                         U. S. BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Principles of Consolidation

    The consolidated financial statements of U. S. Bancorp include the accounts
of U. S. Bancorp and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated. These statements are unaudited and should be
read in conjunction with the 1995 Form 10-K of U. S. Bancorp and Subsidiaries. A
summary of U. S. Bancorp's significant accounting policies is set forth in Note
1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in U. S. Bancorp's 1995 Form 10-K. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (comprised of normal recurring
accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements
have been included.

    Certain reclassifications of 1995 amounts were made in order to conform to
the 1996 presentation, none of which affect previously reported net income.

    The major banking subsidiaries of U. S. Bancorp include United States
National Bank of Oregon (U. S. Bank of Oregon), U. S. Bank of Washington, N.A.,
U. S. Bank of Idaho (fka West One Bank, Idaho), U. S. Bank of California, U. S.
Bank of Nevada and U. S. Bank of Utah.


 2. Acquisitions and Dispositions

    On June 6, 1996, the acquisition of California Bancshares, Inc. (CBI),
accounted for as a purchase, was completed. CBI, a $1.6 billion, nine bank
holding company for a 37-branch commercial banking operation, serves the San
Francisco east Bay Area and the central valley of northern California. U. S.
Bancorp issued approximately 9.6 million common shares in the transaction,
valued at $325 million, and intends to buy back an equal number of shares,
subject to market conditions and other factors. At June 6, 1996, CBI had total
assets of $1.6 billion, deposits of $1.4 billion and stockholders' equity of
$137 million. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net
assets acquired was $188 million and has been recorded as goodwill, which is
being amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. In addition, core
deposit intangibles of $32 million were recorded, to be amortized over eight
years on an accelerated basis.

    In December 1995, U. S. Bancorp completed its merger with West One Bancorp.
In May 1996, as part of the regulatory approval process for the merger, U. S.
Bancorp divested 31 branches, mainly in Oregon, with deposits of approximately
$700 million and loans of approximately $400 million. A pre-tax gain of $29
million was recognized.

3.  Accounting Pronouncements

    Effective January 1, 1996, U. S. Bancorp adopted three recently issued
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS).

    SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" addresses accounting for the impairment of
long-lived assets, such as premises, furniture and equipment, certain
identifiable intangibles and goodwill related to those assets. SFAS No. 122,
"Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights," an amendment of SFAS No. 65
requires that companies recognize as separate assets the rights to service
mortgage loans for others, however those servicing rights are acquired. SFAS
No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," prescribes accounting and
reporting standards for all stock-based compensation plans, including employee
stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. U. S. Bancorp
will disclose the relevant pro forma effect on net income and earnings per
share in its 1996 annual report on Form 10-K, in conformance with SFAS No. 123.

    These statements did not have a material effect on U. S. Bancorp's financial
condition, results of operations, cash flows or related disclosures as of June
30, 1996 and for the six months ended June 30, 1996.

    SFAS No. 125 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets
and Extinguishments of Liabilities," was issued in June 1996. This statement is
effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments
of liabilities occurring after December 31, 1996 and is not expected to have a
significant impact on U.S. Bancorp's financial condition, results of
operations, cash flows or related disclosures.


4.  Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

    In the normal course of business there are various commitments and
contingent liabilities to extend credit and guarantees, which are not reflected
in the financial statements. Management does not anticipate any material loss as
a result of these transactions. Such commitments and contingent liabilities
include commitments to extend credit of $17.4 billion, $15.9 billion and $13.8
billion and standby letters of credit of $1.1 billion, $1.1 billion and $1.1
billion at June 30, 1996, December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1995, respectively.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

         To facilitate the discussion of its results of operations, in the table
on the next page, U. S. Bancorp presents an additional analysis of performance
to supplement the accompanying consolidated statement of income and balance
sheet. This additional analysis of performance should not be viewed as a
substitute for the generally accepted accounting principle-based financial
statements previously presented. There are three primary differences between the
consolidated statement of income and the operating income analysis that follows.
First, the operating income analysis presents the line items in a slightly
different order. Second, certain transactions that are nonrecurring or that are
not related to what management believes are core businesses, are not included in
noninterest revenues and noninterest expenses in determining operating income.
Finally, operating income is also before the provision for credit losses, other
real estate owned transactions (OREO) and income taxes. The provision for credit
losses is excluded from operating income as its amount is based on the analysis
of the required level of the allowance for credit losses and can be subject to
fluctuation due to the prevailing level of charge-offs. Management has presented
the additional analysis in the belief that it is meaningful to understand the
results and trends in operating income separately from nonrecurring
transactions, noncore activities, certain provisions and OREO transactions. Due
to the format of this presentation, not all line items agree directly to the
consolidated financial statements.

         For the second quarter of 1996, net income was $127.1 million, compared
with net income of $98.7 million in the second quarter of 1995. Operating
income, as defined and presented in the following table, increased 10 percent
over the same period a year ago, due to increases in net interest income and
noninterest revenues and a reduction in noninterest expenses. The following 
key highlights compare the second quarter of 1996 with the same period of 1995
unless otherwise noted:

  -  Net income totaled $127.1 million, or $.82 per share, an increase of 29
     percent from $98.7 million, or $.63 per share. A gain on sale of divested
     branches and other noncore/nonrecurring transactions contributed $.07 per
     share after tax.

  -  Operating income (income on a tax-equivalent basis before the provision
     for credit losses, OREO transactions, items determined to be noncore or
     nonrecurring, and income taxes) of $211.4 million was up 10 percent from
     $191.9 million. 

  -  Net interest margin was 5.31 percent compared with 5.40 percent. The
     change was attributable to yields on interest-earning assets declining to
     a greater extent than rates on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest
     income (tax-equivalent basis) increased 3 percent to $371.2 million.

  -  Noninterest revenue (before items determined to be noncore or
     nonrecurring) was $131.4 million, an increase of 1 percent from $130.4
     million.

  -  Noninterest expenses (before OREO transactions and items determined to be
     noncore or nonrecurring) of $291.2 million decreased 2 percent from $297.6
     million.

  -  The provision for credit losses was $26.5 million, compared with $25.2
     million. Net charge-offs were .49 percent compared with .34 percent in the
     second quarter of 1995, as the result of higher losses in the commercial
     and consumer portfolios.

  -  Return on average assets (ROA) was 1.62 percent compared with 1.33 percent,
     while the return on average common equity (ROE) was 19.38 percent compared
     with 15.84 percent.

  -  Excluding the after-tax effect of noncore/nonrecurring items, ROA was 
     1.49 percent compared with 1.33 percent, and ROE was 17.70 percent 
     compared with 15.95 percent.

  -  The overhead ratio, excluding OREO and noncore/nonrecurring transactions,
     improved to 57.9 percent from 60.8 percent.

         Earnings per share were $1.55 in 1996 compared with $1.23 for the
first six months in 1995. Noncore/nonrecurring transactions contributed $.10
per share after tax in 1996. Noncore/nonrecurring revenues and expenses in 1995
effectively offset, with no earnings impact.

         For the first six months of 1996, net income was $240.0 million
compared with $193.5 million for the first six months of 1995. ROA, adjusted to
exclude noncore/nonrecurring transactions was 1.45 percent for the
first six months of 1996 compared to 1.31 percent for the first six months of
1995, and the return on average common equity improved to 17.43 percent in the
first half of 1996 from 15.81 percent in the comparable period of 1995.

         The table below presents U. S. Bancorp's operating income analysis for
the second quarter and six month periods. A discussion of the major changes in
each key component follows.

NET INTEREST INCOME - TAX-EQUIVALENT BASIS

         Net interest income, the principal source of U. S. Bancorp's operating
income, includes interest income and fees generated by interest-earning assets,
primarily loans and securities portfolios, less interest expense on
interest-bearing liabilities, primarily deposits, purchased funds and short- and
long-term debt. Net interest income is affected by the volume and relative mix
of both earning assets and interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing liabilities,
and related interest yields and rates paid on these assets and liabilities.

Second Quarter Ended June 30, 1996 Compared With Second Quarter Ended June 30,
  1995

         Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the second quarter of
1996 was $371.2 million, an increase of $12.1 million, over the second quarter
of 1995. The net interest margin in the second quarter of 1996 was 5.31 percent
compared with 5.40 percent in the same quarter a year ago, and 5.19 percent in
the first quarter of 1996.

         The spread between the yield on interest-earning assets and rates paid
on interest-bearing liabilities decreased in the second quarter of 1996 compared
with second quarter 1995 because the decrease in the yields on interest-earning
assets exceeded the decrease in rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The
increase in net interest income was mainly due to the favorable effect of 
volume changes.

         Total loans averaged $23.5 billion in the second quarter 1996, an
increase of $1.5 billion, or 7 percent, compared with the second quarter a year
ago, with growth in all reported categories of loans. Average total securities
portfolios were $3.8 billion during the second quarter of 1996, a 10 percent
decrease from $4.2 billion in the second quarter 1995. The decrease was
primarily due to the proceeds on maturities of securities used to fund loan
growth.

         Average noninterest-bearing deposits increased $447 million, or 9
percent, in the second quarter of 1996 compared with the second quarter of 1995.
Average interest-bearing deposits in the second quarter of 1996 increased $1.3
billion, or 8 percent, over the same period in 1995 primarily due to increases
in money market accounts, other time deposits and time deposits of $100,000 or
more. Average short-term borrowings, comprised of federal funds purchased and
security repurchase agreements, commercial paper and other short-term
borrowings, decreased $513 million and average long-term debt increased $206
million in the second quarter of 1996 compared to the same period last year. In
June 1996, U. S. Bancorp issued $200 million in subordinated debentures.

Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared With Six Months Ended June 30, 1995

         Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis was $730.3 million, a
$13.3 million increase over the first six months of 1995. The net interest
margin in the first six months of 1996 was 5.26 percent compared with 5.41
percent in the first six months of 1995.

         The spread between the yield on interest-earning assets and rates paid
on interest-bearing liabilities decreased in the first six months of 1996
compared with the same period last year mainly because the decrease in yields on
interest-earning assets exceeded the decrease in rates paid on interest-bearing
deposits. The increase in net interest income was mainly due to the effects of
favorable volume changes.

         Total loans averaged $23.2 billion in the first six months of 1996, an
increase of $1.4 billion, or 6 percent, compared with the same period a year
ago. Average loan increases were primarily due to growth in commercial, real
estate mortgage and real estate construction loans, and lease financing.
Average total securities portfolios were $3.9 billion during the first six
months of 1996, a 9 percent decrease from $4.3 billion in the first six months
of 1995. The decrease is primarily due to the use of the proceeds on maturities
of securities to fund loan growth.

         Average noninterest-bearing deposits increased $374 million, or 8
percent, in the first six months of 1996 compared with the first six months of
1995. Average interest-bearing deposits in the first half of 1996 increased $1.3
billion, or 8 percent, over the same period in 1995, primarily due to increases
in money market accounts, other time deposits and time deposits of $100,000 or
more. Average short-term borrowings decreased $682 million while average
long-term debt increased $228 million in the first six months of 1996 compared
to the same period last year.

</TABLE>


         Service charges for the second quarter and first six months of 1996
were relatively unchanged compared with the same periods in 1995. The decline 
in bankcard revenues in 1996 resulted from the September 1995 sale of an 
interest in the merchant processing service business and the allocation of the 
merchant contract base to a co-owned business alliance. Certain expenses also 
declined as the result of this transaction, as discussed in the analysis of 
noninterest expense below.

         Trust and investment management fees, insurance revenues and brokerage
and other commissions have increased in the second quarter and first six months
of 1996 compared to the same periods in 1995 due mainly to increased emphasis on
fee-based sources of revenue and the resultant increases in sales volumes of
related products and services. Funds under management in Qualivest Funds, U. S.
Bancorp's proprietary mutual funds, grew 25 percent in the first six months of
1996 from year-end 1995.

         Mortgage banking income increased in the second quarter and first six
months of 1996 as compared to the same periods in 1995, and was due primarily to
a higher level of mortgage loan originations and related mortgage banking
activities. In addition, the implementation of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights," resulted in the
recognition of approximately $2.4 million in income related to originated
mortgage servicing rights in 1996. Included in other revenue in the table above
for the first six months of 1996 is $3.2 million of servicing income
attributable to the portfolio of affinity credit card receivables sold in the
second quarter of 1995 under an interim servicing agreement.

         In 1996, the gain on sale of operations and loans consisted primarily
of a $28.8 million gain on sale of branches divested in May 1996 in conjunction
with the West One Bancorp (West One) acquisition. Also included in this line
item was $3.0 million of net losses on credit card portfolio sales. The 1995
periods included primarily a gain on sale of affinity credit card portfolios of
$4.2 million and a $500 thousand branch sale gain. Equity investment income is
mainly derived from U. S. Bancorp's investment as a limited partner in several
limited partnerships and, to a lesser degree, in venture capital investments. 
U.S. Bancorp has no control over investment sales activities by the general
partners. U. S. Bancorp recognized gains of $13.0 million in the first six 
months of 1996, and $4.9 million in the second quarter of 1996, related to sales
of limited partnership investments by the general partners. Gains of $4.5
million in the first six months of 1996 and $2.2 million in the second quarter
of 1996 were recognized on disposition of venture capital investments.

         Other noncore/nonrecurring revenue items in 1995 included a $5.1
million gain on sale of a previously occupied bank headquarters building, a $1.7
million gain on sale of mortgage loan servicing rights, and $2.0 million of
losses related to U. S. Bancorp's import/export financing subsidiary that was
liquidated in 1995.

         The available-for-sale securities gains in the first six months of 1996
reflected primarily the sale of U.S. Treasury and mortgage-backed securities,
with subsequent reinvestment of most of the proceeds in additional
available-for-sale securities.

NONINTEREST EXPENSES

         Noninterest expenses, before noncore/nonrecurring items, decreased 2
percent in the second quarter of 1996 compared with the second quarter of 1995.
Excluding the impact of the CBI acquisition, noninterest expenses declined 3
percent in the second quarter of 1996 compared with the second quarter of 1995,
and 6 percent in the first six months of 1996 compared with the prior period.
The principal components of noninterest expense are shown in the following

</TABLE>

         Several categories of expenses have been significantly affected by the
cost savings achieved as the result of the West One merger and other factors.
Net occupancy and equipment related expenses have been reduced reflecting back
office and branch consolidations. The decrease in legal and accounting and the
expense category all other was also reflective of the merger-related
integration efforts and business consolidations.

         Regulatory agency fees were down 80 percent in the first six months of
1996 and 79 percent in the second quarter of 1996 compared to the same periods
in 1995 due to the reduction in FDIC deposit insurance premiums. The rate
assessed for well-capitalized banks decreased from $.23 to $.04 of FDIC insured
deposits at June 1, 1995, and the rate was zero for the second quarter of 1996
for deposits insured by the Bank Insurance Fund.

          Amortization of goodwill and core deposit intangibles increased $204 
thousand in the first six months of 1996 and $689 thousand in the second 
quarter of 1996 compared with the same periods in 1995, as a result of the 
goodwill and core deposit intangible assets related to the CBI acquisition. In 
subsequent periods, the quarterly amortization of CBI intangibles will 
approximate $3.8 million.

          The acquisition of CBI, accounted for as a purchase in June 1996, 
added $1.6 million to employee compensation and benefits in the second quarter 
of 1996. The following discussion of employee compensation and benefits 
excludes the impact of CBI. Employee compensation, composed of salaries and 
incentive payments, increased $8.7 million in the second quarter of 1996 over 
1995 and increased $7.8 million in the first six months of 1996 compared with 
the comparable prior period. Salaries expense decreased $3.6 million in the 
first six months of 1996 compared with 1995 due to reductions in the number of
employees as the consolidation of West One operations and branches continued.   
Incentive compensation increased $7.6 million in the first six months of 1996
compared with 1995, mainly due to higher levels of payments to branch personnel
related to retail deposit origination and retention programs. Employee benefits
increased $1.4 million in the first six months of 1996 compared with the same
period of 1995. Increases in pension and 401(k) plan expenses were partially
offset by a $4.8 million decrease in medical plan expenses for the first six
months of 1996 compared to 1995.

         Contract personnel expenses increased in the first six months and
second quarter of 1996 compared with the same periods in 1995. U. S. Bancorp
uses contract personnel to provide flexibility in addressing consolidation and
merger and integration-related activities.

        The expense category all other decreased $3.5 million in the second
quarter of 1996 compared with the second quarter of 1995, and decreased $13.6
million in the first six months of 1996 compared with the prior year. On a
year-to-date basis, expenses related to the merchant processing service
business sold in 1995 decreased $1.9 million. Bankcard related expenses
declined $3.6 million as a result of the 1995 affinity card portfolio sale. In
addition, consulting expenses decreased $2.9 million as certain merger
integration activity has declined.

         The overhead ratio (defined as noninterest expenses as a percentage of
tax-equivalent net interest income and noninterest revenues) was 56.1
percent in the second quarter of 1996 compared with 61.7 percent in the second
quarter of 1995. Excluding other real estate owned transactions and noncore/
nonrecurring items, the adjusted overhead ratio was 57.9 percent in the second
quarter of 1996, compared with 60.8 percent in the second quarter of 1995.

         In connection with the West One merger in the fourth quarter of 1995,
U. S. Bancorp recorded a pre-tax merger and integration cost provision of $98.9
million. An additional $18.2 million of merger-related expenses were incurred
during the first six months of 1996. The merger and integration activity is
summarized in the table below.

INCOME TAXES

         The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995
were 35.8 percent and 33.8 percent, respectively. The increase in the effective
tax rate in 1996 was mainly due to the higher level of earnings leading to a
corresponding decrease in the proportion of tax-exempt income compared with
1995.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

SECURITIES PORTFOLIOS

         Securities available for sale totaled $3.1 billion at June 30, 1996
compared with $3.3 billion at December 31, 1995 and $2.2 billion at June 30,
1995. Securities held to maturity totaled $854 million at June 30, 1996,
compared with $865 million at December 31, 1995 and $1.9 billion at June 30,
1995. Securities in both portfolios may decline moderately in the future as the
cash received from maturities may be used to fund loan growth. The
year-over-year changes in the securities portfolio balances mainly reflect the
impact of the reclassification of $800 million of held-to-maturity securities to
available-for-sale securities in the fourth quarter of 1995.

LOAN PORTFOLIO

         Loans outstanding were $23.9 billion, $22.8 billion and $22.3 billion
at June 30, 1996, December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1995, respectively. Loan
balances at June 30, 1996 included $1.0 billion of loans related to the CBI
purchase. Average loans increased at an annualized rate of 9 percent from $22.9
billion in the first quarter of 1996 to $23.5 billion in the second quarter of
1996. Excluding the impact of the CBI purchase and loans sold in conjunction
with divested branches, annualized loan growth from the first quarter of 1996 
to the second quarter of 1996 was 7 percent. Loan growth was particularly 
strong in commercial and real estate construction loans and lease financing 
receivables.

LIQUIDITY

         Liquidity is the ability to raise adequate and reasonably priced funds,
including deposits, purchased funds, varying maturities of notes, long-term 
debt and equity capital, and is determined based on the mix and maturities of a
assets and liabilities.

         Core deposits, defined as deposits other than time deposits of $100,000
or more, are U. S. Bancorp's primary source of funding and provide a sizable
source of relatively stable, low-cost funds. Average core deposits increased to
$21.0 billion in the second quarter of 1996, an increase of $270 million from
the first quarter of 1996.

         Other sources of liquidity include purchased funds, comprised of time
deposits over $100,000, federal funds purchased and security repurchase
agreements, commercial paper and short-term borrowings. Average purchased funds
in the first and second quarters of 1996 were $5.4 billion. A portion of the
remaining funding of average total assets came from long-term debt, which
averaged $1.4 billion in the first and second quarters of 1996.

         U. S. Bancorp's liquidity is enhanced by its accessibility to a
diversity of national market sources of funds. At June 30, 1996, U. S. Bancorp
had available a total of $1.2 billion in uncommitted borrowing capacities for
medium-term notes, preferred stock and a general liquidity line of credit. U.S.
Bancorp also issued $200 million in subordinated debentures June 13, 1996, 
with a maturity date of June 1, 2026. Registered holders may elect to redeem 
all or a portion of the debentures on June 1, 2006.

         Subject to market conditions and other factors, it is anticipated that
U. S. Bancorp will repurchase 9.6 million shares of its common stock,
approximately equal to the shares issued to stockholders of CBI, and will obtain
the funds for the purchase of such shares from a variety of sources, including
issuance of debt, asset maturities and sales, and other sources of liquidity. As
of June 30, 1996, approximately 60 percent of the shares had been repurchased,
with the purchase program expected to be completed in the third quarter of 1996.

PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

         The provision for credit losses was $26.5 million for the second 
quarter of 1996 and $56.6 million for the first six months of 1996. This
compares with $25.2 million for the second quarter of 1995 and $48.7 million for
the first six months of 1995. The higher provision reflected the growth in the
loan portfolio, the increase in the ratio of the allowance for credit losses to
1.90 percent of loans from 1.77 percent at June 30, 1995, and a higher level of
net charge-offs in 1996. The provision for credit losses in the second quarter 
of 1996 also includes approximately $5.2 million related to the merger with 
CBI, the integration of the combined loan portfolios and the impact of the 
reduction in loans related to branch divestitures.

         Management performs a quarterly analysis to establish the appropriate
level of the allowance, taking into consideration such factors as loan loss
experience, an evaluation of potential losses in the portfolio, credit
concentrations and trends in portfolio volume, maturity, delinquencies and
nonaccruals, risks associated with standby letters of credit which guarantee the
debt of others and other off-balance sheet commitments, and prevailing and
anticipated economic conditions. U. S. Bancorp closely monitors credit risk in
its loan portfolio and believes that its credit approval and review processes
are effective and operating in accordance with sound banking policy, and that
the allowance for credit losses at June 30, 1996 was adequate to absorb
potential credit losses inherent in loans, leases, loan commitments and standby
letters of credit outstanding at that date.

         U. S. Bancorp continues to evaluate its loan portfolio for impairment
as defined by SFAS No. 114, "Accounting for Creditors for Impairment of a Loan,"
as amended. The total recorded investment in impaired loans was $81.2 million 
at June 30, 1996, compared with $104.0 million at December 31, 1995. Any 
associated valuation allowance was not material.

ASSET QUALITY

         As illustrated in the table below, nonperforming assets as a 
percentage of loans and foreclosed assets was .73 percent at June 30, 1996 and
December 31, 1995, compared to .95 percent at June 30, 1995. Nonperforming
assets totaled $176 million at June 30, 1996, compared to $167 million at
December 31, 1995 and $213 million a year ago. While the overall credit quality
of the loan portfolio has improved, the total nonaccrual balance may fluctuate
from quarter to quarter. U. S. Bancorp anticipates normal fluctuations in the
balance of nonaccrual loans as it increases its lending activity and resolves
loans currently in the nonaccrual portfolio.

         Nonaccrual loans were reduced by principal payments, charge-offs and
other transactions totaling $92 million, offsetting new loans placed on
nonaccrual during the first six months of 1996 totaling $67 million and
nonaccrual loans added in the CBI acquisition of $11 million, for a net decrease
of $14 million. The increase in OREO at June 30, 1996 compared with year-end
1995 was due primarily to repossession of commercial real estate properties
located in California previously reported as nonaccrual loans. Total bank
properties pending disposition at June 30, 1996 increased due to the
consolidation of branches in Oregon and Washington related to the West One
acquisition. The majority of the properties have sales transactions pending.

         In addition to the loans classified as nonperforming, U. S. Bancorp has
other loans which it has internally classified, largely due to weakening
financial strength of the borrowers or concern about specific industries. These
loans, although currently performing in accordance with contractual terms, are
monitored closely by management and have been considered in establishing the
level of the allowance for credit losses. U. S. Bancorp's lending procedures and
loan portfolio, including internally classified loans, are examined by
regulatory agencies as part of their supervisory activities.

         The following table summarizes U. S. Bancorp's nonperforming assets and
past due loans. Past due loans are defined as loans contractually past due as to
interest or principal 90 days or more.

CAPITAL AND DIVIDENDS

         The federal bank regulatory agencies have jointly issued rules which
implement a system of prompt corrective action for financial institutions
required by FDICIA. The rules define the relevant capital levels for the five
categories, ranging from "well-capitalized" to "critically undercapitalized". An
insured depository institution is generally deemed to be "well-capitalized" if
it has a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10 percent, a Tier 1
risk-based capital ratio of at least six percent, and a leverage ratio of at
least five percent.

         Risk-based capital guidelines issued by the Federal Reserve Board
establish a risk-adjusted ratio relating capital to different categories of
assets and off-balance sheet exposures for bank holding companies. The
guidelines require a minimum total risk-based capital ratio of eight percent,
with half of the total in the form of Tier 1 capital. U. S. Bancorp's Tier 1
capital is comprised primarily of common equity and perpetual preferred stock,
less goodwill and certain other intangibles, and excludes the equity impact of
adjusting available for sale securities to market value. Total capital also
includes subordinated debt and a portion of the allowance for credit losses, as
defined.

         The risk-based capital rules have been supplemented by a leverage
ratio, defined as Tier 1 capital to adjusted quarterly average total assets.
Banking organizations other than those which are most highly rated are expected
to maintain ratios at least 100 to 200 basis points above the minimum three
percent level, depending on their financial condition.

         Each subsidiary bank is subjected to capital requirements similar to
the requirements for bank holding companies. At June 30, 1996, all of U. S.
Bancorp's banking subsidiaries met the risk-based capital ratio and leverage
ratio requirements for "well-capitalized" banks. The banking subsidiaries'
ratios are expected to be maintained at such levels by the retention of earnings
and, if necessary, the issuance of additional capital-qualifying securities.

         The risk-based capital and leverage ratios for U. S. Bancorp and its
significant bank subsidiaries at June 30, 1996 are presented in the table below:
