(a) Represents the acquisition of 22 former branches of First Heights Bank in
    Houston, Texas.
(b) The difference between assets acquired of $68 million and liabilities 
    assumed of $874 million was received in cash.  These funds were immediately
    invested in investment securities of various maturities and yields.  The 
    Company anticipates returning the loan-to-deposit ratio of its Houston 
    subsidiary bank to levels maintained prior to the First Heights transaction
    over a reasonable period of time while maintaining the Company's standards
    of acceptable credit risk.
(c) Includes proceeds received from the issuance of $50 million of 8 3/8%
    subordinated debentures by the Company in September, 1994, in connection
    with the acquisition of First Heights.  The debentures mature in 2004 and
    qualify as Tier II capital for regulatory capital computations.
