NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements
of Bank of New Hampshire Corporation (the "Company") have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The balance sheet
at December 31, 1993 is from the audited financial statements at that date but
does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of Management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the information
contained herein have been made. Results for the nine months ended September
30, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for the year ended December 31, 1994. The accounting policies followed by the
Company are set forth below and in Note A to the consolidated financial
statements in the 1993 Annual Report on Form 10-K (Exhibit 1) and should be
read in conjunction with the information contained herein.
Note 2. Securities - There was no cumulative effect on net income from
adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," as of January 1, 1994.
The opening balance of shareholders' equity was increased by $85,000 (net of
$44,000 in deferred income taxes) to reflect the net unrealized gains on
marketable equity securities classified as available-for-sale and previously
carried at cost. The following is a summary of held-to-maturity debt
securities and available-for-sale equity securities at September 30, 1994, in
thousands.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the Three and Nine-Month Periods Ended September 30, 1994 and 1993
OVERVIEW
Net Income
For the nine months ended September 30, 1994, the Company recorded net income
of $5.9 million, or $1.46 per share, compared to net income of $4.8 million,
or $1.41 per share, for the first nine months of 1993. The Company issued
690,000 shares of common stock on September 30, 1993 which had a dilutive
effect of $.30 on per share earnings for the first nine months of 1994. The
principal reason for the increase in net income for the first nine months of
1994 compared to the same period in 1993 was the decrease in credit costs.
The provision for possible loan losses recorded during the first nine months
of 1994 was $1.2 million compared to a $4.0 million provision recorded during
the first nine months of 1993. Other Real Estate ("ORE") expenses incurred
during the first nine months of 1994 were $1.3 million compared to $2.0
million incurred during the first nine months of 1993. The lower credit costs
were partially offset by the decrease in net interest income of $909,000 for
the compared periods.
For the third quarter of 1994, the Company recorded net income of $2.2
million, or $.55 per share, compared to net income of $1.4 million, or $.40
per share, for the third quarter of 1993, a 65% increase. The issuance of
690,000 shares of common stock on September 30, 1993 had a dilutive effect of
$.11 on 1994 third quarter earnings per share. The principal reason for the
increase in net income for the third quarter of 1994 compared to the same
period in 1993 was the decrease in credit costs. Also, net interest income
for the 1994 third quarter totalled $10.2 million, an increase of $680,000
over last year's third quarter. A $415,000 provision for possible loan losses
was recorded during the 1994 third quarter compared to a $1.1 million
provision recorded during the third quarter of 1993, a decrease of $635,000.
ORE expenses totalled $359,000 in the 1994 third quarter compared to $741,000
in the third quarter of 1993, a decrease of $382,000.
<PAGE>
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Loans
As shown in the following Table, total loans at September 30, 1994 were $527.7
million, an increase of $2.9 million from the 1993 year-end balance of $524.8
million. Sales of residential mortgages amounted to $8.2 million and $32.8
million during the first nine months of 1994 and 1993, respectively. In the
first nine months of 1994, commercial loans including commercial real estate
and construction loans decreased by $1.8 million and residential real estate
loans decreased by $19.4 million. Installment loans increased by $24.1
million, primarily due to the purchase of $15.1 million in student loans. At
September 30, 1994, residential real estate loans totalled $266.2 million, or
50%, of the portfolio balance and included $251.1 million of loans secured by
1 to 4 family residential properties. The Company has no foreign loans or
energy loans, and agricultural loans totalled only $8,000 at September 30,
1994.

Real estate - residential 266,219 285,582
Installment 71,028 46,975
Total loans $527,712 $524,843
A significant amount of the Company's commercial real estate loans have been
made to owner occupied businesses. Even though these loans are collateralized
by real estate, the primary repayment source for each such loan is the cash
flow generated by the related business. Additionally, it should be noted that
the diversification of the commercial real estate loan portfolio and the
magnitude of the potential loss exposure are such that a material adverse
impact on future operations of the Company is unlikely. See "Nonperforming
Assets," "Net Interest Income," and "Non-Interest Income."
The Company had no mortgage loans held-for-sale at September 30, 1994 and $2.0
million at December 31, 1993. During 1992, Management implemented a plan to
reduce the residential mortgage portfolio by selling qualified fixed rate
loans in the secondary market, to the extent necessary to adjust the loan
portfolio mix to desired levels. Management determined that, as of March 31,
1994, the residential mortgage portfolio was at the prescribed level and
remained at that level as of September 30, 1994.

Nonperforming Assets
The following Table provides information with respect to the Company's past
due, restructured and nonaccrual loans and the components of nonperforming
assets for the periods indicated.
September 30, December 31,
1994 1993

Nonaccrual loans $10,911 $13,039
Loans 90 days or more past due and

Total nonperforming loans 14,211 16,057
Other real estate (ORE) 12,525 13,393
Total nonperforming assets $26,736 $29,450
At September 30, 1994 the nonaccrual loan balance of $10.9 million included
$10.0 million in real estate loans, $881,000 in commercial loans, and $32,000
in installment loans. At September 30, 1994, loans 90 days past due and still
accruing interest were $2.0 million and included loans secured by real estate
which totalled $1.4 million, commercial loans which totalled $330,000 and
installment debt of $263,000. Although restructured loans have not been
material, amounting to $1.3 million as of September 30, 1994, Management has
encouraged them when the restructuring is likely to result in a paying credit
for the remainder of the restructured term.
The ORE balance at September 30, 1994 of $12.5 million consists of $10.6
million in properties actually foreclosed on with the remaining $1.9 million
representing "in-substance" foreclosures ("ISF"). The ORE balance consists of
$8.3 million of commercial properties, $2.6 million of residential properties,
and $1.6 million of sub-divided lots and undeveloped land.

believes the APLL is adequate as of September 30, 1994.
An analysis of the APLL for the three and nine-month periods ended September
30, 1994 and 1993 is as follows:

Securities
Securities totalled $290.4 million at September 30, 1994 and $258.4 million at
December 31, 1993. The portfolio consists principally of U.S. Treasury
instruments and high-grade municipal obligations with an overall average
maturity of thirteen months. Federal funds sold and securities purchased
under agreements to resell totalled $64.0 million at September 30, 1994,
compared to $105.0 million at year-end 1993, reflecting substantial liquidity
in the Bank's balance sheet.
Held-to-maturity debt securities totalled $286.8 million in amortized cost at
September 30, 1994. Equity securities classified as available-for-sale had an
estimated fair value of $3.6 million on September 30, 1994, including a net
unrealized gain of $16,000.
<PAGE>
Deposits
Deposits of $841.0 million at September 30, 1994 decreased $24.3 million, or
2.8%, from $865.3 million at December 31, 1993. Interest bearing deposit
balances at September 30, 1994 totalled $694.9 million compared to $716.6
million at year-end 1993, a decrease of $21.7 million. The decrease occurred
primarily in time deposits ($23.3 million), NOW accounts ($3.6 million) and
money market accounts ($3.1 million) and was offset somewhat by increases in
savings deposits ($8.4 million). Demand deposits decreased by $2.7 million
through September 30, 1994 compared to the 1993 year-end balance of $148.8
million.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
This discussion of net interest income should be read in conjunction with the
Tables on pages 19 through 22. All interest income, yields, rates, interest
rate spreads and net interest margins which follow in this discussion are
stated on a fully taxable equivalent ("FTE") basis using a tax rate of 34%.
Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 1994, totalled
$29.3 million compared to $30.2 million for the nine months ended September
30, 1993. Net interest income changes are caused by interest-rate movements,
changes in the amounts and the mix of earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities, and changes in the amounts of non-earning assets and non-interest
bearing liabilities. For the first nine months of 1994, the $961,000 decrease
in net interest income was primarily due to lower average balances in the loan
portfolio and lower rates earned on loans. For the first nine months of 1994,
the interest rate spread and net interest margin equalled 4.05% and 4.49%,
respectively, compared to 4.33% and 4.71%, respectively, for the nine months
ended September 30, 1993. Interest rate spread is the average yield earned on
total earning assets less the average rate paid for interest bearing
liabilities. Net interest margin is calculated by dividing annualized net
interest income by average total earning assets.
Average interest earning assets totalled $872.4 million for the first nine
months of 1994, an increase of $13.7 million compared to the 1993 comparable
period. Average loans, however, totalled $516.6 million for the first nine
months of 1994, a decrease of $70.2 million compared to the 1993 comparable
period. The increase in average interest earning assets consists primarily of
$84.7 million in taxable investment securities. The yield on average interest
earning assets for the first nine months of 1994 equalled 6.83%, a decrease of
59 basis points from the comparable 1993 yield of 7.42%. The decrease in
yield was offset somewhat by lower interest rates paid on deposits and
borrowings in the first nine months of 1994 compared to 1993. Rates paid on
deposits and borrowings decreased from 3.09% in the first nine months of 1993
to 2.78% in the comparable 1994 period. Average interest bearing liabilities
totalled $737.5 million for the first nine months of 1994, a decrease of $14.8
million from the comparable 1993 total.
Third quarter net interest income increased from $9.6 million in 1993 to $10.3
million in 1994. This increase of $660,000 is the result of higher rates
earned on taxable securities and federal funds sold and securities purchased
under agreements to resell, lower rates paid, overall, on interest bearing
liabilities and lower average interest bearing balances. The interest rate
spread for the 1994 and 1993 third quarters was 4.22% and 3.99%, respectively.
The net interest margin was 4.68% and 4.38% for the 1994 and 1993 compared
quarters, respectively. The Company's net interest margin was higher in third
quarter of 1994 (4.68%) as compared to the first and second quarters of 1994
(4.29%) and (4.49%), respectively.
Average interest earning assets totalled $870.3 million for both the 1994 and
1993 third quarters. Average loans decreased $40.1 million and average
federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell
decreased $39.4 million compared to last year's third quarter balances.
However, average taxable securities totalled $289.7 million for the 1994 third
quarter, an increase of $79.2 million compared to 1993. The yield on average
interest earning assets for the 1994 third quarter was $7.06% compared to
7.03% last year. Rates paid on deposits and borrowings decreased from 3.04%
in the third quarter of 1993 to 2.84% this year, a decrease of 20 basis
points. Average interest bearing liabilities totalled $730.5 million for the
1994 third quarter, a decrease of $28.8 million from the third quarter of last
year.
<PAGE>
Provision for Possible Loan Losses
The amount of the provision for possible loan losses is recommended by
Management and is then reviewed and approved quarterly by the Board of
Directors of the Company based on its assessment of the size, composition and
quality of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the APLL in relation to the
risks within the loan portfolio.
The provision for possible loan losses for the first nine months of 1994 was
$1.2 million compared to $4.0 million during the first nine months of 1993.
Net loans charged off for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993
were $2.7 million and $5.7 million, respectively. In connection with
determining the appropriate amount of the provision for possible loan losses
for any period, Management evaluates the current financial condition of
specific borrowers, the general economic climate, loan portfolio composition,
concentration of credits, loan loss history, adequacy of collateral, the
trends and amounts of nonaccrual and past due loans and estimation of future
potential losses and the level of the Company's APLL. Management will
continue to utilize the aforementioned criteria to monitor and analyze loan
quality in future periods and will provide for possible loan losses
accordingly.
The provision for possible loan losses for the third quarter of 1994 was
$415,000 compared to $1.1 million during the third quarter of 1993. Net loans
charged off for the three month periods ended September 30, 1994 and 1993 were
$491,000 and $1.3 million, respectively.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income decreased by $67,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 1994 compared with last year's total for the comparable period of $7.4
million. This decrease was principally attributable to lower net gains on
mortgage sales of $816,000 and net securities gains of $17,000. Trust fee
income increased by $565,000, or 24%, from the $2.3 million earned during the
nine months ended September 30, 1993. Service charges on deposit accounts
were $121,000 higher for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 compared to
1993.
Non-interest income increased $139,000 for the third quarter of 1994 over last
year's total of $2.4 million. Other non-interest income decreased, however,
by $200,000 primarily due to lower net gains on mortgage sales of $203,000.
However, securities gains increased $163,000, trust fees increased $136,000
and service charges on deposit accounts increased $40,000.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense increased $240,000 to $26.6 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1994 compared to the 1993 period. This increase was
primarily due to other miscellaneous non-interest expense which totalled $6.2
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1994, an increase of $677,000.
This increase consists of higher legal and professional fees ($356,000),
general insurance expenses ($80,000), service bureau expenses ($84,000),
marketing expenses ($117,000), ATM processing fees ($81,000), and other
miscellaneous expenses. ORE expense decreased by $685,000 for the 1994 nine-
month period compared to the 1993 nine-month period total of $2.0 million.
The 1994 and 1993 ORE expense for the nine-month periods consisted of general
carrying costs of $1.5 million for each year, further write-downs to fair
value for various properties of $185,000 and $563,000, respectively, and a net
gain on ORE sales of $373,000 in 1994 compared to $32,000 in 1993. ORE losses
charged to the allowance for possible ORE losses amounted to $100,000 and
$568,000 in the 1994 and 1993 nine-month periods, respectively. No provisions
for possible ORE losses were recorded for the nine-months ended September 30,
<PAGE>
1994 and 1993. FDIC insurance expense totalled $1.6 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1994, a decrease of $261,000, or 14%, over the
comparable 1993 period, reflecting the decreased premium rate charged on
applicable deposits. Salaries and employee benefits increased by $533,000.
Occupancy and equipment costs decreased by $24,000 to $3.7 million from the
1993 comparable period.
Non-interest expense increased $107,000 for the third quarter of 1994 compared
with last year's total for the comparable period of $8.9 million. Salaries
and employee benefits increased $368,000. Occupancy and equipment costs were
$1.2 million for both the 1994 and 1993 third quarters. ORE expense decreased
by $382,000 compared to the prior year third quarter total of $741,000. The
1994 and 1993 third quarter ORE expense consists of general carrying costs of
$501,000 and $723,000, respectively, and further write-downs to fair value for
various properties of $49,000 and $86,000, respectively. There were no
provisions for possible ORE losses recorded or write-downs charged to the
allowance for possible ORE losses in the 1994 third quarter. Write-downs
charged to the allowance for possible ORE losses totalled $39,000 in the 1993
third quarter. FDIC insurance expense decreased by $80,000 for the third
quarter and reflects the lower premium rate charged on applicable deposits.
Other non-interest expense increased by $245,000 due primarily to higher
marketing expenses ($54,000), legal and professional expenses ($56,000),
student loan origination fees ($75,000), service bureau expenses ($31,000),
ATM processing fees ($24,000), telephone expenses ($25,000), and other
miscellaneous expenses.
Income Tax Expense
Income taxes for the first nine months of 1994 and 1993 totalled $2.7 million
and $2.4 million, respectively, on 1994 pre-tax income of $8.7 million and
1993 pre-tax income of $7.1 million. The effective tax rate was 31% and 33%
for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The SFAS
109 valuation allowance which totalled $198,000 at December 31, 1993, was
reversed during the 1994 first quarter resulting in a reduction in income tax
expense.
