           UNION PLANTERS CORPORATION ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER EARNINGS
                   OF $101 MILLION, OR $.73 PER DILUTED SHARE

         Memphis, TN -- Union Planters Corporation (NYSE: UPC) announced today
first quarter net earnings of $101.3 million, or $.73 per diluted share. This
compares with last year's first quarter net earnings of $97.4 million, or $.67
per diluted share. Net earnings for the first quarter of 2000 represented
returns on average assets and average common equity of 1.23% and 14.39%,
respectively, which compares to 1.22% and 13.39%, respectively, for the same
period in 1999.

         Cash operating earnings were $114.4 million for the first quarter of
2000 compared to $102.3 million for the same quarter last year. On a diluted per
share basis, cash operating earnings for the first quarter were $.83 compared to
$.71 for the first quarter of 1999, an increase of 17%. Cash operating earnings
for the first quarter of 2000 represented returns on average assets and average
common equity of 1.38% and 16.24%, respectively, compared to 1.28% and 14.07%,
respectively, for the same period a year ago.

         Benjamin W. Rawlins, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer said,
"We are pleased with the solid first quarter performance. As anticipated, the
increase in interest rates during the quarter caused a decline in net interest
income compared to the fourth quarter of 1999. However, this decline was offset
by growth of our noninterest income and a reduction in both noninterest expenses
and the loan loss provision. Our primary focus in 2000 is growing noninterest
income and increasing loans and deposits. Efforts are ongoing to further reduce
noninterest expenses.

<PAGE>   3

We are anticipating this improvement to continue during the remainder of this
year."

         Net interest income increased 6% in the first quarter of 2000 to $314.8
million as compared to the first quarter of 1999. The net interest margin for
the first quarter was 4.34% compared to 4.22% for the first quarter last year.
The net interest margin was positively affected by the growth of average earning
assets (primarily an 8% growth in loans) which was offset by higher funding
costs. Compared to the fourth quarter of 1999, net interest income decreased 2%.

         The provision for losses on loans for the first quarter of 2000 was
$17.3 million, or .32% of average loans. This compares to $16.3 million and
$19.7 million, respectively, for the first and fourth quarters of 1999.

         At March 31, 2000 the allowance for losses on loans was $345.8 million,
or 1.59% of loans and 261% of nonperforming loans. Nonperforming assets at March
31, 2000 were $172.4 million, or .79% of loans and foreclosed properties. This
compares to $203.9 million, or 1.02% of loans and foreclosed properties at March
31, 1999, and $167.5 million, or .80% of loans and foreclosed properties, at
December 31, 1999. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were .26%
for the first quarter of 2000, a decrease from .29% and .68%, respectively, for
the first and fourth quarters of 1999.

         Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2000 was $127.6 million
compared to $126.3 million for the same quarter in 1999. The first quarter of
1999 included net gains from the securitization and sale of FHA/VA loans, the
sale of the remaining portion of the credit card portfolio, and branch and other
asset sales aggregating $9.2 million. Excluding these items, noninterest income
increased $10.1 million. The growth relates primarily to service charges on
deposit accounts, ATM

<PAGE>   4

transaction fees, and bank card income (merchant servicing). Partially
offsetting this growth was a decline in mortgage banking revenues. Noninterest
income increased 4% over the fourth quarter of 1999.

         Noninterest expenses were $271.7 million for the first quarter of 2000,
an increase of $13.5 million over the same period a year ago. Salaries and
employee benefits expense, occupancy and equipment expense, and goodwill and
other intangible amortization accounted for most of the increase. The increase
in these categories was primarily related to the Indiana Branch Purchase in
March 1999 and the Republic Banking Corporation of Florida acquisition in July
1999, both accounted for as purchases. Noninterest expenses for the first
quarter decreased $5.4 million, or 2%, compared to the fourth quarter of 1999.

         Union Planters Corporation ended the quarter with total assets of $33.4
billion, total loans of $22.2 billion, and total deposits of $23.4 billion.
Shareholders' equity was $2.7 billion and the shareholders' equity to total
assets and leverage ratios were 8.09% and 6.48%, respectively.

         Management will recommend the regular quarterly dividend on Union
Planters' common stock ($.50 per share) to the Board of Directors at their
meeting on April 21, 2000.

         The Company completed the purchase of 7.1 million shares under the
share repurchase plan announced by the Board of Directors in August 1999. On
February 17, 2000, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of an
additional 7.1 million shares. To date, 665,000 shares have been purchased.
