These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan'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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Profit Sharing and Savings Plan of Republic National Bank of New York at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplementary information included in Schedules 1 and 2 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The fund information in the statements of net assets available for plan benefits and the statements of changes in net assets available for plan benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the statement of net assets for plan benefits and the statement of changes in net assets for plan benefits of each fund. The supplementary information and fund information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements taken as a whole and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 taken as a whole.

PROFIT SHARING AND SAVINGS PLAN OF REPUBLIC NATIONAL BANK OF NEW YORK Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 1995 and 1994 (1) Description of Plan The following description of the Profit Sharing and Savings Plan of Republic National Bank of New York, as amended and restated as of January 1, 1989 (the "Plan"), is presented for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan Document for more complete information. (a) General The Plan is a defined contribution plan sponsored by Republic National Bank of New York (the "Bank"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Republic New York Corporation (the "Corporation"). The Plan covers substantially all domestic employees of the Bank, the Corporation and their subsidiaries. The Plan, in general, has a profit sharing component (Employer Allocations) and elective deferral contribution components (Savings Plus Contributions and Flex Fund Elective Deferrals and After-Tax Savings). In general, all regular salaried employees are eligible to participate in the Plan. Employees become participants on January 1, coinciding with or following the date of hire; however, a participant may not have profit sharing contributions or Flex Fund Elective Deferral contributions made on his behalf under the Plan prior to the first anniversary of such participant's date of hire. The purpose of the Plan is to recognize employees' contributions to the successful operation of the Bank and to provide employees with a savings method, through payroll deductions, on a pre- and after-tax basis. (b) Benefits The Bank generally issues a profit sharing award on behalf of the participating employees and contributes a portion of such profit sharing award to the Plan. Approximately 50% of this award is referred to as the Employer Allocation. The balance of such award, to the extent contributed to the Plan, represents Flex Fund Elective Deferrals. The amount of the profit sharing award is usually based primarily on the Bank's earnings for the year. In some years, there may be no profit sharing award. Plan forfeitures for the year reduce profit sharing awards otherwise payable by the Bank. An eligible employee's profit sharing award each year is calculated, if a profit sharing award is declared by the Bank for such year, by allocation of the Bank's total profit sharing award times the relationship of the participant's base salary to the base salaries for all eligible participants. Base salary is exclusive of overtime payments, expense allowances, pension and insurance benefits, bonuses and other special payments. 2 PROFIT SHARING AND SAVINGS PLAN OF REPUBLIC NATIONAL BANK OF NEW YORK Notes to Financial Statements (1), Continued (b), continued Employees may elect (i) to receive either all or a portion of 50% of their profit sharing award in cash and/or spend it on benefits under the Flex Fund, an Internal Revenue Code Section 125 cafeteria plan sponsored by the Bank, with the remainder placed in the Plan, for which the Bank serves as Trustee, or (ii) to have 100% of their allocation placed in the Plan. The portion of the profit sharing award that is paid into the Plan is comprised of Employer Allocations and Flex Fund Elective Deferrals. Participants' profit sharing contributions to the Plan representing Flex Fund Elective Deferrals, and the earnings thereon, are always 100% vested and nonforfeitable. The balance (i.e., 50%) of the profit sharing award with respect to which the participant makes no election and which is automatically contributed to the Plan on the participant's behalf (i.e., the Employer Allocation), becomes fully vested and nonforfeitable when the participant completes three years of service. (c) Contributions The Bank may contribute to the Plan each year such amount, if any, as shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Bank in its discretion, but not exceeding the maximum amount which would be deductible by the Bank for such year for income tax purposes. Employer contributions, which are primarily based on the Bank's earnings for the year, are contributed and included in the Plan when the financial statements of the Bank are approved by its Board of Directors. Total contributions to the Plan on behalf of any participant for any Plan year shall not exceed the lesser of (a) $30,000, or (b) 25% of the participant's total earnings for such Plan year. Savings Plus Contributions, Flex Fund Elective Deferrals and After-Tax Savings contributions on behalf of certain highly compensated employees may be limited as a result of certain nondiscrimination rules under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Savings Plus Contributions are permitted from 1% to 10% of the employee's base salary (as of the previous September 1st) in multiples of 1%. After-Tax Savings contributions are also permitted from 1% to 10% of the employee's base salary (as of the previous September 1st) in multiples of 1%. Employees may not contribute in aggregate more than 15% of the member's annual compensation. By law, the total Savings Plus Contributions plus Flex Fund Elective Deferrals for 1995 is limited to $9,240 per employee. Savings Plus Contributions, Flex Fund Elective Deferrals and associated earnings are not subject to current Federal income taxes and may not be subject to state and local income taxes. All such contributions are made on a pre-tax basis, thereby reducing taxable income. Income taxes on such amounts are deferred until the participant receives distributions from the Plan. Earnings on any After-Tax Savings contributions are also tax deferred. 3 PROFIT SHARING AND SAVINGS PLAN OF REPUBLIC NATIONAL BANK OF NEW YORK Notes to Financial Statements (1), Continued (c), continued The participants' Savings Plus Contributions (made via payroll deductions), and the interest earned thereon, are invested by the Bank in short-term money market investments from the payroll deductions date to the date such contributions are invested in the Plan's investment funds. Such interest earned is treated as an additional contribution to the investment funds. A participant may, with the consent of the Plan Administrator, deposit a payout from a former employer's profit sharing plan into the Plan. A participant is not required to complete one year of service to make such rollover contributions. (d) Distributions Participants or their beneficiaries are entitled to receive benefit payments representing their vested interest in the Plan as follows: (1) participants may, in the case of certain hardships set forth in the Plan, apply for a distribution of all, or a portion of, their Savings Plus Contributions, Flex Fund Elective Deferrals and the vested portion of the participant's Employer Allocation Account and After-Tax Savings Contributions; (2) participants may withdraw all or a portion of their vested interest under the Plan upon their attainment of age 59-1/2; (3) withdrawals of After-Tax Savings Contributions are permitted once per quarter and will be paid as soon as practicable following the end of the quarter in which the request was made; (4) in general, upon termination of employment, participants or their beneficiaries shall receive payment of their vested interest in the Plan as a lump-sum distribution (payable as soon as practicable following the valuation date immediately following the participant's termination of employment, but in no event later than 60 days after the close of the plan year in which the participant's termination of employment occurred), in two installments, or in five equal annual installments; and (5) participants with a vested interest in the RNYC Common Stock Fund may elect, upon termination, to receive all or a portion of their distribution as cash and/or shares. A participant may not have any portion of his Savings Plus account balance or his Flex Fund Elective Deferral account balance distributed earlier than the participant's (a) retirement, (b) death, (c) disability, (d) termination of employment, (e) attainment of age 59-1/2, or (f) hardship. A distribution on account of hardship shall not exceed the amount required to meet the immediate financial need created by the hardship. 4 PROFIT SHARING AND SAVINGS PLAN OF REPUBLIC NATIONAL BANK OF NEW YORK Notes to Financial Statements (1), Continued (e) Investment Elections As of March 31, 1995 the Common Stock Investment Fund, Fixed Income Investment Fund, Aggressive Investment Fund and Managed Total Return Investment Fund options were discontinued. These funds were replaced by the U.S. Fixed Income Long-Term Investment Fund, U.S. Fixed Income Short to Intermediate Investment Fund, International Equity Fund, U.S. Equity Large-Cap Growth Fund, U.S. Equity Large-Cap Value Fund, and the U.S. Equity Small-Cap Fund. Under the terms of the Plan, participants may designate, in multiples of 10%, the proportions in which their allocations and contributions placed in the Plan are to be invested in any of the eight current investment funds under the Plan (collectively known as the "funds") which are: Fixed Income Long-Term Investment Fund, U.S. Fixed Income Short to Intermediate-Term Fund, International Equity Fund, Fixed Income Short-Term Investment Fund, RNYC Common Stock Fund, U.S. Equity Large-Cap Growth Fund, U.S. Equity Large-Cap Value Fund, and U.S. Equity Small-Cap Fund. Participants failing to make an election decision will have their allocations invested in the Fixed Income Short-Term Investment Fund. A participant may elect to change his investment designation up to four times a year based on the schedule specified in the Plan. The Bank, as Trustee for the funds, has discretionary authority concerning purchases and sales of investments in each of its eight investment funds, within the guidelines described in the Plan Document as follows: Fixed Income Long-Term Investment Fund - to be invested primarily in U.S. Government securities, corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities and / or other fixed income securities with an average weighted maturity expected to be greater than five years.

Presently, the Plan assets are invested in the Pooled Employee Benefit Trust of Republic National Bank of New York, except the Plan assets of the RNYC Common Stock Fund which are invested in RNYC common stock. Each investment fund utilizes the Dreyfus Cash Management account or the Republic U.S. Government money market account, sweep accounts, to invest excess cash. Two of the investment options, the Savings Fund and RNYC Common Stock, remained available after April 1, 1995 although the Savings Fund has been renamed the Fixed Income Short -Term Investment Fund. Each participant in the Plan was required to complete investment election forms to allocate their existing balances as of March 31, 1995 among the eight investment plan options. (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Investments, Valuations and Income Recognition Dreyfus Cash Management accounts are investments in money market funds for purposes of liquidity and are stated at cost which approximates fair value. Republic U.S. Government Money Market accounts are investments in money market funds for purposes of liquidity and are stated at cost which approximates fair value. The investments in the Pooled Employee Benefit Trust of Republic National Bank of New York ("PEBT") are stated at fair value based upon the unit valuations as reported in the PEBT financial statements as of December 31, 1995 and 1994. Such unit valuations are based predominantly on market quotations for the underlying investments obtained from national securities exchanges. 6 PROFIT SHARING AND SAVINGS PLAN OF REPUBLIC NATIONAL BANK OF NEW YORK Notes to Financial Statements (2), Continued (a), continued Republic New York Corporation's common stock is stated at market value based upon the closing market price quoted on the New York Stock Exchange. Interest income in the Dreyfus Cash Management and Republic U.S. Government Money Market accounts is recorded on an accrual basis. Net investment income from the PEBT funds includes current earnings from the PEBT's underlying investments, net gains and losses from the sale of investments by the PEBT's, and the net change in the unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the PEBT's underlying investments and is recorded as net appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of investments in the Plan's financial statements. Dividend income in the RNYC Common Stock Fund is recorded on an accrual basis at the date of record of the dividends. Gains or losses on sales of investments are accounted for on an average cost basis. These are recorded based upon trade date. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Sponsor to make estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results may differ from those estimates. (b) Contributions, Distributions and Interfund Transfers All contributions, distributions and interfund transfers are effected at the Plan's quarterly valuation dates. The Bank's and employees' contributions are made in accordance with note 1(c). The contributions receivable represent employee payroll deductions for the fourth quarter of 1995, which were contributed to the Plan in January 1996. A participant's distributions are paid out by the Plan when the participant is entitled to them as discussed in note 1(d). Participant withdrawal requested but not yet paid out of the Plan's assets amounted to $2,256,925 and $1,903,347 at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Interfund transfers are elected by the participants as discussed in note 1(e) and the change in the investment funds is recognized at the subsequent Plan quarterly valuation date. 7 PROFIT SHARING AND SAVINGS PLAN OF REPUBLIC NATIONAL BANK OF NEW YORK Notes to Financial Statements (c) Related Party Transactions The Bank is trustee for the PEBT's in which certain of the Plan assets are invested. The Bank does not receive any fees for its role as trustee. Administrative expenses are borne by the Plan, unless the Bank, at its option, chooses to pay for such expenses. During 1995 and 1994, the Bank has chosen to pay all administrative expenses of the Plan. (3) Plan Valuations Plan valuations are performed quarterly. The Plan maintains records for each participant in dollar amounts, except in the case of the RNYC Common Stock Fund which is maintained in shares of common stock. Dividends received on the RNYC Common Stock Fund are credited to each participant based upon the number of shares owned in the fund. For all other funds, at the quarterly valuations, each individual is credited with his pro rata share of income in an investment fund based on his opening balance compared to the total of all individuals' opening balances in that fund. (4) Investments The following table presents the fair values of investments that represent 5 percent or more of the Plan's net assets at the end of the Plan year:

The net change in fair value of the Plan's investments (including investments bought, sold, and held during the year) is separately disclosed in the statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits. The Plan calculates realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as the difference between market value and cost. The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") Form 5500 calculates realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as the difference between current market value and market value at the prior year end. 9 PROFIT SHARING AND SAVINGS PLAN OF REPUBLIC NATIONAL BANK OF NEW YORK Notes to Financial Statements (5) Plan Termination While it has not expressed any intention to do so, the Bank may terminate the Plan at any time. In the event of the termination of the Plan, or if there is a complete discontinuance of contributions, the account of each participant shall become nonforfeitable and distributable in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. No termination of the Plan shall permit any part of the funds to be used for or diverted to purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of participants, former participants or beneficiaries. (6) Federal Income Taxes The Plan is approved as qualified under section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and is exempt from Federal income taxes under Section 501(a) of such Code, pursuant to an Internal Revenue Service determination letter dated September 8, 1995. Accordingly, the Plan has been amended to conform with the changes in plan qualification requirements enacted by the Tax Reform Act of 1986 and all other tax law changes enacted through the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation of 1993. The administrators of the Plan, in conjunction with their tax counsel, believe the Plan operates in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code. (7) The Manhattan Savings Bank Employee Thrift Incentive Plan Termination Effective January 1, 1991, the Board of Trustees of The Manhattan Savings Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation, agreed to terminate The Manhattan Savings Bank Employee Thrift Incentive Plan. Such termination was subject to the approval of certain regulatory filings by the Internal Revenue Service. Effective January 1, 1991, all participants of The Manhattan Savings Bank Employee Thrift Incentive Plan became fully vested in their respective participant accounts including employer's contributions and all regular salaried employees of The Manhattan Savings Bank were eligible to participate in the Plan. Upon receipt of the regulatory approval of the Application of Determination Upon Termination, The Manhattan Savings Bank employees were given the option to liquidate funds in their participant account in total or liquidate the after-tax portion and roll over the deferred-tax portion into the Profit Sharing and Savings Plan of Republic National Bank of New York. Such regulatory approvals were received in 1994 and approximately $389,000 of the assets of The Manhattan Savings Bank Employee Thrift Incentive Plan were transferred to the Plan and recorded as employee contributions. (8) Subsequent Event Effective March 1, 1996 the 401 K Plan of Crossland Savings Bank was merged into the Plan. It is expected that the funds of Crossland's 401 K Plan will be transferred into the Plan before December 31, 1996. The Corporation completed the purchase of Crosslands Savings Bank on February 29, 1996.
