Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Basis of Presentation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Northern Trust Corporation (Corporation) and its subsidiaries (collectively, Northern Trust), all of which are wholly-owned. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements, as of March 31,June 30, 2006 and 2005, have not been audited by the Corporation’s independent registered public accounting firm. In the opinion of management, all accounting entries and adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods have been made. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods’ consolidated financial statements to place them on a basis comparable with the current period’s consolidated financial statements. For a description of Northern Trust’s significant accounting policies, refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2005 Financial Annual Report to Shareholders.
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In MarchOn July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)FASB Interpretation No. 156,48 (FIN 48), “Accounting for ServicingUncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of Financial Assets” (SFAS No. 156), which amends FASB Statement No. 140, “Accounting109,” which provides guidance on the measurement, recognition, and disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, and disclosure. FIN 48 prescribes that a tax position should only be recognized if it is more-likely-than-not that the position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority. A tax position that meets this threshold is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The cumulative effect of applying the provisions of FIN 48 is to be reported as an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. FIN 48 is effective for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.” SFAS No. 156 requires an entity to separately recognize servicing assets and servicing liabilities and to report these balances at fair value upon inception. Future methods of assessing values can be performed using either the amortization or fair value measurement techniques. Adoption of SFAS No. 156 is required for transactions occurring in fiscal years beginning after SeptemberDecember 15, 2006. The adoptionAdoption as of this standardJanuary 1, 2007 is not expected to have a material impacteffect on Northern Trust’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

On July 2005,13, 2006, the FASB issued for comment proposed Staff Position No. FAS 13-a13-2 (FSP 13-a)13-2), “Accounting for a Change or Projected Change in the Timing of Cash Flows Relating to Income Taxes Generated by a Leveraged Lease Transaction,” which would amendamends FASB Statement No. 13, “Accounting for Leases,Leases.” and modify certain related interpretations and industry practices. This proposed Staff Position has implications relatedaddresses how a change or projected change in the timing of cash flows relating to income taxes generated by a leveraged lease affects the accounting by a lessor for potential income tax settlements in connection with leveraged leases. If approved as currently written,that lease. FSP 13-a would require13-2 requires a recalculation of the rate of return and allocation of income from the inception of a leveraged lease if, during the lease term, the expected timing of the income tax cash flows generated by a leveraged lease is revised. The recalculation would includeincludes actual cash flows that occurred up to the date of the recalculation and including the point of actual or expected settlement and the estimatedprojected cash flows thereafter. The original effective datechange in the leveraged lease net investment balances as a result of the recalculation is recognized as a gain or loss in the year cash flows change. Additionally, a lessor must apply the provisions of FIN 48 to its tax positions when initially calculating or subsequently recalculating leveraged lease cash flows and determining the related income allocation. The cumulative effect of applying the provisions of this Staff Position is reported as an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. Adoption of FSP 13-a has been deferred13-2 is required as of January 1, 2007 for calendar year-end companies. Northern Trust is currently evaluating the provisions of FSP 13-2 and the FASB has not yet finalized a revised required adoption date. Application of proposed FSP 13-a as currently writtenapplication to certain of Northern Trust’s structured leasing transactions under review by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) (see note 12) could result in a one-time charge to Northern Trust’s earnings. However, an amount approximating this one-time charge would be recognized into income over the remaining term of the affectedits leveraged leases.

3. Stock-Based Compensation Plans - Northern Trust adopted the FASB’s SFASStatement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” (SFAS No. 123(R)) on the required effective date, January 1, 2006, using the modified prospective transition method provided for under the standard. SFAS No. 123(R) addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. SFAS No. 123(R) requires an entity to recognize as compensation expense the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation granted to employees within the income statement using a fair-value-based method, eliminating the intrinsic value method of accounting previously permissible under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB No. 25) and related interpretations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Expense treatment under SFAS No. 123(R) for stock options granted through MarchJune 2006, including Northern Trust’s primary grant of options for 2006, increased pre-tax compensation expense by $10.2$2.7 million ($6.4 million after-tax) in the quarter, resulting in a $.03$.01 reduction in diluted earnings per share. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, expense treatment increased pre-tax compensation expense by $12.9 million resulting in a $.04 reduction in diluted earnings per share. The pre-tax expense recorded in the quarter2006 year-to-date includes $7.5 million attributable to options granted in the first quarter of 2006 to retirement-eligible employees, which were expensed in their entirety on the grant date. Northern Trust’s estimate of the full year increase in compensation expense due to the expensing of stock options for 2006 is approximately $18 million, which would result in an approximate $.05 reduction in diluted earnings per share.
Northern Trust’s share-based payment arrangements are described under “2002 Stock Plan” below. Total compensation expense for share-based payment arrangements for the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 was as follows:

As of March 31,June 30, 2006, there was $76.1$67.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Corporation’s stock-based compensation plans. That cost is expected to be recognized as expense over a weighted-average period of approximately 3.23.1 years.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Certain of Northern Trust’s share-based award grants contain terms that provide for a graded vesting schedule whereby portions of the award vest in increments over the requisite service period. As provided for under SFAS No. 123(R), Northern Trust has elected to recognize compensation expense for awards with graded vesting schedules on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Additionally, SFAS No. 123(R) requires companies to recognize compensation expense based on the estimated number of stock options and awards for which service is expected to be rendered. Northern Trust has determined that historical forfeitures of its share-based awards have not been materialsignificant and has not adjusted for forfeitures in its share-based awards expensed under SFAS No. 123(R).

Prior to January 1, 2006, Northern Trust accounted for its share-based incentives under the FASB’s SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” which allowed two alternative accounting methods for stock-based compensation: (1) a fair-value-based method, or (2) an intrinsic-value-based method prescribed by APB No. 25 and related interpretations. Northern Trust elected to use the intrinsic-value-based method of accounting for stock-based compensation under APB No. 25, and adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure.”
Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2005 is presented below as if the Corporation had accounted for all stock-based compensation under the fair value method of SFAS No. 123. In February 2005, options with a weighted average fair value of $12.37 per share were granted. The terms of this option grant provided for full vesting on March 31, 2005. The pro forma information for the quartersix months ended March 31,June 30, 2005 presented in the following tablebelow includes $29.7 million ($18.5 million after-tax) of pro forma expense reflecting the full vesting of the February 2005 option grant on March 31, 2005.

SFAS No. 123 (R)123(R) requires that cash flows resulting from the realization of tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized (excess tax benefits) are to be classified as financing cash flows. Before the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), Northern Trust presented all tax benefits realized from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Statement of Cash Flows. For the quarterssix months ended March 31,June 30, 2006 and 2005, excess tax benefits of $4.7$12.9 million and $1.2$5.1 million, respectively, are shown as financing cash inflows and operating cash inflows, respectively, in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
In addition, SFAS No. 123(R) requires that any deferred compensation related to awards granted prior to its adoption must be eliminated against the appropriate equity accounts. As a result, the presentation of the Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity was revised to reflect the transfer of balances previously reported in the Deferred Compensation and Common Stock Issuable – Stock Incentive Plans accounts to Additional Paid-In Capital.

2002 Stock Plan
Effective April 16, 2002, the Corporation adopted the Northern Trust Corporation 2002 Stock Plan (the Plan) to replace the Northern Trust Corporation Amended 1992 Incentive Stock Plan (1992 Plan). The Plan is administered by the Compensation and Benefits Committee (Committee) of the Board of Directors. All employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries and all directors of the Corporation are eligible to receive awards under the Plan. The Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, stock units and performance shares. The total number of shares of the Corporation’s common stock authorized for issuance under the Plan is 22,000,000. As of March 31,June 30, 2006, shares available for future grant under the planPlan totaled 6,432,797.6,496,677.
The following description applies to awards under the Plan and the 1992 Plan, as applicable.
Stock Options - Stock options consist of options to purchase common stock at purchase prices not less than 100% of the fair market value thereof on the date the option is granted. Options have a maximum ten-year life and generally vest and become exercisable in one to four years after the date of grant. In addition, all options may become exercisable upon a “change of control” as defined in the Plan or the 1992 Plan. All options terminate at such time as determined by the Committee and as provided in the terms and conditions of the respective option grants.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted-average assumptions used for options granted during the first quarter ofsix months ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005 were as follows:
Six Months Ended June 30 | ||||||||||||
First Quarter 2006 | First Quarter 2005 | 2006 | 2005 | |||||||||
Dividend Yield | 2.75 | % | 3.03 | % | 2.75 | % | 3.03 | % | ||||

Risk Free Interest Rate | 4.36 | 4.21 | 4.36 | 4.21 | ||||||||
Expected Term (in Years) | 5.7 | 5.5 | 5.7 | 5.5 |
Expected volatility is determined based on the historical daily volatility of Northern Trust’s stock price over a period equal to the contractual life of the option. The expected term of the options represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding based primarily on the historical exercise behavior attributable to previous option grants. The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time of grant for a period equal to the expected term of the options granted.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the first quarters ofsix months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 was $26.9$27.0 million and $29.7 million, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the quarterssix months ended March 31,June 30, 2006 and June, 30 2005 was $16.6$41.8 million and $5.3$19.8 million, respectively. Cash received from options exercised totaled $16.8$45.0 million and $4.2$17.2 million for the quarterssix months ended March 31,June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The actual tax benefit realized from tax deductions on options exercised during the quarterssix months ended March 31,June 30, 2006 and 2005 was $3.7$10.6 million and $1.0$4.8 million, respectively.
Shares purchased under the Corporation’s share buyback program are held as treasury shares and can be used for general purposes of the Corporation, including the issuance of shares for stock options and other stock incentive plans.

The reserve for credit losses represents management’s estimate of probable inherent losses that have occurred as of the date of the financial statements. The loan and lease portfolio and other credit exposures are regularly reviewed to evaluate the adequacy of the reserve for credit losses. In determining the level of the reserve, Northern Trust evaluates the reserve necessary for specific nonperforming loans and also estimates losses inherent in other credit exposures.
The result is a reserve with the following components:
Specific Reserve. The amount of specific reserves is determined through a loan-by-loan analysis of nonperforming loans that considers expected future cash flows, the value of collateral, and other factors that may impact the borrower’s ability to pay.
Allocated Inherent Reserve. The amount of the allocated portion of the inherent loss reserve is based on loss factors assigned to Northern Trust’s credit exposures based on internal credit ratings. These loss factors are primarily based on management’s judgment of estimated credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio as well as historical charge-off experience.
15
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Unallocated Inherent Reserve.Management determines the unallocated portion of the inherent loss reserve based on factors that cannot be associated with a specific credit or loan category. These factors include management’s subjective evaluation of local, national, and nationalinternational economic and business conditions, portfolio concentration, and changes in the character and size of the loan portfolio. The unallocated portion of the inherent loss reserve reflects management’s recognition of the imprecision inherent in the process of estimating probable credit losses.

Note: For the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, optionsOptions to purchase 6,060,018 and 16,768,275 shares of the Corporation’s common stock totaling 4,999,200 and 5,519,717 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, and 11,352,639 and 13,996,382 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise prices were greater than the average market price of Northern Trust’s common stock during these periods.
11. Income Taxes - Total income tax expense for the quarter was $113.3 million representing an effective rate of 40.3%. This compares with $81.1 million in the prior year, representing an effective rate of 35.1%. The increased provision reflects the increase in pre-tax earnings and the reserve adjustments associated with Northern Trust’s leveraged leasing portfolio. In the second quarter, Northern Trust increased by approximately $11 million its tax reserves for uncertainties associated with the timing of tax deductions related to certain leveraged lease transactions that have been challenged by the IRS. The decision to increase tax reserves reflects Northern Trust’s evaluation of recent developments in the industry relating to this matter.
The recently enacted TIPRA legislation repealed the exclusion from federal income taxation of certain income generated by a form of a leveraged lease known as an Ownership Foreign Sales Corporation (OFSC) transaction. Lease accounting standards require that the cumulative effect of a change in a significant assumption that impacts the cash flows of a leveraged lease, such as a tax law change, be recognized in the period in which the change occurs. As a result of this legislation, a net after tax adjustment of $4.0 million was recorded in the second quarter, representing a $5.8 million tax provision offset by $1.8 million of interest income on leases.

12.13. Contingent Liabilities - Standby letters of credit obligate Northern Trust to meet certain financial obligations of its clients, if, under the contractual terms of the agreement, the clients are unable to do so. These instruments are primarily issued to support public and private financial commitments, including commercial paper, bond financing, initial margin requirements on futures exchanges and similar transactions. Certain standby letters of credit have been secured with cash deposits or participated to others. Northern Trust is obligated to meet the entire financial obligation of these agreements and in certain cases is able to recover the amounts paid through recourse against cash deposits or other participants. Standby letters of credit outstanding were $2.7$2.8 billion on March 31,June 30, 2006, $2.8 billion on December 31, 2005 and $2.7$2.6 billion on March 31,June 30, 2005. Northern Trust’s liability on the consolidated balance sheet for standby letters of credit, measured as the amount of unamortized fees on these instruments, was $7.6$7.4 million at March 31,June 30, 2006, $10.2 million at December 31, 2005 and $6.5$5.8 million at March 31,June 30, 2005.
As part of securities custody activities and at the direction of trust clients, Northern Trust lends securities owned by clients to borrowers who are reviewed by the Credit Policy Credit Approval Committee. In connection with these activities, Northern Trust has issued certain indemnifications against loss resulting from the bankruptcy of the borrower of the securities. The borrowing party is required to fully collateralize securities received with cash, marketable securities, or irrevocable standby letters of credit. As securities are loaned, collateral is maintained at a minimum of 100 percent of the fair value of the securities plus accrued interest. The collateral is revalued on a daily basis. The amount of securities loaned subject to indemnification was $152.0$149.7 billion at March 31,June 30, 2006, $135.2 billion at December 31, 2005 and $129.5$125.1 billion at March 31,June 30, 2005. Because of the requirement to fully collateralize securities borrowed, management believes that the exposure to credit loss from this activity is remote and there are no liabilities reflected on the consolidated balance sheet at March 31,June 30, 2006, December 31, 2005 or March 31,June 30, 2005 related to these indemnifications.

In the normal course of business, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are routinely defendants in or parties to a number of pending and threatened legal actions, including actions brought on behalf of various classes of claimants, regulatory matters, and challenges from tax authorities regarding the amount of taxes due. In certain of these actions and proceedings, claims for substantial monetary damages or adjustments to recorded tax liabilities are asserted. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of such matters, particularly actions that seek very large damages based on novel and complex damage and liability legal theories, and involve a large number of parties, the Corporation cannot state with confidence the eventual outcome of these matters or the timing of their ultimate resolution, or estimate the possible loss or range of loss associated with them; however, based on current knowledge and after consultation with legal counsel, management does not believe that judgments or settlements, if any, arising from pending or threatened legal actions, regulatory matters or challenges from tax authorities, either individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or liquidity of the Corporation, although they could have a material adverse effect on operating results for a particular period.

One subsidiary of the Corporation was named as a defendant in several Enron-related class action suits that were consolidated under a single complaint in the Federal District Court for the Southern District of Texas (Houston). Individual participants in the employee pension benefit plans sponsored by Enron Corp. sued various corporate entities and individuals, including the Bank in its capacity as the former directed trustee of the Enron Corp. Savings Plan and former service-provider for the Enron Corp. Employee Stock Ownership Plan. The lawsuit made claims,inter alia, for breach of fiduciary duty to the plan participants, and sought equitable relief and monetary damages in an unspecified amount against the defendants. On September 30, 2003, the court denied the Bank’s motion to dismiss the complaint as a matter of law. In an Amended Consolidated Complaint filed on January 2, 2004, plaintiffs continued to assert claims against the Bank and other defendants under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, seeking a finding that defendants are liable to restore to the benefit plans and the plaintiffs hundreds of millions of dollars of losses allegedly caused by defendants’ alleged breaches of fiduciary duty. In June 2003, after conducting an extensive investigation, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) filed a civil action against numerous parties charging that they violated their obligations to the Enron plan participants. The DOL did not name any Northern Trust entity or employee as a defendant in its suit. On March 31, 2006, the Corporation announced that the Bank had reached an agreement with counsel for the plaintiffs in the Enron lawsuit to seek approval of a settlement of that class action at $37.5 million, all of which will be paid by the Corporation’s insurance carriers. Before the settlement can be finalized, it will have to be approved by the court. On April 20,July 24, 2006, the court gave preliminaryfinal approval to the settlement. A hearing at which the court may give final approval of the settlement is scheduled for July 24, 2006. As part of the proposed settlement, the Corporation has agreed to givegave up any claim it might havehad against Enron, presently in bankruptcy, arising out of or relating to the Enron employee benefit plans.

In another Enron-related matter, in November and December 2003, Enron as debtor-in-possession filed two lawsuits in the bankruptcy court in New York seeking to recover for its bankruptcy estate more than $1 billion it paid in the fall of 2001 to buy back its commercial paper. Enron claims that the money it paid to buy back its commercial paper approximately six weeks prior to its bankruptcy filing represented “preference” payments and “fraudulent transfers” that can be reversed with the money going back to Enron. Since the Bank sold approximately $197 million of this Enron commercial paper that it held for some of its clients, the Bank and those clients are among scores of defendants named in these complaints. In June 2005, the bankruptcy judge denied the defendants’ motions to dismiss the complaints. Defendants filed petitions with the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York seeking review of the bankruptcy court ruling. The Securities and Exchange Commission, the Federal Reserve Board, and the United States Treasury Department also filed a briefbriefs supporting defendants’ position urging the District Court to review the ruling. The Corporation and the Bank will continue to defend these actions vigorously.

As part of its audit of federal tax returns filed from 1996 – 2000, the IRS challenged the Corporation’s tax position with respect to thirteen investments made in structured leasing transactions and proposed to disallow certain tax deductions and assess related interest and penalties. During the second quarter of 2005, the IRS issued a revised examination report that continued to disallow certain tax deductions and included additional proposed adjustments to income and penalty assessments. In October 2005, the IRS Tax Appeals Division informed the Corporation that the Criminal Investigation Division of the IRS had initiated an investigation relating to structured leasing transactions in which the Corporation had participated. The Corporation is cooperating fully in the investigation. The Corporation does not know the full scope of the investigation and cannot predict at this time the impact of the investigation or when or on what basis the investigation will be resolved. The Corporation believes that these transactions are valid leases for U.S. tax purposes and that its tax treatment of these transactions is appropriate based on its interpretation of the tax regulations and legal precedents; a court or other judicial authority, however, could disagree. The Corporation believes it has adequate reserves to cover its tax liabilities, including liabilities related to structured leasing transactions, and related interest and penalties. The Corporation will continue to defend its position on the tax treatment of the leases vigorously.

Pledged Assets - Securities and loans pledged to secure public and trust deposits, repurchase agreements, and for other purposes as required or permitted by law were $10.7$11.4 billion on March 31,June 30, 2006, $12.4 billion on December 31, 2005 and $10.4$10.9 billion on March 31,June 30, 2005. Included in the MarchJune 2006 pledged assets were securities available for sale of $2.3$1.7 billion that were pledged as collateral for agreements to repurchase securities sold transactions. The secured parties to these transactions have the right to repledge or sell these securities.
Northern Trust is permitted to repledge or sell collateral from agreements to resell securities purchased transactions. The total fair value of accepted collateral as of March 31,June 30, 2006, December 31, 2005 and March 31,June 30, 2005 was $372.9$430.3 million, $793.1 million and $639.4$223.4 million, respectively.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FIRSTSECOND QUARTER CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
Net income per common share on a diluted basis for the firstsecond quarter was a record $.74,$.76, an increase of 17%12% from $.63$.68 per share earned in last year’s firstsecond quarter. Net income also increased 17%12% to a record $163.0$167.9 million, up from $139.1$150.0 million earned in the firstsecond quarter of last year. This performance produced an annualized return on average common equity (ROE) of 18.22%18.05% versus 17.06%17.84% reported for the comparable quarter last year and an annualized return on average assets (ROA) of 1.33%1.28% versus 1.29% in 2005.
Net income in the second quarter was reduced by $15.0 million ($.07 per share) as a result of reserve adjustments associated with Northern Trust’s leveraged leasing portfolio. The adjustments increase tax reserves for leasing-related tax deductions that have been challenged by the IRS and also recognize the impact of the recently enacted Tax Increase Prevention and Reconciliation Act (TIPRA) on certain lease transactions.
Revenues stated on a fully taxable equivalent basis of $743.0$792.3 million were up 20%15% from $621.1$687.4 million in last year’s firstsecond quarter, and included $39.3 million, net of acquisition-related funding costs, related to FSG. Adjusting for FSG, revenues increased 13%. The first quarter revenue growth reflectsreflecting record trust, investment and other servicing fees of $442.5$452.8 million, up 24%13% from the firstsecond quarter of last year. Net interest income and foreign exchange trading income also reached record levels,was up 11% from a year ago to $190.6$199.0 million and 46%foreign exchange trading income was up 64% to $55.8$84.4 million, respectively.both reaching record levels. Noninterest expenses totaled $473.3$492.0 million for the quarter, up 20%11% from $395.0$441.6 million in the year-ago quarter. FSG expenses, including integration expenses, totaled $34.9 million in the first quarter, representing 45% of the total increase in noninterest expenses. Adjusting for FSG, noninterest expenses increased 11%.
Financial Services Group Acquisition
On March 31, 2005, Northern Trust completed its acquisition of Baring Asset Management’s Financial Services Group (FSG). The final adjusted purchase price totaled 261.5 million British pounds Sterling. The after-tax impact of this acquisition added approximately $2.5 million to the current quarter’s net income.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income totaled $552.4$593.3 million for the quarter, up 23%17% from $449.4$507.6 million reported last year, and accounted for 74%75% of total taxable equivalent revenue. Trust, investment and other servicing fees were $442.5$452.8 million in the quarter, up 24%13% from $357.2$402.1 million in the firstsecond quarter of last year, and represented 60%57% of total taxable equivalent revenue. The increase resulted primarily from the addition of FSG, improved equity markets and new business.

Trust, investment and other servicing fees are generally based on the market value of assets managed, custodied, and administered, the volume of transactions, securities lending volume and spreads, and fees for other services rendered.

Provision and Reserve for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses is the charge to current earnings that is determined by management, through a disciplined credit review process, to be the amount needed to maintain a reserve that is sufficient to absorb probable credit losses that have been identified with specific borrower relationships (specific loss component) and for probable losses that are believed to be inherent in the loan and lease portfolios, unfunded commitments, and standby letters of credit (inherent loss component).
Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements includes a table that details the changes in the reserve for credit losses during the threethree- and six- month periods ended March 31,June 30, 2006 and March 31,June 30, 2005 due to charge-offs, recoveries and the provision for credit losses during the respective periods. The following table shows (i) the specific portion of the reserve, (ii) the allocated portion of the inherent reserve and its components by loan category, and (iii) the unallocated portion of the inherent reserve at June 30, 2006, March 31, 2006, December 31, 2005 and March 31,June 30, 2005.

Specific Component of Reserve.At March 31,June 30, 2006, the specific component of the reserve stood at $19.0$20.0 million compared with $20.3$19.0 million at DecemberMarch 31, 2005.2006. The $1.3$1.0 million decreaseincrease in specific reserves from DecemberMarch 31, 20052006 is due primarily to the reclassification of a full repayment received on a commercialloan to nonperforming loan that was previously fully reserved for.partially offset by principal repayments received.
Allocated Inherent Component of Reserve.The allocated inherent portion of the reserve totaled $97.8 million at June 30, 2006 compared with $96.0 million at March 31, 2006 compared with $91.3 million at December 31, 2005.2006. This component of the reserve increased by $4.7$1.8 million due primarily to the growth in commercial loan volumes and the migration of certain loans to higher risk credit ratings.offset in part by principal repayments received on lower rated loans.
Unallocated Inherent Component of Reserve. The unallocated portion of the inherent loss reserve is based on management’s review of other factors affecting the determination of probable inherent losses, primarily in the commercial portfolio, which are not necessarily captured by the application of historical loss ratios. This portion of the reserve analysis involves the exercise of judgment and reflects considerations such as management’s view that the reserve should have a margin that recognizes the imprecision inherent in the process of estimating probable credit losses. The unallocated inherent portion of the reserve was $24.9$25.7 million at March 31,June 30, 2006.
Other Factors.At March 31,June 30, 2006, the total amount of the two highest risk loan groupings, those rated “7” and “8” (based on Northern Trust’s internal rating scale, which closely parallels that of the banking regulators) was $73$56.5 million of which $27.8$26.9 million was classified as impaired, down from $78$73 million at DecemberMarch 31, 20052006 when $28.6$27.8 million was classified as impaired, and down from $106$87 million at March 31,June 30, 2005 when $32.2$27.7 million was classified as impaired. The majority of the decrease from March 31, 2006 reflects the receipt of principal repayments.

Provision and Reserve for Credit Losses (continued)
Overall Reserve. Management’s evaluation of the factors above resulted in a reserve for credit losses of $139.9$143.5 million at March 31,June 30, 2006. The reserve of $129.3$133.5 million assigned to loans and leases, as a percentage of total loans and leases was .63% at June 30, 2006, compared with .65% at March 31, 2006, compared with .63% at December 31, 2005.2006.
Reserves assigned to unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit, recorded as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet, totaled $10.6$10.0 million at March 31,June 30, 2006, unchangeda decrease of $.6 million from December 31, 2005.the prior quarter.
Provision. The provision for credit losses was $4.0$3.0 million in the firstsecond quarter of 2006 compared with no provision in the prior year quarter. The increase is due primarily to the growth of the commercial loansloan portfolio and the migrationreclassification of certain loansone loan to higher risk credit ratings,nonperforming, partially offset by the full repayment of a nonperforming loan that was previously reserved for.repayments received on lower rated loans.
MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT
As described in the 2005 Financial Annual Report to Shareholders, Northern Trust manages its interest rate risk through measurement techniques which include simulation of earnings, simulation of the economic value of equity, and gap analysis. Also, as part of its risk management activities, it regularly measures the risk of loss associated with foreign currency positions using a value at risk model.
Based on this continuing evaluation process, Northern Trust’s interest rate risk position and the value at risk associated with the foreign exchange trading portfolio have not changed significantly since December 31, 2005.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
The annual meeting of the stockholders of Northern Trust Corporation was held on April 18, 2006 for the purposes of (i) electing 13 Directors to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders, (ii) ratifying the appointment of KPMG LLP as the Corporation’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2006 fiscal year, (iii) approving an amendment to the Corporation’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate cumulative voting to allow for adoption of a majority vote standard in the election of directors, and (iv) acting upon a stockholder proposal relating to charitable contributions, if properly presented at the annual meeting. Proxies for the meeting were solicited pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and there was no solicitation in opposition to management’s nominees.
All of management’s nominees for Director as listed in the proxy statement were elected by the votes set forth below.
