Schedule RC-R--Regulatory Capital

This schedule must be completed by all banks as follows:  Banks that
reported total assets of $1 billion or more in Schedule RC, item 12,
for June 30, 1996, must complete items 2 through 9 and Memoranda items
1 and 2.  Banks with assets of less than $1 billion must complete
items 1 through 3 below or  Schedule RC-R in its entirety, depending on
their response to item 1 below.



                                                                                                                  
1. Test for determining the extent to which Schedule RC-R must be completed.
To be completed only by banks with total assets of less than $1 billion.                                     C480
Indicate in the appropriate box at the right whether the bank has total capital                              Yes    No
greater than or equal to eight percent of adjusted total assets.                                   RCFD 6056               1.



    For purposes of this test, adjusted total assets equals total assets
    less cash, U.S. Treasuries, U.S. Government agency obligations, and 80
    percent of U.S. Government-sponsored agency obligations plus the
    allowance for loan and lease losses and selected off-balance sheet
    items as reported on Schedule RC-L (see instructions).

    If the box marked YES has been checked, then the bank only has to complete
    items 2 and 3 below.  If the box marked NO has been checked, the bank must
    complete the remainder of this schedule.

    A NO response to item 1 does not necessarily mean that the bank's actual
    risk-based capital ratio is less than eight percent or that the bank is not
    in compliance with the risk-based capital guidelines.

    NOTE: All banks are required to complete items 2 and 3 below. See optional
    worksheet for items 3.a through 3.f.

Optional Narrative Statement Concerning the Amounts Reported in the
Reports of Condition and Income at close of business on June 30, 1996

Texas Commerce Bank National Association       Richmond,       Virginia
Legal Title of Bank                             City            State

The management of the reporting bank may, if it wishes, submit a brief
narrative statement on the amounts reported in the Reports of
Condition and Income.  This optional statement will be made available
to the public, along with the publicly available data in the Reports
of Condition and Income, in response to any request for individual
bank report data.  However, the information reported in column A and
in all of Memorandum item 1 of Schedule RC-N is regarded as
confidential and will not be released to the public.  BANKS CHOOSING
TO SUBMIT THE NARRATIVE STATEMENT SHOULD ENSURE THAT THE STATEMENT
DOES NOT CONTAIN THE NAMES OR OTHER IDENTIFICATIONS OF INDIVIDUAL BANK
CUSTOMERS, REFERENCES TO THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN THE CONFIDENTIAL
ITEMS IN SCHEDULE RC-N, OR ANY OTHER INFORMATION THAT THEY ARE NOT
WILLING TO  HAVE MADE PUBLIC OR THAT WOULD COMPROMISE THE PRIVACY OF
THEIR CUSTOMERS.  Banks choosing not to make a statement may check the
"No comment" box below and should make no entries of any kind in the
space provided for the narrative statement; i.e., DO NOT enter in this
space such phrases as "No statement," "Not applicable," "N/A," "No
comment," and "None."

The optional statement must be entered on this sheet.  The statement
should not exceed 100 words.  Further, regardless of the number of
words, the statement must not exceed 750 characters, including
punctuation, indentation, and standard spacing between words and
sentences.  If any submission should exceed 750 characters, as
defined, it will be truncated at 750 characters with no notice to the
submitting bank and the truncated statement will appear as the bank's
statement both on agency computerized records and in computer-file
releases to the public.

All information furnished by the bank in the narrative statement must
be accurate and not misleading.  Appropriate efforts shall be taken by
the submitting bank to ensure the statement's accuracy.  The statement
must be signed, in the space provided below, by a senior officer of
the bank who thereby attests to its accuracy.

If, subsequent to the original submission, material changes are
submitted for the data reported in the Reports of Condition and
Income, the existing narrative statement will be deleted from the
files, and from disclosure; the bank, at its option, may replace it
with a statement, under signature, appropriate to the amended data.

The optional narrative statement will appear in agency records and in
release to the public exactly as submitted (or amended as described in
the preceding paragraph) by the management of the bank (except for the
truncation of statements exceeding the 750-character limit described
above).  THE STATEMENT WILL NOT BE EDITED OR SCREENED IN ANY WAY BY
THE SUPERVISORY AGENCIES FOR ACCURACY OR RELEVANCE.  DISCLOSURE OF THE
STATEMENT SHALL NOT SIGNIFY THAT ANY FEDERAL SUPERVISORY AGENCY
HAS VERIFIED OR CONFIRMED THE ACCURACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED
THEREIN.  A STATEMENT TO THIS EFFECT WILL APPEAR ON ANY PUBLIC RELEASE
OF THE OPTIONAL STATEMENT SUBMITTED BY THE MANAGEMENT OF THE REPORTING
BANK.

LOANS TO EXECUTIVE OFFICERS (Complete as of each Call Report Date)

The following information is required by Public Laws 90-44 and 102-
242, but does not constitute a part of the Report of Condition.  With
each Report of Condition, these Laws require all banks to furnish a
report of all loans or other extensions of credit to their executive
officers made since the date of the previous Report of Condition.
Data regarding individual loans or other extensions of credit are not
required.  If no such loans or other extensions of credit were made
during the period, insert "none" against subitem (a).  (Exclude the
first $15,000 of indebtedness of each executive officer under bank
credit card plan.)  See Sections 215.2 and 215.3 of Title 12 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (Federal Reserve Board Regulation O) for
the definitions of "executive officer" and "extension of credit,"
respectively.  Exclude loans and other extensions of credit to
directors and principal shareholders who are not executive officers.
