Notes to Financial Statements 1.Description of Plan: The following brief description of the Pikeville National Corporation Savings and Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan document for more complete information. General: The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all employees of Pikeville National Corporation (the Company), and all participating subsidiaries, which include Pikeville National Bank & Trust Company, First Security Bank & Trust Company, Commercial Bank (West Liberty), Commercial Bank (Middlesboro), The Woodford Bank and Trust Company, Farmers National Bank, The Exchange Bank of Kentucky, First American Bank, Farmers-Deposit Bank, Community Trust Bank, FSB, and Trust Company of Kentucky. The Plan was established, effective January 1, 1995, by the merger of the Pikeville National Corporation Restated Savings and Retirement Plan and the Pikeville National Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan. The Plan is subject to certain provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Eligibility: An employee becomes eligible to participate in the Plan on the entry date following the attainment of age twenty-one and completion of twelve months of employment (of at least 1,000 hours service). Contributions: A participant may elect to make voluntary contributions, through payroll deductions, to the Plan as deferred compensation contributions. The maximum amount of voluntary contributions shall be the lesser of $9,500 (as adjusted for inflation) for 1996 or 12% of the participant's compensation for the plan year. The Company makes matching contributions equal to 50% of the first 8% of each participant's deferred compensation contributions for the plan year, up to a total of 4% of such participant's compensation. Each participating company may, at the discretion of each Board of Directors, contribute an additional percentage of covered employees' gross wages. In addition, each year the Company will contribute to the Plan an amount no less than 3% of the compensation of each participant. These contributions are non-participant directed and are made directly to the Trust Fund (see Note 3). During 1996 and 1995, the contribution percentage was 4%. With the permission of the Retirement Committee of the Plan, a participant may contribute rollover contributions received by such participant or to which a participant is entitled from another trust qualified under Section 401(a) and 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Such rollover contributions are deposited in the participant's rollover account. Notes to Financial Statements, continued 1.Description of Plan, continued: Participants' Accounts: Each participant's account is credited with employer discretionary contributions, employee deferred compensation contributions and the related employer matching contribution. Earnings or losses on the investments are allocated in proportion to the participant's interest therein. Each participant is entitled to exercise voting rights attributable to the shares of Pikeville National Corporation common stock allocated to his or her account and is notified by the Retirement and Employee Benefits Committee prior to the time that such rights are to be exercised. The Retirement and Employee Benefits Committee is not permitted to vote any share for a participant. The trustee votes shares for which no instructions have been given by a participant. Vesting: Vesting of an employee's interest is 100% in cases of normal retirement at age sixty-five, death or total disability. If a participant's employment ceases for any other reason, the full value of his account is payable to him if he has completed five or more years of service. A participant who has completed less than five years of service is entitled to the full value of his account less the value of the employer contributions. Payment of Benefits: Generally, participants' account balances will be distributed to the participant or his beneficiary in a single lump- sum. Concentration of Credit Risk: Plan assets are invested in various financial instruments that contain some degree of credit risk. The Plan does not maintain collateral or other security to support these investments. At December 31, 1996, approximately 20% of Plan assets are invested in money market securities of companies with strong credit ratings, 4% of Plan assets are invested in mutual funds, 12% in equity common fund which is administered by the Company, 8% in US Government obligations and mortgage backed securities, and 56% are invested in common stock of Pikeville National Corporation. At December 31, 1995, approximately 27% of Plan assets are invested in money market securities of companies with strong credit ratings. Approximately 20% of Plan assets are invested in mutual funds, 4% in an equity common fund which is administered by Pikeville National and approximately 49% are invested in common stock of the Pikeville National Corporation. 2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Basis of Accounting: The accounting records of the Plan are maintained on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Purchases and sales of securities are recognized on the trade date basis. Valuation of Investments: Investments in securities traded on a national exchange are valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the period. Investments in mutual equity and bond funds and common trust funds are valued at the most recent selling price. which is based on the current market value of the securities in the fund. Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Other: The Plan presents in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of its investments which consists of realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on those investments. Notes to Financial Statements, continued 3.Investments: All amounts contributed to the Plan at December 31, 1996 are held by the trustee, Trust Company of Kentucky, and are invested in five separate investment funds as described below. At December 31, 1995, Plan assets were held by PNC Bank, Kentucky, Inc. Participant Directed Funds: Stock Fund: The Fund consists primarily of Pikeville National Corporation common stock. Federated ARM Fund: The Fund is primarily invested in adjustable rate mortgages, government securities and fixed income investments. Equity Fund: The Fund is primarily invested in three Mutual Funds and the Pikeville National Equity Common Fund with the primary investment objective to achieve increasing income and long-term appreciation of capital through the purchases of common stock and other equity investments. Money Market Fund: The Fund is primarily invested in short-term interest bearing money market accounts. The average maturity of the portfolio will usually be less than one year. Each participant must allocate the contributions made on their behalf and the balances in their account among the foregoing funds in increments of 10%. In the absence of an allocation, all of a participant's contributions will be invested in the Money Market Fund. Non-Participant Directed Fund: Trust Fund: The Fund consists primarily of Pikeville National Corporation common stock.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Pikeville National Corporation Savings and Employee Stock Ownership Plan at December 31, 1996 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1996 and reportable transactions for the year ended December 31, 1996 are presented for purposes of complying with the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The Fund Information in the statement of net assets available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available for benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits of each fund. The supplemental schedules and Fund Information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the 1996 basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the 1996 basic financial statements taken as a whole. s/ Ernst & Young LLP Columbus, Ohio June 27, 1997 Report of Independent Accountants Retirement and Employee Benefits Committee Pikeville National Corporation Pikeville, Kentucky We have audited the statement of net assets available for benefits of the Pikeville National Corporation Savings and Employee Stock Ownership Plan as of December 31, 1995 and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended.
