The decision to sell these securities was based on deterioration in the quality of the asset. NOTE F: BUSINESS COMBINATIONS On January 22, 1996, Old Kent acquired Republic Mortgage Corp. ("Republic"), headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, with 19 other offices. The acquisition was treated as a purchase for accounting purposes and, accordingly, results of operations of Republic are included in Old Kent's consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition. Republic's shareholders were issued Old Kent common stock in exchange for all the outstanding shares of Republic. At December 31, 1995, Republic had assets of $39 million and serviced $127 million of residential mortgages for third parties. On February 2, 1996, Old Kent sold its wholly owned subsidiary First National Bank of Lockport to Heritage Financial Services, Inc. The cash sale price was $16,750,000. At the time of the sale, the bank had total assets of $102 million, total deposits of $81 million, and operated from one office in Lockport, Illinois. First National Bank of Lockport was among a group of banks acquired by Old Kent in its 1994 acquisition of EdgeMark Financial Corporation. The sale was consistent with Old Kent's strategic focus on business development and retail banking in the metropolitan Chicago area. On June 4, 1996, Old Kent signed a letter of intent to acquire Seaway Financial Corporation, a bank holding company with assets of approximately $350 million headquartered in Saint Clair, Michigan. Seaway Financial is the parent company of The Commercial and Savings Bank of Saint Clair County, and The Algonac Savings Bank. Seaway provides banking services through fourteen offices in Saint Clair County. The merger is subject to execution of a definitive agreement and shareholder and regulatory approval and is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter of 1996, or the first quarter of 1997. On August 1, 1996, Old Kent acquired National Pacific Mortgage Corporation ("NPMC"), a mortgage company headquartered in Anaheim, California, with 17 branch offices in California and Oregon, for cash and other consideration. At June 30, 1996, NPMC had assets of approximately $100 million and a servicing portfolio of $1.6 billion. OLD KENT FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- Continued (Unaudited) June 30, 1996 NOTE G: SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY On June 17, 1996, the Board of Directors of Old Kent Financial Corporation declared a 5% stock dividend, payable on July 25, 1996, to shareholders of record on June 25, 1996. All per share amounts included in this report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this dividend. At the same meeting, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 2.5 million shares of Old Kent Common Stock which would be reserved for later reissue in connection with future stock dividends, employee benefit plans and other corporate purposes. The directors also authorized the purchase of Old Kent Common Stock intended for use in the acquisition of Seaway Financial Corporation. Based on recent market values, approximately two million shares could be purchased under this authorization. As of July 30, 1996, approximately 325,000 shares of Old Kent Common Stock had been purchased under these authorizations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant factors which have affected the Registrant's financial condition and results of operations during the periods covered by the consolidated financial statements included in this filing. The Registrant's form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 1996, is herein incorporated by reference. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Registrant's net income was $37,561,000 for the second quarter of 1996 compared to $37,393,000 for the same period in 1995. Second quarter net income per share for 1996 was $.79, a 1.3% increase over last year's $.78. For the six month period ended June 30, 1996, net income was $76,795,000 compared to $72,096,000 a year ago and earnings per share was $1.61, a 7.3% increase over last year's $1.50. Total assets were $12.2 billion at quarter-end compared to total assets of $11.9 billion at June 30, 1995. Return on average equity for the second quarter of 1996 was 14.91% compared to 15.77% for the second quarter of 1995. Return on assets was 1.24% for the second quarter of 1996 compared to 1.28% for the second quarter of 1995. The Registrant's net interest income for the second quarter of 1996 was $125.0 million, a 5.1% increase over the $118.9 million recorded in the same period of 1995. The increase was primarily the result of a higher net interest margin of 4.48% for the second quarter of 1996 compared to 4.43% for the second quarter of 1995. The improved net interest margin primarily reflects a decrease in the Registrant's borrowing costs. Also, loans, which tend to yield higher interest, represented a greater portion of total interest-earning assets in 1996. The provision for credit losses was $9.7 million for the second quarter of 1996 and $6.0 million for the second quarter of 1995. The allowance for credit losses as a percent of loans and leases outstanding was 2.20% at June 30, 1996, and 2.34% at June 30, 1995. Impaired loans as a percent of total loans was .54% at June 30, 1996, and .58% at June 30, 1995. Net credit losses were $10.7 million or .55% of average loans for the second quarter of 1996 compared to $1.8 million or .10% of average loans for the same period a year ago. The increase credit loss provision was related to higher loss experience within the Registrant's credit card and lease portfolios. Total other operating income, excluding security transactions and nonrecurring items, increased 31.1% to $49.4 million during the second quarter of 1996 over the same period a year ago. Mortgage banking revenue increased $5.3 million or 79.6% during the second quarter of 1996 over the same period a year ago. This increase includes the effect of Republic Mortgage Corp., which was acquired in January, 1996. Service charges on deposits increased 11.2% or $1.1 million, trust income increased 5.8% and all other income increased $4.7 million or 59.5% over the year ago quarter. The increase in other income includes insurance commissions of $2.3 million associated with Guyot, Hicks, Anderson and Associates, an insurance agency acquired in December 1995. Non-recurring income of $1.3 million in the second quarter of 1996 was attributable to gains on sale of other real estate owned. The second quarter of 1995 included non-recurring income from gains on sale of other real estate owned of approximately $0.9 million, and other recoveries of approximately $1.2 million. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) Total net securities gains for the second quarter of 1996 were $335,000 compared to net losses of $30,000 for the same period of 1995. Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 1996 increased 14.4% over the same period of 1995. Salaries, wages and employee benefits increased 10.7% for the second quarter of 1996 over the second quarter of 1995. The increase was primarily the result of business acquisitions. The number of full-time equivalent employees increased by 67 over a year-ago to 5,310 at June 30, 1996. During the second quarter, advertising and promotion expenses increased $9.7 million compared to the same period a year ago. Of this increase, $7.1 million was attributable to an enhanced allowance for the redemption reserve associated with the Registrant's widely accepted "Cardmiles" program, a credit card product enhancement. During the second quarter of 1996, compared to the same period a year ago, occupancy expense increased 14.8% and equipment expense increased 2.5%. FDIC expenses decreased 94.1%, due to a decrease in the rate assessment by the FDIC. Other operating expenses increased 14.4%. The increase in operating expenses includes the increases resulting from the recent acquisitions of Republic Mortgage Company in January 1996, and Guyot, Hicks, Anderson and Associates, an insurance agency, in December of 1995. BALANCE SHEET CHANGES For the first half of 1996, total loans grew at an annualized rate of 10.9% or $405 million, and commercial loans grew at an annualized rate of 15.6% or $319 million. The growth in commercial loans is primarily a result of increased efforts in the Registrant's eastern Michigan, and Illinois markets. Total securities (at amortized cost) decreased $84 million since year-end 1995. This decrease reflected the use of liquidity in the securities portfolio to fund loan growth. Mortgages held-for-sale increased 23.7% or $64 million and other interest earning assets decreased 40.5% or $96 million, since year end 1995. Total interest-earning assets (at amortized cost) increased 2.6% or $289 million from December 31, 1995. Total deposits increased $466 million or 5.0% from year-end 1995. Non-interest bearing deposits decreased 3.6% or $54 million and interest-bearing deposits increased 6.6% or $520 million. Short- term borrowed funds decreased 16.1% or $211 million from December 31, 1995. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The maintenance of an adequate level of liquidity is necessary to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet customers' loan demand and deposit withdrawals. The banking subsidiaries' liquidity sources consist of securities available-for-sale, maturing loans and securities held-to-maturity, and other short-term investments. Liquidity has also been obtained through liabilities such as customer-related core deposits, funds borrowed, certificates of deposit and public funds deposits. ITEM 2.
