                              1995 PROXY STATEMENT
 
This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies
by the Board of Directors of Comerica Incorporated (the "Corporation"). The
proxies will be used at the 1995 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the
Corporation and at any adjournments of the meeting. The meeting will be held at
9:30 a.m. on Friday, May 19, 1995 at the location and for the purposes listed in
the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders. This Proxy Statement,
the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders and a Proxy Card will be mailed to
shareholders beginning April 14, 1995. The Corporation's Annual Report for the
year ended December 31, 1994 was mailed previously to shareholders.
 
The common stock of the Corporation is the only security of the Corporation with
voting rights. Only shareholders of record of the common stock outstanding at
the close of business on March 22, 1995 (the "record date") will be entitled to
vote at the annual meeting. At the close of business on March 22, 1995, there
were 119,294,417 shares of common stock outstanding. Each shareholder of record
will be entitled to one vote for each share held on each matter presented for a
vote at the meeting. Votes may be cast either in person or by proxy. A
shareholder may revoke a proxy at any time before the proxy is exercised by
giving written notice of revocation to the Secretary of the Corporation prior to
the annual meeting or by voting in person at the meeting.
 
A quorum must exist to conduct business at the annual meeting. A quorum exists
if a majority of the shares of common stock of the Corporation outstanding as of
the record date and entitled to vote at the meeting are represented in person or
by proxy at the meeting. If a quorum exists, the favorable vote of a majority of
the shares represented and entitled to vote at the meeting is required to elect
a director or approve other matters submitted for a vote at the meeting. Shares
represented by properly executed proxies will be voted in the manner specified
in the proxies. If no instructions are specified, shares represented by proxies
will be voted to approve the election of the nominees for Class II Directors and
the stock option plan for non-employee directors presented in this Proxy
Statement. If any other matter is properly submitted for a vote at the meeting
and no instructions are specified in a proxy, the shares represented by the
proxy will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the person or persons
voting the shares. Proxies containing abstentions or broker
 
                                        1
<PAGE>   6
 
nonvotes with respect to the election of directors or the proposal to approve
the stock option plan will have the same effect as a vote against the matter.
 
The cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by the Corporation. Proxies will be
solicited primarily by mail. Proxies also may be solicited personally and by
telephone, facsimile and other means. The Corporation will use the services of
Georgeson & Company, Inc., a proxy solicitation firm, at a cost of $7,500 plus
out-of-pocket expenses and fees for any special services. Proxies also may be
solicited by officers and regular employees of the Corporation and its
subsidiaries. No additional compensation will be paid to officers and employees
for soliciting proxies, nor will their efforts result in more than a minimal
cost to the Corporation. The Corporation also will reimburse banks, brokerage
houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their out-of-pocket
expenses for forwarding solicitation material to beneficial owners of the
Corporation's common stock.
 
                             ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
 
The Board of Directors is divided into three classes with each class of
directors elected to a three year term of office on a rotating basis. At each
annual meeting of shareholders, a class of directors is elected to succeed the
class of directors whose term of office expires at that meeting.
 
The term of office of four Class II Directors expires at the 1995 Annual Meeting
of Shareholders. The Board of Directors has nominated four individuals
recommended by the Directors Committee for election as Class II Directors of the
Corporation at the 1995 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The nominees are James
F. Cordes, Patricia Shontz Longe, Ph.D., Gerald V. MacDonald and Eugene A.
Miller. All the nominees have consented to their nominations and have agreed to
serve as directors of the Corporation if elected. The Board of Directors is not
aware of any other individual who will be nominated for election as a director
at the meeting.
 
The shares represented by valid proxies will be voted at the annual meeting in
the manner specified in the proxies. If no instructions are specified, the
shares will be voted to approve the election of the four nominees named above.
Although it is not anticipated, if any of these nominees are unable to serve,
the shares may be voted to approve the election of any substitute nominees
recommended by the Directors Committee. If no substitute nominees are
recommended, the number of directors to be elected at the annual meeting may be
reduced by the number of nominees who are unable to serve.
 
The individuals who are elected as Class II Directors at the 1995 Annual Meeting
of Shareholders will hold office for three years. Their terms will expire at the
1998 Annual Meeting of Shareholders or upon the election and qualification of
their successors.

retain the firm's services except for the completion of certain matters. Work

                           COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

$1,000 for attending each meeting of the Board of Directors. Non-employee
directors who served on a committee of the board also received $1,000 for
attending each committee meeting. The chairman of each committee received an
additional annual retainer of $4,000. Directors also were reimbursed for all
expenses incurred for the purpose of attending board and committee meetings.
 
The Corporation provides a $150,000 business travel, accidental death and
dismemberment insurance benefit for each non-employee director and also
maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance policies with a primary
limit of $20 million and an excess limit of $20 million. The primary limit
policy is insured through the Financial Institution Risk Retention Group and the
excess limit policy is insured through the Federal Insurance Company (a member
of the Chubb Group).
 
The Corporation also has proposed a stock option plan for non-employee
directors. This plan is subject to the approval of shareholders and is described
below under the heading "Proposal For Approval of a Stock Option Plan For
Non-Employee Directors."

                         RETIREMENT PLAN FOR DIRECTORS
 
The Corporation maintains a retirement plan for non-employee directors who have
served at least five years on the Board of Directors. The plan provides for the
accrual of one month of retirement income credit for each month of service up to
a maximum of one hundred twenty months. An eligible director is entitled to
receive a monthly retirement benefit equal to one-twelfth of the annual retainer
fee in effect for directors on the date of the director's retirement. Benefits
are payable for the number of months the director has accrued retirement income
credit, but do not extend beyond the director's death. Benefits become payable
when the director reaches age 65 or retires from the board, whichever occurs
later. Payments may commence prior to the director's 65th birthday if he or she
retires from the board due to illness or disability. For the purpose of
determining retirement income, credit is granted for service on the Board of
Directors of the Corporation and Manufacturers National Corporation.
 
                   IDENTIFICATION OF CERTAIN SECURITY HOLDERS
 
As of March 22, 1995, the Corporation did not know of any person who
individually, or together with associates, beneficially owned more than 5% of
the Corporation's common stock.
 
                        SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF MANAGEMENT
 
The following table provides information concerning the beneficial ownership of
the Corporation's common stock by incumbent directors, nominees and the
executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table (the "named executive
officers") and by all incumbent directors, nominees and executive officers as a
group. The number of shares beneficially owned by each individual includes
shares as to which the person has sole or shared voting power or investment
power and also any shares which the individual has the right to acquire within
60 days of the record date through the exercise of any stock option or other
right. Unless indicated otherwise, each individual has sole investment and
voting power (or shares those powers with his or her spouse) with respect to the
shares listed in the table.

ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") and the New
York Stock Exchange not later than specified deadlines. The Corporation is
required to disclose in this proxy statement any failure to meet these
deadlines. Two reports of three transactions involving shares acquired by James
F. Cordes under the Corporation's Dividend Reinvestment Plan and shares acquired
for his individual retirement account were filed late. In making this disclosure
the Corporation relied solely on the written representations of the directors
and executive officers and copies of the reports filed with the Commission.

     TRANSACTIONS OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS WITH THE CORPORATION
 
The incumbent directors, director nominees and executive officers of the
Corporation, their related entities and members of their immediate family were
customers of and had transactions (including loans and loan commitments) with
banking affiliates of the Corporation during 1994. All loans and commitments
were made in the ordinary course of business, on substantially the same terms
(including interest rates and collateral) as those prevailing at the time for
comparable transactions with other persons not affiliated with the Corporation
or its subsidiaries, and did not involve more than the normal risk of collection
or present other unfavorable features. All loan transactions presently in effect
with any incumbent director, nominee, executive officer or related entity are
current as of this date.
 
                               EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
 
The following information is provided for those officers designated as executive
officers by the Corporation's Board of Directors and includes the Chairman,
President, Chief Financial Officer, Controller and Secretary of the Corporation,
officers of the Corporation who are in charge of principal business units,
divisions or functions, and officers of the Corporation or its subsidiaries who
perform significant policy making functions for the Corporation.

                     DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLAN BENEFITS
 
The Corporation maintains the Comerica Incorporated Retirement Plan (1994
Amendment and Restatement), a defined benefit pension plan (the "Pension Plan").
The Pension Plan is a consolidation of the former Manufacturers National
Corporation Pension Plan (the "Manufacturers Plan") and the Comerica
Incorporated Retirement Plan (the "Comerica Plan"). Participants who retire
under the Pension Plan receive a pension based on a formula which takes into
consideration final average compensation and years of service credited in 1994
and later years. Former participants of the Comerica Plan and the Manufacturers
Plan also receive a past service pension for service credited prior to 1994
under either plan. Table I below provides estimates of the amounts payable as
annual pensions using various levels of final average compensation and years of
service credited in 1994 and later years. The amounts shown in Table I have been
computed without applying the limitations that apply to pensions under qualified
plans. Those limitations are discussed below.

Annual pensions under the Pension Plan are computed using base salary and
bonuses for the year earned as reflected in the Summary Compensation Table.
 
The Pension Plan is a tax qualified plan. Under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 (the "Internal Revenue Code"), the maximum annual pension that may be paid
under a qualified plan to any participant, including any named executive
officer, is $120,000. The maximum annual compensation of any participant which
may be taken into account in computing a pension under a qualified plan is
$150,000. The portion of the annual pensions reflected in the foregoing tables
which exceeds the amount payable under a qualified plan to any participant,
including any named executive officer, will be paid under a nonqualified plan
maintained by the Corporation.
 
The estimated years of service credited under the Pension Plan for each of the
named executive officers are as follows: Eugene A. Miller, 35 years; Michael T.
Monahan, 33 years; John D. Lewis, 24 years; Paul H. Martzowka, 31 years; and
Richard A. Collister, 2 years. The years of service credited to Messrs. Miller,
Lewis and Collister include the following years of service credited under the
Comerica Plan for which a past service pension is payable under the Pension
Plan: Mr. Miller, 35 years; Mr. Lewis, 23 years; and Mr. Collister, 1 year. The
years of service credited to Messrs. Monahan and Martzowka include the following
years of service credited under the Manufacturers Plan for which a past service
pension is payable under the Pension Plan: Mr. Monahan, 32 years; and Mr.
Martzowka, 30 years.
 
Under the Pension Plan, the normal form of pension payable to a participant who
is unmarried at the time he or she retires is a straight life annuity, the
annual amounts of which are listed in the tables above. The normal form of
pension payable to a participant who is married at the time he or she retires is
a joint and 50% survivor annuity, the amount of which is actuarially equivalent
to the straight life annuity. The pension amounts appearing in the Pension Plan
Tables are not reduced by any social security benefit which may be payable to
the participant and assume that retirement will occur at age 65.
 
                 EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENTS
 
JOHN D. LEWIS is a party to a management continuation agreement with the
Corporation. The agreement expires on December 31, 1995. The agreement provides
that Mr. Lewis is entitled to receive the following severance benefits if his
employment is terminated by the Corporation without cause or he resigns for good
reason during the term of the agreement after a change in control of the
Corporation: (1) an amount equal to 2.99 times his annual base salary; (2) the
amount of any earned but unpaid incentive compensation plus a pro rata portion
of any contingent incentive compensation calculated by assuming that target
performances were achieved; (3) accelerated vesting of any unexercised stock
options; (4) an amount equal to the spread on his unexercised stock options; (5)
payment of any legal fees and expenses incurred by him as the result of the
 
                                       22
<PAGE>   27
 
termination of his employment; and (6) continuation of life, disability,
accident and health insurance benefits for 24 months from the date of
termination, unless he becomes eligible to receive comparable benefits during
the 24 month period. If a cash severance payment or other amounts to be paid to
Mr. Lewis under the agreement will not be deductible by the Corporation pursuant
to Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, the cash severance payment will be
reduced to the amount necessary to preserve the deductibility of the aggregate
amounts payable to Mr. Lewis under the agreement.
 
MICHAEL T. MONAHAN AND PAUL H. MARTZOWKA participate in the Manufacturers
National Corporation Key Employee Retention Plan which was assumed by the
Corporation when it merged with Manufacturers National Corporation. This plan
provides severance benefits to each participant if his employment is terminated
without cause by the Corporation or he voluntarily resigns from the Corporation
prior to July 1, 1995. If either Mr. Monahan or Mr. Martzowka becomes entitled
to receive severance benefits under the retention plan, he can receive: (1) an
amount equal to three times his annual base salary at the time of termination;
(2) an amount equal to three times his average annual incentive compensation for
the three year period prior to the termination of his employment; (3) an amount
equal to the spread on his unexercised stock options; (4) an amount equal to the
present value of the amounts he would receive under the Corporation's pension
plans assuming three additional years of service and compensation; (5) an amount
equal to his unpaid base salary and accrued vacation through the date of
termination; (6) continuation of his life, disability, accident and health
insurance benefits for three years after his employment terminates, unless he
becomes eligible to receive similar benefits from another employer during the
three year period; and (7) under certain conditions, medical benefits for life.
If any severance benefits or other benefits to be paid to Mr. Monahan or Mr.
Martzowka under the plan would result in an excise tax to him under Section 4999
of the Internal Revenue Code, the severance benefits will be limited by the
amount necessary to avoid the excise tax if this results in a greater net
benefit to him. Mr. Monahan and Mr. Martzowka also may elect to receive the same
benefits provided to Mr. Lewis under the management continuation agreement
described above in lieu of the benefits they would receive under the retention
plan. The retention plan expires on July 1, 1995. Mr. Martzowka has advised the
Corporation that he intends to retire on June 30, 1995. When this occurs, Mr.
Martzowka will be entitled to receive the foregoing benefits.
 
EUGENE A. MILLER is a party to an employment agreement with the Corporation. The
employment agreement provides that Mr. Miller will serve as Chairman of the
Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation through June 30, 1997.
Commencing July 1, 1997, the term of the agreement will be extended
automatically every two years until Mr. Miller's 65th birthday unless a majority
of the directors of the Corporation vote against an extension. For the duration
of the agreement, Mr. Miller will be nominated by the Corporation to serve on
its Board of Directors.
 
                                       23

During the term of his employment agreement, Mr. Miller will be paid a base
salary and will be eligible for annual bonus payments in amounts determined by
the Compensation Committee commensurate with his position and performance. He
also will be eligible for option grants and restricted stock awards under the
Corporation's Long-Term Incentive Plan. These grants and awards also will be
commensurate with his position and performance. Mr. Miller also will be eligible
to participate in all of the Corporation's executive compensation plans for
senior executives which are in effect during the term of the employment
agreement and in any employee benefit plans which the Corporation maintains
during this period. Mr. Miller's overall compensation, including benefits, will
be reviewed on an annual basis and will be increased, if necessary, to maintain
his compensation and benefits at a level commensurate with that of other
similarly situated executives in comparable companies.
 
If the Corporation terminates Mr. Miller's employment without cause, or if Mr.
Miller resigns for good reason or the Corporation causes Mr. Miller's employment
agreement to expire prior to his 65th birthday, Mr. Miller will receive the
following principal benefits: (1) an amount equal to three times his annual base
salary, which will be paid in quarterly installments over a three year period;
(2) an amount equal to his average annual bonus during the three year period
prior to the termination of his employment, which also will be paid in quarterly
installments over a three year period; (3) accelerated vesting of any
unexercised stock options; (4) early lapse of restrictions on previously awarded
shares of restricted stock; (5) continuation of health and accident insurance
coverages for Mr. Miller and his wife for their lifetimes unless Mr. Miller
receives comparable coverages from another source; (6) continuation of his life
insurance coverage for three years; and (7) commencing at the end of the three
year payment period referred to above, a payment in the form elected by Mr.
Miller under the Corporation's defined benefit pension plan and excess benefit
plan, in an amount equal to the excess of (a) the retirement benefits Mr. Miller
would receive under the plans if he continued to receive service credit until
his 65th birthday, over (b) the retirement benefits he actually accrued under
the plans. If Mr. Miller's employment is terminated less than three years before
his 65th birthday, the amount payable in connection with his salary will be pro
rated for the time period remaining until he reaches age 65. If Mr. Miller's
employment is terminated for any of the reasons referred to above, the
employment agreement also provides that the Corporation will use its best
efforts, subject to the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors, to nominate
Mr. Miller as a director for the remainder of his life or until he reaches the
mandatory retirement age for members of the board.
 
If any payment to Mr. Miller under the employment agreement is subject to an
excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, Mr. Miller will
receive an additional payment so that the amount he receives equals the amount
he would receive under the agreement if an excise tax was not imposed.

The following Compensation Committee Report and Performance Graph will not be
incorporated by reference into any of the Corporation's previous filings under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
 
                         COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT
 
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors reviews all aspects of the
Corporation's compensation programs for executive officers, including the named
executive officers in the Summary Compensation Table, determines appropriate
levels of compensation for the Corporation's President, Vice Chairman and all
Executive Vice Presidents based on the recommendations of management, and
determines an appropriate level of compensation for Eugene A. Miller, the
Corporation's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, subject to the approval of
the Board of Directors. The committee also administers the Corporation's
long-term incentive plan. All the members of the committee are non-employee
directors.
 
COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY
 
The Corporation's compensation program is designed to attract, motivate, reward
and retain superior executive talent. It emphasizes performance-based
compensation and encourages long-term strategic decision making.
 
The principal components of the executive compensation program are base
salaries, annual management incentive awards and a long-term stock incentive
plan.
 
In reviewing total compensation levels for all executive officers, including Mr.
Miller and the other named executive officers, the committee evaluates: (1) the
Corporation's performance in relation to internally established performance
goals which are discussed below; (2) the Corporation's performance in relation
to the fifty largest bank holding companies in the United States (the
"performance peer group"); and (3) compensation levels at a selected group of
eighteen super-regional bank holding companies located primarily in the Midwest
(the "compensation peer group").
 
The fifty largest bank holding companies included in the performance peer group
are substantially the same institutions as those included in the Keefe-50 Bank
Index used below in the Corporation's performance graph, though there are some
differences.
 
In 1994, the committee reviewed the Corporation's executive compensation
programs to determine if they were competitive with the compensation peer group.
The committee used the services of an independent compensation consultant to
assist in performing peer group analyses and reviewing compensation program
alternatives. Based on these reviews and the judgment of the committee,
modifications were made to the programs.

COMPENSATION OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
 
The Corporation's Board of Directors relies on the Chief Executive Officer to
provide effective leadership and execute a successful business plan for the
entire organization.
 
The committee establishes Mr. Miller's base salary, management incentive award,
stock option grants and restricted stock awards in amounts commensurate with his
performance and position, in accordance with the Corporation's compensation
philosophy described above and in accordance with the terms of Mr. Miller's
employment agreement discussed in this Proxy Statement under the heading
"Employment Contracts and Severance Agreements".
 
BASE SALARIES
 
In the fourth quarter of 1993, the Corporation conducted a review of the
competitiveness of the executive compensation program. Based on this review, it
was determined that the Corporation's base salaries for executive officers were
at or above the median base salaries of the compensation peer group with the
exception of the Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chairman whose base salaries
were approximately eight percent below the median. In 1994, the committee
approved the recommendations of management to freeze the base salaries of four
of the named executive officers including Mr. Miller because of the desire to
achieve expense targets and because the Corporation's return on equity in 1993
was below median in relation to the performance peer group. The Vice Chairman
assumed additional responsibilities and received a base salary increase in 1994
which brought his base salary closer to the median base salary of the
compensation peer group.
 
ANNUAL MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PROGRAM
 
The committee members believe that return on equity is a key measure of
corporate performance. Therefore, the Annual Management Incentive Program for
executive officers is driven by the Corporation's return on equity in relation
to the performance peer group and in relation to return on equity targets which
are approved annually by the committee.
 
For 1994, the payment of incentive awards was based on the Corporation achieving
a minimum return on equity of twelve percent. Maximum incentive awards become
payable when the Corporation achieves a return on equity of eighteen percent.
These internal targets were established by the committee prior to the beginning
of the year. Upon determination of the Corporation's performance in relation to
these targets, the committee established a pool of awards for distribution under
the incentive program. The distribution of individual awards to Mr. Miller and
the other participants in the program is based on corporate performance,
individual performance and individual levels of responsibility within the
Corporation. Mr. Miller's award under the program also is subject to the terms
of his employment agreement.
 
                                       26
<PAGE>   31
 
As part of the overall competitive review of the compensation program for
executive officers, an evaluation of incentive pay levels of the performance
peer group was conducted. Based on the findings and the committee's judgment, it
was determined that the Corporation's incentive formula did not provide
competitive award opportunities for superior return on equity performance.
Superior return on equity performance is defined as ranking within the top two
quintiles of the performance peer group. To provide incentive awards that are
more comparable to those of the compensation peer group when superior return on
equity performance is achieved, modifications were made to the incentive
formula.
 
The 1994 annual management incentive awards for Mr. Miller and the other named
executive officers were based on the return on equity of 16.74% achieved in 1994
which placed the Corporation in the second highest quintile of the performance
peer group at ranking number eighteen.
 
Mr. Miller's 1994 award under the Annual Management Incentive Program reflects
the Corporation's second highest quintile return on equity performance. This
award, combined with Mr. Miller's base salary, provided him with a total 1994
cash compensation that was slightly above the median for the compensation peer
group.
 
To reward sustained superior annual performance over a three year period, the
committee approved management's recommendation to add a feature to the Annual
Management Incentive Program. An additional award will be paid if the
Corporation's average return on equity for the most recent three year period
ranks among the top twenty in the performance peer group. Fifty percent of any
additional award will be paid in the form of a stock grant under the
Corporation's Long-Term Incentive Plan and fifty percent will be paid in cash. A
non-transferability restriction will be attached to any stock grant which will
preclude the recipient from disposing of the stock prior to retirement or other
termination of employment. The stock portion of the additional award serves to
further align the interests of the Corporation's senior officers with those of
the shareholders. The first year that an executive officer can receive an
incremental award is 1997.
 
STOCK AWARDS
 
The Corporation's Long-Term Incentive Plan provides stock awards for key
officers including all of its named executive officers. The Plan's objective is
to align the interests of the Corporation's key officers with those of its
shareholders.
 
Awards in 1994 consisted principally of stock option grants with exercise prices
equal to the fair market value of the Corporation's common stock on the grant
date. Because executives receive value from stock option awards only in the
event of stock price appreciation, the committee believes stock options were a
strong incentive to improve financial performance. Individual awards in 1994
 
                                       27
<PAGE>   32
 
were based on corporate performance and on individual levels of responsibility
and contributions to the Corporation.
 
Grants of stock options to Mr. Miller and the other executive officers are a
percentage of their base salaries which is determined by the committee based on:
(1) the Corporation's overall performance and (2) the individual performance of
each officer.
 
No restricted stock awards were made to Mr. Miller or the other named executive
officers in 1994.
 
STOCK OWNERSHIP GUIDELINES
 
Effective January 1, 1995, the Corporation implemented stock ownership
guidelines which encourage senior officers to own a significant number of shares
of the Corporation's common stock. The senior officers have five years to
achieve the targeted stock ownership levels.
 
DEDUCTIBILITY OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
 
The committee's objective is to structure the Corporation's executive
compensation programs to maximize the deductibility of executive compensation
under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. However, the committee
reserves the right in the exercise of its business judgment to establish
appropriate compensation levels for executive officers that may exceed the
limits on tax deductibility established under this section. Currently all
executive officer compensation is deductible under Section 162(m). Mr. Miller's
compensation does not exceed the deduction limits because his compensation is
paid under an employment contract which was in existence prior to the passage of
Section 162(m).

                           PROPOSAL FOR APPROVAL OF A
                  STOCK OPTION PLAN FOR NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS
 
On January 19, 1995, the Board of Directors adopted the Comerica Incorporated
Stock Option Plan For Non-Employee Directors (the "Plan"), subject to the
approval of shareholders. The purposes of the Plan are to promote the continued
prosperity of the Corporation by aligning the long-term financial interests of
non-employee directors of the Corporation and its affiliates with those of
shareholders, to provide an additional incentive for these individuals to remain
as directors of the
 
                                       29
<PAGE>   34
 
Corporation and its affiliates, and to provide a means through which the
Corporation and its affiliates may attract qualified individuals to serve as
directors. Shareholder approval of the Plan will enable the Corporation to
remain competitive with other financial organizations that use stock-based
compensation as part of their director compensation package and also will place
the Plan in compliance with the requirements of applicable federal securities
law.
 
The full text of the Plan is included as Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement. The
following is a summary of the material features of the Plan.
 
After each annual meeting of shareholders, each member of the Board of Directors
of the Corporation who is not an employee of the Corporation or of any of its
subsidiaries will be granted an option, pursuant to a formula in the Plan, to
purchase 1,000 shares of the common stock of the Corporation. The Plan also
authorizes the granting of options on a discretionary basis to non-employee
directors of Comerica Bank and the Affiliated Banks (as defined in the Plan) who
also are directors of the Corporation. Option grants under the Plan will be in
addition to annual retainers, meeting fees and other compensation payable to
non-employee directors in connection with their services as directors. The
Corporation will not receive any consideration for granting options under the
Plan other than the services to be provided by the directors who participate in
the Plan.
 
The Plan will be administered by a committee of the Board of Directors to be
appointed by the board for this purpose or by the committee's designee. The
formula grants to directors of the Corporation operate automatically and the
committee will not have discretion with respect to matters such as the selection
of directors to whom options will be granted, the timing of grants, the number
of shares to become subject to each option grant, the exercise price of options,
or the periods of time during which any option may be exercised. The committee
will have discretion with respect to grants to directors of Comerica Bank and
the Affiliated Banks if the committee chooses to make these grants.
 
The total number of shares of common stock which may become subject to options
granted under the Plan is 250,000 shares, subject to equitable adjustment upon
the occurrence of events such as stock splits, stock dividends or
recapitalizations. The plan will become effective upon approval of the
shareholders and will remain in effect until all of the options are granted
following the annual meeting of shareholders in the year 2004.
 
The exercise price of each option will be the fair market value of each share of
common stock subject to the option on the date the option is granted. The
exercise price is payable in full upon exercise of the option and may be paid in
cash or by delivery of previously owned shares. The Plan also permits "cashless
exercises". These generally involve a program through which option shares are
delivered to a broker as collateral for a margin loan which is used to pay the
exercise price. Alternatively, the broker may sell a portion of the shares
received and use the proceeds from the sale to pay the exercise price.
 
                                       30
<PAGE>   35
 
The Plan committee or its designee may change the option price per share
following a corporate reorganization or recapitalization so that the aggregate
option price for all shares subject to each outstanding option prior to the
change is equivalent to the aggregate option price for all shares or other
securities into which option shares have been converted or which have been
substituted for option shares.
 
The term of each option will be ten years. Except in the event of the
optionholder's death or a change in control of the Corporation (as defined in
the Plan), options are not exercisable until one year after the date of the
grant. Options are fully vested after one year. Unexercised options expire ten
years after the grant date.
 
So long as applicable securities laws contain nontransferability restrictions
with respect to compensatory options, the options will not be transferable
except at death or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order (as defined
in the Internal Revenue Code) entered in connection with the divorce or legal
separation of the optionholder. Options will be exercisable during a director's
lifetime only by the director or his or her legal representative.
 
Upon a director's retirement from the board or upon his or her disability or
death or separation due to any other circumstance (other than resignation or
removal for cause), the director's vested options will remain exercisable for
one year or until the expiration of the original term of the options, whichever
is earlier. If a director resigns from the board or is removed for cause, his or
her vested options will remain exercisable for 90 days or until the expiration
of the original term of the options, whichever is earlier. Upon the death of a
director subsequent to his or her retirement, disability, resignation, removal
or separation due to any other circumstance, the director's options may be
exercised by his or her legal representative during the period remaining until
the expiration of the options.
 
The Board of Directors may amend the Plan at any time except that the formula
provisions of the Plan relating to the number of options to be granted to
directors of the Corporation, the timing of these grants, the exercise price of
options subject to these grants, the periods during which these options may be
exercised and the term of these options may not be amended more than once every
six months other than to comply with changes in the Internal Revenue Code, the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 or the rules promulgated
thereunder. In addition, the board may not make any amendment without
shareholder approval if shareholder approval is required to comply with Rule
16b-3 of the Exchange Act or the rules of the New York Stock Exchange. Rule
16b-3 currently requires shareholder approval of any amendment which would
materially increase the benefits accruing to participants under the Plan,
materially increase the number of securities which may be issued under the Plan
or materially modify the eligibility requirements for participation in the Plan.
Finally, the Board of Directors may not make any amendment to the Plan which
would result in the loss of the Rule 16b-3 exemption for options granted under
the Plan.

The only eligible participants in the Plan are non-employee directors of the
Corporation who will receive formula grants attributable to their service as
directors of the Corporation and who may receive discretionary grants
attributable to their service as directors of Comerica Bank and any Affiliated
Bank. Presently, there are ten non-employee directors of the Corporation who are
eligible to participate in the Plan, four of whom also serve as directors of the
Affiliated Banks. If the Plan had been in existence in 1994, options to purchase
10,000 shares of common stock of the Corporation would have been granted to
non-employee directors of the Corporation under the formula provisions of the
Plan. No basis exists to determine how many options would have been granted on a
discretionary basis to non-employee directors of the Corporation who serve on
the boards of the Affiliated Banks.
 
Upon the exercise of an option, the optionee normally realizes and recognizes
ordinary income to the extent the fair market value of the shares of common
stock acquired (determined at the time of exercise) exceeds the exercise price.
If the optionee is a Section 16(b) Insider, as defined under the Exchange Act (a
person subject to the short-swing profit recovery provision of Section 16(b) of
the Exchange Act), so that disposal of the acquired shares for a period of time
would be deemed a substantial risk of forfeiture under the Internal Revenue
Code, the realization of compensation income may be deferred until the risk of
forfeiture ceases to exist, unless the optionee elects to be taxed as of the
date of exercise of the option. If the realization of compensation income is
deferred, the amount of the income is measured by the difference between the
exercise price and the market value of the shares on the date that the risk of
forfeiture ceases to exist.
 
The Corporation is entitled to a federal income tax deduction equal to the
amount taxable to the optionee in the year in which that amount is includable in
the optionee's income. If any stock received upon the exercise of an option is
later sold, any excess of the sale price over the optionee's basis in the stock
is treated as a gain from the sale or exchange of a capital asset.
 
If a quorum is present at the annual meeting, the affirmative vote of a majority
of the votes represented and entitled to vote at the meeting is required for
approval of the Plan. Proxies solicited by the Board of Directors will be voted
to approve the Plan unless a shareholder specifies otherwise.
 
                             INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT
 
Upon recommendation of the Audit and Legal Committee, the Board of Directors
selected Ernst & Young LLP as independent accountant to audit the Corporation's
financial statements for 1995. Ernst & Young also audited the Corporation's
financial statements for 1994. Representatives of Ernst & Young will have an
opportunity to make a statement at the annual meeting and will be available at
the meeting to answer any questions asked by shareholders.

SECTION 3. SHARES AVAILABLE UNDER THE PLAN.
 
The aggregate number of shares which may be issued and as to which grants of
Options may be made under the Plan is 250,000 shares of the Common Stock,
subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 7. If any Option granted under the
Plan is canceled by mutual consent or terminates or expires for any reason
without having been exercised in full, the number of shares subject thereto
shall again be available for purposes of the Plan. The shares which may be
issued under the Plan may be either authorized but unissued shares or treasury
shares or partly each.
 
SECTION 4. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN.
 
The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee may delegate the
day-to-day administration of the Plan to any individual or individuals it deems
appropriate. The Committee shall keep records of action taken at its meetings or
by unanimous written consent. A majority of the Committee shall constitute a
quorum at any meeting, and the acts of a majority of the members present at any
meeting at which a quorum is present, or acts approved in writing by all the
members of the Committee, shall constitute acts of the Committee.
 
Subject to the remaining provisions of this Section, the Committee shall have
full authority to carry out the provisions of the Plan, including authority to
interpret the Plan and prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures in
connection with the operation of the Plan as it shall deem to be necessary and
advisable for the administration of the Plan consistent with the purposes of the
Plan. All questions of interpretation and application of the Plan, or as to
Options granted under the Plan, shall be subject to the determination of the
Committee, which shall be final and binding.
 
With respect to Section 5.A. of the Plan, the selection of the Non-Employee
Directors to whom Options are to be granted, the timing of such grants, the
number of shares subject to any Option, the exercise price of any Option, the
periods during which any Option may be exercised and the term of any Option
shall be as set forth in those provisions hereof which relate to Section 5.A. of
the Plan, and the Committee shall have no discretion as to such matters.
 
With respect to Section 5.B. of the Plan, the Committee shall have exclusive
authority to grant Options under the Plan, to select the Non-Employee Directors
who will receive Options, to
 
                                       A-4
<PAGE>   42
 
determine the number of Options to be granted to any Non-Employee Director and
the terms of any Option grant, and to determine the time when any Options will
be granted.
 
SECTION 5. GRANT OF STOCK OPTIONS.
 
     A. Automatic Annual Grants. On the day each annual meeting of the
     shareholders of the Corporation is held, each Non-Employee Director shall
     automatically and without further action by the Board or the Committee be
     granted an Option to purchase 1,000 shares of Common Stock, subject to
     adjustment and substitution as set forth in Section 7. If the number of
     shares then remaining available for the grant of Options under the Plan is
     not sufficient for each Non-Employee Director to be granted an Option for
     1,000 shares (or the number of adjusted or substituted shares pursuant to
     Section 7), then each Non-Employee Director shall be granted an Option for
     a number of whole shares equal to the number of shares then remaining
     available divided by the number of Non-Employee Directors, disregarding any
     fractions of a share.
 
     B. Discretionary Grants. Any Non-Employee Director shall be eligible to
     receive whatever number of Options the Committee, in its sole discretion,
     chooses to grant to him or her from time to time, but shall not have a
     right to receive any such grants.
 
SECTION 6. TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO OPTION GRANTS.
 
Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and
conditions:
 
     A. Exercise Price. The Exercise Price with respect to each share of Common
     Stock covered by the Option shall be 100% of the Fair Market Value of such
     share on the date the Option is granted.
 
     B. Payment of Exercise Price. The Exercise Price for each Option shall be
     paid in full upon exercise and shall be payable in cash (including check,
     bank draft or money order); provided, however, that in lieu of cash, the
     individual exercising the Option may pay the Exercise Price, in whole or in
     part, by delivering to the Corporation shares of Common Stock having a Fair
     Market Value on the date of exercise of the Option equal to the Exercise
     Price of the shares being purchased: except that (i) any portion of the
     Exercise Price representing a fraction of a share shall in any event be
     paid in cash, and (ii) no shares of Common Stock which have been held for
     less than six months may be delivered in payment of the Exercise Price of
     an Option. Delivery of shares may also be accomplished through the
     effective transfer to the Corporation of shares held by a broker or other
     agent. The Corporation will also cooperate with any individual exercising
     an Option who participates in a cashless exercise program of a broker or
     other agent under which all or part of the shares received upon exercise of
     the Option are sold through the broker or other agent or under which the
     broker or other agent makes a loan to such individual. Notwithstanding the
     foregoing, the exercise of the Option shall not be deemed
 
                                       A-5
<PAGE>   43
 
     to occur and no shares of Common Stock will be issued by the Corporation
     upon exercise of the Option until the Corporation has received payment of
     the Exercise Price in full. The date of exercise of an Option shall be
     determined under procedures established by the Committee, and as of the
     date of exercise the individual exercising the Option shall be considered
     for all purposes to be the owner of the shares with respect to which the
     Option has been exercised. Payment of the Exercise Price with shares shall
     not increase the number of shares of Common Stock which may be issued under
     the Plan as provided in Section 3.
 
     C. Term of Options and Vesting. No Option shall be exercisable during the
     first year of its term except in case of death as provided in Section 6.E.
     or upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Corporation. Each
     Option shall be exercisable with respect to all of the shares subject
     thereto from and after the first anniversary of the date of its grant.
     Subject to the preceding sentences of this Section 6.C. and subject to
     Section 6.E. which provides for earlier termination of an Option under
     certain circumstances, each Option shall expire ten years after the date of
     grant. An Option, to the extent exercisable at any time, may be exercised
     in whole or in part.
 
     Notwithstanding any other provision contained in the Plan, in case any
     Change in Control of the Corporation occurs, all outstanding Options shall
     become immediately and fully exercisable whether or not otherwise
     exercisable by their terms.
 
     D. Restrictions on Transferability. No Option shall be transferable by the
     grantee otherwise than by will, or if the grantee dies intestate, by the
     laws of descent and distribution of the state of domicile of the grantee at
     the time of death or pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. All
     Options shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the grantee only by the
     grantee or by the grantee's Legal Representative. These restrictions on
     transferability shall not apply to the extent such restrictions are not at
     the time required for the Plan to continue to meet the requirements of Rule
     16b-3 under the Exchange Act, or any successor Rule.
 
     E. Separation From Board Service. If a grantee ceases to be a director of
     the Corporation, Comerica Bank or any Affiliated Bank, any outstanding
     Options the grantee then holds shall be exercisable in accordance with the
     following provisions:
 
        1. Retirement, Disability, Death or Other Separation. If the grantee's
        separation is due to his or her retirement, Disability, death or any
        other circumstance not covered in Section 6.E.2. below, any outstanding
        Option held by such grantee shall be exercisable by the grantee, or by
        his Legal Representative or Personal Representative, as the case may be
        (but only if exercisable by the grantee immediately prior to ceasing to
        be a director), at any time prior to the expiration date of such Option
        or within one year after the date the grantee ceases to be a director,
        whichever period is shorter; and
 
                                       A-6
<PAGE>   44
 
        2. Resignation or Removal for Cause. If the grantee's separation is due
        to his or her resignation or removal from office for Cause, any
        outstanding Option held by the grantee which is exercisable by the
        grantee immediately prior to his or her resignation or removal shall be
        exercisable by the grantee for 90 days following such resignation or
        removal (or by his or her Personal Representative or Legal
        Representative during the remainder of such 90-day period if he or she
        dies or becomes Disabled during such period), but not beyond the
        original term of such Option.
 
     An Option held by a grantee who has ceased to be a director of the
     Corporation, Comerica Bank or any Affiliated Bank shall expire at the end
     of the applicable exercise period, if any, specified in this Section 6.E.
 
     F. Option Agreements. All grants of Options shall be evidenced by an
     Agreement which shall be executed on behalf of the Corporation by a
     representative of the Committee.
 
     G. Conditions Applicable to Grants of Options. The obligation of the
     Corporation to issue shares of Common Stock under the Plan shall be subject
     to (i) the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities
     Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to such shares, if deemed necessary
     or appropriate by counsel for the Corporation; (ii) the condition that any
     shares to be issued shall have been listed (or authorized for listing upon
     official notice of issuance) upon each stock exchange, if any, on which the
     Common Stock may then be listed; and (iii) all other applicable laws,
     regulations, rules and orders which may then be in effect.
 
     Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6 and the other
     provisions of the Plan, any Option granted under the Plan shall be subject
     to such restrictions and other terms and conditions, if any, as shall be
     determined by the Committee in its discretion and set forth in an
     Agreement; except that (i) with respect to automatic grants under Section
     5.A. hereof, in no event shall the Committee or the Board have any power or
     authority which would cause the Plan to fail to be a plan described in Rule
     16b-3(c)(2)(ii) (or old Rule 16b-3(b)(1)(iii) so long as such rule remains
     effective), or any successor Rule; and (ii) with respect to discretionary
     grants under Section 5.B. hereof, in no event shall any member of the
     Committee be other than a "disinterested person" under Rule 16b-3(c)(2)(i)
     (or Rule 16b-3(b)(1)(ii) so long as such rule remains effective).
     Furthermore, transactions under this Plan are intended to comply with all
     applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or its successors under the 1934 Act.
     To the extent any provision of the Plan or action by the Committee fails to
     so comply, it shall be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law
     and deemed advisable by the Committee.

SECTION 7. ADJUSTMENT AND SUBSTITUTION OF SHARES.
 
In the event any change occurs in the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization,
merger, consolidation, reorganization, combination or exchange of shares,
split-up, split-off, spin-off, liquidation or other similar change in
capitalization, or any distribution to common shareholders other than cash
dividends, the number or kind of shares that may be issued under the Plan
pursuant to Section 3, including shares covered by existing Options, shall be
automatically adjusted to preserve the proportionate interests of the grantees
in the Corporation as represented by their outstanding Options, and the
proportionality of the share pool under the Plan in relation to the total number
of shares outstanding.
 
If the outstanding shares of the Common Stock shall be changed into or become
exchangeable for a different number or kind of shares of stock or other
securities of the Corporation or another corporation, whether through
reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, stock split-up, combination
of shares, merger or consolidation, then there shall be substituted for each
share of the Common Stock set forth in Section 3, including shares covered by
existing Options, the number and kind of shares of stock or other securities
into which each outstanding share of Common Stock shall be so changed or for
which each such share shall become exchangeable.
 
In case of any adjustment or substitution as provided for in the first two
paragraphs of this Section 7, the aggregate Exercise Price for all shares
subject to each then outstanding Option prior to such adjustment or substitution
shall be the aggregate Exercise Price for all shares of stock or other
securities (including any fraction) into which such shares shall have been
converted or which shall have been substituted for such shares. Any new Exercise
Price per share shall be carried to at least three decimal places with the last
decimal place rounded upwards to the nearest whole number.
 
If the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed in value by reason of
any spin-off, split-off or split-up, or dividend in partial liquidation,
dividend in property other than cash or extraordinary distribution to holders of
Common Stock, the Committee shall make any adjustments to any then outstanding
Option which it determines are equitably required to prevent dilution or
enlargement of the rights of grantees which would otherwise result from any such
transaction.
 
No adjustment or substitution provided for in this Section 7 shall require the
Corporation to issue or sell a fraction of a share or other security.
Accordingly, all fractional shares or other securities which result from any
such adjustment or substitution shall be eliminated and not carried forward to
any subsequent adjustment or substitution.
 
Except as provided in this Section 7, a grantee shall have no rights by reason
of issuance by the Corporation of stock of any class or securities convertible
into stock of any class, any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of
any class, the payment of any stock dividend or any other increase or decrease
in the number of shares of stock of any class.

<PAGE>   46
 
SECTION 8. EFFECT OF THE PLAN ON THE RIGHTS OF THE CORPORATION, ITS AFFILIATES
           AND SHAREHOLDERS.
 
Nothing in the Plan, in any Option granted under the Plan, or in any Agreement
shall confer any right to any person to continue as a director of the
Corporation, Comerica Bank or any Affiliated Bank, or interfere in any way with
the rights of the shareholders of the Corporation, the Board or the board of
directors of Comerica Bank or any Affiliated Bank to elect and remove directors.
 
SECTION 9. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION.
 
The right to amend the Plan at any time and from time to time and the right to
terminate the Plan at any time are hereby specifically reserved to the Board;
provided, however, that no such termination shall result in the cancellation of
any outstanding Options theretofore granted under the Plan; and provided further
that no amendment of the Plan shall: (i) be made without shareholder approval if
shareholder approval of the amendment is at the time required for Options
granted under the Plan to directors of the Corporation, Comerica Bank or any
Affiliated Bank to qualify for the exemption from Section 16(b) of the Exchange
Act provided by Rule 16b-3, or by any successor Rule, or by the rules of any
stock exchange on which the Common Stock may then be listed; (ii) amend more
than once every six months the provisions of the Plan relating to grants under
Section 5.A. of the Plan including the selection of the directors to whom
Options are to be granted under Section 5.A., the timing of such grants, the
number of shares which will become subject to any Option granted under Section
5.A., the Exercise Price of any Option granted under Section 5.A., the periods
during which any Option granted under Section 5.A. may be exercised and the term
of any such Option other than to comport with changes in the Code or ERISA, or
the rules and regulations thereunder; or (iii) otherwise amend the Plan in any
manner that would cause Options granted under the Plan to directors of the
Corporation, Comerica Bank or any Affiliated Bank not to qualify for the
exemption provided by Rule 16b-3, or any successor Rule. No amendment or
termination of the Plan shall, without the written consent of the holder of an
Option theretofore granted under the Plan, adversely affect the rights of such
holder with respect thereto.
 
Notwithstanding anything contained in the preceding paragraph or in any other
provision of the Plan or in any Agreement, the Board shall have the power to
amend the Plan in any manner deemed necessary or advisable so that Options
granted under the Plan qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 (or any
successor rule relating to exemption from Section 16(b) of the 1934 Act), and
any such amendment shall, to the extent deemed necessary or advisable by the
Board, be applicable to any outstanding Options theretofore granted under the
Plan notwithstanding any contrary provisions in any Agreement. In the event of
any such amendment to the Plan, the holder of any Option outstanding under the
Plan shall, upon request of the Committee and as a condition to the
exercisability of such Option, execute a conforming amendment in the form
prescribed by the
 
                                       A-9
<PAGE>   47
 
Committee to the Agreement referred to in Section 6.F. within such reasonable
time as the Committee shall specify in such request.
 
SECTION 10. EFFECTIVE DATE AND DURATION OF PLAN.
 
The Plan shall become effective upon approval by the affirmative votes of the
holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock present, or represented, and
entitled to vote at a duly called and convened meeting of shareholders. If
approval is obtained at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 1995, the Plan
shall be effective on the date of the meeting and the first Options shall be
granted on that date following the meeting. The last Options to be granted under
the Plan shall be granted on the day of the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of
the Corporation in the year 2004.
