NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  
  
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  
  
     Central Fidelity Banks, Inc. ("Central Fidelity" or the "Company")   
and its subsidiaries operate within the commercial banking industry.   
The accounting and reporting policies used in preparing these financial   
statements conform to generally accepted accounting principles and to   
general practices within the industry. The consolidated financial   
statements include the accounts and results of operations of Central   
Fidelity and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. The   
Combined Balance Sheet includes the accounts of the bank subsidiaries   
only.  
  
ACCOUNTING CHANGES - As of January 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement   
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for   
Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions" (SFAS 106) for the Medicare   
carve-out health insurance coverage provided to its qualifying retirees.   
SFAS 106 requires that the expected cost of postretirement benefits be   
charged to expense during the period that eligible employees render such   
service.  
  
     During the first quarter of 1993, the Company adopted Statement of   
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes"   
(SFAS 109) retroactive to January 1, 1983. SFAS 109 changes the method   
of accounting for income taxes from the deferred method to the asset   
and liability method. The net cumulative effect of this change in   
accounting for income taxes was $1,948,000 as of January 1, 1983.  
  
     As of December 31, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial   
Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in   
Debt and Equity Securities" (SFAS 115). SFAS 115 requires investments   
to be classified as held-to-maturity, trading or available-for-sale   
securities.  
  
CASH FLOW INFORMATION - For purposes of the Statement of Consolidated  
Cash Flows, the Company considers amounts due from banks and money   
market investments which have original maturities of three months or   
less to be cash equivalents. During the years ended December 31, 1994,   
1993 and 1992, cash paid for interest was $319,628,000, $281,443,000   
and $288,955,000, and cash paid for income taxes was $41,372,000,   
$53,485,000 and $50,555,000, respectively.  During 1994, 1993 and   
1992, other assets increased as a result of loan foreclosures in the   
amount of $6,059,000, $40,408,000 and $22,737,000, respectively,   
representing non-cash investing activities for purposes of the   
Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows.  
  
MONEY MARKET INVESTMENTS - Money market investments are carried at   
cost, which approximates fair value. These assets are highly liquid   
short-term investments generally maturing within one year which   
arise from Central Fidelity's and its subsidiary banks' money   
market activities. They include the overnight investment of excess   
reserves, securities purchased under agreements to resell, and the   
investment in certificates of deposit of unrelated banks. Interest   
earned on money market investments is reflected as "Interest on   
money market investments" in the Statement of Consolidated Income.  
  
SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE AND INVESTMENT SECURITIES - When   
securities are purchased, they are classified as investment   
securities when management has the positive intent, and the   
Company has the ability at the time of purchase to hold them   
until maturity. These securities are carried at cost adjusted   
for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.   
Premiums are amortized (deducted) and discounts are accreted   
(added) to interest income on investment securities using   
methods that approximate the level yield method. At September   
30, 1993, all investment securities were reclassified as   
securities available for sale.  
  
     Securities held for indefinite periods of time but not   
intended to be held to maturity, are classified as available for   
sale and are accounted for at fair value. Unrealized gains and   
losses are reported in a separate component of shareholders'  
equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. These include securities   
used as part of the Company's asset/liability strategy and may be   
sold in response to changes in interest rates, prepayment risk,   
the need or desire to increase capital, satisfy regulatory   
requirements or other similar factors. Interest earned on securities  
available for sale is reflected as "Interest on securities available   
for sale" in the Statement of Consolidated Income. Gains and losses   
arising from the sale of securities available for sale are included   
in "Profits (losses) on securities available for sale and trading   
account securities."  
  
TRADING ACCOUNT SECURITIES - Trading account securities are carried   
at fair value. Interest rate futures, options, and forward contracts   
used in trading activities are carried at fair value.  These contracts,  
used in the management of interest rate exposure, are purchased and   
sold only on a matched-off basis. Interest earned on trading account   
securities is reflected as "Interest on trading account securities"   
in the Statement of Consolidated Income. Gains and losses arising   
from the sale of trading account securities and market adjustments   
are included in "Profits (losses) on securities available for sale   
and trading account securities."  
  
INTEREST RATE SWAPS - The Company utilizes interest rate swaps to   
manage its interest rate exposure. Income or expense associated with   
interest rate swap agreements is recognized on the accrual basis   
over the life of the swap agreement as a component of interest   
income or interest expense. Gains and losses on early terminations   
of interest rate swap agreements are recognized over the remaining   
life of the underlying asset or liability. The Company did not   
terminate any interest rate swap agreements prior to contractual   
maturity in 1994 or 1993.  
  
LOANS - Interest on loans is credited to income based on the   
principal amounts outstanding during the period. Origination and   
commitment fees and all related costs are deferred, and the net   
amount is amortized over the contractual or estimated life of the   
loans, if shorter.  
  
     The policy with respect to interest accruals specifies that   
interest will stop being accrued on any loan, except installment   
and bank card loans, when there appears to be no reasonable   
expectation that the borrower will be able to pay the interest   
up to date within a reasonable time period and the value of the   
collateral is not at least equal to the amount at which the loan   
plus all interest accrued is recorded. Interest income is   
recognized on these loans only when received in cash. A loan will   
remain on a nonaccrual status until the loan is current, as to   
payment of both interest and principal, and the borrower   
demonstrates the ability to pay and remain current. Since   
installment and bank card loan payments include both interest and   
principal, the policy with respect to installment and bank card   
loans requires that a loan be charged off when it is over 120 and   
180 days past due, respectively. Accruals of interest on these   
loans are not discontinued prior to charge off.  
  
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES - The allowance for loan losses consists   
of the cumulative effect of the provision for loan losses, less net   
loans charged off. The provision for loan losses charged to operating   
expense is the amount necessary, in management's judgment, to maintain  
the allowance at a level it believes sufficient to cover losses in   
collections of loans. The provision is based on such factors that,   
in management's judgment, warrant current recognition in providing an   
adequate allowance. Principal factors in management's analysis of the   
adequacy of the allowance are: the historical relationships among   
loans outstanding, loan loss experience and the current level of the   
allowance; a continuing evaluation of the present and anticipated   
future economic environment for the nation and for the various   
business sectors of the Company's trade area; and reviews of the loan  
portfolio quality by the regulatory authorities, external auditors,   
and the Company's loan review staff.  
  
PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT - Premises and equipment are stated at cost   
less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Additions, major   
replacements, and improvements to buildings and equipment are added   
to the asset accounts at cost.  
  
     Certain noncancellable leases, for the financing of premises   
and equipment, have been capitalized and are classified as premises   
and equipment in the accompanying balance sheets. Related amounts   
representing capitalized lease obligations are included in the   
accompanying balance sheets as a separate liability and are   
amortized using the interest method to allocate payments between   
principal reduction and interest expense. The initial carrying   
amounts represent the present value of the future rental payments,   
discounted at the lower of the incremental borrowing rate of the   
lessee or the interest rate implicit in the lease.  
  
     Depreciation and amortization are computed and charged to   
expense over the estimated useful lives of the assets, principally   
on a straight-line method. Rates of depreciation are based on the   
following lives: buildings, twenty to fifty years; leasehold   
improvements, five to twenty years; and furniture and equipment,   
three to fifteen years. Capital leases and leasehold improvements   
are amortized to expense over the terms of their respective leases   
or the estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever is   
shorter. Gains and losses on dispositions are reflected in   
operations. Maintenance, repairs and minor replacements are charged   
to expense.  
  
FORECLOSED PROPERTIES - Foreclosed properties, classified in "Other   
assets" in the accompanying balance sheets, consist primarily of real   
estate held for resale which was acquired through foreclosure on loans   
secured by real estate. Foreclosed properties are carried at the lower   
of cost or appraised market value less estimated disposal costs.   
Writedowns to market value at the date of foreclosure are charged to  
the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent declines in market value are   
charged to expense.  
  
INCOME TAXES - Central Fidelity accounts for certain income and expense   
items differently for income tax purposes than for financial reporting   
purposes. Provisions for deferred taxes are made in recognition of   
these timing differences.  
  
PENSION PLAN - The plan covers substantially all employees. Costs of   
the plan are determined by independent actuaries using the projected   
unit credit method. The plan is funded on a current basis to the extent   
deductible under existing federal tax regulations.  
  
STOCK OPTIONS - At the time options are exercised, the par value of the   
shares is credited to common stock, and the excess of the proceeds over   
the par value is credited to capital surplus. No charges or credits to   
income are made with respect to the options since the option price is   
the same as market value at the date of grant.  
  
EARNINGS PER SHARE - Earnings per share have been computed on the basis   
of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.   
The assumed exercise of stock options has not been included in the   
computations because the resulting dilution is not material.  
  
     On January 13, 1993, the Board of Directors of the Company   
declared a 3-for-2 stock split in the form of a dividend payable on   
February 22, 1993 to shareholders of record January 29, 1993.  
  
DIVIDENDS - Dividends are paid to the Company by its subsidiaries   
in amounts sufficient to cover corporate expenses and dividends paid   
to shareholders. Dividends are subject to the financial condition of   
the subsidiaries, regulatory limitations and management's judgment   
as to the desirability of utilizing alternative sources of funds.  
  
TRUST ASSETS AND INCOME - Assets held by one of the commercial   
banking subsidiaries in a fiduciary, agency or safekeeping capacity   
for customers are not included as assets in the accompanying balance   
sheets. At December 31, 1994, such assets amounted to $5.0 billion.   
Trust service income is recognized primarily on the accrual basis.  
  
RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain previously reported amounts have been   
reclassified to conform to current presentations.

     Central Fidelity and each of its subsidiaries are affiliates within the meaning of  
Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act. Accordingly, they are subject to the limitations  
specified in such section on the making of loans or extension of credit to, or purchase  
of securities under repurchase agreement from, any of the subsidiaries within the  
affiliate group. Therefore, substantially all of the net assets of the affiliate group  
are restricted from use by the Company in the form of loans or advances. Dividends,  
however, may be paid to the Company by its bank subsidiaries under formulas established  
by the appropriate regulatory authorities. These formulas contemplate that the current  
year earnings and earnings retained for the two preceding years may be paid to the Parent  
Company without regulatory approval. In 1995, the subsidiary banks can initiate dividend  
payments without said regulatory approvals of $100,524,000, plus an additional amount equal  
to their net earnings for 1995 up to the date of any such dividend declaration. In addition,  
the limitations on dividends paid by the Company on common stock to shareholders for the  
current and two immediately preceding years may not exceed consolidated net income of the  
Company and its subsidiaries for the same period.  
  
     Substantially all of the retained earnings of the Parent Company are represented by  
undistributed earnings of subsidiaries.

     The amortized cost and fair value of securities available for sale, at December 31, 1994 are  
shown below by maturity.  The classification of mortgage-backed securities was based on expected  
maturities, while contractual maturities were used for other debt securities. Expected maturities  
differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay  
obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

NOTE 5. LOANS  
  
     Nonaccrual loans (principally commercial and construction loans)   
totalled $67,534,000 at December 31, 1994 and $93,349,000 at December   
31, 1993.  
  
     Interest on nonaccrual loans not recognized was $6,171,000 in 1994,   
$5,794,000 in 1993 and $5,781,000 in 1992. Interest collected and   
included in the results of operations on such loans amounted to $596,000   
in 1994, $706,000 in 1993 and $376,000 in 1992.  
  
     In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries   
grant loans to directors and executive officers of the Company and to   
their associates. These loans are made on substantially the same terms,   
including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time   
for comparable transactions with unrelated persons and do not involve   
more than the normal risk of collectibility. The aggregate dollar amount   
of these loans was $8,154,000 and $7,776,000 at December 31, 1994 and 1993,   
respectively. During 1994, $1,091,000 of new loans were made and repayments   
totalled $713,000.  
  
     The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of   
Financial Accounting Standards No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for   
Impairment of a Loan" (SFAS 114) in May, 1993, and it was amended in   
October, 1994 by the issuance of SFAS 118. Effective January 1, 1995,   
SFAS 114, as amended by SFAS 118, requires that impaired loans within   
the scope of the statements be presented in the financial statements at  
the present value of expected future cash flows or at the fair value   
of the loan's collateral. The impact of adopting SFAS 114, as amended   
by SFAS 118, will not be material to the financial condition or results   
of operations of the Company.

Company and its subsidiaries. These leases expire at various dates to 2025, and most of the leases  
contain renewal options for periods ranging from 5 to 30 years. In addition, certain leases provide  
that the Company may elect to purchase the leased property at the expiration of the initial lease  
term. Some leases also contain escalation clauses whereby the Company's rental payments are adjusted  
proportionately with increases in the consumer price index.

NOTE 12. PREFERRED AND COMMON STOCK  
  
     The Company is authorized to issue two classes of preferred stock:   
200,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $100 per share; and   
4,000,000 shares of 1983 Preferred Stock, par value $25 per share.   
Both classes are issuable in series, and have such rights, including   
voting and conversion rights, preferences and terms as determined by   
the Board of Directors at the time of issuance.  As of December 31,   
1994, no shares of either class were outstanding.  
  
     The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of Common   
Stock, par value $5 per share, of which 39,324,228 shares were   
outstanding as of December 31, 1994. Each share of Common Stock also   
represents one preferred share purchase right ("Right") under the   
terms of the Company's Rights Agreement dated May 3, 1989, as amended   
and restated in its entirety on November 9, 1994 (the "Rights   
Agreement"). Each Right entitles its registered holder to purchase  
from the Company, after the Distribution Date (as defined in the   
Rights Agreement), one one-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior   
Participating Preferred Stock, par value $25 per share, for $110   
(the "Purchase Price"). The Purchase Price and the number of Rights   
outstanding, or in certain circumstances the securities purchasable   
upon exercise of the Rights, are subject to adjustment from time to   
time to prevent dilution in the event of a Common Stock dividend on   
or a subdivision or a combination into a smaller number of shares   
of Common Stock, or the issuance or distribution of any securities   
or assets in respect of, in lieu of or in exchange for Common Stock.

NOTE 13. Employee Benefit Plans  
  
     Central Fidelity has a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering   
substantially all full-time employees. The plan provides pension benefits that   
are based on the employee's compensation during the five years before retirement.  
The Company's funding policy is to contribute annually the maximum amount that  
can be deducted for federal income tax purposes.

     In determining the actuarial present value of the projected benefit obligation,  
the weighted-average discount rate used was 7.75% for 1994 and 1993,  
and rate of increase in future compensation levels used was 4.75% for  
1994 and 1993. The expected long-term rate of return on assets for 1994 and  
1993 was 9.00%.  
  
     The plan assets at December 31, 1994 included common stock of the Company having  
a market value of $5,020,000 or 11.3% of the total market value of the plan assets  
at that date.  
  
     The Company's pension plan provides that the benefits payable to retirees are based  
on years of service and levels of compensation. The Internal Revenue Code contains  
limits on the annual benefits that a retiree may receive from a qualified defined  
benefit plan. For 1995 the maximum amount that a qualified plan may pay out to a  
retiree is $120,000.  
  
     The Company maintains an unfunded nonqualified plan that enables retirees to receive  
pension benefits in accordance with the computational terms of the plan when those  
terms provide benefits in excess of the amounts payable under the IRS' qualified  
rules. In addition, there is an unfunded Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan  
which provides a benefit equal to 25% of the participating executive's salary.  
Benefits are payable for 20 years to the executive or to his estate upon his death.  
The table below sets forth these plans funded status and amounts recognized  
in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet.

     Under the provisions of its Stock and Thrift Plan, the Company matches at least  
50% of employee contributions to the plan. Additional matching contributions are  
made by the Company based upon attainment of defined earnings levels. The Company  
contributed $2,429,000, $2,148,000 and $1,842,000 in 1994, 1993 and 1992,  
respectively, as its matching share.  
  
     In 1992, the Company adopted a Stock Incentive Plan under which employees were  
awarded shares of the Company's common stock upon the attainment of growth in  
earnings per share objectives. Payouts occur only in stock upon termination of  
employment, retirement, long-term disability or death. The plan was terminated in  
early 1994. The cost to the Company  was $3,101,000 in 1993 and $2,694,000 in  
1992, respectively.  
  
     During the first quarter of 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial  
Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits  
Other Than Pensions" (SFAS 106) for the Medicare carve-out health insurance  
coverage provided to its qualifying retirees (the "Plan"). Participants in this  
Plan are retired employees and active employees who are age 45 and have completed  
10 full years of service.

     The assumed health care cost trend used to measure the expected cost of benefits under  
the Plan for 1994 and 1995 is 14%. This rate gradually declines to 6.5% for the year  
2004 and remains at that level thereafter. The discount rate used in determining the  
accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was 7.75% in 1994 and 8.5% in 1993. The  
Plan is not compensation based, accordingly, changes in participants' compensation  
have no effect upon the Plan. Should the health care cost trend increase by 1%, the  
service and interest cost and the accumulated benefit obligation would increase by  
$400,000 and $2,200,000, respectively.

NOTE 14. Stock Option Plans  
  
     The Company has four stock option plans which provide for the granting of options to  
key executives and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries to purchase shares  
of the Company's common stock at the fair value at date of grant. The 1986  
Incentive Stock Option Plan ("1986 Plan"), 1988 Incentive Stock Option Plan  
("1988 Plan"), 1991 Incentive Stock Option Plan ("1991 Plan") and the 1993  
Incentive Stock Option Plan ("1993 Plan") provide for the granting of stock options  
for 675,000 shares each for the 1986 Plan, 1988 Plan and 1991 Plan, and 750,000 shares  
for the 1993 Plan, of the Company's common stock.  
  
     Each option granted is exercisable within ten years from date of grant. The 1986  
Plan, 1988 Plan, 1991 Plan and 1993 Plan will terminate February 4, 1996, February 2,  
1998, March 12, 2001 and March 12, 2003, respectively.

NOTE 16. Off-Balance-Sheet Items, Commitments and Contingent Liabilities  
  
     In the normal course of business, there are outstanding various   
financial instruments which involve elements of credit and interest   
rate risk, to varying degrees, that are not recognized in the   
Consolidated Balance Sheets. These financial instruments include   
commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, interest   
rate swaps, options, and forward and exchange rate contracts.  
  
     At December 31, 1994 and 1993, the Company had outstanding loan   
commitments of $1,214,470,000 and $1,162,091,000, and standby letters   
of credit approximating $214,178,000 and $201,125,000, respectively.   
To meet the financing needs of its customers, the Company controls   
and monitors the credit risk of these financial instruments through   
credit approvals, limits, and the same credit policy procedures as   
it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.  No material losses are  
anticipated as a result of these transactions. The Company's loan   
portfolio is comprised of credit extensions principally to customers   
in the Commonwealth of Virginia.  
  
     The notional value of total interest rate swaps at December 31,   
1994 and 1993 approximated $994,500,000 and $998,000,000, respectively.   
To hedge against interest rate risk, the Company's swap portfolio   
consists of $850,000,000 of receive fixed-pay variable swaps which were   
used primarily to convert fixed rate borrowings to a variable rate and   
variable rate commercial loans to fixed rate, and $126,500,000 of pay   
fixed-receive variable swaps used to lock in certain fixed rate funding   
costs and convert certain fixed rate commercial loans to variable rate.   
In addition, the Company has also entered into interest rate swap  
agreements to accommodate the needs of commercial customers. In order   
to offset the interest rate risk of customer swaps, the Company has   
executed offsetting transactions with third parties. The notional amount   
of customer-related swap transactions was $18,000,000 and $23,000,000   
at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The fair value of total   
interest rate swaps was an unrealized loss of $29,500,000 and an   
unrealized gain of $17,600,000 at December 31, 1994 and 1993,   
respectively.  
  
     Financial derivatives may expose the Company to credit risk to   
the extent of the fair value gain of an instrument, should the   
counterparty default on its obligation to perform. The Company seeks   
to reduce credit risk by dealing only with highly rated counterparties   
and by setting exposure limits based on independent industry ratings   
from the major rating agencies and other relevant criteria.   
Furthermore, the Company uses bilateral netting agreements and  
collateral arrangements to reduce credit risk. Collateral is   
delivered by either party when the fair value of the transaction   
exceeds established thresholds of credit risk. At year-end 1994,   
the Company had net credit risk of $1.8 million to three   
counterparties. This exposure was below thresholds for receiving  
collateral. On transactions which had negative fair values, the   
Company delivered $15.2 million of securities to collateralize   
credit exposure to two counterparties in excess of threshold levels.  
  
     The Company also periodically enters into options, forwards and   
exchange rate contracts for trading purposes. Such amounts were not   
material in 1994 or 1993.   
       
     There are also legal proceedings pending against the Company   
and its subsidiaries arising during the normal course of business.   
In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel,   
liabilities arising from these proceedings, if any, would not have   
a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or   
results of operations.

NOTE 17. Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments  
  
     The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of  
each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate  
that value:  
  
Cash and due from banks and temporary investments  
     The carrying amount of cash and due from bank balances and temporary  
investments is a reasonable estimate of fair value.  
  
Securities available for sale and trading account securities  
     Fair values of securities are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.  
If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted  
market prices for similar securities.  
  
Loans  
     The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using  
the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with  
similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities, taking into  
consideration the credit risk in various loan categories.  
  
Deposits  
     The fair value of demand, interest checking, regular savings and money market  
deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value  
of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates  
currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.  
  
Short-term borrowings  
     The carrying values of federal funds purchased and securities sold under  
agreements to repurchase and other short-term borrowings are reasonable  
estimates of fair value.  
  
Medium-term notes, FHLB borrowings and long-term debt  
     The fair values for these borrowings are determined based on interest rates  
currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.  
  
Off-Balance-Sheet Items  
     The fair value of interest rate swaps is the estimated amount that the  
Company would receive or pay to terminate the swap agreements at the reporting  
date, taking into account current interest rates and the current  
creditworthiness of the swap counterparties.  
  
     The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated using the fees  
currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the  
remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the  
counterparties. For fixed rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the  
difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates.  
  
     The fair value of standby letters of credit is based on fees currently charged  
for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise  
settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date.  
  
     The carrying amount and fair value of commitments and standby letters of  
credit were not material at December 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993.  
  
     The fair values of financial instruments as of December 31, 1994 and  
December 31, 1993 are as follows:

responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements   
based on our audits.  
  
     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted   
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform   
the audits 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 audits provide a   
reasonable basis for our opinion.  
  
     In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred   
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial   
position of Central Fidelity Banks, Inc. and subsidiaries at   
December 31, 1994 and 1993, the results of their operations and their   
cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended   
December 31, 1994, and the combined balance sheet referred to above   
presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of   
the subsidiary banks of Central Fidelity Banks, Inc. at December 31,   
1994 and 1993, all in conformity with generally accepted accounting   
principles.  
  
     As discussed in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements,   
in 1993 Central Fidelity Banks, Inc. and subsidiaries adopted the   
provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement of   
Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for   
Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions", Statement of Financial

Summary

     1994 witnessed higher levels of consumer confidence which 
increased consumer spending and consequently produced strong credit 
demand and enhanced lending activities. The very strength that 
generated this loan demand fostered the fears of inflation and 
produced six increases in the federal funds rate which adversely
impacted the Company's net interest income and net interest margin. 
In 1994, net income was $84.9 million, a decline of 17.5% from $102.9 
million in 1993. On a per share basis, net income was $2.17, 
resulting in an 18.4% decline from the $2.66 for 1993.

     Net interest income increased 3.4% to $335.1 million in 1994. 
This growth was attributable to 7.5% higher average earning assets. 
Noninterest income declined 53.6% to $58.4 million compared to 
$125.8 million in 1993. Included in noninterest income for 1994 was 
a $28.7 million loss resulting from the sale of approximately $470 
million of fixed rate securities. The securities sale was driven by 
the Company's balance sheet restructuring effort to lessen the future 
exposure to rising interest rates. Excluding the effects of securities 
transactions in 1994 and 1993 and an $11.4 million profit on the sale 
of an affinity bank card portfolio in 1994, noninterest income for 
1994 increased 2.1% to $72.9 million. Noninterest expense increased 
9.8% to $245.2 million compared to $223.3 million in 1993, primarily 
due to higher costs associated with personnel, and occupancy and 
equipment expenses. Included in the 1994 noninterest expense were 
$7.4 million nonrecurring charges in employee relocation costs, other 
real estate costs, adjustments on bank franchise tax assessments and 
various other expense items.  The provision for loan losses was $24.4 
million, a decline of 69.4% from $79.5 million in 1993.

     Earning assets averaged $9.0 billion, up 7.5% compared to $8.4 
billion in 1993. On average, securities available for sale totalled 
$3.6 billion, for a decline of 9.6% when compared with total average 
securities portfolio of $4.0 billion in 1993. Money market investments 
declined 31.8% to an average of $125.4 million. Average loans grew 
25.2% to $5.3 billion with first mortgage residential real estate loans
producing the strongest growth while the consumer categories and 
commercial lending each registered solid growth.

     Interest-bearing liabilities averaged $7.9 billion, representing 
an increase of 6.3%. Interest-bearing deposits were $5.9 billion on 
average, up 1.3% over 1993, with consumer certificates of deposit 
accounting for virtually all of the growth. Other short-term 
borrowings, medium-term notes and Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings
contributed substantial growth in funding sources. The sales of 
medium-term notes and Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, averaging 
$245.3 million and $107.2 million, respectively, throughout 1994, 
accounted for the growth.
 
     Excluding the $102.2 million in unrealized losses on securities 
available for sale subject to SFAS 115, average shareholders' equity 
grew 11.3% to $715.9 million. The return on average shareholders' 
equity of 11.85% declined from 16.01% in 1993. The book value of 
common stock per share was $18.44 at December 31, 1994, compared to
$17.43 at year-end 1993, representing an increase of 5.8%. The 
closing price of the Company's common stock as of December 31, 1994 
was $24.25, which resulted in a market to book value ratio on that 
date of 132%.

TABLE 4  Analysis of Changes in the Components of Net Interest Earnings (Taxable Equivalent Basis)  
  
     Interest income and expense are affected by fluctuations in interest rates, by changes in the volumes  
of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, by the interaction of rate and volume factors, and  
by the mix of the categories of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The following analysis  
shows the direct causes of the year-to-year changes in the components of net interest earnings on a  
taxable equivalent basis. The rate and volume variances are calculated by a formula prescribed by the  
Securities and Exchange Commission. Rate/volume variances, a third element in the calculation, are  
not shown separately, but are allocated to the rate and volume variances according to their relative  
size. The details of rate and volume variances do not sum to the rate and volume variances on total  
interest earnings or total interest expense because of changes in the mix of interest-earning assets  
and interest-bearing liabilities from year to year.

TABLE 5  Average Balances and Interest Rates (Taxable Equivalent Basis)  
  
     The following table shows the average balance sheets for each of the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992.  
In addition,  the amounts of interest earned on earning assets, with related yields, and the interest paid on  
interest-bearing liabilities,  together with the rates, are shown. Loans placed on a nonaccrual status are included  
in the balances and were included in the  computation of yields, upon which they had an immaterial effect. Interest  
on earning assets is on a taxable equivalent basis,  which was computed using the federal corporate income tax rate  
of 35% for 1994 and 1993, and 34% for 1992.

Net Interest Income

      Net interest income, the primary source of the Company's earnings, 
is the amount by which interest and fee income earned on earning assets 
exceeds interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities.  Earning assets 
are comprised of loans, securities available for sale, investment 
securities, money market investments and trading account securities 
while interest-bearing liabilities consist of deposits and borrowings. 
Net interest income is impacted by the volume, mix, and the general 
level of interest rates among earning assets and interest-bearing 
liabilities.

     On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest income for 1994 was $343.0
million, a 2.7% increase over 1993. The growth in net interest income 
resulted primarily from higher levels of average earning assets. Average 
earning assets increased $632.1 million, or 7.5% over 1993, totalling 
$9.0 billion. The net interest margin for 1994 was 3.80%, reflecting a 
decline of 18 basis points when compared with 3.98% for 1993. The decline 
in net interest margin during 1994 was impacted by the higher than 
anticipated interest rates which lowered interest margins due to higher 
funding costs.

     Total loans rose 25.2%, or $1.1 billion to an average of $5.3 
billion over 1993. The growth in loans resulted from gains in all loan 
categories except construction lending. Continued demand for first 
mortgage residential real estate loans as well as increased consumer 
activities were contributing factors to the loan growth. Residential 
real estate loans averaged $1.4 billion, showing an increase of $550.6 
million, or 65.6% compared to $839.5 million in 1993, following a 
substantial gain of 111.2% in 1993. Installment loans averaged $764.8 
million, representing a 23.5% increase over the prior year. When 
compared with the 1993 levels on average, bank card, consumer second
mortgage, and commercial and commercial real estate loans registered 
increases of 20.0%, 17.5% and 15.6%, respectively. Construction loans 
declined 11.0%, averaging $294.7 million during the year. Securities 
available for sale averaged $3.6 billion, reflecting a decline of 9.6% 
when compared with the total securities portfolio for 1993. The decline 
in the securities portfolio resulted from strong loan growth and the 
sale of fixed rate securities, in an effort to reduce the Company's 
exposure to continued increases in interest rates. Money market 
investments, consisting of federal funds sold and securities purchased 
under agreements to resell, averaged $125.4 million, a decline of 31.8% 
compared to 1993. Trading account securities were flat compared to 
1993's level. The yield on average earning assets gained 4 basis points 
to 7.47%, due to the higher interest rate environment for 1994 and a
shift to a greater percentage of loans to total earning assets.

     In 1994, average interest-bearing liabilities totalled $7.9 billion,
having grown 6.3% from $7.4 billion in 1993. Core deposits averaged $6.5
billion, representing a 5.6% increase from the prior year. Consumer
certificates of deposit rose 11.0% to an average of $3.1 billion. 
Interest checking averaged $663.4 million, registering a 4.9% increase 
from the previous year. Regular savings, averaging $843.9 million, 
showed an increase of 3.3%. Money market accounts declined 7.7%, on 
average, compared to 1993. Certificates of deposit $100,000 and over 
declined 39.5%, to an average of $316.9 million. In 1994, Federal Home 
Loan Bank borrowings averaged $107.2 million. Medium-term notes averaged 
$537.7 million, an 83.9% increase, or $245.3 million over 1993. Federal 
funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase
averaged $1.1 billion, a 2.3% increase over 1993. Long-term debt and
capitalized lease obligations declined to $151.0 million and $8.3 million 
on average, respectively. The decline in long-term debt resulted from a 
$1.0 million note maturing in August. In 1994, the cost of interest-bearing
liabilities increased 29 basis points to 4.21%, following a decline of 72 
basis points to 3.92% in 1993, and was consistent with a rising interest 
rate environment.

     Table 5 presents the components of net interest income on a taxable
equivalent basis. Interest earned on certain tax-exempt loans and 
investment securities has been increased by an amount equivalent to the 
taxes that would have been paid on taxable assets at the federal 
statutory rate.

Loans

     Loans represent the highest yielding and largest component of 
earning assets. In 1994, total loans grew $1.1 billion, or 25.2% to 
an average of $5.3 billion, with all loan categories except construction 
lending recording strong gains. The loan growth reflected an increased 
demand in lending activities. The average yield on the loan portfolio 
declined 20 basis points to 8.37%, compared to 8.57% in 1993. This 
decline resulted from a change in loan mix and heightened price 
competition. The average prime rate was 7.083% in 1994 compared to 
5.926% in 1993.

     Commercial and commercial real estate loans averaged $1.8 billion,
representing a 15.6% or $248.0 million increase over 1993. The average 
yield was up 29 basis points to 7.96% compared to 1993, reflecting a 
higher average prime rate during 1994.  Construction loans averaged 
$294.7 million, which represented a decline of 11.0% in volume, after 
a 21.5% decline in 1993.

     Residential first mortgage loans totalled $1.4 billion, on average, 
an increase of 65.6% compared to 1993, following a substantial increase 
of 111.2% in 1993. Rising mortgage rates slowed growth in refinancing 
and new first mortgage residential loans culminating in December with 
the lowest home sales in 18 months. The loan growth was primarily in 
the adjustable rate mortgages and shorter term fixed rate products. 
The average yields on the residential first mortgage loan portfolio 
declined 43 basis points to 7.19% from 7.62% in 1993.

     Consumer second mortgage loans which consist of second mortgage 
loans and home equity lines of credit, averaged $509.2 million, a 17.5% 
increase over 1993. The average yield was down 19 basis points to 9.28%.
Installment loans grew $145.6 million to an average of $764.8 million, 
representing a 23.5% increase over 1993. Installment loan yields declined 
91 basis points to 7.64% in 1994. Bank card loans averaged $529.9 million, 
resulting in a 20.0% increase compared to 1993. The average yield on bank 
card loans represented a decline of 60 basis points to 13.12%. The declines 
in yields reflected aggressive promotional rates.

     There are no foreign loans within the portfolio or credits to finance
leveraged buyouts or other highly leveraged transactions.

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for 
Impairment of a Loan" (SFAS 114) in May, 1993, and it was amended in 
October, 1994 by the issuance of SFAS 118. Effective January 1, 1995, 
SFAS 114, as amended by SFAS 118, requires that impaired loans within 
the scope of the statements be presented in the financial statements at 
the present value of expected future cash flows or at the fair value of 
the loan's collateral. The impact of adopting SFAS 114, as amended by 
SFAS 118, will not be material to the financial condition or results
of operations of the Company.

Allowance/Provision for Loan Losses

     The allowance for loan losses represents management's estimate of 
an amount adequate to absorb potential future losses inherent in the loan
portfolio. In assessing the adequacy of the allowance, management relies
predominately on its ongoing review of the lending process and the risk
characteristics of the portfolio in the aggregate. Among other factors,
management considers the Company's loan loss experience, the amount of 
past-due and nonperforming loans, current and anticipated economic 
conditions, and the estimated current values of collateral securing 
loans in assessing the level of the allowance for loan losses.

     While it is the Company's policy to charge off in the current 
period loans for which a loss is considered probable, there are 
additional risks of future losses which cannot be quantified precisely 
or attributed to particular loans or classes of loans. Because these 
risks include the state of the economy as well as conditions affecting 
individual borrowers, management's judgment of the allowance is 
necessarily approximate and imprecise. It is also subject to regulatory 
examinations and determinations as to its adequacy.

     At December 31, 1994, the allowance for loan losses was $110.0 
million, or 1.91% of loans, reflecting a 4.8% increase, or $5.0 million, 
compared to $105.0 million or 2.18% of loans at December 31, 1993. The 
level of allowance for loan losses was impacted by the increase in loan 
volume and continued improvement in credit quality. The provision for 
loan losses totalled $24.4 million for 1994, a decline of $55.2 million 
compared to $79.5 million in 1993. The decline in the provision is 
consistent with comparable declines in the charge-offs from
year to year. Net charge-offs amounted to $19.4 million for 1994, 
compared with $76.3 million for 1993. The ratios of provision for loan 
losses and net charge-offs to average loans declined from 1.87% and 
1.80% for 1993 to .46% and .36% for 1994, respectively. Table 9 provides 
an analysis of the allowance for loan losses for the years 1990 through 
1994, including gross charge-offs and recoveries for the five year period.

     Nonperforming assets as of December 31, 1994 were $90.3 million or 
.90% of total assets compared to $132.1 million or 1.37% of total assets 
a year ago. At December 31, 1994, nonperforming assets were 1.56% of 
loans and foreclosed properties, compared to 2.72% at December 31, 1993. 
The lower level of nonperforming assets was a result of improved real 
estate markets across the Commonwealth of Virginia and persistent success 
in problem loan resolution. At December 31, 1994, the allowance for loan 
losses to nonperforming assets was 121.8% compared to 79.5% at December 
31, 1993. Table 13 shows the distribution of nonperforming assets by 
geographic region and loan category.

TABLE 10  Allocated Allowance for Loan Losses  
  
     The allowance for loan losses is a general allowance applicable to all loan categories; however, management has  
allocated the allowance to provide an indication of the relative risk characteristics of the loan portfolio. The  
allocation is based on the same judgmental criteria discussed earlier in determining the level of the allowance and  
should not be interpreted as an indication that charge-offs in 1995 will occur in these amounts, or proportions, or  
that the allocation indicates future trends. The allocation of the allowance at December 31 for the years indicated and  
the ratio of the related outstanding loan balances to total loans are as follows:

Securities Available for Sale 
 
     At December 31, 1994, the Company had $3.5 billion in securities 
available for sale, compared with $4.1 billion at year-end 1993.  The 
decrease was attributable to the Company's decision to allocate a greater 
portion of earning assets to loans.
 
     With the adoption of SFAS No. 115 as of December 31, 1993, the 
Company has classified substantially all of its securities as available 
for sale and reported them at fair value.  At year-end 1994, the fair 
value of securities available for sale was $157.3 million lower than the 
amortized cost.  This represents a decline from year-end 1993, when the 
fair value of securities available for sale exceeded amortized cost by 
$70.5 million.  These unrealized gains and losses are reported on the 
balance sheet as a separate component of shareholders' equity, net of 
deferred tax provision.  However, such unrealized gains and losses are 
excluded from the calculation of regulatory capital. 
 
     While the Federal Reserve raised the federal funds rate six times 
for a total of 250 basis points in 1994, the rise in market rates was 
even greater in the short and intermediate part of the yield curve where 
most of the securities available for sale were concentrated. During the 
fourth quarter, the Company restructured a portion of its securities 
portfolio in order to reduce exposure to further increases in interest 
rates.  A total of approximately $470 million of U.S. Treasury and 
mortgage-backed securities were sold, resulting in pre-tax losses of 
$28.7 million.  The majority of the proceeds were invested in higher 
yielding adjustable rate mortgage securities, and the remainder of the 
proceeds were used primarily to reduce short-term borrowings. Other 
portfolio activity in 1994 contributed $7.4 million in net realized 
gains in the first quarter and $4.4 million in realized losses in the 
third quarter. 
 
     The composition of the securities portfolio changed in 1994 to 
increase the weighting of mortgage-backed securities. Holdings in the 
mortgage sector, including collateralized mortgage obligations, 
increased to 67% of the portfolio at December 31, 1994, compared to 
50% at December 31, 1993.  Holdings of U.S. Treasury securities 
declined to 12% of the portfolio from 31%.  The biggest change within 
the mortgage sector was the emphasis on adjustable rate mortgage 
securities, which grew from 2.7% of total securities to 22.8%. 
 
     The average yield earned on securities portfolio in 1994 was 
6.23%, compared with 6.42% in 1993.  The expected weighted average life 
of the portfolio at the end of 1994 was 4.4 years, compared to 3.3 years 
at the end of 1993. This lengthening is largely a result of the shift to 
adjustable rate mortgage securities, which have longer weighted average 
lives than the securities replaced. Expectations of slower prepayment 
activity on mortgage-backed securities also extended the weighted 
average life of the portfolio during 1994.

Asset/Liability Management 
 
     The purpose of Asset/Liability analysis at Central Fidelity is 
the effective management of interest rate risk (IRR) through the proper 
control over lending, investment, funding and off-balance-sheet 
activities.  The Asset/Liability Committee meets monthly to review the 
following topics:  economic conditions, interest rate trends, loan 
strategies, investment strategies, funding strategies, interest rate 
risk, liquidity, off-balance-sheet strategies and earnings forecasts. 
 
     The primary tool for IRR measurement is an earnings simulation 
model which has been used and refined over a period of years. The model 
projects changes to the balance sheet and earnings over two twelve-month 
periods using four standard interest rate scenarios:  1) a base case 
scenario which is management's expected path of interest rates, 2) an 
immediate shock of 100 basis points over the base case, 3) an immediate 
decline of 100 basis points from the expected case, and 4) no change in 
rates.  Policy requires that projected earnings not vary more than 10% 
from the base rate scenario over the first twelve-month horizon. 
 
     In addition to model simulation, the Company also uses a static 
gap report to measure the Company's general exposure to repricing risk 
at a point in time.  As 1994 unfolded, the Company recognized that the 
pace of interest rate increases was faster than expected, and it took 
steps to reduce its exposure to rising rates. These actions included 
increasing the volume of longer term retail CD's and restructuring the 
securities portfolio as discussed above under the caption "Securities 
Available for Sale."  As a result, the one year cumulative gap was
reduced from a negative 26.15% of earning assets at year-end 1993 to 
negative 11.96% at year-end 1994 as shown in Table 20 on page 47.  The 
Company anticipates that actions will be taken during 1995 to further 
reduce the Company's potential exposure to rising interest rates.

Off-Balance-Sheet Derivatives 
 
     In the context of its asset/liability management, the Company is 
a limited end-user of off-balance-sheet financial derivatives as a 
cost-efficient vehicle for managing interest rate sensitivity.  Interest 
rate swaps have been the main derivative instrument used to modify the 
repricing characteristics of various balance sheet assets and liabilities. 
The interest rate swaps entered into by the Company are essentially 
commitments to participate in cash settlements with a counterparty at 
various future dates as agreed to in the swap contract. These cash 
settlements result from movements in interest rates and are based on 
differences in specific rate indexes as applied to the notional 
principal amount of the contract.   
 
     The notional amount of the Company's off-balance-sheet swap 
portfolio was $976.5 million and $975.0 million at December 31, 1994 and 
1993, respectively. The related fair value or unrecognized gains (losses) 
of these derivative financial instruments was ($29.5) million and $17.6 
million at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. As shown on Table 17,
the swap portfolio consists principally of contracts wherein the Company 
receives a fixed rate of interest and pays a variable rate, typically 
three-month LIBOR. 
 
     During 1992 and 1993, the Company employed financial derivatives in 
its strategy of increasing liability sensitivity, which boosted earnings 
in an environment of declining interest rates.   The Company entered into 
interest rate swaps to receive a fixed rate of interest and pay a variable 
rate.  In the implementation of this strategy, the use of off-balance-sheet 
derivatives was limited compared to the size of various on-balance-sheet 
instruments, namely fixed rate securities and short-term borrowings, which 
were the predominant vehicles for pursuing liability sensitivity.  When 
interest rates began rising in 1994, the Company sought to reduce its 
liability sensitivity and entered into interest rate swaps to pay a fixed 
rate and receive a variable rate.   
 
     Market values of derivatives transactions fluctuate based upon 
movements in the underlying financial indices such as interest rates.  
Market values are monitored on a monthly basis through external pricing 
mechanisms and then tested by using internal calculations.  The Company's 
objective measurement system together with risk limits and timely 
reporting to senior management help to mitigate the possibility of any 
gain or loss recognition on the Company's interest rate swaps. In the 
event that a derivative product were terminated prior to its contractual 
maturity, it is the Company's policy to recognize the resulting gain or 
loss over the remaining life of the underlying hedged asset or liability. 
In 1994 and 1993, the Company did not terminate any derivatives 
transactions prior to contractual maturity. Unrecognized gains and losses 
as of December 31, 1994 are noted in Table 17. 

     Financial derivatives may expose the Company to credit risk to the 
extent of the fair value gain of an instrument, should the counterparty 
default on its obligation to perform.  The Company seeks to reduce credit 
risk by dealing only with highly rated counterparties and by setting 
exposure limits based on independent industry ratings from the major 
rating agencies and other relevant criteria.  Furthermore, the Company 
uses bilateral netting agreements and collateral arrangements to reduce 
credit risk.  Collateral is delivered by either party when the fair value
of the transaction exceeds established thresholds of credit risk.  At 
year-end 1994, the Company had net credit risk of $1.8 million to three 
counterparties. This exposure was below thresholds for receiving 
collateral.  On transactions which had negative fair values, the Company 
delivered $15.2 million of securities to collateralize credit exposure 
to two counterparties in excess of threshold levels. 

     The Company has also entered into a small number of interest rate 
swap agreements to accommodate the needs of commercial customers.  In 
order to offset the interest rate risk of customer swaps, the Company 
has executed offsetting transactions with third parties.  The notional 
amount of customer-related swap transactions was $18.0 million and 
$23.0 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.   
 
     The Company intends to continue using off-balance-sheet financial 
derivatives as a limited end-user in the prudent management of interest 
rate sensitivity.

Deposits

     Total deposits averaged $6.8 billion, representing a 2.1% increase 
in 1994. When compared with 1993, core deposits rose $344.5 million, or 
5.6% to an average of $6.5 billion in 1994 with consumer certificates of 
deposit accounting for virtually all of the growth. The slower growth in 
core deposits was due primarily to lower rates paid on bank deposits in 
a generally lower interest rate environment particularly during the first 
half of 1994.

     In 1994, consumer certificates of deposit represented the largest 
growth in core deposits, increasing $307.3 million, or 11.0%, averaging 
$3.1 billion. The biggest increases in consumer certificates of deposit 
were in maturities ranging from one to two years. Interest checking and 
regular savings averaged $663.4 million and $843.9 million, increasing 
4.9% and 3.3%, respectively. Money market accounts showed a decline of 
7.7%, averaging $1.0 billion.  Table 18 shows the components of total 
average deposits for the past five years.

     The Company's asset funding strategy focuses primarily on core 
deposit growth. Central Fidelity's share of total core deposits in the 
Commonwealth of Virginia was 12.19% as of September 30, 1994, ranking 
the Company third in market share. During 1994, certificates of deposit 
$100,000 and over decreased 39.5% to an average of $316.9 million. Table 
19 shows a maturity schedule for certificates of deposit $100,000 and 
over at year-end 1994.

Table 20  Interest Sensitivity Analysis

     Interest sensitivity management is the process of developing objectives, goals and strategies to manage the Company's
assets and liabilities. Its purpose is to maintain a managed balance in interest sensitive assets and liabilities,
those which either mature within a certain time period or where the related interest rate can be adjusted or repriced
within a specified time period prior to maturity. The objective of interest sensitivity management is to provide
flexibility in controlling the response of both rate sensitive assets and liabilities to wide and frequent fluctuations
in market rates of interest so that the effect of such swings on net interest income is minimized. The most important
part of this objective is to maximize earnings while keeping risks within defined limits.

     The interest sensitivity position is indicated by the volume of rate sensitive assets, less rate sensitive 
liabilities. This difference is generally referred to as the interest sensitivity gap. The nature of the gap indicates how 
future interest rate changes may affect net interest income. Depending on the perception as to whether interest rates will
rise or fall, the objective is to maintain the gap within a designated range. A negative gap, for example, should
generally have a favorable impact on net interest income when interest rates are declining, as more liabilities than
assets would be repriced at lower interest rates.  The table below shows the Company's interest sensitivity position at
December 31, 1994.

Noninterest Income

     Noninterest income was $58.4 million for 1994, a 53.6% decrease 
when compared with $125.8 million for 1993. The decline in noninterest 
income was due primarily to a major restructuring of the securities 
portfolio that resulted in securities losses of $28.7 million in 1994, 
as compared to $54.4 million profits on securities trading transactions 
in 1993.  The sale of approximately $470 million of fixed rate securities 
in 1994 was designed to lessen the future exposure to rising interest 
rates. The net proceeds were reinvested in higher yielding adjustable 
rate securities and also used to reduce short-term borrowings. A 
significant item contributing to total noninterest income during the 
first quarter of 1994 was an $11.4 million gain recognized from the sale 
of an $80.3 million affinity bank card portfolio. Excluding the impact 
of securities transactions in 1994 and 1993 and nonrecurring income in 
1994, noninterest income grew 2.1% for the year.

     Trust income and deposit fees and charges for 1994 grew 2.2% and 
1.9%, respectively.  Other income, excluding the sale of bank card 
receivables, was up 2.3% with a modest increase in commissions on 
annuity and mutual fund products.

past five years.

Noninterest Expense

     Noninterest expense for 1994 was $245.2 million, a 9.8% increase 
over $223.3 million for 1993. Noninterest expense increased 6.5% after 
eliminating the $7.4 million nonrecurring charges in several categories. 
These charges included $.5 million in employee relocation costs, $3.3 
million in other real estate costs, a $3.1 million adjustment to prior 
years' bank franchise tax assessments, and $.5 million in various other 
expense items.

     Absent the nonrecurring expense items, personnel expense increased 
9.7%, resulting primarily from higher expense relating to personnel and 
employee benefits. Occupancy and equipment expense increased 7.5%. FDIC 
insurance premiums were up modestly, representing a 2.0% increase to 
$14.9 million. Other expense increased 17.2%, paced by higher marketing, 
bank card promotions and the write-off of certain software systems.

Liquidity
 
     The Company's liquidity is derived from both assets and liabilities.  
Cash flows are managed to determine the availability of funds to support 
loan growth or declines in deposits and to ensure adequate reserves to 
meet any unanticipated need for funds.  Prudent funds management values 
the participation in various markets based on relative costs and term 
structures. In 1994, Central Fidelity's bank note program was increased 
from $600 million to $1 billion and the Bank joined the Federal Home Loan 
Bank of Atlanta to further enhance these objectives. 
 
The two primary sources of asset liquidity are money market investments 
and securities available for sale with a maturity or expected weighted 
average life of less than one year.  As of December 31, 1994, the fair 
value of these assets were $198.3 million and $241.3 million, 
respectively, as compared to balances of $194.6 million and $563.0 
million, respectively, at December 31, 1993.
 
     Federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements, and large 
denomination certificates of deposit provide the primary sources of 
shorter-term wholesale funding. Medium-term funding is primarily 
generated from the bank note program and FHLB borrowings.  As of 
December 31, 1994, $561.5 million of the bank note program was 
outstanding and FHLB borrowings were $236.5 million.  The total 
amount scheduled to mature in 1995 for both sectors is $309.3 million.

Capital Resources

     At December 31, 1994, total shareholders' equity was $725.3 
million, compared with $680.3 million for the same period in 1993, 
representing a 6.6% increase after excluding the unrealized gains or 
losses on securities available for sale subject to SFAS 115. The 
contributing factors to the equity increase were primarily due to the 
$41.0 million in earnings after dividends and also from the issuance of 
common stock through stock option exercises of $4.0 million. During 1994, 
cash dividends declared on common stock at an annual rate of $1.12 per 
share represented a payout ratio of 51.6%.

     At year-end 1992, the Federal Reserve Board adopted final risk-based
capital guidelines for bank holding companies and banks to assist in the
assessment of capital adequacy. The risk-based capital guidelines 
significantly revised the definition of capital and established minimum 
capital standards in relation to assets and off-balance-sheet exposures, 
as adjusted for credit risks. The final minimum guideline for the ratio 
of total capital to risk-weighted assets is 8%. At least 4% of the total 
risk-based capital is to be composed of common equity net of goodwill and 
other intangibles (" Tier 1 capital"). The remainder may consist of 
subordinated debt, other preferred stock and an allowable portion of 
allowance for loan losses ("Tier 2 capital"). Table 23 shows the 
components of risk-based capital at December 31, 1994 and 1993.

     In addition, the Federal Reserve established minimum leverage ratio
guidelines for bank holding companies. These guidelines provided for a 
minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to total average quarterly assets, less 
goodwill and other intangibles of 3% for bank holding companies that meet 
certain specified criteria, including having the highest regulatory rating. 
All other bank holding companies generally are required to maintain a 
leverage ratio of at least 3% plus an additional cushion of 100 to 200 
basis points.  Furthermore, the Federal Reserve has proposed a "tangible 
Tier 1 leverage ratio" in evaluating proposals for expansion or new 
activities. The tangible Tier 1 leverage ratio is the ratio of Tier 1 
capital less all intangibles, to total tangible assets.

     At December 31, 1994, Central Fidelity's risk-based capital and 
leverage ratios exceeded the Federal Reserve's minimum guidelines. Central 
Fidelity's Tier 1 and total risk-based capital were $694.3 million and 
$928.4 million at December 31, 1994, as compared to $646.9 million and 
$870.4 million at year-end 1993, respectively. At December 31, 1994, the 
ratios of Tier 1 and total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets 
were 10.36% and 13.85%, compared to 11.06% and 14.88%, respectively, at 
December 31, 1993. The leverage ratio was 7.04% at December 31, 1994, 
compared to 7.10% at December 31, 1993.

     Based upon the risk-based capital and leverage requirements, Central
Fidelity's capital structure places it well above the Federal Reserve 
Board's guidelines and in the well capitalized category when measured 
against FDIC criteria. The Company will continue to review and monitor 
the asset mix and pricing, and other areas determined to be most affected 
by these capital requirements.

Earnings and Balance Sheet Analysis
1993 Compared to 1992

Net Interest Income

     On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest income for 1993 was $333.9
million, representing an increase of 9.3% over 1992. The growth in net 
interest income resulted primarily from higher levels of average earning 
assets. The net interest margin for 1993 was 3.98% compared with 4.40% 
for 1992, reflecting a decline of 42 basis points. The decline in net 
interest margin during 1993 was caused by the lower rate environment and 
heavy prepayments on premium rate mortgage-backed securities which 
reduced spread income.

     In 1993, total average earning assets grew 20.9%, or $1.5 billion, 
to $8.4 billion. Average loans rose 13.9%, totalling $4.3 billion in 1993. 
The growth in loans resulted from continued strong demand for first
mortgage residential real estate loans as well as accelerated growth of 
other consumer loan activity. Average residential real estate loans 
gained a substantial 111.2%, or $442.0 million, to $839.5 million in 1993 
compared to $397.5 million in 1992. Installment loans averaged $619.2 
million, a 10.7% increase over the prior year. When compared with the 
1992 levels on average, other loan categories, including consumer second 
mortgage, bank card and commercial and commercial real estate loans 
registered increases of 10.0%, 6.5% and 2.7%, respectively. Average 
construction loans declined 21.5% during the year. Securities available
for sale combined with investment securities averaged $4.0 billion, 
reflecting an increase of 28.2% over 1992. Money market investments, 
consisting of federal funds sold and securities purchased under 
agreements to resell, averaged $184.0 million, an increase of 52.1% 
over 1992. Average trading account securities declined 20.0% in 1993. 
The yield on average earning assets declined 109 basis points to 7.43%, 
indicating the lower rate environment which prevailed during 1993.

     In 1993, average interest-bearing liabilities totalled $7.4 billion,
having grown 20.3% from $6.2 billion in 1992. Core deposits averaged 
$6.2 billion, representing an increase of 10.1% from the prior year. 
Regular savings averaged $816.8 million, registering a 46.6% increase 
from the previous year. Interest checking and consumer certificates, 
averaging $632.4 million and $2.8 billion,  showed increases of 21.6% 
and 6.8%, respectively. Average money market accounts declined 7.6% 
compared to 1992. In 1993, average certificates of deposit $100,000 
and over rose 64.4%, to $523.5 million. Federal funds purchased and 
securities sold under agreements to repurchase averaged $1.1 billion, 
an 18.1% increase over 1992. Other short-term borrowings and long-term
debt grew significantly to $318.8 million and $154.9 million from 
$29.3 million and $24.9 million, respectively. The increases were due 
primarily to the issuance of medium-term and subordinated notes in the 
amounts of $411.5 million and $150.0 million, respectively. In 1993, 
the cost of interest-bearing liabilities declined 72 basis points to 
3.92%, reflecting generally lower interest rates and a bias toward 
shorter maturity instruments.

Loans

     In 1993, average loans totalled $4.3 billion compared to $3.7 
billion in the prior year, representing an increase of 13.9%, following 
a modest increase of 3.4% in 1992. The loan growth reflected an improved 
demand in consumer lending  throughout the year and a rise in commercial 
lending activity during the fourth quarter of 1993. The average yield on 
the loan portfolio declined 99 basis points to 8.56%, indicating the 
generally lower rate environment and heightened competition in 1993. The 
average prime rate was 5.926% in 1993 compared to 6.25% in 1992.

     Commercial and commercial real estate loans grew a modest 2.7% to 
an average of $1.6 billion. The average yield was 7.67%, a decline of 62 
basis points compared to 1992, reflecting the general decline in interest 
rates and intensified competition during 1993. Construction loans were 
impacted by the continued weakness in real estate values. Construction 
loans averaged $331.2 million, representing a decline in volume of 21.5%.

     Residential first mortgage loans grew a substantial 111.2% to an 
average $839.5 million in 1993. The magnitude of this growth during 1993 
was attributable to the refinancing of first mortgage residential loans 
and increased home sales fostered by the lowest residential mortgage rate
environment in the past twenty-five years. This loan growth was primarily 
in the adjustable rate mortgages and shorter term fixed rate products. 
Yields declined 222 basis points to 7.62% from 9.84% in 1992.

     Consumer second mortgage loans, which consist of second mortgage 
loans and home equity lines of credit, averaged $433.5 million, a 10.0% 
increase over the prior year's level. The average yield was 9.47%, down 
72 basis points from the previous year. Installment and bank card loans 
grew 10.7% and 6.5%, averaging $619.2 million and $441.6 million, 
respectively. Installment loan yields declined 138 basis points to 8.55% 
and the yield on bank card loans fell 152 basis points to 13.72%. The 
declines in yields resulted from both the lower interest rate environment 
and intensive market competition in both installment and bank card loans.

Allowance/Provision for Loan Losses

     At December 31, 1993, the allowance for loan losses was $105.0 
million, reflecting a 3.1% increase, or $3.2 million, from $101.8 million 
a year ago. The increase in the level of allowance for loan losses was 
impacted by the provision to the reserve and the amount of net charge-offs. 
The provision for loan losses totalled $79.5 million for 1993, a decline 
of $20.3 million compared to $99.8 million in 1992. Net charge-offs amounted 
to $76.3 million for 1993, compared with $59.0 million for the prior year. 
The provision and net charge-offs were reflections of continued 
deterioration of the commercial real estate market and the related 
writedowns of values associated with those problem loans.

     Nonperforming assets as of December 31, 1993 were $132.1 million or 
1.37% of total assets compared to $112.3 million or 1.29% of total assets 
at year-end 1992. The increase of 17.6% in nonperforming assets in 1993 
reflected the continued weakness in real estate development, primarily 
in the Northern Virginia markets.

Investments

     With U.S. economic growth slow and uneven for much of 1993, interest 
rates continued to decline. The Federal Reserve held short-term rates to 
their lowest levels in twenty years in order to accommodate the economic 
recovery. Meanwhile, with inflation under control, long-term interest 
rates dropped to levels not seen since the 1960s. Lower rates made 
borrowing more affordable for consumers and businesses, and many took 
the opportunity to refinance existing debt and to take out new loans. 
Led by rising consumer demand for houses, automobiles and other big 
ticket items, the economy finally strengthened in the second half and 
finished 1993 with the best quarterly growth rate since the fourth 
quarter of 1987.

     During 1991 and 1992, weak loan demand and rapid growth in core 
deposits provided the Company with ample liquidity for investment in 
securities. Those trends reversed in 1993, with loan growth significantly 
outpacing deposit growth. As a result, the securities portfolio was 
virtually the same size at the end of 1993 as it was at the end of 1992. 
However, the average yield on the securities portfolio declined 104 basis 
points during 1993 to 6.42%. This was attributable to three factors: 
prepayments on mortgage-backed securities, a change in the mix of asset 
classes and a move to shorter maturities.

     Sustained low interest rates generated record volume of home 
mortgage refinancing activity, which produced high levels of prepayments 
on mortgage-backed securities. Two waves of prepayments hit the mortgage 
market in 1993, one in the second quarter and another in the fourth 
quarter. Central Fidelity received nearly $960 million in principal 
paydowns from mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage 
obligations in 1993, with $428 million in the fourth quarter alone. 
Prepayments in a falling rate environment expose the Company to 
reinvestment risk, with the yields on new investments generally lower 
than the yields on the securities that have paid down.

     The second factor leading to lower portfolio yields was a shift in 
sector weightings. The proportion of mortgage-backed and corporate 
securities in the portfolio declined while the holdings of U.S. Treasury 
securities more than doubled. Holdings in the mortgage sector declined 
from 55% of the portfolio at December 31, 1992 to 50% at December 31, 
1993. Corporate securities fell from 15% of the portfolio to 0%. Holdings 
of U.S. Treasury securities grew from 15% of the portfolio to 32%.

     The third action affecting yields was a strategy to shorten the 
average maturity of the securities portfolio. As the bond market 
rallied throughout the summer, it presented an opportunity to restructure 
the portfolio and reduce interest rate risk. In September, 1993, the 
Company sold nearly $600 million in corporate securities which had an 
average maturity of 9 years. The Company realized a gain on the 
transaction of approximately $50.7 million. The proceeds were 
subsequently reinvested in shorter maturity government and agency 
securities.  The expected weighted average life and yield of the
portfolio at the end of 1993 was 3.3 years and 6.42%, compared to 4.8 
years and 7.46% at the end of 1992.

     As of December 31, 1993, the Company implemented changes in its 
accounting for certain investment securities as required by Statement 
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115. Upon initial application of 
the new standard, existing investments must be classified based on the 
enterprise's current intent. Thus the Company reclassified substantially 
all of its investment securities as available for sale. Such securities 
are reported on a fair value basis, with unrealized gains and losses 
excluded from earnings but reported as a separate component of 
shareholders' equity, net of deferred tax provision. Management believes 
the available for sale classification allows the most flexibility in 
meeting liquidity needs, adjusting interest rate risk and controlling 
balance sheet trends. The Company could experience volatility in its 
capital account in future periods because of market price fluctuation 
in its investment securities holdings.

Deposits

     In 1993, total deposits averaged $6.7 billion, representing an 
increase of 13.0%, or $771.2 million, over 1992. Core deposits grew 
10.1%, or $566.1 million, averaging $6.2 billion in 1993. The slower 
growth in core deposits, when compared to 1992, which increased $1.0 
billion, or 23.0%, over 1991, was principally the result of generally 
lower rates paid on bank deposits and a marked tendency of consumers 
to purchase annuities and mutual funds in search of higher yields.

     All categories of core deposits, except for money market 
accounts, increased during the year. The largest growth in average 
core deposits was in regular savings, which rose 46.6% to $816.8 
million compared to $557.2 million in 1992. Interest checking grew 
21.6%, averaging $632.4 million. Consumer certificates averaged $2.8 
billion, representing a 6.8% increase. Money market accounts averaged 
$1.1 billion, reflecting a decline of 7.6%.

     The Company's asset funding strategy focuses primarily on core 
deposit growth. Central Fidelity's share of total core deposits in the 
Commonwealth of Virginia was 11.29% as of September 30, 1993, ranking 
the Company fourth in market share. During 1993, certificates of deposit 
of $100,000 and over increased 64.4%, or $205.1 million, to an average 
of $523.5 million.

Noninterest Income

     Noninterest income was $125.8 million in 1993, compared to $115.4 
million in 1992. To reduce future interest rate risk and enhance 
liquidity in anticipation of higher loan demand and sluggish growth in 
deposits, the Company sold $600 million of corporate bonds in 1993, 
producing a $50.7 million gain. The increase of noninterest income, 
excluding the effects of securities trading transactions, was 14.1%.

     During 1993, trust income and deposit fees and charges grew 11.6% 
and 13.8% to $13.6 million and $33.9 million, respectively. Other income 
increased 16.1% to $23.9 million, primarily due to commissions from the 
sale of annuities and mutual funds which totalled $2.7 million.

Noninterest Expense

     Noninterest expense for 1993 increased 11.2% to $223.3 million, 
primarily reflecting higher personnel cost, FDIC insurance premiums and 
expenses associated with foreclosed properties.

     Included in the noninterest expense increases were a $4.0 million
nonrecurring charge in personnel costs relating to certain postemployment
benefits and $10.4 million in higher expenses related to foreclosed 
properties. Excluding these two items, noninterest expense increased 4.0%.

Liquidity

     Money market investments and securities available for sale that 
mature within one year, or have an expected weighted average life of one 
year, are the primary source of asset liquidity. At December 31, 1993, 
those balances were $193 million and $563 million, respectively. 
Anticipated mortgage-backed securities paydowns also generate a 
significant cashflow. In 1993, prepayments from mortgage-backed 
securities totalled $960 million.

     Wholesale funding sources are also used to supply liquidity such as
federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements, securities lending and 
large denomination certificates of deposit. In addition, the Bank 
instituted a $600 million bank note program that was brought to market 
in February, 1993, providing additional funding. As of December 31, 1993, 
$309 million of bank notes maturing in 1995 and $102 million of bank 
notes maturing in 1996 were outstanding. All sources of funds are 
evaluated for their cost and maturity structure balanced against prudent 
liability management goals.

Capital Resources

     At December 31, 1993, total shareholders' equity, excluding unrealized
gains on securities available for sale, was $680.3 million, a 13.0% increase
from the prior year's level of $602.0 million. The contributing factors to 
the equity increase were growth in earnings after dividends of $64.0 million 
and $14.3 million from the issuance of common stock through stock option 
exercises, the dividend reinvestment program, and the Company's stock and 
thrift and stock incentive plans.  During 1993 cash dividends declared on 
common stock at an annual rate of $1.00 per share represented a payout ratio 
of 37.6%.

     At December 31, 1993, Central Fidelity's risk-based capital and 
leverage ratios exceeded the Federal Reserve's minimum guidelines. Central 
Fidelity's Tier 1 and total risk-based capital at December 31, 1993 were 
$646.9 million and $870.4 million, respectively, as compared to $566.3 
million and $791.5 million, respectively, at year-end 1992. At December 31, 
1993, the ratios of Tier 1 and total risk-based capital to risk-weighted 
assets were 11.06% and 14.88%, compared to 9.46% and 13.22%, respectively, 
at December 31, 1992. Central Fidelity's leverage ratio was 7.10% at 
December 31, 1993, compared to 6.85% at December 31, 1992.

Central Fidelity Banks, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Business

     Central Fidelity, a Virginia corporation headquartered in Richmond, 
Virginia, is a bank holding company. The Company owns, except for bank 
directors' qualifying shares, all of the stock of its commercial banks. 
At December 31, 1994, Central Fidelity and its subsidiaries had 
approximately 3,500 full-time employees. 

     The Company is registered with, and supervised by, the Board of 
Governors of the Federal Reserve System under the Bank Holding Company 
Act of 1956. Under this Act, it may only engage in the business of 
managing or controlling banks or furnishing services to its subsidiaries 
and certain other activities which, in the opinion of the Federal Reserve 
Board, are closely related to banking.

     The Company serves only Virginia markets, primarily through its 
wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Central Fidelity National Bank, a 
national banking association (the "Bank"). At December 31, 1993, Central 
Fidelity National Bank, the Company's principal banking subsidiary, 
converted to a national bank and is therefore supervised and examined 
by the Comptroller of the Currency. At year-end 1994, the Bank operated 
230 branch offices, including 29 full-service supermarket locations and 
194 automated teller machines throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia. 
The Company, through the Bank and its other subsidiaries, provides a wide 
variety of financial services to a broad customer base of individuals, 
corporations, institutions and governments, primarily located in Virginia. 
The Bank is an issuer of MasterCard  and VISA  credit cards. Through the 
use of reciprocally shared automated teller machines, the Company can 
deliver services through its membership in the Internet/MOST  regional 
and PLUS  national networks of automated teller machines. The Company 
also engages in limited international banking activities, primarily in
connection with foreign trade financing for Virginia based companies.  
In addition to commercial activities, through its Financial Services 
Group, the Company generates noninterest income by sales of trust and 
fiduciary services, annuities, private label mutual funds and other 
investment services.

     The Company's other national bank subsidiary, Central Fidelity Bank, 
N.A., organized in 1986, is also supervised and examined by the Comptroller 
of the Currency.

     Bank-related subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned, are engaged 
in insurance and other bank-related services. Such subsidiaries, of which 
there are twelve, have made only a nominal contribution to revenues for 
each of the past five years. The bank-related companies are examined by 
the Federal Reserve.

     Central Fidelity conducts its commercial banking business under a 
variety of federal and state laws and regulations, some of which relate 
to interest rates, required reserves, transactions between the Company
and its subsidiaries, restrictions on loans to officers, the use of 
correspondent balances, the establishment of branches and the acquisition 
of subsidiaries.  In addition, the Federal Reserve Board has statutory 
authority to issue "cease and desist" orders to bank holding companies 
and their bank-related subsidiaries with respect to actions deemed to 
constitute a serious threat to the safety, soundness or stability of a
subsidiary bank.  In 1991, Congress enacted the Federal Deposit 
Insurance Corporation Improvement Act ("FDICIA"), which substantially 
revised the bank regulatory and funding provisions of the Federal Deposit 
Insurance Act and made revisions to several other federal banking statutes. 
FDICIA requires that insured depository institutions maintain certain 
minimum capital standards and that federal bank regulatory authorities 
take prompt corrective action against those institutions that fail to
meet these standards. FDICIA establishes five capital tiers. Central 
Fidelity's banking subsidiaries rank, in management's opinion, in the 
highest of those tiers, which is "well capitalized." FDICIA also contains 
a variety of other provisions that affect the operations of the Company's 
banking subsidiaries, including reporting requirements and regulatory 
standards for real estate lending.

     The earnings and business of Central Fidelity are affected by 
general economic conditions, both domestic and foreign, and by the 
monetary and fiscal policies of the United States Government and its 
various agencies, particularly the Federal Reserve Board. Important 
functions of the Federal Reserve Board, in addition to those 
enumerated above, are to regulate the supply of credit and to deal 
with general economic conditions within the United States. The 
instruments of monetary policy employed by the Federal Reserve Board 
for these purposes influence in various ways the overall level of 
investments, loans, other extensions of credit and deposits and the 
interest rates paid on liabilities and received on earning assets. The 
Company cannot accurately predict the impact of changes in monetary 
policy.

     Based on September 30, 1994 published core deposit market share 
data, the Company ranks as the third largest among all Virginia 
commercial banking organizations. The Company experiences keen 
competition in all aspects of its business from each of the other major 
bank holding companies in the state. Additionally, the Company encounters
competition from smaller banks or bank holding companies and other 
financial service organizations. Finance companies and credit unions 
compete with banks in the important area of consumer lending and deposit 
gathering.

     Among commercial banks, the principal method of competition is the 
efficient delivery of quality financial services at competitive prices. 
Central Fidelity believes its delivery of financial services is 
equivalent or superior to that of its competitors and that its loan, 
deposit and service prices are highly competitive.

     On September 29, 1994, the Riegel-Neal Interstate Banking and 
Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (the "Interstate Banking Act"), which 
eliminated the federal restrictions on interstate banking, was enacted. 
This legislation generally authorizes interstate acquisitions of banks by 
bank holding companies without geographic limitations commencing September 
29, 1995 and authorizes interstate mergers of banks after May 31, 1997 
subject to the ability of states to opt-out. In addition, the Interstate
Banking Act recognizes state legislation which accelerates the 
implementation of interstate branching and mergers under certain 
circumstances. The Virginia legislature has passed such legislation. As 
of March 8, 1995, the Virginia legislation was awaiting the Governor's 
signature and will become effective on July 1, 1995, if it is signed by 
the Governor. The elimination of interstate banking restrictions will 
have no immediate effect on the Company's long-standing strategy to
serve only Virginia markets. It is uncertain at this time what effect 
the elimination of interstate banking restrictions will have on the 
competitive environment in Virginia in the future.

     The Company is not dependent upon any single customer, or group of 
customers, nor is the Company significantly affected by seasonal changes.

Properties

     The executive offices of Central Fidelity are located in the 
headquarters office of Central Fidelity National Bank, 1021 East Cary 
Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219. The Central Fidelity National Bank 
Building is in the James Center complex located in the heart of Richmond's 
business and financial district. The headquarters building consists of a 
22 story office building and garage, approximately half of which are 
leased from a third party with an initial lease term that expires 2002.

     The Company's subsidiaries generally own their offices and facilities.
However, either because of escalating property costs or statutes limiting 
the amount of a bank's investment in banking premises in relation to its 
capital, the Company has entered into operating leases for certain of its 
locations.

     As of December 31, 1994, the Company and its subsidiaries had 
consolidated bank premises and equipment, including land, buildings, 
furnishings and equipment, leasehold improvements and capitalized leases 
of $147.2 million. For additional information, refer to notes 7 and 10 of 
the notes to financial statements on pages 24 and 25, respectively.
