General Fourth Financial Corporation ("Registrant" or the "Company") is a bank holding company headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, which offers a broad range of bank and bank-related services through its subsidiaries, BANK IV Kansas, National Association ("BANK IV Kansas"), BANK IV Oklahoma, National Association ("BANK IV Oklahoma"), and BANK IV Missouri, National Association ("BANK IV Missouri"). At September 30, 1994, the Company was the 71st largest, as measured by total assets, among bank holding companies in the United States. The Company is the largest bank holding company headquartered in Kansas and, at December 31, 1994, had total consolidated assets of $7.73 billion, total deposits of $5.65 billion, and stockholders' equity of $602.1 million. BANK IV Kansas, whose predecessor was originally organized in 1887, is the largest commercial bank in Kansas and, at December 31, 1994, had approximately 12.0% of all insured deposits in Kansas. BANK IV Kansas, the only major statewide bank in Kansas, has 87 offices in 36 communities. BANK IV Oklahoma has 56 offices in 23 communities. BANK IV Missouri, acquired in January, 1995, has three offices in Independence, Missouri. The three BANK IV banks provide a wide range of commercial and retail banking services. Each separate BANK IV market-based unit is under the management of a local president. Trust and customer investments, mortgage banking, commercial finance and leasing, and bank card services are each managed on a line-of-business basis. At December 31, 1994, the BANK IV banks held total assets of $6.71 billion in various fiduciary capacities and exercised investment authority over $2.39 billion of these assets. Also on that date, the BANK IV banks serviced a $1.46-billion residential mortgage loan portfolio, of which $682.7 million was serviced for others. The BANK IV banks operate the VIA system, a network of 340 automated teller machines located in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri at which approximately 12.7 million electronic banking transactions were initiated during 1994. In addition, Registrant owns several other subsidiaries which perform various financially-related services. These subsidiaries include a community development corporation, which makes loans and investments to promote redevelopment in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods of the communities served by the BANK IV banks and to finance small and minority-owned businesses; a subsidiary of BANK IV Kansas which offers non-deposit investment products and services at offices of the BANK IV banks; and a company which reinsures credit life and health insurance policies. Such subsidiaries in the aggregate do not account for a material portion of the Company's revenues or profits. Recent Acquisitions During 1994, the Company acquired two banks located in Kansas and a bank and a federal savings bank located in Oklahoma. The Kansas banks acquired were Emprise Bank, National Association, Hutchinson, Kansas ("Emprise"), and First National Bank and Trust Company in Dodge City, Dodge City, Kansas ("Dodge"). The Oklahoma acquisitions included Equity Bank for Savings, F.A., Oklahoma City, Oklahoma ("Equity"), and Metro Bank of Broken Arrow, Broken Arrow, Oklahoma ("Metro"). The following table sets forth for each 1994 acquisition the amount of assets of the acquired financial institution at the date of acquisition, the amount paid by the Company, the number of shares of common stock of the Company issued, and the accounting method used to account for the acquisition. Accounting Bank Assets Cash Paid No. of Shares Method ---- ------ -------- ------------ --------- (In thousands) Equity $491,506 $90,720 - Purchase Emprise 258,731 31,206 - Purchase Dodge and Metro 144,999 - 590,710 Pooling 36(1) 70,300(1) Purchase -------- (1) To acquire minority interests in Dodge and Metro. During January and February 1995 three acquisitions were completed. In Oklahoma, the Company acquired Stillwater Federal Savings Bank, Stillwater, Oklahoma ("Stillwater"), and Security Bank and Trust Company, Blackwell, Oklahoma ("Security"). The Missouri bank acquired was Standard Bank & Trust Company, Independence, Missouri ("Standard"). For the 1995 acquisitions, the following table sets forth the amount of assets of the acquired financial institution at December 31, 1994, the amount paid by the Company, the number of shares of common stock of the Company issued, and the accounting method used to account for the acquisition. Accounting Bank Assets Cash Paid No. of Shares Method ----- ------ ---------- ----------- ----------- (In thousands) Stillwater . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $95,503 $ - 368,981 Purchase Standard . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 85,190 - 315,000 Pooling Security . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 46,851 8,197 - Purchase As of March 1, 1995, the Company has no binding commitments, agreements, or understandings to acquire any additional financial institutions, but additional acquisition agreements may be negotiated or entered into at any time. Though the Company considers strategic acquisitions which can be made on favorable terms, the Company's focus has now shifted from growth by acquisition to internal growth, enhancement of revenues, and greater efficiency. Competition BANK IV Kansas is the largest of approximately 460 commercial banks in Kansas, and as of June 30, 1994 (the latest date for which statewide information is available), held approximately 15.5% of the total bank deposits in Kansas. As of June 30, 1994, BANK IV Kansas ranked 120th largest, as measured by total assets, out of approximately 10,600 commercial banks in the United States. BANK IV Oklahoma is the second-largest of approximately 350 banks in Oklahoma. BANK IV Missouri is one of approximately 475 commercial banks in Missouri and is one of over 30 commercial banks headquartered in the Missouri portion of the metropolitan Kansas City market. There are one or more other commercial banks located in each BANK IV community, resulting in strong competition in all areas of bank services. The principal methods of competition in the commercial banking industry are price, service, and interest rates paid to depositors and charged to credit customers. In addition, banks compete for loans and deposits with other types of financial institutions such as savings and loan associations, credit unions, money market mutual funds, and finance companies. Increasingly, banks also compete for both consumer and commercial loans and for deposits with large retail and commercial enterprises. Among other things, this increased competition has resulted in banks being required to accept lower interest rates on loans and to pay interest on a larger percentage of their deposits. Lines of Business and Reportable Segments Registrant and its subsidiaries engage primarily in commercial banking. Registrant and its subsidiaries, therefore, did not engage in material operations in separate reportable industry segments for the last three fiscal years. Employees As of March 1, 1995, Registrant and its subsidiaries had a total of 3,520 full-time-equivalent employees. Registrant had 985 full-time-equivalent employees. BANK IV Kansas had 1,632, BANK IV Oklahoma had 876, BANK IV Missouri had 25, and Fourth Financial Insurance Company and BANK IV Community Development Corporation each had one. Regulation and Supervision Federal Regulation. The Company is subject to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "Act"), and to regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Board"). The Act limits the nonbanking activities which may be engaged in by the Company and its subsidiaries to those so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. In determining whether a particular activity is a proper incident to banking or managing or controlling banks, the Board must consider whether performance of an activity by an affiliate of a bank holding company can reasonably be expected to produce benefits to the public, such as greater convenience, increased competition, or gains in efficiency. The benefits of the activity must also outweigh possible adverse effects, such as undue concentration of resources, decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of interest, or unsound banking practices. The Act also prohibits bank holding companies from acquiring substantially all the assets of, or owning more than 5% of the voting shares of, any bank which is not already majority-owned, or of any nonbanking company, without the prior approval of the Board. The Board may not approve an application to acquire before September 29, 1995, shares or assets of a bank located outside the state in which the operations of the applicant's banking subsidiaries are principally conducted unless such acquisition is specifically authorized by a statute of the state in which the bank whose shares or assets are to be acquired is located. For a description of recently enacted changes in federal law, see the section below captioned Recently Enacted Federal Legislation. The Company, its nonbanking subsidiaries, BANK IV Kansas, BANK IV Oklahoma, and BANK IV Missouri are all affiliates of each other within the meaning of the Federal Reserve Act. As such, they are subject to certain restrictions on loans by the BANK IV banks to the Company or such nonbanking subsidiaries and on investments in and loans secured by their stock or other securities. The Company and its subsidiaries, including the BANK IV banks, are also subject to certain restrictions on the issuance, underwriting, and distribution of securities. In addition, the Board may examine the Company or any of its subsidiaries. As a bank holding company, the Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from its subsidiaries. The principal sources of funds available for dividends on the Company's common stock and its preferred stock are dividends from the BANK IV banks and cash and other investments held by the Company. The approval of the Comptroller of the Currency (the "Comptroller") is required if total dividends declared by a national bank in any one year exceed the bank's net profits for that year plus the profits for the two preceding years retained by the bank. In 1995, the BANK IV banks may pay an aggregate of approximately $39.9 million (in addition to their 1995 net profits) in dividends to the Company without obtaining regulatory approval. The Comptroller's approval was required and obtained for dividends paid by BANK IV Oklahoma in 1994 and for some of the dividends paid by BANK IV Kansas in 1994. Because of the financial strength of Registrant and the banks' anticipated earnings capacity, the BANK IV banks expect to be able to obtain permission, if required, from the Comptroller to pay dividends in 1995 to the extent justified by their respective financial conditions and subject to the capital requirements described below. Recently Enacted Federal Legislation. The recently enacted federal Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 will increase the ability of Registrant and other bank holding companies to make interstate acquisitions and to operate their subsidiary banks. Commencing on September 29, 1995, adequately capitalized and adequately managed bank holding companies will be permitted to acquire banks located anywhere in the United States without regard to the provisions of any state laws prohibiting such acquisitions. Interstate acquisitions will not be permitted, however, if the potential acquirer would control more than ten percent of the insured deposits in the United States or more than 30 percent of insured deposits in the home state of the bank to be acquired or in any state in which such bank has a branch. States may enact statutes increasing the 30 percent limit and may also lower such limit if they do so on a non-discriminatory basis. States will also be permitted to prohibit acquisitions of banks that have been established for fewer than five years. The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System is required to consider the applicant's record under the federal Community Reinvestment Act in determining whether to approve an interstate banking acquisition. The new statute also permits, after June 1, 1997, interstate branch banking in all states by adequately capitalized and adequately managed banks, but a state may enact specific legislation before June 1, 1997 prohibiting interstate branch banking in that state, in which event banks headquartered in the state will not be permitted to branch into other states. A state may also enact legislation permitting non- discriminatory interstate branch banking in such state before June 1, 1997. Applications for interstate branching authority will be subjected to regulatory scrutiny of compliance with both federal and state community reinvestment statutes with respect to all of the banks involved in the proposed transaction. Registrant is unable to predict the effect, if any, of such new legislation on it. Capital Guidelines. Bank holding companies, such as the Company, and their bank subsidiaries are required to maintain three capital ratios which measure capital adequacy. Capital is separated into "Tier I capital" (as applied to the Company, common stockholders' equity and Preferred Stock, less certain intangible assets) and "Tier II capital" (as applied to the Company, the allowance for credit losses limited to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets). The first two ratios, which are based on the degree of credit risk in the company's assets, provide for weighting assets based on assigned risk factors and include off-balance-sheet items such as loan commitments and stand-by letters of credit. The ratio of total capital (Tier I capital plus Tier II capital) to risk-weighted assets and off-balance-sheet commitments and contingencies must be at least 8.0% and the ratio of Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets and off-balance-sheet commitments must be at least 4.0%. The capital leverage ratio supplements the risk-based capital guidelines. Banks and bank holding companies are to maintain a minimum ratio of Tier I capital to average adjusted total assets of 3.0%. These ratio requirements are minimums. Any institution operating at or near those levels would be expected by the regulators to have well-diversified risk, including no undue interest rate risk exposures, excellent asset quality, high liquidity, and good earnings and, in general, would have to be considered a strong banking organization. All other organizations and any institutions experiencing or anticipating significant growth are expected to maintain capital ratios at least one to two percent above the minimum levels, and higher capital ratios can be required if warranted by particular circumstances or risk profile. A bank's deposit insurance premium is based, in part, on the bank's capital levels. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation is the single insurer of deposits in financial institutions. Deposit insurance premium rates range from 0.23% to 0.31% of a bank's assessment base (as defined), depending on the bank's supervisory rating by the bank's primary regulator and its capital level. (The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has proposed, but not adopted, a reduction in premium rates.) A bank is typically defined to be "well capitalized" if it maintains a Tier I capital ratio of at least 6.0%, a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10.0%, and a leverage ratio of at least 5.0%. It is the Company's intention to maintain sufficient capital in each of its bank subsidiaries to permit them to maintain a "well capitalized" designation. The capital ratios for both of the Company's subsidiary banks exceeded the "well capitalized" regulatory capital requirements at December 31, 1994. Pending and Proposed Federal Legislation. There are various pending and proposed bills in Congress that would restructure the federal supervision of financial institutions. The Company is unable to predict with any certainty the effect any such legislation would have on the Company and its subsidiaries. State Regulation. Each of the three states in which the Company's banking subsidiaries are located has laws (described below) limiting interstate acquisitions of banks headquartered in such state. Such state laws will be for the most part pre-empted by the recent federal legislation described above. One or more of such states may amend their laws in response to the federal legislation before it takes effect, but the Company is unable to predict the likelihood or nature of any such amendments. Kansas. A Kansas bank holding company is prohibited from acquiring, directly or indirectly, any voting shares in any Kansas bank if, after such acquisition, all of the Kansas banks in which such bank holding company or any subsidiary of such bank holding company has ownership or control of any voting shares would have, in the aggregate, more than 15% of the total deposits of all banks domiciled in Kansas plus the total deposits, savings deposits, shares and other accounts in savings and loan associations, federal savings banks, and building and loan associations in Kansas as determined by the Kansas bank commissioner on the basis of the most recent reports to supervisory authorities which are available at the time of the acquisition. The statute contains an exception from the 15%-of-statewide-deposits limitation in the case of an acquisition that the Kansas bank commissioner determines would be in the public interest to prevent the failure or probable failure of the acquired bank. As of December 31, 1994, BANK IV Kansas had approximately 12.0% of the total deposits of all Kansas banks, savings and loan associations, federal savings banks, and building and loan associations according to the most recent information available to the Company. Bank holding companies located in Nebraska, Missouri, Colorado, Oklahoma, and Arkansas are permitted to acquire banks and bank holding companies located in Kansas upon obtaining the approval of the Kansas State Banking Board. Among the factors to be considered in granting such approval are whether existing subsidiaries of the applicant are operated in a safe, sound, and prudent manner, the adequacy of services being provided by existing subsidiaries of the applicant, whether the applicant proposes to provide adequate and appropriate services in the communities served by the Kansas banks to be acquired, whether the proposed acquisition will result in a Kansas bank or bank holding company located in Kansas that has adequate capital and good earnings prospects, and whether the proposed acquisition is in the interests of the depositors and creditors of the bank or bank holding company which is the subject of the proposed acquisition and in the public interest generally. Such acquisitions are also subject to the deposits limitation described above. No application can be approved unless the state banking board finds that the laws of the state or jurisdiction in which the applicant bank holding company is located permit a Kansas bank holding company to acquire a bank located in that state or jurisdiction on terms that are substantially no more restrictive than those established under the Kansas statute. The Kansas statute would also permit Iowa banks or bank holding companies to acquire Kansas banks and bank holding companies if Iowa were to adopt appropriate reciprocal legislation. Oklahoma. The Company is permitted under Oklahoma law to acquire additional banks, but such banks must have been in existence and continuous operation for at least five years. Oklahoma prohibits a multi-bank holding company from acquiring any additional banks if such acquisition would result in the bank holding company having direct or indirect ownership of banks located in Oklahoma that would have in excess of 11% of the aggregate deposits of all financial institutions located in Oklahoma which have deposits insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or National Credit Union Administration. As of December 31, 1994, BANK IV Oklahoma had approximately 5.4% (5.6% on a pro forma basis) of the total deposits of insured Oklahoma savings and loans, credit unions, and banks. This restriction is not expected to affect the Oklahoma acquisition activities of the Company in the near future. Missouri. The Company is also permitted under Missouri law to acquire additional banks. Missouri law prohibits an adjoining-state bank holding company from obtaining control of any bank if the total deposits in that bank together with the total deposits in all banks controlled by the adjoining-state bank holding company exceed 13% of the total deposits in all depository financial institutions in Missouri which have deposits insured by an agency of the federal government. As of December 31, 1994, Standard Bank & Trust Company, the predecessor of BANK IV Missouri, had only approximately 0.1% of the total deposits of federally insured depository financial institutions in Missouri as of June 30, 1994, the latest date for which information concerning deposits in Missouri financial institutions is available to the Company, so Missouri's 13% restriction is not expected to affect the Missouri acquisition activities of the Company in the near future. Government Monetary Policy and Economic Controls The earnings of Registrant and the BANK IV banks are affected by the policies of regulatory authorities. An important function of the Federal Reserve System is to regulate the national supply of bank credit in order to affect the level of economic activity. Among the instruments used to implement these objectives are open market operations in U.S. Government securities, changes in the discount rate on member bank borrowings, and changes in reserve requirements. These instruments are used in varying combinations to influence overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and deposits, and their use may also affect interest rates charged on loans or paid for deposits.

Kansas The only significant real property owned by Registrant is a building located in Wichita, Kansas, acquired in January, 1994 to be remodeled for use as a data processing and operations facility. BANK IV Kansas owns substantially all of its banking facilities, but the land on which some of such facilities are located is leased and 13 branch facilities, including five branches located in supermarkets, are leased entirely. Registrant believes that all of such properties are well maintained and suitable for their intended purposes. Described below are the principal buildings operated by BANK IV Kansas. Wichita Registrant and BANK IV Kansas occupy a four-building complex located in downtown Wichita, Kansas. The Fourth Financial Center is a ten-level office building located at 100 North Broadway. The building is located on an 88,450-square-foot tract of land and contains approximately 396,000 square feet of gross area, which includes a 25,000-square-foot enclosed courtyard. The building contains approximately 312,000 rentable square feet, of which BANK IV Kansas and Registrant utilize approximately 170,000 square feet with the balance being leased to tenants. The Operations Center is a five-level office building located adjacent to Fourth Financial Center and connected by an enclosed pedestrian walkway. The 63,000-square-foot building is located on a 13,020-square-foot tract of land and houses operating functions of Registrant and its subsidiaries. A 450-car, six-level parking garage and walk-in bank facility is located just west of Fourth Financial Center and is connected to it by an enclosed pedestrian walkway. Another building, Exchange Place, is located one block west of the Fourth Financial Center. Exchange Place is located on five tracts of land, two of which are owned by BANK IV Kansas and three of which are leased. The leases on the three leased tracts expire on August 31, 2003, and on December 31, 2009. The building, constructed prior to 1903 with various additions to the basic structure being completed through 1957, is an eight-level structure plus a full basement, a mezzanine floor, and an eighth floor mechanical area. The building contains approximately 147,000 square feet of rentable space of which BANK IV Kansas and Registrant are currently occupying approximately 123,500 square feet and the remaining 23,500 square feet are leased. Topeka BANK IV Kansas owns the BANK IV Tower, a 16-story office building in downtown Topeka, Kansas containing 230,000 rentable square feet. At February 1, 1995, BANK IV Kansas occupied approximately 83,000 square feet of the building and approximately 121,500 of the remaining 147,000 square feet was leased. A 260-car, ten-level parking garage is attached to the building. Townsite Plaza Development, Inc., a subsidiary of BANK IV Kansas, owns and operates three buildings located immediately east of the BANK IV Tower above a municipal subsurface garage. The three buildings, constructed between 1976 and 1981, contain an aggregate of approximately 138,000 square feet of rentable space, of which a total of approximately 116,000 square feet was leased as of February 1, 1995. Oklahoma BANK IV Oklahoma does not own any major building facilities. Under a lease which expires in 2004, it leases 61,000 square feet in the BANK IV Center Building in downtown Tulsa which is used as the BANK IV Oklahoma headquarters. Under a lease which expires in 2004, it also leases 33,000 square feet in the BANK IV Tower in Oklahoma City as headquarters for its Oklahoma City activities.

A- - A- FOURTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION MANAGEMENT'S STATEMENT OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL REPORTING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Management of Fourth Financial Corporation is responsible for the preparation, integrity and fair presentation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and, as such, include some amounts that are based on judgements and estimates of management. The financial information appearing elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-K is consistent with the information in the consolidated financial statements unless otherwise stated. INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an effective internal control system over financial reporting. The system contains monitoring mechanisms, and actions are taken to correct deficiencies identified. There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even an effective internal control system can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of an internal control system may vary over time. Management assessed the Company's internal control system over financial reporting as of December 31, 1994. This assessment was based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in "Internal Control-Integrated Framework" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management believes that, in all material respects, Fourth Financial Corporation maintained an effective internal control system over financial reporting as of December 31, 1994. The Audit and Examination Committee of the Board of Directors is comprised entirely of outside directors. The committee, among other responsibilities, meets periodically with management, the independent auditors, and the general auditor to ensure that they are carrying out their respective responsibilities related to internal control systems, auditing procedures and financial reporting matters. The independent auditors and the general auditor have access to the committee, without the presence of management, to discuss the adequacy of the internal control system over financial reporting and any other auditing or financial reporting matters which they believe should be brought to the attention of the committee.

FOURTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Fourth Financial Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the "Company"). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements for prior years have been restated to reflect the poolings of interests detailed in Footnote 2 - Acquisitions. Certain reclassifications of previously reported amounts have been made to conform with current year presentation format. Securities The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standard ("FAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" on December 31, 1993. Management reviewed the December 31, 1993 debt securities portfolio and classified the debt securities as either held- to-maturity or available-for-sale. Debt securities acquired subsequent to December 31, 1993 were similarly classified. Debt securities are classified as "Held-to-maturity" when management has the positive intent and the Company has the ability to hold the debt securities to maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, both computed on the constant yield method. The prepayment history of each mortgage-backed security pool is used to recalculate the yield for amortizing and accreting the premium and discount on these securities. Amortization, accretion, and interest on held-to- maturity securities are included in "Interest and dividends on investment securities." Marketable equity securities and debt securities that are deemed to be available-for-sale for the implementation of asset and liability management strategies, possible liquidity needs, and other purposes are classified as "Available-for-sale." Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported in a separate component of stockholders' equity. The amortized cost of debt securities in this category is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. Amortization, accretion, and interest and dividends on securities classified as available-for-sale are included in "Interest and dividends on investment securities." Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary on available-for- sale securities are included in "Investment securities gains." The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Securities held for sale to customers and in anticipation of short-term market movements are classified as "Trading securities." Securities held for trading are stated at market value. Gains and losses, both realized and unrealized, are reflected in "Other noninterest income." The specific identification method is used to determine the cost of securities sold. "Other securities" include equity securities for which there is no readily determinable fair value, and are carried at cost. Dividends on these equity securities are included in "Interest and dividends on investment securities." Loans and Leases Loans are reported at the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned discount. Interest income on loans is accrued based on the unpaid principal and the applicable rate. The net investment in direct financing leases consists of the sum of all minimum lease payments and estimated residual values, less unearned income. Unearned income on discounted loans and leases is accreted and included in "Interest and fees on loans and leases" on a basis approximating a level yield on the net investment in the loans or leases. Residential mortgage loans and educational loans held for sale are stated at the lower of cost or market value. These loans are analyzed on an aggregate basis to determine the lower of cost or market value. Net gains or losses on the sale of these loans, including adjustments to market value, are part of normal operations and are reflected in "Other noninterest income." The specific identification method is used to determine the cost of loans sold. A loan is placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest is due and has remained unpaid for 90 days or more unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. A loan is also placed on nonaccrual status when there is reasonable doubt as to the ability of the borrower to continue to pay principal or interest. At the time a loan is classified as nonaccrual, interest previously recorded but not collected is reversed. Interest payments received on such loans are generally recorded as a reduction in carrying value unless such carrying value is deemed to be collectible. A loan is not reclassified as accruing until all principal and interest payments are brought current and the borrower has demonstrated the ability to service the loan in accordance with its contractual terms. Other Real Estate and Nonperforming Assets Other real estate and nonperforming assets include assets acquired from loan settlements and foreclosures. These assets are carried at the lower of the loan carrying amount or fair value minus estimated selling costs and are included in "Income receivable and other assets" in the consolidated statements of condition. At the time of acquisition or repossession, any write-down necessary to record an asset at its fair value is charged to the allowance for credit losses. A valuation allowance for estimated selling costs is recorded through a charge to "Net costs of operation of other real estate and nonperforming assets." Losses and gains as well as net costs associated with these properties are also included in "Net costs of operation of other real estate and nonperforming assets" in the consolidated statements of income. Allowance for Credit Losses The allowance for credit losses is the amount deemed by management to be reasonably necessary to provide for possible losses on loans or leases that may become uncollectible. Additions to the allowance are charged to expense as the provision for credit losses. Loan and lease losses and recoveries are charged or credited directly to the allowance. It is the Company's policy to charge off any loan or portion of that loan when it is deemed to be uncollectible in the ordinary course of business. An evaluation of the overall quality of the portfolio is performed to determine the necessary level of the allowance for credit losses. This evaluation takes into consideration the classification of loans and the application of loss estimates to these classifications. It is the responsibility of management in each of the Company's markets to classify its loans as pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful, or loss. The classification criteria are established by the credit administration function of the Company, which is independent of all lending functions, and are intended to be consistent with the criteria applied by federal banking system examiners. These classifications take into consideration all sources of repayment, underlying collateral, the value of such collateral, and current and anticipated economic conditions, trends, and uncertainties. The Company has an independent loan review function which reviews the loans periodically. The Company's bank subsidiaries also are subjected to periodic examinations by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Loss factors are developed by loan type and classification using historical loss data and statistical modeling techniques. The application of these loss factors to the portfolio classifications, combined with analyses of general economic conditions, trends in portfolio volume, maturity, and composition, and estimates of potential future losses on specific large loans and those loans requiring special attention, provide management with data essential to identify and estimate the credit risk inherent in the portfolio. The allowance for credit losses reflects the result of these estimates and is deemed to be adequate at each balance sheet date. Loan and Loan Commitment Fees The Company generally recognizes loan and loan commitment fees as revenue when received and related costs as expenses when incurred. FAS No. 91, "Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with Originating Loans," provides for the deferral of such fees and direct loan origination costs and the amortization of such fees and costs over the lives of the related loans as an adjustment of yield. However, the adoption of FAS No. 91 would not have a material effect on operating results. Bank Premises and Equipment Land is stated at cost, and buildings and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is included in operating expenses and is computed principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Accelerated methods are generally used for income tax purposes with deferred income taxes provided for timing differences. Additions, major replacements, and improvements to buildings and equipment are added to the asset accounts at cost. Maintenance, repairs, and minor replacements are charged directly to operating expense. The costs incidental to the operation and maintenance of buildings, net of income received from tenants, are reflected as "Net occupancy" expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Income Taxes Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted FAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." There are two components of the income tax provision, current and deferred. The current income tax provisions approximate taxes to be paid or refunded for the applicable period. Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized for the change in deferred tax liabilities or assets between periods. Deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognized on the temporary differences between the bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the tax laws and their bases as reported in the financial statements. Recognition of deferred tax assets is based on management's belief that it is more likely than not that the tax benefit associated with certain temporary differences, operating loss carryforwards, and tax credits will be realized. A valuation allowance is recorded for those deferred tax items for which it is more likely than not that realization will not occur. Prior to January 1, 1993, the Company accounted for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 11, "Accounting For Income Taxes." Under APB 11, the income tax effects of transactions were recognized in the years in which they entered into the determination of reported income, regardless of when they were recognized for tax return purposes. When income and expenses were recognized in different periods for tax purposes, applicable deferred taxes were provided in the financial statements. Interest, Currency, and Financial Futures Contracts In the normal course of business in meeting the investment and financing needs of its customers and managing its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, the Company is a party to various interest rate, foreign currency, and financial futures contracts. From time to time, interest rate swaps are used to modify the interest sensitivity position inherent in the repricing characteristics of specific assets or liabilities. The net interest received or paid on the interest rate swaps is accounted for as an adjustment to the interest income or interest expense on the assets or liabilities, respectively, that the swap was intended to modify. The Company enters into forward foreign currency contracts to assist customers with their foreign currency needs related to foreign manufacturing operations, exporting, or importing. These customer- driven contracts are generally hedged with offsetting contracts. The market value gains and losses relating to currency exchange contracts are recorded at settlement in "Other noninterest income." Gains and losses associated with futures contracts, entered into as trading positions, are marked to market and recognized currently in "Other noninterest income." 2 - Acquisitions Purchase Transactions During 1994 and 1993, a total of five business combinations accounted for as purchases were completed. The following table presents information regarding these purchase transactions.

The purchase price has been allocated to the net identifiable assets acquired based on their fair values with the excess allocated to cost in excess of net assets acquired. The effect on results of operations for 1994 and 1993, had the purchase transactions occurred at the beginning of these years, was not material. On November 10, 1994 the Company completed the sale of three Equity branches which were identified at the time of acquisition as potential sale targets. In these transactions the Company transferred deposit liabilities and sold loans secured by these deposit liabilities and bank premises. The sales price of these branches was utilized in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in the Equity business combination. The following table presents information regarding these sales. 1994 ------------ (In thousands) Fair value of assets sold . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ (485) Fair value of liabilities transferred . . . . . . . 38,048 Reduction of cost in excess of net assets acquired.

("First Dodge") in a business combination accounted for as a pooling of interests. Total assets acquired amounted to $144,999,000. The consolidated statements for the prior periods have been restated as if the entities had been combined at the beginning of the periods presented. Included in "Merger and integration costs" for 1994 is a charge of $1,124,000 to conform the amortization of intangible assets of First Dodge to the Company's accounting policies. Other adjustments to conform the accounting policies of First Dodge to the accounting policies of the Company were immaterial. Also on June 30, 1994, the Company issued 70,300 shares and paid $36,000 in cash to acquire the minority interests of two of First Dodge's subsidiaries. As prescribed by APB 16, the acquisitions of the minority interests were accounted for as purchases. The fair market value of shares issued and cash paid totaled $2,118,000, which exceeded the net assets acquired by $951,000. The effect of the 1994 pooling of interests on previously reported selected operating results is as follows: Three Months Ended Year Ended March 31, December 31, ---------------------- 1994 1993 1992 ------------------ -------- -------- (Dollars in thousands, except per share data) Interest income: Company. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $104,424 $433,467 $427,119 Pooled company . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2,531 10,446 11,769 -------- -------- -------- Combined . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $106,955 $443,913 $438,888 ======== ======== ======== Net interest income: Company. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 62,797 $257,966 $234,722 Pooled company . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1,576 6,445 6,635 -------- -------- -------- Combined . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 64,373 $264,411 $241,357 ======== ======== ======== Net income: Company. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 20,201 $ 75,691 $ 63,306 Pooled company . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

A premium of $1,141,000 was paid to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") to assume these deposits. 4 - Cash and Due from Banks The subsidiary banks are required by federal law to maintain reserves against their deposit liabilities. These reserves can be maintained in the form of vault cash or balances at a Federal Reserve Bank. The average cash and Federal Reserve balances maintained as reserves were $145,158,000 for 1994 and $118,485,000 for 1993. Cash and due from banks also includes checks in process of collection and balances maintained at correspondent banks for services rendered. 5 - Securities Debt securities classified as held-to-maturity are those securities management has the positive intent and the Company has the ability to hold until maturity. The available-for-sale securities include marketable equity securities and those debt securities deemed to be available-for-sale for the implementation of asset and liability management strategies, possible liquidity needs, and other purposes. The following table presents the amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity and carried at amortized cost.

These securities were sold within 14 days of maturity; thus the market risk had been substantially eliminated as a pricing factor, and a gain of only $5,000 was realized. On February 23, 1995, the Company sold approximately $424,000,000 of fixed-rate debt securities classified as available-for-sale, resulting in a gross realized loss of $22,400,000. An income tax benefit of approximately $8,000,000 will be recorded in connection with these securities transactions.

The $20,000,000 note payable at December 31, 1994 was borrowed under the Company's committed line of credit from a correspondent bank. Pursuant to this line of credit, the Company was required to maintain capital ratios above the regulatory "Well Capitalized" standard and the ratio of nonperforming assets to total loans plus other real estate owned could not exceed 4.0%. At December 31, 1994 the Company was in compliance with these covenants. This committed line of credit was replaced by two new Credit Agreements, entered into on January 3, 1995. The prior note was paid off and $20,000,000 was borrowed under the new agreements. Under the new Credit Agreements, the Company may borrow up to $100,000,000 on a revolving basis at any time prior to January 3, 1996. Amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreements may have maturities not to exceed 90 days. Interest rates based on, at the Company's option, the lenders' published "reference rate" or rates tied to the London Interbank Offered Rate exist. A facility fee is charged on these commitments. The Company is required to maintain consolidated stockholders' equity at a certain level and maintain specific ratios related to leverage, risk-based capital, and nonperforming assets.

The Company is required to maintain a ratio of consolidated equity to consolidated assets above the level required by the Federal Reserve Board of Governors; maintain investments in subsidiaries below 140% of consolidated equity; and maintain a level of consolidated tangible net worth exceeding consolidated funded debt. At December 31, 1994 the Company was in compliance with all of the terms of the agreement. The mortgage indebtedness and other notes payable of $6,926,000 in 1993 includes $6,063,000 from the current year pooling-of-interests acquisition. The acquired balance was paid off at the acquisition date. Certain buildings and real estate have been pledged as collateral on mortgage indebtedness and other notes payable.

This preferred stock was issued in the form of 4,000,000 depositary shares each representing a 1/16 interest in a share of preferred stock and each having a liquidation preference of $25.00. Dividends are payable quarterly (beginning June 1, 1992) at an annual rate of $1.75 per depositary share. The depositary shares are not redeemable by the Company prior to March 1, 1997. However, they may be converted at the election of shareholders into a total of 3,448,275 shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $29.00 per common share. At the Company's annual meeting in April 1992, the stockholders authorized 5,000,000 shares of a new class of preferred stock, designated Class B Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors has been authorized to set the dividend, voting, conversion, redemption, and other rights of this stock when and if issued. 13 - Merger and Integration Costs The components of merger and integration costs related to the 1994, 1993, and 1992 pooling-of-interests transactions are detailed in the following schedule.

Shown separately in the 1993 Statement of Income is the cumulative effect of adopting FAS No. 109 as of January 1, 1993 which increased net income by $10,582,000. Two pooled companies elected early adoption of FAS No. 109 effective January 1, 1992, resulting in a $2,373,000 increase in 1992 earnings. At December 31, 1994, the Company had net operating loss and general business credit carryforwards of $61,446,000 and $330,000, respectively, which can be carried forward to reduce future federal income taxes payable. These carryforwards are principally related to previous tax losses of banks and S&Ls acquired in 1994, 1993, and 1992. Utilization of the carryforwards is limited by tax law to the future earnings of and other limits on the use of tax attributes of acquired companies. Net operating loss carryforwards expire in years 2000 through 2007 and general business credit carryforwards expire in years 1995 through 2002 if not utilized. For financial reporting purposes, a valuation allowance of $12,608,000 has been recognized to offset the deferred tax assets related to these carryforwards and other deferred tax assets whose realization is uncertain. If realized, the tax benefit of $11,794,000 associated with certain net operating loss carryforwards to which this valuation allowance relates will be applied to reduce "cost in excess of net assets acquired" recorded in connection with acquisitions accounted for as purchases. The net change in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for 1994 was a decrease of $603,000. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax liabilities and assets as of December 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993 are as follows: December 31, ----------------------------- 1994 1993 ------------ ------------ (In thousands) Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryforwards. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $29,575 $ 8,159 Provision for credit losses . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 22,518 18,954 Securities fair value adjustment. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14,346 -- Deferred compensation . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2,584 2,043 Core deposit amortization . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2,163 1,857 Write-down of other real estate owned . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1,808 5,446 Merger and integration costs accrual. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1,175 1,132 Pension contribution. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1,093 1,018 Other, net. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . -- 345 ------- ------- Total deferred tax assets . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 75,262 38,954 Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The Company's defined benefit plan covers substantially all employees. The supplemental executive retirement plan provides for payments equal to the benefit which would have been paid under the pension plan and the savings and investment plan if certain Internal Revenue Code limitations had not been imposed including Section 415, Section 401(a)(17), and the Section 401(a)(4) prohibition on deferred compensation as eligible compensation under the pension plan. The plans' funded status and amounts included in the consolidated financial statements are presented below: December 31, 1994 December 31, 1993 ------------------------- ------------------------- Supplemental Supplemental Defined Executive Defined Executive Benefit Retirement Benefit Retirement Plan Plan Plan Plan ---------- ------------ ---------- ------------ (In thousands) Actuarial present value of benefit obligations: Vested benefit obligation . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $(19,360) $ (838) $(20,425) $ (737) ======== ======= ======== ======= Accumulated benefit obligation. . . . . . . . . . . . . . $(20,765) $ (915) $(21,695) $ (799) ======== ======= ======== ======= Projected benefit obligation. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $(27,223) $(1,120) $(28,234) $(1,169) Plan assets, at fair value. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20,375 -- 20,086 -- -------- ------- -------- ------- Funded status . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Both the projected benefit obligation and the prior service benefit reflected this change at December 31, 1993. The accumulated benefit obligation at December 31, 1993 was not affected by this plan amendment. The assets of the defined benefit plan are administered by the trust division of a subsidiary bank and consist of a wide variety of diversified securities including common stocks, corporate bonds, and U.S. Treasury obligations. During 1994, the trust's investments in commingled funds for qualified employee benefit accounts were converted to the Funds IV equity and bond mutual funds. Contributions to the plan are based upon the Projected Unit Credit Actuarial Funding method and are limited to amounts that are currently deductible for tax reporting purposes. Net pension cost includes the following components: Year Ended December 31, ---------------------------------- 1994 1993 1992 -------- -------- -------- (In thousands) Service cost-benefits earned during the year. . . . . . . . . . $2,968 $2,329 $1,441 Interest cost on the projected benefit obligation . . . . . . . 1,891 1,579 1,414 Actual (return) loss on plan assets . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 419 (2,119) (1,397) Net amortization and deferrals. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The savings and investment plan and related trust qualify under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code as a qualified profit-sharing plan and trust. According to the plan, an employee may contribute from 2% to 4% of base salary, which the employer then supplements with a contribution of 50% of the employee's contributed amount. Employees may contribute up to an additional 11% of base salary in pre-tax dollars, but without further employer contributions. The plan also provides for an additional matching contribution of up to an additional 2% of the employee's eligible compensation based on the Company's achievement of established earnings-per-share targets. Vesting in the employer contributions ranges from 20% with three years to 100% with seven years of service. During 1994, employees could elect to invest in one or more of five investment funds, in 10% increments. These funds included a Fourth Financial Corporation common stock fund, a fixed-income fund, an equity fund, an international equity fund, and a money market fund. Forfeitures are used to reduce the Company's contributions. The expense for this plan plus similar plans of pooled companies which were merged with this plan was $2,383,000 in 1994, $1,996,000 in 1993, and $2,111,000 in 1992. This expense includes additional matching contributions of $1,026,000, $629,000, and $625,000 for 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively, attributable to the achievement of performance goals. The restatement of prior period financial statements for the poolings of interests resulted in the inclusion of SBC's contributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") and PBI's noncontributory ESOP. Both plans covered substantially all employees with one year of service. Contributions to these plans were determined by the respective Boards of Directors of SBC and PBI. In 1993 and 1992, expense of the plans totaled $230,000 and $247,000, respectively. The SBC ESOP was terminated February 12, 1993 and all stock was allocated to the participants. The effective termination date of the PBI ESOP was January 4, 1994. The Company does not provide medical coverage for employees subsequent to retirement. Approximately 67 employees who retired prior to January 1, 1995, who were between age 55 and age 65 ("Early retirees") at retirement and who had at least ten years' service have continued participation in the Company's health plan until age 65, but the plan requires that the full cost of providing coverage under the plan be paid by the covered retirees. FAS No. 106, which establishes accounting standards for "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions," was not adopted as it would not have a material effect on the Company's statement of condition and operating results. 16 - Stock Option and Stock Purchase Plans The Company grants options to key employees under incentive stock option plans at prices equal to the market value on the date of grant. Terms of the plans generally provide for the exercise of the options for periods of up to ten years, as determined by the Board of Directors. The following schedule details the shares reserved for issuance at December 31, 1994 under each of the plans, as well as the number of shares under option and exercisable, both also at December 31, 1994.

The optionee must have held the tendered stock for at least six months before it can be used to exercise an option. Transactions under this program are accounted for as the purchase and reissuance of treasury stock. The following is a summary of activity: 1994 1993 1992 ---------- ---------- ---------- Shares tendered . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 17,899 45,399 23,954 Shares issued under the stock option plans (including reissued treasury stock). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 22,785 75,720 37,891 An optionee also may borrow the amount of the option exercise price from the Company. The loans under this program bear interest at the Company's base rate adjusted quarterly and mature annually. Although the Company reserves the right not to renew any loan at maturity, it is the Company's present intention to allow each borrowing for employees to be renewed for additional annual periods. At a minimum, Company stock valued at 125% of the loan amount must collateralize the loan. Such loans, which amounted to $1,894,000 and $1,795,000 at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively, are reported as a reduction of stockholders' equity. The Fourth Financial Corporation 1993 Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan (the "Directors Option Plan") was approved by stockholders and adopted in 1993. The plan will terminate, for the purposes of granting options, in ten years unless the plan is earlier terminated by the Board of Directors. The Directors Option Plan provides that each year, on the first Monday following the Company's annual meeting of stockholders, each non-employee director of the Company will automatically receive an option to acquire 2,000 shares of the Company's common stock and each non-employee director of the Company's subsidiaries will automatically receive an option to acquire 1,000 shares of the Company's common stock. Options issued under the plan are immediately exercisable and will expire ten years from the date of grant. At December 31, 1994, there were 499,700 shares reserved for issuance under the plan of which 81,700 were under option.

Options issued under the plan are exercisable one year from the date of grant. At December 31, 1994, 696,247 shares were reserved for issuance, including 242,694 shares under option. No options under the plan were exercisable at December 31, 1994.

Fully diluted earnings per common share were computed by adjusting net income for interest expense (net of income taxes) associated with pooled companies' convertible debt. The adjusted net income was then divided by the weighted average of common and common-equivalent shares outstanding plus the number of shares which would have been outstanding during the year had the Class A convertible preferred stock and the pooled companies' convertible debt and preferred stock been converted in accordance with their respective governing instruments. Stock options outstanding have been excluded from the computations as they were not materially dilutive. The adjustment of net income for the pooled companies' convertible debt interest expense (net of income taxes) was as follows: 1994 1993 1992 ------ ------ ------ (In thousands) Interest expense adjustment . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $-- $4 $85 18 - Dividends Per Common Share Dividends per common share represent the Company's historical dividends declared without adjustment for the poolings of interests.

Transfers by a subsidiary bank to the Company or any such single affiliate may not exceed 10% and transfers in the aggregate may not exceed 20% of the bank's capital, surplus, and undivided profits, after adding back the allowance for credit losses and subtracting certain intangibles. Based on these limitations, approximately $56,638,000 was available for transfer to the Company at December 31, 1994. In addition, the approval of the Comptroller of the Currency is required if dividends declared by any of the Company's national bank subsidiaries in 1995 exceed the bank's net profits for that year combined with its retained net profits for 1993 and 1994. In 1995, the subsidiary banks may distribute to the Company (in addition to their 1995 net profits) an aggregate of approximately $39,944,000 in dividends without approval from regulatory agencies. 20 - Derivatives and Other Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk In the normal course of business in meeting the investment and financing needs of its customers and managing its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, the Company is a party to various financial instruments. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Statements of Condition. Derivative financial instruments held for trading purposes: The Company enters into forward foreign currency contracts to primarily assist customers with their foreign currency needs related to foreign manufacturing operations, exporting, or importing. These customer-driven contracts are generally hedged with offsetting contracts. The Company's net position in forward foreign currency contracts plus due from bank accounts denominated in foreign currencies cannot exceed $2,500,000 on a daily basis. The market value gains and losses relating to forward foreign currency contracts are recorded at settlement in "Other noninterest income." The contracts held at December 31, 1993 all matured in January 1994. The contracts outstanding at December 31, 1994 will all mature by March 15, 1995. The Company maintains a trading account in which it takes positions in the interest-rate futures markets based on expectations of future market conditions. Interest rate futures contracts are commitments to either purchase or sell designated financial instruments at a future date for a specified price and may be settled in cash or through delivery. Initial margin requirements are met in cash or other instruments and changes in the contract value are settled daily and the gains or losses recorded in "Other noninterest income." The interest rate futures generally have contractual terms of up to six months, although the instruments are rarely held that long. It is the Company's policy to limit the contracts outstanding to $5,000,000. The contract amounts of derivative financial instruments held for trading purposes at December 31, 1994 and 1993 were as follows: Contract Amount ------------------------- December 31, ------------------------- 1994 1993 ---------- ---------- (In thousands) Forward foreign currency contracts Commitments to purchase . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $390 $1,506 Commitments to sell . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 461 211 Interest rate futures contracts . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . -- -- The following table presents the fair value of derivatives held for trading purposes at December 31, 1994 and on average for 1994.

The fair values of forward foreign currency and interest rate futures contracts represent an estimate of the accounting loss the Company would incur if any party to the financial instrument failed completely to perform and any collateral proved to be of no value to the Company. The net trading revenues arising from the Company's derivative trading activities for 1994 were not significant. Derivative financial instruments held for purposes other than trading: From time to time, interest rate swaps are used to modify the interest sensitivity position inherent in the repricing characteristics of specific assets or liabilities. Interest rate swaps involve the contractual exchange of fixed and floating rate interest payments based on established notional amounts. The notional amounts do not represent direct credit exposure. Credit exposure is limited to the net difference between the calculated pay and receive amounts on each transaction which is accrued as interest receivable or payable and generally netted and settled quarterly. The net interest accrued and received or paid on the interest rate swaps is accounted for as an adjustment to the interest income or interest expense on the assets or liabilities, respectively, that the swap was intended to modify. Net interest income for 1994 includes $1,544,000 attributable to interest rate swaps. The effect of interest rate swaps on 1993 was to increase net interest income by $19,000. At December 31, 1994 and 1993 interest rate swaps were as follows: December 31, 1994 ----------------------------------------------------------------- Weighted Notional Average Weighted Average Rate -------------------------- Amount Term Received Paid ---------- -------- ---------- ---------- (In thousands) Receive fixed rate . . . . . . . . . . . . $151,000 18 months (1) 6.05% 5.90% Pay fixed rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 100,000 4 months 5.79% 4.25% December 31, 1993 ----------------------------------------------------------------- Weighted Notional Average Weighted Average Rate -------------------------- Amount Term Received Paid ---------- -------- ---------- ---------- (In thousands) Receive fixed rate . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 51,000 29 months (1) 5.89% 3.47% Pay fixed rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 200,000 10 months 3.44% 3.94% <FN> - ------------- (1) The term of $50.0 million of these swaps may extend up to an additional 48 months after the initial term depending on the variable rate index at the end of the initial term and each quarter thereafter as compared to that same index when the swaps were initiated.

Residential mortgage loans held for sale included $206,000 of such loans at December 31, 1994. These commitments were all met in January 1995. Other financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk: Single-family mortgage loans which the Company's subsidiaries originate for sale are sold without recourse. However, the Company is obligated under recourse provisions related to $39,873,000 of loans associated with its purchased mortgage servicing. The Company assesses the credit risk of these and other loan commitments when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as the customer is in compliance with the conditions established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for direct extensions of credit. The Company evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, real estate, equipment, and income-producing commercial properties. Standby letters of credit irrevocably obligate the issuing bank to pay a third-party beneficiary when a customer fails to repay an outstanding debt instrument or fails to perform some contractual non-financial obligation. Standby letters of credit are primarily issued to secure bonds from insurance companies, provide security for self-insured portions of workers compensation insurance, and collateralize guaranties or secure loans to other financial institutions. A commercial letter of credit is issued to facilitate trade or commerce. Under the terms of a commercial letter of credit, drafts will be drawn when the underlying transaction is consummated as intended. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. Substantially all letters of credit mature within two years. The following table summarizes the contract amount of the Company's commitments to extend credit.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures in accordance with FAS No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments." Because there is no market for many of these financial instruments, the Company has no basis to determine whether these estimated fair values would be indicative of the value that could be obtained in an arm's-length sale. Cash and due from banks: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated statements of condition for cash and due from banks approximate those assets' fair values. Interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions: Fair values of these fixed-rate certificates of deposit were estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates with similar maturities. Federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell: The carrying amounts of federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell approximate their fair values. Securities: Fair values for debt and equity securities were based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices were not available, fair values were based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments. Loans and leases: Except for variable-rate one-to-four-family mortgage loans, the fair values of variable-rate loans that reprice in accordance with indices were estimated to be equal to carrying values. A significant portion of a credit card portfolio's value results from the ongoing cardholder relationship that generates receivables and fees over time. This relationship value is not defined as a financial instrument and therefore not disclosed under FAS No. 107. The carrying values of the credit card receivables approximate their fair values. The fair values for one-to-four- family variable-rate and fixed- rate mortgage loans were based on quoted market prices of similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair values of other fixed-rate loans were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms. Because the allowance for credit losses provides for the credit risk inherent in the loan and lease portfolio, neither the cash flows nor discount rates were adjusted to reflect changes in credit risk subsequent to when loans were originated. Nonperforming loans have not been discounted. Deposits: For deposits with no defined maturities, demand deposits, interest-bearing checking deposits, and savings deposits, FAS No. 107 defines fair value as the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Included in "Intangible assets" at December 31, 1994 was $12,727,000 (net of accumulated amortization) representing the value of core deposits assumed in deposit assumption transactions. The value of the core deposit relationships built by the Company over time was neither considered in the fair value amounts nor recorded as an intangible asset in the statements of condition. The carrying amounts for variable-rate certificates of deposit approximated their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit were estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates with similar maturities. Federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and other borrowings: The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, borrowings under repurchase agreements, and other short-term borrowings approximate their fair values. Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings: The carrying amounts of the variable-rate FHLB borrowings approximate their fair values. A discounted cash flow analysis, using the current rates on FHLB borrowings of similar maturities, was used to estimate the fair values of the fixed-rate borrowings. Long-term debt: The fair value of the Company's long-term debt was estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the Company's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. Off-balance-sheet instruments: No premium or discount was ascribed to loan commitments because virtually all funding will be at current market rates. The estimated fair values of the interest rate swaps generally represent an estimate of the amount the Company would receive or pay to terminate the agreement at the reporting date. These values were based on dealer quotes with respect to the amortizing swaps. For swaps with fixed maturities, the estimated values represent the present value of the cash flow stream discounted at current interest rate spreads. Fair values of forward foreign currency and interest rate futures contracts were based on quoted market prices. 22 - Commitments and Contingencies At December 31, 1994, the Company was committed to make future rental payments under several long-term lease agreements for land, buildings, and equipment. There were no material capital leases. Future minimum rental payments required under operating leases that have initial or remaining non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year as of December 31, 1994 are as follows: Years ending December 31, (In thousands) ------------------------- -------------- 1995 . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 4,491 1996 . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4,021 1997 . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3,583 1998 . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3,392 1999 . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2,697 Later years . . . . . . . . . 13,089 ------- Total . . . . . . . . . . . $31,273 ======= Total rental expense (net of sublease income, which is not material) amounted to $5,214,000, $5,676,000, and $7,005,000 for 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. The Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Claims in various amounts of up to approximately $20,000,000 have been asserted in some of these proceedings. However, after consultation with legal counsel, management believes that potential liabilities, if any, arising from these claims would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or financial condition. 23 - Condensed Financial Information of Parent Corporation In the following condensed financial information of Fourth Financial Corporation (parent only), investments in subsidiaries are recorded using the equity method of accounting.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the 1992 financial statements of Commercial Landmark Corporation, Western National Bancorporation, Inc. or Ponca Bancshares, Inc., which statements reflect interest income constituting 14% of consolidated interest income. Those statements were audited by other auditors and our opinion, insofar as it relates to data included for these companies, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Fourth Financial Corporation at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. As discussed in Notes 1, 5 and 14 to the consolidated financial statements, in 1993 the Company changed its method of accounting for income taxes and investment securities. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Ernst & Young LLP Wichita, Kansas January 17, 1995, except for the last paragraph of Note 5, as to which the date is February 23, 1995 WESTERN NATIONAL BANCORPORATION, INC.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Performance Summary Net income for 1994 was $83.1 million compared to $77.3 million for 1993 and $65.2 million for 1992. Fully diluted earnings per share were $2.74, $2.55, and $2.21 for 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. For 1994, return on assets and return on common equity were 1.13% and 15.34%, respectively. Return on assets was 1.16% for 1993 and 1.10% for 1992; return on common equity was 15.25% and 14.39% for the respective prior periods. These financial results reflect acquisitions accounted for as poolings of interests for the entire three-year period, as prior periods have been restated. However, acquisitions accounted for using the purchase method of accounting are only included in the results of operations for the periods subsequent to acquisition. The following schedule details the acquisitions completed during 1992, 1993, and 1994.

A new accounting standard, Financial Accounting Standard ("FAS") No. 109 - Accounting for Income Taxes, was implemented effective January 1, 1993 and resulted in an addition to 1993 income of $10.6 million ($.35 per fully diluted share). Two of the companies acquired in pooling-of- interests transactions in 1993 had elected to adopt FAS No. 109 early, resulting in the $2.4-million ($.08 per fully diluted share) income item in 1992. An extraordinary item of $130,000 ($.01 per fully diluted share) in 1992 reflects the utilization of a net operating loss carryforward by First Dodge, a pooled company. Income before the extraordinary item and the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle was $83.1 million, $66.7 million, and $62.7 million for 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. Net interest income increased by $12.5 million to total $276.9 million for 1994 as compared to $264.4 million for 1993. The increase in net interest income was principally related to the increased volume of interest-earning assets from purchase acquisitions and internal loan growth. Total average interest-earning assets were $6.6 billion for 1994, a $598.8-million, or 9.9%, increase over the prior year. Comparing 1994 and 1993, average loans and leases increased $545.9 million. The increase in net interest income attributable to the increased volume of interest-earning assets was partially offset by a decrease in the net yield on earning assets to 4.30% in 1994 from 4.54% in 1993. The decline in net yield reflects the impact that the cyclical increase in interest rates has had on the Company's cost of funds. The provision for credit losses totaled $275,000 and $7.0 million for 1994 and 1993, respectively. Pooled companies accounted for $4.6 million of the provision for 1993. The lower 1994 provision reflects the strong allowance for credit losses and continued improvement in credit quality as demonstrated by a lower level of nonperforming assets and fewer net charge-offs. Noninterest income was $97.8 million in 1994, a $11.5-million increase over the 1993 noninterest income of $86.3 million. Investment securities gains recognized during 1994 totaled $3.6 million compared to $1.5 million for 1993. Fees collected in the normal course of business increased $9.0 million or 10.7% to total $93.7 million for 1994 from $84.7 million for 1993. Approximately 63% of the increase in fee income was attributable to business combinations accounted for as purchases. Increases in trust fees, service charges on deposit accounts, and bank card fees were also due to business development, the larger customer base, and price changes. Noninterest expense totaled $250.4 million in 1994, down $3.9 million as compared to 1993. For 1994 the gains on the sales of other real estate and nonperforming assets exceeded the costs of operation of such assets by $1.1 million. In 1993 the $3.3 million of net costs of operations of other real estate and nonperforming assets was primarily attributable to a pooled company. Merger and integration costs associated with poolings of interests totaled $2.8 million and $7.6 million for 1994 and 1993, respectively. Operating expenses (noninterest expense less merger and integration costs and net costs of operations of other real estate and nonperforming assets) increased 2.4% to total $248.6 million in 1994. The Company's efficiency ratio (operating expense/fee income plus tax- equivalent net interest income) was 65.51% for the current year compared to 67.54% for the prior year. Operating expense in 1993 included $5.9 million of accelerated core deposit and purchased mortgage servicing amortization, data processing hardware depreciation, software amortization, and other unusual items. Between 1993 and 1992 income before the extraordinary item and the cumulative effect of the change in accounting for income taxes increased $4.0 million to total $66.7 million for 1993 from $62.7 million for 1992. The $23.1-million increase in net interest income was related to the increased volume of interest-earning assets principally attributable to acquisitions. The larger customer base plus aggressive sales efforts resulted in a larger volume of service charge transactions, expanded brokerage and annuity sales activities, and additional merchant and credit cardholder sales volumes which contributed to the $5.5-million increase in noninterest income. The $14.4-million decrease in the provision for credit losses between 1993 and 1992 reflected a strong allowance for credit losses and improvement in credit quality as demonstrated by a lower level of nonperforming assets and fewer net charge-offs in 1993 as compared to 1992. The $35.8-million increase in noninterest expense principally reflects the Company's substantial acquisition activity in 1993 and 1992. Net Interest Income For 1994, net interest income amounted to $276.9 million, representing an increase of $12.5 million or 4.7% over the $264.4 million earned during 1993. On a fully tax-equivalent basis, net interest income increased 4.0% to total $285.7 million in 1994 from $274.6 million in 1993. The increase in net interest income was attributable to the increase in earning assets associated with acquisitions and loan growth. Total average interest-earning assets were $6.6 billion for 1994, a $598.8-million or 9.9% increase over 1993. Purchase acquisitions completed in 1994 and 1993 account for most of this increase. Comparing 1994 and 1993, average loans and leases increased $545.9 million or 18.0%. Approximately 59% of the increase was attributable to internal loan growth with the remainder due to purchase acquisitions. Average investment securities only increased $98.0 million or 3.3% as the proceeds from maturities and prepayments were used to fund loan growth. Average deposits did not increase significantly. The increased deposits from acquisitions were offset by attrition, a reflection of increased bank and nonbank competition. As a result, the increased earning assets were principally funded by increases in federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase of $242.7 million and Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings of $251.1 million. Average interest-earning assets of $6.0 billion in 1993 were $704.7 million larger than the 1992 average interest-earning assets of $5.3 billion. This increase, principally due to acquisitions, resulted in the $23.1-million increase in net interest income for 1993 as compared to 1992. During both 1994 and 1993, the increase in net interest income attributable to the increased volume of interest-earning assets was partially offset by a decrease in the net yield on earning assets. The 1994 net yield of 4.30% declined from 4.54% for 1993 and 4.73% for 1992. The declining net yield reflects the difference in repricing characteristics of the Company's assets and liabilities. Its deposits and borrowed funds have a shorter duration than its loans and securities. Consequently, as interest rates decreased in 1992, interest-bearing liabilities repriced faster than interest-earning assets resulting in a higher net yield during that period. However, during 1993, as the proceeds from investment security maturities and prepayments were reinvested at the lower rates which prevailed through 1993, the net yield declined. During 1994, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System increased the discount rate 175 basis points. The resulting higher market interest rates were reflected in the increasing cost of interest-bearing liabilities and a lower net yield. Loan fees included in net interest income amounted to $11.2 million, $11.5 million, and $8.5 million for 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. The increase in loan fees between 1993 and 1992 reflected an increase in the volume of residential mortgage loan originations associated with home purchases and the refinancing of existing mortgages, both of which were stimulated by the relatively low mortgage interest rates. The pace of residential mortgage loan originations decreased during 1994 as mortgage interest rates increased. Also during 1994, origination fees were waived on $47.8 million of loans (1,321 loans) originated under the Company's new program for low-to-moderate income borrowers. The following table provides the dollar volume and the number of residential mortgage loan originations during each of the last three years.

(2) Nonaccrual loans are included in loans and leases. Provision for Credit Losses The provisions for credit losses were $275,000, $7.0 million, and $21.4 million for 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. The provisions for 1993 and 1992 include $4.6 million and $5.8 million, respectively, associated with the current and prior year poolings of interests. The lower provision for credit losses in 1994 reflects the strong allowance for credit losses and continued improvement in credit quality as demonstrated by fewer net charge-offs and a lower level of nonperforming assets. Net charge-offs for 1994 totaled $1.5 million or .04% of average loans as compared to net charge-offs of $17.0 million or .56% of average loans for 1993 and $24.1 million or .83% of average loans for 1992. Nonperforming loans at December 31, 1994 were $29.6 million, down from $34.3 million at year-end 1993 and $39.1 million at year-end 1992. The ratio of allowance for credit losses to nonperforming loans increased to 242.82% at December 31, 1994, compared with 196.96% at December 31, 1993 and 190.39% at December 31, 1992. Noninterest Income Total noninterest income was $97.8 million for 1994, representing an increase of $11.5 million or 13.4% over the $86.3 million recorded for 1993. Investment securities gains and unusual revenues increased $2.5 million and fees collected in the normal course of business increased $9.0 million or 10.7% to total $93.7 million for 1994 from $84.7 million for 1993. Approximately 63% of the increase in fees collected in the normal course of business was attributable to business combinations accounted for as purchases. Investment securities gains realized during 1994 totaled $3.6 million compared to $1.5 million in 1993. Substantially all of the securities gains recognized in 1994 were recorded in the first quarter when, in anticipation of rising interest rates, the Company elected to sell $448.7 million of its available-for-sale securities. In addition $151.2 million of investment securities principally acquired in the Equity acquisition were sold with no gain or loss recognized. The $1.5 million of investment securities gains recognized in 1993 were due principally to called bonds. During the second quarter of 1994 a gain of $471,000 was realized on the sale of the Company's investment in a data processing company which had been accumulated through various bank acquisitions. The most significant changes in fee income between 1994 and 1993 occurred in trust fees, service charges on deposit accounts, and bank card fees. Trust fees increased $2.5 million or 13.3%, service charges on deposit accounts increased $4.7 million or 14.1%, and bank card fees increased $3.8 million or 36.5%. Exclusive of purchase transactions, 1994 trust fees, service charges, and bank card fees each increased approximately 10% over the amounts earned in 1993. The increase in trust fees was the result of increased sales efforts and the introduction of Funds IV, a family of seven publicly traded no-load mutual funds managed by the trust division. The increase in service charges was attributable to both consumer and commercial customers. These increased revenues were due to commercial and retail account pricing changes, a reduction in waived fees, and a larger volume of fee-based transactions. The increased bank card fees reflect internal growth plus the acquisition of Equity, including its credit card division that serviced approximately 77,000 customer accounts. Brokerage and annuity sales commissions were $3.6 million for 1994 compared to $5.4 million for 1993. The $1.8-million decrease in brokerage and annuity sales commissions reflects a reduced volume of brokerage transactions associated with uncertain market conditions and the impact of an internal reorganization on this business. Foreign currency trading profits and foreign transaction fees increased 45.9% to total $1.1 million for 1994. The Company enters into foreign currency contracts primarily to assist customers with their foreign currency needs related to their foreign manufacturing operations, exporting, or importing. Other fee income for 1994 included an $82,000 loss on the sale of residential mortgage loans held for sale as compared with mortgage- loan-sales gains of $584,000 realized for 1993. Also included in other fee income were fees for providing data processing services to correspondent banks of $120,000 and $666,000 for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. These services have been substantially discontinued. Total noninterest income was $86.3 million for 1993, as compared to $80.8 million for 1992. Investment securities gains were $1.5 million in 1993 and $2.9 million in 1992. The 1992 lawsuit settlement gain of $1.5 million was attributable to a pooled company. Fees collected in the normal course of business increased 11.2% to $84.7 million for 1993 from $76.2 million for 1992. The increased fees were principally due to increased service charges on deposit accounts and brokerage and annuity sales fees. Real estate loan service fees declined $883,000 between 1993 and 1992 due to accelerated prepayments on serviced loans in 1993 caused by the high volume of mortgage loan refinancings which was stimulated by low interest rates. The following table provides an analysis of noninterest income segregated between fees collected in the normal course of business and other revenues for the past three years.

Noninterest expense for each of these years includes certain nonoperating items such as net costs of operation of other real estate and nonperforming assets, merger and integration costs, and other unusual items. Gains from sales of other real estate and nonperforming assets exceeded the costs of operation of such assets, resulting in a net gain of $1.1 million in 1994 as compared to the net costs recorded in 1993 and 1992 of $3.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively. The costs of nonperforming assets in 1993 were principally attributable to a pooled company. As detailed in Note 13 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, merger and integration costs for each of the years included write-downs of excess facilities and equipment, severance and other compensation, system conversion costs, legal, accounting, and other costs all associated with the merger and integration of pooling-of- interests acquisitions. Operating expense amounted to $248.6 million and $242.7 million for 1994 and 1993, respectively. The 1993 operating expense included several unusual items: $1.2 million accelerated data processing hardware depreciation and software amortization related to the Company's commitment to improve its technology and systems; $2.8 million of additional core deposit intangibles amortization and $768,000 of FDIC exit/entrance fee amortization both associated with disintermediation of acquired deposits; and an acceleration of purchased mortgage servicing rights amortization associated with a more rapid pay-off of mortgage loans serviced for other investors. Amortization of purchased mortgage servicing rights was $993,000 in 1994 as compared to $2.1 million for 1993. Exclusive of these unusual items, operating expense increased $11.9 million, which was attributable to business combinations accounted for as purchases. The Company's efficiency ratio (operating expense/fee income plus tax- equivalent net interest income) was 65.51% for 1994 as compared to 67.54% for 1993. Operating expense increased $31.9 million or 15.1% to total $242.7 million for 1993 from $210.8 million for 1992. The Company's efficiency ratio was 67.54% for 1993 as compared to 64.12% for 1992. In addition to the unusual 1993 expense items, the increased operating expenses and efficiency ratio reflect operating expenses of purchased business combinations subsequent to consummation (including intangible asset amortization) and normal inflation-related and other cost increases. The large number of acquisitions completed in 1992 and 1993 required a substantial commitment of resources for thorough assessment of credit and other business risks; software systems conversion and operations consolidation; and advertising, training, and other costs associated with changing to the BANK IV sales and credit culture, products, and services. The following table presents an analysis of noninterest expense for the past three years.

Shown separately in the 1993 Statement of Income is the $10.6 million cumulative effect of adopting FAS No. 109 as of January 1, 1993. Two pooled companies elected early adoption of FAS No. 109, resulting in a $2.4-million increase in 1992 earnings. Income tax expense amounted to $40.9 million, $22.7 million, and $19.5 million for 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. The higher tax expense in 1994 was attributable to a higher level of income before taxes. Income tax expense for 1993 was reduced by changes in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets principally associated with net operating losses of pooled entities. In 1992, alternative minimum tax ("AMT") credits were recognized, reducing the tax provision to the amount which would have been recorded using the AMT provisions of the tax law. At December 31, 1994, the Company had net operating loss and general business credit carryforwards of $61.4 million and $330,000, respectively, which can be carried forward to reduce future federal income taxes payable. These carryforwards are principally related to previous tax losses of banks and S&Ls acquired in 1994, 1993, and 1992. Utilization of the carryforwards is limited by tax law to the future earnings of and other limits on the use of tax attributes of acquired companies. Net operating loss carryforwards expire in years 2000 through 2007 and general business credit carryforwards expire in years 1995 through 2002 if not utilized. At December 31, 1994, for financial reporting purposes, a valuation allowance of $12.6 million offset the deferred tax assets related to these carryforwards and other deferred tax assets whose realization is uncertain. If realized, the tax benefit of $11.8 million associated with certain net operating loss carryforwards to which this valuation allowance relates will be applied to reduce "cost in excess of net assets acquired" recorded in connection with acquisitions accounted for as purchases. Statements of Condition Total assets amounted to $7.7 billion, $6.9 billion, and $6.7 billion at December 31, 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. During 1994 and 1993, the Company completed five bank and S&L acquisitions accounted for as purchases and one bank deposit assumption transaction. Assets acquired in these six transactions totaled $1.1 billion. The statements of condition for all of the periods presented include six business combinations accounted for as poolings of interests. In aggregate the pooled companies had assets of $1.1 billion. The following sections describe the changes in the major Statement of Condition categories. Loans and Leases Period-end loans and leases increased $653.8 million or 19.5% to total $4.0 billion at December 31, 1994. Loans added through bank and S&L purchase transactions totaled $296.5 million and net internal loan growth was $357.3 million. Increases were realized in both commercial and retail categories. The commercial loan categories increased an aggregate of $445.7 million or 23.6% to total $2.3 billion at December 31, 1994. Retail loan categories increased $208.0 million or 14.2% to total $1.7 billion. In addition to the effect of acquisitions, these increases were attributable to a continued emphasis on business development efforts and increasing credit demands associated with the strengthening of the economy in Kansas and Oklahoma. Total loans also increased between December 31, 1993 and 1992. Loans added through bank purchase transactions totaled $121.7 million. Net internal loan growth was $307.6 million. During 1992 and 1991, both commercial and retail loan demand were affected by an uncertain economic environment, and except for the origination and refinancing activity in loans secured by 1-4 family mortgages, most loan categories showed little change. Total loans decreased $183.3 million or 6.0% to $2.9 billion at December 31, 1991 from $3.1 billion at year-end 1990. The decreases, which were realized in almost all categories, were attributable to the lack of loan demand and the effect of implementing enhanced underwriting standards which emphasize cash flow rather than collateral-based lending. Credit card loans decreased $16.3 million, or 16.9%, between year-ends 1991 and 1990 as an affinity group exercised its option to purchase its portfolio from the Company. The Company makes most of its loans within Kansas, Oklahoma, and the contiguous states and to Kansas- and Oklahoma-based customers that do business in other states. The Company's commercial and industrial loans principally are made to middle market and small businesses. At December 31, 1994, the Company had 15 lending relationships in which the aggregate loan amount was $10.0 million or more. The Company had no single lending relationship with an aggregate loan amount outstanding in excess of $20 million. The Company had no industry concentrations greater than 10.0% of total loans outstanding and no foreign loans at December 31, 1994.

The largest industry concentrations are service businesses and manufacturing, each representing approximately 5% of total loans. Agriculture: Loans secured by feeder cattle and other livestock accounted for approximately 65% of the agriculture portfolio at December 31, 1994. The remainder of the agriculture portfolio is secured by equipment, farm assets and accounts receivable and inventory, none of which represent a significant concentration. Energy: Loans secured by proven oil and gas reserves constitute substantially all of the energy loan portfolio. Generally, the Company will loan no more than 60% of the discounted value of such proven reserves. Annual engineering reports are required on all production loans of $250,000 or more. These reports include cash flow analyses on all properties and provide estimates of remaining recoverable reserves, rates of recovery, operating expenses, and taxes. There are no oil rig acquisition loans, and loans to well-servicing companies and suppliers are not material. Bank Stock: Loans for the purpose of purchasing or holding a material interest in a bank make up this portfolio. Commercial Real Estate: At December 31, 1994, approximately 49% of the portfolio was in the Kansas markets of Wichita, Topeka and Kansas City. The Tulsa and Oklahoma City markets represented an additional 34% of this portfolio. Permanent commercial real estate loans include loans in the Company's market for small office buildings/parks; neighborhood strip shopping centers; small manufacturing machine shop buildings; office warehouse properties; medical offices; apartment buildings; and loans secured by farm land. Also included in this portfolio are loans for purposes other than funding the acquisition of the collateral properties and in which cash flows from the properties are not the principal source of repayment. Approximately 68% of the loans in the permanent commercial real estate portfolio are floating rate loans. Most of the remainder of this portfolio are "mini-perms" with five-year maturities. Secured by 1-4 Family Residences: The 1-4 family residence portfolio consists of loans secured by residences located primarily in Kansas and Oklahoma. The majority of the loans are permanent first mortgage loans with the remainder consisting of home equity credit lines and other loans secured by second mortgages. Residential Mortgage Loans Held For Sale: Residential mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market value determined on an aggregate basis. Maturity Distribution and Interest Sensitivity of Loans The maturity distribution of loans outstanding as of December 31, 1994 (excluding real estate-secured by 1-4 family residences, consumer, credit card, educational, and lease financing) by type and sensitivity to changes in interest rates is as follows: Remaining Maturity -------------------------------------------------- Over One Year One Year Through Over Five or Less Five Years Years Total ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------- (In thousands) Commercial and industrial . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 616,210 $328,479 $ 74,064 $1,018,753 Agriculture . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 194,422 29,407 3,471 227,300 Energy . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 79,892 36,227 13,623 129,742 Bank stock . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25,058 50 65 25,173 Real estate-construction . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 97,349 32,427 4,077 133,853 Real estate-permanent commercial and other . . . . . . 135,578 372,376 180,825 688,779 Other . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 19,451 7,826 269 27,546 ---------- -------- -------- ---------- Total . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $1,167,960 $806,792 $276,394 $2,251,146 ========== ======== ======== ========== Loans with fixed interest rates . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 328,624 $306,275 $ 58,291 $ 693,190 Loans with floating interest rates . . . . . . . . . . 839,336 500,517 218,103 1,557,956 ---------- -------- -------- ---------- Total . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $1,167,960 $806,792 $276,394 $2,251,146 ========== ======== ======== ========== Nonperforming Assets Nonperforming assets consist of nonaccrual loans, troubled debt restructurings, and other real estate and nonperforming assets. A loan is placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest is due and has remained unpaid for 90 days or more unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. A currently performing loan also may be placed on nonaccrual status when there is reasonable doubt as to the ability of the borrower to continue to pay principal or interest. Nonaccrual loans at December 31, 1994 included $7.9 million of these "performing/nonperforming" loans. Troubled debt restructurings are those loans for which the original contractual terms have been modified to provide a concession because of a deterioration in the borrower's financial condition. Other real estate and nonperforming assets include assets acquired from loan settlements and foreclosures. Generally, principal and interest payments received on nonaccrual loans are applied as reductions of principal. For this reason and because of charge-offs, the book value of such loans understates the remaining contractual obligation of the borrowers. As of December 31, 1994, the carrying value of nonaccrual loans had been charged down to 77.52% of the customers' contractual principal obligations. Also, the carrying values of other real estate and nonperforming assets have been written down to current estimates of their fair values less a reserve for the estimated costs to sell the properties. Interest income of $1.4 million has been included in income for the year ended December 31, 1994 on loans which at year-end were considered nonaccrual loans or troubled debt restructurings. Interest of $5.1 million would have been recorded for the year if these loans had been current in accordance with their original terms. The following table presents nonperforming assets and those loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments at December 31 for the past five years.

At December 31, 1994, total nonperforming assets represented .88% of total loans plus other real estate owned and nonperforming assets and .46% of total assets as compared to 1.31% of total loans plus other real estate owned and nonperforming assets and .64% of total assets at December 31, 1993. Banks and S&Ls purchased during 1994 added $652,000 to the 1994 nonperforming asset total. The 1994, 1993, and 1992 pooling-of-interests combinations accounted for $21.6 million, $34.4 million, $62.3 million, and $89.0 million of nonperforming assets at year-end 1993, 1992, 1991, and 1990, respectively. Management continues to focus on asset quality. An emphasis is placed on pro-active management of problem credits, early detection of potential problems, and timely charge-offs. A due diligence team is responsible for assessing potential problem loans in banks to be acquired prior to the execution of a definitive agreement. A separate work-out department is responsible for the resolution and collection of problem assets. An analysis of nonperforming loans by type is provided in the following table. There are no significant concentrations of nonperforming assets in any one market or industry.

Also included in the classified loans are certain other loans which are deemed to be potential problems. Potential problem loans are those loans which are currently performing but where known information about trends or uncertainties or possible credit problems of the borrowers causes management to have concerns as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with present repayment terms, possibly resulting in the transfer of such loans to nonperforming status. These loans totaled $12.2 million at December 31, 1994. Allowance for Credit Losses The allowance for credit losses is the amount deemed by management to be reasonably necessary to provide for possible losses on loans that may become uncollectible. Additions to the allowance are charged to expense as the provision for credit losses. Loan losses and recoveries are charged or credited directly to the allowance. It is the Company's policy to charge off any loan or portion of that loan when it is deemed to be uncollectible in the ordinary course of business. An evaluation of the overall quality of the portfolio is performed to determine the necessary level of the allowance for credit losses. This evaluation takes into consideration the classification of loans and the application of loss estimates to these classifications. It is the responsibility of management in each of the Company's markets to classify its loans as pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful, or loss. The classification criteria are established by the credit administration function of the Company, which is independent of all lending functions, and are intended to be consistent with the criteria applied by federal banking system examiners. These classifications take into consideration all sources of repayment, underlying collateral, the value of such collateral, and current and anticipated economic conditions, trends, and uncertainties. The Company has an independent loan review function which periodically reviews the loans and the classifications. The Company's bank subsidiaries also are subjected to periodic examinations by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Loss factors are developed by loan type and classification using historical loss data and statistical modeling techniques. The application of these loss factors to the portfolio classifications combined with analyses of general economic conditions, trends in portfolio volume, maturity, and composition, and estimates of potential future losses on specific large loans and those loans requiring special attention provide management with data essential to identify and estimate the credit risk inherent in the portfolio. The allowance for credit losses reflects the result of these estimates, and is deemed to be adequate at each balance sheet date. As of December 31, 1994, the allowance for credit losses equaled $71.9 million or 242.82% of nonperforming loans. Comparatively, the allowance for credit losses amounted to $67.6 million or 196.96% of nonperforming loans at December 31, 1993. The strong coverage ratio of the allowance for credit losses to nonperforming loans at December 31, 1994 reflected the continuing emphasis management is placing on resolving problem loans, managing the risk profile of the Company, and prudently reserving for identifiable risks.

At December 31, 1993, the Company elected to adopt FAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." In accordance with FAS No. 115, prior period financial statements were not restated to reflect the change in accounting principle. Pursuant to FAS No. 115 the securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair value. The total carrying value of the available-for-sale securities portfolio included unrealized losses of $36.8 million at December 31, 1994 and unrealized gains of $41.2 million at December 31, 1993. Exclusive of the adjustment to fair value for the available-for- sale portfolio, total investment securities increased $52.4 million between December 31, 1994 and 1993. Acquisition transactions accounted for as purchases added $269.3 million of investment securities. However, offsetting this increase was the use of the proceeds of maturities and prepayments for loan growth. Between December 31, 1993 and 1992 the investment securities portfolio increased $313.4 million, exclusive of the adjustment to fair value for the available-for-sale portfolio. Acquisition transactions accounted for as purchases added $112.0 million. The remainder of the increase was attributable to the Company becoming more fully invested. Excluding U.S. Treasury obligations and obligations of U.S. government agencies and corporations, there were no security holdings of any one issuer at December 31, 1994 that exceeded 10% of consolidated stockholders' equity. The tables below summarize the maturity and yield distribution of debt securities in the investment portfolio at December 31, 1994.

(2) Yields on tax-preferred securities are shown on a fully tax-equivalent basis assuming a marginal tax rate of 35%. At December 31, 1994 the held-to-maturity portfolio included $637.9 million of floating-rate mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by U.S. government agencies or corporations. The yields on these securities float with various indices, principally the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") Board 11th District average cost of funds index, which reduces the interest rate risk associated with these investments as the changes in these indices have historically correlated with the changes in the Company's cost of funds. Also included in the held-to- maturity portfolio at December 31, 1994 were $663.0 million of collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMO"). These investments are secured by mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by agencies or corporations of the U.S. government. Of this CMO portfolio, $140.6 million also float on a monthly basis, most with the FHLB 11th District average cost of funds. The remaining $522.4 million of fixed-rate CMOs in the held-to-maturity portfolio are comprised of classes with an anticipated average duration of two to three years. The December 31, 1994 available-for-sale mortgage-backed securities portfolio was comprised principally of securities issued by U.S. government agencies and corporations with an estimated average duration of up to three years. In February 1995, the Company sold $424.0 million of fixed-rate debt securities classified as available-for-sale, resulting in a gross realized loss of $22.4 million. The debt securities sold consisted primarily of U.S. treasury obligations and obligations of U.S. government agencies. Deposits Total deposits increased $210.6 million or 3.9% between December 31, 1994 and 1993. During the second quarter of 1994, the Company acquired $548.0 million of deposits through acquisitions accounted for as purchases. The increased deposits from acquisitions were partially offset by attrition associated with increased bank and nonbank competition and the sale of three branches with deposits totaling $37.9 million. In response to the increased bank and nonbank competition, time deposit products have been offered which provide the customer with the opportunity to reprice the instruments during their term. At December 31, 1994, $207.5 million of these adjustable-rate time deposits were outstanding. In late December 1994, the Company initiated a special time deposit promotion for deposits with 7-month and 13-month maturities, and in January 1995, the Company introduced a new money market savings product which has a rate that is tied to a money market fund index. Core deposits (demand, interest checking, savings, and time deposits under $100,000) represented 91.3% of total deposits at December 31, 1994 compared to 92.8% at December 31, 1993.

Some portion of these funds were new funds for the Company and the remainder were previously in interest-bearing deposit accounts with the Company. Asset and Liability Management Interest Rate Risk: The Company evaluates its interest rate risk using various tools, including interest sensitivity simulation and gap analysis. From time to time, interest rate swaps are used to modify the interest sensitivity position inherent in the repricing characteristics of specific assets or liabilities. The net interest received or paid on the interest rate swaps is accounted for as an adjustment to the interest income or interest expense on the assets or liabilities, respectively, that the swap was intended to modify. Additional information about the Company's interest rate swaps is included in Note 20 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The following table presents the Company's interest sensitivity gap position as of December 31, 1994. Most assets and liabilities have been included in the table based on the timing of their contractual maturities or repricing characteristics. Fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities are included in repricing-maturity categories based upon estimates of prepayments provided by a third-party market information service. These estimates may vary depending upon both the volatility and the level of market interest rates in relationship to the coupon rates of the underlying mortgages. Interest-bearing checking and savings deposits are included in the under-three-months category. This table does not indicate the effect the repricing of assets and liabilities would have on net interest income. Also, it does not reflect interest rate exposures, such as basis risk (the changing relationships between asset rates and liability rates of similar maturity), prepayment risk, intra-period sensitivity, and the effect of interest rate floors and ceilings.

The Company has a negative cumulative repricing gap in the one- year horizon. Consequently, a rising rate environment would adversely impact the net interest margin. Simulation modeling has demonstrated that a sudden and large increase in rates or a dramatic narrowing in the spread between asset yields and liability costs could result in a significant adverse impact on the net interest margin; however, the adverse impact is more moderate if interest rates increase gradually. The adverse impact of rising rates could also be mitigated by loan growth. As described in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company sold $424.0 million of low-yielding, fixed-rate securities in February 1995 to reposition its statement of condition to reduce the Company's interest rate sensitivity. The proceeds of the sale are being used to reduce short-term borrowings and reinvest in variable rate or short-term instruments. Liquidity: The Company's consolidated statements of cash flows are presented elsewhere in this report. These statements distinguish cash flows as operating, investing, and financing. They provide a historical accounting of the Company's ability to generate cash required to meet its customers' and creditors' demands. Certain statement-of-condition items and ratios are indicative of the Company's liquidity position at December 31, 1994. The loans-to-deposits and loans-to-assets ratios averaged 64.4% and 48.9%, respectively, during 1994. Also during 1994, average core deposits (demand, interest checking, savings, and time deposits under $100,000) represented 92.1% of total deposits and 69.9% of average assets. At December 31, 1994, federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, and other borrowings totaled $1.4 billion. At that same date, additional borrowing liquidity was available in the form of $763.6 million of unpledged investment securities classified as either held-to-maturity or available-for-sale which could secure short-term borrowing requirements. In addition, the available-for-sale securities could be sold. Regular maturities and prepayments of investment securities, particularly the mortgage-backed securities, also generate significant liquidity. Scheduled principal reductions and prepayments on the mortgage-backed securities approximated $76.0 million during the fourth quarter of 1994. As disclosed in Note 20 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company had commitments to extend credit at December 31, 1994, including standby letters of credit of $101.4 million, commercial letters of credit of $24.2 million, unused credit card lines of $480.8 million, commitments to fund 1-4 family residential mortgage loans of $51.2 million, and other loan commitments of $1.3 billion. Some of these commitments will not be fully utilized, others will expire without being drawn upon, and the commitments will not all be used at the same time. Accordingly, management anticipates that the Company has ample liquidity to meet these and other demands. Capital Resources At December 31, 1994, total stockholders' equity was $602.1 million or 7.79% of total assets compared to $606.9 million or 8.81% of total assets at December 31, 1993. Exclusive of the net unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities, stockholders' equity was $624.5 million and $581.7 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. For 1994, total stockholders' equity averaged $596.2 million or 8.13% of average assets. The prior year average equity was $563.3 million or 8.43% of average assets. Banking system regulators apply two measures of capital adequacy to banking companies: the risk-based capital and leverage ratios. The risk-based capital rules provide for the weighting of assets and off-balance-sheet commitments and contingencies according to prescribed risk categories ranging from 0 to 100%. Regulatory capital is then divided by risk-weighted assets to determine the risk-adjusted capital ratios. The leverage ratio supplements the risk-based capital guidelines by placing a constraint on the degree to which a banking company can leverage its equity capital, regardless of the balance sheet composition. The leverage ratio is computed by dividing Tier I capital by quarter-to-date average assets less certain intangibles. The following table presents the Company's risk-based capital and leverage ratios together with the required minimums. The ratios exclude the net unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities as prescribed by the regulators.

(2) The allowance for credit losses is limited to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. (3) Quarter-to-date average assets excluding the net unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities and all intangibles except purchased mortgage servicing rights and purchased credit card relationships. Subsequent to December 31, 1994 the banking system regulators amended the regulatory capital rules to limit the amount of deferred tax assets that are allowable in computing the regulatory capital ratios. If the amendment to the regulatory capital rules limiting net deferred tax assets included in Tier I capital had been effective at December 31, 1994, the Company's risk-based and leverage ratios would have been as follows: December 31, 1994 ----------------- Risk-based capital ratios: Tier I . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10.90 Total. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 12.15 Leverage ratio . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7.06 As indicated in the preceding tables, the Company's risk-based and leverage capital ratios substantially exceed the minimums required by banking system regulators. Under regulations adopted by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, a bank is typically defined to be "well capitalized" if it maintains a Tier I capital ratio of at least 6.0%, a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10.0% and a leverage ratio of at least 5.0%. It is the Company's intention to maintain sufficient capital in each of its bank subsidiaries to permit them to maintain a "well capitalized" designation. The capital ratios for both of the Company's subsidiary banks exceeded the "well capitalized" regulatory capital requirements at December 31, 1994. For 1993, the Company's board of directors had authorized the purchase of up to 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock to be used for general corporate purposes. A separate board of directors action in December 1993 authorized the purchase of an additional 71,518 shares to be used to acquire the minority interests of the subsidiaries of First Dodge City Bancshares, Inc., a 1994 acquisition. A total of 111,518 shares were purchased in 1993, 40,000 shares for general corporate purposes and 71,518 shares specifically for the pending acquisition. The purchase of up to 500,000 common shares, or the equivalent in depositary shares representing interests in the Company's Class A Cumulative Preferred Stock, or a combination of the two was authorized for 1994. A board of directors action in April 1994 specifically reserved a portion of this previous authorization to be used for the acquisition of Oklahoma Savings, Inc. ("OSI"). At December 31, 1994, 355,466 shares of the Company's common stock had been purchased to be used in the OSI acquisition, which was consummated on January 6, 1995 and the shares were reissued. For 1995 the Company's board of directors has authorized the purchase of up to 500,000 common shares, or the equivalent in depositary shares, or a combination of the two. Pending Acquisitions A discussion of acquisitions pending at December 31, 1994 is included in Item 1, "Business," of PART I of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Shares of the Company's common stock will be used to consummate the OSI and Standard Bancorporation, Inc. acquisitions. Funding for the pending cash purchase acquisition will be provided by available funds. Parent Company Funding Sources and Dividends The ability of the parent company to fund various operating expenses and dividend requirements is dependent in part on its ability to obtain funds from its bank subsidiaries. Historically, these funds have been primarily provided by intercompany dividends. Intercompany dividends amounted to $144.2 million, $76.9 million, and $57.8 million for 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. The approval of the Comptroller of the Currency ("Comptroller") is required if total dividends declared by a national bank in any one year exceed the bank's net profits for that year plus the profits for the two preceding years retained by the bank. In 1995, the subsidiary banks may distribute to the parent company (in addition to their 1995 net profits) an aggregate of approximately $39.9 million in dividends without approval from regulatory agencies. Because of the financial strength of the parent company and the anticipated earnings capacity of both the BANK IV banks, it is anticipated that the banks will be able to obtain permission from the Comptroller to pay additional dividends in 1995 to the extent justified by their respective financial condition. At December 31, 1994, the parent company had approximately $31.1 million of cash and short-term investments. The parent company's borrowings at the same date totaled $24.4 million, composed of a $4.4- million term loan which bears interest at 8.6% and matures in March 1995 and $20.0 million borrowed under its line of credit. On January 3, 1995 this line of credit was replaced by two new credit agreements. These credit agreements provide the Company with a combined $100.0- million line of credit for a one-year period. The credit agreements subject the Company to certain restrictions and covenants related to, among others, consolidated stockholders' equity and the maintenance of specific ratios related to leverage, risk-based capital, and nonperforming assets. The parent company is currently in compliance with all restrictions and covenants under these agreements. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FAS No. 114, which addresses the accounting by creditors for impairment of certain loans. It is applicable to all creditors and to all loans, uncollateralized as well as collateralized, except large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment, loans that are measured at fair value or at the lower of cost or fair value, leases, and debt securities. It applies to all loans that are restructured in a troubled debt restructuring involving a modification of terms. The Statement requires that, when evaluating the need for an allowance for credit losses on impaired loans that are within the scope of this Statement, the loss accrual be measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent. FAS No. 114 was amended by FAS No. 118 in October of 1994 to allow a creditor to use existing methods for recognizing interest income on an impaired loan. It also amended the disclosure requirements of FAS No. 114 to require information about the recorded investment in certain impaired loans and about how a creditor recognizes interest income related to those impaired loans. FAS No. 114, as amended by FAS No. 118, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1994. The Company has not completed the analyses required to estimate the impact of FAS 114; however, the Company does not believe the adoption of the new rules will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition. Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices Virtually all assets and liabilities of a banking organization are monetary in nature. As such, they represent obligations to pay or receive fixed and determinable amounts of money which are not affected by future changes in prices. Changes in interest rates are the greatest determinant of bank earnings. However, interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or with the same magnitude as prices of other goods and services. A financial institution can manage the risk of changes in interest rates by matching the maturities of its liabilities against the maturities of its interest-earning assets. How well the institution copes with changing interest rates may then be determined by examining its net yield on earning assets and analyzing its asset and liability structure. Accordingly, reference to the various supplementary schedules shown elsewhere in this report will assist in the understanding of how the Company is positioned to react to changing interest rates.
