       Notes to Consolidated Balance Sheets and Income Statements (Unaudited)


1.)  Acquisitions

On March 1, 1996, UJB Financial Corp. completed its acquisition
of The Summit	Bancorporation, and the company changed its
name to Summit Bancorp.  This acquisition	was accounted for as
a pooling of interests and all financial information has been
restated	to reflect the combined results of operations.  On
January 16, 1996, The Summit	Bancorporation acquired Garden
State Bancshares, Inc. ("Garden State") and on February 	23,
1996, UJB Financial Corp. acquired The Flemington National Bank
and Trust	Company ("Flemington").  Both of these acquisitions
were accounted for as poolings ofinterests.  However, because
these acquisitions were considered immaterial to Summit
Bancorp., the Flemington and Garden State transactions were
recorded as adjustments to	beginning shareholders' equity at
January 1, 1996, without restating the consolidated	financial
statements for 1995 and prior.


2.)  Restructuring Charges

Restructuring charges were recorded in the first quarter for
merger-related expenses of	$89.0 million for The Summit
Bancorporation, $4.3 million for The Flemington National	Bank
and Trust Company and $7.9 million for Garden State Bancshares. 
Also included in	the restructuring charges was $9.5 million of
branch-related expenses recorded in	conjunction with an
announced agreement to open 70 in-store supermarket branches.
