        FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 AND 1996 (UNAUDITED)
             AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
- ------                                             

     The accounting and reporting policies of Summit Bancshares, Inc. (the
"Corporation") and  Subsidiaries are in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.  A summary of the more significant policies follows:

     Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
     -----------------------------------------------------

     The consolidated financial statements of the Corporation include its
     accounts and those of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Summit National Bank
     and Summit Community Bank, National Association (the "Subsidiary Banks")
     and Summit Bancservices, Inc., a wholly-owned operations subsidiary.   All
     significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
     consolidation.
 
     Use of Estimates
     ----------------

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
     disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
     financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
     during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those
     estimates.

     Cash and Due From Banks
     -----------------------

     The Subsidiary Banks are required to maintain certain balances at the
     Federal Reserve Bank based on their levels of deposits. During the first
     three months of 1997 the average cash balance maintained at the Federal
     Reserve Bank was $3,143,000. Compensating balances held at correspondent
     banks, to minimize service charges, averaged approximately $13,600,000
     during the same period.

     Investment Securities
     ---------------------

     The Corporation follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
     115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" in
     the accounting and reporting for investments in equity securities that have
     readily determined fair values and for all investments in debt securities.
     Those investments are to be classified in three categories and accounted
     for as follows:

     -   Debt securities that the Corporation has the positive intent and
         ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity
                                                       ----------------
         securities and reported at amortized cost.

     -   Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the
         purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading
                                                                    -------
         securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses
         included in earnings.

     -   Debt and equity securities not classified as either held-to-maturity
         securities or trading securities are classified as available-for-sale
                                                            ------------------
         securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses
         excluded from earnings and reported in a separate component of
         shareholders' equity.

     The Corporation has the ability and intent to hold to maturity its
     investment securities classified as held-to-maturity; accordingly, no
     adjustment has been made for the excess, if any, of amortized cost over
     market.  In determining the investment category classifications, management
     considers its asset/liability strategy, changes in interest rates and
     prepayment risk, the need to increase capital and other factors.  Under
     certain circumstances (including the deterioration of the issuer's
     creditworthiness, a change in tax law, or statutory or regulatory
     requirements), the Corporation may change the investment security
     classification.  In 1997 and 1996 the Corporation held no securities that
     would have been classified as trading securities.

     All investment securities are adjusted for amortization of premiums and
     accretion of discounts.  Amortization of premiums and accretion of
     discounts are recorded to income over the contractual maturity or estimated
     life of the individual investment on the level yield method.  Gain or loss
     on sale of investments is based upon the specific identification method and
     the gain or loss is recorded in non-interest income.  Income earned on the
     Corporation's investments in state  and political subdivisions is not
     taxable.

                                                                               9

 
NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd.)
- ------                                                       

     Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses
     -----------------------------------

     Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding less unearned discount
     and the allowance for loan losses.  Unearned discount on installment loans
     is recognized as income over the terms of the loans by a method
     approximating the interest method.  Interest income on all  other loans is
     recognized based upon the principal amounts outstanding.  The accrual of
     interest on a loan is discontinued when, in the opinion of management,
     there is doubt about the ability of the borrower to pay interest or
     principal.  Interest previously earned, but uncollected on such loans, is
     written off.  When loans are put on non-accrual all payments received are
     applied to the principal and no interest income is recorded until the loan
     is returned to accrual status or the principal has been reduced to zero.

     The Corporation follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
     114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," as amended by
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 118, "Accounting by
     Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosure."
     Under this standard, the allowance for loan losses related to loans that
     are identified for evaluation in accordance with Statement No. 114
     (impaired loans) is based on discounted cash flows using the loan's initial
     effective rate or the fair value of the collateral for certain collateral
     dependent loans.

     The allowance for loan losses is comprised of amounts charged against
     income in the form of a provision for loan losses as determined by
     management.  Management's evaluation is based on a number of factors,
     including the Subsidiary Banks' loss experience in relation to outstanding
     loans and the existing level of the allowance, prevailing and prospective
     economic conditions, and management's continuing review of the discounted
     cash flow values of impaired loans and its evaluation of the quality of the
     loan portfolio.  Loans are placed on non-accrual status when management
     believes that the borrower's financial condition, after giving
     consideration to economic and business conditions and collection efforts,
     is such that collection of interest is doubtful.  Loans are charged against
     the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the
     collectibility of the principal is unlikely.

     Premises and Equipment
     ----------------------

     Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
     Depreciation expense is computed on the straight-line method based upon the
     estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three to forty years.
     Maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expenses.  Renewals and
     betterments are added to the asset accounts and depreciated over the
     periods benefitted.  Depreciable assets sold or retired are removed from
     the asset and related accumulated depreciation accounts and any gain or
     loss is reflected in the income and expense accounts.

     Other Real Estate
     -----------------

     Other real estate is foreclosed property held pending disposition and is
     valued at the lower of its fair value or the recorded investment in the
     related loan.  At foreclosure, if the fair value of the real estate
     acquired is less than the bank's recorded investment in the related loan, a
     writedown is recognized through a charge to the allowance for loan losses.
     Any subsequent reduction in value is recognized by a charge to income.
     Operating expenses of such properties, net of related income, and gains and
     losses on their disposition are included in non-interest expense.

     Federal Income Taxes
     --------------------

     The Corporation joins with its Subsidiaries in filing a consolidated
     federal income tax return.  The Subsidiaries pay to the parent a charge
     equivalent to their current federal income tax based on the separate
     taxable income of the Subsidiaries.

     The Corporation and the Subsidiaries maintain their records for financial
     reporting and income tax reporting purposes on the accrual basis of
     accounting.  Deferred income taxes are provided in accordance with
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income
     Taxes".  Deferred income taxes are provided for accumulated temporary
     differences due to basic differences for assets and liabilities for
     financial reporting and income tax purposes.

     Realization of net deferred tax assets is dependent on generating
     sufficient future taxable income.  Although realization is not assured,
     management believes it is more likely than not that all of the net deferred
     tax assets will be realized.  The amount of the net deferred tax asset
     considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if
     estimates of future taxable income are reduced.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents
     -------------------------

     For the purpose of presentation in the Statements of Cash Flows, cash and
     cash equivalents are defined as those amounts included in the balance sheet
     caption "Cash and Due from Banks."

     Reclassification
     ----------------

     Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1996 financial statements
     to conform to the 1997 presentation.

     Audited Financial Statements
     ----------------------------

     The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1996, and the
     consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity and cash
     flows for the year ended December 31, 1996 are headed "unaudited" in these
     financial statements.  These statements were reported in the Securities
     Exchange Commission Form 10-K as of December 31, 1996 as "audited" but are
     required to be reflected in these statements as unaudited because of the
     absence of an independent auditor's report.

NOTE 10 - Related Party Transactions
- -------                             

  The Subsidiary Banks have transactions made in the ordinary course of business
with certain of its officers, directors and their affiliates.  All loans
included in such transactions are made on substantially the same terms,
including interest rate and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for
comparable transactions with other persons.  Total loans outstanding to such
parties amounted to approximately $3,819,000 at December 31, 1996.


NOTE 11 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
- -------                                         

  In the normal course of business, there are various outstanding commitments
and contingent liabilities, such as guarantees and commitments to extend credit,
which are not reflected in the financial statements.  No losses are anticipated
as a result of these transactions.  Commitments are most frequently extended for
real estate, commercial and industrial loans.

  At  March 31, 1997, outstanding documentary and standby letters of credit
totaled $4,624,000  and commitments to extend credit totaled $ 78,861,000.


NOTE 12 - Stock Option Plans
- -------                     

  The Corporation has an Incentive Stock Option Plan ("1993 Plan") with 300,000
shares (adjusted for the April 1993 and December 1995 two-for-one stock splits)
of common stock reserved for grant thereunder.  The 1993 Plan provides for the
granting to management employees of Summit Bancshares, Inc. and subsidiaries,
incentive stock options, as defined under the current tax law. The options under
the 1993 Plan will be exercisable for ten years from the date of grant and
generally vest ratably over a five year period.

  The Board of Directors and the Shareholders have approved a new plan, the 1997
Incentive Stock Option Plan ("1997 Plan").  The 1997 Plan reserves 300,000
shares for grants thereunder.  No grants have been made under this plan.

  Options under both plans will be granted at prices which will not be less than
100-110% of the fair market value of the underlying common stock at the date of
grant.  The Corporation applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations
in accounting for its plans.  Since the option prices are considered to
approximate fair market value at date of grant, no compensation expense has been
reported.  Had compensation cost for these plans been determined consistent with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" the Corporation's net income and earnings per share would have
been reduced by insignificant amounts on a proforma basis for the year ended
December 31, 1996, or the three months ended March 31, 1997.

 The following is a summary of transactions during the periods presented:

NOTE 13 - Employee Benefit Plans
- -------                         

     The Corporation has a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially
all of its employees.  The benefits are based on years of service and the
employee's compensation history.  The employee's compensation used in the
benefit calculation is the highest average for any five consecutive years of
employment within the employee's last ten years of employment.

     Funding for the plan is provided by employer contributions to trust funds
in amounts determined by actuarial assumptions and valuation of the plan.
Contributions are intended to provide not only for benefits attributed to
service to date but also for those expected to be earned in the future.

     In 1992, the Corporation established a Management Security Plan to provide
key employees with retirement, death or disability benefits in addition to those
provided by the Pension Plan.  The expense charged to operations for such future
obligations was $73,000 and $56,000 during the first three months of 1997 and
1996, respectively, and $239,000 for the year 1996.

Other Post Retirement Benefits
- ------------------------------

     The Corporation provides certain health care benefits for certain retired
employees who bear all costs of these benefits. These benefits are covered under
the "Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act" (COBRA).

NOTE 15 - Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
- -------                                                    

  The Corporation is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet
risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its
customers.  These financial instruments include loan commitments, standby
letters of credit and documentary letters of credit.  The instruments involve,
to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the
amount recognized in the financial statements.

  The Corporation's exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by
the other party of these loan commitments and standby letters of credit is
represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.  The Corporation
uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations
as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

  The total contractual amounts of financial instruments with off-balance sheet
risk are as follows (in thousands):


 
                                          March 31,
                                      -----------------
                                        1997     1996
                                      -------   -------
                                         
 
Financial Instruments Whose
  Contract Amounts Represent
     Credit Risk:
     Commitments to Extend Credit     $78,861   $69,281  

     Documentary and Standby
       Letters of Credit                4,624     4,566


    Since many of the loan commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the
total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
The Corporation evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case
basis.  The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the
Corporation upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation
of the counterparty.  Collateral held varies but may include accounts
receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, owner occupied real estate
and income-producing commercial properties.

    The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the
same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.


NOTE 16 - Concentrations of Credit Risk
- -------                                

    The Subsidiary Banks  grant commercial, consumer and real estate loans in
their direct market  which is defined as Fort Worth and its surrounding area.
The Board of Directors of each Subsidiary Bank monitors concentrations of credit
by purpose, collateral and industry at least quarterly.  Certain limitations for
concentration are set by the Boards.  Additional loans in excess of these limits
must have prior approval of the bank's directors' loan committee.  Although its
Subsidiary Banks have diversified loan portfolios, a substantial portion of its
debtors' abilities to honor their contracts is dependent upon the strength of
the local and state economy.


NOTE 17 - Litigation
- -------             

    Certain of the Subsidiary Banks are involved in legal actions arising in the
ordinary course of business.  It is the opinion of management, after reviewing
such actions with outside legal counsel, that the settlement of these matters
will not materially affect the Corporation's financial position.

NOTE 18 - Stock Repurchase Plan
- -------                        

    On April 16, 1996, the Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase plan.
The plan authorized management to purchase up to 157,819 shares of the
Corporation's common stock over the next twelve months through the open market
or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with all applicable state
and federal laws and regulations.

    In 1996, 9,000 shares were purchased by the Corporation through a similar
repurchase plan through the open market and canceled.  In the first three months
of 1997, no shares were purchased.


NOTE 19 - Subsequent Event
- -------                   

    On April 15, 1997, the Board of Directors of the Corporation approved a
quarterly dividend of $.09 per share to be paid on May 15, 1997 to shareholders
of record on May 1, 1997.

    Also on April 15, 1997, the Board of Directors approved a renewal of the
stock repurchase plan, thereby authorizing the purchase of up to 161,782 shares
of the Corporation's common stock over the next twelve months.

    Also on April 15, 1997, at the annual meeting of Shareholders, the
Shareholders ratified the adoption of the 1997 Incentive Stock Option Plan that
had previously been approved by the Board of Directors.  This plan authorizes
the granting of options to purchase up to 300,000 shares of the Corporation's
common stock.

NOTE 20 - Fair Values of Financial Instruments
- -------                                       

    The following methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in
estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

     Cash and cash equivalents:  The carrying amounts reported in the balance
     sheet for cash and due from banks and federal funds sold approximate those
     assets' fair values.

     Investment securities (including mortgage-backed securities):  Fair values
     for investment securities are based on quoted market prices, where
     available.  If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are
     based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

     Loans:  For variable-rate loans, fair values are based on carrying values.
     The fair values for fixed rate loans such as mortgage loans (e.g., one-to-
     four family residential) and installment loans are estimated using
     discounted cash flow analysis.  The carrying amount of accrued interest
     receivable approximates its fair value.

     Deposit liabilities:  The fair value disclosed for interest bearing and
     noninterest-bearing demand deposits, passbook savings, and certain types of
     money market accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on
     demand at the reporting date or their carrying amounts.  Fair values for
     fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash
     flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on
     certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on
     time deposits.

     Short-term borrowings:  The carrying amounts of borrowings under repurchase
     agreements approximate their fair values.

                                                                              19

Summary
- -------

     Net income for the first quarter of 1997 was $1,672,000, or $.52 per share,
compared with $1,285,000, or $.41 per share, for the first quarter of 1996.  Per
share amounts are based on average shares outstanding of 3,234,424 for the first
quarter of 1997 and 3,154,326 for the comparable period of 1996.  On a per share
basis, net income increased 26.8% over the first quarter of the prior year.

     Outstanding loans at March 31, 1997 of $232.4 million represented an
increase of $43.4 million, or 23.0%, over March 31, 1996 and an increase of
$12.4 million, or 5.6%, from December 31, 1996.

     Total deposits at March 31, 1997 of $354.5 million represented an increase
of $30.6 million, or 9.5%, over March 31, 1996 and an increase of $9.4 million,
or 2.7%, from December 31, 1996.
 
     In the first quarter, net interest income increased 15.7% over the previous
year.  An increase in non-interest expense of 2.5% partially offset the increase
in net interest income.

     The following table summarizes the Corporation's performance for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 (tax equivalent basis and dollars in
thousands).

Net Interest Income
- -------------------

      Net interest income (tax equivalent) for the first quarter of 1997 was
$4,790,000 which represented an increase of $649,000, or 15.7%, over the first
quarter of 1996.  This increase was heavily contributed to by a 22.9% increase
in average loans for the first quarter of 1997 versus the same quarter last
year.

      The following table summarizes the effects of changes in interest rates,
average volumes of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities on net

Non-interest Income
- -------------------

     The major component of non-interest income is service charges on deposits.
Other service fees are the majority of other non-interest income.

     The following table reflects the changes in non-interest income during the
periods presented (dollars in thousands).

    Non-recurring income is primarily interest recovered on loans charged-off in
prior years.  The decrease in other non-interest income was primarily due to
decreases in fees earned from investment brokerage services and issuances of
letters of credit.

Non-interest Expense
- --------------------

     Non-interest expenses include all expenses other than interest expense,
provision for loan losses and income tax expense.

     The following table summarizes the changes in non-interest expense during

                                     ======     ======


  Total non-interest expense increased 2.5% in the first quarter of 1997 over
1996, reflecting increases in salaries and benefits, occupancy expense,
furniture and equipment expenses, legal and professional expense and taxes-
other.  As a percent of average assets, non-interest expenses were 2.92% in the
first quarter of 1997 and 3.16% in the same period of 1996.  The "efficiency
ratio" (non-interest expenses divided by total non-interest income plus net
interest income) was 51.3% for the first quarter of 1997.  These measures of
operating efficiency compare very favorably to other financial institutions in
the Corporation's peer group.

24

 
  The increase in salaries and employee benefits for the first quarter of 1997
is due to salary merit increases, incentive compensation accrual increases, and
an increase in pension plan expense.  Also, the average number of full-time
equivalent employees increased by three in the first quarter of 1997 to an
average full-time equivalent of 138.

  The increase in occupancy expense is primarily due to increased repairs and
increased property taxes.

  The increase in furniture and equipment expense is primarily a result of
increased depreciation for new furniture and equipment acquired in the past
year.

 Legal and professional fees increased due to increased miscellaneous
professional fees.

  Taxes-other increased due to increased state franchise taxes paid on increased
levels of capital.

  Other operating expenses decreased in the first quarter of 1997 due to
decreases in various miscellaneous operating costs.

Interest Rate Sensitivity
- -------------------------

    Interest rate sensitivity is the relationship between changes in market
interest rates and net interest income due to the repricing characteristics of
assets and liabilities.

    The following table, commonly referred to as a "static gap report",
indicates the interest rate sensitivity position at March 31, 1997 and may not
be reflective of positions in subsequent periods (dollars in thousands):

    The preceding static gap report reflects a cumulative liability sensitive
position during the one year horizon.  An inherent weakness of this report is
that it ignores the relative volatility any one category of assets liability may
have in relation to other categories or market rates in general.  For instance,
the rate paid on NOW accounts typically moves slower than the three month T-
Bill.  Management attempts to capture this relative volatility by utilizing a
simulation model with a "beta factor" adjustment which estimates the volatility
of rate sensitive assets and/or liabilities in relation to other market rates.

    Beta factors are an estimation of the long term, multiple interest rate
environment relation between an individual account and market rates in general.
For instance, NOW, savings and money market accounts, which are repriceable
within 30 days will have considerably lower beta factors than variable rate
loans and most investment categories.  Taking this into consideration, it is
quite possible for a bank with a negative cumulative gap to total asset ratio to
have a positive "beta adjusted" gap risk position.

    As a result of applying the beta factors established by management to the
earning assets and interest bearing liabilities in the static gap report via a
simulation model, the negative cumulative gap to total assets ratio at one year
of (10.3%) was reversed to a positive 14.9% "beta adjusted" gap position.

    Management feels that the "beta adjusted" gap risk technique more accurately
reflects the Corporation's gap position.

Capital
- -------

    The Federal Reserve Board has guidelines for capital to total assets
(leverage) and capital standards for bank holding companies.  The Comptroller of
the Currency also has similar guidelines for national banks.  These guidelines
require a minimum level of Tier I capital to total assets of 3 percent.  A
banking organization operating at or near these levels is expected to have well-
diversified risk, excellent asset quality, high liquidity, good earnings and in
general be considered a strong banking organization. Organizations not meeting
these characteristics are expected to operate well above these minimum capital
standards.  Thus, for all but the most highly rated organizations, the minimum
Tier I leverage ratio is to be 3 percent plus minimum additional cushions of at
least 100 to 200 basis points.  At the discretion of the regulatory authorities,
additional capital may be required.

    At March 31, 1997, total capital to total assets was 8.90%.

    The Federal Reserve Board and Comptroller of the Currency also have risk-
adjusted capital adequacy guidelines.  Capital under these new guidelines is
defined as Tier I and Tier II.  At Summit Bancshares, Inc. the only components
of Tier I and Tier II capital are shareholders' equity and a portion of the
allowance for loan losses, respectively.

    The guidelines also stipulate that four categories of risk weights (0, 20,
50 and 100 percent), primarily based on the relative credit risk of the
counterparty,  be applied to the different types of balance sheet assets.  Risk
weights for all off-balance sheet exposures are determined by a two-step process
whereby the face value of the off-balance sheet item is converted to a "credit
equivalent amount" and that amount is assigned to the appropriate risk category.

    The regulatory minimum ratio for total qualifying capital is 8.00% of which
4.00% must be Tier I capital.  At March 31, 1997, the Corporation's Tier I
capital represented 14.40% of risk weighted assets and total qualifying capital
(Tier I and Tier II) represented 15.65% of risk weighted assets.  Both ratios
are well above current regulatory guidelines.
