NOTE 5 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income". This statement establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general purpose financial statements and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The purpose of reporting comprehensive income is to report a measure of all changes in equity of the Company that result from recognized transactions and other economic events of the period other than transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. The components of other comprehensive income for the Company for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 were as follows: 9

NOTE 6 - RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1997, SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" was issued. This statement requires that a public business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company intends to comply with this statement in 1998. In February 1998, SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits" was issued. The statement standardizes the disclosure requirements for pensions and other postretirement benefits to the extent practicable. In addition, the new statement requires additional information on changes in benefit obligations and fair value of plan assets and eliminates certain disclosures that are no longer useful. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company intends to comply with this statement in 1998. In June 1998, SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" was issued. This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. This statement is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The Company intends to comply with this statement in 2000. NOTE 7 - STOCK SPLIT On March 25, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split effected in the form of a 100% stock dividend payable on May 15, 1998 to shareholders of record on May 1, 1998. Information relating to earnings per share, dividends per share and other share data has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this stock split. 10 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion provides certain information concerning the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements for the periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, found elsewhere in this report. On March 25, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split effected in the form of a 100% stock dividend payable on May 15, 1998 to shareholders of record on May 1, 1998. Information relating to earnings per share, dividends per share and other share data has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this stock split. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net Income The Company's net income for the second quarter of 1998 was $13.40 million compared to $12.25 million in the second quarter of 1997. For the first six months of 1998, net income was $26.40 million, an increase of 10.51% from $23.89 million for the same period of 1997. For the second quarter of 1998, basic and diluted earnings per common share were $0.30, compared to basic earnings per common share of $0.28 and diluted earnings per common share of $0.27 for the same period of 1997. For the first six months of 1998, basic and diluted earnings per common share were $0.59, compared to basic earnings per common share of $0.54 and diluted earnings per common share of $0.53 for the same period of 1997. The annualized returns on average assets for the second quarter of 1998 and 1997 were 1.21% and 1.29%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, the annualized returns on average assets were 1.22% and 1.27% for 1998 and 1997, respectively. Net Interest Revenue Net interest revenue, the difference between interest earned on assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, is the largest component of the Company's net income. For purposes of this discussion, all interest revenue has been adjusted to a fully taxable equivalent basis. The primary items of concern in managing net interest revenue are the mix and maturity balance between interest-sensitive assets and liabilities. Net interest revenue was $43.95 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998, compared to $41.78 million for the same period in 1997. For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, net interest revenue was $86.81 million and $81.92 million, respectively. Earning assets averaged $4.14 billion in the second quarter and $4.05 billion for the first six months of 1998, compared with $3.56 billion and $3.52 billion in the respective periods in 1997. Average interest-bearing liabilities were $3.52 billion in the second quarter and $3.45 billion for the first six months of 1998, compared with $3.00 billion and $2.97 billion in the respective periods in 1997. Net interest revenue, expressed as a percentage of average earning assets, was 4.25% for the second quarter of 1998 as compared to 4.63% for the same period of 1997 and 4.33% for the first six months of 1998 as compared to 4.62% for the same period of 1997. 11 Provision for Credit Losses The provision for credit losses charged to operating expense is an amount which, in the judgment of management, is necessary to maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level that is adequate to meet the present and potential risks of losses in the Company's current portfolio of loans. Management's judgment is based on a variety of factors which include the Company's experi- ence related to loan balances, charge-offs and recoveries, scrutiny of individual loans and risk factors, results of regulatory agency reviews of loans, and present and anticipated future economic conditions of the Company's market area. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term are a necessary part of this process. Future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company's allowance for credit losses. These agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. The provision for credit losses totaled $3.09 million for the second quarter of 1998 compared to $2.17 million for the same period of 1997. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the provision for credit losses totaled $6.01 million and $3.65 million, respectively. The increase in the provision for credit losses for 1998 compared to 1997 reflects the increased level of net loans charged off and the increased level of non-performing loans. Other Revenue Other revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, totaled $11.67 million compared to $10.56 million for the same period of 1997, a 10.5% increase. For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, other revenue was $23.32 million and $21.18 million, respectively, a 10.1% increase. The most significant change in other revenue was in mortgage lending where revenue of $5.22 million was recorded during the first six months of 1998 compared to $3.78 million in the same period of 1997. Stable and relatively low mortgage rates during the first half of 1998 resulted in increased mortgage loan originations. Service charges on deposit accounts for the first six months increased 6.8%. Trust income increased 10.6% during the first six months of 1998 over the same period of 1997. Other Expense Other expense totaled $31.24 million for the second quarter of 1998, a 3.08% increase from the same period of 1997. For the six months ended June 30, 1998, other expenses totaled $62.34 million, a 2.6% increase over 1997's. The most significant change in a component of other expense relates to the Company's stock option plans, expense for which is reported under the caption salaries and employee benefits. Certain of the stock option plans contain a provision for stock appreciation rights (SARs) which require the recognition of expense 12 for stock price appreciation. During 1998, the Company has recovered expense because of the decline in the Company's stock price from December 31, 1997. During the second quarter of 1998, expense recovery of $417,000 was recorded. For the six month period ended June 30, 1998, expense recovery of $1,197,000 has been recorded. This compares to expense of $556,000 in the second quarter of 1997 and expense of $562,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997. Deposit insurance was $308,000 for the six months ended 1998 compared to the same period last year of $197,000. The other components of other expense reflect normal increases and general inflation in the cost of services and supplies purchased by the Company. Income Tax Income tax expense was $6.78 million and $5.97 million for the second quarters of 1998 and 1997, respectively. For the six month period ended June 30, 1998, income tax expense was $13.24 million compared to $11.63 million for the same period in 1997. FINANCIAL CONDITION Earning Assets The percentage of earning assets to total assets measures the effectiveness of management's efforts to invest available funds into the most efficient and profitable uses. Earning assets at June 30, 1998 were $4.18 billion, or 92.9% of total assets, compared with $3.74 billion, or 89.6% at December 31, 1997. The securities portfolio is used to make various term investments, to provide a source of liquidity and to serve as collateral to secure certain types of deposits. Held-to-maturity securities at June 30, 1998, were $784.3 million compared with $533.4 million at the end of 1997, a 47.0% increase. Available-for-sale securities were $377.7 million at June 30, 1998, compared to $406.2 million at December 31, 1997. The loan portfolio of the Company's bank subsidiary makes up the largest single component of the Company's earning assets. The Company's lending activities include both commercial and consumer loans. Loan originations are derived from a number of sources including direct solicitation by the Company's loan officers, real estate broker referrals, mortgage loan companies, present savers and borrowers, builders, attorneys, walk-in customers and, in some instances, other lenders. The Company has established disciplined and systematic procedures for approving and monitoring loans that vary depending on the size and nature of the loan. Loans, net of unearned discount, totaled $2.91 billion at June 30, 1998, which represents a 5.4% increase from the December 31, 1997 total of $2.76 billion. At June 30, 1998, the Company did not have any concentrations of loans in excess of 10% of total loans outstanding. Loan concentrations are considered to exist when there are amounts loaned to a multiple number of borrowers engaged in similar activities that would cause them to be similarly impacted by economic or other conditions. However, the Company does conduct business in a geographically concentrated area. The ability of the Company's borrowers to repay loans is to some extent dependent upon the economic conditions prevailing in its market area. 13 In the normal course of business, management becomes aware of possible credit problems in which borrowers exhibit potential for the inability to comply with the contractual terms of their loans, but which do not currently meet the criteria for disclosure as problem loans. Historically, some of these loans are ultimately restructured or placed in non-accrual status. The Company's policy provides that loans, other than installment loans, are generally placed on non-accrual status if, in management's opinion, payment in full of principal or interest is not expected, or when payment of principal or interest is more than 90 days past due, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Non-performing loans were 0.56% of all loans outstanding at June 30, 1998, compared to 0.44% at the end of 1997. Non- performing loans are up at June 30, 1998, primarily as a result of one loan that management has determined is not collectible. This loan was foreclosed upon during the third quarter of 1998. Allowance for Credit Losses The Company attempts to maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level which, in the opinion of management, is adequate to meet the present and potential risks of losses on its current portfolio of loans. Management's judgement is based on a variety of factors that include examining potential losses in specific credits and considering the general risks associated with lending functions such as current and anticipated economic conditions, business trends in the Company's region and nationally, historical experience as related to losses, changes in the mix of the loan portfolio and credits which bear substantial risk of loss but which cannot be readily quantified. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term are a necessary part of this process. Future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company's allowance for credit losses. These agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. Management does not believe the allowance for credit losses can be fragmented by category of loans with any precision that would be useful to investors but is doing so in this report only in an attempt to comply with disclosure requirements of regulatory agencies. The allocation of allowance by loan category is based in part on evaluations of specific loans' past history and on economic conditions within specific industries or geographical areas. Accordingly, since all of these conditions are subject to change, the allocation is not necessarily indicative of the breakdown of any future losses. The following table presents (a) the allocation of the allowance for credit losses by loan category and (b) the percentage of each category in the loan portfolio to total loans for the dates indicated. 14

Deposits and Other Interest-bearing Liabilities Deposits originating within the communities served by the Bank continue to be the Company's primary source of funding its earning assets. Total deposits at the end of the second quarter of 1998 were $3.85 billion as compared to 15 $3.54 billion at December 31, 1997, representing an 8.8% increase. Non- interest bearing deposits increased by $21.0 million while interest bearing deposits grew $291.1 million from December 31, 1997 to June 30, 1998. Included in the deposit growth is approximately $175 million of public funds obtained in the first quarter of 1998 and scheduled to mature in the third quarter of 1998. These funds were used to purchase investment securities with similar maturities. The Company also borrowed $125 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank during the first quarter of 1998. Of these funds, $50 million matures in 10 years, $50 million matures in 15 years and $25 million matures in 20 years. These borrowings were initially invested in short-term securities and are to be used by the Company over time to fund loans of similar maturities. LIQUIDITY Liquidity is the ability of the Company to fund the needs of its borrowers, depositors and creditors. The Company's traditional sources of liquidity include maturing loans and investment securities, purchased federal funds and its base of core deposits. Management believes these sources are adequate to meet liquidity needs for normal operations. The Company continues to pursue a lending policy stressing adjustable rate loans, in furtherance of its strategy for matching interest sensitive assets with an increasingly interest sensitive liability structure. CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company is required to comply with the risk-based capital requirements of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. These requirements apply a variety of weighting factors, which vary according to the level of risk associated with the particular assets. At June 30, 1998, the Company's Tier 1 capital and total capital, as a percentage of total risk-adjusted assets, were 12.11% and 13.36%, respectively. Both ratios exceed the required minimum levels for these ratios of 4.0% and 8.0%, respectively. In addition, the Company's leverage capital ratio (Tier 1 capital divided by total assets, less goodwill) was 8.38% at June 30, 1998, compared to the required minimum leverage capital ratio of 4%. The Company's current capital position continues to provide it with a level of resources available for the acquisition of depository institutions and businesses closely related to banking in the event opportunities arise. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK During the three months ended June 30, 1998, there were no material changes to the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risks presented in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997. 16 PART II OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 4.
