Item 5. Other Events
On January 21, 1997, The Chase Manhattan Corporation (the
"Corporation") reported that net income for full year 1996 was $3.586 billion,
excluding merger-related restructuring costs, and was $2.461 billion including
merger-related costs. Net income in the fourth quarter of 1996 was $901 million,
excluding merger-related restructuring costs, and was $836 million including
merger-related costs.
Also on January 21, 1997, the Corporation announced that Edward D.
Miller, Senior Vice Chairman, will retire on April 1, and that Thomas G.
Labrecque, President and Chief Operating Officer, would assume leadership of the
Corporation's regional banking and nationwide consumer businesses as well as
information technology, operations and administration at the Corporation.
In connection with reporting its 1996 year-end and fourth quarter
results, management of the Corporation stated that (i) it currently expects the
Corporation to realize annual revenue growth, on an "operating basis" (that is,
on a basis that excludes special one-time items and the effects of
securitizations), of approximately 6%-8% in 1997, and (ii) it continued to
target as financial goals for the Corporation double digit operating earnings
per share growth in each of 1997 and 1998, a return on average common equity of
18% or higher by 1998, and an efficiency ratio in the low 50% range by 1998.
With respect to expenses, management indicated that the "underlying operating
noninterest expense" of the Corporation (that is, noninterest expense excluding
merger-related costs, foreclosed property expense, minority interest expense and
non-recurring items and before the effects of any merger-related cost savings)
is expected be approximately 5%-6% higher in 1997 than it was in 1996.
Management stated that it maintained its belief that the Corporation would
realize annual merger-related cost savings of approximately $1.2 billion by the
end of 1997 and $1.7 billion by the end of 1998.
With respect to credit quality, management indicated that it continued
to believe that the credit quality of the Corporation's overall commercial and
industrial portfolio would remain relatively stable in 1997; that it expected
the Corporation to continue over the year to take provisions that were equal to
net charge-offs; that, primarily as a result of growth in consumer loans, higher
delinquencies in credit card loans and lower recoveries in commercial loans, the
total provision in 1997 would be higher than in 1996; and that, specifically,
with respect to the Corporation's credit card portfolio, it expected credit card
net charge-offs, as a percentage of average managed credit card receivables, to
increase modestly in 1997.
Finally, with respect to the Corporation's capital policies, management
of the Corporation noted that the Corporation had purchased $1 billion of its
common equity during the fourth quarter of 1996. Management stated that it now
expected to purchase equity on a more accelerated time schedule than previously
thought, and that therefore it was likely that the previously-announced buy-back
program would be completed more quickly than previously anticipated. Management
reiterated its disciplined approach to the use of the Corporation's capital,
indicating that its current expectation is that the Board of Directors of the
Corporation would review the dividend on the Corporation's common stock in the
normal course in March 1997 and that management currently anticipates that the
dividend policy of the Corporation would continue to be generally to pay a
common stock dividend equal to approximately 25%-35% of the Corporation's net
income (excluding restructuring costs) and less preferred stock dividends.

Chase's Operating EPS Up 22 percent for 1996 and 9 Percent in the Fourth Quarter
New York, January 21, 1997 -- The Chase Manhattan Corporation today reported
that net income for the full year, before merger-related restructuring costs,
rose 20 percent to $3.586 billion from $2.979 billion. Primary earnings per
share for the year rose to $7.54 per share from $6.25 and fully diluted earnings
per share rose 22 percent to $7.43 from $6.09 in 1995.
Net income in the fourth quarter of 1996, before merger costs, rose 9
percent to $901 million from $827 million in the fourth quarter 1995. Primary
earnings per share were $1.89 compared with $1.73; fully diluted earnings per
share were $1.88 compared with $1.73 in the year-ago quarter.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
--------------------
- Operating revenue on a managed basis grew 5 percent when compared with the
strong 1995 fourth quarter and 9 percent for the year, exceeding Chase's 5
to 7 percent target range;
- Expenses declined 3 percent in the quarter, resulting in a one percent
decline for the year; Merger savings of $235 million for the quarter led
to annual savings of $555 million, above the original target;
- The provision for credit losses was $182 million for the quarter and $897
million for the year, reflecting continued strong asset quality;
- The Corporation repurchased $1 billion of its common equity during the
quarter under the terms of a stock buyback plan announced in October.
"Led by strong earnings across the full breadth of our businesses, Chase had
an excellent year and quarter," said Walter V. Shipley, chairman and chief
executive officer. "The Corporation exceeded 1996 performance goals while
executing the merger integration and putting in place a superior set of
franchises for long term growth."

<PAGE>
Including merger-related costs, net income for the full year was $2.461
billion compared with $2.959 billion for 1995. Primary earnings per share were
$5.02 compared with $6.20 in 1995; fully diluted earnings per share were $4.94
and $6.04, in 1996 and 1995, respectively. Fourth quarter 1996 net income,
including merger costs, was $836 million compared with $827 million in the
year-ago quarter. Primary earnings per share were $1.74 versus $1.73 and fully
diluted earnings per share were $1.74 and $1.73, in the 1996 and 1995 fourth
quarters, respectively.
The corporation's return on average common stockholders' equity, excluding
merger costs, for the 1996 full year was 18.7 percent compared with 16.3 percent
in 1995; return on average common stockholders' equity for the fourth quarter
was 18.1 percent compared to 17.3 percent in the year-ago quarter. The

continued strong activity in this area. Trust and investment management fees

Senior Vice Chairman Miller to Retire in April
NEW YORK, January 21, 1997 -- The Chase Manhattan Corporation
announced today that Edward D. Miller, senior vice chairman, will retire from
the company on April 1 to pursue a second career.
In announcing Mr. Miller's plans, Walter V. Shipley, chairman and
chief executive officer, said:
"Ed Miller has been an invaluable employee of this company and its
predecessor institutions for more than 35 years. He was central in implementing
both the Chemical-Manufacturers Hanover and Chase-Chemical mergers. He built our
regional and national consumer bank into a true powerhouse and positioned us in
the forefront of technological advances. I obviously want him to stay, but I
have to respect his wish, expressed to me over time, to choose a second career
while he was still in his mid fifties. Our highest regard and our warm good
wishes go with him in that endeavor."
Mr. Miller said:
"I've long had a desire to run something, either in another facet of
financial services, the public sector or in the non-profit area. I didn't feel
comfortable exploring those possibilities while still at the bank, so I decided
to call it a career in one field and consider my options while I'm relatively
young and in good health. With the merger completed, an exceptionally strong
management team in place and a very positive outlook for the future of the bank,
this is a particularly appropriate time for me to retire. At Walter's request, I
will be continuing my association with Chase as chairman of its Regional
Advisory Board."
Mr. Shipley said that Thomas G. Labrecque, in addition to his current
responsibilities as president and chief operating officer, would assume
day-to-day leadership of Chase's regional banking and nationwide consumer
businesses as well as information technology, operations and administration.
Mr. Miller, 56, began his banking career at Manufacturers Hanover in
1959. Following service in the U.S. Marine Corps, he returned to the bank in
1963 as a management trainee. After building and developing numerous and diverse
business units, including credit cards, consumer credit and the bank's branch
system, he was named executive vice president for retail banking in 1982.
In 1988, he was elected vice chairman and a director, adding
responsibilities for operations, technology, and information and transaction
services. Following the Chemical-Manufacturers Hanover merger in 1991, Mr.
