AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position at September 30, 1995 and 1994 and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts for consistency in reporting. (2) ACQUISITION On June 3, 1994, the Company acquired from the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC) $273 million of deposits at 9 branches of Columbia Banking Federal Savings Association, Rochester, New York. These branches were acquired at a premium of $24.9 million. (3) SECURITIES On July 1, 1994, U.S. Government agency securities with an amortized cost of $369 million and an unrealized loss of $25.7 million were transferred from available for sale to held to maturity. On August 31, 1994, collateralized mortgage obligations with an amortized cost of $968 million and an unrealized loss of $45.9 million were transferred from available for sale to held to maturity. The unrealized loss shall continue to be reported in shareholders' equity but shall be amortized over the remaining life of the security as an adjustment to yield using the interest method. The amortization of the unrealized loss reported in equity will offset the effect on interest income of the amortization of the discount. (4) LOANS The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement 114 Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan as amended by Statement 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income and Disclosure. These statements prescribe recognition criteria for loan impairment, generally related to commercial type loans, and measurement methods for certain impaired loans and all loans whose terms are modified in troubled debt restructuring subsequent to the adoption of these statements. A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that the borrower will be unable to repay the loan according to the original contractual terms of the loan agreement. As of January 1, 1995, the Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 114 and SFAS No. 118 and has provided the required disclosures. The effect of adoption was not material to the consolidated financial statements. As of January 1, 1995, all of the Company's in substance foreclosed assets were reclassified into impaired loan status as required by SFAS No. 114. For all prior periods presented, all amounts related to in substance foreclosures have also been reclassified. These reclassifications did not impact the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations. As a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 114, the allowance for possible loan losses related to impaired loans that are identified for evaluation in accordance with SFAS No. 114 is based on the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan's initial effective interest rate, except that as a practical expedient, impairment may be measured at the loan's observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral for certain loans where 7 repayment of the loan is expected to be provided solely by the underlying collateral (collateral dependent loans). The Company's impaired loans are generally collateral dependent. The Company considers estimated costs to sell, on a discounted basis, when determining the fair value of collateral in the measurement of impairment of those costs are expected to reduce the cash flows available to repay or otherwise satisfy the loans. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 114 and 118, the allowance for possible loan losses related to these loans was based on estimated undiscounted cash flows or the fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell for collateral dependent loans. Other real estate owned included both formally foreclosed and in-substance foreclosed real properties. In accordance with SFAS No. 114, a loan is classified as an in-substance foreclosure when the Company has taken possession of the collateral regardless of whether formal foreclosure proceedings have taken place. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 114 and SFAS No. 118, in-substance foreclosed properties included those properties where the borrower had little or no remaining equity in the property considering its fair value remaining equity; where repayment was only expected to come from the operation or sale of the property; and where the borrower had effectively abandoned control of the property or it was doubtful that the borrower would be able to rebuild equity in the property. At September 30, 1995, the recorded investment in loans that are considered to be impaired under SFAS No. 114 totaled $8.2 million. Included in this amount is $6.0 million of impaired loans for which the related allowance for credit losses is $2.2 million. In addition, included in the total impaired loans at September 30, 1995 is $2.2 million of impaired loans that as a result of the adequacy of collateral values do not have an allowance for credit losses determined in accordance with SFAS No. 114. The average recorded investments in impaired loans during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 was approximately $10.1 million. Impaired loans are included in non-performing loans, generally as non-accrual loans. Commercial type loans past due greater than 90 days and still accruing are generally not considered to be impaired as the Company expects to collect all amounts due, including interest accrued at the contractual interest rate for the delinquent period. Restructured loans amounting to $2.7 million were restructured prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 114, and are therefore not considered impaired. For the nine months ended September 30, 1995 the Company recognized interest income on those impaired loans of $182 thousand which included $182 thousand of interest income recognized using the cash basis method of income recognition. Potential problem loans at September 30, 1995 amounted to $24.0 million. "Potential problem loans" are defined as loans which are not included with past due and non-accrual loans discussed above, but about which management, through normal internal credit review procedures, has information about possible credit problems which may result in the borrowers inability to comply with the present loan repayment terms. Of the $24.0 million in potential problem loans, none are considered impaired under SFAS No. 114. There have been no loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful, or substandard that are not included above or which caused management to have serious doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with repayment terms. In addition, there were no material commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loans were classified as non-performing. (5) SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY In 1995 the Company repurchased and retired 208,700 shares of Series "B" Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock at a cost of $5.688 million and repurchased 216,300 shares of Common Stock at a cost of $6.376 million. The Company intends to continue to acquire, as market conditions permit, both preferred and common stock up to the limit of 5% of fully diluted shares which was announced during the first quarter of 1995. Primary earnings per share are based upon the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding, after provision for dividends on preferred shares. The average number of shares used to compute primary earnings per share was 14,173,117 and 14,209,641 for the three months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively; and 14,196,745 and 14,207,552 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. 8 Fully diluted earnings per share are based upon the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding and the assumed conversion of the preferred shares. The average number of shares used to compute fully diluted earnings per share was 16,275,970 and 16,403,955 for the three months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively; and 16,385,824 and 16,401,867 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. 9 ONBANCorp, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations OVERVIEW ONBANCorp, Inc.'s ("ONBANCorp" or "the Company") results of operations are dependent upon the results of operations of its wholly owned subsidiary banks: OnBank & Trust Co., Franklin First Savings Bank and OnBank ("the Banks"). On June 3, 1994 the Company purchased nine branches with $273 millon in deposits of Columbia Banking Federal Savings Association of Rochester, New York from the RTC. Third quarter net income was $12.7 million compared to $14.9 million for the 1994 third quarter and first nine months net income was $32.7 million compared to $41.1 million for the prior year period. Fully diluted net income per common share was $.78 compared to $.91 for the 1994 third quarter and 1995 first nine months fully diluted net income per common share $2.00 compared to $2.51 prior year period. Book value per common share increased to $22.83 at September 30, 1995 from $20.82 at December 31, 1994 and from $21.80 at September 30, 1994. A regular dividend of $.28 per common share was declared for the third quarter of 1995 and paid on October 2, 1995. Regular dividends of $.84 per common share have been declared and paid during the first nine months of 1995. Return on average equity (ROE) was 13.1% and 11.6% for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 compared to 15.7% and 13.7% for the respective prior year periods. Return on Average Assets (ROA) was .78% and .69% for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 compared to .89% and .88% for the respective prior year periods. Net Interest Income The operating results of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 have been significantly influenced by the balance sheet repositioning activity which the Company undertook late in 1994. The net effect of the activity was to reduce the duration and the absolute size of the available-for-sale portfolio and to pay down existing short-term borrowings to reduce interest rate risk which had been created by the rapidly rising interest rates in 1994. The Company's one-year interest rate sensitivity is about 97% in balance at September 30, 1995 when measured on a duration basis. The Company is smaller at September 30, 1995 than it was at either September, 30 or December 31, 1994 and less sensitive to rapid increases in interest rates than it was during the fourth quarter of 1994. Net interest income was $38.8 million and $113.8 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 down from the $42.6 million and $124.6 million recorded in the respective prior year periods. Average loans of $2.089 billion for the first nine months of 1995 were $297 million or 17% improved over the first nine months of 1994 as a result of the Company's continuing focus on expanding its loan generation. The yield on these average loans also improved by .27% to 8.67% for the first nine months of 1995 compared to the 8.40% for the prior year period. The volume of average mortgage-backed securities for the first nine months of 1995 declined to $3.106 billion or by $174 million compared to the prior year period. The yield on these mortgage-backed securities increased by .93% to 6.48% as a combined result of the reinvestment of part of the proceeds from the sale of securities during the fourth quarter 1994 repositioning and the scheduled repricing of certain adjustable-rate mortgage-backed securities which the Company had acquired prior to year-end 1994. Other securities 1995 first nine month average balances declined by $70 million to $791 million and the yield increased by .76 to 5.78% compared to the 1994 first nine months. Average loans increased by more than the decrease in average mortgage-backed securities and other securities, therefore, average interest earning assets of $6.025 billion were $57 million more for the first nine months of 1995 than for the first nine months of 1994. The yield on total earning assets increased by .83% to 7.15% for the nine months of 1995 compared to the first nine months of 1994. The Company intends to continue its efforts to increase its core lending business as a percentage of overall earning assets. 10 The average balance of savings deposits increased by $140 million to $816 million for the first nine months of 1995 compared to the prior year period. The cost of these deposits also increased by .28% to 2.84% for the first nine months of 1995 compared to the prior year period. Average time deposits increased $527 million to $2.136 billion for the first nine months of 1995 compared to the first nine months of 1994. The costs of these deposits also increased by 1.29% to 5.53% for the first nine months ended September 30, 1995. The increase in time deposits was the result of increases in municipal and retail brokered certificates of deposit being greater than the decrease in retail consumer certificates of deposit. The increase in cost of time deposits was directly related to the increases in market interest rates which occurred on a continuing basis during 1994. Average interest bearing transaction accounts (Money market, NOW and excrow deposits) decreased $231 million to $560 million and the cost increased .11% to 2.41% when comparing the first nine months of 1995 to the first nine months of 1994. The decrease in these accounts is mainly attributable to higher market interest rates during the second half of 1994 and the associated consumer preferecnce for higher yielding certificates of deposit, as well as, alternative investments such as stocks and bonds. Average total interest bearing deposits increased by $436 million or 14% to $3.512 billion for the first nine months of 1995 compared to the first nine months of 1994. Increases in municipal deposits, brokered deposits and the effect of the Rochester area branches acquired in June, 1994 were the major factors affecting the increase in interest bearing deposits. Total average borrowings (including repurchase agreements) of $2.097 billion for the first nine months of 1995 are $346 million or 14% less than the $2.443 billion for the first nine months of 1994. Rising interest rates during 1994 also affected the costs of the borrowings with repurchase agreements increasing by 1.99% to 5.97% and other borrowings increasing .95% to 5.85% when comparing the first nine months of 1995 to the first nine months of 1994. The Company has extended the average maturity of its new borrowings during the first nine months of 1995 with more than $1.2 billion being extended to approximately two years maturity. The essentially flat slope of the yield curve provides the opportunity for extending liabilities and thereby helping to protect against rising interest rates, however, the offset is that the Company's net interest income will not benefit as much from declining interest rates. The increase in average deposits was greater than the decrease in average borrowings when comparing the first nine months of 1995 to the first nine months of 1994. As a result of rising interest rates during 1994, the cost of total interest bearing liabilities increased by 1.15% to 4.97% for the first nine months of 1995 compared to the first nine months of 1994. Interest rates rose dramatically during 1994 and the full impact was not realized until the first nine months of 1995 because of the time lag in the repricing of various assets and liabilities. The effect of the increases in cost of 1.15% being .32% greater than the .83% increase in the yield resulted in the net interest spread declining from 2.50% to 2.18% for the first nine months of 1995 compared to the first nine months of 1994. The effects of average interest bearing liabilities increasing by more than interest earning assets was partially offset by the increase in non-interest bearing liabilities for the first nine months of 1995 compared to the first nine months of 1994, however, the net interest margin, which is affected by the relative average balances of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, declined by .27% to 2.52% for the first nine months of 1995 compared to the first nine months of 1994. The Federal Reserve increased interest rates on seven separate occasions between the first quarter of 1994 and the first quarter of 1995, one of the most dramatic inceases in recent history. Many of the adjustable-rate mortgage-backed securities and loans held by the Banks reached their annual caps during this rapid increase in rates and potential yield increases were limited over this time period and theoretically over the next several years if rates continued to rapidly rise. During periods of unusually rapidly rising rates the contracual annual caps can have a limiting effect on annual yield increases and on the market value of the loans and securities. Market rate borrowings are not limited by the same type of caps and will generally increase in tandem with increasing market rates of interest. Consumer deposit costs are administered by the Banks and historically have lagged market rates of interest during periods of rising rates. Therefore, a continuation of increasing interest rates could have a compressing effect on the Bank's net interest margins over time. The actions take by the Banks during the fourth quarter of 1994 and the first nine months of 1995 to reposition a significant portion of the available-for-sale securities portfolio, to reduce the volume of financing transactions and to selectively lengthen borrowings have lessened the Banks' interest rate sensitivity, not eliminated it. As interest rates rose during 1994 the mix of residential real estate loans also changed so that approximately 37% of these loans were adjustable rate. The higher yields of fixed rate loans with inherent prepayment risk in a declining interest rate scenario made these loans more acceptable to retain in portfolio. Given 11 the fact that interest rates have declined since December 31, 1994, the Banks have again begun selling fixed rate real estate loan production to limit interest rate risk. Loans available for sale, consisting relatively equal balances of education loans and fixed rate mortgage loans, were $43 million at September 30, 1995. The Banks continually monitor their overall interest rate risk profiles and, based upon that profile and market conditions, the Banks determine whether or not to sell loan production with the ultimate objective being to minimize interest rate risk and to increase net income and, therefore, increase shareholder value. This table sets forth for the nine months ended September 30, the average daily balances of the Company's major asset and liability items and the interest earned or paid thereon expressed in dollars and weighted average rates. =================================================================================================================================== 1995 1994 (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) AVERAGE YIELD AVERAGE YIELD BALANCE INTEREST RATE BALANCE INTEREST RATE - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INTEREST EARNING ASSETS(1) Loans 2,089,412 135,507 8.67% 1,791,931 112,525 8.40% Mortgage-backed securities 3,105,799 150,509 6.48% 3,279,532 136,191 5.55% Other Securities 790,798 34,183 5.78% 860,556 32,299 5.02% Federal funds sold and other 39,107 1,892 6.47% 35,836 1,115 4.16% - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total interest earning assets 6,025,116 322,091 7.15% 5,967,855 282,130 6.32% Non-interest earning assets 325,438 293,222 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total assets $6,350,554 6,261,077 =================================================================================================================================== INTEREST BEARING LIABILITIES Savings deposits 816,324 17,354 2.84% 676,095 12,939 6.32% Time deposits 2,135,704 88,281 5.53% 1,609,088 51,058 4.24% Money market accounts, NOW acounts, and escrow deposits 560,318 10,114 2.41% 790,865 13,632 2.30% - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Deposits 3,512,346 115,749 4.41% 3,076,048 77,629 3.37% Repurchase agreements 901,011 40,248 5.97% 1,407,550 41,936 3.98% Other borrowings 1,196,067 52,318 5.85% 1,035,591 37,959 4.90% - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total interest bearing liabilities 5,609,424 208,315 4.97% 5,519,189 157,524 3.82% Non-interest bearing deposits 296,354 285,415 Non-interest bearing liabilities 66,654 54,307 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total liabilities 5,972,432 5,858,911 Shareholders' equity 378,122 402,166 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total liabilities and shareholders' equity $6,350,554 6,261,077 Net interest income $ 113,776 124,606 =================================================================================================================================== Interest rate spread 2.18% 2.50% Net interest margin(2) 2.52% 2.79% Total interest earning assets to total interest bearing liabilities 1.07X 1.08X Average equity to average assets 5.95% 6.42% =================================================================================================================================== (1) Nonaccruing loans, which are immaterial, have been included in interest earning assets.

Management's evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance takes into consideration the Company's past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations which may affect the borrower's ability to repay, overall portfolio quality, and current and prospective economic conditions. Non-performing loans plus other real estate owned represented .49% of total assets at September 30, 1995. The Company's provision for loan losses of $1.6 million and $5.0 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 were slightly more than the $1.5 million and less than the $6.1 million recorded in the respective prior year periods. These provisions reflect both the increase in overall lending which has occurred in 1995 and the continuing decrease in non-performing loans to $27.4 million at September 30, 1995 from $29.8 million at December 31, 1994 and a year-end high of $39.4 million at December 31, 1992. The coverage ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans increased from 113% at year-end 1994 to 128% at September 30, 1995. The allowance as a percent of gross loans was 1.58% at September 30, 1995. The ratio of delinquent loans as a percentage of gross loans was 1.2% at September 30, 1995. Loan quality remains strong at ONBANCorp. 13 The following table sets forth the activity in the allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated: SEPTEMBER 30, -----------------------DECEMBER 31,------------------------- (Dollars in Thousands) 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990 -

Mortgage banking income decreased by $2.4 million and $2.1 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 compared to the respective prior year periods. The Company recognized a $2.7 million gain on the sale of servicing during the third quarter of 1994. Absent this nonrecurring gain the mortgage banking income increased in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 compared to the respective prior year periods. The volume of loans serviced for others has decreased from $1.253 billion at September 30, 1994 to $1.147 billion at September 30, 1995. Service charges increased $.2 million or 5.8% and $.7 million or 6.4% for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 compared to the respective prior year periods. Increasing volumes of commercial banking business and the associated fees are primarily responsible for these increases. The Company intends to continue to emphasize the growth of "core" commercial banking in the form of deposit growth and electronic fee generated business. For example, OnBank & Trust Co. recently won the bid to be the sole provider of ATM's at almost all (26) New York State Thruway Service Areas. This type of activity will provide additional fee income. Gains on the sale of securities were $.7 million less and $2.2 million greater in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 compared to the respective prior year periods. These gains generally reflect improvements in value in the trading account and sale of selected available-for-sale securities. OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES Other operating expenses decreased $2.3 million and increased $3.4 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 compared to the respective prior year periods. A reduction of FDIC insurance premiums of $1.3 million for the third quarter of 1995 along with approximately $1.0 million of other operating efficiencies related primarily to systems consolidations accounted for the $2.3 million decrease. The FDIC assessment reduction and a portion of the other reductions are expected to continue. The $3.4 million increase on a year to year basis is primarily related to the acquisition of nine branches in the Rochester market area in June of 1994. Incremental goodwill amortization of $1.5 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 1995 compared to the prior year period and the additional costs of operating the branches account for the majority of the increase. The increased volume of banking activity and the associated expenses also influenced the increase in the year over year operating expenses, however, when compared to almost any peer group the Company's expenses to average assets ratio of 1.61% for the first nine months and 1.48% for the third quarter of 1995 is favorable. Congress currently has proposed legislation to recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund. If enacted in its current form, the Banks' one-time FDIC assessment would be approximately $10 million. DIVIDENDS Payments of dividends by ONBANCorp on its common and preferred stock is subject to various regulatory and tax restrictions. During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 the Company declared dividends of $.28 and $.84 respectively, per common share amounting to $3.9 million and $11.8 million, respectively. For the same periods the Company declared dividends of $.42 and $1.27 respectively, per preferred share amounting to $1.1 and $3.5 million, respectively. These dividends were paid in April, July and October of 1995 to appropriate shareholders of record. LIQUIDITY ONBANCorp's liquidity should be sufficient to meet normal transaction requirements and flexible enough to take advantage of market opportunities and to react to other liquidity needs. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased to $71 million for the first nine months of 1995 from $150 million for the prior year period. 16 Investing activities provided $71 million primarily from sales of securities available for sale. The major use of financing activity funds was to reduce various types of borrowings with total uses of cash from financing activities totaling $156 million. Cash and cash equivalents of $160 million at September 30, 1995 were $16 million greater than at September 30 , 1994. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY The capital to asset ratio was 5.8% on September 30, 1995 as measured by shareholders' equity of $382 million and assets of $6.545 billion. ONBANCorp's capital ratios exceed all regulatory requirements including the total risk adjust capital ratio of 14.4% which is almost double the regulatory requirements of 8.0%. 17 PART II.
