NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

June 30, 2007

1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Zions Bancorporation (“the Parent”) and its majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively “the Company,” “we,” “our,” “us”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected in future periods. The balance sheet at December 31, 2006 is from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Zions Bancorporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

The Company provides a full range of banking and related services through banking subsidiaries in ten Western and Southwestern states as follows: Zions First National Bank (“Zions Bank”), in Utah and Idaho; California Bank & Trust (“CB&T”); Amegy Corporation (“Amegy”) and its subsidiary, Amegy Bank, in Texas; National Bank of Arizona (“NBA”), in Arizona and California; Nevada State Bank (“NSB”); Vectra Bank Colorado (“Vectra”), in Colorado and New Mexico; The Commerce Bank of Washington (“TCBW”); and The Commerce Bank of Oregon (“TCBO”).

2.    CERTAIN RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 159,The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates. The fair value option may be applied instrument by instrument with certain exceptions and is applied generally on an irrevocable basis to the particular instrument. SFAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company will adopt SFAS 159 effective January 1, 2008. Management is currently evaluating the impact this Statement may have on the Company’s financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Statement impacts other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements; however, it does not expand the use of fair value measurements in any new circumstances. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will adopt SFAS 157 effective January 1, 2008. Management is currently evaluating the impact this Statement may have on the Company’s financial statements.

Additional accounting pronouncements recently adopted are discussed where applicable in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

3.    ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

In June 2007, Amegy Bank of Texas entered into a definitive merger agreement to acquire for cash Intercontinental Bank Shares Corporation (“Intercon”), located in San Antonio, Texas. The acquisition is expected to close in the third quarter of 2007 and is estimated to add approximately $53 million in loans and $96 million in deposits to the Company’s balance sheet.

On January 17, 2007, we completed the acquisition of The Stockmen’s Bancorp, Inc. (“Stockmen’s”), headquartered in Kingman, Arizona. As of the date of acquisition, Stockmen’s had approximately $1.2 billion of total assets, $1.1 billion of total deposits, and a total of 43 branches – 32 in Arizona and 11 in central California. Consideration of approximately $206.1 million consisted of 2.6 million shares of the Company’s common stock plus a small amount of cash paid for fractional shares. Stockmen’s parent company merged into the Parent and Stockmen’s banking subsidiary merged into NBA. As of June 30, 2007, the acquisition had resulted in approximately $114.2 million of goodwill, which is subject to adjustment as the purchase price allocation is finalized during the year following the acquisition. In June 2007, NBA entered into an agreement to sell the 11 California branches. The sale is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2007 and will include approximately $171 million of loans and $209 million of deposits.

In January 2007, Zions Bank sold the Grant Hatch insurance agency and certain other insurance assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the net pretax gain recognized in other noninterest income was approximately $2.9 million.

4.    LONG-TERM DEBT

On June 6, 2007, under provisions of the borrowing agreements, the Company redeemed the entire $19.7 million net par amount of the 11.75% trust preferred securities.

5.    INCOME TAXES

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”),Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold for the financial statement recognition of uncertain tax positions.

We have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain tax positions primarily for various state tax contingencies in several jurisdictions. As a result of adopting FIN 48, we reduced this liability by approximately $10.4 million at January 1, 2007 and recognized a cumulative effect adjustment as an increase to retained earnings. Our total gross unrecognized tax benefits subsequent to this adjustment were approximately $46.3 million at January 1, 2007. Of this amount, approximately $25.9 million (net of the federal benefit on state issues) relates to unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. Gross unrecognized tax benefits that may decrease during the 12 months subsequent to June 30, 2007 could range up to approximately $22.6 million as a result of the resolution of various state tax positions.

Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are included in income taxes in the statement of income and amounted to approximately $1.0 million on a gross basis for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Gross accrued interest and penalties were approximately $8.3 million at January 1, 2007 and $9.3 million at June 30, 2007.

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions. In general, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2003 for federal returns and prior to 2000 for state returns.

During the first quarter of 2007, the Company surrendered certain bank-owned life insurance contracts and incurred taxes and penalties of approximately $2.9 million, which were included in income taxes in the statement of income.

From May 4-7, 2007, the Company successfully conducted an auction of its patent-pending Employee Stock Option Appreciation Rights Securities (“ESOARS”). As allowed by SFAS No. 123R,Share-Based Payment, the Company used the results of that auction to value its employee stock options issued on May 4. The value established was $12.06 per option, which the Company estimates is approximately 14% below its Black-Scholes model valuation on that date. The Company recorded the related estimated future settlement obligation of ESOARS as a liability in the balance sheet.

7.    GUARANTEES

The following are guarantees issued by the Company(in thousands):

	June 30, 2007		December 31, 2006
Standby letters of credit:
Financial	$	1,172,531	$	1,157,205
Performance		347,723		330,056
	$	1,520,254	$	1,487,261

The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 contains further information on the nature of these letters of credit along with their terms and collateral requirements. At June 30, 2007, the carrying value recorded by the Company as a liability for these guarantees was $5.5 million.

As of June 30, 2007, the Parent has guaranteed approximately $307.5 million of debt issued by affiliated trusts issuing trust preferred securities.

Zions Bank provides a liquidity facility (“Liquidity Facility”) for a fee to Lockhart Funding, LLC (“Lockhart”), a qualifying special-purpose entity (“QSPE”) securities conduit. Lockhart purchases floating rate U.S. Government and AAA-rated securities with funds from the issuance of commercial paper. Zions Bank also provides interest rate hedging support and administrative and investment advisory services for a fee. Pursuant to the Liquidity Facility contract, Zions Bank is required to purchase securities from Lockhart to provide funds for Lockhart to repay maturing commercial paper upon Lockhart’s inability to access the commercial paper market, or upon a commercial paper market disruption as specified in governing documents for Lockhart. Pursuant to the governing documents, including the liquidity agreement, if any security in Lockhart is downgraded below AA-, Zions Bank must either 1) place its letter of credit on the security, 2) obtain credit enhancement from a third party, or 3) purchase the security from Lockhart at book value. At any given time, the maximum commitment of Zions Bank is the book value of Lockhart’s securities portfolio, which is not allowed to exceed the size of the Liquidity Facility commitment. At June 30, 2007, the book value of Lockhart’s securities portfolio was $3.5 billion, which approximated market value, and the size of the Liquidity Facility commitment was $6.12 billion. No amounts were outstanding under the Liquidity Facility at June 30, 2007.

The FASB is pursuing an alternative to the derecognition model in SFAS No. 140,Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. Alternatives to the current derecognition requirements have been collectively referred to as the Linked Presentation model. This model would eliminate the concept of a QSPE and, if certain criteria are met, allow for the linked presentation of the transferred assets and related liabilities within a single asset caption on the face of the balance sheet. It is too early in the process to determine what, if any, impact this would have on the Company’s securitization program.

9.    OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION

We manage our operations and prepare management reports and other information with a primary focus on geographical area. As of June 30, 2007, we operate eight community/regional banks in distinct geographical areas. Performance assessment and resource allocation are based upon this geographical structure. Zions Bank operates 114 branches in Utah, 24 in Idaho, and one foreign branch in the Grand Cayman Islands. CB&T operates 91 branches in California. Amegy operates 80 branches in Texas and one foreign branch in the Grand Cayman Islands. NBA operates 77 branches in Arizona and 11 in California. NSB operates 74 branches in Nevada. Vectra operates 40 branches in Colorado and one branch in New Mexico. TCBW operates one branch in the state of Washington. TCBO operates one branch in Oregon. The operating segment identified as “Other” includes the Parent, certain nonbank financial service and financial technology subsidiaries, other smaller nonbank operating units, TCBO, and eliminations of transactions between segments.

The accounting policies of the individual operating segments are the same as those of the Company. Transactions between operating segments are primarily conducted at fair value, resulting in profits that are eliminated for reporting consolidated results of operations. Operating segments pay for centrally provided services based upon estimated or actual usage of those services.

The Company specifically disclaims any obligation to update any factors or to publicly announce the result of revisions to any of the forward-looking statements included herein to reflect future events or developments.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES

The Company has made no significant changes in its critical accounting policies and significant estimates from those disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, except as noted below.

Securitization Transactions

During the second quarter of 2007, the Company updated certain valuation assumptions for retained beneficial interests under the rules contained in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 99-20,Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, (“EITF 99-20”). These rules require the Company to periodically update its assumptions used to compute estimated cash flows for its retained beneficial interests and to compare the net present value of these cash flows to the carrying value. The Company complies with EITF 99-20 by evaluating and updating its default assumption as compared to the historical credit losses and the credit loss expectation of the portfolio and its prepayment speed assumption as compared to the historical prepayment speeds and prepayment rate expectation.

The Company currently has seven small business securitizations and the retained beneficial interest for certain securitizations required impairment charges at June 30, 2007 following the application of EITF 99-20. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment loss on the retained beneficial interests of $5.1 million before income taxes resulting in a $3.2 million reduction of net income or $(0.03) per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The primary factors that influenced the impairment of the retained beneficial interests were higher prepayment speeds than previously estimated on the most recent securitization and higher estimated funding interest rates. The additional second quarter impairment charges increased the year to date impairment charges to $9.3 million before income taxes resulting in a $5.7 million reduction of net income or $(0.05) per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

Employee Stock Option Expense

From May 4-7, 2007, the Company successfully conducted an auction of its patent-pending ESOARS securities. As allowed by SFAS No. 123R,Share-Based Payment, the Company used the results of that auction to value its employee stock options issued on May 4. The value established was $12.06 per option, which the Company estimates is approximately 14% below its Black-Scholes model valuation on that date. The Company recorded the related estimated future settlement obligation of ESOARS as a liability in the balance sheet.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Zions Bancorporation (“the Parent”) and subsidiaries (collectively “Zions,” “the Company,” “we,” “our”) reported net earnings applicable to common shareholders of $155.6 million or $1.43 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2007 compared with $145.3 million or $1.35 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2006. The annualized return on average assets was 1.33% for both the second quarters of 2007 and 2006. For the same comparative periods, the annualized return on average common equity was 12.50% compared to 13.20%. The efficiency ratio for the second quarter of 2007 was 56.3% compared to 57.4% for the second quarter of 2006.

18

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Net earnings applicable to common shareholders for the first six months of 2007 was $305.3 million or $2.78 per diluted share, compared to $282.9 million or $2.62 per diluted share for the first six months of 2006. For both the first six months of 2007 and 2006, the annualized return on average assets was 1.32%. For the same comparative periods, the annualized return on average common equity was 12.38% compared to 13.06%. The efficiency ratio for the first six months of 2007 was 57.0% compared to 57.8% for 2006.

The Company completed its acquisition of The Stockmen’s Bancorp, Inc. effective January 17, 2007. Comparisons to 2006 include the impact of this acquisition.

Net Interest Income, Margin and Interest Rate Spreads

Taxable-equivalent net interest income for the second quarter of 2007 increased 7.6% to $476.1 million compared with $442.3 million for the comparable period of 2006. The increase reflects the significant increase in earning assets driven by strong loan growth over much of the last year. The incremental tax rate used for calculating all taxable-equivalent adjustments is 35% for all periods presented.

The Company’s net interest margin was 4.53% for the second quarter of 2007 compared to 4.51% for the first quarter of 2007 and 4.64% for the second quarter of 2006. The margin in the second quarter of 2007 improved by 2 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2007 driven in part by growth in average core deposits and a favorable mix shift on the asset side of the balance sheet (continued shrinking of the securities portfolio offset by the loan growth). The margin compression for the second quarter of 2007 compared to the second quarter of 2006 resulted from competitive pricing pressures, a continued shift in the interest-bearing deposit mix to more expensive products, and a decline in noninterest-bearing demand deposits.

We have experienced fairly steady pricing pressure on deposits over the past several quarters due to a variety of factors, including perceived returns on alternative investment and savings opportunities and generally strong competition. Reflecting this pricing pressure and the change in our funding mix toward higher rate deposits and other funding sources, the average rate paid this quarter on interest-bearing funds increased 51 basis points from the second quarter of 2006. The yield on average earning assets increased 32 basis points for the second quarter of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. The Company also continues to experience strong competition in loan pricing.

As a result of these funding and loan pricing pressures, the spread on average interest-bearing funds for the second quarter of 2007 was 3.62%, unchanged from 3.62% for the first quarter of 2007 and down from 3.81% for the second quarter of 2006. We expect that the net interest spread may continue to be under pressure in the next few quarters due to the persistence of these factors.

The Company expects to continue its efforts to maintain a slightly “asset-sensitive” position with regard to interest rate risk. However, our estimates of the Company’s actual position are highly dependent upon changes in both short-term and long-term interest rates, modeling assumptions, and the actions of competitors and customers in response to those changes. During the second quarter of 2007, longer-term interest rates increased while short-term rates were relatively stable. Our net interest margin increased 2 basis points while our net interest spread remained unchanged, suggesting that during the quarter our balance sheet interest rate sensitivity was approximately neutral. See “Interest Rate Risk” for further information.

Provisions for Credit Losses

The provision for loan losses is the amount of expense that, based on our judgment, is required to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an adequate level based upon the inherent risks in the portfolio. The provision for unfunded lending commitments is used to maintain the allowance for unfunded lending commitments at an adequate level. See “Credit Risk Management” for more information on how we determine the appropriate level for the allowances for loan and lease losses and unfunded lending commitments.

The provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2007 was $17.8 million compared to $17.0 million for the same period in 2006. On an annualized basis, the provision was 0.20% of average loans for the second quarter of 2007 and 0.21% for the second quarter of 2006. The provision for unfunded lending commitments was $1.2 million for the second quarter of 2007 compared to $(0.2) million for the second quarter of 2006. From period to period, the amounts of unfunded lending commitments may be subject to sizeable fluctuation due to changes in the timing and volume of loan originations and fundings. The related provision will generally reflect these fluctuations. When combined, the provisions for credit losses for the second quarter of 2007 were $19.0 million compared to $16.8 million for the second quarter of 2006. The increased provision reflects some softening in asset quality indicators.

The provision for loan losses for the first six months of 2007 was $26.9 million, 14.8% lower than the $31.5 million provision for the first six months of 2006. The decreased loan loss provision for the first six months of 2007 compared to 2006 is primarily impacted by lower loan growth in 2007 compared to the first six months of 2006. The provision for unfunded lending commitments was $1.5 million for the first half of 2007 compared to $(0.5) million for the first half of 2006.

Noninterest Income

For the second quarter of 2007, noninterest income increased 2.8% to $141.3 million compared to $137.5 million for the second quarter of 2006.

Service charges and fees on deposit accounts increased $5.1 million or 12.6% for the second quarter of 2007 compared to the second quarter of 2006. The increase was mainly due to the impact of fee increases and the acquisition of Stockmen’s.

Loan sales and servicing income decreased $6.4 million for the second quarter of 2007 compared to the second quarter of 2006. The decline primarily results from a pretax impairment charge of $5.1 million on retained interests from certain previous small business loan securitizations due mainly to accelerated prepayment speeds and lower amounts of servicing fees based on lower balances of serviced loans. It is possible that additional impairment charges may be incurred if actual prepayment speeds exceed current estimates. Factors influencing the prepayment speed include the prepayment penalties, which decrease over time and the shape of the yield curve at the time the prepayment penalties are eliminated. As of June 30, 2007, the Company had $59.0 million of retained interests in small business securitizations recorded on the balance sheet that are exposed to additional future impairments due to the above mentioned factors.

Other service charges, commissions and fees for the second quarter increased $7.7 million or 18.4% compared to the second quarter of 2006. The increase was primarily driven by higher public finance fees, loan fees, debit card fees, and cash management fees offset by decreased insurance income of $1.1 million resulting from the previously announced sale of the Company’s Grant Hatch insurance agency and certain other insurance assets completed during the first quarter of 2007.

Trust and wealth management income for the second quarter increased $1.8 million or 25.2% compared to the second quarter of 2006. The increase was primarily driven by higher fee income from our Contango wealth management and associated trust business.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Income from securities conduit decreased $2.5 million or 29.7% for the second quarter of 2007 compared to the second quarter of 2006. This servicing income represents fees we receive from Lockhart Funding, LLC (“Lockhart”), a “qualifying special-purpose entity” securities conduit, in return for liquidity management, an interest rate agreement, and administrative services that Zions Bank provides to Lockhart in accordance with a servicing agreement. The book value of the Lockhart’s securities portfolio declined to $3.5 billion at June 30, 2007 from $5.0 billion at June 30, 2006. We expect that both the income from the Lockhart conduit and the book value of the Lockhart portfolio will decrease over time unless new securities are purchased to replace the maturing securities.

Fixed income securities gains for the second quarter of 2007 were de minimis compared to $5.2 million for the second quarter of 2006.

Noninterest income for the first six months of 2007 of $286.8 million increased 7.8% from $266.0 million for the first six months of 2006. Explanations previously provided for the quarterly changes also apply to the year-to-date changes. Additional explanations of variances follow.

Loan sales and servicing income decreased $12.6 million for the first six months of 2007 compared to the same period of 2006. The decline primarily results from pretax impairment charges of $9.3 million on retained interests from certain previous small business loan securitizations.

Dividends and other investment income increased $3.2 million or 16.8% for the first six months of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. The increased income is primarily due to higher bank-owned life insurance income of $1.3 million and higher income from other equity investments of $1.3 million.

Net equity securities gains were $5.3 million for the first six months of 2007 compared with net losses of $1.2 million for the same period in 2006. Net gains for the first six months of 2007 included net gains on venture capital equity investments of $2.8 million and a $2.5 million gain on the sale of an investment in a community bank. Net losses for the first six months of 2006 included a $3.4 million loss on the sale of a mortgage mutual fund investment, a $0.5 million gain on venture capital equity investments, and $1.7 million of gains from the sale of other equity securities.

Other noninterest income increased $2.8 million compared to the first six months of 2006. The increase is mainly due to a pretax gain of approximately $2.9 million from the sale of the Company’s Grant Hatch insurance agency and certain other insurance assets during the first quarter of 2007.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2007 was $347.6 million, an increase of 4.4% over the $333.0 million for the second quarter of 2006. The Company’s efficiency ratio was 56.3% for the second quarter of 2007 compared to 57.4% for the same period of 2006. The improvement in the efficiency ratio reflects higher revenues relative to the Company’s cost structure, and lower merger related expense.

Salaries and employee benefits increased $13.0 million or 7.0% compared to the second quarter of 2006. The increase from the prior year was due to salary increases, increased staffing levels in selected areas, and the impact of the Stockmen’s acquisition.

Legal and professional services increased $2.2 million or 24.8% compared to the second quarter of 2006. The increase is mostly driven by costs related to the conversion of CB&T to Zions’ common systems and other system improvements.

Merger related expense decreased $7.4 million or 83.3% compared to the second quarter of 2006. The decrease is mainly due to the completion of the Amegy system conversion during the second quarter of 2006.

Noninterest expense for the first six months of 2007 of $699.6 million increased 6.4% from $657.5 million for the first six months of 2006. The Company’s efficiency ratio was 57.0% for the first six months of 2007 compared to 57.8% for the same period of 2006. Explanations previously provided for the quarterly changes also apply to the year-to-date changes. Additional explanations of variances follow.

Salaries and employee benefits for the first half of 2007 increased $32.8 million or 8.8% compared to the same period in 2006. The increase is due to salary increases, increased staffing levels in selected areas, and the impact of the Stockmen’s acquisition.

Other noninterest expense for the first six months of 2007 increased $7.5 million or 7.0% compared to the first six months of 2006. This expense includes a $4.0 million write-down on repossessed equipment; this equipment was collateral on an equipment lease on which we recorded a loan loss related to an alleged accounting fraud at a water bottling company during the fourth quarter of 2006.

At June 30, 2007, the Company had 11,048 full-time equivalent employees, 514 domestic branches, and 600 ATMs, compared to 10,146 full-time equivalent employees, 470 domestic branches, and 577 ATMs at June 30, 2006.

Income Taxes

The Company’s income tax expense increased to $86.1 million for the second quarter of 2007 compared to $78.8 million for the same period in 2006. The Company’s effective income tax rates, including the effects of minority interest, were 35.1% and 35.2% for the second quarter of 2007 and 2006, respectively. The effective income tax rates for the first six months of 2007 and 2006 were 35.9% and 35.3%, respectively. The higher year to date tax rate is due to taxes incurred in the first quarter for the one time redemption of bank-owned life insurance policies. As discussed in previous filings, the Company has received federal income tax credits under the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund set up by the U.S. Government that will be recognized over a seven-year period from the year of investment. The effect of these tax credits was to reduce income tax expense by $2.8 million and $2.1 million for the first six months of 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”),Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. As a result of adopting this new accounting guidance, the Company reduced its existing liability for unrecognized tax benefits by approximately $10.4 million at January 1, 2007 and recognized a cumulative effect adjustment as an increase to retained earnings.

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS

As previously disclosed, the Company completed its acquisition of The Stockmen’s Bancorp, Inc. effective January 17, 2007. Certain comparisons to 2006 include the impact of this acquisition.

Interest-Earning Assets

Interest-earning assets are those assets that have interest rates or yields associated with them and consist of money market investments, securities and loans.

Average interest-earning assets increased 11.3% to $41.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $37.7 billion for the same period in 2006. Interest-earning assets comprised 87.8% of total average assets for the first six months of 2007, compared with 87.1% for the comparable period of 2006.

Average money market investments, consisting of interest-bearing deposits, federal funds sold and security resell agreements, increased 8.8% to $537.1 million for the first six months of 2007 compared to $493.4 million for the first six months of 2006. Average securities decreased 6.1% for the first six months of 2007 when compared to the same period in 2006. Average net loans and leases for the first six months of 2007 increased 14.7% when compared to the same period in 2006.

Mortgage/asset-backed and other debt securities at June 30, 2007 include approximately $1.7 billion of collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”). These CDOs consist entirely of securities collateralized by trust preferred and similar debt obligations. Some of the trust preferred securities in these CDOs were issued by banks, insurance companies, or real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) that have exposure to the subprime market. We do not have any CDOs collateralized directly by subprime related mortgage assets. See further discussion of certain CDOs held by Lockhart in “Liquidity Risk Management.”

We review investment securities on an ongoing basis for other than temporary impairment taking into consideration current market conditions, offering prices, trends and volatility of earnings, current analysts’ evaluations, our ability and intent to hold investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, and other factors. Our review did not result in an adjustment for other than temporary impairment during the quarter ended June 30, 2007.

The investment securities portfolio includes $1.0 billion of nonrated, fixed income securities, essentially unchanged from the balances at both December 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006. These securities include nonrated municipal securities as well as nonrated, asset-backed subordinated tranches.

Loan Portfolio

Net loans and leases at June 30, 2007 were $36.8 billion, an annualized increase of 12.2% from December 31, 2006 and an increase of 12.6% over the balance at June 30, 2006.

The loan growth noted above for commercial and commercial real estate lending principally resulted from “organic” loan growth at Zions Bank, Amegy Bank of Texas, Vectra Bank Colorado and from the impact of the loans acquired from the Stockmen’s acquisition. Second quarter organic loan growth increased over the first quarter 2007 loan growth; however loan growth has slowed compared to growth experienced during 2006 due particularly to a continued reduction in the rate of residential housing construction and development lending in California, Arizona and Nevada.

Sold Loans Being Serviced

Zions performs loan servicing on both loans that it holds in its portfolios and also on loans that are owned by third party investor-owned trusts. The Company has used asset securitizations to sell loans and in many instances provides the servicing on these loans as a condition of the sale.

	Sold loans being serviced				Residual interests on balance sheet at June 30, 2007

Securitized loans being serviced for others totaled $2.2 billion at June 30, 2007, $2.6 billion at December 31, 2006, and $3.0 billion at June 30, 2006. The Company did not complete a small business loans securitization during 2006 or the first six months of 2007 and also discontinued selling new home equity credit line originations during the fourth quarter of 2006.

As of June 30, 2007, the Company had recorded assets, comprised of subordinated retained interests and capitalized residual cash flows, in the amount of $289 million in connection with the $2.2 billion of sold loans being serviced. As is a common practice with securitized transactions, the Company had retained subordinated interests in the securitized assets that totaled $217 million at June 30, 2007, which represented junior positions to the other investors in the trust securities. The capitalized residual cash flows, which are sometimes referred to as “excess servicing,” of $72 million primarily represent the present value of the excess cash flows that have been projected over the lives of the sold loans.

As of June 30, 2007, conforming long-term first mortgage real estate loans being serviced for others were $1,218 million, compared with $1,251 million at December 31, 2006 and $1,235 million at June 30, 2006.

Bank-owned life insurance investments declined $39 million during the first six months of 2007 mainly due to the Company surrendering three bank-owned life insurance contracts during the first quarter. The increase in cash surrender value of the remaining policies is not taxable since it is anticipated that the bank-owned life insurance will be held until the eventual death of the insured employees.

SBIC investments declined $24 million during the first six months of 2007 mainly due to the sale of a $23 million venture investment.

Deposits

Average total deposits for the first six months of 2007 increased 10.8% compared to the same period in 2006, with interest-bearing deposits increasing 15.7% and noninterest-bearing deposits decreasing 0.7%.

Core deposits at June 30, 2007 increased 4.1%, annualized, compared to the December 31, 2006 balance and 4.9% compared to the balance at June 30, 2006.

The mix of deposits reflects the decline in demand deposits during the first six months of 2007 as demand, savings and money market deposits comprised 72.2% of total deposits at the end of the second quarter, compared with 74.0% and 78.1% as of December 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006, respectively.

Management expects that deposit growth may continue to lag behind loan growth, and that a portion of future loan growth may be funded from higher cost liabilities.

RISK ELEMENTS

Since risk is inherent in substantially all of the Company’s operations, management of risk is an integral part of its operations and is also a key determinant of its overall performance. We apply various strategies to reduce the risks to which the Company’s operations are exposed, including credit, interest rate and market, liquidity and operational risks.

Credit Risk Management

Credit risk is managed centrally through a uniform credit policy and credit administration and credit exam functions at the parent. Effective management of credit risk is essential in maintaining a safe, sound and profitable financial institution. We have structured the organization to separate the lending function from the credit administration function, which has added strength to the control over and the independent evaluation of credit activities. Formal loan policies and procedures provide the Company with a framework for consistent underwriting and a basis for sound credit decisions. In addition, the Company has a well-defined set of standards for evaluating its loan portfolio, and management utilizes a comprehensive loan grading system to determine the risk potential in the portfolio. Further, an independent, internal credit examination department periodically conducts examinations of the Company’s lending departments. These examinations are designed to review credit quality, adequacy of documentation, appropriate loan grading administration and compliance with lending policies, and reports thereon are submitted to the Credit Review Committee of the Board of Directors.

Both the credit policy and the credit examination functions are managed centrally. Each affiliate bank is permitted to modify corporate credit policy to be more conservative; however, corporate approval must be obtained if a bank wishes to create a more liberal policy. Historically, only a limited number of such modifications have been approved. This entire process has been designed to place an emphasis on strong underwriting standards and early detection of potential problem credits so that action plans can be developed and implemented on a timely basis to mitigate any potential losses.

Another aspect of the Company’s credit risk management strategy is to pursue the diversification of the loan portfolio. The Company maintains a diversified loan portfolio with some emphasis in real estate. As set forth in the following table, at June 30, 2007 no single loan type exceeded 24.2% of the Company’s total loan portfolio.

We believe the Company’s potential risk from concentration in owner occupied commercial loans is reduced by the emphasis we place on lending programs sponsored by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”). On these types of loans, the SBA bears a major portion of the credit risk. In addition, the Company attempts to avoid the risk of an undue concentration of credits in a particular industry, trade group, property type, or with an individual customer or counterparty. The majority of the Company’s business activity is with customers located within the geographical footprint of its banking subsidiaries.

The Company does not pursue subprime or alternative (“Alt-A”) residential mortgage lending and has little or no direct exposure to that market.

A more comprehensive discussion of our credit risk management is contained in Zions’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. In addition, as discussed in the following sections, the Company’s level of credit quality continued to be strong during the second quarter of 2007 compared to historical standards. While we see no significant signs of deterioration in credit quality, we believe that we will not be able to maintain this level of credit quality indefinitely.

Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans, restructured loans, other real estate owned, and other nonperforming assets. Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status when the loan is 90 days or more past due as to principal or interest, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Consumer loans are not normally placed on nonaccrual status, inasmuch as they are generally charged off when they become 120 days past due. Loans occasionally may be restructured to provide a reduction or deferral of interest or principal payments. This generally occurs when the financial condition of a borrower deteriorates to the point that the borrower needs to be given temporary or permanent relief from the original contractual terms of the loan. Other real estate owned is acquired primarily through or in lieu of foreclosure on loans secured by real estate.

Total nonperforming assets increased 16.3% as of June 30, 2007 compared with the balance at December 31, 2006.

Included in nonaccrual loans are loans that we have determined to be impaired. Loans, other than those included in large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans, are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled interest payments. The amount of the impairment is measured based on either the present value of expected cash flows, the observable market value of the loan, or the fair value of the collateral securing the loan.

The Company’s total recorded investment in impaired loans was $53 million at June 30, 2007, compared with $47 million at December 31, 2006 and $32 million at June 30, 2006. Estimated losses on impaired loans are included in the allowance for loan losses. At June 30, 2007, the allowance for loan losses included $4 million for impaired loans with a recorded investment of $29 million. At December 31, 2006, the allowance included $6 million for impaired loans with an $18 million recorded investment, and at June 30, 2006 the allowance included $5 million for impaired loans with a $15 million recorded investment.

The amount of accruing loans past due 90 days or more decreased to $48 million at June 30, 2007 from $57 million at March 31, 2007, and increased from $29 million at June 30, 2006.

Allowance and Reserve for Credit Losses

Allowance for Loan Losses – The allowance for loan losses is established for estimated losses in the loan portfolio outstanding at the balance sheet date. In analyzing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, we utilize a comprehensive loan grading system to determine the risk potential in the portfolio and also consider the results of independent internal credit reviews. To determine the adequacy of the allowance, the Company’s loan and lease portfolio is broken into segments based on loan type.

For commercial loans, we use historical loss experience factors by loan segment, adjusted for changes in trends and conditions, to help determine an indicated allowance for each portfolio segment. These factors are evaluated and updated using migration analysis techniques and other considerations based on the makeup of the specific segment. These other considerations include:

• volumes and trends of delinquencies;

• levels of nonaccruals, repossessions and bankruptcies;

• trends in criticized and classified loans;

• expected losses on real estate secured loans;

• new credit products and policies;

• economic conditions;

• concentrations of credit risk; and

• experience and abilities of the Company’s lending personnel.

The allowance for consumer loans is determined using historically developed experience rates at which loans migrate from one delinquency level to the next higher level. Using average roll rates for the most recent twelve-month period and comparing projected losses to actual loss experience, the model estimates expected losses in dollars for the forecasted period. By refreshing the model with updated data, it is able to project losses for a new twelve-month period each month, segmenting the portfolio into nine product groupings with similar risk profiles. This methodology is an accepted industry practice, and the Company believes it has a sufficient volume of information to produce reliable projections.

The methodology used by Amegy to estimate its allowance for loan losses has not yet been conformed to the process used by the other affiliate banks. However, the process used by Amegy is not significantly different than the process used by our other affiliate banks.

The Company has initiated a comprehensive review of its allowance for loan losses methodology with a view toward updating and conforming this methodology across all of its banking subsidiaries.

Net loan and lease charge-offs, along with their annualized ratios to average loans and leases, are shown in the preceding table for the periods presented. The same respective amounts for the second quarter of 2007 were $8.7 million and 0.10%.

The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2007 increased $15.1 million from the level at year-end 2006. The amount of the allowance indicated for criticized and classified commercial loans increased $8.4 million. Criticized and classified loans increased slightly for both the commercial and commercial real estate portfolios. The level of the allowance for noncriticized and nonclassified commercial loans increased $9.0 million, mainly the result of $2.1 billion of new commercial and commercial real estate loan growth. The allowance for consumer loans decreased $2.3 million when compared to December 31, 2006 mainly driven by a decline in consumer loan delinquencies and its effect in determining the allowance in the roll rate model.

Reserve for Unfunded Lending Commitments– The Company also estimates a reserve for potential losses associated with off-balance sheet commitments and standby letters of credit. We determine the reserve for unfunded lending commitments using a process that is similar to the one we use for commercial loans. Based on historical experience, we have developed experience-based loss factors that we apply to the Company’s unfunded lending commitments to estimate the potential for loss in that portfolio. These factors are generated from tracking commitments that become funded and develop into problem loans.

The following table sets forth the reserve for unfunded lending commitments:

(In millions)	Six Months Ended June 30, 2007		Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2006		Six Months Ended June 30, 2006

Interest Rate and Market Risk Management

Interest rate and market risk are managed centrally. Interest rate risk is the potential for loss resulting from adverse changes in the level of interest rates on the Company’s net interest income. Market risk is the potential for loss arising from adverse changes in the prices of fixed income securities, equity securities, other earning assets and derivative financial instruments as a result of changes in interest rates or other factors. As a financial institution that engages in transactions involving an array of financial products, the Company is exposed to both interest rate risk and market risk.

Interest Rate Risk – Interest rate risk is one of the most significant risks to which the Company is regularly exposed. In general, our goal in managing interest rate risk is to have the net interest margin increase slightly in a rising interest rate environment. We refer to this goal as being slightly “asset-sensitive.” This approach is based on our belief that in a rising interest rate environment, the market cost of equity, or implied rate at which future earnings are discounted, would also tend to rise.

We attempt to minimize the impact of changing interest rates on net interest income primarily through the use of interest rate swaps, and by avoiding large exposures to fixed rate interest-earning assets that have significant negative convexity. The prime lending rate and the London Interbank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) curves are the primary indices used for pricing the Company’s loans. The interest rates paid on deposit accounts are set by individual banks so as to be competitive in each local market.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

We monitor interest rate risk through the use of two complementary measurement methods: duration of equity and income simulation. In the duration of equity method, we measure the expected changes in the market values of equity in response to changes in interest rates. In the income simulation method, we analyze the expected changes in income in response to changes in interest rates. For income simulation, Company policy requires that interest sensitive income from a static balance sheet is expected to decline by no more than 10% during one year if rates were to immediately rise or fall in parallel by 200 basis points.

As of the dates indicated, the following table shows the Company’s estimated range of duration of equity and percentage change in interest sensitive income, based on a static balance sheet, in the first year after the rate change if interest rates were to sustain an immediate parallel change of 200 basis points; the “low” and “high” results differ based on the assumed speed of repricing of administered-rate deposits (money market, interest-on-checking, and savings):

	June 30, 2007		December 31, 2006
	Low	High	Low	High
Duration of equity:
Range (in years)
Base case	0.9	2.5	–	1.6
Increase interest rates by 200 bp	1.6	3.2	0.8	2.4
Income simulation – change in interest sensitive income:
Increase interest rates by 200 bp	-2.3%	0.2%	-0.9%	1.5%
Decrease interest rates by 200 bp	-2.1%	0.3%	-3.6%	-1.3%

As discussed previously under the section, “Net Interest Income, Margin and Interest Rate Spreads,” the Company believes that in recent quarters, the dynamic balance sheet changes with regard to changes in the mix of deposits and other funding sources have tended to have a somewhat larger effect on the net interest spread and net interest margin than has the Company’s interest rate risk position.

Market Risk – Fixed Income – The Company engages in the trading of municipal and corporate securities. This trading exposes the Company to a risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the prices of these fixed income securities held by the Company.

At June 30, 2007, the Company had $22.8 million of trading account assets and $28.5 million of securities sold, not yet purchased compared with $63.4 million and $70.6 million of trading assets and $176.0 million and $27.4 million of securities sold, not yet purchased at December 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006, respectively. The higher securities sold, not yet purchased balance as of December 31, 2006 is related to an Amegy Bank sweep product.

Market Risk – Equity Investments – Through its equity investment activities, the Company owns equity securities that are publicly traded and subject to fluctuations in their market prices or values. In addition, the Company owns equity securities in companies that are not publicly traded and that are accounted for under cost, fair value, equity, or full consolidation methods of accounting, depending upon the Company’s ownership position and degree of involvement in influencing the investees’ affairs. In either case, the value of the Company’s investment is subject to fluctuation. Since the market prices or values associated with these securities may fall below the Company’s investment costs, the Company is exposed to the possibility of loss. These equity investments are approved, monitored and evaluated by the Company’s Equity Investment Committee.

The Company generally conducts minority investing in prepublic venture capital companies in which it does not have strategic involvement, through four funds collectively referred to as Wasatch Venture Funds (“Wasatch”). Wasatch screens investment opportunities and makes investment decisions based on its assessment of business prospects and potential returns. After an investment is made, Wasatch actively monitors the performance of each company in which it has invested, and often has representation on the board of directors of the company.

In addition to the program described above, Amegy has in place an alternative investments program. These investments are primarily directed towards equity buyout and mezzanine funds with a key strategy of deriving ancillary commercial banking business from the portfolio companies. Early stage venture capital funds are not part of the strategy since the underlying companies are typically not credit worthy.

The Company also, from time to time, either starts and funds businesses or makes significant investments in companies of strategic interest. These investments may result in either minority or majority ownership positions, and usually give board representation to Zions or its subsidiaries. These strategic investments generally are in companies that are financial services or financial technologies providers.

A more comprehensive discussion of the Company’s interest rate and market risk management is contained in Zions’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Liquidity Risk Management

Liquidity is managed centrally for both the Parent and the bank subsidiaries. The Parent’s cash requirements consist primarily of debt service, investment in and advances to subsidiaries, operating expenses, income taxes, dividends to shareholders and share repurchases. The Parent’s cash needs are routinely met through dividends from its subsidiaries, investment income, and subsidiaries’ proportionate share of current income taxes, management and other fees, bank lines, equity contributed through the exercise of stock options, commercial paper, and long-term debt and equity issuances.

Operational cash flows, while constituting a funding source for the Company, are not large enough to provide funding in the amounts that fulfill the needs of the Parent and the bank subsidiaries. For the first six months of 2007, operations contributed $306 million toward these needs. As a result, the Company utilizes other sources at its disposal to manage its liquidity needs.

During the first six months of 2007, the Parent received $239 million in dividends from its subsidiaries. At June 30, 2007, $445 million of dividend capacity was available for the subsidiaries to pay to the Parent under regulatory guidelines.

The Parent also has a program to issue short-term commercial paper. At June 30, 2007, outstanding commercial paper was $229 million. In addition, at June 30, 2007, the Parent had a secured revolving credit facility with a subsidiary bank totaling $40 million. No amount was outstanding on this facility at June 30, 2007.

On June 6, 2007, under provisions of the borrowing agreements, the Company redeemed the entire $19.7 million net par amount of the 11.75% trust preferred securities.

The subsidiaries’ primary source of funding is their core deposits, consisting of demand, savings and money market deposits, time deposits under $100,000 and foreign deposits. At June 30, 2007, these core deposits, in aggregate, constituted 86.5% of consolidated deposits, compared with 87.7% of consolidated deposits at December 31, 2006. For the first six months of 2007, increases in deposits resulted in net cash inflows of $109 million.

The Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) system is also a significant source of liquidity for each of the Company’s subsidiary banks. Zions Bank and TCBW are members of the FHLB of Seattle. CB&T, NSB, and NBA are members of the FHLB of San Francisco. Vectra is a member of the FHLB of Topeka and Amegy is a member of the FHLB of Dallas. The FHLB allows member banks to borrow against their eligible loans to satisfy liquidity requirements. For the first six months of 2007, the activity in short-term FHLB borrowings resulted in a net cash inflow of approximately $147 million.

At June 30, 2007, the Company managed approximately $2.2 billion of securitized assets that were originated or purchased by its subsidiary banks. Of these, approximately $1.3 billion were credit-enhanced by a third party insurance provider and held in Lockhart Funding, LLC, which is a qualifying special-purpose entity (“QSPE”) securities conduit and has been an important source of funding for the Company’s loans. Zions Bank provides a Liquidity Facility for a fee to Lockhart, which purchases floating-rate U.S. Government and AAA-rated securities with funds from the issuance of commercial paper. Zions Bank also provides interest rate hedging support and administrative and investment advisory services for a fee. Pursuant to the Liquidity Facility, Zions Bank is required to purchase securities from Lockhart to provide funds for it to repay maturing commercial paper upon Lockhart’s inability to access the commercial paper market, or upon a commercial paper market disruption, as specified in the governing documents of Lockhart. In addition, pursuant to the governing documents, including the Liquidity Facility, if any security in Lockhart is downgraded below AA-, Zions Bank must either 1) place its letter of credit on the security, 2) obtain a credit enhancement on the security from a third party, or 3) purchase the security from Lockhart at book value. At any given time, the maximum commitment of Zions Bank is the book value of Lockhart’s securities portfolio, which is not allowed to exceed the size of the Liquidity Facility.

At June 30, 2007, the book value of Lockhart’s securities portfolio was $3.5 billion, which approximated market value, and the size of the Liquidity Facility commitment was $6.12 billion. No amounts were outstanding under this Liquidity Facility at June 30, 2007, December 31, 2006 or June 30, 2006. Lockhart is limited in size by program agreements, agreements with rating agencies and by the size of the Liquidity Facility.

Included in Lockhart’s $3.5 billion portfolio at June 30, 2007 are $138.4 million of certain structured asset-backed CDOs (“ABS CDOs”) (also known as diversified structured finance CDOs) with some exposure to subprime and home equity mortgage securitizations. Approximately 24% ($33.2 million) of the collateral backing the $138.4 million of ABS CDOs is subprime mortgage securitizations and 14% ($19.4 million) is home equity credit line securitizations. Approximately $132.8 million of these ABS CDOs are rated by Moody’s as Aaa and $5.6 million are rated Aa1. These ABS CDOs were purchased from 2001 through 2004.

As described in Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the FASB is pursuing an alternative to the derecognition model in SFAS No. 140,Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. Alternatives to the current derecognition requirements have been collectively referred to as the Linked Presentation model. This model would eliminate the concept of a QSPE and, if certain criteria are met, allow for the linked presentation of the transferred assets and related liabilities within a single asset caption on the face of the balance sheet. It is too early in the process to determine what, if any, impact this would have on the Company’s securitization program.

The Company’s investment activities can also provide or use cash. For the first six months of 2007, investment securities activities resulted in a decrease in investment securities holdings and a net increase of cash in the amount of $407 million.

Maturing balances in the various loan portfolios also provide additional flexibility in managing cash flows. In most cases, however, loan growth has resulted in net cash outflows from a funding standpoint. For the first six months of 2007, loan growth resulted in a net cash outflow of $1,429 million.

A more comprehensive discussion of our liquidity management is contained in Zions’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Operational Risk Management

Operational risk is the potential for unexpected losses attributable to human error, systems failures, fraud, or inadequate internal controls and procedures. In its ongoing efforts to identify and manage operational risk, the Company has created an Operating Risk Management Group, whose responsibility is to help Company management identify and monitor the key internal controls and processes that the Company has in place to mitigate operational risk. We have documented controls and the Control Self Assessment related to financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991.

To manage and minimize its operating risk, the Company has in place transactional documentation requirements, systems and procedures to monitor transactions and positions, regulatory compliance reviews, and periodic reviews by the Company’s internal audit and credit examination departments. In addition, reconciliation procedures have been established to ensure that data processing systems consistently and accurately capture critical data. Further, we maintain contingency plans and systems for operations support in the event of natural or other disasters. Efforts are underway to improve the Company’s oversight of operational risk, including enhancement of risk-control self assessments and of antifraud measures.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company has a fundamental financial objective to consistently produce superior risk-adjusted returns on its shareholders’ capital. We believe that a strong capital position is vital to continued profitability and to promoting depositor and investor confidence.

Total shareholders’ equity on June 30, 2007 was $5.2 billion, up 4.8% from $5.0 billion at December 31, 2006 and 17.5% from $4.4 billion at June 30, 2006. The Company’s capital ratios were as follows as of the dates indicated:

	June 30, 2007	December 31, 2006	June 30, 2006
Tangible equity ratio	6.52%	6.51%	5.54%
Average equity to average assets (three months ended)	10.92%	10.37%	10.08%
Risk-based capital ratios:
Tier 1 leverage	7.83%	7.86%	7.51%
Tier 1 risk-based capital	7.82%	7.98%	7.63%
Total risk-based capital	11.91%	12.29%	12.34%

It is our belief that capital not considered necessary to support current and anticipated business should be returned to the Company’s shareholders through dividends and repurchases of its shares. The Company has stated that its target range for the tangible equity ratio is 6.25% to 6.50%; the actual ratio at June 30, 2007 was 2 basis points above the top of this range.

In December 2006, the Company resumed its stock repurchase plan, which had been suspended since July 2005 because of the Amegy acquisition. On December 11, 2006, the Board authorized a $400 million repurchase program. The Company repurchased and retired 2,738,832 shares of its common stock in the first six months of 2007 at a total cost of $228.7 million and an average per share price of $83.52 under this share repurchase authorization.
