NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2005 and 2004.

Note 1 — Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements included in this report have been prepared by Park National Corporation (the “Registrant”, “Corporation”, “Company”, or “Park”) without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations for the interim periods included herein have been made. The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be anticipated for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q, and therefore, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed balance sheets, condensed statements of income, condensed statements of changes in stockholders’ equity and condensed statements of cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements incorporated by reference in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Park for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 from Park’s 2004 Annual Report to Shareholders.

The operating results for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 include the acquisitions of First Federal on December 31, 2004 and First Clermont on January 3, 2005. Both acquisitions were accounted for as purchases and did not have any impact on the 2004 operating results for Park.

Park does not have any off-balance sheet derivative financial instruments such as interest-rate swap agreements.

Note 2 – Acquisition, Branch Sale and Intangible Assets

On January 3, 2005, Park acquired all of the stock of First Clermont Bank (First Clermont) of Milford, Ohio for $52,500,000 in an all cash transaction accounted for as a purchase. Immediately following Park’s stock acquisition, First Clermont merged with Park’s subsidiary, The Park National Bank. First Clermont is being operated as a separate division of The Park National Bank. The goodwill recognized as a result of this acquisition was $28,369,000. The fair value of the acquired assets of First Clermont were $185,372,000 and the fair value of the liabilities assumed were $161,241,000 at January 3, 2005.

On February 11, 2005, Park’s subsidiary, Century National Bank, sold its Roseville, Ohio branch office. The Roseville branch office was acquired in connection with the acquisition of First Federal Bancorp, Inc. (First Federal) on December 31, 2004. The Federal Reserve Board required that the Roseville branch office be sold as a condition of their approval of the merger transactions involving Park and First Federal. The deposits sold with the Roseville branch office totaled $12,419,000 and the loans sold with the branch office totaled $5,273,000. Century National Bank received a premium of $1,184,000 from the sale of the deposits.

The following table shows the activity in goodwill and the core deposit intangibles during the first six months of 2005.

			Core Deposit
(In thousands)	Goodwill		Intangibles		Total
December 31, 2004	$	34,187	$	6,700	$	40,887

Amortization		—		<1,274>		<1,274>
June 30, 2005	$	61,696	$	8,766	$	70,462

Goodwill and core deposit intangibles are included in other assets on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Goodwill is evaluated on an annual basis for impairment. Goodwill was evaluated for impairment during the first quarter of 2005, and no impairment charge was necessary.

Core deposit intangibles are being amortized to expense using the straight-line method over periods ranging from six to eight years. Core deposit intangibles amortization expense was $637,000 for the second quarter of 2005 compared to $370,000 for the second quarter of 2004 and was $1,274,000 for the first six months of 2005 compared to $740,000 for the first half of 2004.

Note 3- Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is that amount believed adequate to absorb estimated credit losses in the loan portfolio based on management’s evaluation of various factors including overall growth in the loan portfolio, an analysis of individual loans, prior and current loss experience, and current economic conditions. A provision for loan losses is charged to operations based on management’s periodic evaluation of these and other pertinent factors. The following table shows the activity in the allowance for loan losses for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004.

The operating results of the Parent Company and Guardian Finance Company (GFC) in the All Other column are used to reconcile the segment totals to the consolidated income statements for the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. The reconciling amounts for consolidated total assets for both of the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 consist of the elimination of intersegment borrowings, and the assets of the Parent Company and GFC which are not eliminated.

Note 6 — Stock Option Plans

Park accounts for its incentive stock option plans under the recognition and measurement principles provided in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB 25) and related interpretations. Under APB 25, because the exercise price of Park’s employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, as amended by SFAS 148, requires pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share for companies not adopting its fair value accounting method for stock-based employee compensation. The pro-forma disclosures below use the fair value method of SFAS 123 to measure compensation expense for stock-based employee compensation plans.

The Park National Corporation 2005 Incentive Stock Option Plan was approved by shareholders at the Park Annual Meeting of Shareholders on April 18, 2005. This new plan authorizes a maximum of 1.5 million common shares with respect to which incentive stock options may be granted. Park granted 227,000 incentive stock options during the second quarter of 2005.

On April 14, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced the adoption of a new rule that delays the dates for compliance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004) (SFAS No. 123R). SFAS No. 123R was previously scheduled to become mandatory for public entities, such as Park, that do not file as small business issuers as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. The SEC’s new rule allows these public entities to implement SFAS No. 123R at the beginning of the next fiscal year that begins after June 15, 2005. SFAS No. 123R prohibits companies from using APB 25 for the accounting of stock options and requires that grants of stock options be charged to expense. Companies are permitted to adopt SFAS No. 123R earlier than the beginning of their next fiscal year, but the management of Park intends to adopt SFAS No. 123R on January 1, 2006.

SFAS No. 123R permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two methods. The “modified prospective” method recognizes compensation expense beginning with the effective date for all stock options granted after the effective date and for all stock options that become vested after the effective date. The “modified retrospective” method includes the requirements of the “modified prospective” method described above, but also permits entities to restate prior period results based on the amounts previously recognized under SFAS No. 123 for purposes of pro forma disclosures.

Park has not made a determination as to which method it will utilize upon adoption of SFAS No. 123R.

The amortized cost and fair values of investment securities are shown in the following table. Management evaluates investment securities on a quarterly basis for permanent impairment. No impairment charges have been deemed necessary in 2005 and 2004. The unrealized losses are primarily the result of changes in interest rates and will not prohibit Park from receiving its contractual principal and interest payments.

Note 9 – Benefit Plans

Park has a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of its employees. The plan provides benefits based on an employee’s years of service and compensation.

Park’s funding policy is to contribute annually an amount that can be deducted for federal income tax purposes using a different actuarial cost method and different assumptions from those used for financial reporting purposes. A pension plan contribution of $9,688,096 was made during the first quarter of 2005.

Note 10 – Accounting Changes

The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position (SOP) 03-3, “Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities in a Transfer”, in December 2003. SOP 03-3 addresses accounting for differences between contractual cash flows and cash flows expected to be collected from an investor’s initial investment in loans or debt securities acquired in a transfer if those differences are attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. SOP 03-3 was effective for loans acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2004. The adoption of SOP 03-3 did not have a material impact on Park’s financial statements. This SOP was considered in the accounting for the acquisition of First Clermont on January 3, 2005.

Emerging Issues Task Force 03-1 (EITF 03-1), The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments: In March 2004, FASB reached a consensus on EITF 03-1, which clarifies the application of an impairment model to determine whether investments are other-than-temporary impaired. The provisions of EITF 03-1 must be applied prospectively to all current and future investments accounted for in accordance with SFAS 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” On September 15, September 30, and November 15, 2004, the FASB issued proposed staff positions to provide guidance on the application and scope of certain paragraphs and to defer the effective date of the impairment measurement and recognition provisions contained in specific paragraphs of EITF 03-1. On June 29, 2005, FASB decided to not provide additional guidance on the meaning of other-than-temporary impairment for EITF 03-1, but directed the staff to issue FSP FAS 115-1 “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment upon the Planned Sale of a Security Whose Cost Exceeds Fair Value”. FSP FAS 115-1 will be effective for other-than-temporary impairment analysis conducted in periods beginning after September 15, 2005. The management of Park does not expect that the new accounting guideline on other-than-temporary impairment will have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition at the time of the adoption.

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that are provided to assist in the understanding of anticipated future financial performance. Forward-looking statements provide current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not guarantees of future performance. The forward-looking statements are based on management’s expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Although management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially include, without limitation, Park’s ability to execute its business plan, changes in general economic and financial market conditions, changes in banking regulations or other regulatory or legislative requirements affecting bank holding companies and changes in accounting policies or procedures as may be required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other regulatory agencies. Undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Park does not undertake any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement except to the extent required by law.

Park’s Board of Directors approved a 5% stock dividend in November 2004. The additional common shares resulting from the dividend were distributed on December 15, 2004 to stockholders of record as of December 1, 2004. The consolidated financial statements, notes and references to share and per share data have been retroactively restated for the stock dividend.

The operating results for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 include the acquisitions of First Federal on December 31, 2004 and First Clermont on January 3, 2005. Both acquisitions were accounted for as purchases and did not have any impact on the 2004 operating results for Park.

Critical Accounting Policies

Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Park’s 2004 Annual Report lists significant accounting policies used in the development and presentation of its financial statements. The accounting and reporting policies of Park conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

-19-

Park considers that the determination of the allowance for loan losses involves a higher degree of judgement and complexity than its other significant accounting policies. The allowance for loan losses is calculated with the objective of maintaining a reserve level believed by management to be sufficient to absorb estimated credit losses in the loan portfolio. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is based on periodic evaluations of the loan portfolio and of current economic conditions. However, this evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates, including expected default probabilities, loss given default, expected commitment usage, the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, and estimated losses on consumer loans and residential mortgage loans based on historical loss experience and the current economic conditions. All of those factors may be susceptible to significant change. To the extent that actual results differ from management estimates, additional loan loss provisions may be required that would adversely impact earnings for future periods.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 142, “Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” establishes standards for the amortization of acquired intangible assets and impairment assessment of goodwill. At June 30, 2005, Park had core deposit intangibles of $8.8 million subject to amortization and $61.7 million of goodwill, which was not subject to periodic amortization. Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible assets in the business acquired. Park’s goodwill relates to the value inherent in the banking industry and that value is dependent upon the ability of Park’s banking subsidiaries to provide quality, cost effective banking services in a competitive marketplace. The goodwill value of $61.7 million is supported by revenue that is in part driven by the volume of business transacted. A decrease in earnings resulting from a decline in the customer base or the inability to deliver cost effective services over sustained periods can lead to impairment of goodwill that could adversely impact earnings in future periods. SFAS No. 142 requires an annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment. This evaluation was performed during the first quarter of 2005 and no impairment charge was necessary.

Comparison of Results of Operations
For the Three and Six Month Periods Ended
June 30, 2005 and 2004

Summary Discussion of Results

Net income increased by $685,000 or 2.8% to $24.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to $24.1 million for the same period in 2004. For the first half of 2005, net income increased by $1.0 million or 2.2% to $48.1 million compared to $47.1 million for the same period in 2004. The annualized, net income to average asset ratio (ROA) was 1.75% for the second quarter of 2005 and 1.72% for the first half of 2005, compared to 1.92% for the second quarter of 2004 and 1.89% for the first six months of 2004. The annualized, net income to average equity ratio (ROE) was 17.81% for the second quarter of 2005 and 17.37% for the first half of 2005 compared to 18.29% for the second quarter of 2004 and 17.63% for the first half of 2004.

Diluted earnings per share increased by 3.0% to $1.72 for the second quarter of 2005 and increased by 2.8% to $3.33 for the first half of 2005 compared to the same periods in 2004.

For the three months ended June 30, 2005, income before taxes benefited from a $2.9 million increase in net interest income, a $580,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses, a $1.4 million increase in other income and a $96,000 gain from the sale of investment securities. Operating expenses increased by $4.0 million in 2005 compared to 2004.

For the six months ended June 30, 2005, income before taxes benefited from a $4.7 million increase in net interest income, a $963,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses and a $2.6 million increase in other income. The gain from the sale of investment securities was $96,000 in 2005 compared to $106,000 in 2004. Operating expenses increased by $6.9 million in 2005 compared to 2004.

For both the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2005, the primary reason for the increase in net interest income, other income and operating expense is the acquisitions of First Federal on December 31, 2004 and First Clermont on January 3, 2005. First Federal had $253 million of assets at the time of its acquisition and First Clermont had $185 million of assets on January 3, 2005. The operating results from First Federal and First Clermont are not included in the operating results of Park for 2004.

Net Interest Income Comparison for the Second Quarter of 2005 and 2004

Park’s principal source of earnings is net interest income, the difference between total interest income and total interest expense. Net interest income was $55.4 million for the second quarter of 2005 and $52.5 million in 2004. The following table compares the average balance and tax equivalent yield/cost for interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities for the second quarter of 2005 with the same quarter in 2004.

Net Interest Margin				4.26	%				4.54	%

Average interest earning assets increased by $560 million or 11.9% to $5,279 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same quarter in 2004. This increase is primarily due to the acquisitions of First Federal and First Clermont, whose interest earning assets totaled $416 million at the time of acquisition. First Federal had $238 million of interest earning assets at December 31, 2004 and First Clermont had $178 million of interest earning assets at January 3, 2005.

The average yield on interest earning assets increased to 6.05% for the second quarter of 2005 compared to 5.72% for the second quarter of 2004. The average federal funds rate was 2.94% for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 1.00% for the same period in 2004. The Federal Reserve Board has increased the federal funds rate by 25 basis points at each of its meetings from June 30, 2004 thru June 30, 2005. As a result, the federal funds rate has increased from 1.00% at June 29, 2004 to 3.25% at June 30, 2005. Park’s management expects that the Federal Reserve Board will continue to increase the federal funds rate at a measured pace (25 basis points per meeting) for the next few meetings with the federal funds rate increasing to 4.00% or 4.25% by year-end 2005. Management expects that the average yield on interest earning assets will increase each quarter for the remainder of 2005.

-22-

Average loan balances increased by $468 million or 16.8% to $3,260 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. This increase is primarily due to the acquisitions of First Federal and First Clermont, whose loans totaled $384 million at the time of acquisition. First Federal had $223 million of loans at December 31, 2004 and First Clermont had $161 million of loans at January 3, 2005. At June 30, 2005, total loans were $3,280 million compared to $3,250 million at March 31, 2005, an increase of $30 million. Management expects that loan balances will continue to increase during the third quarter of 2005 as the loan commitments for commercial loans continue to be fairly strong and the demand for consumer loans has improved.

The average yield on the loan portfolio was 6.73% for the second quarter of 2005 compared to 6.26% for the same period in 2004. Management expects that the yield on the loan portfolio will continue to gradually increase as adjustable rate loans reprice at higher yields.

Average investment securities, including federal funds sold, were $2,020 million for the second quarter of 2005 compared to $1,927 million for the same period in 2004. Management expects that the average balance of investment securities will decrease to approximately $1,810 million during the third quarter of 2005. Management sold $132 million of taxable investment securities on June 30, 2005 and does not expect to reinvest the proceeds from the sale during the third quarter of 2005. Additionally, management does not plan on reinvesting the maturities and repayments of investment securities (approximately $105 million) during the third quarter of 2005. The cash flow from the investment portfolio will be used to reduce borrowings. This investment strategy could change if longer term interest rates would increase significantly and improve the investment opportunities available to management.

At June 30, 2005, the tax equivalent yield on the investment portfolio was 4.93% and the average maturity was 4.3 years. U.S. Government Agency asset-backed securities were approximately 92% of the total investment portfolio at the end of the second quarter of 2005. This segment of the investment portfolio consists largely of seasoned fifteen-year mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations, which are backed by fifteen-year mortgage-backed securities.

The average maturity of the investment portfolio would lengthen if long-term interest rates would increase as the principal repayments from mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations would be reduced. Management estimates that the average maturity of the investment portfolio would lengthen to 4.9 years with a 100 basis point increase in long-term interest rates and to 5.2 years with a 200 basis point increase in long-term interest rates.

Average interest bearing liabilities increased by $547 million or 14.1% to $4,422 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same quarter in 2004. This increase is primarily due to the acquisitions of First Federal and First Clermont. The average cost of interest bearing liabilities increased to 2.13% for the second quarter of 2005 compared to 1.44% for the second quarter of 2004.

-23-

Average interest bearing deposits increased by $276 million or 9.4% to $3,207 million for the second quarter of 2005 compared to the second quarter of 2004. This increase was primarily due to the acquisitions of First Federal and First Clermont. At June 30, 2005, total deposits were $3,861 million compared to $3,690 million at December 31, 2004. This indicates that total deposit balances increased by $171 million during the first half of 2005. However, adjusting the increase in total deposits for the acquisition of First Clermont ($136 million) and the sale of the Roseville branch office ($12 million) results in total deposits increasing from organic growth by $47 million during the first six months of 2005.

Average short-term borrowings decreased by $129 million to $307 million for the second quarter of 2005 compared to the second quarter of 2004. The average cost of short-term borrowings increased to 2.40% for the second quarter of 2005 compared to 1.12% for the same period in 2004. The average federal funds rate was 2.94% for the second quarter of 2005 compared to 1.00% for the second quarter of 2004.

Average long-term borrowings increased by $401 million to $908 million for the second quarter of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. The average cost of long-term borrowings was 3.55% for the second quarter of 2005 compared to 2.44% for the second quarter of 2004.

Average total borrowings were $1,215 million for the second quarter of 2005 compared to $944 million for the second quarter of 2004. Management expects that average total borrowings will be approximately $1,030 million during the third quarter of 2005. The expected decrease in average total borrowings is a result of the anticipated decrease in average investment securities.

Net interest income increased by $2.9 million or 5.5% to $55.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to $52.5 million for the same period in 2004. The net interest spread (the difference between the yield on interest earning assets and the cost of interest bearing liabilities) decreased by 36 basis points to 3.92% in 2005 compared to 4.28% in 2004. The tax equivalent net interest margin (defined as net interest income divided by average interest earning assets) decreased by 28 basis points to 4.26% in 2005 compared to 4.54% in 2004. The increase in average earning assets of $560 million or 11.9% enabled Park to earn $2.9 million more in net interest income for the second quarter of 2005 compared to the second quarter of 2004.

-25-

Average interest bearing deposits increased by $279 million or 9.5% to $3,208 million for the first six months of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. The average cost of interest bearing deposits increased to 1.63% for the first half of 2005 compared to 1.34% for the first half of 2004.

Average short-term borrowings decreased to $294 million for the first six months of 2005 compared to $420 million for the same period in 2004. The average cost of short-term borrowings increased to 2.22% for the first half of 2005 compared to 1.24% for the first half of 2004.

Average long-term borrowings were $862 million for the first half of 2005 compared to $497 million for the same period in 2004. The average cost of long-term borrowings increased to 3.48% for the first half of 2005 compared to 2.36% for the same period in 2004.

Net interest income increased by $4.7 million or 4.5% to $109.9 million for the first half of 2005 compared to the first half of 2004. The net interest spread decreased by 33 basis points to 3.98% in 2005 compared to 4.31% in 2004. The net interest margin decreased by 27 basis points to 4.31% for the first six months of 2005 compared to 4.58% for the same period in 2004. The increase in average earnings assets of $521 million or 11.1% enabled Park to earn $4.7 million or 4.5% more in net interest income for the first half of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004.

In the Financial Review section of Park’s 2004 Annual Report (pages 28 and 31), management projected the following for 2005 – loans would increase by slightly more than the 6.1% annual growth rate in 2004 (page 28 under “Investment of Funds – Loans”), deposits would increase by approximately 2.5% (page 28 under “Source of Funds – Deposits”) and the net interest margin for 2005 would be approximately 4.35% (page 31 under “Earning Results”).

Loans increased by $30 million during the second quarter of 2005 after decreasing by $27 million during the first quarter of 2005. Management expects that loans will increase during the second half of 2005, but anticipates that the annual growth rate for the year will be less than 6%.

Deposits increased by an additional $22 million during the second quarter of 2005 after increasing by $25 million during the first quarter of 2005. Deposits appear to be on pace to grow by approximately 2.5% to 3.0% in 2005.

The net interest margin for the first half of 2005 was 4.31%. Management expects that the net interest margin for the second half of 2005 will be approximately 4.35%.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses decreased by $580,000 to $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2005 compared to $1.9 million for the same period in 2004. Net loan charge-offs were $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2005 compared to $1.7 million for the second quarter of 2004. Net loan charge-offs as an annualized percentage of average loans were .16% for the second quarter of 2005 and .25% for the second quarter of 2004.

-26-

The provision for loan losses decreased by $963,000 to $2.4 million for the first six months of 2005 compared to $3.4 million for the same period in 2004. Net loan charge-offs were $2.2 million for the first six months of 2005 compared to $2.4 million for the same period in 2004. Net loan charge-offs as an annualized percentage of average loans were .14% for the first half of 2005 and .18% for the same period in 2004.

The reserve for loan losses as a percentage of outstanding loans was 2.14% at June 30, 2005 compared to 2.19% at December 31, 2004 and 2.29% at June 30, 2004. Nonperforming loans, defined as loans that are 90 days past due, renegotiated loans and nonaccrual loans were $28.3 million or .86% of loans at June 30, 2005 compared to $28.8 million or .92% of loans at December 31, 2004 and $24.0 million or .86% of loans at June 30, 2004.

The net loan charge-off ratio for the past four years has been .28% for 2004, .43% for 2003, .48% for 2002 and .37% for 2001. Management expects that if the net loan charge-off ratio for 2005 is similar to the results in 2004, the loan loss provision for all of 2005 will be similar to the loan loss provision for all of 2004 of $8.6 million. Management also expects that the reserve for loan losses as a percentage of outstanding loans will decrease during 2005 if the net loan charge-off ratio and the ratio of nonperforming loans to loans remain similar to the 2004 ratios. See Footnote 3 for a discussion of the factors considered by management in determining the provision for loan losses.

Total Other Income

Total other income increased by $1.4 million or 10.0% to $15.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and increased by $2.6 million or 9.8% to $29.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same periods in 2004. The following table is a summary of the change in total other income.

(In Thousands)
	Three Months Ended							Six Months Ended
	June 30,							June 30,
	2005		2004		Change			2005		2004		Change
Fees from Fiduciary Activities	$	3,040	$	2,819	$	221		$	5,967	$	5,542	$	425
Service Charges on Deposit Accounts		4,384		3,970		414			8,457		7,546		911
Other Service Income		2,763		2,811		<48	>		5,106		5,463		<357	>

Total	$	15,454	$	14,046	$	1,408		$	29,566	$	26,918	$	2,648

The increase in total other income for both periods is primarily due to the acquisitions of First Federal and First Clermont.

First Federal and First Clermont did not earn any fees from fiduciary activities. The growth in this fee income is primarily due to an increase in the number of trust account customers.

The increase in service charges on deposit accounts is due to the acquisition of First Federal and First Clermont. Without the acquisitions, service charges on deposit accounts for 2005 would be approximately the same as in 2004.

Other service income is the fee income earned from the origination and sale of fixed rate mortgage loans and the fees earned from servicing the fixed rate mortgage loans and other consumer loans. This fee income includes the capitalization and amortization of mortgage loan servicing rights. The volume of fixed rate mortgage loan originations is less in 2005 than 2004 and as a result the related fee income decreased in 2005 compared to 2004.

The subcategory of other income includes fees earned from our check card product, fee income from the sale of printed checks, fees earned from automatic teller machines and all other sources of fee income. About one third of the increase in this subcategory of fee income was due to the acquisitions and the remaining increase was primarily due to increases in volume of transactions with customers.

Total other income for Park was $52.6 million for the entire year of 2004. The increase in total other income for the first six months of 2005 was $2.6 million or 9.8% compared to the same period in 2004. Management expects that total other income will be approximately $58 million to $59 million for the entire year of 2005. This implies growth of about 12.5% for the second half of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. This estimate for 2005 is consistent with the guidance provided in the Financial Review section (page 31 under “Other Income”) of Park’s 2004 Annual Report.

-28-

Gain (Loss) on Sale of Securities

A gain on the sale of investment securities of $96,000 was realized during the second quarter of 2005. Park sold $132 million of U.S. Agency fifteen year mortgage-backed securities at a give-up yield of 4.59%. The proceeds from the sale were used to repay borrowed money.

A gain on the sale of investment securities of $106,000 was realized during the first quarter of 2004. This gain was from the sale of equity investments.

Other Expense

Total other expense increased by $4.0 million or 13.3% to $34.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and increased by $6.9 million or 11.2% to $68.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same periods in 2004. The increase in total other expense for both periods is primarily due to the acquisitions of First Federal and First Clermont. Full-time equivalent employees were 1,843 at June 30, 2005 compared to 1,668 at June 30, 2004, an increase of 175 or 10.5% in full-time equivalent employees. The two acquisitions increased full-time equivalent employees by approximately 120 or 7.2%. The remaining increase of 55 or 3.3% in full-time equivalent employees was due to normal growth.

Salaries and employee benefits expense increased by $2.5 million or 14.4% to $19.6 million for the second quarter of 2005 compared to $17.1 million for the second quarter of 2004. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased by $4.3 million or 12.2% to $39.55 million for the first six months of 2005 compared to $35.24 million for the same period in 2004. The increase for both periods is primarily due to the acquisitions of First Federal and First Clermont.

Total other expense for Park was $126.3 million for the entire year of 2004. If total other expense increased at the same rate as the first half of 2005 (11.2%) for the entire year, total other expense would be $140.4 million for 2005. Management expects that total other expense will be approximately $140 million to $141 million for 2005. This estimate of total other expense for 2005 is a little less than the guidance provided in the Financial Review Section (page 31 under “Other Expense”) of Park’s 2004 Annual Report.

Federal Income Taxes

Federal income tax expense was $10.5 million and $20.3 million, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 compared to $10.3 million and $19.9 million for the same periods in 2004. The ratio of federal income tax expense to income before taxes was 29.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 29.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 29.9% for the second quarter of 2004 and 29.7% for the first half of 2004. The statutory federal income tax rate was 35% for both 2005 and 2004. The difference between the effective federal income tax rate and the statutory rate is primarily due to tax exempt interest income from state and municipal loans and investments and low income housing tax credits.

Park and its subsidiary banks do not pay state income tax to the state of Ohio, but pay a franchise tax based on their year-end equity. The franchise tax expense is included in other expense. State tax expense was $763,000 and $1.5 million, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 compared to $663,000 and $1.3 million for the same periods in 2004.

Comparison of Financial Condition
At June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004

Changes in Financial Condition and Liquidity

Total assets increased by $221 million or 4.1% to $5,633.3 million at June 30, 2005 compared to $5,412.6 million at December 31, 2004. The increase in total assets was primarily due to the acquisition of First Clermont Bank on January 3, 2005. The First Clermont Division of The Park National Bank had total assets of $240 million at June 30, 2005.

Loan balances increased by $159.8 million or 5.1% to $3,280.4 million at June 30, 2005 compared to $3,120.6 million at December 31, 2004. However, adjusting this growth number by the loan balances acquired in the acquisition of First Clermont ($161 million) and by the loans sold with the Roseville branch office ($5 million), loan balances increased by approximately $3 million during the first half of 2005. Loan balances increased by $30 million during the second quarter of 2005 after decreasing by $27 million in the first quarter of 2005. Management expects that loan balances will increase during the third quarter as loan commitments for commercial loans continue to be strong and the demand for consumer loans has improved.

Investment securities decreased by $22.5 million or 1.2% to $1,904.3 million at June 30, 2005 compared to $1,926.8 million at December 31, 2004. Management expects that the average balance of investment securities will decrease during the third quarter of 2005 as management does not anticipate reinvesting the projected investment maturities and repayments of $105 million during the quarter. This cash is expected to be used to decrease borrowings.

Total liabilities increased by $207 million or 4.3% to $5,057 million at June 30, 2005 compared to $4,850 million at December 31, 2004.

Total deposits increased by $171 million or 4.6% to $3,861 million at June 30, 2005 compared to $3,690 million at December 31, 2004. The deposits acquired in the acquisition of First Clermont were $136 million and the deposits sold with the Roseville branch office were $12 million. The net increase in deposits was $47 million for the first half of 2005 after adjusting for the acquisition of First Clermont and the sale of the Roseville branch office.

Total borrowed money increased by $52 million to $1,126 million at June 30, 2005 compared to $1,074 million at December 31, 2004. Management expects that total borrowed money will decrease during the third quarter of 2005 as the repayments and the maturities in the investment portfolio are used to repay borrowings.

The increase or decrease in the investment portfolio and short- and long-term debt is greatly dependent upon the growth in loans and deposits. The primary objective of management is to grow loan and deposit totals. To the extent that management is unable to grow loan totals at a desired growth rate, additional investment securities may be added to the balance sheet. Likewise, short- and long-term debt are utilized to fund the growth in earning assets if the growth in deposits and cash flow from operations is not sufficient to do so.

-30-

Effective liquidity management ensures that the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers, as well as the operating cash needs of the Corporation, are met. Funds are available from a number of sources, including the securities portfolio, the core deposit base, Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, and the capability to securitize or package loans for sale. The Corporation’s loan to asset ratio was 58.2% at June 30, 2005 compared to 57.7% at December 31, 2004 and 55.2% at June 30, 2004. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $193 million at June 30, 2005 compared to $162 million at December 31, 2004 and $165 million at June 30, 2004. The present funding sources provide more than adequate liquidity for the Corporation to meet its cash flow needs.

Capital Resources

Stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2005 was $576 million or 10.23% of total assets compared to $563 million or 10.39% of total assets at December 31, 2004 and $516 million or 10.16% of total assets at June 30, 2004.

Financial institution regulators have established guidelines for minimum capital ratios for banks, thrifts, and bank holding companies. The net unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities is generally not included in computing regulatory capital. The minimum leverage capital ratio (defined as stockholders’ equity less intangible assets divided by tangible assets) is 4% and the well capitalized ratio is greater than or equal to 5%. Park’s leverage ratio was 8.83% at June 30, 2005 and 10.10% at December 31, 2004. The minimum Tier I risk-based capital ratio (defined as leverage capital divided by risk-adjusted assets) is 4% and the well capitalized ratio is greater than or equal to 6%. Park’s Tier I risk-based capital ratio was 14.14% at June 30, 2005 and 15.16% at December 31, 2004. The minimum total risk-based capital ratio (defined as leverage capital plus supplemental capital divided by risk-adjusted assets) is 8% and the well capitalized ratio is greater than or equal to 10%. Park’s total risk-based capital ratio was 15.41% at June 30, 2005 and 16.43% at December 31, 2004.

The financial institution subsidiaries of Park each met the well capitalized capital ratio guidelines at June 30, 2005. The following table indicates the capital ratios for each subsidiary and Park at June 30, 2005:

				Tier I			Total
	Leverage			Risk-Based			Risk-Based
Park National Bank		6.72	%		9.68	%		12.47	%

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

In the ordinary course of operations, Park enters into certain contractual obligations. Such obligations include the funding of operations through debt issuances as well as leases for premises. See Page 35 of Park’s 2004 Annual Report for disclosure concerning contractual obligations and commitments at December 31, 2004. There has not been a material change in contractual obligations or commitments since year-end 2004, except for the completion of the acquisition of First Clermont on January 3, 2005 for a cash purchase price of $52.5 million. The completion of this acquisition reduced Park’s regulatory capital ratios at June 30, 2005 compared to December 31, 2004. The First Clermont Division of The Park National Bank added $208 million of tangible assets at June 30, 2005 and $32 million of intangible assets which are deducted from regulatory capital.

ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

See Footnote 1 for disclosure that Park does not have any off-balance sheet derivative financial instruments. Park is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include loan commitments and standby letters of credit. The loan commitments are generally for variable rates of interest. See page 54 and page 55 of Park’s 2004 Annual Report for additional information on loan commitments. There has not been a material change since year-end 2004.

Management reviews interest rate sensitivity on a quarterly basis by modeling the financial statements under various interest rate scenarios. The primary reason for these efforts is to guard Park from adverse impacts of unforeseen changes in interest rates. Management continues to believe that further changes in interest rates will have a small impact on net income, consistent with the disclosure on page 34 of our 2004 Annual Report, which is incorporated by reference into our 2004 Form 10-K.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

With the participation of the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer (the principal executive officer) and the Chief Financial Officer (the principal financial officer) of Park, Park’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of Park’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, Park’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer and Park’s Chief Financial Officer have concluded that:

-32-

• information required to be disclosed by Park in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports that Park files or submits under the Exchange Act would be accumulated and communicated to Park’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure;

• information required to be disclosed by Park in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the other reports that Park files or submits under the Exchange Act would be recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and

• Park’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to ensure that material information relating to Park and its consolidated subsidiaries is made known to them, particularly during the period in which this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is being prepared.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in Park’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a – 15 (f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during Park’s fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2005, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Park’s internal control over financial reporting.
