit card receivables in late November 1995. The securitization and sale of credit card receivables is an effective way to diversify funding sources and manage the balance sheet. The Corporation continues to service the securitized receivables. The effect of the securitization is shown in the table on page 35. Assets held for accelerated resolution In December 1995, the Corporation segregated $193 million of CornerStone(sm) credit card loans, which have a history of delinquency, into an accelerated resolution portfolio. CornerStone(sm) outstandings were $845 million at that time, compared with $880 million at June 30, 1995 and $725 million at year-end 1994. In connection with this transfer, the Corporation evaluated the carrying value of these loans and recorded a credit loss of $106 million to reflect an estimated net realizable value of $87 million. Interest and principal receipts, fees and loan loss recoveries on loans in this portfolio are applied to reduce the carrying value of this portfolio, which totaled $82 million at December 31, 1995. No revenue will be recorded on this portfolio until the net carrying value is recovered. This portfolio is in other assets on the Corporation's balance sheet. Other consumer credit Other consumer credit, which principally consists of installment loans, unsecured personal credit lines and student loans, increased by $157 million, or 6%, from year-end 1994. This increase primarily reflected growth in the student loan portfolio. Other consumer credit loans are both secured and unsecured and, in the case of student loans, are government guaranteed. Other loans Loans to international borrowers increased to $863 million at December 31, 1995, from $763 million at year-end 1994. The Corporation's international lending strategy centers around establishing relationships with large foreign firms that are multinational in nature but also carry a significant U.S. presence. Lease finance assets increased to $830 million, up from $815 million at year-end 1994. 52 36 NONPERFORMING ASSETS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nonperforming assets is a term used to describe assets on which revenue recognition has been discontinued or is restricted. Nonperforming assets include both nonperforming loans and acquired property, primarily OREO acquired in connection with the collection effort on loans. Nonperforming assets do not include the segregated assets acquired in the December 1992 Meritor retail office acquisition. Nonperforming loans include both nonaccrual and "troubled debt" restructured loans. Past-due commercial loans are those that are contractually past due 90 days or more but are not on nonaccrual status because they are well-secured and in the process of collection. Past-due consumer loans, excluding consumer mortgages, are generally not classified as nonaccrual, but are charged off on a formula basis upon reaching various stages of delinquency. Additional information regarding the Corporation's practices for placing assets on nonaccrual status is presented in note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements. Nonperforming assets have decreased for four consecutive years and are at their lowest level since 1982. At December 31, 1995, nonperforming assets totaled $236 million, a $3 million decrease from 1994, reflecting a decrease in acquired property that was primarily offset by an increase in nonperforming loans. The tables on pages 54 and 55 show the factors that affected the change in the levels of nonperforming loans and acquired property. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total loans and net acquired property at December 31, 1995, was .85%, compared with .89% at year-end 1994. This ratio, which can be expected to vary over time with changes in the economy, has been lower than 1% for six consecutive quarters. In 1995, the Corporation adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement (FAS) No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," and FAS No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - - Income Recognition and Disclosure." See note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements for a further discussion of FAS Nos. 114 and 118. A loan is considered impaired when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all principal and interest amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. At December 31, 1995, the Corporation's impaired loans totaled $167 million, which was equal to the nonperforming loans total. Included in these impaired loans were $59 million, which had a related impairment reserve of $22 million, and $108 million that did not have a related reserve as a result of interest payments applied to reduce principal or credit losses previously taken on these loans. Average impaired loans during 1995 were $175 million. During the year, the Corporation recognized $13 million of interest revenue on impaired loans, all of which was recognized using the cash basis method of income recognition. 53 37 NONPERFORMING ASSETS (CONTINUED) - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Corporation recognizes any estimated potential decline in the value of OREO between appraisal dates on a property-by-property basis through periodic additions to the OREO reserve. Write-downs charged against this reserve are taken when OREO is sold at a loss or upon the receipt of appraisals which indicate a deterioration in the fair value of the property. Activity in the Corporation's OREO reserve for 1995, 1994 and 1993 is presented in the table below.

56 40 RESERVE FOR CREDIT LOSSES AND REVIEW OF NET CREDIT LOSSES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Dollar amounts in millions) 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reserve for credit losses at year-end $471 (a) $607 (a) $600 (a) $506 (a) $596 Reserve as a percentage of: Total loans 1.70% 2.27% 2.45% 2.54% 3.12% Nonperforming loans 282 403 297 152 113 Net credit losses as a percentage of average loans .91 (b) .27 .64 1.52 1.24 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (a) Excludes reserve for segregated assets. (b) The ratio of net credit losses, excluding credit losses on assets held for accelerated resolution, to average loans was .53% in 1995.
The reserve for credit losses was $471 million at December 31, 1995, or 1.70% of total loans, compared with $607 million, or 2.27% of total loans at December 31, 1994. The decrease in the reserve for credit losses from December 31, 1994, primarily resulted from credit losses taken on $193 million of CornerStone(sm) credit card loans that were transferred to the accelerated resolution portfolio in December 1995. In connection with this transfer, the Corporation evaluated the carrying value of these loans, which have a history of delinquency, and recorded a credit loss of $106 million to reflect the estimated net realizable value. The Corporation maintains a credit loss reserve that, in management's judgment, is adequate to absorb future losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Management reviews the adequacy of the reserve at least quarterly. For analytical purposes, the reserve methodology estimates loss potential in both the commercial and consumer loan portfolios. This methodology includes an evaluation of loss potential on individual problem credits, as well as a portfolio review of market concentrations, changing business trends, industry risks, and current and anticipated specific and general economic factors that may adversely affect collectability. Other factors considered in determining the level of the reserve include: trends in portfolio volume, quality, maturity and composition; historical loss experience; lending policies; new products; the status and amount of nonperforming and past-due loans and adequacy of collateral. In addition, management assesses volatile factors such as interest rates and real estate market conditions that may significantly alter loss potential. The loss reserve methodology also provides for a portion of the reserve to act as an additional buffer against credit quality deterioration or risk of estimation error. Although the determination of the adequacy of the reserve is based upon these factors, the reserve is not specifically associated with individual loans or portfolio segments. The ratio of the loan loss reserve to nonperforming loans at December 31, 1995, was 282%, compared with 403% at December 31, 1994. This ratio is not the result of a target or objective, but rather is an outcome of two interrelated but separate processes: the establishment of an appropriate loan loss reserve level for the portfolio as a whole, including but not limited to the nonperforming component in the portfolio; and the classification of certain assets as nonperforming in accordance with established accounting, regulatory and management policies. The ratio can vary significantly over time as the credit quality characteristics of the entire loan portfolio change. This ratio can also vary with shifts in portfolio mix. The decrease in this ratio from December 31, 1994, primarily resulted from credit losses recorded on the CornerStone(sm) credit card product. Net credit losses totaled $249 million in 1995, an increase of $182 million from 1994. This increase resulted from the high level of net credit card losses during the year, including $196 million related to the CornerStone(sm) credit card, a $190 million increase from 1994. The Corporation expects a significant reduction in net credit card losses in 1996 as a result of the actions taken on the delinquent portion of the CornerStone(sm) portfolio as well as the securitization of the $950 million of credit card loans. Partially offsetting net credit card losses were lower commercial real estate net credit losses in 1995. The level of credit losses and recoveries relative to outstanding loans can vary from period to period as a result of the size and number of individual credits that may require charge off, and the effects of changing economic conditions. 57 41 RESERVE FOR CREDIT LOSSES AND REVIEW OF NET CREDIT LOSSES (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

58 42 FOURTH QUARTER REVIEW - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Corporation reported net income applicable to common stock of $164 million and earnings per common share of $1.18 in the fourth quarter of 1995. These results compare with fourth quarter 1994 net income applicable to common stock of $157 million and earnings per common share of $1.05, excluding the $130 million after tax securities lending charge and the $16 million of preferred dividends recorded in connection with the redemption of the Series H preferred stock. Including the securities lending charge and the effects of the preferred stock redemption, fourth quarter 1994 net income applicable to common stock was $11 million, or $.07 per common share. Annualized return on common shareholders' equity and return on assets were 18.08% and 1.68%, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 1995. Annualized return on common shareholders' equity and return on assets, excluding the securities lending charge and the effect of the preferred stock redemption, were 16.49% and 1.74%, respectively in the fourth quarter of 1994. Annualized return on common shareholders' equity and return on assets, including the securities lending charge and the effect of the preferred stock redemption, were 1.10% and .42%, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 1994. Compared with the fourth quarter of 1994, the Corporation's fourth quarter 1995 results reflected higher fee revenue, offset in part by higher credit quality expense and lower net interest revenue. Net interest revenue totaled $382 million in the fourth quarter of 1995, down from $401 million in the fourth quarter of 1994. The decrease primarily resulted from the migration of retail customers from lower cost deposit products to higher cost products and the effect of the credit card securitization, which offset loan growth. The net interest margin on a taxable equivalent basis was 4.43% in the fourth quarter of 1995, a decrease of 42 basis points from 4.85% in the fourth quarter of 1994. Credit quality expense was $30 million in the fourth quarter of 1995, an increase of $20 million compared with the prior-year period. This increase resulted from a higher provision for credit losses that was made in response to credit losses taken on the CornerStone(sm) credit card portfolio. Net credit losses were $138 million in the fourth quarter of 1995, compared with $20 million in the fourth quarter of 1994. The increase resulted from a $123 million increase in net CornerStone(sm) credit card losses, including $106 million of credit losses on the CornerStone(sm) credit cards that were transferred to the accelerated resolution portfolio. Fee revenue was $444 million in the fourth quarter of 1995, an increase of $39 million compared with the fourth quarter of 1994. The increase primarily resulted from a $16 million increase in mortgage servicing revenues, a $7 million increase in credit card revenue, a $5 million increase in trust and investment management fees and a $3 million increase in syndication management fees. The increase in mortgage servicing revenue from the prior-year period, primarily resulted from acquisitions while the increase in credit card revenue was primarily related to the credit card securitization transaction. Operating expense for the fourth quarter of 1995 was $526 million, compared with $741 million in the prior-year period. Excluding net revenue from acquired property and the securities lending charge of $223 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 1994, operating expense increased 1% compared with the prior-year period. This increase primarily resulted from increases in the amortization of purchased mortgage servicing rights, staff expense and equipment expense partially offset by lower FDIC deposit insurance assessment expense and professional, legal and other purchased services expense. 59 43 SELECTED QUARTERLY DATA*

See accompanying Notes to Financial Statements. 65 49 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of presentation The accounting and financial reporting policies of Mellon Bank Corporation (the Corporation), a multibank holding company, conform to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and prevailing industry practices. The consolidated financial statements of the Corporation include the accounts of the Corporation and its majority-owned subsidiaries. Investments in companies 20 - 50% owned are carried on the equity basis. Investments in companies less than 20% owned are carried at cost. Intracorporate balances and transactions are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. The income statement includes results of acquired subsidiaries and businesses accounted for under the purchase method of accounting from the dates of acquisition. On August 24, 1994, the Corporation merged with The Dreyfus Corporation. This merger was accounted for as a pooling of interests. The financial information for all prior periods were restated in 1994 to present the combined balance sheet and results of operations of both companies as if the merger had been in effect for all periods presented. The parent Corporation financial statements in note 24 include the accounts of the Corporation and those of a wholly owned financing subsidiary that functions as a financing entity for the Corporation and its subsidiaries by issuing commercial paper and other debt guaranteed by the Corporation. Financial data for the Corporation and the financing subsidiary are combined for financial reporting because of the limited function of the financing subsidiary and the unconditional guarantee by the Corporation of the financing subsidiary's obligations. Securities and other property held in a fiduciary or agency capacity are not included in the balance sheet since these are not assets or liabilities of the Corporation. Nature of operations and use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements Mellon Bank Corporation is a multibank holding company whose principal wholly owned subsidiaries are Mellon Bank, N.A., The Boston Company, Inc. and Mellon Bank (DE) National Association. The Dreyfus Corporation, one of the nation's largest mutual fund companies, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mellon Bank, N.A. The Corporation's banking subsidiaries primarily engage in retail financial services, commercial banking, mortgage banking, trust and investment management services and mutual funds activities. While the Corporation's major subsidiaries are headquartered in the Northeast and Central Atlantic regions, most of its products and services are offered nationwide and many are offered globally. The Corporation's customer base is diversified and primarily domestic. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of related revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Trading account securities, securities available for sale and investment securities When purchased, securities are classified in either the trading account securities portfolio, the securities available for sale portfolio or the investment securities portfolio. Securities are classified as trading account securities when the intent is profit maximization through market appreciation and resale. Securities are classified as available for sale when management intends to hold the securities for an indefinite period of time or when the securities may be used for tactical asset/liability purposes and may be sold from time to time to effectively manage interest rate exposure, prepayment risk and liquidity needs. Securities are classified as investment securities when management intends to hold these securities until maturity. Trading account securities, including interest rate agreements, are stated at fair value. Trading revenue includes both realized and unrealized gains and losses. The liability incurred on short-sale transactions, representing the obligation to deliver securities, is included in other funds borrowed at fair value. 66 50 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) On January 1, 1994, FAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," became effective. Beginning in 1994, securities available for sale are stated at fair value; prior years' securities available for sale were recorded at the lower of aggregate cost or market value, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount on a level yield basis. Adoption of this standard resulted in unrealized gains or losses on assets classified as available for sale, net of tax, being recorded as an addition to or deduction from shareholders' equity. Investment securities are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount on a level yield basis. Gains (losses) on sales of securities available for sale are reported in the income statement. The cost of securities sold is determined on a specific identification basis. Loans Loans are reported net of any unearned discount. Interest revenue on nondiscounted loans is recognized based on the principal amount outstanding. Interest revenue on discounted loans is recognized based on methods that approximate a level yield. Loan origination and commitment fees, as well as certain direct loan origination and commitment costs, are deferred and amortized as a yield adjustment over the lives of the related loans. Deferred fees and costs are netted against outstanding loan balances. Commercial loans generally are placed on nonaccrual status when either principal or interest is past due 90 days or more, unless the loan is well- secured and in the process of collection. Management also places loans on nonaccrual status when the collection of principal or interest becomes doubtful. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, previously accrued and uncollected interest is reversed against current period interest revenue. Interest receipts on nonaccrual loans are recognized as interest revenue or are applied to principal when management believes the ultimate collectability of principal is in doubt. Nonaccrual loans generally are restored to an accrual basis when principal and interest payments become current or when the loan becomes well-secured and is in the process of collection. Residential mortgage loans generally are placed on nonaccrual status when, in management's judgment, collection is in doubt or the loans have outstanding balances of $250,000 or greater and are 90 days or more delinquent, or have balances of less than $250,000 and are delinquent 12 months or more. Consumer loans, other than residential mortgages, and certain secured commercial loans of less than $5,000 are charged off upon reaching various stages of delinquency depending upon the loan type. Unearned revenue on direct financing leases is accreted over the lives of the leases in decreasing amounts to provide a constant rate of return on the net investment in the leases. Revenue on leveraged leases is recognized on a basis to achieve a constant yield on the outstanding investment in the lease, net of the related deferred tax liability, in the years in which the net investment is positive. Gains on sales of lease residuals are included in other noninterest revenue. On January 1, 1995, the Corporation adopted FAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," and FAS No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan--Income Recognition and Disclosures." FAS No. 114 provides guidelines for measuring impairment losses on loans. A loan is considered to be impaired when it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all principal and interest amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. All of the Corporation's nonperforming loans, which totaled $167 million at December 31, 1995, are considered to be impaired loans. Average impaired loans during 1995 were $175 million. Under FAS No. 114, impaired loans subject to the statement are required to be measured based upon the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan's initial effective interest rate, or at the loan's market price or fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. If the loan valuation is less than the recorded value of the loan, an impairment reserve must be established for the difference. The impairment reserve is established by either an allocation of the reserve for credit losses or by a provision for credit losses, depending on the adequacy of the reserve for credit losses. Included in impaired loans at December 31, 1995 were $59 million that had a related impairment reserve of $22 million, and $108 million that did not have a related reserve as a result of 67 51 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) interest payments applied to reduce principal or credit losses previously taken on these loans. FAS No. 118 permits existing income recognition practices to continue. During the year, the Corporation recognized $13 million of interest revenue on impaired loans, all of which was recognized using the cash basis method of income recognition. Credit card securitization In November 1995, the Corporation securitized $950 million of credit card receivables. The amount of credit card interest revenue and fee revenue in excess of interest paid to certificate holders and credit losses is recognized monthly as servicing revenue in credit card fee revenue. Reserve for credit losses The reserve for credit losses is maintained to absorb future losses inherent in the credit portfolio based on management's judgment. Factors considered in determining the level of the reserve include: trends in portfolio volume, quality, maturity and composition; industry concentrations; lending policies; new products; adequacy of collateral; historical loss experience; the status and amount of nonperforming and past-due loans; specific known risks; and current, as well as anticipated, specific and general economic factors that may affect certain borrowers. Credit losses are charged against the reserve; recoveries are added to the reserve. Acquired property Property acquired in connection with loan settlements, including real estate acquired, is stated at the lower of estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell, or the carrying amount of the loan. A reserve for real estate acquired is maintained on a property-by-property basis to recognize estimated potential declines in value that might occur between appraisal dates. Provisions for the estimated potential decrease in fair value between annual appraisals, net gains on the sale of real estate acquired and net direct operating expense attributable to these assets are included in net expense (revenue) of acquired property. Premises and equipment Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated over the estimated useful lives of the assets, limited in the case of leasehold improvements to the lease term, using the straight-line method. Goodwill, other identified intangibles, mortgage servicing rights and purchased credit card relationships Intangible assets are amortized using straight-line and accelerated methods over the remaining estimated benefit periods which approximated, on a weighted-average basis at December 31, 1995, 16 years for goodwill, five years for core deposit intangibles, eight years for credit card relationships and nine years for all other intangible assets except mortgage servicing rights. Intangible assets are reviewed for possible impairment when events or changed circumstances may affect the underlying basis of the asset. Mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) are recorded at cost and are amortized in proportion to the estimated servicing income over the estimated life of the servicing portfolio. The Corporation adopted FAS No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights," in 1995. FAS No. 122 amends FAS No. 65, "Accounting for Certain Mortgage Banking Activities" and requires the recognition as separate assets the rights to service mortgage loans for others, however those servicing rights are acquired. This statement eliminates the previously existing accounting distinction between servicing rights acquired through purchase transactions and those acquired through loan originations. In 1995, $12 million of servicing rights were capitalized in connection with loan originations. 68 52 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) The carrying amount of MSRs was $592 million at December 31, 1995, with an estimated fair value of $661 million. The carrying amount of MSRs is measured for impairment each quarter based on the fair value of the MSRs. Quoted market prices are used, whenever available, as the basis for measuring the fair value of servicing rights. When quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based upon the present value of estimated expected future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risks involved. For impairment measurement purposes, servicing rights acquired after April 1, 1995, are first stratified by loan type and then by interest rates within the loan type. If the carrying value of an individual stratum exceeds its fair value, a valuation allowance would be established. No valuation allowances were recorded at December 31, 1995, as the carrying values of the various stratifications were less than their respective fair value. MSRs acquired prior to April 1, 1995, are stratified by acquisition and evaluated for possible impairment using fair market values. On a weighted-average basis at December 31, 1995, the serviced mortgage loan portfolio had an interest rate of approximately 7.95%. Assets held for accelerated resolution During the fourth quarter of 1995, the Corporation segregated certain loans from the CornerStone(sm) credit card portfolio into an accelerated resolution portfolio. The excess of the carrying value of these loans, which have a history of delinquency, over the estimated net realizable value was recorded as a credit loss. Interest and principal receipts, fees and loan loss recoveries on loans in this portfolio are applied to reduce the net carrying value. No revenue will be recorded on this portfolio until the net carrying value is recovered. This portfolio is reported in other assets in the balance sheet. Income Taxes The Corporation, its domestic subsidiaries and Mellon Bank Canada file a consolidated U.S. income tax return. The provision for U.S. income taxes of each subsidiary is recorded as if each subsidiary filed a separate return, except that tax benefits of current year losses, tax credits and tax benefit carryforwards are allocated to the subsidiaries incurring such losses or credits to the extent they reduce consolidated tax expense. Foreign currency translation Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange on the balance sheet date. Revenue and expense accounts are translated monthly at month-end rates of exchange. Net foreign currency positions are valued at rates of exchange--spot or future, as appropriate--prevailing at the end of the period, and resulting gains or losses are included in the income statement. Translation gains and losses on investments in foreign entities with functional currencies that are not the U.S. dollar are included in shareholders' equity. Fee revenue Trust and investment management fees are reported net of fees waived and expense reimbursements to certain mutual funds. Fees on standby letters of credit are recognized over the commitment term, while fees on commercial letters of credit, because of their short-term nature, are recognized when received. Fees on standby and commercial letters of credit are recorded in fee revenue. Fees for banking and other services generally are recognized over the periods the related services are provided. Off-balance-sheet instruments used for interest rate risk management The Corporation enters into interest rate swaps, futures and forward contracts and interest rate caps and floors to manage its sensitivity to interest rate risk. These instruments are designated as a hedge on the trade date and are highly correlated with the financial instrument being hedged. An example of a highly correlated hedge is the hedging of three-month Eurodollar deposits with three-month Eurodollar futures contracts. Interest revenue or interest expense on such transactions is accrued over the term of the agreement as an adjustment to the yield or cost of the related asset or liability. Transaction fees are deferred and amortized to interest revenue or interest expense over the term of the agreement. Realized gains and losses 69 53 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) are deferred and amortized over the life of the hedged transaction as interest revenue or interest expense, and any unamortized amounts are recognized as income or loss at the time of disposition of the assets or liabilities being hedged. Amounts payable to or receivable from counterparties are included in other liabilities or other assets. The fair values of interest rate swaps, futures and forward contracts and interest rate caps and floors used for interest rate risk management are not recognized in the financial statements. Hedge correlation of interest rate risk management positions is reviewed periodically. If correlation criteria are not met, the interest rate risk management position is no longer accounted for as a hedge. Under these circumstances, the accumulated change in market value of the hedge is recognized in current income to the extent that the hedge results have not been offset by the effects of interest rate or price changes of the hedged item. Off-balance-sheet instruments used for trading activities The Corporation enters into foreign exchange contracts, futures and forward contracts, interest rate swaps, option contracts and interest rate agreements to accommodate customers and for its proprietary trading activities. Realized and unrealized changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized in the income statement in foreign currency and securities trading revenue in the period in which the changes occur. Interest revenue and expense on instruments held for trading activities are included in the income statement as part of net interest revenue. The fair value of contracts in gain positions is reported on the balance sheet in other assets and the fair value of contracts in loss positions is reported in other liabilities. Statement of Cash Flows For the purpose of reporting cash flows, the Corporation has defined cash and cash equivalents as cash and due from banks. Cash flows from assets and liabilities that have an original maturity date of three months or less generally are reported on a net basis. Cash flows from assets and liabilities that have an original maturity date greater than three months generally are reported on a gross basis. Cash flows from hedging activities are classified in the same category as the items hedged. Net income per common share Net income per common share is computed using the "if-converted" method by dividing net income applicable to common stock by the average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding, net of shares assumed to be repurchased using the treasury stock method. Common stock equivalents arise from the assumed conversion of outstanding stock options, warrants and subscription rights. The Series D preferred stock was converted to common stock in August 1994. If the inclusion of the Series D preferred stock as common stock equivalents was dilutive, dividends on the Series D preferred stock were added back to net income for the purpose of calculating net income per common share. The average number of shares of common stock and equivalents used to compute primary net income per common share in 1995, 1994 and 1993 was 145.1 million, 149.1 million and 147.1 million, respectively. Fully diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income applicable to common stock by the average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding for items that are dilutive, net of shares assumed to be repurchased using the treasury stock method. These shares are increased by the assumed conversion of convertible items, if dilutive. The average number of shares of common stock and equivalents used to compute fully diluted net income per common share in 1995, 1994 and 1993 was 146.2 million, 149.2 million and 147.3 million, respectively. 2. CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS Cash and due from banks includes reserve balances that the Corporation's subsidiary banks are required to maintain with a Federal Reserve bank. These required reserves are based primarily on deposits outstanding and were $630 million at December 31, 1995, and $614 million at December 31, 1994. These balances averaged $569 million in 1995 and $621 million in 1994. 70 54 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.

SECURITIES (CONTINUED) In late 1995, the FASB issued "A Guide to Implementation of Statement 115 on Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, Questions and Answers." This guide permitted a one-time reassessment of the appropriateness of the classifications of securities as available for sale or held for investment. The Corporation elected to redesignate $530 million of GNMA fixed-rate pass-through securities with an unrealized gain of $22 million and $56 million of municipal securities with an unrealized gain of less than $1 million, from the investment securities category to the securities available for sale category. Gross realized gains on the sale of securities available for sale were $7 million, $16 million and $87 million in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Gross realized losses on the sale of securities available for sale were $1 million and $21 million in 1995 and 1994, respectively. There were no gross realized losses on the sale of securities available for sale in 1993. Proceeds from the sale of securities available for sale were $1.8 billion, $3.8 billion and $9.5 billion in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. At December 31, 1995 and 1994, net unrealized gains of $44 million and losses of $43 million, respectively, were recorded in shareholders' equity, net of tax, in accordance with FAS No. 115. There were no sales of investment securities in 1995 and 1994. In 1993, Dreyfus recorded $40 million of gross realized gains and $27 million of gross realized losses on the sale of investment securities. Proceeds from the sale of investment securities were $664 million in 1993. Securities available for sale, investment securities, trading account securities and loans, with book values of $3.1 billion at December 31, 1995, and $3.9 billion at December 31, 1994, were required to be pledged to secure public and trust deposits, and repurchase agreements, as well as for other purposes. 4. LOANS For details of the loans outstanding at December 31, 1995 and 1994, see the 1995 and 1994 columns of the "Composition of loan portfolio at year-end" table on page 50. The information in those columns is incorporated by reference into these Notes to Financial Statements. For details of the nonperforming and past-due loans at December 31, 1995 and 1994, see the amounts in the 1995 and 1994 columns of the "Nonperforming assets" and "Past-due loans" tables on pages 54 and 56. The information in those columns is incorporated by reference into these Notes to Financial Statements. Foregone interest on restructured loans was less than $1 million in 1995 and approximately $1 million in 1994. There was no foregone interest on restructured loans in 1993. 5.

The table above includes capital leases for premises and equipment at a net book value of $2 million at December 31, 1995, and less than $1 million at December 31, 1994. Rental expense was $121 million, $117 million and $104 million, respectively, net of related sublease revenue of $25 million, $33 million and $29 million, in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Depreciation and amortization expense totaled $107 million, $95 million and $90 million in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Maintenance, repairs and utilities expenses totaled $90 million, $89 million and $85 million in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. As of December 31, 1995, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are obligated under noncancelable leases (principally for banking premises) with expiration dates through 2020. A summary of the future minimum rental payments under noncancelable leases, net of related sublease revenue totaling $86 million, is as follows: 1996--$120 million; 1997--$114 million; 1998--$106 million; 1999--$107 million; 2000--$100 million and 2001 through 2020--$897 million. 7. RESERVE FOR REAL ESTATE ACQUIRED An analysis of the reserve for real estate acquired for 1995, 1994 and 1993 is presented in the "Reserve for real estate acquired" table on page 55 and is incorporated by reference into these Notes to Financial Statements. 8. SEGREGATED ASSETS Segregated assets represent commercial real estate and other commercial loans acquired in the December 1992 Meritor retail office acquisition that are on nonaccrual status, or are foreclosed properties, and are subject to a loss sharing arrangement with the FDIC. These delinquent assets, net of reserve, are reported in other assets in the balance sheet. The reserve for segregated assets is not included in the reserve for credit losses. Segregated assets totaled $24 million at December 31, 1995, including gross segregated assets of $28 million and a $4 million reserve for credit losses. At December 31, 1994, segregated assets totaled $85 million, including gross segregated assets of $89 million and a $4 million reserve for credit losses. As a result of the loss sharing arrangement with the FDIC, any of the performing commercial loans or performing commercial real estate loans acquired in the Meritor retail office acquisition that become nonaccrual before December 31, 1997, will be reclassified to segregated assets. The loss sharing provisions of the arrangement stipulate that, during the first five years, the FDIC will pay to Mellon Bank, N.A. 80% of the net credit losses on acquired commercial real estate and other commercial loans. During the sixth and seventh years of the arrangement, Mellon Bank, N.A. will pay to the FDIC 80% of any recoveries of charge-offs on such acquired loans that had occurred during the first five years of the arrangement. At the end of the 74 58 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8. SEGREGATED ASSETS (CONTINUED) seventh year, the FDIC will pay to Mellon Bank, N.A. an additional 15% of the sum of net charge-offs on the acquired loans that occurred during the first five years, less the recoveries during the sixth and seventh years of the arrangement in excess of $60 million. The $60 million credit loss threshold was reached in the first quarter of 1993. The FDIC will also reimburse Mellon Bank, N.A. for expenses incurred to recover amounts owed and net expenses incurred with respect to foreclosed properties derived from the acquired commercial real estate or commercial loans. Expenses are reimbursed by the FDIC in the same proportion as the reimbursement of net loan losses. In addition, the FDIC will reimburse Mellon Bank, N.A. for up to 90 days of delinquent interest on the assets covered by the loss sharing arrangement. Mellon Bank, N.A. is required to administer assets entitled to loss sharing protection in the same manner as assets held by Mellon Bank, N.A. for which no loss sharing exists. 9. OTHER ASSETS

10. SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS Federal funds purchased and securities under repurchase agreements represent funds acquired for securities transactions and other funding requirements. Federal funds purchased mature on the business day after execution. During 1995, the Corporation signed a $300 million three-year revolving credit agreement with several financial institutions that serves as a support facility for commercial paper and for general corporate purposes. This revolving credit facility has several restrictions, including a minimum 6% Tier 1 ratio, a 1.30 maximum double leverage limitation and a minimum nonperforming asset coverage ratio of 3 to 1. The nonperforming asset coverage ratio is Tier I capital plus the reserve for credit losses as a multiple of nonperforming assets. At December 31, 1995, the Corporation's double leverage ratio was 1.13 and the nonperforming asset coverage ratio was 15 to 1. The revolving credit facility is supplemented by a $25 million backup line of credit, bringing total commercial paper support facilities to $325 million. There were no other lines of credit to subsidiaries of the Corporation at December 31, 1995 or 1994. No borrowings were made under any facility in 1995 or 1994.

In June 1995, the Corporation issued the 6.30% fixed rates notes due 2000. Prior to issuance, the Corporation hedged the cost of this debt with an interest rate swap. This swap was terminated upon issuance of the debt. The effective interest rate of this debt, including the effect of the interest rate swap, is 6.54%. The Corporation's notes and debentures pay interest semiannually and are not redeemable prior to maturities. During 1995, the 6-1/8% and 5-3/8% senior notes and the Series B medium term notes matured as scheduled. The 6-1/2% and 6-3/4% Subordinated Notes due 2005 and 2003, and the fixed-rate Medium Term Bank Notes due 1998 through 2007, are subordinated to obligations to depositors and other creditors of Mellon Bank, N.A. The aggregate amounts of notes and debentures that mature during the five years 1996 through 2000, for the Corporation, are as follows: $23 million, $207 million, $18 million, $209 million and $205 million, respectively. The aggregate amounts of notes and debentures that mature during the five years 1996 through 2000, for Mellon Bank Corporation (parent Corporation), are as follows: $20 million, $205 million, $12 million, $204 million and $205 million, respectively. 12.

The Corporation has authorized 50,000,000 shares of Series Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share, at December 31, 1995. The table above summarizes the Corporation's preferred stock outstanding at December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993. 76 60 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12. PREFERRED STOCK (CONTINUED) The Series I, Series J and Series K preferred stocks are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Corporation at $25 per share plus accrued dividends at any time on or after August 15, 1996, February 15, 1997 and February 15, 1998, respectively. In the event of liquidation or dissolution of the Corporation, the rights of the Series I, Series J and Series K preferred stock are senior to the common stock with respect to dividends and distributions. If the equivalent of six quarterly dividends, whether or not consecutive, payable on Series I, Series J or Series K preferred stocks, are unpaid and not set aside for payment, the number of directors of the Corporation will be increased by two. The holders of the series of preferred stock for which dividends are unpaid, voting as a single class, will be entitled to elect the two additional directors to serve until all dividends in arrears have been paid or declared and set aside for payment. 13. EQUITY PURCHASE OPTIONS (WARRANTS) In connection with the acquisition of The Boston Company, the Corporation issued 4.5 million 10-year equity purchase options (warrants), each exercisable for one share of common stock. The warrants were exercisable at $33.33 per share at any time until their expiration on May 21, 2003. In 1995, the Corporation repurchased all of these warrants as part of a privately negotiated transaction with American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., a subsidiary of American Express Company. 14. NONINTEREST REVENUE The components of noninterest revenue for the three years ended December 31, 1995, are presented in the "Noninterest revenue" table on page 31. This table is incorporated by reference into these Notes to Financial Statements. 15. FOREIGN CURRENCY AND SECURITIES TRADING REVENUE The Corporation's trading activities involve a variety of financial instruments, including U.S. government securities, municipal securities and money market securities, as well as off-balance-sheet instruments. The majority of the Corporation's trading revenue is earned by structuring and executing off-balance-sheet instruments for customers. The Corporation also enters into positions in the interest rate, foreign exchange and debt markets based upon expectations of future market conditions. The resulting risks are limited by entering into generally matching or offsetting positions. Unmatched positions are monitored through established limits. To maximize net trading revenues, the market-making and proprietary positions are managed together by product. The results of the Corporation's foreign currency and securities trading activities are presented, by class of financial instrument, in the table below.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (in millions) 1995 1994 1993 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Deferred tax assets: Provision for credit losses and write-downs on real estate acquired $230 $254 $259 Accrued expense not deductible until paid 31 125 92 Occupancy expense 73 74 72 Other 28 77 32 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gross deferred tax assets 362 530 455 Valuation allowance - - (7) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gross deferred tax assets net of valuation allowance 362 530 448 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Deferred tax liabilities: Lease financing revenue 282 250 207 Salaries and employee benefits 21 16 44 Other 33 38 13 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gross deferred tax liabilities 336 304 264 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Net deferred tax asset $ 26 $226 $184 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Corporation determined that it was not required to establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for 1995 and 1994 because it is management's assertion that the deferred tax asset likely will be realized through: carryback to taxable income in prior years; future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences; and, to a lesser extent, future taxable income. However, the Corporation did record a valuation allowance upon the acquisition of The Boston Company, Inc. and subsidiaries in 1993. This valuation allowance primarily represented federal net operating loss carryforwards that were subject to limitation on their usage. As of the end of 1995, these carryforwards were fully utilized and the valuation allowance was reversed. 79 63 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 17. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS Pension plans The Corporation's largest subsidiaries--Mellon Bank, N.A., The Boston Company and Dreyfus--sponsor trusteed, noncontributory, defined benefit pension plans. Together, the plans cover substantially all salaried employees of the Corporation. The plans provide benefits that are based on employees' years of service and compensation. In addition, several unfunded plans exist for certain employees or for purposes that are not addressed by the funded plans. The Mellon Bank, N.A. plan is significantly overfunded, The Boston Company plan is moderately overfunded and the fair market value of plan assets of the Dreyfus plan are approximately equal to its accumulated benefit obligation. The Corporation amortizes all actuarial gains and losses and prior service costs over a 10-year period. The tables below report the combined data of these plans. Data for 1993 was not restated for Dreyfus because the amounts were immaterial.

80 64 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 17. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS (CONTINUED) The Corporation has a Long-Term Profit Incentive Plan (1981) which provides for the issuance of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, deferred cash incentive awards and shares of restricted stock to officers and key employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries as approved by the Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors. In addition, Dreyfus has a 1989 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan. Both plans are described below. Long-Term Profit Incentive Plan (1981) Stock options may be granted at prices not less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Options may be exercised during fixed periods of time not to exceed 10 years from the date of grant. In the event of certain changes in control of the Corporation, these options may become immediately exercisable. Total outstanding grants as of December 31, 1995, were 7,464,163 shares, of which 2,314,665 shares were exercisable. During 1995, 1994 and 1993, options for 1,777,625; 3,067,206; and 1,554,644 shares, respectively, were granted. As of December 31, 1995, options for 1,387,267 shares were available for grant. Included in the December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 outstanding grants were options for 860,856; 1,044,428; and 631,353 shares, respectively, that were issued at exercise prices ranging from $13.17 to $53.38 per share. These options become exercisable near the end of their 10 year terms, but exercise dates may be accelerated by the Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors, based on the optionee's performance. If so accelerated, compensation will be paid in the form of deferred cash incentive awards to reimburse the exercise price of these options if exercised prior to the original vesting date. The Corporation recognized $9 million of compensation expense for these options in 1995 and $8 million in both 1994 and 1993. As of December 31, 1995, the exercise date had been accelerated on options for 1,276,700 shares, of which 221,744; 4,972; and 301,482 were exercised in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Options for 1,382,327; 612,536; and 1,503,144 shares were exercised in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively, under the Long-Term Profit Incentive Plan, including the 221,744; 4,972; and 301,482 shares on which the exercise date was accelerated. 1989 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan A stock option plan at Dreyfus prior to the August 1994 merger provided for the issuance of stock options to key employees and key consultants who rendered services to Dreyfus, at a price of not less than 95% of the price of Dreyfus' common stock on The New York Stock Exchange on the day the option was granted. Options were not exercisable within two years nor more than 10 years from the date of grant. Options for Dreyfus stock were automatically converted into options for the Corporation's common stock on the merger date. Total outstanding grants as of December 31, 1995, were 814,207 shares, of which 708,982 shares were exercisable. No options were granted in 1995 and 1994. In 1993, options for 66,013 shares were granted. No further options will be granted under this plan. The shares under option included in the December 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993 outstanding grants were issued at exercise prices ranging from $18.23 to $31.53 per share. Options for 906,339; 26,900; and 7,096 shares were exercised in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. 81 65 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 17.

Stock Option Plan for Outside Directors (1989) The Corporation's Stock Option Plan for Outside Directors provides for the granting of options for shares of common stock to outside directors and advisory board members of the Corporation. The timing, amounts, recipients and other terms of the option grants are determined by the provisions of, or formulas in, the Directors' Option Plan. The exercise price of the options is equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date. All options have a term of 10 years from the date of grant and become exercisable one year from the grant date. Directors elected during the year are granted options on a pro rata basis to those granted to the directors at the start of the year. Total outstanding grants as of December 31, 1995, were 376,008 shares, of which 327,408 were exercisable and 158,637 shares were available for grant. Shares under option ranged from $17.00 to $38.75 per share for an aggregate of $11 million. During 1995, 1994 and 1993, options for 48,600; 52,563; and 50,648 shares, respectively, were granted at prices ranging from $37.33 to $38.75 per share. Options for 20,429; 4,298; and 27,729 shares were exercised in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Retirement Savings Plan Since April 1988, employees' payroll deductions into retirement savings accounts have been matched by the Corporation's contribution of common stock, at the rate of $.50 on the dollar, up to six percent of the employee's annual base salary with an annual maximum corporate contribution of $3,000 per employee. In 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Corporation recognized $10 million, $10 million and $9 million, respectively, of expense related to this plan and contributed 239,071; 276,535; and 229,317 shares, respectively. A portion of the shares contributed in 1995, 1994 and 1993 were issued from treasury stock. The plan held 1,752,409; 1,672,200; and 1,505,303 shares of the Corporation's common stock at December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Dreyfus has a separate retirement profit-sharing plan and a related deferred compensation plan that provide for the payment of death, disability and retirement benefits to Dreyfus employees or their beneficiaries in amounts equal to the value of their proportionate interests in the plan. Amounts expensed under the plans were $11 million, $10 million and $9 million for 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Profit Bonus Plan Awards are made to key employees at the discretion of the Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors. At the committee's election, awards may be paid in a lump sum or may be deferred and paid over a period of up to 15 years. Payouts under this plan were $20 million, $18 million and $19 million for 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively, and can be in the form of cash, restricted stock or restricted stock units. 82 66 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 17. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS (CONTINUED) Employee Stock Ownership Plan In 1989, an Employee Stock Ownership Plan was formed to hold certain shares of Mellon Bank Corporation common stock previously held in other defined contribution plans sponsored by the Corporation and its subsidiaries. At December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, this plan held 96,055; 95,709; and 116,367 shares, respectively, of the Corporation's common stock. The Corporation may make contributions to this plan from time to time. No contributions were made in 1995, 1994 or 1993. Postretirement benefits other than pensions The Corporation shares in the cost of providing managed care, Medicare supplement, and/or major medical programs for employees that retired prior to January 1, 1991. Employees who retire subsequent to January 1, 1991, who were between the ages of 55 and 65 on January 1, 1991, and had at least 15 years of service, are provided with a defined dollar supplement to assist them in purchasing health insurance. Early retirees who do not meet these age and service requirements are eligible to purchase health coverage at their own expense under the standard plans that are offered to active employees. In addition, the Corporation provides a small subsidy toward health care coverage for other active employees when they retire. These benefits are provided through various insurance carriers whose premiums are based on claims paid during the year. The cost of providing these benefits amounted to $10 million in 1995, $10 million in 1994 and $8 million in 1993. The Corporation adopted FAS No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions," on January 1, 1993. FAS No. 106 requires sponsors of plans providing certain health care and life insurance benefits to retired employees to expense the cost of these benefits over the estimated working lives of these employees, rather than expensing the costs as paid. The incremental expense of adopting FAS No. 106 was approximately $7 million for 1995, $7 million for 1994 and $3 million for 1993. This accounting standard was adopted on a prospective basis by beginning to amortize the transition obligation over a 20-year period. During 1995, the transition obligation was reduced by $18 million due to a change in the benefit program that requires current and future retirees to enroll in a managed care program. Previously, retirees were permitted to use any health care provider. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ACCUMULATED POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT OBLIGATION

83 67 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 17. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS (CONTINUED) A weighted average discount rate of 8% was used to estimate the net periodic benefit cost, and a 7% rate was used to value the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at year-end 1995. A health care cost trend rate was used to recognize the effect of expected changes in future health care costs due to medical inflation, utilization changes, technological changes, regulatory requirements and Medicare cost shifting. The future annual increase assumed in the cost of health care benefits was 11% for 1996 and was decreased gradually to 6% for 2003 and thereafter. The health care cost trend rate assumption can have a significant impact on the amounts reported. Increasing the assumed health care cost trend by one percentage point in each year would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation by approximately $4 million and the aggregate of the service and interest cost components of net periodic postretirement health care benefit cost by less than $1 million. FAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released FAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." FAS No. 123 establishes a fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans. FAS No. 123 permits entities to expense an estimated fair value of employee stock options or to continue to measure compensation cost for these plans using the intrinsic value accounting method contained in APB Opinion No. 25. Entities that elect to continue to use the intrinsic value method must provide pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if the fair value method of accounting had been applied. This standard became effective on January 1, 1996. The Corporation expects to continue to use the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans and will provide pro forma disclosures of the fair value based method in 1996. 18. RESTRICTIONS ON DIVIDENDS AND REGULATORY LIMITATIONS The prior approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) is required if the total of all dividends declared by a national bank subsidiary in any calendar year exceeds the bank subsidiary's net profits, as defined by the OCC, for that year, combined with its retained net profits for the preceding two calendar years. Additionally, national bank subsidiaries may not declare dividends in excess of net profits on hand, as defined, after deducting the amount by which the principal amount of all loans on which interest is past due for a period of six months or more exceeds the reserve for credit losses. Under the first and currently more restrictive of the foregoing dividend limitations, the Corporation's national bank subsidiaries can, without prior regulatory approval, declare dividends subsequent to December 31, 1995, of up to approximately $175 million of their retained earnings of $2.122 billion at December 31, 1995, less any dividends declared and plus or minus net profits or losses, as defined, between January 1, 1996, and the date of any such dividend declaration. The payment of dividends is also limited by minimum capital requirements imposed on all national bank subsidiaries by the OCC. The Corporation's national bank subsidiaries exceed these minimum requirements. The national bank subsidiaries declared dividends to the parent Corporation of $501 million in 1995, $366 million in 1994 and $185 million in 1993. The Federal Reserve Board and the OCC have issued additional guidelines that require bank holding companies and national banks to continuously evaluate the level of cash dividends in relation to their respective operating income, capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition. The Federal Reserve Act limits extensions of credit by the Corporation's bank subsidiaries to the Corporation and to certain other affiliates of the Corporation, requires such extensions to be collateralized and limits the amount of investments by the banks in these entities. At December 31, 1995, such extensions of credit and investments were limited to $465 million to the Corporation or any other affiliate and to $930 million in total to the Corporation and all of its other affiliates. Outstanding extensions of credit totaled $98 million at December 31, 1995. 84 68 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Various legal actions and proceedings are pending or are threatened against the Corporation and its subsidiaries, some of which seek relief or damages in amounts that are substantial. These actions and proceedings arise in the ordinary course of the Corporation's businesses and include suits relating to its lending, collections, servicing, investment, mutual fund, advisory, trust and other activities. Because of the complex nature of some of these actions and proceedings, it may be a number of years before such matters ultimately are resolved. After consultation with legal counsel, management believes that the aggregate liability, if any, resulting from such pending and threatened actions and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's financial condition. 20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK Off-balance-sheet risk In the normal course of business, the Corporation becomes a party to various financial transactions that generally do not involve funding. Because these transactions generally are not funded, they are not reflected on the balance sheet and are referred to as financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk. The Corporation offers off-balance-sheet financial instruments to enable its customers to meet their financing objectives and manage their interest- and currency-rate risk. Supplying these instruments provides the Corporation with an ongoing source of fee revenue. The Corporation also enters into these transactions to manage its own risks arising from movements in interest and currency rates and as part of its proprietary trading and funding activities. These off-balance-sheet instruments are subject to credit and market risk. Credit risk is limited to the estimated aggregate replacement cost of contracts in a gain position, should counterparties fail to perform under the terms of those contracts and any underlying collateral proves to be of no value. Credit risk is managed by subjecting the counterparties to the Corporation's credit approval and monitoring policies and procedures. Counterparty limits are monitored on an ongoing basis. Credit risk is often further mitigated by contractual agreements to net replacement cost gains and losses on multiple transactions with the same counterparty through the use of master netting agreements. Market risk arises from changes in the market value of contracts as a result of the fluctuations in interest and currency rates. The Corporation limits its exposure to market risk by entering into generally matching or offsetting positions and by establishing and monitoring limits on unmatched positions. Position limits are set by the Finance Committee and approved by the Office of the Chairman and the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors. Portfolio outstandings are monitored against such limits by senior managers and compliance staff independent of line areas. Financial instruments with contract amounts that represent credit risk: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
December 31, (Notional amounts in millions) 1995 1994 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Commitments to extend credit $21,264 $14,778 Standby letters of credit and foreign guarantees 3,446 2,923 Commercial letters of credit 98 137 Residential mortgage loans serviced with recourse 156 186 Custodian securities lent with indemnification against broker default of return of securities 18,157 15,127 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commitments to extend credit The Corporation enters into contractual commitments to extend credit, normally with fixed expiration dates or termination clauses, at specific rates and for specific purposes. Substantially all of the Corporation's commitments to extend credit are contingent upon customers maintaining specific credit standards at the time of loan funding. The majority of the Corporation's commitments to extend credit include material adverse change clauses within the commitment contracts. These clauses allow the Corporation to deny funding a loan commitment if the borrower's financial condition deteriorates during the commitment, such that the customer no longer meets the Corporation's credit standards. The Corporation's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the customer is represented by the contractual amount of the commitment to extend 85 69 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) credit. Accordingly, the credit policies utilized in committing to extend credit and in the extension of loans are the same. Market risk arises on fixed rate commitments if interest rates have moved adversely subsequent to the extension of the commitment. The Corporation believes the market risk associated with commitments is minimal. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total contractual amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount and type of collateral obtained by the Corporation is based upon industry practice, as well as its credit assessment of the customer. Of the $21 billion of contractual commitments for which the Corporation has received a commitment fee or which were otherwise legally binding--excluding credit card plans--approximately 27% of the commitments are scheduled to expire within one year, and an additional 58% are scheduled to expire within five years. Letters of credit and foreign guarantees There are two major types of letters of credit--standby and commercial letters of credit. The off-balance-sheet credit risk involved in issuing standby and commercial letters of credit is represented by their contractual amounts and is essentially the same as the credit risk involved in commitments to extend credit. The Corporation minimizes this risk by adhering to its written credit policies and by requiring security and debt covenants similar to those contained in loan agreements. The Corporation believes the market risk associated with letters of credit and foreign guarantees is minimal. Standby letters of credit and foreign guarantees obligate the Corporation to disburse funds to a third-party beneficiary if the Corporation's customer fails to perform under the terms of an agreement with the beneficiary. Standby letters of credit and foreign guarantees are used by the customer as a credit enhancement and typically expire without being drawn upon.

A commercial letter of credit is normally a short-term instrument used to finance a commercial contract for the shipment of goods from a seller to a buyer. This type of letter of credit ensures prompt payment to the seller in accordance with the terms of the contract. Although the commercial letter of credit is contingent upon the satisfaction of specified conditions, it represents a credit exposure if the buyer defaults on the underlying transaction. Normally, reimbursement from the buyer is coincidental with payment to the seller under commercial letter of credit drawings. As a result, the total contractual amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Residential mortgage loans serviced with recourse Certain residential mortgages were sold with servicing retained where the Corporation is subject to limited recourse provisions. The loans are collateralized by real estate mortgages and in certain instances are supported by either government sponsored or private mortgage insurance. 86 70 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) Securities lending A securities lending transaction is a fully collateralized transaction in which the owner of a security agrees to lend the security through an agent (the Corporation) to a borrower, usually a broker/dealer or bank, on an open, overnight or term basis, under the terms of a prearranged contract. The borrower will collateralize the loan at all times, generally with cash or U.S. government securities, exceeding 100% of the market value of the loan, plus any accrued interest on debt obligations. The Corporation currently enters into two types of securities lending arrangements, lending with and without indemnification. In securities lending transactions without indemnification, the Corporation bears no contractual risk of loss. For transactions in which the Corporation provides an indemnification, risk of loss occurs if the borrower defaults on returning the securities and the value of the collateral declines. Because the Corporation generally indemnifies the owner of the securities only for the difference between the par value of the securities and any collateral deficiency, the total contractual amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Credit risk associated with these instruments is discussed by type of instrument in the following paragraphs. (b) The combined credit risk on foreign currency contract commitments to purchase and sell was $334 million at December 31, 1995 and $213 million at December 31, 1994.
Foreign currency contracts Commitments to purchase and sell foreign currency facilitate the management of market risk by ensuring that, at some future date, the Corporation or a customer will have a specified currency at a specified rate. The Corporation enters into foreign currency contracts on behalf of its customers, as well as for its own account as part of its proprietary trading activities. The notional amount of these contracts at December 31, 1995, was $10.8 billion to purchase and $10.9 billion to sell. This notional amount does not represent the actual market or credit risk associated with this product. Market risk arises from changes in the market value of contractual positions caused by movements in currency rates. The Corporation limits its exposure to market risk by entering into generally matching or offsetting positions and by establishing and monitoring limits on unmatched positions. Credit risk relates to the ability of the Corporation's counterparty to meet its obligations under the contract and generally is limited to the estimated aggregate replacement cost of those foreign currency contracts in a gain position. Replacement cost totaled approximately $334 million and $213 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, and is recorded on the balance sheet. There were no settlement or counterparty default losses on foreign 87 71 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) currency contracts in 1995, 1994 or 1993. The Corporation manages credit risk by dealing only with approved counterparties under specific credit limits and by monitoring the amount of outstanding contracts by customer and in the aggregate against such limits. The future cash requirements, if any, related to foreign currency contracts are represented by the net contractual settlement between the Corporation and its counterparties. Foreign currency and other option contracts written and purchased Foreign currency and other option contracts grant the contract purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to purchase or sell a specified amount of a foreign currency or other financial instrument during a specified period at a predetermined price. The Corporation acts as both a purchaser and seller of foreign currency and other option contracts. Market risk arises from changes in the value of contractual positions caused by fluctuations in currency rates, interest rates and security values underlying the option contracts. Market risk is managed by entering into generally matching or offsetting positions and by establishing and monitoring limits on unmatched positions. Credit risk and future cash requirements are similar to those of foreign currency contracts. The estimated aggregate replacement cost of purchased foreign currency and other option contracts in gain positions was less than $1 million at December 31, 1995 and $1 million at December 31, 1994, and is recorded on the balance sheet. There were no settlement or counterparty default losses on foreign currency and other option contracts in 1995, 1994 or 1993. Futures and forward contracts Futures and forward contracts on securities or money market instruments represent future commitments to purchase or sell a specified instrument at a specified price and date. Futures contracts are standardized and are traded on organized exchanges, while forward contracts are traded in over-the-counter markets and generally do not have standardized terms. The Corporation uses futures and forward contracts in connection with its proprietary trading activities. For instruments that are traded on an organized exchange, the exchange assumes the credit risk that a counterparty will not settle and generally requires a margin deposit of cash or securities as collateral to minimize potential credit risk. The Corporation has established policies governing which exchanges and exchange members can be used to conduct these activities, as well as the number of contracts permitted with each member and the total dollar amount of outstanding contracts. Credit risk associated with futures and forward contracts is limited to the estimated aggregate replacement cost of those futures and forward contracts in a gain position and was less than $1 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994. Credit risk related to futures contracts is substantially mitigated by daily cash settlements with the exchanges for the net change in futures contract value. There were no settlement or counterparty default losses on futures and forward contracts in 1995, 1994 or 1993. Market risk is similar to the market risk associated with foreign currency and other option contracts. The future cash requirements, if any, related to futures and forward contracts, are represented by the net contractual settlement between the Corporation and its counterparties. Interest rate swaps Interest rate swaps obligate two parties to exchange one or more payments generally calculated with reference to fixed or periodically reset rates of interest applied to a specified notional principal amount. Notional principal is the amount upon which interest rates are applied to determine the payment streams under interest rate swaps. Such notional principal amounts often are used to express the volume of these transactions but are not actually exchanged between the counterparties. The credit risk associated with interest rate swaps is limited to the estimated aggregate replacement cost of those agreements in a gain position. Replacement cost totaled $52 million and $51 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, and is recorded on the balance sheet. Credit risk is managed through credit approval procedures that establish specific lines for 88 72 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) individual counterparties and limits of credit exposure to various portfolio segments. Counterparty and portfolio outstandings are monitored against such limits on an ongoing basis. Credit risk is further mitigated by contractual arrangements with the Corporation's counterparties that provide for netting replacement cost gains and losses on multiple transactions with the same counterparty. The Corporation has entered into collateral agreements with certain counterparties to interest rate swaps to further secure amounts due. The collateral is generally cash and/or U.S. government securities. There were no counterparty default losses on interest rate swaps in 1995, 1994 or 1993. Market risk arises from changes in the market value of contractual positions caused by movements in interest rates. The Corporation limits its exposure to market risk by generally entering into matching or offsetting positions and by establishing and monitoring limits on unmatched positions. The future cash requirements of interest rate swaps are limited to the net amounts payable under these swaps. At December 31, 1995, 94% of these interest rate swaps are scheduled to mature in less than five years. Options, caps, floors and forward rate agreements An interest rate option is a contract that grants the purchaser the right to either purchase or sell a financial instrument at a specified price within a specified period of time. An interest rate cap is a contract that protects the holder from a rise in interest rates or some other underlying index beyond a certain point. An interest rate floor is a contract that protects the holder against a decline in interest rates or some other underlying index below a certain point. A forward rate agreement is an agreement to exchange dollar amounts at a specified future date based on the difference between a particular interest rate index and an agreed upon fixed rate. The credit risk associated with options, caps and floors purchased was $3 million at year end 1995 and $16 million at year-end 1994 and is recorded on the balance sheet. Options, caps and floors written do not expose the Corporation to credit risk. Market risk arises from changes in the market value of contractual positions caused by movements in interest rates. The Corporation limits its exposure to market risk by entering into generally matching or offsetting positions and by establishing and monitoring limits on unmatched positions.

Credit risk associated with these instruments is discussed by type of instrument in the following paragraphs. (b) At December 31, 1995 and 1994, there were no options, caps and floors written.
Interest rate swaps The Corporation enters into interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy primarily to alter the interest rate sensitivity of its deposit liabilities. At December 31, 1995, the Corporation used $7,967 million of interest rate swaps for interest rate risk management purposes compared with $10,985 million at December 31, 1994. The credit and market risk associated with these instruments is explained on pages 88 and 89 under "Interest rate swaps." The replacement cost of swap agreements in a gain position was $51 million and $2 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Net interest revenue in 1995 and 1994 included less than $1 million and $3 million, respectively, of amortized deferred gains from terminated interest rate swaps. 89 73 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) Options, caps, floors, forward rate agreements and futures contracts Other interest rate products--primarily options, interest rate caps, interest rate floors, forward rate agreements and futures contracts--also are used by the Corporation as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. The Corporation had $735 million and $349 million notional amounts of these instruments outstanding at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The credit and market risk associated with these instruments is explained on pages 88 and 89 under "Futures and forward contracts" and "Options, caps, floors and forward rate agreements." The replacement cost of those instruments in a gain position totaled $4 million and $8 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The Corporation periodically issues notes and debentures for general corporate purposes, including the funding of debt maturities. At December 31, 1995, a $250 million forward rate agreement was carried by the Corporation to lock in the cost of an anticipated 10-year debt issuance. At December 31, 1995, an unrealized net loss of $12 million was deferred on this forward rate agreement. This loss will be recognized as an increase in interest expense over the term of the debt, which is expected to be issued in the first quarter of 1996. Other products Other products consist of forward foreign exchange contracts and total return swaps. The Corporation had $35 million of forward foreign exchange contracts at December 31, 1995. These contracts are used to minimize the net income and capital impact of foreign currency translation gains or losses created by investments in foreign branches and subsidiaries. The Corporation had $73 million of total return swaps at December 31, 1995. These swaps are used by the Corporation to minimize the risk related to the Corporation's investment in start-up mutual funds that are based on specific market indices. Concentrations of credit risk In its normal course of business, the Corporation engages in activities with a significant number of domestic and international counterparties. The maximum risk of accounting loss from on- and off-balance-sheet financial instruments with these counterparties is represented by their respective balance sheet amounts and the contractual or replacement cost of the off- balance-sheet financial instruments. Approximately 33% of the Corporation's total on- and off-balance-sheet financial instruments with credit risk at December 31, 1995, were with consumers and consumer-related industries, compared with approximately 35% at December 31, 1994. This credit exposure consisted principally of loans and the related interest receivable on the balance sheet and off-balance-sheet loan commitments and letters of credit. Consumers to which the Corporation has credit exposure primarily are located within the Central Atlantic region and are affected by economic conditions within that region. Financial institutions--which include finance-related companies, domestic and international banks and depository institutions, securities and commodities brokers, and insurance companies--accounted for approximately 17% of the Corporation's total on- and off-balance-sheet financial instruments with credit risk at December 31, 1995, compared with approximately 16% at December 31, 1994. The Corporation's on-balance-sheet credit exposure to financial institutions included short-term liquid assets consisting of due from banks and money market investments, loans and the related interest receivable and investment securities. In addition, the Corporation had off-balance-sheet credit exposure to financial institutions consisting of commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. The Corporation had credit exposure to the U.S. government, including its corporations and agencies, totaling approximately 9% of its on- and off- balance-sheet financial instruments with credit risk at December 31, 1995, compared with approximately 10% at December 31, 1994. Substantially all of this exposure consisted of investment securities, 90 74 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) securities available for sale and the related interest receivable and balances due from the Federal Reserve. No other concentration of credit risk exceeded 10% of the Corporation's total credit risk arising from on- and off-balance-sheet financial instruments at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. 21. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS FAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires the disclosure of the estimated fair value of on- and off-balance-sheet financial instruments. A financial instrument is defined by FAS No. 107 as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity, or a contract that creates a contractual obligation or right to deliver to or receive cash or another financial instrument from a second entity on potentially favorable terms. Fair value estimates are made at a point in time, based on relevant market data and information about the financial instrument. FAS No. 107 specifies that fair values should be calculated based on the value of one trading unit without regard to any premium or discount that may result from concentrations of ownership of a financial instrument, possible tax ramifications, estimated transaction costs that may result from bulk sales or the relationship between various financial instruments. Because no readily available market exists for a significant portion of the Corporation's financial instruments, fair value estimates for these instruments are based on judgments regarding current economic conditions, currency and interest rate risk characteristics, loss experience and other factors. Many of these estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and cannot be determined with precision. Therefore, the calculated fair value estimates cannot always be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, may not be realizable in a current sale of the instrument. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. Fair value estimates do not include anticipated future business or the value of assets, liabilities and customer relationships that are not considered financial instruments. For example, the Corporation's fee-generating businesses--which contributed 52% of revenue in 1995--are not incorporated into the fair value estimates. Other significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments include lease finance assets, deferred tax assets, lease contracts, premises and equipment and intangible assets. Accordingly, the estimated fair value amounts of financial instruments do not represent the entire value of the Corporation. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments at December 31, 1995 and 1994: Short-term financial instruments The carrying amounts reported on the Corporation's balance sheet generally approximate fair value for financial instruments that reprice or mature in 90 days or less, with no significant change in credit risk. The carrying amounts approximate fair value for cash and due from banks; money market investments; acceptances; demand deposits; money market and other savings accounts; federal funds purchased and securities under repurchase agreements; U.S. Treasury tax and loan demand notes; commercial paper; and certain other assets and liabilities. Trading account securities, securities available for sale and investment securities Trading account securities are recorded at market value on the Corporation's balance sheet, including amounts for off-balance-sheet instruments held for trading activities. Market values of trading account securities, securities available for sale and investment securities generally are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, market value is estimated using quoted market prices for securities with similar credit, maturity and interest rate characteristics. The tables in note 3 present in greater detail the carrying value and market value of securities available for sale and investment securities at December 31, 1995 and 1994. 91 75 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 21. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED) Loans The estimated fair value of performing commercial loans and certain consumer loans that reprice or mature in 90 days or less approximates their respective carrying amounts adjusted for a credit risk factor based upon the Corporation's historical credit loss experience. The estimated fair value of performing loans, except for consumer mortgage loans and credit card loans, that reprice or mature in more than 90 days is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality and for similar maturities. Fair value of consumer mortgage loans is estimated using market quotes or discounting contractual cash flows, adjusted for prepayment estimates. Discount rates were obtained from secondary market sources, adjusted to reflect differences in servicing, credit and other characteristics. The estimated fair value of credit card loans is developed using estimated cash flows and maturities based on contractual interest rates and historical experience. Estimated cash flows are discounted using market rates adjusted for differences in servicing, credit and other costs. This estimate does not include the value that relates to new loans that will be generated from existing cardholders over the remaining life of the portfolio, a value that is typically reflected in market prices realized in credit card portfolio sales. The estimated fair value for nonperforming commercial real estate loans is the "as is" appraised value of the underlying collateral. For other nonperforming loans, the estimated fair value represents carrying value less a credit risk adjustment based upon the Corporation's historical credit loss experience. Deposit liabilities FAS No. 107 defines the estimated fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, which includes demand deposits and money market and other savings accounts, to be the amount payable on demand. Although market premiums paid for depository institutions reflect an additional value for these low- cost deposits, FAS No. 107 prohibits adjusting fair value for any value expected to be derived from retaining those deposits for a future period of time or from the benefit that results from the ability to fund interest-earning assets with these deposit liabilities. The fair value of fixed-maturity deposits which reprice or mature in more than 90 days is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. Notes and debentures The fair value of the Corporation's notes and debentures is estimated using quoted market yields for the same or similar issues or the current yields offered by the Corporation for debt with the same remaining maturities. The table on the following page includes financial instruments, as defined by FAS No. 107 whose estimated fair value is not represented by the carrying value as reported on the Corporation's balance sheet. Management has made estimates of fair value discount rates that it believes to be reasonable considering expected prepayment rates, rates offered in the geographic areas in which the Corporation competes, credit risk and liquidity risk. However, because there is no active market for many of these financial instruments, management has no basis to verify whether the resulting fair value estimates would be indicative of the value negotiated in an actual sale. 92 76 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 21.

(a) Market or dealer quotes were used to value the reported balance of these financial instruments. (b) Approximately 77% and 75% of total performing loans, excluding consumer mortgages and credit card receivables, reprice or mature within 90 days at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Excludes lease finance assets of $830 million and $815 million as well as the related reserve for credit losses of $6 million and $17 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Lease finance assets are not considered financial instruments as defined by FAS No. 107. (c) Excludes non-financial instruments. (d) FAS No. 107 defines the estimated fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, which includes demand deposits and money market and other savings accounts, to be equal to the amount payable on demand. Therefore, the positive effect of the Corporation's $20.141 billion and $18.950 billion of such deposits at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, are not included in this table.
Commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and foreign guarantees These financial instruments generally are not sold or traded, and estimated fair values are not readily available. However, the fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and foreign guarantees is estimated by discounting the remaining contractual fees over the term of the commitment using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements and the present credit-worthiness of the counterparties. Other off-balance-sheet financial instruments The estimated fair value of off-balance-sheet instruments used for trading activities--which includes foreign exchange contracts, interest rate swaps, option contracts, interest rate caps and floors and futures and forward contracts--is equal to the on-balance-sheet carrying amount of these instruments. The estimated fair value of off-balance-sheet instruments used for interest rate risk management purposes--which includes interest rate swaps, interest rate caps and floors and forward rate agreements--is estimated by obtaining quotes from brokers. These values represent the estimated amount the Corporation would receive or pay to terminate the agreements, considering current interest and currency rates, as well as the current credit-worthiness of the counterparties. Off-balance-sheet financial instruments are further discussed in note 20, "Financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk and concentrations of credit risk." 93 77 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 21.

The Corporation issued 48.3 million shares of common stock for all of the outstanding common stock of Dreyfus. The merger was accounted for under the pooling of interests method of accounting. The Corporation's financial statements have been restated for all periods prior to the merger to include the reported results of Dreyfus. Operating results, prior to restatement, for the Corporation and Dreyfus for the period ended June 30, 1994, and the year ended December 31, 1993, are presented below.

On May 21, 1993, the Corporation acquired The Boston Company, Inc. (TBC), headquartered in Boston. TBC, through Boston Safe Deposit and Trust Company and other subsidiaries, engages in the businesses of institutional trust and custody, institutional asset management and private asset management. Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, the Corporation acquired all of the stock of Boston Group Holdings, Inc., the holding company for TBC and its subsidiaries, and paid a combination of $1.291 billion in cash, 3.75 million shares of the Corporation's common stock and 10-year warrants to purchase an additional 4.5 million shares of the Corporation's common stock at $33.33 per share. This acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The results of TBC have been included in the Corporation's income statement since the acquisition date. 95 79 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 23. MERGER AND ACQUISITION (CONTINUED) The condensed pro forma combined operating results provided in the table below are presented as if the acquisition had been effective on January 1, 1993 and combines TBC's results of operations for the period January 1, 1993 through May 20, 1993 and the Corporation's historical results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1993, which include TBC's results of operations from May 21, 1993 to December 31, 1993. The pro forma results include adjustments for the effect of the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles, the elimination of certain assets and liabilities at the closing of the transaction, as well as the elimination of the revenues and expense attributable to nine subsidiaries of TBC that were conveyed via dividend to the seller prior to the closing date of the transaction. In addition, merger expenses of $175 million, or $112 million after tax, have been eliminated from the combined historical results of operations as these expenses do not represent ongoing expenses of the Corporation. The pro forma information is intended for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have actually occurred had the acquisition been in effect for the period presented.

98 82 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF MELLON BANK CORPORATION: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Mellon Bank Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1995. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Mellon Bank Corporation and subsidiaries at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Corporation, as of January 1, 1994, adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."
