The allowance for loan losses is that amount believed adequate to absorb
estimated credit losses in the loan portfolio based on management's evaluation

conditions. A provision for loan losses is charged to operations based on
management's periodic evaluation of these and other pertinent factors.

The operating results of the Parent Company and Guardian Finance Company (GFC)
(All Other) are used to reconcile the segment totals to the consolidated income
statements for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 and
2000. The reconciling amounts for consolidated total assets at September 30,
2001 and 2000 consist of the elimination of intersegment borrowings, and the
assets of the Parent Company and GFC which are not eliminated.


Note 6 - NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations, and No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill and indefinite lived intangible
assets will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment
tests in accordance with the Statements. Other intangible assets will continue
to be amortized over their useful lives. The pooling-of-interests method of
accounting for business combinations is no longer permitted.

Park will apply the new rules on accounting for goodwill and other intangible
assets beginning in the first quarter of 2002. Application of the
nonamortization provisions of the Statement is expected to result in an increase
in net income of approximately $375,000 per year. During 2002, Park will perform
the first of the required impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite lived
intangible assets as of January 1, 2002 and has not yet determined what the
effect of these tests will be on the earnings and financial position of Park.

    Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Month Periods
                       Ended September 30, 2001 and 2000.


NET INTEREST INCOME

The Corporation's principal source of earnings is net interest income, the
difference between total interest income and total interest expense. Net
interest income increased by $3.3 million or 7.3% to $48.6 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2001 compared to $45.3 million for the third quarter
of 2000. The following table compares the average balance and tax equivalent
yield/cost for interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities for the
third quarter of 2001 with the same quarter in 2000.

Average interest earning assets increased by $126 million or 3.2% for the
quarter ended September 30, 2001 compared to the same quarter in 2000. Average
loan totals decreased by $35 million or 1.2% for the third quarter of 2001
compared to the third quarter of 2000. The


                                      -14-


demand for commercial, commercial real estate, and consumer loans and leases
secured by automobiles decreased sharply during the first three quarters of 2001
compared to the same period in 2000. Total loans have decreased by $92 million
or 3.1% to $2,864 million at September 30, 2001 compared to $2,956 million at
December 31, 2000. In response to the weak loan demand, management has purchased
additional investment securities during the first three quarters of 2001. Total
investment securities have increased by $363 million or 38% to $1,319 million at
September 30, 2001 compared to $956 million at December 31, 2000. Loan demand is
expected to continue to be weak during the fourth quarter of 2001.

The average yield on the loan portfolio was 8.48% for the third quarter of 2001
compared to 9.02% for the third quarter of 2000. The average prime lending rate
for Park's affiliate banks was 6.57% for the third quarter of 2001 compared to
9.50% for the same period in 2000. The Federal Reserve decreased the federal
funds rate by 3.50% during the first three quarters of 2001. Park's prime
lending rate was decreased by the same magnitude over the same period.
Approximately 25% of Park's loan portfolio reprices based on the prime lending
rate. The yield on the loan portfolio is expected to continue to decrease over
the remainder of the year as variable rate loans reprice lower and new loan
originations have an average rate that is lower than the current loan portfolio
rate.

Average investment securities including federal funds sold increased by $161
million or 15.7% to $1,186 million for the third quarter of 2001 compared to the
same quarter in 2000. The yield on taxable investment securities was 6.51% for
the third quarter of 2001 compared to 6.56% for the same period in 2000. The
yield on tax exempt securities was 6.92% in 2001 compared to 7.09% in 2000. The
average maturity or repricing of the investment portfolio was approximately 3.0
years at September 30, 2001 compared to 5.1 years at September 30, 2000.

Average interest bearing liabilities increased by $103 million or 3.2% to $3,361
million for the quarter ended September 30, 2001 compared to the same quarter in
2000. Average interest bearing deposits increased by $68 million or 2.5% to
$2,737 million in 2001 compared to 2000. Average total borrowings increased by
$35 million or 5.9% to $624 million in 2001 compared to 2000.

The average cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased by .77% to 3.70% in
2001 compared to 4.47% in 2000. The average cost of interest bearing deposits
decreased by .50% to 3.72% in 2001 compared to 4.22% in 2000. The cost of
short-term borrowings decreased by 2.96% to 2.53% in 2001 compared to 5.49% in
2000, consistent with the decrease in the federal funds rate in 2001. The cost
of long-term debt also decreased to 4.44% in 2001 compared to 5.77% in 2000. The
cost of Park's interest bearing liabilities is expected to continue to decrease
during the remainder of the year as the cost of new certificates of deposit is
lower than the portfolio rate.

The increase in net interest income of $3.3 million or 7.3% to $48.6 million for
the quarter ended September 30, 2001 was primarily due to an increase in the net
interest spread (the difference between the yield on interest earning assets and
the cost of interest bearing liabilities) of .28% to 4.21% in 2001 compared to
3.93% in 2000. The tax equivalent net interest margin (defined as net interest
income divided by average interest earning assets) increased by .15% to 4.85%
for the third quarter of 2001 compared to 4.70% in 2000.

Net interest income increased by $6.2 million or 4.6% to $140.9 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to $134.7 million for the same
period in 2000. The following table compares the average balance and tax
equivalent yield/cost for interest earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities for the first nine months of 2001 with the same period in 2000.

Average interest earning assets increased by $86 million or 2.2% to $3,967
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to the same period
in 2000. Average loans increased by $50 million or 1.7% to $2,899 million for
the first three quarters of 2001 compared to the same period in 2000. The yield
on loans was 8.79% for the first three quarters of 2001 compared to 8.91% for
the first three quarters of 2000.

Average investment securities including federal funds sold increased by $36
million or 3.5% to $1,068 million for the first three quarters of 2001 compared
to the same period in 2000. The yield on taxable investment securities was 6.63%
for the first three quarters of 2001 compared to 6.64% for the same period in
2000.

Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $61 million or 1.9% to $3,279
million for the first three quarters of 2001 compared to the same period in
2000. Average interest bearing deposits increased by $54 million or 2.0% to
$2,722 million for the first three quarters of 2001 compared to the same period
in 2000. Average total borrowings were $557 million at an average cost of 4.12%
for the first three quarters of 2001 compared to average total borrowings of
$549 million at an average cost of 5.39% for the first three quarters of 2000.

The average cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased by .23% to 4.06% in
2001 compared to 4.29% in 2000. The average cost of interest bearing deposits
decreased by .01% to 4.05% in 2001 compared to 4.06% in 2000. The cost of Park's
interest bearing liabilities is expected to decrease over the remainder of the
year as the cost of new certificates of deposit is lower than the current
portfolio rate.


                                      -16-



The increase in net interest income of $6.2 million or 4.6% to $140.9 million
for the first three quarters of 2001 was primarily due to the increase in the
net interest spread. The net interest spread (the difference between the yield
on interest earning assets and the cost of interest bearing liabilities)
increased by .13% to 4.16% in 2001 compared to 4.03% in 2000. The tax equivalent
net interest margin (defined as net interest income divided by average interest
earning assets) increased by .10% to 4.86% for 2001 compared to 4.76% in 2000.


PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The provision for loan losses was $3.0 million and $7.6 million, respectively,
for the third quarter and first nine months of 2001 compared to $2.5 million and
$6.9 million for the same periods in 2000. Net charge-offs were $2.4 million and
$4.7 million, respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended September
30, 2001 compared to $1.6 million and $4.3 million for the same periods in 2000.
Nonperforming loans defined as loans that are 90 days past due, renegotiated
loans, and nonaccrual loans were $26.1 million or .91% of loans at September 30,
2001 compared to $20.7 million or .70% of loans at December 31, 2000 and $14.3
million or .49% of loans at September 30, 2000. The reserve for loan losses as a
percentage of outstanding loans was 2.11% at September 30, 2001 compared to
1.94% at December 31, 2000 and 1.86% at September 30, 2000. See Note 3 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the factors
considered by management in determining the provision for loan losses.


NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income increased by $1.8 million or 19.4% to $11.1 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2001 and increased by $4.4 million or 15.6% to
$32.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to the same
periods in 2000. The following is a summary of the change in noninterest income.

- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The increase in fee income from fiduciary activities, for both periods, was due
to an increase in assets under management for new trust department customers.
The increase in service charges on deposit accounts, for both periods, was due
to both an increase in the number of transaction


                                      -17-



accounts and to increases in various deposit fees. The large increase in fees
earned from other service income, for both periods, was primarily due to an
increase in the fee income earned from the origination and sale into the
secondary market of fixed rate mortgage loans due to lower interest rates. This
strong volume is expected to continue during the fourth quarter. The increase in
other income, for both periods, was primarily due to increases in fee income
from check card and ATM transactions.


GAIN ON SALE OF SECURITIES

There was a gain on sale of securities of $142,000 for the first six months of
2001 due to the sale of United States Treasury notes with the proceeds
reinvested in Agency mortgage-backed securities. These Agency mortgage-backed
securities yield 1.70% more than the give-up yield on the Treasury notes. During
the third quarter of 2001, $72 million of thirty year mortgage-backed securities
were sold at a loss of $8,000. The proceeds from the sale were reinvested in
Agency collateralized mortgage-backed securities with an average life of
approximately three years and a yield of 6.25%.


OTHER EXPENSE

Total other expense increased by $1.8 million or 6.9% to $27.7 million for the
quarter ended September 30, 2001 and increased by $3.6 million or 4.6% to $81.4
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to the same
periods in 2000.

Salaries and employee benefits expense increased by $1.2 million or 8.7% to
$14.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2001 and increased by $2.6
million or 6.4% to $43.6 million for the first nine months of 2001 compared to
the same periods in 2000. Full time equivalent employees were 1,553 at September
30, 2001 compared to 1,531 at September 30, 2000.


FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

Federal income tax expense was $8.7 million and $25.0 million, respectively, for
the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 compared to $7.7
million and $22.9 million for the same periods in 2000. The ratio of federal
income tax expense to income before taxes was 29.9% for the three months ended
September 30, 2001 and 29.6% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2001
compared to approximately 29.3% for the same periods in 2000. The statutory rate
was 35% for both 2001 and 2000. The difference between the effective federal
income tax rate and the statutory rate is primarily due to tax-exempt interest
income and low income housing tax credits.


NET INCOME

Net income increased by $1.9 million or 10.3% to $20.35 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2001 compared to $18.45 million for the same period
in 2000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, net income increased by
$4.3 million or 7.8% to $59.6


                                      -18-



million compared to $55.3 million for the same period in 2000. The annualized,
net income to average assets ratios (ROA) were 1.87% and 1.89%, respectively,
for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 compared to 1.76%
and 1.79% for the same periods in 2000. The annualized, net income to average
equity ratios (ROE) were 17.56% and 17.71%, respectively, for the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 2001 compared to 17.60% and 18.12% for the
same periods in 2000.

Diluted earnings per share increased by 11.5% to $1.45 for the third quarter of
2001 compared to $1.30 for the same quarter in 2000 and increased by 9.3% to
$4.24 for the first three quarters of 2001 compared to $3.88 for the same period
in 2000.

                   AT SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 AND DECEMBER 31, 2000


CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Total assets increased by $232 million or 5.5% to $4,437 million at September
30, 2001 compared to $4,205 million at December 31, 2000. Total loans decreased
by $92 million or 3.1% to $2,864 million as demand for commercial loans,
commercial real estate loans, and consumer loans and leases secured by
automobiles was weak during the first nine months of 2001. Due to the large drop
in interest rates during 2001, fixed rate mortgage loan volume increased.
However, the fixed rate mortgage loans are sold in the secondary market and as a
result do not increase the loan portfolio, but the related fee income does
increase other service income. The loan portfolio is expected to decrease during
the fourth quarter as loan demand continues to be weak. Investment securities
increased by $363 million or 38.0% to $1,319 million at September 30, 2001
compared to $956 million at December 31, 2000. Management increased the amount
of investment securities purchased during 2001 in response to the weak loan
demand.

Total liabilities increased by $195 million or 5.2% to $3,958 million at
September 30, 2001 compared to $3,763 million at December 31, 2000. Total
borrowed money increased by $124 million or 21.9% to $690 million at September
30, 2001 compared to $566 million at December 31, 2000. Total deposits increased
by $67 million or 2.1% to $3,219 million at September 30, 2001 compared to
$3,152 million at year-end 2000.

Effective liquidity management ensures that the cash flow requirements of
depositors and borrowers, as well as the operating cash needs of the
Corporation, are met.

Funds are available from a number of sources, including the securities
portfolio, the core deposit base, Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, and the
capability to securitize or package loans for sale. The Corporation's loan to
asset ratio was 64.6% at September 30, 2001 compared to 70.3% at December 31,
2000 and 69.9% at September 30, 2000. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $136
million at September 30, 2001 compared to $170 million at December 31, 2000 and
$150 million at September 30, 2000. The present funding sources provide more
than adequate liquidity for the Corporation to meet its cash flow needs.


CAPITAL RESOURCES

Stockholders' equity at September 30, 2001 was $479 million or 10.80% of total
assets compared to $443 million or 10.53% of total assets at December 31, 2000
and $430 million or 10.23% of total assets at September 30, 2000.


                                      -20-




Financial institution regulators have established guidelines for minimum capital
ratios for banks, thrifts, and bank holding companies. The net unrealized gain
or loss on available-for-sale securities is generally not included in computing
regulatory capital. The minimum leverage capital ratio (defined as stockholders'
equity less intangible assets divided by tangible assets) is 4% and the well
capitalized ratio is greater than or equal to 5%. Park's leverage ratio was
10.09% at September 30, 2001 and 9.90% at December 31, 2000. The minimum Tier I
risk-based capital ratio (defined as leverage capital divided by risk-adjusted
assets) is 4% and the well capitalized ratio is greater than or equal to 6%.
Park's Tier I risk-based capital ratio was 14.76% at September 30, 2001 and
15.00% at December 31, 2000. The minimum total risk-based capital ratio (defined
as leverage capital plus supplemental capital divided by risk-adjusted assets)
is 8% and the well capitalized ratio is greater than or equal to 10%. Park's
total risk-based capital ratio was 16.03% at September 30, 2001 and 16.26% at
December 31, 2000.

The financial institution subsidiaries of Park each met the well capitalized
capital ratio guidelines at September 30, 2001. The following table indicates
the capital ratios for each subsidiary and Park at September 30, 2001:

ITEM 3  -  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET
           RISK

See Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosure that
Park does not have any off-balance sheet derivative financial instruments.

Management reviews interest rate sensitivity on a quarterly basis by modeling
the financial statements under various interest rate scenarios. The primary
reason for these efforts is to guard Park from adverse impacts of unforeseen
changes in interest rates. Management continues to believe that further changes
in interest rates will have a samll impact on net income, consistent with the
disclosure on page 28 of our 2000 Annual Report.
