Item 7.01 - Regulation FD Disclosure

Pursuant to Regulation FD, information is being furnished as an Exhibit to this Current Report with respect to presentation material to be used by Fulton in connection with presentation to be made by R. Scott Smith, Jr., Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Fulton, on February 9, 2006.  This presentation provides an overview of Fulton’s strategy and performance.

The presentation may contain forward-looking statements about Fulton’s growth and acquisition strategies, new products and services, and future financial performance, including earnings and dividends per share, return on average assets, return on average equity, efficiency ratio and capital ratio.  Forward-looking statements are encouraged by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Such forward-looking information is based upon certain underlying assumptions, risks and uncertainties.  Because of the possibility of change in the underlying assumptions, actual results could differ materially from these forward looking statements.  Risks and uncertainties that may affect future results include: pricing pressures on loans and deposits, actions of bank and non-bank competitors, changes in local and national economic conditions, changes in regulatory requirements, actions of the Federal Reserve Board, Fulton’s success in merger and acquisition integration, and customer acceptance of the Corporation’s products and services. Fulton undertakes no obligation to revise or update such statements to reflect current events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
