              of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was

ITEM 3.       SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

       D. Canale & Co. is the registered owner of the securities identified on
       Schedule 13D, page 3 of 6, having held such shares for several years,
       purchasing same from working capital. Peggy W. Canale became the majority
       shareholder and Chairman of the Board of D. Canale

National Commerce Bancorporation



       & Co. and "acquired" such shares as a result of the death in February
       1996 of her spouse John D. Canale, Jr., pursuant to the terms of the
       decedent's Last Will and Testament. Therefore, Mrs. Canale's acquisition
       was by way of inheritance as opposed to a "purchase."

       In December of 1997, Peggy W. Canale made a charitable contribution of
       forty-nine (49%) of the common capital stock of D. Canale & Co. to a
       501(c)(3) organization which was subsequently redeemed by the Company.
       Additionally, Mrs. Canale gifted to her grandchildren's trust the
       remaining two (2%) percent of her common stock holdings, thereby
       divesting herself of any interest in the voting stock of D. Canale & Co.
       As a result of Mrs. Canale's transactions, her two sons, John D. Canale
       III and Christopher W. Canale, both reporting persons share sole voting
       power over the reporting person individually and/or as trustee of their
       family trust. This filing is to delete Mrs. Canale as a reporting person.
       Mr. John D. Canale III is affiliated as a director of the issuer and Mr.
       Christopher W. Canale is a director of the issuer's primary subsidiary,
       National Bank of Commerce.

ITEM 4.       PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

       The Reporting Person has no plans or proposals which relate to or would
result in any of the actions enumerated in (a) through (j) of this Item 4.

ITEM 5.       INTEREST OF SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

       (a)    The aggregate number of shares of common stock of the Issuer
              beneficially owned by the Reporting Person 2,620,916 (split
              adjusted), which shares constitute approximately 5.37% of the
              shares outstanding.

              Peggy W. Canale is a holder individually of 34,532 (split
              adjusted) shares of common stock of the Issuer and prior to
              December 1997, held a majority vote of the shares of D. Canale &
              Co. with sole power to vote and dispose of the shares of D. Canale
              & Co., which with the shares held separately represented a
              combined sole voting power of 2,655,448 or 5.44% of the
              outstanding class of securities of Issuer. As of December 31,
              1997, Mrs. Canale no longer held an interest in the voting
              securities of D. Canale & Co. and, therefore, is being deleted as
              a reporting person.

       (b)    The Reporting Person, D. Canale & Co. has sole power to vote and
              dispose of the 2,620,916 shares.

       (c)    On February 1996, John D. Canale, Jr. the controlling shareholder
              of D. Canale & Co. died, and as a result of the provisions of Mr.
              Canale's Last Will and Testament, Peggy W. Canale, the Reporting
              Person herein, inherited the majority control of D. Canale & Co.
              the holder of the common stock of Issuer. As of December 31, 1997,
              Mrs. Canale no longer held a voting interest in D. Canale & Co.
              The Schedule 13D filed herein is being filed on behalf of D.
              Canale & Co. and to remove Peggy W. Canale as a reporting person.

       (d)    John D. Canale III and Christopher W. Canale share the right to
              receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or
              the proceeds from the sale of, such securities held by D. Canale &
              Co., the reporting person.

       (e)    Peggy W. Canale ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5%
              on December 18, 1997.
