INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Administrative Committee
Frontier National Corporation KSOP Plan
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits
of Frontier National Corporation KSOP Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 1999
and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for
the year then ended. These financial statements and schedules referred to below
are the responsibility of the Plan administrator. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at
December 31, 1999, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the
year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial
statements of the Plan taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for
purposes of additional analysis and for complying with the Department of Labor's
Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

KSOP PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1999
Note 1 - Establishment of the Plan
The Frontier National Corporation KSOP Plan (the "Plan") was established and
effective on January 1, 1999 (the effective date). The Plan consists of the
merging of the Valley National Bank 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan and Trust, First
National-America's Bank Profit Sharing Retirement Plan and Trust, and First
National-America's Bank 401(k) Plan and Trust. The merged plans are those of
wholly-owned subsidiaries of Frontier National Corporation (the "Company").
Note 2 - Description of the Plan
The following description of the Frontier National Corporation KSOP Plan
provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan
agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.
General - The Plan is a defined contribution 401(k) Employee Stock Ownership
-------
Plan established to provide benefits to the eligible employees of Frontier
National Corporation and it's subsidiaries. The Plan is subject to the
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").
Participation - Any employee is entitled to participate on January 1 or July 1
-------------
of a plan year following completion of one year of service (1,000 hours).
Participation in the Plan is voluntary.
Contributions - Participant's may contribute between 1% and 15% of compensation
-------------
subject to limitations set forth by the Plan. Investment of employee
contributions in the various funds is at the employee's discretion. The Company
will make a matching contribution equal to 25% of the first 4% of deferred
compensation invested in non-Company securities. For elective deferrals invested
in Company securities, the Company will match the employee deferral with 75% of
the first 15% of deferred compensation.
The Company may also make discretionary employer contributions. These are
allocated among all participants pro rata based on compensation.
To be eligible to receive allocations of both employer matching and employer
discretionary contributions, the participant must have completed at least 1,000
hours of service in the Plan year and be employed by the Company on the last day
of the Plan year.
Allocation of Benefits - Employer matching contributions and forfeitures are
----------------------
allocated to eligible participants accounts based upon the ratio of eligible
participant's compensation for the year to

FRONTIER NATIONAL CORPORATION
KSOP PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1999
Note 2 - Description of the Plan - Continued
total compensation of all eligible Plan members for the year. Investment income
and any gain or loss within each pool is allocated to each participant's account
based on each participant's pro-rata share of such pool, valued as of the
immediately preceding allocation date (last day of each calendar quarter). As of
each Plan anniversary date (last day of the Plan year), discretionary employer
contributions shall be allocated to the accounts of participants who have
completed one thousand hours of service with the employer during the Plan year
for which the contribution is made and is employed by the employer on the
anniversary date of such Plan year. Discretionary employer contributions are
allocated in the proportion that the compensation of each eligible participant
bears to the compensation of all eligible participants.
Vesting - Participants are immediately fully vested in their contributions plus
-------
earnings thereon. Upon a participant's attainment of normal retirement age (65),
death or permanent disability or the 5/th/ anniversary of the time the
participant commenced participation in the Plan, the participant will become
100% vested. In the event a participant terminates employment, vesting in the
employer's contribution is based on years of credited service as follows:
Years of Vested
Credited Service Percentage
---------------- ----------
Less than 2 0%
2 20%
3 40%
4 60%
5 80%
6 100%
Benefit Payments - It is the normal practice of the Company to make benefit
----------------
distributions as soon as administratively possible following the end of the
quarter during which participants separate from service. If a participant's
Vested Accrued Benefit exceeds $5,000, (or has ever exceeded $5,000 at the time
of any prior distribution), and such benefit is immediately distributable, such
benefit will not be distributed without the written consent of the Participant.
It is required that unless a participant elects otherwise, benefit distributions
are made in a lump sum not later than 60 days following the end of the Plan year
following the later of the participant's 65/th/ birthday, the 10/th/ anniversary
of the date on which participation commenced or the termination of employment.
In the event of the death of a participant prior to distribution, benefits will
be paid to a designated beneficiary in a lump sum. Distributions in the form of
employer securities are subject to the employers right of first refusal upon
future sale. The Plan also provides for withdrawals due to financial hardship.

Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting - The accompanying financial statements and schedules of the
-------------------
Plan have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
----------------
generally accepted accounting principles and the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 requires management of the Plan to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Administrative expenses - Administrative expenses not paid from Plan assets are
-----------------------
paid by the Company.
Investments - The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. Securities traded
-----------
on the national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price
on the last business day of the Plan year. Investments traded in the over-the-
counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date
are valued at the last reported bid price.
Tax Status - To date, the Plan has not received a determination letter from the
----------
Internal Revenue Service. However, the Plan administrator and the Plan's tax
counsel believe the Plan is designed to qualify as tax exempt under Section
401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Note 4 - New Accounting Literature
Statement of Position 99-3 - The Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued
--------------------------
Statement of Position ("SOP") 99-3, Accounting For and Reporting of Certain

participant directed investment programs. The statement was adopted for the 1999
financial statements.
Note 5 - Party-in-Interest Transaction
The Company, through its two subsidiary banks holds participant certificates of
deposits totaling $415,732 at December 31, 1999.
