REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Participants and
Administrative Committee of
the Continental Employees Savings
Incentive Plan and Trust
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets
available for plan benefits and the related statement of changes
in net assets available for plan benefits present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Continental
Employees Savings Incentive Plan and Trust at December 31, 1993
and 1992, and the results of its operations and the changes in
its net assets for the year ended December 31, 1993, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's
Administrative Committee; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We
conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental
information included in Schedules I through IV is presented for
purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the
basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected
to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Investments are stated at market value, except for investments in
contracts held with insurance companies which are stated at
contract value, and loans to participants which are stated at
cost. Contract value is cost plus accrued investment income.
Securities that are traded on a national exchange are valued at
the last reported sale price on the last business day of the
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 average of the last reported bid and ask prices.
The market value of the units in collective investment funds is
based upon quoted redemption values on the last business day of
the calendar year.
Realized gains or losses represent the differences between the
proceeds received and the market value at the beginning of the
year (or purchase price if acquired during the year) of
investments sold, net of brokerage commissions. The change in
market value during the year is reflected in the Statement of
Changes in Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits as the net
change in unrealized gains or losses on investments. All income
earned on collective investment funds, except for Continental's
Short-Term Investment Funds, is classified as unrealized or
realized gains or losses in the Statement of Changes in Net
Assets Available for Plan Benefits.
NOTE B - DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN:
The Continental Employees Savings Incentive Plan and Trust (the
Plan) covers substantially all full-time and part-time salaried
employees of Continental Bank Corporation (the Company) and its
subsidiaries and affiliates. All employees are eligible to
contribute to the Plan on an unmatched basis beginning the quarter
after their hire date. Matching contributions by the Company begin
the first quarter after the employee completes one year of service.
Under the Plan, each participating employee may defer up to 4% of
his or her base salary on a pre-tax basis, by directing the
Company to contribute to the Plan an amount equal to such
deferral. The Company makes a matching contribution of 50% of
this amount. The Board of Directors of the Company, at its
discretion, may also authorize an additional matching
contribution of up to 150% of the participants' contributions.
No such contribution was authorized in 1993.
<PAGE> 5
Any participating employee who elects to defer the full 4% of his
or her base salary may also contribute additional amounts not
exceeding 11% of base salary for a maximum pre-tax contribution
of 15%. Those employees designated as highly compensated according
to Internal Revenue Service regulations were restricted to a
maximum contribution of 10% until July 31, 1993, 7% from
August 1, 1993 to October 31, 1993, and 4% effective
November 1, 1993 in order for the Plan to pass the discrimination
test. The maximum allowable contribution by a participating
employee was $8,994 for 1993. Salary deferrals and contributions
under the Plan are held, invested, and disbursed by the Plan
trustee.
A participant's interest in the Company's contribution vests
immediately. Each participating employee may allocate both
current account balances and future contributions, monthly, in 1%
increments to the investment fund or funds selected and described
below. In addition, participants who have voluntarily suspended
contributions are able to re-enroll on a monthly basis.
Interest Income Fund: The assets of the Interest Income Fund are
invested primarily in guaranteed investment contracts issued by
insurance companies, but may also be invested in bank investment
contracts and other interest-bearing investments. This fund is
intended to provide a rate of return that is higher than
certificates of deposit and money-market investments. On
December 31, 1993, approximately 3,333 employees participated in
this fund.
Intermediate Bond Fund: The assets of the Intermediate Bond Fund
may be invested in bonds, notes, interest-rate futures and other
securities, and real estate investments that have a fixed income
return. The Intermediate Bond Fund is designed to meet
intermediate-term savings or investment objectives. On
December 31, 1993, approximately 2,103 employees participated in
this fund.
International Equity Index Fund: The assets of the International
Equity Index Fund are invested in 18 Morgan Stanley Capital
International (MSCI) country funds and are managed to closely
track the returns of the MSCI Europe, Asia, and Far East Index.
The investment objective of this fund is to provide long-term
capital appreciation. On December 31, 1993, approximately 1,472
employees participated in this fund.
S&P Midcap Index Fund: The assets of the S&P Midcap Index Fund are
invested in the equity securities of 400 middle-market companies
not included in the Standard and Poor's (S&P) 500 and are managed
to closely track the performance of the S&P Midcap Index. The
investment objective of the fund is to provide long-term capital
appreciation. On December 31, 1993, approximately 1,845 employees
participated in this fund.
<PAGE> 6
S&P 500 Index Fund: The assets of the S&P 500 Index Fund are
invested in a widely diversified portfolio of common stocks
intended to follow the performance of the S&P 500 Composite Stock
Price Index. The investment objective of the fund is to provide
long-term growth. On December 31, 1993, approximately 2,357
employees participated in the S&P 500 Index Fund.
Continental Bank Corporation Common Stock Fund: The assets of the
Continental Bank Corporation Common Stock Fund may be invested in
shares of the Company's common stock or any other security that is
a "qualifying employer security," as defined under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. At present, except for
short-term cash investments prior to stock purchases, the fund is
invested in the Company's common stock, which may be purchased on
the open market, in private transactions with holders, or directly
from the Company. Employees investing in this fund do not own any
Company common stock directly, but instead own a proportionate
share of the fund. On December 31, 1993, approximately 1,995
employees participated in this fund.
For each of the funds described above, purchased assets may take
the form of interests in collective investment trusts or similar
pooled funds, including units in various collective investment
funds of the Continental Investment Trust for Employee Benefit
Plans maintained by Continental Bank N.A., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company, for the collective investment of
qualified employee benefit plans.
Vested amounts of a participating employee under the Plan are
payable upon termination of employment. Under certain limited
circumstances, the Plan provides for withdrawals, limited to the
participating employee's salary deferrals, prior to termination of
employment and for interest-bearing loans. With certain exceptions,
there is a 10% penalty, payable in addition to ordinary income
taxes, on all early withdrawals and distributions from the Plan.
The Unemployment Compensation Amendments Act of 1992 requires that,
effective January 1, 1993, taxable distributions from qualified
plans are subject to 20% withholding, unless the participant has
the Plan rollover the distribution directly into an Individual
Retirement Account or other eligible retirement plan.
Administrative Expenses
All administrative expenses associated with the Plan are paid by
the Plan sponsor (the Company).
<PAGE> 7
NOTE C - INCOME TAX STATUS
As a qualified plan under the applicable sections of the Internal
Revenue Code, the Plan is exempt from federal income taxes. In
addition, contributions made by the Company, as well as
participating employees' pre-tax contributions and all investment
earnings, are not taxable income to the participating employees
until distribution or hardship withdrawal. In general, if a
participating employee receives distributions or hardship
withdrawals from his or her account, the value of what such
participating employee receives, offset by the excludable ratio
of after-tax contributions made prior to 1987 (up to the amount
not used previously as an offset against such distributions or
hardship withdrawals), will be taxable as ordinary income. Under
certain circumstances, a lump sum distribution may be taxed under
special income averaging rules. In addition, taxation may be
deferred if a distribution is transferred to certain other types
of qualified retirement plans.
The Tax Reform Act of 1986 made numerous changes in the taxation
of withdrawals and distributions to employees. Effective for
distributions made after 1986, favorable treatment of lump sum
distributions is limited to a one-time election of 5-year forward
averaging and only after the individual attains age 59 1/2.
Certain other transitional rules exist for those who attained age
50 before 1986. The 10% early withdrawal penalty applies, with
certain limited exceptions, to all pre-age 59 1/2 distributions
from any qualified plan.
NOTE D - BENEFITS PAYABLE TO PARTICIPANTS
On December 31, 1993 and 1992, benefit obligations of $644,000,
and $2,027,000, respectively, were payable to participants. For
financial statements, these amounts are included in net assets
available for plan benefits. This presentation of payables to
participants results in a difference in the net assets available
for plan benefits and the changes in net assets available for
plan benefits between these financial statements and the related
amounts in the Annual Return/Report of Employee Benefit Plan on
Form 5500.

was transferred from the Plan to a successor trustee account.<PAGE>
