These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of BancFlorida Financial Corporation Employee Thrift Plan at September 30, 1993 and 1992, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for each of the years in the three-year period ended September 30, 1993, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of reportable transactions and assets held for investment are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Assets of the Plan are valued at current market value. (a) Investment in Securities All investments in securities are comprised of BancFlorida Financial Corporation (BFL or BancFlorida) common stock which is traded on a national securities exchange. The shares are valued at average cost in determining the cost of securities sold and reported at market value at September 30, 1993 and 1992. (b) Expenses All expenses are paid by the Plan. (2) Description of Plan The following is a general description of the Plan and provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions. (a) General The Plan which was effective July 1, 1983, is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all full-time employees of BFL and its subsidiaries which have adopted the plan who have one year of service. It is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). (b) Contributions An employee becomes a participant by electing to contribute a minimum of 2% to a maximum of 5% of gross pay on a pre-tax basis to the Plan. Each year, BFL has the option to contribute an amount not in excess of the amount of contributions by each of its participating employees, but in no event greater than 5% of each such individual employee's compensation for the Plan year. (c) Participant Accounts Effective October 1, 1985, the Plan was amended to allow participants to invest in one or both of the following funds: (bullet) Short-Term Fund - interest-bearing, short-term investments (bullet) Common Stock Fund - common stock of BancFlorida Financial Corporation (Continued) 2 BANCFLORIDA FINANCIAL CORPORATION EMPLOYEE THRIFT PLAN Notes to Financial Statements Effective October 1, 1990, the Plan was amended to allow the employer matching contribution to be invested in the same proportion as the employees allocate their contribution. Effective April 1, 1992, the Plan was amended to allow participants to invest in one or both of the following additional funds: (bullet) Growth/Value Fund (bullet) Intermediate Bond Fund Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution and an allocation of (a) the Company's contribution, (b) plan earnings, and (c) forfeitures of terminated participants' nonvested accounts. Allocations are based on participant contributions or account balances, as defined. At September 30, 1993, there were 440 participants in the Plan. Employee contributions invested in the Short-Term Fund and Common Stock Fund earned an average rate of return or (declined) approximately 3% and 145%, respectively, for the year ended September 30, 1993; approximately 5% and 173%, respectively, for the year ended September 30, 1992; and approximately 7% and (22)%, respectively, for the year ended September 30, 1991. Employee contributions invested in the Growth/Value Fund and the Intermediate Bond Fund earned a rate of return of approximately 15% and 11%, respectively, for the year ended September 30, 1993; and approximately 2% and 3%, respectively, for the year ended September 30, 1992. (d) Vesting Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the remainder of their accounts is based on years of service. A participant is 100% vested after five years of credited service. Aggregate forfeitures amount to 1,402 and 1,214 shares of BancFlorida Financial Corporation common stock for the years ended September 30, 1993 and 1992, respectively. (e) Payment of Benefits On termination of service, a participant may elect to receive a lump- sum distribution equal to the vested value of their account or if the participant's vested interest is more than $3,700, the participant may elect to receive the lump-sum distribution at the end of the Plan year following their sixty-fifth birthday. In the event a participant dies prior to commencement of their distribution, their vested interest will be distributed to their beneficiary. A participant may withdraw an amount not in excess of their account balance derived from their contributions at any time on one month's notice solely for the purpose of (i) making a down payment on a principal residence, (ii) paying college expenses for their family member, or (iii) paying unreimbursed medical or dental expenses. The Administrator determines whether to allow such financial hardship withdrawals on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis. (Continued) 3 BANCFLORIDA FINANCIAL CORPORATION EMPLOYEE THRIFT PLAN Notes to Financial Statements (f) Trustee Thrift Plan assets are held in a trust and are invested by the trustee, National Bank of Detroit, Trust Division. (g) Termination Provision BancFlorida expects to continue this Plan indefinitely, but is not contractually obligated to do so. Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, BancFlorida has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts, and any unallocated funds will be allocated among all participants on the same basis as BancFlorida contributions. (h) Reclassifications Certain amounts in the 1992 and 1991 financial statements have been reclassified so as to conform to the 1993 presentation. (3) Income Tax Status BancFlorida Financial Corporation Employee Thrift Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service substantiating that the Plan qualifies under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and the trust is exempt under Section 501(a); as such, the Plan is exempt from federal income tax, and amounts contributed by BancFlorida, F.S.B., a wholly-owned subsidiary of BFL, are not taxed to the employee until a distribution from the Plan is received. (4) Short-Term Investments The fair value of the short-term investments which are held in trust and which are administered by the trustee are as follows: Fair Value Investment account 1993 1992 Cash $ 484 -- NBD Short-Term Investment Fund for Employee Benefit Plans 1,074,731 1,188,204 Woodward Growth/Value Fund 527,865 32,059 Woodward Intermediate Bond Fund 225,198 14,474 $ 1,828,278 1,234,737 (Continued) 4 BANC FLORIDA FINANCIAL CORPORATION EMPLOYEE THRIFT PLAN Notes to Financial Statements (5) Transfer from Related Trust During 1993, participants of the Plan who also participate in another benefit trust of BFL were allowed to transfer plan assets from the related trust to the Plan. The plan assets of the related trust were transferred to the Plan at their fair value at the date of transfer. (6) Reconciliation to IRS Form 5500 The following represents a reconciliation of net assets as reported on IRS Form 5500 to that presented in the accompanying financial statements: 1993 1992 Net assets per IRS Form 5500 $ 5,772,407 2,889,400 Benefits payable -- 158,537 Net assets per accompanying financial statements $ 5,772,407 3,047,937 As mentioned in note 2(h), during 1993, the Plan has classified benefits payable to individuals separated from service as a component of net assets available for plan benefits. Consequently, corresponding amounts in the previously issued 1992 and 1991 financial statements have been reclassified so to conform with current year presentations. (7) Subsequent Event On January 17, 1994, BFL entered into an agreement and plan of merger with First Union Corporation. The agreement and plan of merger provides for the merger of BFL into the First Union National Bank of Florida. The effect on the Plan of this agreement and plan of merger is unknown at this time. With regulatory approval of the agreement and plan of merger, the plan assets of the Plan will be transferred to the plan assets of the First Union Savings Plan. The plan assets of the plan will be transferred at their fair value at the date of transfer. SIGNATURES The Plan.
