One of the required criteria for pooling of interests accounting
is that the parties to the business combination must share
mutually in the combined risks and rights of the transaction. 
In order to satisfy this risk sharing criteria of pooling of
interests accounting,  Securities and Exchange Commission
Accounting Series Release 135 provides that the risk sharing
will have occurred if no affiliate of either party to the merger
transaction sells or otherwise disposes of any common stock
received in the  transaction until such time as financial
results covering 30 days of post-merger combined operations have
been published. 


In order to satisfy the risk sharing criteria, and thereby allow
affiliates of either party to the transaction to sell or
otherwise dispose of UJB common stock acquired in the merger (in


                              1

compliance with SEC Rules 145 and 144 regarding resales of
common stock acquired in a business combination)  provided below
are financial results which reflect the required 30 days of
post-merger combined operations as required by SEC Accounting
Series Release 135 ( dollars in thousands except per share):
