NOTE 1. ACCOUNTING ADJUSTMENTS
In the opinion of management, all of the adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals unless otherwise indicated) necessary for a fair statement of
the results of operations have been included in the accompanying financial
statements. Certain 1993 amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 1994
presentation.
NOTE 2. SECURITIES PORTFOLIOS
Effective January 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities." Statement No. 115 addresses the accounting and reporting for
certain investments in debt and marketable equity securities. Statement No. 115
requires changes in the fair value of the securities available for sale
portfolio be recorded directly to a separate category of stockholders' equity.
Previously, securities available for sale were valued at the lower of aggregate
cost or market, and changes therein were recorded directly to earnings. At
adoption the fair value of the securities available for sale exceeded their
amortized cost by $4,443,000 or $2,500,000 on an after-tax basis, and thus
stockholders' equity was increased by that amount. At March 31, 1994 the fair
value of the securities available for sale exceeded their amortized cost by
$3,104,000, or $1,773,000 on an after-tax basis.
The following table provides the amortized cost, estimated market values,
and yields of the securities portfolios by maturity.

NOTE 3. POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
Effective January 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard No. 112, "Employers Accounting for Postemployment Benefits."
Statement No. 112 covers all postemployment benefits not already covered by two
prior accounting pronouncements. The adoption of Statement No. 112 resulted in
an additional accrual of postemployment benefits of $1,615,000, or $932,000 on
an after-tax basis in the first quarter of 1994. The recurring annual cost of
postemployment benefits to former employees is estimated at approximately
$250,000. This amount is comparable to the annual cost incurred in 1993.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
BayBanks' net income was $21.3 million for the first quarter of 1994, or
$1.11 per share, compared with net income of $12.8 million, or $.68 per share,
for the first quarter of 1993. The major factors that contributed to the
increase in net income were as follows:
- Operating income (defined below) increased by 19% in the first quarter of
1994, compared with that of the first quarter of 1993, as a result of an
8% increase in net interest income and a 6% increase in noninterest
income, which was partially offset by a 3% growth in expenses.
- Asset quality continued to improve; nonperforming assets were reduced to
$204 million, a 9% decrease from December 31, 1993, and a 40% decrease
from March 31, 1993. As a consequence the combined provision for loan
losses and the other real estate owned (OREO) reserve decreased 52% to
$8.9 million in the first quarter of 1994 from $18.5 million in the first
quarter of 1993.
- Net income for the first quarter of 1994 included an after tax charge of
$932 thousand, or $.05 per share, reflecting the cumulative effect of the
Company's adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, No.
112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits."
EARNINGS ANALYSIS
Operating Income
Operating income, presented in TABLE A, is on a tax equivalent basis;
excludes net securities gains, the provisions for loan losses and the OREO
reserve, and nonrecurring items; and is before income taxes. For the first
quarter of 1994, total income from operations was $160.4 million compared with
$149.5 million in the first quarter of 1993 as a result of an 8% increase in net
interest income and a 6% growth in noninterest income, which was partially
offset by a 3% growth in operating expenses.

Net Interest Income (tax equivalent basis)
Net interest income was $110.6 million in the first quarter of 1994,
compared with $102.6 million in the first quarter of 1993. The net interest
margin in the first quarter of 1994 was 5.00%, compared with 4.83% in the first
quarter of 1993. The net interest margin was 5.08% in the fourth quarter of
1993. Net interest income and the net interest margin are affected by the mix of
interest-bearing assets and liabilities, movements in interest rates and the
level of nonperforming assets. Since the first quarter of 1993 the funding costs
of the Company have declined as deposit rates fell sharply and customers'
preferences have emphasized lower-rate NOW and savings accounts.
The cost of total interest-bearing liabilities fell 59 basis points to
2.16% in the first quarter of 1994 from 2.75% in the first quarter of 1993. The
yield on earning assets fell by 36 basis points to 6.72% in the first quarter of
1994, compared with 7.08% in the first quarter of 1993, due to a decrease in the
loan portfolio yield from 8.37% to 7.81%, as certain maturing loans with higher
yields are replaced with new business at somewhat lower rates.
Fees, Service Charges, and Other Noninterest Income
Noninterest income consists primarily of service charges on deposit
accounts and fees from credit and non-credit services and is well diversified
among consumer, corporate, and small business banking activities.
Noninterest income (TABLE B) increased 6% to $49.7 million in the first
quarter of 1994, compared with $46.9 million in the first quarter of 1993.
Service charges on deposit accounts continued to contribute over one half
of noninterest income. Total service charges on deposits increased 5% to $26.3
million in the first quarter of 1994, compared with $24.9 million in the first
quarter of 1993. The increase is attributable to higher fees and service charges
on consumer accounts and increased usage of corporate transaction services.
Credit card fees increased 13% to $5.1 million in the first quarter of 1994
from $4.5 million in the first quarter of 1993 due to higher merchant volume.
Mortgage banking fees decreased 18% to $2.3 million in the first quarter of
1994 from $2.8 million in the first quarter of 1993 due to a lower level of
secondary market activity resulting from a decrease in refinance volumes.
Trust fees were $3.8 million in the first quarter of 1994, compared with
$3.6 million in the first quarter of 1993 due to the increase in corporate trust
assets. Investment management and brokerage fees increased 52% to $2.1 million
in the first quarter of 1994 from $1.4 million in the first quarter of 1993 due
to increases in brokerage fees for retail transactions, mutual fund sales fees,
and investment advisory fees from BayFunds(R). Total assets under management in
BayFunds were $1.2 billion at March 31, 1994, compared to $808 million at March
31, 1993.
Processing fees increased due to higher income from non-BayBank cardholders
using BayBank ATMs.

There were no net securities gains in the first quarter of 1993 and
securities gains were nominal at $39 thousand for the first quarter of 1994.
Operating Expenses
The operating expense analysis presented in TABLE C separates expense
categories of a more recurring nature from OREO and legal expenses related to
the workout of problem assets. Operating expenses, excluding OREO and legal
expenses related to workouts (as well as writedowns and reserves related to
OREO), were $108.6 million in the first quarter of 1994, compared with $104.1
million in the first quarter of 1993.
Salaries and benefits were $56.4 million in the first quarter of 1994,
compared with $51.6 million in the first quarter of 1993. The increase resulted
from normal salary increases, including the timing of such increases, and the
additional staffing required by certain expanding product lines such as
BayFunds, consumer credit, and mortgage lending.
FDIC insurance was $5.5 million in the first quarter of 1994 compared with
$6.2 million in the first quarter of 1993. The first quarter of 1993 amount was
prior to the FDIC retroactively giving banks the benefit of higher capital
ratios, achieved in the second half of 1992. A refund of $1.3 million, related
to the first six months of 1993, was received in the second quarter of 1993.
Marketing and public relations expenses were $5.1 million in the first
quarter of 1994, compared with $4.7 million in the first quarter of 1993, as the
result of the timing of such programs.
Other operating expenses were $14.3 million in the first quarter of 1994,
compared with $14.5 million in the first quarter of 1993, primarily the result
of lower legal expenses.
The cost of administering, managing, and disposing of OREO properties and
related legal expenses was $3.6 million in the first quarter of 1994, compared
with $5.0 million in the first quarter of 1993, reflecting the continued
disposition of OREO.

Provision for Loan Losses and Other Real Estate Owned Reserve
Due to the continued improvement in BayBanks' credit quality, the provision
for loan losses and the OREO reserve (credit provisions) declined substantially
in the first quarter of 1994 to $8.9 million compared with $18.5 million in the
first quarter of 1993. The provision for loan losses was $6.0 million in the
first quarter of 1994, compared with $11.5 million in the first quarter of 1993.
The provision for the OREO reserve was $2.9 million in the first quarter of
1994, compared with $7.0 million in the first quarter of 1993. The OREO
provision was net of gains on sales of properties of $563 thousand in the first
quarter of 1994 and $1.1 million in the first quarter of 1993.

<PAGE> 11
Income Taxes
The Company reported a provision for income taxes of $15.1 million in the
first quarter of 1994, compared with $8.0 million in the first quarter of 1993.
The effective tax rate in the first quarter of 1994 was 40.4%, compared with
38.5% in the first quarter of 1993. The increase in the effective tax rate
reflected the higher federal tax rate enacted in the second quarter of 1993, a
lower relative amount of tax exempt income in 1994, and higher state income
taxes due to a higher proportion of income from bank subsidiaries which are
taxed at a higher rate than nonbank subsidiaries.
BALANCE SHEET REVIEW
Trends in Earning Assets
Average earning assets increased to $8.9 billion during the first quarter
of 1994, compared with $8.5 billion in the first quarter of 1993, due to the
increase in average short-term investments and securities portfolios to $2.9
billion in the first quarter of 1994 from $2.7 billion in the first quarter of
1993 and the increase in the average loan portfolio to $6.0 billion in the first
quarter of 1994 from $5.9 billion in the first quarter of 1993. Consumer loan
categories grew while the commercial categories declined.
Loan Portfolio
The loan portfolios of the Company are diversified (TABLE D). Consumer
loans represent 63% of the quarter-end loan portfolio, with $1.2 billion in
residential loan balances and $2.6 billion in various types of instalment loan
balances. The consumer lending activities of the Company are focused primarily
on the Massachusetts market. The remaining 37% of the loan portfolio is
commercial and commercial real estate loans. The majority of the Company's
commercial loans are to New England-based companies, primarily local
middle-market companies and small businesses in Massachusetts.
The Company originates fixed-and adjustable-rate residential mortgage
loans. Generally fixed-rate residential real estate loan originations are
securitized and sold to the secondary market with servicing retained, while
floating-rate residential real estate loan originations are held in the loan
portfolio or may be securitized and transferred to the securities available for
sale portfolio.
An analysis of changes in major loan categories from December 31, 1993, to
March 31, 1994, is presented in TABLE D. Net business volume was $146 million
compared with $175 million in the first quarter of 1993. Residential real estate
loan volume was principally due to refinancing activity, although there was an
increase in loans for purchases. The Company sold $171 million of fixed-rate
residential real estate loans during the first quarter of 1994, compared with
$266 million in the first quarter of 1993. At March 31, 1994, loans held for
resale were $40.0 million, compared with $79 million at March 31, 1993.
Instalment net loan business volume was $33 million, compared with $79 million
in the first quarter of 1993. Automobile lending totals are down when compared
with 1993's first quarter due to an exceptionally strong performance in 1993 and
somewhat adverse weather conditions in 1994. Credit card business volumes
decreased, reflecting a seasonal decline in these balances, while student loan
volumes continued to be strong. Outflows in the commercial real estate portfolio
declined from $46 million during the first quarter of 1993 to $6 million in the
first quarter of 1994. Commercial loan volumes continued to fluctuate due to
selected overnight money market-priced loans, international trade finance
activities principally with Mexican banks, and continuing pay downs on loans to
certain industries where the Company is no longer active.

</TABLE>
Securities Portfolios
The securities portfolios are presented in TABLE E and consist of
short-term investments, securities available for sale, and investment
securities. The securities portfolio was $3.3 billion at March 31, 1994, $3.0
billion at December 31, 1993, and $2.7 billion at March 31, 1993. The weighted
average maturity of the securities portfolio was 1.1 years at March 31, 1994,
compared with .8 years at December 31, 1993 and March 31, 1993. During the first
quarter of 1994, the average maturity of the securities portfolio was
lengthened, thus the yields on the portfolios also increased.
Short-term investments were $391 million at March 31, 1994 compared with
$803 million at December 31, 1993, and $791 million at March 31, 1993. The
decline in the balance reflects the reinvestment of certain proceeds from
maturing short-term investments into the securities available for sale and
investment securities portfolios.
Securities available for sale, consisting of debt securities, are stated at
market value in 1994, and at the lower or aggregate cost or market for previous
periods. Decisions to purchase or sell these securities as part of the Company's
ongoing asset and liability management process are based on management's
assessment of changes in economic and financial market conditions, interest rate
environments, the Company's balance sheet and its interest sensitivity position,
liquidity, and capital. At March 31, 1994, securities available for sale had
gross unrealized gains of $3 million and gross unrealized losses of $7 thousand.
The investment securities portfolio, principally debt securities, is stated
at amortized cost. This basis for valuation reflects management's intention and
ability to hold these securities until maturity. The Company's investment
securities portfolio was $2.3 billion at March 31, 1994, and $131 million at
March 31, 1993. The aggregate market value of the investment securities
portfolio was $2.2 billion and $131 million at March 31, 1994 and 1993,
respectively. The maturity of the investment securities portfolio was extended
to 1.5 years at March 31, 1994, compared with 1.3 years at December 31, 1993,
and .7 years at March 31, 1993. At March 31, 1994, gross unrealized gains were
$1 million and gross unrealized losses were $21 million.
The Company's investment securities portfolio contains state and local
government securities, asset-backed securities, industrial revenue bonds, U.S.
government securities and corporate securities. The total state and local
government portfolio was $174 million at March 31, 1994, with the single largest
issue being
12
<PAGE> 13
approximately $7 million. Of this total, $134 million were securities rated
investment grade and $40 million were unrated. All municipal securities are
subject to an internal review process that assigns a rating to the securities.
In the case of rated securities, the process verifies or adjusts the independent
rating. In the case of unrated securities only securities determined to be
equivalent to investment grade are purchased. Industrial revenue bonds are also
subject to a credit review process. While there is no ready market for the
Company's holdings of industrial revenue bonds, management has determined that,
based on periodic private placement quotes, their amortized cost is a reasonable
estimate of market value.
Trading account securities, consisting of debt securities, are recorded at
market value. Trading account gains were $465 thousand in the first quarter of
1994 compared with $633 thousand in the first quarter of 1993.

Deposits and Other Sources of Funds
The Company's attractive product line and extensive banking network of 202
full-service offices and 355 automated banking facilities generate significant
core deposits, which accounted for over 99% of total average deposits during the
first quarters of 1994 and 1993.
Core deposits include transaction accounts (demand, NOW, and savings
accounts), money market deposit accounts, and consumer time certificates.
Average core deposits were $8.5 billion in the first quarter of 1994, compared
with $8.6 billion in the first quarter of 1993. Average transaction accounts
(demand, NOW accounts, and savings) were $4.8 billion in the first quarter of
1994, compared with $4.4 billion in the first
13
<PAGE> 14
quarter of 1993 and $4.8 billion in the fourth quarter of 1993, reflecting
customers' preferences to maintain significant balances in lower-yielding
transaction accounts, thus having a positive impact on the Company's net
interest margin.
Average money market deposit and consumer certificates of deposit balances
were $3.7 billion during the first quarter of 1994, compared with $4.2 billion
the first quarter of 1993 and $3.8 billion in the fourth quarter of 1993.
Average corporate certificates of deposit in excess of $100 thousand (CDs),
which represent a small portion of the Company's total funding, were $37 million
in the first quarter of 1994, compared with $39 million in the first quarter of
1993.
Purchased funds increased to $715 million at March 31, 1994, from $508
million at December 31, 1993, and $120 million at March 31, 1993, as the
securities portfolio position was enhanced. This increased securities position
may be continued to take advantage of the Company's strong capital position.
While the effect of these actions increased net interest income, the net
interest margin decreased somewhat, reflecting the lower net interest spread on
these investment and funding actions.
Interest Rate Risk Management and Liquidity
BayBanks' Capital Markets Committee monitors and manages the overall on-and
off-balance sheet interest sensitivity position, short-term investments, and the
securities portfolios, funding, and liquidity. Interest sensitivity, as measured
by the Company's gap position, is affected by the level and direction of
interest rates and current liquidity preferences of its customers. These
factors, as well as projected balance sheet growth, current and potential
pricing actions, competitive influences, national monetary and fiscal policy,
and the national and regional economic environment, are considered in the asset
and liability management decision process.
The Company's interest sensitivity gap position in TABLE F is first
presented based on contractual maturities and repricing opportunities. In a
period of rising or falling interest rates this basis of presentation does not
reflect lags that may occur in the repricing of certain loans and deposits. For
example, the cost of certain interest-bearing core deposit categories may lag
changes in market interest rates, although the Company contractually could
change the interest rates on these deposits at any time. A management adjustment
provides for the expected repricing lags. The management adjustment also
recognizes that interest rate changes in these core deposit categories are not
as sensitive to changes in market interest rates.
In addition to the gap analysis presented in the table, the Company also
uses a simulation model under varying interest rate scenarios, including the
effect of rapid changes (both increases and decreases up to 200 basis points) in
interest rates on its net interest income and net interest margin. The Company's
policy is to minimize volatility in its net interest income and net interest
margin.
At March 31, 1994, the Company's adjusted gap position for the total
within-180-day period decreased from a positive gap position of $116 million at
December 31, 1993, to a negative gap position of $2 million at March 31, 1994.
The total within-one-year gap moved from a positive $132 million at December 31,
1993, to a negative $61 million at March 31, 1994. The Company believes its
overall management-adjusted gap is essentially neutral, and therefore the effect
of a change in market interest rates on net interest income should not be
significant.

</TABLE>
Liquidity, for commercial banking activities, is the ability to respond to
maturing obligations, deposit withdrawals, and loan demand. The liquidity
positions of the Company's bank subsidiaries are closely monitored by the
Company's Capital Markets Committee. BayBanks' retail network provides a stable
base of in-market core deposits and limits the need to raise funds from the
national market.
The Company's net liquidity position (short-term investments, securities
available for sale, and investment securities, less pledged securities, large
CDs, and purchased funds) increased to $2.3 billion, or 25% of total deposits
and borrowings, at March 31, 1994, compared with $2.2 billion, also 25% of total
deposits and borrowing at March 31, 1993. The Company also has additional
liquidity flexibility due to the relatively short average maturity (1.1 years)
of its combined short-term and securities available for sale portfolio.
The statement of cash flows provides additional information on liquidity.
The statement of cash flows includes operating, investing, and financing
categories. Operating activities included $21.3 million in net income for the
first quarter of 1994, before adjustment of noncash items. Investing activities
are primarily comprised of both proceeds from sales and purchases of short-term
investments and securities and net loan originations. Financing activities
present the net change in the Company's various deposit accounts, short-term
borrowings, and dividends paid.
Cash and cash equivalents were $633 million at December 31, 1993. During
the first quarter of 1994, net cash provided by operating activities was $122
million, net cash used in investing activities totaled $286 million, and net
cash provided by financing activities was $107 million. Cash and cash
equivalents were $576 million at March 31, 1994.
The parent company's sources of liquidity are dividend and interest income
received from its subsidiaries. The most significant uses of the parent
company's resources are capital contributions to banking subsidiaries when
appropriate and dividends paid to stockholders. In managing liquidity,
regulatory limitations on the extent to which bank subsidiaries can pay
dividends or supply funds to the parent company are taken into account. During
the first quarter of 1994 the parent company did not provide any capital to its
subsidiaries. Dividends received from bank subsidiaries were $6.1 million, while
no dividends were received from nonbank subsidiaries. The parent company paid
$6.6 million in dividends to its stockholders. At March 31, 1994 the parent
company had $70.4 million in cash, short-term investments, and other securities.
The parent company does not sell commercial paper and does not have any
revolving credit lines or short-term debt outstanding.

CREDIT QUALITY REVIEW
Overview
The Company continually monitors its loan portfolio. Employing a standard
system for grading loans, individual account officers assign their loans a
grade, or risk rating, and, if necessary, a specific loan loss reserve. An
independent Loan Review Department then reviews loan grades and specific
reserves. Any loan or portion of a loan determined to be uncollectible is
charged off. On a quarterly basis, senior management reviews the loan portfolio,
with particular emphasis on higher-risk loans, to assess the quality and loss
potential inherent in the portfolio. Also considered in this review are
delinquency trends and the adequacy of reserves. The size of the allowance for
loan losses, the related provision, as well as the adequacy of OREO reserves
reflect this analysis.
Nonperforming assets, presented in TABLE G (which exclude restructured,
accruing loans, and accruing loans 90 days or more past due), include
nonperforming loans and OREO and were $204 million at March 31, 1994, a 9%
decrease from $224 million at December 31, 1993, and a 40% decrease from $338
million at March 31, 1993. Nonperforming assets have continued the downward
trend that began in the first quarter of 1991. While the Company expects to
experience continued improvement in nonperforming assets, the pace of that
improvement will depend on many factors, including national and regional
economic conditions.

The decline in nonperforming assets, presented in TABLE H (which exclude
restructured, accruing loans and accruing loans 90 days or more past due), is
affected by successful workout activities that include property sales, payments
on nonperforming loans, and loans that qualify for return to accrual status.
These favorable resolutions were $34 million in the first quarter of 1994, or
15% of the beginning of the period balance. During the first quarter of 1994
additions to nonperforming assets were $21 million; additions to nonperforming
assets in the first quarter of 1993 were $31 million.

Other Real Estate Owned
OREO consists of foreclosed properties and in-substance foreclosures.
Foreclosed properties are being prepared for sale or are currently listed for
sale. The Company is also involved in managing in-substance foreclosures, taking
operating control to stabilize values while the properties are being prepared
for sale, or working closely with borrowers to obtain new equity.
OREO (net of a valuation reserve) declined by 13% during the first quarter
of 1993 to $99 million. The decline was primarily due to property sales of $21.5
million in the first quarter of 1994; property sales in the

OREO (net of a valuation reserve) declined by 13% during the first quarter
of 1993 to $99 million. The decline was primarily due to property sales of $21.5
million in the first quarter of 1994; property sales in the first quarter of
1993 were $22.0 million. The five largest OREO properties at March 31, 1994,
ranged from $5.2 million down to $3.2 million, with the majority of OREO
comprised of smaller value properties.
Restructured, Accruing Loans
The Company restructures credits with troubled borrowers if such
arrangements are likely to minimize losses the Company may otherwise incur on a
particular credit. Loans that have been restructured generally remain on
nonaccrual status until the customer has demonstrated a period of performance
under new contractual terms. Restructured, accruing loans were $13 million at
March 31, 1994, compared with $12 million at March 31, 1993.
Accruing Loans 90 Days or More Past Due
Accruing loans 90 days or more past due declined 5% to $49 million at March
31, 1994, from $52 million at December 31, 1993, and 39% from $80 million at
March 31, 1993 presented (TABLE J).
Of the $49 million in accruing loans past due 90 days or more at March 31,
1994, $18 million were residential real estate loans and $21 million were
instalment loans, which together represented 80% of the total. Residential real
estate and instalment loans by their nature include a large number of smaller
loans. Of the $18 million in such residential real estate loans, $15 million
were in owner-occupied properties. Commercial and commercial real estate
accruing loans 90 days or more past due at March 31, 1994, were $10 million,
compared with $28 million at March 31, 1993.

Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses
and is reduced by net loans charged off (TABLE K). Net loans charged off were
$12.3 million in the first quarter of 1994, compared with $16.0 million in the
first quarter of 1993. The provision for loan losses was $6.0 million in the
first quarter of 1994, compared with $11.5 million in the first quarter of 1993.
Since older problem assets are being resolved and the rate of emerging problem
assets continued to decline, the allowance for loan losses was not replenished
to the full extent of charge-offs. The allowance for loan losses was $165
million at March 31, 1994, and $188 million at March 31, 1993. While the overall
allowance declined, its coverage of nonperforming loans increased to 158% at
March 31, 1994, from 116% at March 31, 1993.

BayBanks paid a dividend in the first quarter of 1994 of $.35 per share.
BayBanks had reinstated its quarterly cash dividend in the first quarter of
1993, at an initial rate of $.20 per share; an equal amount was paid in the
second quarter of 1993. In the third quarter of 1993, BayBanks increased its
quarterly cash dividend to $.25 per share, which was also paid in the fourth
quarter of 1993. On April 28, 1994, BayBanks declared its second quarter
dividend at $.35 per share payable June 1, 1994.
IMPENDING ACCOUNTING CHANGE
In May 1993, the FASB issued Statement No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors
for Impairment of a Loan." This statement is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1994. Adoption of Statement No. 114 will require
changes in the disclosure of nonperforming assets. Loans currently reported as
nonperforming and in-substance foreclosures will be reported as impaired loans
in a note to the financial statements. Restructured loans, reported as
restructured, accruing loans prior to the adoption of Statement No. 114, will
not be regarded as impaired loans when the statement is adopted if they are
performing under the restructured terms. Restructured, accruing loans entered
into after the adoption of Statement No. 114 will be accounted for as impaired
loans. The amount of impairment will be determined by the difference between the
present value of the expected cash flows related to the loan using the contract
rate and its recorded value, or as a practical expedient in the case of
collateralized loans, the difference between the appraised value of the
collateral and the recorded amount of the loan. Any additional impairment will
be recorded as an adjustment to the existing allowance for loan losses account.
The adoption of Statement No. 114 is not expected to have a material effect on
the Company's results of operations or financial condition.
