                CHEMUNG FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
      NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
                                      
                                      

1.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

      Basis of Presentation

      Chemung Financial Corporation (the Company) operates as a bank holding
      company.  Its only subsidiary is Chemung Canal Trust Company (the Bank). 
      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
      and its wholly owned subsidiary, the Bank.  All material intercompany
      accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

2.    The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect 
      all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, of a normal 
      recurring nature and necessary to present fairly the Corporation's 
      financial position as of June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, results of 
      operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 
      1995 and changes in cash flow position for the six-month periods ended 
      June 30, 1996 and 1995.

3.    Net income per share for the periods presented have been computed by
      dividing net income by 2,081,988 average shares outstanding for June 30,
      1996 and 2,090,481 average shares outstanding for June 30, 1995.

4.    Goodwill, which represents the excess of purchase price over the fair 
      value of identifiable assets acquired, is being amortized over 15 years on
      the straight-line method.  Deposit base intangible, resulting from the 
      Bank's purchase of deposits from the Resolution Trust Company in 1994, is 
      being amortized over the expected useful life of 15 years on a straight-
      line basis.  Amortization periods are monitored to determine if events and
      circumstances require such periods to be reduced.  Periodically, the
      Corporation reviews its goodwill and deposit base intangible assets for
      events or changes in circumstances that may indicate that the carrying
      amount of the assets are not recoverable.

5.    The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
      Accounting Standards No. 122 ("SFAS No. 122") Accounting for Mortgage
      Servicing Rights, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 65.  This statement
      amends certain provisions of Statement 65 to eliminate the accounting
      distinction between rights to service mortgage loans for others that are
      acquired through loan origination activities and those acquired through
      purchase transactions.  The Corporation adopted SFAS No. 122 on January 1,
      1996 and there was no material impact upon its financial statements.

6.    The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
      Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS No. 123") Accounting for Stock-Based
      Compensation which encourages, but does not require, companies to use a 
      fair value based method of determining compensation cost for grants of 
      stock options under stock-based employee compensation plans.  Companies 
      electing to continue accounting for these plans under the provisions of 
      Opinion 25 will be required to present pro forma disclosures of net income
      and net  

CHEMUNG FINANCIAL CORPORATION FORM 10-Q (JUNE 30, 1996) NOTES (CONTINUED)

      income per share, as if a fair value based method had been applied.  The
      Corporation adopted SFAS No. 123 on January 1, 1996 and there was no 
      impact upon its financial statements as the Corporation does not currently
      have a stock-based compensation plan. 

7.    On June 28, 1996 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
      of Financial Accounting Standards No. 125 ("SFAS No. 125") Accounting for
      Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of
      Liabilities.  This statement provides accounting and reporting standards
      for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
      liabilities based on consistent application of a financial-components
      approach that focuses on control.  The Corporation is required to adopt 
      SFAS No. 125 on January 1, 1997.  Adoption of SFAS No. 125 is not expected
      to have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements.


Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results 
          of Operation


      Consolidated total assets at June 30, 1996 were $521.5 million, an 
increase of $19.6 million (3.90%) from the beginning of the year.  Net loan 
balances at June 30, 1996 were $274.1 million which represent an increase of 
$15.0 million (5.80%) since the beginning of the year.  This growth in our loan 
portfolio has been spread throughout all of our major loan sectors with 
commercial loan balances showing the most significant growth, with balances 
increasing $7.6 million (8.50%).  We continue to see steady growth in both total
consumer loans and mortgage balances with increases since the beginning of the 
year of $4.4 million (4.30%) and $3.0 million (4.15%) respectively.


      Total deposits at June 30, 1996 were $451.0 million, an increase of $24.1
million (5.65%) when compared to deposits at December 31, 1995.  This increase
in deposits is primarily due to increases in municipal deposits as management 
has been more aggressive in obtaining and retaining those deposits which have
provided the primary funding sources for both the aforementioned loan growth as
well as increases in our securities portfolio.


      The Available for Sale segment of the securities portfolio was $182.9
million at June 30, 1996 compared to $171.9 million at the beginning of the 
year.  Interest rates have trended upward since the end of 1995, causing the 
Allowance Valuation to decline by $2.7 million since December 31, 1995.  The 
Held to Maturity segment of the portfolio at June 30, 1996 was $11.6 million 
versus $7.6 million at the beginning of the year.


      Amortized cost and fair value, maturity duration, and unrealized gains and
losses for the components in each of the Available for Sale and Held to Maturity
categories of the security portfolio as of June 30, 1996 are set forth in the
following tables:

            Mortgage-backed securities are expected to have shorter average 
lives than their contractual maturities as shown above, because borrowers may 
repay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

for securities held to maturity as of June 30, 1996 are as follows:

     Gross realized gains on sales of securities Available for Sale for the 
six-month period ended June 30, 1996 were $384,152.

                                         
     
     Included in the Corporate Stocks component in the above tables are 17,174
shares of Student Loan Marketing Association ("Sallie Mae") at a cost basis of
$5,499 and fair value of $1,270,876.  These shares were acquired as preferred
shares (a permitted exception to the U.S. Government regulation banning bank
ownership of equity securities) in the original capitalization of the U.S.
Government Agency .  Later, the shares were converted to common stock as Sallie
Mae recapitalized.  Additionally, at June 30, 1996, the banking subsidiary's
equity portfolio held marketable investments in listed securities totaling
$92,949 at cost with a total fair value of $3,506,100.  These shares were
acquired prior to the enactment of the Banking Act of 1933.  Other equities
included in the bank portfolio are 9,964 shares of Federal Reserve Bank and
15,044 shares of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York valued at $498,200 and
$1,504,400 respectively.  Management has no current plans for selling these
investments.

                                         
     Consolidated net earnings for the second quarter of 1996 were $1.339
million, down $66 thousand (4.69%) as compared to the second quarter of 1995. 
Net earnings per share for the quarter were $0.64 versus $0.67, a decline of
$0.03 (4.48%).  The decline in net earnings and earnings per share is due to the
fact that during the second quarter of 1995, the Corporation had realized gains
from the sale of available for sale securities of $280 thousand, while no
realized gains were taken during the second quarter of 1996.  Consolidated net
earnings for the six-month period ending June 30, 1996 were $2.885 million, an
increase of $226 thousand (8.51%).  Net earnings per share for the six-month
period were $1.39 versus $1.27 the prior year, an increase of $0.12 (9.45%) on
8,493 fewer average shares outstanding.  Earnings for the six-month period were
positively impacted by a $322 thousand (3.00%) increase in Net Interest Income
due primarily to a higher level of average loan balances during the first six
months of 1996, a $208 thousand (7.10%) increase in Other Operating Income, as
well as a $59 thousand (18.14%) increase in realized gains on security
transactions.
                                         

     At the present time, Congress is considering legislation for the
recapitalization of the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") which would
include a one-time charge to banks having deposits insured by the SAIF. If
enacted, approximately $36 million of the Bank's deposits will be subjected to
this assessment, which could result in a one-time expense of anywhere from $275
thousand to $320 thousand.

                                         
     Proceeds from the maturities and sales of securities and student loans
trailed purchases of securities, loan originations, net of repayments and net
purchases of premises and equipment by $32.3 million during the first six months
of 1996.  This compares to the first six months of 1995 when proceeds from the
maturities and sales of securities and student loans exceeded purchases of
securities, loan originations, net of repayments and net purchases of premises
and equipment by $11.1 million.  Proceeds from the sale of Available for Sale
securities were $15.2 million during the first six months of 1996 versus $5.4
million the previous year.  Securities purchases during the six months ended 
June 30, 1996 were $58.5 million versus $22 million in 1995, while loan 
originations, net of repayments were $16.5 million versus $17.4 million during 
the first six months of 1995.


     Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $18.2 million as compared
to a negative $13.6 million during the first six months of 1995.  Core deposits
(Demand, NOW, Savings and Insured Money Market Accounts) decreased $6.9 million
while certificates of deposit and individual retirement accounts increased $31.1
million.  During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the corporation purchased
9,887 Treasury shares at an average price of $28.26 per share, and sold 7,280
Treasury shares at $27.75 per share, all of which were purchased by the
corporation's subsidiary's Profit-Sharing, Savings and Investment Plan (401-K).

     Based upon past experience, as well as an ongoing review of the risk
inherent in our loan portfolio, management has reduced the loan loss provision
for the first six months from $400 thousand to $300 thousand.  At 218% of 
non-performing loans and 1.41% of total loans, the Allowance for Loan Losses is
viewed by management as adequate relative to risk.  Non-performing loans at June
30, 1996 constituted 0.64% of total loans.

     Changes in the allowance for loan losses for the six months ended June 30,
1996 is as follows:



                                                                  June 30, 1996

            Included in the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 1996 is an 
allowance for impaired loans of $276 thousand versus $199 thousand at the 
beginning of the year, and $212 thousand at March 31, 1996.  Management 
distinguishes between impaired and non-accrual loans as follows:


Impaired Loans -  A loan would be considered impaired when it is probable that
after having considered current information and events regarding the borrower's
ability to repay their obligations, the corporation will be unable to collect 
all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.    

Non-Accrual Loans - A loan is placed on non-accrual when it becomes past due and
is referred to legal counsel, or in the case of a commercial loan which becomes
90 days delinquent, or in the case of a consumer loan (not guaranteed by a
government agency) or a real estate loan which becomes 120 days delinquent
unless, because of collateral or other circumstances, it is deemed to be
collectible.  When placed on non-accrual, previously accrued interest is
reversed.  Loans may also be placed in non-accrual if management believes such
classification is warranted for other reasons.
            
            At June 30, 1996, the allocation of the allowance for loan losses is
as follows:



                                                    Reported Period
                                                     June 30, 1996

            For the periods ended June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, the 
following table summarized the Corporation's non-accrual and past due loans:

            Non-accrual loans                  $1,461                        $1,119

            Accruing loans past due            $  334                        $  681
              90 days or more
            
            

            At June 30, 1996, the Corporation has no commercial loans for which 
payments are presently current but the borrowers are currently experiencing 
severe financial difficulties.  At June 30, 1996, no loan concentrations to 
borrowers engaged in the same or similar industries exceeded 10% of total loans 
and the Corporation has no interest-bearing assets other than loans that meet 
the non-accrual, past due, restructured or potential problem loan criteria.

            On June 30, 1996, the Corporations's consolidated leverage ratio was
8.53%.  The Tier I and Total Risk Adjusted Capital ratios were 15.11% and 
16.36%, respectively.
