Prior year information has been restated to reflect a two-for-one stock split effected by means of a stock dividend paid in August 1993. PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW Net income was $83.2 million in 1993, a 31% increase over the Corporation's previous record earnings of $63.4 million in 1992. Net income in 1992 was 54% higher than the $41.2 million earned in 1991. Loan growth, a higher net interest margin and lower credit related costs contributed to the earnings improvement in 1993 and 1992. Fully diluted earnings per share increased 20% to $2.38 in 1993 following an increase of 38% in 1992. The Corporation's five- year compound growth rate for net income was 25% and fully diluted earnings per share increased at a compound annual growth rate of 19% over the same period. The Corporation's return on average assets was 1.14% in 1993, an improvement from returns of 1.08% and .80% in 1992 and 1991, respectively. Return on average shareholders' equity was 15.61% in 1993, up from 14.93% in 1992 and 11.82% in 1991. Expansion in the state of Washington contributed to the Corporation's performance in 1993. In September 1992, the Corporation acquired 38 branches with deposits of $1.2 billion and loans of $837 million from Security Pacific Corporation (the Washington Acquisition). The Corporation further improved its competitive position in Washington by acquiring Yakima Valley Bank, a four- branch institution with assets of $119 million, in October 1992,and Ben Franklin National Bank, a three-branch institution with assets of $37 million, in May 1993. REGIONAL ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE A financial institution's performance is directly influenced by economic conditions in its service area. In 1993, the Corporation's service area of Idaho, Washington, Oregon and Utah was one of the strongest economic regions of the country. Utah and Idaho led the nation in employment growth during much of the year, with Utah's gains exceeding 5%. Idaho's employment gains were especially significant in the high technology sector, accompanied by strong growth in tourism and business services. Oregon's economy began to recover from the effects of drastic cuts in timber production on federal lands, and by late 1993 reported annual gains in employment of over 2%. Strength in Washington was largely offset by the effects of aerospace cutbacks; however, metropolitan areas served by the Corporation outside of the Puget Sound region, including Yakima, Spokane, Vancouver and the Tri-Cities, experienced vibrant and expanding economies during the year with rising employment and construction activity. Lower interest rates and substantial net inmigration expanded residential construction in Idaho, Oregon and Utah. The number of new dwelling units authorized was up 13% throughout the region in 1993 as Utah, Oregon and Idaho posted gains of 41%, 17% and 14%, respectively, and no change was reported in Washington. Prospects for continued economic growth in the Corporation's service area appear favorable in 1994, especially in light of an improving national economy. Construction activity is expected to remain strong in Idaho, Oregon and Utah. Washington's economy will not fully participate in the region's growth until production levels in the aerospace industry stabilize.

Capital management ensures capital is available for current needs, anticipated growth and advantageous business opportunities. The Corporation regularly monitors current and projected consolidated and subsidiary capital positions to ensure capital levels exceed regulatory guidelines. At December 31, 1993, shareholders' equity totaled $624 million, up 27% from a year ago. The primary source of additional shareholders' equity in 1993 was $68 million of retained earnings, up 58% from 1992. In addition, the Corporation issued $47 million of common stock through a dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plan providing shareholders the opportunity to purchase common stock and reinvest dividends at a discount from the market price. At December 31, 1993, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." In accordance with the pronouncement, securities available for sale were reported at market value and the resulting net unrealized after- tax gain of $9 million was included in shareholders' equity, without impacting net income or risk-based capital ratios in 1993. Shareholders' equity as a percent of assets measures capital strength. At December 31, 1993, the Corporation's ratio increased to 8.13%, up from 6.87% at December 31, 1992 and 6.78% at December 31, 1991. In 1993, the Corporation paid dividends for the 58th consecutive year. The Corporation's dividend policy is designed to strike a balance between providing immediate returns to shareholders through cash dividends and increasing long- term shareholders' value through profitable utilization of earnings as capital. In recognition of record net income and a strong capital position, the Corporation's Board of Directors increased the quarterly dividend by 16% to $.18 per share in October 1993, representing the fifth consecutive year of dividend increases. On a per share basis, dividends paid in 1993 were $.595, a 17% increase from $.51 in 1992. The comparable dividend was $.47 in 1991. The market price per share of the Corporation's common stock was $28.50 at December 31, 1993, or 159% of the $17.96 book value per share. At year-end 1992, the market price was $25.375 or 168% of the $15.14 book value per share. The Corporation's market capitalization was $989.5 million at December 31, 1993, up 21% from $820.9 million a year ago. The average annual compounded return to the Corporation's shareholders for the five-year period ending December 31, 1993 assuming reinvestment of dividends was 27%, significantly outperforming our peer group of 539 commercial banks whose return was 13% and the NASDAQ market index return of 7%. The Corporation's stock was held by 7,328 shareholders of record at December 31, 1993, and is traded in the over-the-counter market on the National Market System of NASDAQ under the symbol WEST. The accompanying market quotations represent the high and low closing sales price per share for the indicated periods, as reported by NASDAQ (NMS). The Corporation is subject to risk-based capital guidelines established by the Federal Reserve Board requiring minimum capital levels based on the perceived risk of assets and off-balance sheet instruments. The Corporation's strong capital position, adequate allowance for credit losses, low intangible asset level and limited off-balance sheet exposure resulted in capital ratios exceeding regulatory minimums as presented in the chart at left. Bank regulators also adopted five capital category definitions applicable to banks for certain regulatory supervision purposes, ranging from well-capitalized to critically undercapitalized. At December 31, 1993, the Corporation and its banking subsidiaries exceeded the regulatory criteria for well-capitalized institutions and qualified for the minimum FDIC insurance assessment. Double leverage is created when debt is incurred to acquire subsidiaries or to increase a subsidiary's capital and when intangible assets arise from acquisitions. The double leverage ratio is calculated for the Parent Company as the sum of investment in subsidiaries plus goodwill and core deposit intangibles divided by total shareholders' equity. Regulators have not specified a maximum level of double leverage. At December 31, 1993, the Corporation's double leverage ratio improved to .98 compared to 1.11 and 1.04, respectively, at December 31, 1992 and 1991.

Net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percent of average earning assets and represents the difference between the yield on earning assets and the composite interest rate paid on all sources of funds. Net interest income is adjusted to a taxable equivalent basis to present income earned on taxable and tax-exempt assets on a comparable basis. References to net interest income and net interest margin in this discussion represent taxable equivalent amounts. Net interest income was $322.4 million in 1993, an increase of 28% from the prior year. Comparable increases were 20% in 1992 and 12% in 1991. Net interest income accounted for 76% of total revenue in 1993, 75% in 1992 and 74% in 1991. Net interest income is influenced primarily by changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and funding sources, market rates of interest and income tax rates. Average earning assets increased $1.32 billion or 25% to $6.61 billion in 1993 following increases of 13% and 10%, respectively, in 1992 and 1991. Approximately 40% of the increase in 1993 was attributable to loans acquired in the Washington Acquisition. Loans represent the highest yielding component of earning assets and accounted for 74% of average earning assets in 1993, up from 71% in 1992 and 72% in 1991. A significant shift in the mix of sources of funds improved net interest income and net interest margin in 1993 and 1992. Depositors, inclined to maintain liquid investments during periods of low interest rates, shifted funds from certificates of deposit to noninterest bearing demand deposits and lower cost interest bearing demand and savings deposits. Average noninterest bearing funds increased to 16% of total sources of funds in 1993 from 14% in 1992 and 12% in 1991, resulting in lower interest expense, higher net interest income and a wider net interest margin. The shift in deposit mix may result in a higher risk of future disintermediation of funding sources as customers seek higher yielding investment alternatives. Net interest margin increased 11 basis points to 4.87% in 1993 from 4.76% in 1992. Net interest margin was 4.48% in 1991. The yield on earning assets and the cost of funds both declined in 1993, reflecting lower money market interest rates. Improvements in the mix of both earning assets and sources of funds, combined with aggressive efforts to reduce funding costs and to price loans profitably, resulted in a 75 basis point decrease in the cost of funds compared to a 64 basis point decline in the earning asset yield. Interest income foregone net of tax on nonperforming loans declined to $1.1 million in 1993 from $1.7 million in 1992 and $2.2 million in 1991. Nonaccrual loans declined to .44% of total loans at December 31, 1993 from .46% at year-end 1992 and 1.20% at year-end 1991. Net interest income and net interest margin also improved in 1992 due to a favorable interest rate environment, steeper yield curve, a higher volume of earning assets and improved asset quality. The accompanying table presents the detailed rate and volume analysis of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities for the last three years.

Nonaccrual loans are included in average balances; however, interest income has not been accrued on such loans. Net changes which are attributable to volume and rate are allocated proportionately. -19- COMPOSITION OF AVERAGE EARNING ASSETS 1993 1992 1991 1990 1989 Loans Real estate 28.8% 25.8% 24.2% 24.4% 22.9% Commercial and agricultural 28.8 27.7 27.9 28.1 26.1 Consumer 14.3 15.1 16.7 18.0 16.5 Leases 2.3 2.5 2.7 2.4 2.0 Total loans 74.2 71.1 71.5 72.9 67.5 Securities United States Treasury and Government agencies 8.8 10.2 11.4 11.8 14.5 State and municipal bonds 6.9 4.7 4.4 4.4 3.8 Mortgage-backed securities 5.7 6.1 4.9 4.1 1.8 Other 3.8 4.0 3.0 2.9 2.9 Total securities 25.2 25.0 23.7 23.2 23.0 Short-term investments .6 3.9 4.8 3.9 9.5 Total 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% LOANS Favorable economic conditions in the Corporation's market area created strong loan demand in 1993. Recent acquisitions in Washington also presented new market opportunities. Loans are the Corporation's primary earning asset and totaled $5.35 billion at December 31, 1993, an increase of 18% from year-end 1992. Loans increased 30% in 1992 and 6% in 1991. Residential real estate loans totaling $421 million were originated and sold in the secondary market during 1993. The average loan to deposit ratio was 86.18% in 1993 compared to 83.65% in 1992 and 85.50% in 1991. Real estate loans were $2.15 billion at December 31, 1993 and represented 40% of total loans. Residential real estate loans increased 23% to $1.10 billion at December 31, 1993 following increases of 46% and 10%, respectively, in 1992 and 1991. Low mortgage interest rates, a high rate of inmigration to the region and the consolidation of consumer debt into home equity credit lines in response to tax legislation all contributed to the increase in 1993. Commercial real estate loans increased 18% to $808 million at December 31, 1993 compared to increases of 47% in 1992 and 9% in 1991. A major share of the increase in 1993 represented loans to local business customers for expansion of operations and facilities in response to consumer demand for products and -20- services. Less than 1% of commercial real estate loans represented projects outside the Corporation's local market area. Construction loans increased 54% to $245 million at December 31, 1993 and represented 11% of total real estate loans compared to 9% a year ago. Construction loans increased 32% in 1992 and 12% in 1991. Dwelling units authorized in the Corporation's market area increased 13% in 1993 due to an acceleration in single and multi-family residential construction. Commercial and agricultural loans totaled $2 billion at December 31, 1993, a 12% increase from the prior year, compared to increases of 30% in 1992 and 7% in 1991. The commercial loan increase in 1993 was consistent with improved regional economic conditions as measured by increases in employment, population, personal income and retail sales. Management continues to encourage growth in the small-to-middle market by emphasizing efficient and personal service provided by the Corporation's community-based lending officers. Agricultural loans increased 9% to $392 million at December 31, 1993 as the Corporation maintained its position as one of the leading agricultural lenders in the nation. Consumer loans increased 19% to $1.04 billion at December 31, 1993 following an increase of 10% in 1992 and no change in 1991. Bankcard loan growth reflected increases in merchants served, credit cards outstanding and transactions. Student, recreational vehicle and boat loans also contributed to the increase. SECURITIES The Corporation's securities portfolio is comprised of investment quality, marketable debt securities. Management's goal is to maximize long-term returns while maintaining an acceptable level of risk. The Corporation's securities portfolio declined 2% to $1.63 billion at December 31, 1993 to accommodate strong loan growth. Securities increased 36% in 1992 due to the Washington Acquisition and 18% in 1991. State and municipal bonds increased 56% to $565 million at December 31, 1993 compared to the prior year due to increased taxable equivalent yields resulting from higher federal tax rates. Debt securities the Corporation has the ability and intent to hold to maturity are reported at cost adjusted for the amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. The aggregate market value of securities held to maturity at December 31, 1993 exceeded aggregate cost by $30 million. Securities available for sale may be sold as a part of the Corporation's asset and liability management process and are reported at market value. Unrealized gains or losses related to the adjustment of securities to market value are recorded net LOAN GROWTH Increase Increase Increase (Decrease) (Decrease) from from from Dollars in thousands at December 31, 1993 1992 1992 1991 1991 1990 Real estate $2,150,835 24.0% $1,734,076 47.1% $1,179,101 8.8% Commercial and agricultural 1,996,865 11.7 1,787,451 29.5 1,379,891 6.7 Consumer 1,038,678 18.7 875,203 9.8 797,076 (.1) Leases 168,119 24.4 135,183 (4.4) 141,383 19.6 Total $5,354,497 18.2% $4,531,913 29.6% $3,497,451 6.2% -21- COMPOSITION OF SOURCES OF FUNDS BASED ON AVERAGE BALANCES 1993 1992 1991 1990 1989 Interest bearing demand deposits 10.5 % 9.8 % 8.7 % 9.1 % 9.1 % Savings deposits 28.1 25.6 21.3 20.9 22.8 Certificates of deposit 30.8 34.3 40.0 41.6 39.3 Noninterest bearing funds 15.5 14.2 12.3 12.3 11.9 Short-term borrowings 13.3 13.9 15.9 14.5 15.2 Long-term debt 1.8 2.2 1.8 1.6 1.7 Total 100.0 % 100.0 % 100.0 % 100.0 % 100.0 % of tax as a component of shareholders' equity. At December 31, 1993, the market value of securities available for sale exceeded cost by $15 million. SOURCES OF FUNDS Earning assets are funded primarily by deposits acquired from a broad base of local markets. Deposits increased $301 million or 5% to $5.94 billion at December 31, 1993 following increases of 39% in 1992, due primarily to the Washington Acquisition, and 5% in 1991. Growth in core deposits of $265 million or 5% to $5.47 billion accounted for most of the deposit increase in 1993. Core deposits represented stable funds from local customers and funded 78% of earning assets at year-end 1993. Average short-term borrowings as a percent of average earning assets declined to 13% in 1993 from 14% in 1992 and 16% in 1991. Other short-term borrowings include United States Treasury borrowings, Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings and commercial paper. The 1993 increase in other short-term borrowings was primarily attributable to United States Treasury borrowings, the least expensive source of borrowed funds available. ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT The Corporation's assets and liabilities are managed to maximize long-term shareholder returns by optimizing net interest income within the constraints of maintaining high credit quality, conservative interest rate risk disciplines and prudent levels of leverage and liquidity. The Asset and Liability Committee meets regularly to monitor the composition of the balance sheet, to assess current and projected interest rate trends and to formulate strategies consistent with established objectives for liquidity, interest rate risk and capital adequacy. LIQUIDITY The objective of liquidity management is to ensure the availability of sufficient cash flows to meet all financial commitments and to capitalize on opportunities for profitable business expansion. Cash flow from operations contributes significantly to liquidity. Borrowings represent an important and manageable source of liquidity based on the Corporation's ability to raise new funds and renew maturing liabilities in a variety of markets. Liquidity is also obtained by maintaining assets that are readily convertible to cash at minimal cost through maturities and sales. Contingency plans exist and could be implemented on a timely basis to minimize the risk associated with dramatic changes in market conditions. Deposit generation through the Corporation's extensive retail branch network is an important source of liquidity. Deposits increased at a five-year annual compound growth rate of 11%. Core deposits, comprised of certificates of deposit under $100 thousand and local market transaction and savings accounts, are a highly reliable source of funds. Core deposits represented 92% of total deposits at year-ends 1993 and 1992, and 91% at year-end 1991. The Corporation is able to attract but has not used brokered deposits from outside its market area. Securities available for sale totaled $1.06 billion at December 31, 1993, representing a highly accessible source of liquidity. Held to maturity securities will provide liquidity through maturities of $40 million in 1994. Liquidity is also available through a variety of domestic money and capital markets. Short-term borrowings provide a consistent source of funding and are comprised primarily of securities sold under agreements to repurchase, United States Treasury borrowings and federal funds purchased. Additional amounts of short-term funds are raised through commercial paper and bank notes. Back-up -22- sources of liquidity are provided by credit lines available to West One Bancorp. Washington, Oregon and Utah subsidiaries have access to liquidity and matched funding from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle. Additional liquidity could be generated through borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. The Corporation's investment grade ratings by Moody's and Standard & Poor's provide flexibility in meeting liquidity requirements through access to national markets. Thompson BankWatch's issuer rating for West One Bancorp is "B" and the short-term ratings of the Corporation and West One Bank, Idaho are "TBW-1," the highest rating available. Asset liquidity also arises from scheduled loan repayments. At December 31, 1993, scheduled principal payments due within one year were $1.96 billion or 37% of loans. The Corporation sells a majority of its residential mortgage loan production, contributing to overall liquidity. In addition, portions of the Corporation's residential mortgage, consumer and credit card loan portfolios could be securitized and sold to increase liquidity. The Corporation maintains a position of short-term investments consisting of interest bearing deposits, federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell that averaged $42 million in 1993. The position provides flexibility in balancing the fluctuating borrowing requirements of customers with the Corporation's daily funding capacity. In 1994, $14 million of long-term debt matures. The debt obligations will be met through additional external financing and internally generated cash. Aggregate long-term debt maturities over the next five years total $66 million. INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY The Corporation's net interest income is affected by changes in the level of market interest rates. Management's objectives are to control interest rate risk and to ensure predictable and consistent growth in net interest income. Interest rate risk management focuses on fluctuations in net interest income identified through computer simulations to evaluate volatility under varying interest rate, spread and volume assumptions. The risk is quantified and compared against risk tolerance levels designed to maintain stability in net interest income. Sensitivity analysis indicated that the Corporation was moderately liability sensitive and within established tolerance limits during 1993. The Asset and Liability Maturity Repricing Schedule on page 24 depicts variable rate instruments in the time period the balances are eligible for repricing and fixed rate instruments according to repayment schedules. The analysis provides a general measure of interest rate risk but does not address complexities such as prepayment risk, interperiod sensitivities, interest rate floors and ceilings imposed on financial instruments, interest rate dynamics and customers' response to interest rate changes. PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES The provision for credit losses is the expense incurred to maintain an adequate allowance for anticipated credit losses. Actual credit losses, net of recoveries of previously charged-off loans, are charged directly against the allowance. The allowance for credit losses reflects management's current estimate of the amount required to absorb losses on existing loans and commitments to extend credit. Determination of the appropriate level of the allowance is based on an analysis of various factors including historical loss experience based on volumes and types of loans; volumes and trends in delinquencies and nonaccruals; trends in portfolio volume, maturity and composition; results of internal or independent external credit reviews; industrial and geographical concentrations; and anticipated economic conditions. Each affiliate regularly evaluates its allowance for credit losses. The adequacy of the allowance is subject to quarterly review by an executive committee and the audit committee of the Board of Directors. Based on this analysis, management considers the allowance for credit losses to be adequate. The Corporation's asset quality ratios ranked among the best in the industry in 1993. Net charge-offs were $7.1 million or .14% of average loans in 1993 compared to $9.8 million or .26% of average loans in 1992. In 1991, net charge-offs totaled $24.5 million or .73% of average loans. During the last two years, gross charge-offs totaled $35.6 million while recoveries amounted to $18.7 million for a recovery ratio of 53%. Nonperforming assets declined 9% to $28 million at December 31, 1993 from $31 million at December 31, 1992. At December 31, 1991 nonperforming assets were $54 million. As a percent of total assets, nonperforming assets were .37% at December 31, 1993 compared to .44% a year ago and 1.00% at December 31, 1991. Other credit risk assets include loans with serious concern, defined as loans classified as doubtful but accruing interest, and accruing loans past due 90 days or more. At December 31, 1993, other credit risk assets totaled $5 million, a 25% decrease from $7 million at December 31, 1992. Other credit risk assets totaled $8 million at December 31, 1991.

At December 31, 1991, the allowance for credit losses was $53 million. The allowance for credit losses represented 1.40% of total loans at December 31, 1993 compared to 1.51% and 1.52%, respectively, at year-ends 1992 and 1991. The allowance for credit losses covered 311% of nonperforming loans at December 31, 1993. CREDIT RISK The Corporation's credit policies are designed to minimize losses. The policies require extensive evaluation of new requests for credit and continuing review of existing credits to ensure early identification and monitoring of any evidence of deteriorating loan quality, and quantification of possible loss. A loan is placed on nonaccrual status when all or a portion of the interest is deemed uncollectible. The Corporation's objective is to maintain a loan portfolio that is diverse in terms of the type of loans and borrowers, industry concentration, economic conditions and geographic distribution in an effort to minimize the adverse impact of a single event. The Corporation's recent geographic expansion in Washington and Oregon resulted in a more diversified loan portfolio. In 1993, 50% of the Corporation's loans were in Idaho compared to 81% in 1985. Strong economic conditions in the Corporation's market area are evidenced by healthy commercial and residential real estate and construction industries. All four states experienced significant population growth in 1993 indicating continued strong demand for -24- new housing units. Commercial vacancy rates in the major metropolitan areas of Boise, Seattle, Portland and Salt Lake City are running well below the national average. Commercial loans, the second largest loan category, included no significant industry concentrations. Agricultural and related loans represented the largest single industry concentration in the loan portfolio, accounting for 10% of total loans at December 31, 1993. The average balance per commercial and agricultural loan was $86 thousand at December 31, 1993. Foreign loans totaled only $3 million at December 31, 1993. At year-end 1993, agreements to extend credit totaled $2.26 billion compared to $1.56 billion and $1.25 billion at year-ends 1992 and 1991, respectively.

NONINTEREST INCOME Noninterest income increased 23% to $102.5 million in 1993 following increases of 15% in 1992 and 17% in 1991. Other service charges, fees and commissions included bank card income that increased $6.8 million or 55% in 1993 due to increased credit cards outstanding, transaction volumes and merchants served. Other income included gains on the sale of real estate loans and servicing which increased $1.1 million or 22% in 1993 as a result of significant residential mortgage refinancing activity due to low interest rates. Noninterest income in 1993 also reflected the first full-year impact of the Washington Acquisition. An increasing percentage of the Corporation's earnings is noninterest income generated from a wide variety of fee-based financial products and services. Over the past five years, the compound growth rate for noninterest income, excluding securities gains and losses, was 19% and exceeded the five-year compound growth rate of 12% for assets. NONINTEREST EXPENSE Noninterest expense increased 26% to $272.4 million in 1993 compared with increases of 18% and 12%, respectively, in 1992 and 1991. The current year increase reflected the first full-year impact of the Washington Acquisition. Employee benefits expense in 1993 included $1.7 million of post-retirement benefits in accordance with SFAS No. 106. The interest rate environment in 1993 that was particularly favorable to mortgage origination volume also caused significant prepayments in the mortgage servicing portfolio. Increased prepayments reduced loans serviced and necessitated an acceleration of the amortization of purchased mortgage servicing rights. The amortization increased to $4.1 million in 1993 from $1.4 million in 1992. In 1993, the Corporation established a telephone response system providing immediate customer service seven days a week, twenty-four hours a day. The Customer Service Center is a convenient alternative for customers and reduces retail branch expenses. INCOME TAXES The effective income tax rate for the year-ended December 31, 1993 was 31.0% compared to 30.6% in 1992 and 28.3% in 1991. The current year change reflected the increase in the corporate federal tax rate to 35% in 1993 from 34% in 1992. Note 13 to the financial statements reconciles the effective income tax rates to the federal statutory rates. The implementation of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," had no material effect on the income statement or balance sheet. INFLATION In the opinion of management, inflation and changes in prices have not had a material effect on the Corporation's financial results in 1993, 1992 and 1991. -26- QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA (unaudited) Dollars in thousands, except per share data Fourth Third Second First 1993 Interest income $127,442 $126,640 $123,823 $119,420 Interest expense 46,713 48,169 49,018 49,535 Net interest income 80,729 78,471 74,805 69,885 Provision for credit losses 2,983 3,894 3,414 3,092 Net interest income after provision for credit losses 77,746 74,577 71,391 66,793 Noninterest income 27,484 26,508 25,362 23,155 Noninterest expense 73,401 68,873 66,063 64,101 Income before taxes 31,829 32,212 30,690 25,847 Provision for income taxes 9,396 10,437 9,876 7,682 Net income $22,433 $21,775 $20,814 $18,165 Primary earnings per share* $.66 $.65 $.63 $.55 Fully diluted earnings per share* .63 .62 .60 .53 Net interest margin** 4.96% 4.92% 4.82% 4.79% 1992 Interest income $121,175 $108,402 $100,830 $103,381 Interest expense 52,116 47,050 45,699 50,225 Net interest income 69,059 61,352 55,131 53,156 Provision for credit losses 2,552 2,672 4,238 4,846 Net interest income after provision for credit losses 66,507 58,680 50,893 48,310 Noninterest income 23,306 20,448 20,189 19,518 Noninterest expense 64,931 55,398 49,014 47,181 Income before taxes 24,882 23,730 22,068 20,647 Provision for income taxes 7,490 7,227 6,804 6,434 Net income $17,392 $16,503 $15,264 $14,213 Primary earnings per share* $.54 $.52 $.53 $.50 Fully diluted earnings per share* .51 .50 .50 .47 Net interest margin 4.66% 4.86% 4.88% 4.66% * First and second 1993 quarter and 1992 quarter amounts have been restated for the two-for-one stock split paid August 13, 1993. ** Reflects first and second quarter adjustments to provide for the retroactive federal income tax rate increase. -27- CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS Dollars in thousands at December 31, 1993 1992 Assets Cash and due from banks (Note 14) $450,384 $525,162 Due from banks -

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Dollars in thousands The accounting and reporting policies of West One Bancorp and its subsidiaries (West One) conform with generally accepted accounting principles and general practice in the banking industry. West One paid a two-for-one stock split on August 13, 1993 for which prior period amounts have been restated. The significant policies are summarized below. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of West One with elimination of material intercompany transactions and balances. The Parent Company only financial statements (Note 15) reflect investment in subsidiaries using the equity basis of accounting. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to conform to the 1993 presentation. Assets owned by others and held in a fiduciary or agency capacity by subsidiaries are not included in the consolidated balance sheets. Acquisitions In May 1993, West One acquired Ben Franklin National Bank in exchange for 206,254 shares of West One's common stock. At the date of acquisition, Ben Franklin National Bank had year-to-date revenue of $2,171, year-to-date net loss of $6 and total assets of $36,531. The transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests. Ben Franklin National Bank's financial position and results of operations were not material to West One's financial position and results of operations, and prior year financial statements have not been restated. In October 1992, West One acquired Yakima Valley Bank in exchange for 913,694 shares of West One's common stock. At the date of acquisition, Yakima Valley Bank had year-to-date revenue of $8,527, year-to-date net income of $895 and total assets of $119,493. The transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests. Because Yakima Valley Bank's financial position and results of operations were not material to West One's financial position and results of operations, and prior year financial statements have not been restated. In September 1992, West One purchased 38 branches and seven specialty offices in the Puget Sound region of Washington from Security Pacific Corporation. The transaction included the receipt of $315 million of cash, $837 million of loans, $21 million of premises and equipment, $21 million of intangible and other assets, and the assumption of approximately $1.2 billion of deposits. In July 1992, West One purchased three branches of Bank of America Oregon. The transaction included the receipt of $45 million of cash, $1 million of loans, $1 million of premises and equipment, $1 million of intangible and other assets, and the assumption of $48 million of deposits and other liabilities. Both of these transactions were accounted for as purchases of certain assets and assumptions of certain liabilities. In December 1991, West One acquired Washington Federal Savings Bank (WFSB) in exchange for 2,049,030 shares of West One common stock in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests. WFSB had total assets of $358,000 at the date of acquisition and revenue of $36,733 and net income of $3,365 in 1991 prior to the acquisition. WFSB paid dividends of $687 in 1991. Securities On December 31, 1993, West One adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." Under this pronouncement securities held to maturity are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Securities available for sale and trading account securities are stated at market value. Gains and losses on sale of securities, recognized on a specific identification basis, and valuation adjustments of trading account securities are included in noninterest income. Net unrealized gain or loss on securities available for sale are included, net of tax, as a component of shareholders' equity. Loans Loans and leases are stated at the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned income. Interest on loans is recognized as income based on the outstanding principal and the stated interest rates as adjusted for net deferred loan fees, premiums and discounts. Loan origination fees and costs -34- are deferred and recognized as income on the interest method over the life of the loans. Lease income, primarily from financing leases, is recognized on the level interest method. Recognition of interest income is discontinued and all accrued, unpaid interest is reversed when a loan is placed on nonaccrual status. A loan or lease is placed on nonaccrual status when timely collection of interest becomes doubtful. Interest payments received on nonaccrual loans and leases are applied to principal if collection of principal is doubtful or reflected as interest income on a cash basis. Loans and leases are removed from nonaccrual status when they are current and collectibility of principal and interest is no longer doubtful. Loans held for sale are stated at the lower of cost or market. Allowance for Credit Losses The allowance for credit losses is maintained at a level considered adequate by management to provide for losses inherent in the portfolio of loans, leases and commitments to extend credit . Loans sold with servicing released have technical underwriting exception and repurchase risks which are also considered in the determination of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. The estimate of additions to the allowance for credit losses, and resulting charge to expense, requires judgment in evaluating the borrower's management, financial position, cash flow, collateral values and guarantees, as well as projection of the outcome of future events. The continuing adequacy of the allowance for credit losses is determined based upon the results of a credit classification system, internal and external credit examinations, historic experience, economic conditions, industry concentrations, elements of risk and other loss factors affecting the quality of the loan portfolio. Premises and Equipment Premises, equipment, major improvements and replacements are stated at cost. Depreciation is recognized on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the remaining term of the lease. Gains or losses from disposal of premises and equipment are reflected in noninterest expense. Maintenance and repairs are expensed and improvements are capitalized. Costs of purchased and internally-developed software are amortized over periods up to five years. Other Real Estate Owned Other real estate owned consists principally of properties acquired through foreclosure and is stated at the lower of cost or market value. Other Assets Other assets include goodwill and core deposit intangibles and are stated at cost, net of amortization provided on straight-line and level interest methods over useful lives ranging up to 25 years. Purchased mortgage servicing rights are stated at cost net of amortization based on the income method and related prepayment assumptions. Income Taxes Income taxes are provided on earnings as reported for financial statement purposes adjusted principally for nontaxable interest income. Deferred income taxes reflect the tax effect of temporary differences between financial statement income and taxable income. In 1993, West One adopted SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which prescribes the use of the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, the change between periods in the deferred tax assets and liabilities together with income taxes currently payable are reflected as income tax expense in the financial statements. Earnings per Share Primary and fully diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options, if dilutive. Fully diluted earnings per share assumes conversion of the convertible debentures, if dilutive. Statements of Cash Flows Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and due from banks. New Pronouncements The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits," effective for years beginning after December 15, 1993, and SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," effective for years beginning after December 15, 1994. Neither statement is expected to have a material effect on West One. -35- NOTE 2.

Lease expense was $10,434 in 1993, $7,506 in 1992, and $5,497 in 1991, and is included in net occupancy and equipment expense. Occupancy expense was reduced by rental income of $2,169 in 1993, $2,283 in 1992 and $2,332 in 1991. At December 31, 1993 future minimum lease payments under long-term noncancelable operating leases were $10,018 in 1994, $8,984 in 1995, $7,416 in 1996, $6,087 in 1997, $4,543 in 1998 and $34,403 thereafter. Management expects to renew or replace expiring leases in the normal course of business. NOTE 5.

The average rate is computed by dividing total interest expense by the average outstanding balance. Other short-term borrowings consist of United States Treasury borrowings, bank notes and commercial paper. Unused lines of credit aggregating $45,000 at December 31, 1993 were maintained with banks in support of commercial paper. The lines bear interest at short-term money market rates if drawn upon, and required commitment fees of $84, $76, and $76 in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. -40- NOTE 7. LONG-TERM DEBT Long-term debt at December 31 consisted of the following: Dollars in thousands 1993 1992 Parent company Convertible subordinated debentures at 7.75% due 2006, interest payable semi-annually $50,000 $50,000 Notes at 11% due 1993, interest payable semi-annually - 23,993 Convertible subordinated capital notes at 1/4% above the three-month LIBOR due 1997, interest payable quarterly 20,983 20,978 Capital leases of computer equipment at 10%, payable in monthly installments through 1997 6,821 9,598 Other - 789 Subsidiaries Federal Home Loan Bank Notes with interest payable monthly at floating and fixed rates ranging primarily from 3.11% to 5.18% and with principal due 1994 through 2000 38,029 11,069 Other 627 1,222 Total $116,460 $117,649 Scheduled reductions of debt are $14,318 in 1994, $9,240 in 1995, $20,590 in 1996, $22,073 in 1997, $25 in 1998 and $50,214 thereafter. The convertible subordinated debentures are convertible into shares of common stock of West One at a conversion price of $18.605 per share. The convertible subordinated capital notes may be called and exchanged for common stock, preferred stock or other capital securities at the option of West One. The interest rate on these notes was 5.25% at December 31, 1993 and 1992. The debt agreements limit indebtedness and sale of subsidiaries' stock. -41- NOTE 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES West One is a party to certain financial instruments with off-balance sheet risks to meet the financing needs of customers and to reduce exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The following is a summary of the contract or notional amount of these financial instruments as of December 31: Dollars in thousands 1993 1992 Financial instruments with credit risk up to contract amounts (a) Commitments to extend credit $2,260,507 $1,562,344 Standby letters of credit 188,029 178,350 Commercial letters of credit 25,527 35,589 Financial instruments with risk less than contract or notional amounts Mortgage-backed security contracts (b): Forward sales 32,500 21,000 Purchased options 9,000 8,000 Notional value of interest rate swaps (b) - 20,000 Foreign exchange contracts (c): Commitments to purchase 5,422 11,512 Commitments to sell 1,500 3,888 (a) Commitments to extend credit have fixed maturity dates and represent West One's obligations to fund commercial and real estate loans, including home equity lines, lines of credit, revolving lines of credit and other types of commitments. Letters of credit are performance assurances of customer obligations or guarantees of financing for trade transactions. West One's exposure to credit loss for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit, in the event of nonperformance by others, is represented by the contractual amount of the instruments. Since many commitments to extend credit are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. West One follows the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Collateral varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, premises and equipment, and commercial properties. West One's lending activities are concentrated in Idaho, Washington, Oregon and Utah. (b) Forward sale and purchased option contracts and interest rate swaps are typically hedges against interest rate risk on specific assets or liabilities. West One's forward sales and purchased options are contracts to buy or sell mortgage-backed securities to hedge interest rate risk on fixed rate mortgage loan or rate commitments. Net positions are valued at the lower of cost or market. Gains or losses are recognized upon settlement of the forward sale contracts based on the difference between the net sales proceeds and the net carrying value of the loans sold. Purchased options are contracts to buy or sell mortgage-backed securities at fixed prices during a specified period. The option premium paid, which represents loss exposure, is amortized over the life of the option. Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange of fixed and floating rate interest payments without the exchange of the underlying notional amount on which the interest payments are calculated. The differential between the fixed and variable rate is recorded as interest income or expense of the liability being hedged. Prior to expiration of the interest rate swap agreements, West One paid fixed interest rates averaging 8.39% in 1993 and 8.46% in 1992 and received floating interest rates based on LIBOR. The credit and market risks associated with forward sale and purchased option contracts, and interest rate swaps arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contracts and from fluctuations in securities' values and interest rates. West One limits credit risk by restricting counterparties to a list of approved institutions. Generally, West One does not require collateral for these types of instruments. (c) The credit and market risks associated with foreign exchange contracts, which may arise from the counterparty's inability to make payment at the settlement date and fluctuations in value of a foreign currency in relation to the U.S. dollar, were nominal at December 31, 1993 and 1992. West One is a defendant in various pending lawsuits, arising in the ordinary course of business, none of which are expected to have a material effect on West One's financial position or results of operations. -42- NOTE 9. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY Authorized capital stock of West One consists of 75,000,000 shares of $1.00 par value common stock and 5,000,000 shares of $1.00 par value preferred stock, of which 150,000 preferred shares are reserved for issuance under the Shareholder Rights Plan. On July 15, 1993, the Board of Directors declared a two-for-one common stock split, issued in the form of stock dividend, payable August 13, 1993 to shareholders of record on July 23, 1993. The number of common shares outstanding, shares issued, stock option information, dividends declared per share, common stock and retained earnings have been restated to reflect the stock split for all prior periods presented. At December 31, 1993 securities available for sale were stated at market and the resulting net after-tax unrealized gain of $9,083 is presented as a component of shareholders' equity. On October 19, 1989 the Board of Directors adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan. Under the terms of the Plan, the Board declared a dividend distribution of one Right for each share of common stock outstanding on October 31, 1989, or at specified times thereafter. When initially issued each Right entitled the registered holder to purchase from West One a unit consisting of one-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $150 per unit, subject to adjustment. Following a dividend distribution on August 13, 1993 of one share of common stock for each share of common stock outstanding as of July 23, 1993, pursuant to the adjustment provision contained in the Rights Plan, each share of common stock outstanding following the distribution had associated with it 0.5 Rights, and each new share of common stock issued thereafter and prior to the Distribution Date (as defined) will be issued 0.5 Rights. The rights will become exercisable upon the occurrence of specified events which could result in a change in control of West One or upon the determination by the Board that an Adverse Person (as defined) beneficially owns 10 percent or more of the outstanding common stock. Once the Rights become exercisable, if the Board determines that a person is an Adverse Person or a person becomes the owner of 25 percent or more of the then-outstanding shares of common stock (with certain exceptions), each holder of a Right (other than an Acquiring Person (as defined) or an Adverse Person) will thereafter become entitled to receive, upon payment of the exercise price, common stock (or in certain circumstances other consideration) having a value equal to two times the exercise price or, at the discretion of the Board, to receive common stock (or other consideration) having one-half that value without payment of the exercise price. The Rights are nonvoting, may be redeemed by West One at a price of $.01 per Right at any time until ten business days after an individual or group acquires 20 percent of West One's common stock and expire on October 31, 1999. The issuance of the Rights is intended to encourage any potential acquiror of West One to negotiate the manner and terms of the transaction with the Board and to protect shareholders from unsolicited tender offers which do not treat all shareholders in a fair and equal manner, and from other coercive takeover tactics. Under shareholder approved incentive programs, the Board of Directors may grant to key employees options to purchase common stock and other stock-based awards. All options are to be granted at market value of the stock at date of grant and may be exercisable over periods up to ten years. No other stock-based awards have been granted. The following summary sets forth the activity under the option plan: Option Price Available Options Range per Share for Grant Outstanding December 31, 1990 $6.023 - $13.000 370,134 960,174 Authorized - 1,700,000 - Granted 12.188 - 17.000 (183,000) 183,000 Exercised 6.023 - 13.000 - (199,180) Canceled 11.438 - 12.313 - (27,000) December 31, 1991 6.553 - 17.000 1,887,134 916,994 Granted 16.688 - 25.250 (289,226) 289,226 Exercised 6.553 - 14.188 - (91,806) December 31, 1992 6.629 - 25.250 1,597,908 1,114,414 Granted 23.875 - 28.625 (263,701) 263,701 Exercised 6.629 - 14.188 - (125,520) Canceled 11.438 - 24.500 5,000 (5,000) Expired 11.438 - 12.313 (1,000) - December 31, 1993 6.629 - 28.625 1,338,207 1,247,595 Options exercisable under the plans were 599,880, 516,668 and 472,744 at December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. -43- NOTE 10. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The summary of book value and estimated fair value of principal financial assets and liabilities at December 31 follows: 1993 1992 Estimated Estimated Book Fair Book Fair Dollars in thousands Value Value Value Value Financial assets Cash and short-term investments $465,038 $465,038 $715,872 $715,872 Securities 1,625,815 1,655,796 1,657,469 1,682,799 Loans, net of leases and allowance for credit losses 5,111,455 5,149,693 4,328,487 4,360,747 Financial liabilities Demand and savings deposits $3,961,327 $3,961,327 $3,549,812 $3,549,812 Time certificates of deposit 1,975,720 1,994,389 2,086,527 2,101,580 Short-term borrowings 898,904 898,904 810,023 810,023 Long-term debt 116,460 146,675 117,649 142,074 Financial assets and financial liabilities other than securities and certain long-term debt of West One are not traded in active markets. Estimated fair values require subjective judgments and are approximate. The above estimates of fair value are not necessarily representative of amounts that could be realized in actual market transactions, nor of the underlying value of West One. Changes in the following methodologies and assumptions could significantly affect the estimates: Financial assets The estimated fair value approximates the book value of cash and short-term investments. For securities, the fair value is based on quoted market prices. The book value of securities at December 31, 1993 includes securities available for sale stated at market value and securities held to maturity stated at historical cost. At December 31, 1992, the book value of all securities was historical cost. See Note 2 to the financial statements. The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made, net of the present value of estimated net charge-offs. Financial liabilities The estimated fair value of demand and savings deposits approximates book value. The value of long-term relationships with depositors is not reflected. The fair value of time certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates offered on similar certificates. For short-term borrowings, the fair value approximates book value. The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based on quoted market prices or estimates of discounted cash flows using current rates at which similar financing could be obtained. Off-balance sheet financial instruments Commitments to extend credit and letters of credit represent the principal categories of off-balance sheet financial instruments. The fair value of these commitments is not material. See Note 8 to the financial statements. -44- NOTE 11. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS West One has a noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan covering substantially all employees. Benefits to retired employees are based on years of service and compensation. West One funds at least the minimum annual contributions required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Since plan assets exceeded accumulated benefit obligation, no additional funding was made in 1993, 1992 or 1991. Pension income included the following components for the year ended December 31: Dollars in thousands 1993 1992 1991 Service cost - benefits earned during the year $2,319 $1,819 $1,899 Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 3,788 3,342 3,192 Actual return on plan assets (4,618) (4,617) (11,567) Deferred gain (loss) (1,912) (1,408) 6,232 Amortization of transition asset (725) (725) (725) Pension income $(1,148) $(1,589) $(969) The funded status of the plan and prepaid pension cost at December 31 consisted of: 1993 1992 1991 Actuarial present value of accumulated benefit obligation Vested $(44,497) $(27,202) $(23,271) Nonvested (2,891) (1,592) (1,751) Accumulated benefit obligation $(47,388) $(28,794) $(25,022) Plan assets at fair value U.S. Government securities $16,563 $19,416 $20,282 Equity securities 40,199 32,935 28,589 Other 11,963 12,927 13,099 Total 68,725 65,278 61,970 Total projected benefit obligation for participants' past service (54,489) (38,030) (36,431) Plan assets in excess of projected benefit obligation 14,236 27,248 25,539 Unrecognized net (gain) loss and effect of changes in actuarial assumptions 6,892 (6,238) (5,350) Unrecognized net transition asset being recognized over participants' average remaining service (4,610) (5,379) (6,147) Unrecognized prior service cost 260 - - Prepaid pension cost $16,778 $15,631 $14,042 West One also has three unfunded supplemental retirement plans. The Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan provides supplemental benefits to eligible employees when the employee's earnings exceed the dollar amount used for the definition of a highly compensated employee in the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 414 (q) (1) (B) during each of the three preceding years. The Non-Qualified IRC 415 Benefit Limit Make-Up plan provides for additional payments to be made to employees whose defined pension benefit exceeds the limit for maximum benefits from the defined benefit pension plan. The Executive Deferred Compensation Pension Make-Up plan covers pension benefits resulting from salary deferrals which have not been included in the computation of benefits under the regular defined benefit pension plan. -45- Pension expense for the supplemental retirement plans included the following for years ended December 31: 1993 1992 1991 Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) $316 $303 $300 Non-Qualified IRC 415 Benefit Limit Make-Up 16 51 36 Executive Deferred Compensation Pension Make-Up 38 26 22 Total supplemental pension expense $370 $380 $358 Pension expense for the SERP included the following components for the years ended December 31: 1993 1992 1991 Service cost - benefits earned during the year $113 $115 $118 Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 154 139 134 Amortization of net transition obligation 49 49 48 Pension expense $316 $303 $300 The funded status of the SERP and pension liability at December 31 consisted of: 1993 1992 1991 Actuarial present value of accumulated benefit obligation: Vested $(1,747) $(642) $(522) Nonvested (6) - - Accumulated benefit obligation $(1,753) $(642) $(522) Projected benefit obligation for participants' past service $(2,185) $(1,596) $(1,375) Unrecognized net (gain) loss and effect of changes in actuarial assumptions 320 (29) (29) Unrecognized net transition obligation being recognized over participants' average remaining service 584 633 682 Additional liability (472) - - Pension liability $(1,753) $(992) $(722) Assumptions used for projected benefit obligations, computed using the projected unit credit method, were: 1993 1992 1991 Discount rate 7.5% 9.5% 9.5% Rate of increase in compensation levels 3.0 6.0 6.0 Long-term rate of return on assets 10.5 10.5 10.5 -46- The change in salary increase assumption increased pension income by $319 in 1993. Changes in the assumed participant withdrawal rates increased pension income $789 in 1992. The change in the assumed long-term rate of return on plan assets increased pension income in 1991 by $508. West One has an Employee Thrift Investment Plan, under IRC Section 401, covering substantially all employees. Under the plan, West One made contributions of 50% of participating employees' salary deferrals up to 6% of salary in 1993, 5% of salary in 1992 and 4% of salary in 1991, aggregating $2,384 for 1993, $1,566 for 1992 and $1,078 for 1991. West One provides certain health care insurance benefits for retired employees and their dependents. Substantially all of West One's retirees are eligible for those benefits if they retired directly from service with at least ten years of credited service. Retiree contributions are required depending on age and number of years of service at the time of retirement. Net periodic postretirement benefit expense included the following components for the year ended December 31, 1993: 1993 Service cost $165 Interest cost 959 Amortization of transition obligation 554 Net periodic postretirement benefit expense $1,678 The reconciliation of the funded status of the plan at December 31, 1993 follows: Accumulated postretirement benefit obligation: 1993 Retirees and dependents $(10,477) Eligible active employees 243 Other active plan participants (3,122) Accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (13,356) Unrecognized net transition obligation 10,519 Unrecognized net loss 1,884 Accrued postretirement benefit cost $(953) Postretirement benefit claims for the year ended December 31, 1993 $725 In 1993 West One assumed a 14% annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered retiree and dependent health care benefits. The medical trend rate was assumed to decrease gradually to 6% in 2006 and remain at that level for future years. A one percentage point increase in the assumed health care cost trend rate would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 1993 by $1,314 and the aggregate of the service cost and interest cost components of net periodic postretirement benefit expense for 1993 by $138. The discount rate used in determining the actuarial present value of the projected postretirement benefit obligation was 7.5%. The salary limits which determine the amount of the deductible paid by the employee were assumed to increase in proportion to West One salary levels. -47- NOTE 12.

Upon realization, the benefit of these tax carryforwards will be reflected as reductions of the purchase price allocated to acquired intangible assets. The tax benefits of stock options exercised of $1,900 in 1993, $1,700 in 1992 and $1,400 in 1991 have been allocated to shareholders' equity. In 1993 the deferred provision for income taxes of $5,800 for unrealized securities gains has been allocated to shareholders' equity. Deferred tax liabilities of approximately $2,100 have not been recognized for a thrift subsidiary's base year tax bad debt reserve of $5,300. If the subsidiary fails to qualify as a savings and loan association or is converted to a commercial bank the bad debt reserve would become taxable. Management does not expect this difference to reverse in the foreseeable future. -49- NOTE 14. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS and RESTRICTIONS Dollars in thousands Regulatory authorities require banks to maintain cash reserves against deposits which vary according to the type and maturity of the deposit. Cash reserve balances at December 31, 1993 and 1992 were $144,998 and $118,460, respectively. Loans to directors, executive officers and their associates are subject to regulatory limitations. Such loans, which are within the regulatory limitations, totaled $35,021 and $36,328 at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively. During 1993 there were $137,254 of additions and $138,561 of reductions of such loans. During 1992 there were $131,029 of additions and $132,704 in reductions of these loans. Federal and state laws also place limitations on the extension of credit by banking subsidiaries to the Parent Company and nonbank affiliates. Under these restrictions, banking subsidiaries may not extend credit beyond an aggregate of $94,155 to the Parent Company as of December 31, 1993. Any extensions of such credit are subject to strict collateral requirements. Federal and state laws restrict the amount of dividends that may be declared by banking subsidiaries without the approval of regulatory authorities. Banking subsidiaries may declare dividends to the Parent Company in 1994 up to $141,465 plus 1994 net income to the date of dividend declaration. NOTE 15.

These financial statements are the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. 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 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 provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of West One Bancorp and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, during 1993 the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities". /s/ Coopers and Lybrand Boise, Idaho January 20, 1994 -53-
