               UNION PLANTERS CORPORATION ANNOUNCES RECORD ANNUAL
            NET EARNINGS OF $410 MILLION, OR $2.85 PER DILUTED SHARE

         Memphis, TN -- Union Planters Corporation (NYSE: UPC) announced today
record annual net earnings for 1999 of $410.0 million, or $2.85 per diluted
share, compared to $225.6 million, or $1.58 per diluted share, a year ago.
Results for 1998 were reduced by merger-related and other significant charges.
Net earnings for 1999 represented returns on average assets and average common
equity of 1.25% and 13.80%, respectively.

         Cash operating earnings for the year were $440.3 million compared to
$351.9 million in 1998. On a diluted per share basis, cash operating earnings
for the year were $3.06 compared to $2.47 in the prior year, or an increase of
24%. Cash operating earnings represented returns on average assets and average
common equity of 1.34% and 14.83%, respectively.

         For the fourth quarter of 1999, net earnings were $97.4 million
compared to $27.6 million for the fourth quarter of 1998. On a diluted per share
basis, net earnings were $.69 compared to $.19 a year ago.

         The 1999 results include the following acquisitions from their
respective dates of acquisition:

         -        January 31, 1999 - First Mutual Bancorp, Inc., the parent of
                  First Mutual Bank, S.B., in Decatur, Illinois with total
                  assets of $403 million;

         -        February 1, 1999 - First and Farmers Bancshares, Inc., the
                  parent company of First & Farmers Bank of Somerset in
                  Somerset, Kentucky, and Bank of Cumberland in Burkesville,
                  Kentucky, with combined total assets of $335 million;

<PAGE>   3

         -        March 5, 1999 - the purchase of $850 million in loans, 56
                  branch locations, and the assumption of $1.7 billion of
                  deposits from First Chicago NBD Corporation in Indiana; and

         -        July 16, 1999 - Republic Banking Corporation of Florida, the
                  parent company of Republic National Bank of Miami, in Miami,
                  Florida, with $1.4 billion in total assets.

         Benjamin W. Rawlins, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer said.
"We are pleased with the progress made in 1999 and to be able to report record
earnings for the year. Our organization was challenged as we completed all of
our planned data processing conversions for the charter consolidations and 1998
and 1999 acquisitions. We now have common systems throughout the Company. These
efforts and "Y2K" readiness occupied a significant amount of resources and
caused our expense levels to be higher than they would otherwise have been.
However, the time spent on "Y2K" paid off as we did not experience any
significant problems. We also believe our efforts to expand our markets,
consolidate operations and systems, standardize products, and train our
personnel to deliver a broader range of financial products will pay dividends
this year and over the long-term. For 2000, we are budgeting an increase in net
earnings per share of 8% to 12%. We anticipate that rising interest rates and
competition will continue to put pressure on industry spreads this year."

            Net interest income for 1999 was $1.3 billion, an increase of 4%
over the prior year. Average earning assets increased $1.4 billion in 1999 to
$29.7 billion. Loans at year end, excluding FHA/VA government insured/guaranteed
loans, were $20.9 billion, an increase of 11% from 1998. The net interest spread
increased from 3.60% to 3.69% while the net interest margin declined to 4.36%
from 4.40%, still one of the best margins among the largest bank holding
companies.

<PAGE>   4

         For the fourth quarter of 1999, net interest income was $321.0 million
compared to $293.9 million for the same period in 1998. Average earning assets
for the fourth quarter of 1999 increased $1.2 billion compared to the same
quarter in 1998. The net interest spread for the quarter was 3.75% versus 3.46%
in 1998 and the net interest margin was 4.39% compared to 4.24% for the fourth
quarter of 1998.

         The provision for losses on loans for 1999 was $74.0 million compared
to $204.1 million in 1998. For the fourth quarter, the provision for losses on
loans was $19.7 million compared to $76.6 million for the same period last year
and $20.4 million for the third quarter of 1999. The decrease year over year is
attributable primarily to the sale of the credit card portfolio in the fourth
quarter of 1998 and to lower provisions by the institutions acquired in 1998.

         Net charge-offs for the year and for the fourth quarter were $96.3
million and $36.1 million, respectively, which compares to $186.3 million and
$80.6 million for the same periods in 1998. The higher level of charge-offs in
1998 was attributable to a more aggressive policy of dealing with the problem
credits of banks acquired in 1998 and to the level of charge-offs in the credit
card portfolio.

         At December 31, 1999, the allowance for losses on loans was $342.3
million, or 1.64% of loans and 264% of nonperforming loans. Nonperforming assets
and loans 90 days or more past due at December 31, 1999 were $260.3 million, or
1.24% of loans and foreclosed properties. This compares to $231.2 million, or
1.23% of loans and foreclosed properties, at December 31, 1998 and $262.8
million, or 1.26% of loans and foreclosed properties, at September 30, 1999.

         Noninterest income for 1999 was $512.7 million compared to $568.8
million for the same period in 1998. The decline from 1998 relates primarily to
the gain on sale of the credit card portfolio in the fourth


<PAGE>   5

quarter of 1998 and to certain other unusual items. Excluding these items and
investment securities gains and losses, noninterest income increased $15.4
million. This growth is attributable primarily to service charges on deposit
accounts, mortgage banking revenues, insurance commissions, annuity sales, and
to growth from banks acquired in 1999. The growth was partially offset by a
decline in bank card fee income due to the sale of the credit card portfolio in
1998.

         For the fourth quarter of 1999, noninterest income was $122.4 million
compared to $116.9 million for the same period in 1998 excluding investment
securities gains and losses and unusual items.

         Noninterest expense for 1999 was $1.1 billion compared to $1.2 billion
in 1998. Excluding merger-related and other significant charges in 1998,
expenses rose $90.8 million for the year. Expected expense savings from the
charter consolidations and merger integration were more than offset by 1999
acquisitions; increased spending on advertising, promotion and training; and
efforts to expand future fee income in mortgage banking, brokerage, insurance,
and annuity sales.

         Noninterest expenses were $277.1 million for the fourth quarter of 1999
compared to $362.1 million for the same quarter in 1998 and $266.0 million for
the third quarter of 1999.

         Union Planters Corporation ended the year with total assets of $33.3
billion, total loans of $21.4 billion, and total deposits of $23.4 billion.
Shareholders' equity at December 31, 1999 was $2.8 billion and the shareholders'
equity to total assets and leverage ratios were 8.34% and 6.65%, respectively.

         The Company has purchased 4.7 million shares of its common stock in
connection with the share purchase plan announced in August 1999. The plan
authorized the repurchase of up to 5% of Union Planters' common stock or
approximately 7.1 million shares. The purchases were expected to

take place over an 18 to 24 month period in either open market or in privately
negotiated transactions.
