THE COMPANY Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. ("RBPA" or the "Registrant") is a Pennsylvania business corporation and a bank holding company registered under the federal Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "Holding Company Act"), and is supervised by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve Board). Its legal headquarters is located at 732 Montgomery Avenue, Narberth, PA. On June 29, 1995, pursuant to the plan of reorganization approved by the shareholders of Royal Bank of Pennsylvania (the "Bank"), all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Bank were acquired by the RBPA and were exchanged on a one-for-one basis for common stock of RBPA. The principal activities of RBPA are owning and supervising the Bank, which engages in a general banking business in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. RBPA also has a wholly owned nonbank subsidiary, Royal Investments of Delaware, Inc., which is engaged in investment activities. At December 31, 1998, RBPA had consolidated total assets of approximately $427.6 million, total deposits of approximately $290.4 million and stockholders' equity of approximately $94.1 million. From time to time, RBPA may include forward-looking statements relating to such matters as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, technological developments, new products, research and development activities and similar matters in this and other filings with the Securities Exchange Commission. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor for forward-looking statements. When we use words such as "believes", or "expects," "anticipates" or similar expressions, we are making forward-looking statements. In order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor, RBPA notes that a variety of factors could cause RBPA's actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in RBPA's forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance development and results of RBPA's business include the following: general economic conditions, including their impact on capital expenditures; business conditions in the banking industry; the regulatory environment; rapidly changing technology and evolving banking industry standards; competitive factors, including increased competition with community, regional and national financial institutions; new service and product offerings by competitors and price pressures and similar items. THE BANK The Bank was incorporated in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania on July 30, 1963, and was chartered by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Banking and commenced operation as a Pennsylvania state-chartered bank on October 22, 1963. The Bank is the successor of the Bank of King of Prussia, the principal ownership of which was acquired by Daniel M. Tabas in 1980. Royal Bank of Pennsylvania is an insured bank under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"). The Bank derives its income principally from interest charged on loans and interest on investment securities and fees received in connection with the origination of loans and other services. The Bank's principal expenses are interest expense on deposits and operating expenses. Funds for activities are provided principally by operating revenues, deposit growth and the repayment of outstanding loans. Service Area. The Bank's primary service area includes Montgomery, Chester, Bucks, Delaware, Berks and Philadelphia counties, southern New Jersey and Delaware in the vicinity of Wilmington. This area includes residential areas and industrial and commercial businesses of the type usually found within a major metropolitan area. The Bank serves this area from thirteen offices located throughout Montgomery, Philadelphia and Berks counties. The Bank also considers the states of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New 2 3 York and Delaware to constitute its service area for certain services. On occasion, the Bank will do business with clients located outside of its service area. The Bank's legal headquarters are located at 732 Montgomery Avenue, Narberth, PA. The Bank conducts business operations as a commercial bank offering checking accounts, savings and time deposits, and loans, including residential mortgages, home equity and SBA loans. The Bank also offers safe deposit boxes, collections, and other customary bank services (excluding trust) to its customers. Drive-up, ATM, and night depository facilities are available. Services may be added or deleted from time to time. The services offered and the business of the Bank are not subject to significant seasonal fluctuations. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve Fedline Wire Transfer System. Competition. The Bank is subject to intense competition from commercial banks, thrifts and other financial institutions. The Bank actively competes with such banks and institutions for local deposits and local retail and commercial accounts, and is also subject to competition from banks from areas outside its service area for certain segments of its business. For a number of years, competition has been increasing in the Bank's basic banking business because of the growing number of financial service entities that have entered our local market. This trend was accelerated by the passage of federal laws in the early 1980's, which sharply expanded the powers of thrifts and credit unions, giving them most of the powers that were formerly reserved for commercial banks. While attempting to equalize the competition among the depository institutions, these statutes have little effect on less regulated entities such as money market mutual funds and investment banking firms. Many of these competitors have substantially greater financial resources and more extensive branch systems. To be successful, smaller banks must find a competitive edge. The Bank prides itself on giving its customers personalized service. The Bank has continued at modest levels its research activities relating to the development of new services and the improvement of existing bank services. Marketing activities have continued that have allowed the Bank to remain competitive. These activities include the review of existing services and the solicitation of new users of banking services. The Bank is not dependent upon a single customer or a small number of customers, the loss of which should have a material adverse effect on the Bank or RBPA. Employees. RBPA employed approximately 133 persons on a full-time equivalent basis as of December 31, 1998. Deposits. At December 31, 1998, total deposits of the Bank were distributed among demand deposits (14%), money market deposit accounts, savings and Super Now (33%) and time deposits (53%). At year end 1998, deposits increased $25.0 million from year end 1997, or 9.4%, primarily due to an increase in certificate of deposits and to a lesser extent, NOW and money market deposits. We note that the Bank or any bank could be financially stressed in the event a material number of the depositors elected to withdraw deposits from the institution within a short period of time. Conceivably, this could occur even though the FDIC insures each depositor for up to $100,000. Lending. At December 31, 1998, the Bank had a total loan portfolio of $304.5 million, representing 71% of total assets. The loan portfolio is categorized into commercial, commercial mortgages, residential mortgages (including home equity lines of credit), construction, and installment loans. Current market and regulatory trends in banking are changing the basic nature of the banking industry. The Bank intends to keep pace with the banking industry by being competitive with respect to interest rates and new types or classes of deposits insofar as it is practical to do so consistent with the Bank's size, objective of profit maintenance and stable capital structure. 3 4 NON-BANK SUBSIDIARY On June 30, 1995, RBPA established a special purpose Delaware investment company, Royal Investments of Delaware, Inc., ("RID") as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Its legal headquarters is at 103 Springer Building, 3411 Silverside Road, Wilmington, DE. RID buys, holds and sells investment securities. At December 31, 1998, total assets of RID were $28.7 million, of which $22.6 million was held in cash and cash equivalents. Investment securities were $6.1 million at December 31, 1998. SUPERVISION AND REGULATION Holding Company. RBPA, as a Pennsylvania business corporation, is subject to the jurisdiction of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and of state securities commissions for matters relating to the offering and sale of its securities. Accordingly, if RBPA wishes to issue additional shares of its Common Stock, in order, for example, to raise capital or to grant stock options, RBPA will have to comply with the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 as amended, or find an applicable exemption from registration. RBPA is subject to the provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHC Act"), and to supervision by the Federal Reserve Board. The BHC Act requires RBPA to secure the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board before it owns or controls, directly or indirectly, more than 5% of the voting shares of any corporation, including another bank. In addition, the BHC Act prohibits RBPA from acquiring more than 5% of the voting shares of, or interest in, or all or substantially all of the assets of, any bank located outside Pennsylvania, unless such an acquisition is specifically authorized by laws of the state in which such bank is located. A bank holding company also is prohibited from engaging in or acquiring direct or indirect control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any such company engaged in non-banking activities unless the Federal Reserve Board, by order or regulation, has found such activities to be closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. In making this determination, the Federal Reserve Board considers whether the performance of these activities by a bank holding company would offer benefits to the public that outweigh possible adverse effects. As a bank holding company, RBPA is required to file an annual report with the Federal Reserve Board and any additional information that the Federal Reserve Board may require pursuant to the BHC Act. The Federal Reserve Board may also make examinations of the holding company and any or all of subsidiaries. Further, under Section 106 of the 1970 amendments to the BHC Act and the Federal Reserve Board's regulation, a bank holding company and its subsidiaries are prohibited from engaging in certain tying arrangements in connection with any extension of credit or provision of credit of any property or services. The so called "anti-tying" provisions state generally that a bank may not extend credit, lease, sell property or furnish any service to a customer on the condition that the customer obtain additional credit or service from the bank, its bank holding company or any other subsidiary of its bank holding company, or on the condition that the customer not obtain other credit or services from a competitor of the bank, its bank holding company or any subsidiary of its bank holding company. Subsidiary banks of a bank holding company are subject to certain restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act and by state banking laws on any extensions of credit to the bank holding company or any of its subsidiaries, on investments in the stock or other securities of the bank holding company and on taking of such stock or securities as collateral for loans to any borrower. 4 5 Under Pennsylvania law, RBPA is permitted to control an unlimited number of banks. However, RBPA would be required under the BHC Act to obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board before acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of any bank, or acquiring ownership or control of any voting shares of any other than the Bank, if, after such acquisition, would control more than 5% of the voting shares of such bank. The Bank. The deposits of Royal Bank of Pennsylvania are insured by the FDIC. The Bank is subject to supervision, regulation and examination by the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and by the FDIC. In addition, the Bank is subject to a variety of local, state and federal laws that affect its operation. Under the Pennsylvania Banking Code of 1965, as amended, the ("Code"), the Registrant has been permitted since March 4, 1990 to control an unlimited number of banks. However, the Registrant would be required under the Bank Holding Company Act to obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board before it could acquire all or substantially all of the assets of any bank, or acquiring ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank other than the Bank, if, after such acquisition, the registrant would own or control more than 5 percent of the voting shares of such bank. The Bank Holding Company Act has been amended by the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Act of 1994 which authorizes bank holding companies subject to certain limitations and restrictions to acquire banks located in any state. In 1995, the Code was amended to harmonize Pennsylvania law with the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 to enable Pennsylvania institutions to participate fully in interstate banking and to remove obstacles to the choice by banks from other states engaged in interstate banking to select Pennsylvania as a head office location. Some of the more salient features of the amendment are described below. A bank holding company located in Pennsylvania, another state, the District of Columbia or a territory or possession of the United States may control one or more banks, bank and trust companies, national banks, interstate banks and, with the prior written approval of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking, may acquire control of a bank and trust company or a national bank located in Pennsylvania. A Pennsylvania-chartered institution may maintain branches in any other state, the District of Columbia, or a territory or possession of the United States upon the written approval of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking. Finally, a banking institution existing under the laws of another jurisdiction may establish a branch in Pennsylvania if the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is located permit a Pennsylvania-chartered institution or a national bank located in Pennsylvania to establish and maintain a branch in such jurisdiction on substantially the same terms and conditions. In 1995, the Pennsylvania General Assembly enacted the Economic Development Agency, Fiduciary and Lender Environmental Liability Protection Act which, among other things, provides protection to lenders from environmental liability and remediation costs under the environmental laws for releases and contamination caused by others. A lender who engages in activities involved in the routine practices of commercial lending, including, but not limited to, the providing of financial services, holding of security interests, workout practices, foreclosure or the recovery of funds from the sale of property shall not be liable under the environmental acts or common law equivalents to the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental resources or to any other person by virtue of the fact that the lender engages in such commercial lending practices. A lender, however, will be liable if it, its employees or agents, directly cause an immediate release or directly exacerbate a release of regulated substances on or from the property, or knowingly and willfully compelled the borrower to commit an action which caused such release or violation of an environmental act. The Economic Development Agency, Fiduciary and Lender Environmental 5 6 Liability Protection Act, however, does not limit federal liability which still exists under certain circumstances. A subsidiary bank of a holding company is subject to certain restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, on any extensions of credit to the bank holding company or its subsidiaries, on investments in the stock or other securities of the bank holding company or its subsidiaries, and on taking such stock or securities as collateral for loans. The Federal Reserve Act, as amended, and Federal Reserve Board regulations also place certain limitations and reporting requirements on extensions of credit by a bank to principal shareholders of its parent holding company, among others, and to related interests of such principal shareholders. In addition, such legislation and regulations may affect the terms upon which any person who becomes a principal shareholder of a holding company may obtain credit from banks with which the subsidiary bank maintains a correspondent relationship. Federal law also prohibits the acquisition of control of a bank holding company without prior notice to certain federal bank regulators. Control is defined for this purpose as the power, directly or indirectly, to direct the management or policies of the bank or bank holding company or to vote 25% or more of any class of voting securities of the bank holding company. From time to time, various types of federal and state legislation have been proposed that could result in additional regulation of, and restrictions on, the business of the Bank. It cannot be predicted whether any such legislation will be adopted or how such legislation would affect the business of the Bank. As a consequence of the extensive regulation of commercial banking activities in the United States, the Bank's business is particularly susceptible to being affected by federal legislation and regulations that may increase the costs of doing business. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("FDIC Act"), the FDIC possesses the power to prohibit institutions regulated by it (such as the Bank) from engaging in any activity that would be an unsafe and unsound banking practice or in violation of applicable law. Moreover, the FDIC Act: (i) empowers the FDIC to issue cease-and-desist or civil money penalty orders against the Bank or its executive officers, directors and/or principal shareholders based on violations of law or unsafe and unsound banking practices; (ii) authorizes the FDIC to remove executive officers who have participated in such violations or unsound practices; (iii) restricts lending by the Bank to its executive officers, directors, principal shareholders or related interests thereof; (iv) restricts management personnel of a bank from serving as directors or in other management positions with certain depository institutions whose assets exceed a specified amount or which have an office within a specified geographic area. Additionally, the FDIC Act provides that no person may acquire control of the Bank unless the FDIC has been given 60-days prior written notice and within that time has not disapproved the acquisition or extended the period for disapproval. In April 1995, regulators revised the Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") with an emphasis on performance over process and documentation. Under the revised rules, the five-point rating scale is still utilized by examiners to assign a numerical score for a bank's performance in each of three areas: lending, service and investment. Under the CRA, the FDIC is required to: (i) assess the records of all financial institutions regulated by it to determine if these institutions are meeting the credit needs of the community (including low-and moderate-income neighborhoods) which they serve, and (ii) take this record into account in its evaluation of any application made by any such institutions for, among other things, approval of a branch or other deposit facility, office relocation, a merger or an acquisition of bank shares. The CRA also requires the federal banking agencies to make public disclosures of their evaluation of each bank's record of meeting the credit needs of its entire community, including low-and moderate-income neighborhoods. This evaluation will include a descriptive rate ("outstanding," "satisfactory," "needs to improve" or "substantial noncompliance") 6 7 and a statement describing the basis for the rating. After its most recent examination of the Bank under CRA, the FDIC gave the Bank a CRA rating of satisfactory. Under the Bank Secrecy Act ("BSA"), banks and other financial institutions are required to report to the Internal Revenue Service currency transactions of more than $10,000 or multiple transactions in any one day of which the Bank is aware that exceed $10,000 in the aggregate or other lesser amounts. Civil and criminal penalties are provided under the BSA for failure to file a required report, for failure to supply information required by the BSA or for filing a false or fraudulent report. RIEGLE-NEAL INTERSTATE BANKING AND BRANCHING EFFICIENCY ACT OF 1994. The Bank believes that further merger activity within Pennsylvania is likely to occur in the future, resulting in increased concentration levels in banking markets within Pennsylvania and other significant changes in the competitive environment. The Riegle-Neal allows adequately capitalized and managed bank holding companies to acquire banks in any state starting one year after enactment (September 29, 1995). Another provision of the Riegle-Neal Act allows interstate merger transactions beginning June 1, 1997. States are permitted, however, to pass legislation providing for either earlier approval of mergers with out-of-state banks, or "opting-out" of interstate mergers entirely. Through interstate merger transactions, banks will be able to acquire branches of out-of-state banks by converting their offices into branches of the resulting bank. The Riegle-Neal Act provides that it will be the exclusive means for bank holding companies to obtain interstate branches. Under the Riegle-Neal Act, banks may establish and operate a "de novo branch" in any State that "opts-in" to de novo branching. Foreign banks are allowed to operate branches, either de novo or by merger. These branches can operate to the same extent that the establishment and operation of such branches would be permitted if the foreign bank were a national bank or state bank. All these changes are expected to intensify competition in local, regional and national banking markets. The Pennsylvania Banking Code has been amended to enable Pennsylvania institutions to participate fully in interstate banking (see discussion above). Management cannot anticipate what changes Congress may enact, or, if enacted, their impact on RBPA's financial position and reported results of operation. As a consequence of the extensive regulation of commercial banking activities in the United States, RBPA's business is particularly susceptible to being affected by federal and state legislation and regulations that may increase the costs of doing business. FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION IMPROVEMENT ACT OF 1991 GENERAL. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDIC Improvement Act") includes several provisions that have a direct impact on the Bank. The most significant of these provisions are discussed below. The FDIC is required to conduct periodic full-scope, on-site examinations of the Bank. In order to minimize losses to the deposit insurance funds, the FDIC Improvement Act establishes a format to more monitor FDIC-insured institutions and to enable prompt corrective action by the appropriate federal supervisory agency if an institution begins to experience any difficulty. The FDIC Improvement Act establishes five "capital" categories. They are: (1) well capitalized, (2) adequately capitalized, (3) undercapitalized, (4) significantly undercapitalized, and (5) critically undercapitalized. The overall goal of these new capital measures is to impose more scrutiny and operational restrictions on banks as they descend the capital categories from well capitalized to critically undercapitalized. Under Current regulations, a "well-capitalized" institution would be one that has at least a 10% total risk-based capital ratio, a 6% Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, a 5% Tier 1 Leverage Ratio, and is not subject 7 8 to any written order or final directive by the FDIC to meet and maintain a specific capital level. The Bank is presently categorized as a "well-capitalized" institution. An "adequately capitalized" institution would be one that meets the required minimum capital levels, but does not meet the definition of a "well-capitalized" institution. The existing capital rules generally require banks to maintain a Tier 1 Leverage Ratio of at least 4% and an 8% total risk-based capital ratio. Since the risk-based capital requirement to be in the form of Tier 1 capital, this also will mean that a bank would need to maintain at least 4% Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio. An institution must meet each of the required minimum capital levels in order to be deemed "adequately capitalized." An "undercapitalized" institution is one that fails to meet one or more of the required minimum capital levels for an "adequately capitalized" institution. Under the FDIC Improvement Act, an "undercapitalized" institution must file a capital restoration plan and is automatically subject to restrictions on dividends, management fees and asset growth. In addition, the institution is prohibited from making acquisitions, opening new branches or engaging in new lines of business without the prior approval of its primary federal regulator. A number of other restrictions may be imposed. A "critically undercapitalized" institution is one that has a tangible equity (Tier 1 capital) ratio of 2% or less. In addition to the same restrictions and prohibitions that apply to "undercapitalized" and "significantly undercapitalized" institutions, any institution that becomes "critically undercapitalized" is prohibited from taking the following actions without the prior written approval of its primary federal supervisory agency: engaging in any material transactions other than in the usual course of business; extending credit for highly leveraged transactions; amending its charter or bylaws; making any material changes in accounting methods; engaging in certain transactions with affiliates; paying excessive compensation or bonuses; and paying interest on liabilities exceeding the prevailing rates in the institution's market area. In addition, a "critically undercapitalized" institution is prohibited from paying interest or principal on its subordinated debt and is subject to being placed in conservatorship or receivership if its tangible equity capital level is not increased within certain mandated time frames. REAL ESTATE LENDING GUIDELINES. Pursuant to the FDIC Improvement Act, the FDIC has issued real estate lending guidelines that establish loan-to-value ("LTV") ratios for different types of real estate loans. A LTV ratio is generally defined as the total loan amount divided by the appraised value of the property at the time the loan is originated. If a bank does not hold a first lien position, the total loan amount would be combined with the amount of all senior liens when calculating the ratio. In addition to establishing the LTV ratios, the FDIC's real estate guidelines require all real estate loans to be based upon proper loan documentation and a recent independent appraisal of the property. The FDIC's guidelines establish the following limits for LTV ratios:
LTV Loan Category Limit ------------- ----- Raw Land 65% Land Development Construction: Commercial, Multifamily (includes condos and co-ops), and other Nonresidential 80% Improved Property 85% Owner occupied 1-4 Family and Home Equity (without credit enhancements) 90%
8 9 The guidelines provide exceptions to the LTV ratios for government-backed loans; loans facilitating the sale of real estate acquired by the lending institution in the normal course of business; loans where the Bank's decision to lend is not based on the offer of real estate as collateral and such collateral is taken only out of an abundance of caution; and loans renewed, refinanced, or restructured by the original lender to the same borrower, without the advancement of new money. The regulation also allows institutions to make a limited amount of real estate loans that do not conform with the proposed LTV ratios. Under this exception, the Bank would be allowed to make real estate loans that do not conform with the LTV ratio limits, up to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Bank's total capital. TRUTH IN SAVINGS ACT. The FDIC Improvement Act also contains the Truth in Savings Act. The purpose of this Act is to require the clear and uniform disclosure of the rates of interest that are payable on deposit accounts by the Bank and the fees that are assessable against deposit accounts, so that consumers can make a meaningful comparison between the competing claims of banks with regard to deposit accounts and products. This Act requires the Bank to include, in a clear and conspicuous manner, the following information with each periodic statement of a deposit account: (1) the annual percentage yield earned, (2) the amount of interest earned, (3) the amount of any fee and charges imposed and (4) the number of days in the reporting period. This Act allows for civil lawsuits to be initiated by customers if the Bank violates any provision or regulation under this Act. MONETARY POLICY The earnings of the Bank are affected by the policies of regulatory authorities including the Federal Reserve Board. An important function of the Federal Reserve System is to influence the money supply and interest rates. Among the instruments used to implement those objectives are open market operations in United States government securities, changes in reserve requirements against member bank deposits and limitations on interest rates that member banks may pay on time and savings deposits. These instruments are used in varying combinations to influence overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and deposits, and their use may also affect rates charged on loans or paid for deposits. The policies and regulations of the Federal Reserve Board have had and will probably continue to have a significant effect on its reserve requirements, deposits, loans and investment growth, as well as the rate of interest earned and paid, and are expected to affect the Bank's operations in the future. The effect of such policies and regulations upon the future business and earnings of the Bank cannot be predicted. EFFECTS OF INFLATION Inflation has some impact on RBPA's operating costs. Unlike many industrial companies, however, substantially all of RBPA's assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on RBPA's performance than the general level of inflation. Over short periods of time, interest rates may not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as prices of goods and services. 9 10 ITEM 2.

Future dividends must necessarily depend upon net income, capital requirements, appropriate legal restrictions and other factors relevant at the time the Board of Directors of the Registrant considers dividend policy. Cash dividends available for dividend distributions to the shareholders of the Registrant must initially come from dividends paid by the Bank to the Registrant. Therefore, the restrictions on the Bank's dividend payments are directly applicable to the Registrant. Under the Pennsylvania Banking Code of 1965, as amended, a restriction is placed on the availability of capital surplus for payment of dividends by the Bank. Under the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law of 1988, as amended, the Registrant may pay dividends only if after payment the Registrant would be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business and the total assets are greater than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed if the Registrant were to be dissolved at the time of the dividend to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of shareholders whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the dividend.

The Bank utilizes the reserve method of accounting for possible loan losses. Under this method, provisions for possible loan losses are charged to operation and recognized loan losses are charged and loan recoveries are credited to the allowance. The allowance for possible loan loss represents the amount set aside to protect against the risk inherent in the Bank's portfolio. Management's periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance takes into consideration the Bank's past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio, adverse situations which may affect the borrower's ability to repay, overall portfolio quality, and current economic conditions. Provisions for possible loan losses are charged to earnings to bring the allowance to a level considered by management to be appropriate in light of the foregoing considerations. However, since loan loss reserve adequacy is subjective, the loan loss reserve may be excessively funded or need additional funds from time to time. A loan review is performed quarterly by the Loan Review officer to determine the adequacy of the reserves. 16 17 LOANS AND LEASE FINANCING RECEIVABLES The following table summarizes the loan portfolio by loan category and amount that corresponds to the appropriate regulatory definitions.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSIONS AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of RBPA (see Item 8) and related notes included herein. FINANCIAL CONDITION Total assets increased $11.0 million, or 3%, to $427.6 million at December 31, 1998 from $416.6 million at year end 1997, primarily due to growth experienced in loans and investment securities of $9.9 million and $13.4 million, respectively, partially offset by a $11.3 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents. Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash on hand, and cash in interest bearing and non interest bearing accounts in banks, in addition to federal funds sold. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $11.3 million, or 37%, to $19.1 million at December 31, 1998, primarily due to growth in loans and investment securities during 1998. The average balance of cash and cash equivalents was $34.4 million for 1998 versus $25.8 million for 1997. Investment Securities Held to Maturity. Held to maturity investment securities ("HTM") represents approximately 12% of average earning assets during 1998 and are comprised of primarily corporate debt securities of investment grade quality at the time of purchase. HTM investment securities declined $2.5 million, or 4%, from $64.4 million at December 31, 1997 to $61.9 million at December 31, 1998, primarily due to scheduled maturities exceeding purchases during 1998. Investment Securities Available for Sale. Available for sale securities ("AFS") represent 7% of average earning assets during 1998 and are primarily comprised of capital trust security issues of regional banks. AFS investment securities were $37 million at December 31, 1998, an increase of $15.9 million from $21 million at December 31, 1997. This increase is primarily due to the purchase of capital trust securities during 1998. Loans. RBPA's primary earning assets are loans, representing approximately 74% of average earning assets during 1998. The loan portfolio has historically been comprised primarily of business demand loans and commercial mortgages in roughly equal amounts, and to a significantly lesser extent one to four family residential and home equity loans. This composition of loans did not change during 1998. During 1998, total loans increased 5% from $290.9 million at December 31, 1997 to $304.5 million at December 31,1998, primarily due to internally generated loan growth. Deposits. RBPA's primary source of funding, deposits, increased $25 million, or 9%, from $265.4 million at December 31, 1997 to $290.4 million at December 31, 1998. This increase in deposits is primarily due to increases in certificates of deposits, NOW and money market, and savings deposits of $14.3 million, $5.3 million and $2.0 million, respectively, in addition to a $3.4 million increase in non-interest bearing deposits. The $14.3 million increase in certificates of deposits is primarily attributable to $20 million increase in brokered deposits during 1998. 20 21 Borrowings. Borrowings are comprised of long term borrowings (advances, mortgage) and short term borrowings (overnight borrowings). Long term borrowings decreased $.7 million to $30.9 million at December 31, 1998 primarily due to a scheduled maturity of a Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advance in December, 1998 and scheduled amortization of the mortgage payable. The average balance of long term borrowings and mortgages during 1998 was $31.6 million versus $3.1 million for 1997. Short-term borrowings decreased $15 million to $-0- at December 31, 1998 from $15 million at December 31, 1997. The average balance of short-term borrowings during 1998 and 1997 was $.1 million. Stockholders' Equity. Stockholders' equity increased $4.6 million or 5% in 1998 to $94.1 million primarily due to net income of $10.8 million partially offset by $7.2 million in cash dividends paid in 1998. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS General. RBPA's results of operations depend primarily on net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on interest earning assets and interest expense on interest bearing liabilities. Interest earning assets consist principally of loans and investment securities, while interest bearing liabilities consist primarily of deposits. Net income is also effected by the provision for loan losses and the level of non-interest income as well as by non-interest expenses, including salary and employee benefits, occupancy expenses and other operating expenses. Net Income. Net income was $10.8 million in 1998 compared to $9.4 million in 1997 and $10.2 million in 1996. Basic earnings per share were $1.19, $1.04 and $1.16 for 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The increase in net income of $1.4 million in 1998, or 15%, is primarily due to an increase in net interest income, primarily attributable to the growth in average loans and the acquisition of higher yielding investment securities during 1998. The $.8 million decrease in net income for 1997 from 1996 was primarily due to the receipt of nonrecurring income in 1996 relating to loan recoveries. Net Interest Income. Net interest income is affected by market and economic conditions, which influence rates on loan and deposit growth. Net interest income was $27.5 million in 1998, compared to $23.3 million in 1997, and $23.6 million in 1996. Yields on interest earning assets decreased slightly to 10.11% for 1998 from 10.16% in 1997, a difference of 5 basis points. The yield on interest earning assets in 1997 increased 10 basis points from 10.06% for 1996. Average interest earning assets increased to $403.1 million from $330.6 million in 1997, primarily due to the purchase of a $75 million loan portfolio in December 1997. Average interest earning assets decreased $3.8 million in 1997 from $334.4 million in 1996 to $330.6 million for 1997, primarily due to decreases in investment securities of $15.6 million, partially offset by an increase in the average balance of loans of $12.8 million. Yields on interest bearing liabilities increased to 4.84% in 1998 versus 4.76% in 1997 and, 4.59% for 1996. Yields on interest bearing deposits increased primarily due to higher costing certificates of deposits in 1998. Additionally, other borrowings also contributed to this increase due to the addition of a $30 million FHLB advance in December 1997 at an annual rate of 6.24% for a term of five years. Average interest bearing liabilities increased to $272.1 million from $210.9 million for 1997, primarily due to increases of certificates of deposit and the FHLB borrowing of $20.3 million and $28.5 million, respectively. 21 22 LOANS AND MORTGAGES
1998 1997 1996 ------------ ------------ ------------ Average loan outstandings $299,916,000 $213,368,000 $200,618,000 Interest and fees on loans $ 33,513,000 $ 25,737,000 $ 25,110,000 Average Yield 11.17% 12.06% 12.52%
RBPA continues to originate five year fixed rate loans, a portion of the loan portfolio continues to be comprised of variable rate loans which helps to maintain its interest spread when rates change. RBPA's average prime rate decreased to 8.19% in 1998 from 8.43% in 1997, which contributed to the 89 basis point decline in the yield on loans from a yield of 12.06% in 1997 to a yield of 11.17% for 1998. The average balance of loans increased $86.5 million to $299.9 million in 1998 primarily due to the purchase of the FDIC loan portfolio in December 1997 in addition to internally generated loan growth during 1998. In 1997, while RBPA's average prime rate increased to 8.43% from 8.29% in 1996, the yield on loans decreased 46 basis points in 1997 from 12.52% in 1996 to 12.06% in 1997 primarily due to interest recoveries in 1996 relating to loan payoffs in 1996. Average loans increased to $12.8 million to $213.4 million in 1997 primarily due to internally generated loan growth. INVESTMENTS SECURITIES HELD TO MATURITY
1998 1997 1996 ------------ ------------ ------------ Average HTM investment securities $ 50,044,000 $ 85,854,000 $110,019,000 Interest income $ 3,542,000 $ 5,773,000 $ 7,094,000 Average yield 7.08% 6.72% 6.45%
HTM investment securities are comprised primarily of taxable corporate debt issues and to a lesser extent, US Treasuries and agencies, and non-taxable state and municipal investment securities. The corporate debt issues of investment grade at the time of purchase, with maturities in the three to six year range. It is RBPA's expressed intention to hold these securities to maturity, as has been the established investment policy. In 1998 the yield in HTM investment securities increased 35 basis points to 7.08% from 6.73% in 1997. This increase is partially attributable to a 24 basis point increase in yield on taxable investment securities in 1998, primarily due to the purchase of higher yielding corporate debt securities and the maturity of lower yielding securities during the year. However, the average balance of HTM investment securities decreased $35.8 million to $50 million in 1998 as scheduled maturities outpaced purchases. In 1997, the yield in HTM investment securities increased 28 basis points to 6.73% from 6.45% in 1996. This increase is partially attributable to an increase in yield on taxable investment securities of 24 basis points in 1997, in addition to an increase in the average balance of the nontaxable investment securities, which have a higher effective yield. The average balance of HTM investment securities decreased $24.2 million in 1997 as scheduled maturities outpaced purchases. 22 23 INVESTMENTS SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE
1998 1997 1996 ----------- ----------- ----------- Average AFS investment securities $27,419,000 $12,212,000 $ 3,674,000 Interest and dividend income $ 2,296,000 $ 991,000 $ 326,000 Average yield 8.37% 8.12% 8.87%
AFS investment securities are comprised primarily of capital trust security issues of regional banks and to a lesser extent preferred and common stock. Some of these securities are rated while others are not. The average balance increased $15.2 million during 1998 to $27.4 million, primarily due to the purchase of capital trust securities. In 1997 the average balance increased $8.5 million to $12.2 million, primarily due to the purchase of capital trust securities, and an increase in the FHLB stock position. INTEREST EXPENSE ON NOW AND MONEY MARKET DEPOSITS
1998 1997 1996 ----------- ----------- ----------- Average NOW & Money Market deposits $79,975,000 $69,077,000 $71,597,000 Interest expense $ 2,174,000 $ 2,171,000 $ 2,129,000 Average cost of funds 2.72% 3.14% 2.97%
In 1998 the average cost of funds on NOW and money market deposits decreased 42 basis points to 2.72% as interest rates decreased slightly in 1998 while the average balance increased $10.9 million. In 1997, the average balance decreased $2.5 million to $69.1 million while the average cost of funds on NOW and money market deposits increased 17 basis points to 3.14% as interest rates increased slightly in 1997. INTEREST EXPENSE ON TIME DEPOSITS
1998 1997 1996 ------------ ------------ ------------ Average time deposits $142,206,000 $121,934,000 $126,089,000 Interest expense $ 8,479,000 $ 7,185,000 $ 7,157,000 Average cost of funds 5.96% 5.89% 5.68%
In 1998, the average balance and the cost of funds of time deposits increased $20.3 million and 7 basis points, respectively, to $142.2 million and a rate of 5.96% primarily due to addition of brokered deposits during the year. In 1997 the average balance of time deposits decreased $4.2 million to $121.9 million while the average cost of funds increased 21 basis points from 5.68% in 1996 to 5.89% in 1997. Although rates in general started to move downward, the reaction of deposits to rate changes (both increases and decreases) is slower than the change in the prime rate because these time deposits must mature before a rate adjustment would become effective. In 1998, seventeen percent of time deposits were comprised of certificates of deposit accounts with balances of $100,000 or more, which have traditionally been considered more rate volatile than lower balance deposits, however at Royal Bank the penalty for early redemption somewhat mitigates this volatility. 23 24 PROVISION FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES The provision for loan losses is an amount charged to expense to provide for future losses on existing loans. In order to determine the amount of the provision for loan loss, RBPA conducts a quarterly review of the loan portfolio to evaluate overall credit quality. This evaluation consists of an analysis of individual loans and overall risk characteristics and size of the loan, and takes into consideration current economic and market conditions, changes in non-performing loans, the capability of specific borrowers to repay loan obligations as well as current collateral values. During 1998, RBPA recorded a provision for loan loss of $4.8 million, as compared to a $2.1 million (credit) recorded in 1997, an increase of $6.9 million. This increase can be attributed to the increase in loan growth during 1998, a $.9 million increase in charge-offs in 1998, and a negative provision (credit) recorded in 1997 primarily due to recoveries exceeding charge-offs. Net charge-offs were $1 million in 1998, an increase of $2.2 million from 1997 primarily due to recoveries exceeding charge-offs in 1997 by $1.2 million. Due to recoveries exceeding charge offs for 1997 and 1996, a recovery from the allowance for loan loss of $2.1 million (credit) and $1.5 million (credit), respectively was recorded in 1997 and 1996. These recoveries in 1997 and 1996 were primarily due to Management's assessment that the overall level of loan loss reserves was adequate. Charge offs in 1997 were $.8 million as compared to $1.1 million for 1996. Recoveries in 1997 were $2 million as compared to $1.9 million in 1996. The allowance for possible loan loss at December 31, 1998 was $11.9 million, or 3.9% of loans as compared to $8.2 million at December 31, 1997 or 2.8% of loans, and $9.1 million at December 31, 1996, or 4.3% of loans. NON-INTEREST INCOME Non-interest income includes service charges on depositors' accounts, safe deposit rentals and various services such as cashing checks, issuing money orders and travelers checks, and redeeming US savings bonds and similar activities. Most components of non-interest income are a modest and stable source of income, with exceptions of one-time gains and losses from the sale of other real estate owned, from period to period these sources of income may vary considerably. Service charges on depositors' accounts, safe deposit rentals and other fees are periodically reviewed by Management to remain competitive with other local banks. Non-interest income increased $.9 million to $3.6 million in 1998 from $2.6 million in 1997. This increase was primarily due to a $2.3 million increase in other income, the result of a reversal of a legal accrual relating to the settlement of litigation in 1998. This increase in other income was partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in gains on sale of other real estate in 1998, and a $.2 million decrease in income relating to service charges. In 1997, non-interest income decreased $1.6 million to $2.6 million in 1997 from $4.2 million in 1996. This decrease primarily due to the decrease in gains associated with the sale of other real estate owned in 1997. In 1997, these gains were $1.2 million as compared to $2 million in 1996. Additionally, gains on sale of loans decreased $.4 million in 1997 primarily due to a decrease in total dollar volume of residential mortgage loans closed and sold in 1997 versus 1996. Loans are transferred into Other Real Estate when the Bank forecloses on the real estate collateralizing a non-performing loan, or when the borrower abandons the property and the Bank elects to assume control of the property. When this occurs 24 25 the Bank will transfer the loan to Other Real Estate at the lower of the book value of the loan or the fair market value, less disposal costs, of the real estate held as collateral. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE Non-interest expense includes compensation and employee benefits, occupancy, advertising, FDIC insurance, state taxes, depreciation, and other expenses such as auditing, automatic teller machines (ATMs), data processing, legal, outside service charges, postage, printing, and other expenses relating to other real estate owned. Non-interest expense decreased $3.7 million in 1998 to $10.9 million from $14.6 million for 1997. This decrease is primarily due to a $4.5 million decrease in salaries and employee benefits, partially offset by $.8 million increase in other operating expense. The decrease in salaries and employee benefits is primarily related to fluctuation in the accrual for the Stock Option and Appreciation Right Plan for 1998 and 1997. RBPA has a Stock Option and Appreciation Right Plan, which provides employees compensation in the form of options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock. The reserve for future stock option expense is reflective of the RBPA's stock price at December 31 of every year. Stock price volatility can contribute to the volatility in the expense associated with the Stock Option and Appreciation Right Plan. In 1998 RBPA's stock price decreased to $16.00 at December 31 1998 from $23.50 at December 31, 1997. Accordingly, RBPA recorded the difference between the current market values and the values at the grant date of $1.4 million (credit) during 1998. The expense accrual for 1997 and 1996 were $3.8 million and $2.5 million, respectively, relating to these stock appreciation rights as employee benefits expense toward the difference between current market values and the values at the grant date. In 1997, total non-interest expense decreased $.5 million to $14.6 million as compared to $15.1 million for 1996. This decrease is primarily due to various decreases in other operating expenses of $.5 million. While salaries and employee benefits expense of $9.5 million represents the largest component of non-interest expense, it decreased slightly from the $9.6 million recorded in 1996. These decreases were partially offset by a $.1 million increase in occupancy expense relating to a settlement of a lease obligation assumed from the Knoblauch State Bank acquisition. ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES The provision for federal income taxes was $4.6 million in 1998 as compared to $4.1 million for 1997 and $3.9 million for 1996 representing an effective tax rate of 30%, 30.3% and 27.6%, respectively. The $.5 million increase in the tax provision for 1998 is primarily due to a higher level of taxable income for 1998 of $2 million, primarily related to interest income on loans. The increase in the tax provision for 1997 was due to a change in the deferred tax asset in 1997 from 1996. ACCOUNTING FOR DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES The Bank adopted SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," at January 1, 1994. This standard requires investments in securities to be classified in one of three categories; held to maturity, trading or available for sale. Debt securities that the Bank has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held to maturity and are reported at amortized cost. As the Bank does not engage in security trading, the balance of its debt securities and any equity securities are 25 26 classified as available for sale. Net unrealized gains and losses for such securities, net of tax effect, are required to be recognized as a separate component of stockholders' equity and excluded from the determination of net income. Since the majority of the Bank's investments are classified as held to maturity, the adoption of SFAS No. 115 did not have a significant effect on stockholders' equity at January 1, 1994 and December 31, 1994. ASSET LIABILITY MANAGEMENT The primary functions of asset-liability management are to assure adequate liquidity and maintain an appropriate balance between interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. This process is overseen by the Asset-Liability Committee ("ALCO") which monitors and controls, among other variables, the liquidity, balance sheet structure and interest rate risk of the consolidated company within policy parameters established and outlined in the Funds, Cash Flow and Liquidity Policies and Procedures which are reviewed by the Board of Directors at least annually. Additionally, the ALCO committee meets periodically and reports on liquidity, interest rate sensitivity and projects financial performance in various interest rate scenarios. Liquidity. Liquidity is the ability of the financial institution to ensure that adequate funds will be available to meet its financial commitments as they become due. In managing its liquidity position, the financial institution evaluates all sources of funds, the largest of which is deposits. Also taken into consideration is the repayment of loans. These sources provide the financial institution with alternatives to meet its short-term liquidity needs. Longer-term liquidity needs may be met by issuing longer-term deposits and by raising additional capital. RBPA generally maintains a liquidity ratio equal to or greater than 25% of total deposits and short-term liabilities. Liquidity is specifically defined as the ratio of net cash, short term and marketable assets to net deposits and short-term liabilities. The liquidity ratio for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996 was 40%, 39%, 49%, respectively. Management believes that RBPA's liquidity position continues to be adequate, continues to be in excess of its peer group level and meets or exceeds the liquidity target set forth in the Funds, Cash Flow and Liquidity Policies and Procedures. Management believes that due to its financial position, it will be able to raise deposits as needed to meet liquidity demands. However, any financial institution could have unmet liquidity demands at any time. Interest Rate Sensitivity. Interest rate sensitivity is a function of the repricing characteristics of the financial institution's assets and liabilities. These include the volume of assets and liabilities repricing, the timing of repricing, and the relative levels of repricing. Attempting to minimize the interest rate sensitivity gaps is a continual challenge in a changing rate environment. The interest sensitivity report examines the positioning of the interest rate risk exposure in a changing interest rate environment. Ideally the rate sensitive assets and liabilities will be maintained in a matched position to minimize interest rate risk. The interest rate sensitivity analysis is an important management tool, however, it does have some inherent shortcomings. It is a "static" analysis. Although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Additionally, repricing characteristics of certain assets and liabilities may vary substantially within a given period. 26 27 The following table summarizes repricing intervals for interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities as of December 31, 1998, and the difference or "gap" between them on an actual and cumulative basis for the periods indicated. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities. During a period of falling interest rates, a positive gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income, while a negative gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income. During a period of rising interest rates, a positive gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income while a negative gap would tend to affect net interest income adversely. At December 31, 1998, RBPA is in an asset sensitive position of $11.7 million, which indicates assets will reprice somewhat faster than liabilities within one year.

(1) Interest earning assets are included in the period in which the balances are expected to be repaid and/or repriced as a result of anticipated prepayments, scheduled rate adjustments, and contractual maturities. (2) Reflects principal maturing within the specified periods for fixed and variable rate loans and includes nonperforming loans. (3) Fixed rate loans include a portion of variable rate loans whose floors are in effect at December 31, 1998. (4) For purposes of gap analysis, other assets include the allowance for possible loan loss; unamortized discount on purchased loans and deferred fees on loans. (5) Based on historical analysis, Money market and Savings deposits are assumed to have rate sensitivity of 1 month; NOW account deposits are assumed to have a rate sensitivity of 4 months. 27 28 The method to analyze interest rate sensitivity in the table above has a number of limitations. Certain assets and liabilities may react differently to changes in interest rates even though they reprice or mature in the same time periods. The interest rates on certain assets and liabilities may change at different times than changes in market interest rates, with some changing in advance of changes in market rates and some lagging behind changes in market rates. Also, certain assets have provisions, which limit changes in interest rates each time the interest rate changes and for the entire term of the loan. Additionally, prepayments and withdrawals experienced in the event of a change in interest rates may deviate significantly from those assumed in the interest rate sensitivity table. Additionally, the ability of some borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase. CAPITAL ADEQUACY The table shown below sets forth RBPA's consolidated capital level and performance ratios.

RBPA's sources of capital have been derived from the issuance of stock as well as retained earnings. While RBPA has not had a stock offering since 1986, total stockholder's equity has increased primarily due to steady increases in retained earnings. At December 31, 1998, RBPA had an average capital to average asset ratio of 22.4%. RBPA has no current plans to raise capital through new stock offerings and indeed, seeks ways to leverage its existing capital, which is considered excessive by industry standards. In early 1989, each of the federal bank regulatory agencies issued risk-based capital standards, which were phased in December 31, 1992. The new standards place assets in various categories of risk with varying weights assigned, and consider certain off-balance sheet activities, such as letters of credit and loan commitments in the base for purposes of determining capital adequacy. The principal objective of establishing the risk-based capital framework is to achieve greater convergence in the measurement and assessment of capital adequacy due to the divergence of asset mixes maintained from one depository institution to the next. At December 31, 1998, RBPA's ratio using these standards was 24.1%. YEAR 2000 Management has initiated a company wide program to prepare RBPA's computer systems and applications for the year 2000. The year 2000 problem is pervasive and complex as virtually every computer system will be affected in some way by the rollover of the two-digit year value to 00. Through a special committee, RBPA has conducted a comprehensive review of its computer systems and third party vendors providing hardware and software services and has identified systems and vendors that could be 28 29 affected by the year 2000 issue. The Bank subsidiary will replace or cause third party vendors to replace all software and hardware that is not year 200 compliant. All year 200 replacement software and hardware will be fully tested by March 31, 1999. As much of RBPA's data processing is outsourced to third party vendors, RBPA does not expect the costs associated with year 2000 compliance over the next three years to have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations. The amount expensed in 1998 was immaterial. MANAGEMENT OPTIONS TO PURCHASE SECURITIES On June 27, 1990, the directors of the Bank approved the Royal Bank of Pennsylvania Non-qualified Stock Option and Appreciation Right Plan (the Plan). The Plan was reapproved by the shareholders in connection with the formation of the holding company. The Plan is an incentive program under which Bank officers and other key employees may be awarded additional compensation in the form of options to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of the Registrant's Class A common stock (but not in excess of 15% of outstanding shares). The option price is equal to the fair market value at the date of the grant. At December 31, 1998, 464,583 options have been granted (the fair market per share at the time of the grant was $19.95 in 1998 and $13.75 in 1997) which are exercisable at 20% per year. At December 31, 1998, options covering 304,258 shares were exercisable. In 1990, the directors of the Bank approved a non-qualified Outside Directors Stock Option Plan. The Plan was reapproved by the shareholders in connection with the formation of the holding company. Under the terms of the plan, 150,000 shares of Class A stock are authorized for grants. Each director is entitled to 1,500 shares of stock annually, which is exercisable after one year of service. The options were granted at the fair market value ($19.952 per share in 1998 and $13.75 in 1997) at the date of the grant. Currently, the strike price on the options ranges from $2.608 to $19.952 per share. During 1998, 1,404 options were exercised at strike prices of $7.345 per share. At December 31, 1998, 63,992 options were outstanding and options covering 49,952 shares were exercisable. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK A simulation model is therefore used to estimate the impact of various changes, both upward and downward, in market interest rates and volumes of assets and liabilities on the net income. This model produces an interest rate exposure report that forecast changes in the market value of portfolio equity under alternative interest rate environment. The market value of portfolio is defined as the present value of existing assets and liabilities. The calculated estimates of changes in the market value of portfolio value are as follows: At December 31, 1998 (Dollars in Thousands)
Market Value of Percent of Changes in Rates Portfolio Equity Change ---------------- ---------------- ------ + 300 basis points $ 97,860 (10.3) + 200 basis points 101,614 (6.9) + 100 basis points 105,367 (3.4) Flat rate 109,120 -- - 100 basis points 116,626 6.9 - 200 basis points 124,134 13.8 - 300 basis points 131,640 20.6
The assumptions used in evaluating the vulnerability of earnings and capital to changes in interest rates are based on management's considerations of past experience, current position and anticipated future 29 30 economic conditions. The interest rate sensitivity of assets and liabilities as well as the estimated effect of changes in interest rates on the market value of portfolio equity could vary substantially if different assumptions are used or actual experience differs from the calculations were based. 30 31 ITEM 8.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these statements. 38 39 Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1998 and 1997 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. (the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Royal Investments of Delaware, Inc. and Royal Bank of Pennsylvania (the Bank), including the Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, Royal Real Estate, Inc. On June 29, 1995, the Company was formed and acquired all of the outstanding common stock of the Bank in a business combination accounted for in a manner similar to a pooling of interests. In the transaction, the Bank's shareholders exchanged common stock of the Bank for common stock of the Company on a share-for-share basis. These financial statements reflect the historical information of the Company. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. 1. Business The Company, through its subsidiary bank, offers a full range of banking services to individual and corporate customers located in eastern Pennsylvania. The Bank competes with other banking and financial institutions in certain markets, including financial institutions with resources substantially greater than its own. Commercial banks, savings banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions and money market funds actively compete for savings and time deposits and for various types of loans. Such institutions, as well as consumer finance and insurance companies, may be considered competitors of the Bank with respect to one or more of the services it renders. In addition to being subject to competition from other financial institutions, the Company is subject to regulations of certain federal agencies and, accordingly, it is periodically examined by those regulatory authorities. On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS No. 131 redefines how operating segments are determined and requires disclosures of certain financial and descriptive information about the Company's operating segments. Management has determined the Company operates in one business segment, community banking. 2. Use of Estimates In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenditures for the period. Therefore, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The principal estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relates to the allowance for loan losses. In connection with this estimate, when circumstances warrant, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties. However, future changes in real estate market conditions and the economy could affect the Company's allowance for loan losses.

Investment Securities The Company accounts for investment securities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." This standard requires investments in securities to be classified in one of three categories: held to maturity, trading or available for sale. Debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held to maturity and are reported at amortized cost. As the Company does not engage in security trading, the balance of its debt securities and any equity securities are classified as available for sale. Net unrealized gains and losses for such securities, net of tax effect, are required to be recognized as a separate component of stockholders' equity and excluded from the determination of net income. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments imbedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative (gains and losses) depends on the intended use of the derivative and resulting designation. SFAS No. 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. Earlier application is permitted only as of the beginning of any fiscal quarter. The adoption of SFAS No. 133 is not anticipated to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. 4. Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb potential losses in the loan portfolio. Management's determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on an evaluation of the portfolio, past loan loss experience, current economic conditions, volume, growth, and composition of the loan portfolio, and other relevant factors. The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses charged against income. Decreases in the allowance result from management's determination that the allowance for loan losses exceeds their estimates of potential loan loss. The Company adopted SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," as amended by SFAS No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures," on October 1, 1995. This new standard requires that a creditor measure impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, except that as a practical expedient, a creditor may measure impairment based on a loan's observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent. Regardless of the measurement method, a creditor must measure impairment based on the fair value of the collateral when the creditor determines that foreclosure is probable. The adoption of SFAS No. 114, as amended by SFAS No. 118, had no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Loan Fees and Related Costs Interest on loans is accrued and credited to operations based upon the principal amount outstanding. Accretion of unearned discounts on loans has been added to the related interest income. Accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when management believes that the borrower's financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful and generally when a loan becomes 90 days past due as to principal or interest. When interest accruals are discontinued, interest credited to income in the current year is reversed and interest accrued in the prior year is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Management may elect to continue the accrual of interest when the estimated net realizable value of collateral is sufficient to cover the principal balance and accrued interest. 6. Other Real Estate Other real estate is recorded at the lower of the customer's loan balance or the adjusted fair market value of the real estate securing the loan. The adjusted fair market value is determined by reducing the fair market value by estimated costs for the disposition of the property. Costs relating to holding the property are expensed when incurred. 7. Premises and Equipment Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, which is computed principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the improvements or the terms of the related leases. The estimated useful lives for buildings and leasehold improvements range from 15 to 31-1/2 years, and for furniture and fixtures are 5 to 7 years. 8. Income Taxes The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under the liability method specified by SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. The principal types of differences between assets and liabilities for financial statement and tax return purposes are the allowance for loan losses, deferred loan fees and accumulated depreciation. 9. Profit-Sharing Plan The Company has a contributory 401(k) plan covering substantially all employees. The Company contributed $127,788, $135,650 and $125,964 for 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

Stock Option Plans Under two stock option plans, the Company grants stock options to employees, officers and directors. On January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which allows an entity to use a fair value-based method for valuing stock-based compensation which measures compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. Compensation is then recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. Alternatively, the standard permits entities to continue accounting for employee stock options and similar instruments under Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and its related Interpretations. Entities that continue to account for stock options using APB Opinion No. 25 are required to make pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share (EPS), as if the fair value-based method of accounting defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. The Company's stock option plans are accounted for under APB Opinion No. 25. The adoption of SFAS No. 123 had no material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. 11. Per Share Information During 1997, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which eliminates primary and fully diluted EPS and requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock. Prior period EPS calculations have been restated to reflect the adoption of SFAS No. 128. Basic and diluted EPS are calculated as follows:
1998 -------------------------------------------- Income Average shares Per share (numerator) (denominator) amount ----------- ------------- ------ Basic EPS Income available to common shareholders $10,783,940 9,030,657 $ 1.19 Effect of dilutive securities Stock options 333,016 ----------- --------- --------- Diluted EPS Income available to common shareholders plus assumed exercise of options $10,783,940 9,363,673 $ 1.15 =========== ========= =========

EPS is calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of shares outstanding of 9,030,657, 9,000,989 and 8,827,197 for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Per share information and weighted average shares outstanding have been restated to reflect the 4% stock dividend of May 1998, the 4% stock dividend of May 1997 and the 6% stock dividend of May 1996. 12. Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, short-term investments and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are purchased and sold for one-day periods.

Financial Instruments The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," which requires all entities to disclose the estimated fair value of their assets and liabilities considered to be financial instruments. Financial instruments consist primarily of securities, loans and deposits. The Company has provided these disclosures in note R. 14. Long-Lived Assets On January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," which provides guidance on when to recognize and how to measure impairment losses of long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles and how to value long-lived assets to be disposed of. The adoption of SFAS No. 121 had no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. 15. Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities The Company adopted SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," as amended by SFAS No. 127, "Deferral of the Effective Date of Certain Provisions of SFAS No. 125," in 1997. SFAS No. 125 applies a control-oriented, financial components approach to financial asset transfer transactions whereby the Company: (1) recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and the liabilities it has incurred; (2) derecognizes financial assets when control has been surrendered; and (3) derecognizes liabilities once they are extinguished. Under SFAS No. 125, control is considered to have been surrendered only if: (i) the transferred assets have been isolated from the transferor and its creditors, even in bankruptcy or other receivership; (ii) the transferee has the right to pledge or exchange the transferred assets or is a qualifying special-purpose entity (as defined) and the holders of beneficial interests in that entity have the right to pledge or exchange those interests; and (iii) the transferor does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement which both entitles and obligates it to repurchase or redeem those assets prior to maturity, or through an agreement which both entitles it to repurchase or redeem those assets if they were not readily obtainable elsewhere. If any of these conditions are not met, the Company accounts for the transfer as a secured borrowing. SFAS No. 125 also requires that the Company derecognize a liability if and when it is extinguished. A liability is considered extinguished under SFAS No. 125 if: (1) the Company pays the creditor and, thus, is relieved of its obligation for the liability; or (2) is legally released from being the primary obligor under the liability, either judicially or by the creditor. The adoption of SFAS No. 125 had no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Advertising Costs The Company and the Bank expense advertising costs as incurred. 17. Comprehensive Income On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. This standard establishes new standards for reporting comprehensive income which includes net income as well as certain other items which result in a change to equity during the period. These financial statements have been reclassified to reflect the provisions of SFAS No. 130. The income tax effects allocated to comprehensive income is as follows:

Proceeds from the sale of investment securities available for sale during 1998, 1997 and 1996 were $-0-, $18,129 and $-0-, respectively, resulting in gross realized gains of $-0-, $13,643 and $-0- during 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, investment securities with a book value of $13,716,861 and $25,354,865, respectively, were pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law. 48 49 Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 1998 and 1997 NOTE C - LOANS Major classifications of loans are as follows:
1998 1997 ------------- ------------- Consumer $ 2,032,878 $ 1,523,410 Commercial and industrial 127,972,082 123,800,129 Real estate 182,595,194 176,315,363 ------------- ------------- Total gross loans 312,600,154 301,638,902 Less Unearned income (1,833,236) (1,498,426) Unamortized discount on loans purchased (6,291,289) (9,243,428) ------------- ------------- Total loans $ 304,475,629 $ 290,897,048 ============= =============
Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued or reduced amounted to $3,419,378 and $4,316,852 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. If interest had been accrued, such income would have been $307,744 and $388,517 for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Although the Company has non-performing loans of $3,419,378 at December 31, 1998, management believes it has adequate collateral to limit its credit risk. The Company granted loans to the officers and directors of the Company and to their associates. Related party loans are made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated persons and do not involve more than normal risk of collectibility. The aggregate dollar amount of these loans was $14,393,830 and $14,651,598 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. During 1998, $1,224,204 of new loans were made and repayments totalled $1,481,972. The balance of impaired loans was $1,324,829 at December 31, 1998. The Company has identified a loan as impaired when it is probable that interest and principal will not be collected according to the contractual terms of the loan agreements. The income recognized on impaired loans during 1998 was $2,753. Total cash collected on impaired loans during 1998 was $148,175, of which $145,422 was credited to the principal balance outstanding on such loans. Interest that would have been accrued on impaired loans during 1998 was $56,376. The Company's policy for interest income recognition on impaired loans is to recognize income on currently performing restructured loans under the accrual method. The Company recognizes income on non-accrual loans under the cash basis when the principal payments on the loans become current and the collateral on the loan is sufficient to cover the outstanding obligation to the Company. If these factors do not exist, the Company does not recognize income. 49 50 Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 1998 and 1997 NOTE D - ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES Changes in the allowance for loan losses were as follows:

(Continued) 54 55 Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 1998 and 1997 NOTE M - INCOME TAXES - Continued The Company has approximately $23,000,000 of net operating loss carryovers from the acquisition of Knoblauch State Bank (KSB). These losses will fully expire in 2018. The utilization of these losses is subject to limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, a valuation allowance has been established to eliminate the deferred tax asset attributable to these net operating losses. During 1998, the Company realized a tax benefit related to the net operating loss carryovers from the acquisition of KSB. The deferred tax asset associated with those loss carryovers is fully offset by a valuation allowance. Accordingly, the realized tax benefit is reflected as a reduction of the goodwill associated with the acquisition and a corresponding reduction of deferred income tax benefit for the year. NOTE N - STOCK OPTION PLANS At December 31, 1998, the Company had two stock-based compensation plans which are described below. The Company accounts for these plans under APB Opinion No. 25. 1. Outside Directors' Stock Option Plan The Company adopted a non-qualified outside Directors' Stock Option Plan in 1990 (the Director's Plan). Under the terms of the Director's Plan, 150,000 shares of Class A stock are authorized for grants. Each director is entitled to 1,500 shares of stock annually which are exercisable after one year of service. The options were granted at the fair market value ($19.952 in 1998, $13.75 in 1997 and $10.00 in 1996) at the date of the grant. Currently, the strike price on the options ranges from $2.608 to $19.952 per share. During 1998, 1,404 options were exercised at a strike price of $7.345 per share. At December 31, 1998, 63,992 options are outstanding, and options covering 49,952 shares were exercisable. (Continued) 55 56 Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 1998 and 1997 NOTE N - STOCK OPTION PLANS - Continued 2. Stock Option and Appreciation Right Plan The Company adopted a Stock Option and Appreciation Right Plan (the Plan) on June 27, 1990. The Plan is an incentive program under which Company officers and other key employees may be awarded additional compensation in the form of options to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock (but not in excess of 15% of outstanding shares). At the time a stock option is issued, a stock appreciation right for an identical number of shares may also be granted. The option price is equal to the fair market value at the date of the grant. The options are exercisable at 20% per year beginning one year after the date of grant and must be exercised within ten years of the grant. As of December 31, 1998, options covering 304,258 shares were exercisable by 22 employees. Stock option transactions consist of the following:
1998 1997 1996 -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- Weighted Weighted Weighted average average average exercise exercise exercise Shares price Shares price Shares price -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Outstanding at beginning of year 519,277 $ 6.561 540,885 $ 5.917 552,150 $ 5.248 Granted 61,641 14.861 63,487 11.080 100,404 8.430 Exercised (110,723) 3.100 (83,293) 4.091 (107,888) 3.328 Cancelled (5,612) 13.140 (1,802) 10.752 (3,781) 5.624 -------- ------- -------- ------- -------- ------- Outstanding at end of year 464,583 $ 8.133 519,277 $ 6.561 540,885 $ 5.917 ======== ======= ======== ======= ======== ======= Option price per share exercised $2.59 - $13.000 $2.695 - $ 9.633 $2.801 - $ 3.919 Outstanding at end of year $2.59 - $19.183 $2.695 - $13.225 $2.801 - $ 10.00

1998 1997 1996 --------- --------- --------- (in thousands, except per share amounts) Net income As reported $10,784 $ 9,359 $10,237 Pro forma 10,713 9,312 10,212 EPS As reported - basic $ 1.19 $ 1.04 $ 1.16 As reported - diluted 1.15 1.00 1.13 Pro forma - basic 1.19 1.04 1.16 Pro forma - diluted 1.15 1.00 1.13
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes options-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants in 1998, 1997 and 1996: dividend yield of 5.25%, 3.40% and 4.17% for 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively; expected volatility of 37.8%; and risk-free interest rate of 4.57% in 1998 and 5.71% in 1997 and 1996. Expected lives are 10 years for 1998, 1997 and 1996. NOTE O - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK The Company primarily grants commercial and real estate loans in the greater Philadelphia metropolitan area. Approximately 20% of loans are outside the normal lending area. The Company has concentrations of credit risk in real estate development loans (12%) at December 31, 1998. A substantial portion of its debtors' ability to honor these contracts is dependent upon the economic sector. Approximately 55% of the Company's investment portfolio consists of corporate securities. NOTE P - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the financial statements when they become payable. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The contract amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. (Continued) 57 58 Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 1998 and 1997 NOTE P - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK - Continued The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. Unless noted otherwise, the Company does not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with credit risk. The contract amounts as of December 31, 1998 are as follows:
Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk Commitments to extend credit $42,863,552 Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written 5,809,949
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, and others are for staged construction, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent immediate cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation. Collateral held varies but may include personal or commercial real estate, accounts receivable, inventory and equipment. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing and similar transactions. Most guarantees extend for one year and expire in decreasing amounts through 1999. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company holds personal or commercial real estate, accounts receivable, inventory and equipment as collateral supporting those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary. The extent of collateral held for those commitments is 80%. 58 59 Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 1998 and 1997 NOTE Q - REGULATORY MATTERS 1. Payment of Dividends Under the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law, the Company may pay dividends only if it is solvent and would not be rendered insolvent by the dividend payment. There are also restrictions set forth in the Pennsylvania Banking Code of 1965 (the Banking Code) and in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDIA) concerning the payment of dividends by the Company. Under the Banking Code, no dividends may be paid except from "accumulated net earnings" (generally undivided profits). Under the FDIA, no dividend may be paid if a bank is in arrears in the payment of any insurance assessment due to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). 2. Capital Ratios The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory--and possible additional discretionary--actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). As of December 31, 1998, management believes that the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. As of December 31, 1997, the most recent notification from the FDIC categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution's category.

60 61 Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 1998 and 1997 NOTE R - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS SFAS No. 107 requires disclosure of the estimated fair value of an entity's assets and liabilities considered to be financial instruments. For the Company, as for most financial institutions, the majority of its assets and liabilities are considered financial instruments as defined in SFAS No. 107. However, many of such instruments lack an available trading market, as characterized by a willing buyer and seller engaging in an exchange transaction. Also, it is the Company's general practice and intent to hold its financial instruments to maturity and not to engage in trading or sales activities. Therefore, the Company had to use significant estimations and present value calculations to prepare this disclosure. Changes in the assumptions or methodologies used to estimate fair value may materially affect the estimated amounts. Also, management is concerned that there may not be reasonable comparability between institutions due to the wide range of permitted assumptions and methodologies in the absence of active markets. This lack of uniformity gives rise to a high degree of subjectivity in estimating financial instrument fair value. Fair values have been estimated using data which management considered the best available and estimation methodologies deemed suitable for the pertinent category of financial instrument. The estimation methodologies, resulting fair values and recorded carrying amounts at December 31, 1998 and 1997 were as follows: Fair values of loans and deposits with floating interest rates are generally presumed to approximate the recorded carrying amounts. Fair value of financial instruments actively traded in a secondary market has been estimated using quoted market prices as follows:
1998 1997 ----------------------------- --------------------------- Estimated Estimated fair Carrying fair Carrying value amount value amount ----------- ------------ ----------- ----------- Cash and cash equivalents $19,142,624 $ 19,142,624 $30,416,242 $30,416,242 Interest bearing deposits in banks 100,030 100,030 300,030 300,030 Investment securities held to maturity 62,159,860 61,894,538 64,984,987 64,371,042 Investment securities available for sale 36,951,162 36,951,162 21,048,793 21,048,793
(Continued) 61 62 Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 1998 and 1997 NOTE R - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - Continued Fair value of financial instruments with stated maturities has been estimated using present value cash flow, discounted at a rate approximating current market for similar assets and liabilities, as follows:
1998 1997 ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ Estimated Estimated fair Carrying fair Carrying value amount value amount ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Deposits with stated maturities $155,837,473 $154,485,071 $148,725,232 $140,177,697 Mortgage payable 526,720 526,720 570,885 570,885 Long-term borrowings with stated maturities 35,394,276 30,365,000 35,885,229 31,063,000
Fair value of financial instrument liabilities with no stated maturities has been estimated to equal the carrying amount (the amount payable on demand), totalling $135,904,614 and $125,185,737 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Fair value of the net loan portfolio has been estimated using present value cash flow, discounted at the treasury rate adjusted for non-interest operating costs and giving consideration to estimated prepayment risk and credit loss factors, as follows:
1998 1997 ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ Estimated Estimated fair Carrying fair Carrying value amount value amount ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Net loans $318,340,245 $292,556,084 $296,130,317 $282,710,811
There is no material difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value of off-balance-sheet items totalling $48,673,501 and $31,652,524 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, which are primarily comprised of unfunded loan commitments which are generally priced at market at the time of funding. The Company's remaining assets and liabilities are not considered financial instruments. No disclosure of the relationship value of the Company's deposits is required by SFAS No. 107. 62 63 Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 1998 and 1997 NOTE S - CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION - PARENT COMPANY ONLY The Company was formed on June 29, 1995.
