TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS:
I would like to report to you the results of our Annual
Meeting held May 20, 1996. The TrustCo shareholders were
asked to vote on three proposals this year. All three
proposals were approved by overwhelming majorities of the
shares outstanding.
The first proposal dealt with the election of four directors
to serve for three year terms. All four were elected and
include:
Lionel O. Barthold, Chairman, Power Technologies, Inc
Richard J. Murray, Jr., President, R.J. Murray, Inc
William D. Powers, Chairman, New York Republican State
Committee
William F. Terry, Senior Vice President, Trustco Bank,
N.A.
The second proposal authorized amendment of the Certificate
of Incorporation of TrustCo Bank Corp NY to increase the
number of authorized shares.
The third proposal ratified the adoption of KPMG Peat
Marwick LLP as the independent certified public accountants
for TrustCo for 1996.
We thank all the shareholders who returned their proxies.
Your support and confidence are greatly appreciated.
I would also like to report that today the Board of
Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.275
per share. The dividend is payable July 1, 1996 to
shareholders of record at the close of business on June 7,
1996.
Thank you for the confidence you have placed in TrustCo.
Sincerely,
/s/ R. McCormick
