FIRST AMERICAN CORPORATION
AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles and general practices within the
banking industry.
The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
presented in First American Corporation's ("First American") 1998 Annual Report
to Shareholders. The interim consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for interim periods. Certain prior year amounts have
been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. The results for
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the
complete fiscal year.
(2) PENDING MERGER
On May 31, 1999, First American and AmSouth Bancorporation ("AmSouth"), a
$20 billion bank holding company based in Birmingham, Alabama, entered into a
definitive agreement providing for the merger of First American with and into
AmSouth. Under the terms of the agreement, First American shareholders will
receive 1.871 shares of AmSouth common stock for each First American common
share. The combined company, which will be called AmSouth Bancorporation, will
be based in Birmingham and will have approximately 680 branches in nine
Southeastern states with leading market positions in Tennessee, Florida,
Alabama, and Mississippi. The company also will have a presence in Georgia,
Louisiana, Arkansas, Kentucky, and Virginia, and approximately 1,350 ATM's, the
largest ATM network in the Southeast. The merger, which is subject to regulatory
and shareholder approval, is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of
1999 and will be accounted for as a pooling of interests.
(3) MERGER-RELATED CHARGES
First American recorded merger-related charges of $28 million during the
six months ended June 30, 1999 which included merger and integration costs of
$15.5 million and a provision of $12.5 for losses resulting from systems
conversions and process integration. The merger and integration costs included
$8.3 million of systems and operations conversion costs and $7.2 million of
other merger costs, primarily termination and personnel-related costs. The
provision establishes an allowance to absorb losses resulting from prior systems
conversions and process integration. The provision will cover dishonored return
items, unidentified customer debits, unmatched or unlocated items, and other
similar losses.
The liability balance at June 30, 1999 includes severance and
personnel-related benefits, compliance-related issues, system conversions, and
process integration. First American expects expenses of approximately $10
million to be incurred in the third quarter of 1999 related to the completion of
systems conversion of the four 1998 in-market business combinations. The
following table presents a summary of activity with respect to the
merger-related charges:

(6) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and for Hedging Activities," establishes accounting
and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. SFAS
No. 133 requires that an entity recognize the value of derivatives as assets or
liabilities on the balance sheet. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the
values of derivatives will be accounted for depending on the use of the
derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The key criterion for
hedge accounting is that the hedging relationship must be highly effective in
achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows attributable to the
hedged risk during the period that the hedge is designated. SFAS No. 133 as
amended by SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities--Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133," is
effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000, and shall not be
applied retroactively to financial statements of prior periods. At this time,
management has not fully evaluated the impact of SFAS No. 133. First American
will adopt SFAS No. 133 prospectively on January 1, 2001.

(8) LEGAL AND REGULATORY MATTERS
First American Federal Savings Bank ("FAFSB") has a lawsuit pending
against the United States Government seeking damages for breach of contract. The
suit arose from the elimination of approximately $47 million in supervisory
goodwill upon the adoption of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and
Enforcement Act of 1989. The value and ultimate outcome of the suit are
contingent upon a number of factors, and highly uncertain. Pursuant to the
agreement under which First American acquired FAFSB in 1995, the former
shareholders of FAFSB as of December 1, 1995 will be entitled to receive
additional consideration equal in value to 50 percent of any recovery in the
litigation, net of all taxes and other expenses, including the cost of
litigation, which is received by FAFSB on or before December 1, 2000, subject to
certain limitations. Such additional consideration, if any, is payable in the
common stock of First American, based on the average per share closing price on
the date of receipt by FAFSB of the last payment constituting a recovery from
the Government.
Deposit Guaranty National Bank ("DGNB"), now a division of First American
National Bank ("FANB"), is a defendant in an action brought in Pike County,
Mississippi by a land owner and a gaming corporation, alleging that DGNB and the
two defendant casinos entered into an agreement, expressed or implied, to oppose
an application to operate a casino on the Big Black River in Mississippi. The
plaintiffs contend that DGNB used its influence to cause the Mississippi Gaming
Commission to deny the casinos' application. The plaintiffs seek actual damages
for injury to property and business in the total amount of $38 million and
punitive damages in the amount of $200 million. DGNB denies all liability and
has filed a Motion for Summary Judgment. It is the opinion of management and
counsel that ultimate disposition of the case should not have a material effect
on First American's consolidated financial statements.
There are from time to time other legal proceedings pending against First
American and its subsidiaries. In the opinion of management and counsel,
liabilities, if any, arising from such proceedings presently pending would not
have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements of First
American.

(9) SEGMENT INFORMATION
First American operates in two business segments, Banking Services and
Enterprises, based upon management responsibility. First American's reportable
segments are strategic business operations that offer different products and
services. They are managed separately based on the fundamental differences in
their operations.
The Banking Services segment consists of the traditional banking
components of First American's wholly-owned banking subsidiaries. This segment
makes commercial, consumer, and real estate loans and provides various banking
and mortgage-related services to its customers located within First American's
market, which consists primarily of the Mid-South region of the United States.
The Enterprises segment includes:
- IFC Holdings, Inc., which distributes securities, investment, and
insurance products to customers of subscribing financial institutions
located throughout the United States;
- ISG, the investment services group of FANB;
- First American Network, Inc., a subsidiary of FANB; and
- The SSI Group Inc., a healthcare payments processing company in which
FANB holds a 49 percent interest.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
INTRODUCTION
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of First American
appearing within this report and by reference to First American's 1998 Annual
Report.
To the extent that statements in this discussion relate to the plans,
objectives, or future performance of First American, these statements may be
deemed to be forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are based on
management's current expectations and the current economic environment. Actual
strategies and results in future periods may differ materially from those
currently expected due to various assumptions, risks, and uncertainties.
On June 1, 1999, First American and AmSouth, a $20 billion bank holding
company based in Birmingham, Alabama, entered into a definitive agreement
providing for the merger of First American with and into AmSouth. Under the
terms of the agreement, First American shareholders will receive 1.871 shares of
AmSouth common stock for each First American common share. The combined company,
which will be called AmSouth Bancorporation, will be based in Birmingham and
will have approximately 680 branches in nine Southeastern states with leading
market positions in Tennessee, Florida, Alabama, and Mississippi. The company
also will have a presence in Georgia, Louisiana, Arkansas, Kentucky, and
Virginia, and approximately 1,350 ATM's, the largest ATM network in the
Southeast. The merger, which is subject to regulatory and shareholder approval,
is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 1999 and will be accounted
for as a pooling of interests.
PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
Unless otherwise indicated, all earnings per share data included in this
discussion are presented on a diluted basis.
- Net income for second quarter 1999 was $57.3 million, up from $21.7

INCOME STATEMENT ANALYSIS
NET INTEREST INCOME
SECOND QUARTER 1999 VERSUS SECOND QUARTER 1998
For purposes of this discussion, net interest income is presented on a
taxable equivalent basis. Net interest income represented approximately 60
percent of total revenues for both the quarters and six months ended June 30,
1999 and 1998.
Various components of the balance sheet and their respective yields and
rates, which affect net interest income, are presented in Tables 2 (second
quarter) and 3 (year-to-date). The information presented in Table 4 provides a
summary of the effect on net interest income of changes in average balances and
changes in yields/rates. As shown in Table 4, for both the second quarter and
the first six months of 1999, the increase in net interest income resulted
primarily from an increase in the volume of earning assets partially offset by
rate-related decreases.
Net interest income for second quarter 1999 was $192.5 million, with a
4.12 percent net interest margin, which compares with $187.3 million and a 4.38
percent net interest margin for the same period in 1998. For the quarter, net
interest income increased $5.2 million and the net interest margin decreased 26
basis points.
For the first six months of 1999, net interest income was $383.8 million,
with a 4.17 percent net interest margin, which compares with $371.8 million and
a 4.41 percent net interest margin for the same period in 1998. For the
six-month period, net interest income increased $12.0 million and the net
interest margin decreased 24 basis points.
For both the quarter and six-month periods, the increase in net interest
income resulted primarily from a higher volume of earning assets, which
increased $1.6 billion or 9.2 percent. For both the quarter and six-month
periods, the lower interest rate margin resulted from a change in the mix of
earning assets (more securities, which generally have lower yields than loans)
and due to a lower benefit of net free funding arising from having a lower
percentage of earning assets being funded with noninterest-bearing sources (15.5
percent in 1999 versus 16.9 percent in 1998).
The net interest spread, which was 3.50 percent for second quarter 1999
and 3.54 percent for the first six months of 1999, declined 13 basis points for
both the quarter and six-month periods, versus comparable periods in 1998. The
decrease in the net interest spread is due to yields on earning assets
decreasing more than rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities.
The yield on earning assets, which was 7.52 percent for second quarter
1999 and 7.54 percent for the first six months of 1999, decreased 53 basis
points from second quarter 1998 and 56 basis points from the first six months of
1998. The decrease in the yield on earning assets was essentially reflective of
the overall lower interest rate environment in 1999. Also contributing to the
decreased yield on earning assets was an increase in investment securities
(which generally have lower yields than loans). Reference is made to the
"Balance Sheet Analysis" section in this discussion for additional information
on earning assets.
The lower rate paid on deposits contributed to the decrease in the
average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities in 1999 (40 basis points lower
for second quarter and 43 basis points lower for the six-month period). Average
rates paid on interest-bearing deposits declined (46 basis points lower for
second quarter and 47 basis points lower for the six-month period) primarily due
to the general decline in market rates and the impact of First American's
pricing actions. Although average deposits increased, additional borrowings were
needed to fund the increased volume of earning assets thus contributing to the
decrease in the net interest margin (26 basis points lower for second quarter
and 24 basis points lower for the six-month period). Reference is made to the
captions "Core Deposits" and "Borrowed Funds" for additional information,
including First American's funding strategy.

(1) Yields/rates and income/expense amounts are presented on a fully
taxable equivalent basis based on the statutory federal income tax
rates, adjusted for applicable state income taxes net of the related
federal tax benefit; related interest income includes taxable
equivalent adjustments of $5.1 million in the three months ended June
30, 1999 and $4.9 million in three months ended June 30, 1998.
Nonaccrual loans are included in average loans and average earning
assets. Consequently, yields on those items are lower than they would
have been if these loans had earned at their contractual rates of
interest. Yields on all securities are computed based on carrying
value. Loan fees considered an integral part of the lending function
are included in rates and related interest categories.

(1) Amounts are adjusted to a fully taxable basis, based on the statutory
federal income tax rates, adjusted for applicable state income taxes
net of the related federal tax benefit. The effect of volume change is
computed by multiplying the change in volume by the prior year rate.
The effect of rate change is computed by multiplying the change in rate
by the prior period volume. Rate/volume change is computed by
multiplying the change in volume by the change in rate and included in
the rate change.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
This topic is addressed under the caption, "Allowance and Provision for
Loan Losses."
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income remains a significant component of First American's
total revenues, comprising approximately 40 percent of total revenues for both
the quarters and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.
For second quarter 1999, noninterest income totaled $125.9 million, up
$1.5 million or 1 percent from second quarter 1998. The largest increases came
from investment services income (up $2.6 million, or 6 percent) and trading
account revenue (up $2.9 million, or 137 percent). The increase in investment
services income was primarily attributable to retail brokerage commissions of
the Enterprises segment. Growth in investment services income is an indicator of
how First American is succeeding in implementing its strategy of transforming
from a bank to a financial services company. The higher trading account revenue
was primarily due to gains on terminations of recently purchased interest rate
swaps. These increases were partially offset by a $4.6 million, or 31 percent,
decrease in mortgage banking income, which reflected the larger volume of
mortgage loans processed in 1998 due to the low interest rate environment. Table
5 presents additional detail about the composition of noninterest income for the
quarter ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.
17
<PAGE> 18
For the six months ended June 30, 1999, noninterest income totaled $242.6
million, up $8.7 million, or 4 percent, from the same period in 1998. The
largest increase was in investment services income (up $8.6 million or 11
percent), which was primarily attributable to retail brokerage commissions of
the Enterprises segment. Another significant increase occurred in trading
account revenue (up $2.1 million or 51 percent), which was primarily due to
gains on terminations of recently purchased interest rate swaps. These increases
were partially offset by a $3.9 million, or 15 percent, decrease in mortgage
banking income, which reflected the larger volume of mortgage loans processed in
1998 due to the low interest rate environment. Table 5 presents additional
detail about the composition of noninterest income for the six months ended June
30, 1999 and 1998.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE
For second quarter 1999, total noninterest expense decreased $49.1
million, or 19 percent, compared to second quarter 1998. Total noninterest
expense includes merger-related charges, which decreased $47.3 million from
second quarter 1998. In 1999, second quarter merger-related charges totaled
$24.8 million compared to $72 million of merger-related charges for the same
period in 1998. Refer to Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements for a
discussion of the merger-related charges.
For second quarter 1999, noninterest expense excluding merger-related
charges decreased $1.9 million, or 1 percent, from second quarter 1998. The
largest decrease occurred in salaries and employee benefits ($3.8 million or 4
percent), due primarily to synergies achieved in connection with the 1998
mergers (the number of employees was down 6 percent at June 30, 1999 from a year
ago). This large decrease was partially offset by increases in equipment expense
(up $1.7 million) related to branch automation and by increases in systems and
processing expense (up $1.5 million) due to higher volumes. Table 6 presents
additional detail about the composition of noninterest expense for the quarter
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.
For the six months ended June 30, 1999, total noninterest expense
decreased $41.2 million, or 9 percent, compared to the same period in 1998.
Total noninterest expense includes merger-related charges, which decreased $44
million from the first six months of 1998. In the first six months of 1999,
merger-related charges totaled $28 compared to $72 million of merger-related
charges for the first six months of 1998. Refer to Note 3 to the consolidated
financial statements for a discussion of the merger-related charges.

<PAGE> 19
For the first six months of 1999, noninterest expense excluding
merger-related charges increased $2.8 million, or 1 percent, from one year ago.
The largest increases occurred in (a) subscribers' commissions (up $4.8
million), directly related to the increase in brokerage activity income of the
Enterprises segment, (b) equipment expense (up $3.1 million) related to branch
automation, (c) communication expense (up $2.4 million) related to network
telecommunications and courier services, and (d) systems and processing expense
(up $1.8 million) due to higher volumes. These increases were partially offset
by a decrease in salaries and employee benefits ($5.9 million or 3 percent), due
primarily to synergies achieved in connection with the 1998 mergers (the number
of employees was down 6 percent at June 30, 1999 from a year ago). Table 6
presents additional detail about the composition of noninterest expense for the
six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.

INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense for the second quarter of 1999 was $32.4 million, or
36.1 percent of pretax income, versus $17.2 million, or 44.2 percent of pretax
income for the same period in 1998. The decrease in the effective tax rate for
second half 1999 compared to 1998 was attributable to a more favorable effective
state income tax rate in 1999 coupled with 1998 nondeductible merger-related
charges.
Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $69.3
million, or 35.9 percent of pretax income, versus $53.8 million, or 38.5 percent
of pretax income, for the same period in 1998. The decrease in the effective tax
rate for the first half of 1999 compared to 1998 was primarily attributable to a
more favorable effective state income tax rate.
BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS
LOAN PORTFOLIO
Loans comprised the largest component of earning assets. Average loans
decreased $310 million, or 2.6 percent, from June 30, 1998 to June 30, 1999.
During 1998, First American
19
<PAGE> 20
securitized approximately $1.2 billion of mortgage loans, which were contributed
to a Real Estate Investment Trust established by First American of which
approximately $623 million was securitized between June 30, 1998, and June 30,
1999. Securitizations and retention result in a change in classification from
loans to securities on the balance sheet and affect the growth rates of reported
loans and investment securities. Excluding the effect of securitizations,
participations, divestitures, and business combinations except Deposit Guaranty
and Pioneer, average loans increased $344.5 million, or 3 percent, during the
first six months of 1999 compared with the same period in 1998. The increase was
primarily driven by increases in commercial loans.
In addition to the effect of divestitures and securitizations, loan
balances have been affected by unanticipated client attrition through first
quarter 1999 associated with operational and customer issues, which resulted
from the integration of Deposit Guaranty. During second quarter 1999 service
quality was returning to normalized levels, and First American is continuing to
focus on retaining clients, providing historical levels of customer service, and
generating new business.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES PORTFOLIO
The securities portfolio is the second largest component of earning
assets, representing 35 percent of average earning assets during the first six
months of 1999 compared with 28 percent during the first six months of 1998. The
increase in the investment securities portfolio between the first six months of
1998 and 1999 was primarily attributable to two factors: (1) the securitization
and retention of mortgage loans and (2) the strategic increase in the portfolio.
Excluding the effects of the securitizations, average investment securities
increased 18 percent for the first six months of 1999 compared with the same
period in 1998.
DEPOSITS
Average total deposits increased $425 million, or 3 percent, from June
30, 1998 to June 30, 1999. Excluding the effect of business combinations except
Deposit Guaranty and Pioneer and divestitures, average total deposits for the
first six months of 1999 were essentially level with the first six months of
1998.
Core deposits are First American's primary source of funding and consist
of total deposits less certificates of deposit $100,000 and over and foreign
deposits. Average core deposits for the first six months of 1999 compared with
the same period in 1998 were essentially level.
As shown in Table 7, decreases in money market accounts and certificates
of deposit less than $100,000 were the primary types of core deposits that
decreased in the first six months of 1999 compared with the same period in 1998.
Reductions in balances of core deposits reflect an overall industry trend of
funds moving out of traditional deposits into higher yielding alternative
investment products, as well as some now-improving service quality issues
associated with the Deposit Guaranty integration. Programs currently in place to
increase core funding include the offering of updated products, such as the
First American Platinum Account, High Yield Savings Account, and the Select
Rewards Program. First American has responded to the service quality issues by:
(1) offering a "5-Minute Guarantee" to clients (i.e., clients receive $5 if not
served within five minutes while in a teller line), (2) specialized service
training, (3) balancing retention with new sales in the retail incentive
compensation plans, and (4) adding a senior service executive to the retail bank
organization. First American is responding to the overall industry trend to
invest in alternative products with its ISG Funds, which is made up of 16
individual mutual funds and 5 additional tailored "fund-of-funds." First
American believes that continued flexibility and innovation will be required of
financial services companies to attract future funding.
First American's core deposits are expected to increase at a slower pace
than loans during the remainder of 1999.

BORROWED FUNDS
Between June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1999, First American placed more
reliance on borrowed funds, including certificates of deposit $100,000 and over,
and short- and long-term debt.
CAPITAL
First American's capital position remained strong during the first six
months of 1999. The ratio of average equity to average assets was 8.85 percent
during the first six months of 1999, which compared to 8.75 percent during the
same period in 1998. The increases in shareholders' equity between June 30, 1998
and June 30, 1999, were primarily attributable to increases in comprehensive
income and issuance of shares for employee benefit plans offset by dividends
paid to shareholders. The "Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders'
Equity" provide additional detail on the changes in shareholders' equity during
the first six months of 1999.
On July 15, 1999, First American's Board of Directors approved a
quarterly cash dividend of $.28 per share on its common stock. This dividend
will be payable on August 31, 1999, to shareholders of record on August 13,
1999.
Federal regulators prescribe capital guidelines applicable to First
American and its bank and thrift subsidiaries, which as of June 30, 1999, are
classified as "well-capitalized," the highest regulatory capital rating. Table 8
summarizes the risk-based and related ratios for First American and its
principal subsidiary, FANB.

CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT
NONPERFORMING ASSETS
First American's asset quality remains strong as evidenced by its ratio
of nonperforming assets (excluding loans 90 days or more past due on accrual
status) to total loans and foreclosed properties of .41 percent at June 30,
1999, which is down from .48 percent at December 31, 1998, and up slightly from
.38 percent at June 30, 1998.
Nonperforming assets (excluding loans 90 days or more past due on accrual
status) totaled $50.3 million at June 30, 1999, down $4.7 million, or 8.5
percent, from year-end 1998 and up $6.8 million from June 30, 1998.
Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements presents the composition
of nonperforming assets and balances of loans contractually past due 90 days or
more as to interest or principal payments at June 30, 1999, December 31, 1998,
and June 30, 1998.
ALLOWANCE AND PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
As a financial services company which assumes lending and credit risks as
a principal element of its business, First American recognizes that credit
losses will be experienced in the normal course of business. Accordingly, First
American consistently applies a comprehensive methodology and procedural
discipline, which is updated on a quarterly basis at the subsidiary level to
determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan
losses is based on assessments of the probable estimated losses inherent in the
loan portfolio.
Table 9 provides an analysis of the changes in the allowance for the
first half of 1999 and 1998. The $8.9 million decrease in the allowance during
the first six months of 1999 from December 31, 1998, was primarily attributable
to a $7.9 million charge-off in the first quarter of 1999 in connection with a
commercial loan to a company doing business as a sub-prime lender that filed for
protection under federal bankruptcy laws.

the first half of 1998. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in
losses charged off in the commercial loan portfolio.
MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT
INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY
In the normal course of business, first American is exposed to market
risk arising from fluctuations in interest rates. First American's
asset/liability management team determines the appropriate amounts of
on-balance-sheet (e.g., loans, investment securities, deposits) and off-
balance-sheet items (e.g., interest rate swaps) to maintain consistent growth of
net interest income with acceptable levels of interest rate risk. Measurement
tools used to facilitate the management of interest rate risk include an
earnings simulation model, an economic value of equity model, and gap analysis
computations.
First American believes that interest rate risk is best measured by
earnings simulation modeling. Forecasted levels of earning assets,
interest-bearing liabilities, and off-balance-sheet financial instruments are
combined with the Asset/Liability Committee's ("ALCO's") forecast of interest
rates for the next 12 to 24 months and other factors in order to produce various
earnings simulations. To limit interest rate risk, First American has guidelines
for earnings at risk which state that net income should not vary by more than 8
percent for a 150 basis point change in rates from ALCO's most likely interest
rate forecast over the next twelve months. First American operated within these
parameters during the first six months of 1999 and in 1998.
First American's economic value of equity model measures the extent that
estimated economic values of assets, liabilities, and off-balance-sheet items
will change as a result of changes in interest rates. To help limit interest
rate risk, First American has a guideline stating that for an instantaneous 150
basis point change in interest rates, the economic value of equity will not
change by more than 20 percent from the base case. During the first six months
of 1999, First American operated within these limits.
23
<PAGE> 24
First American's interest rate sensitivity gap model measures the
difference between assets and liabilities repricing or maturing within specified
time periods. The net interest sensitivity position at June 30, 1999, was a
negative 33 percent (a net liability sensitive position) at a one-year repricing
horizon. A cumulative net liability sensitivity (negative amount) indicates that
net interest income has a tendency to increase if interest rates decline.
Although the gap model is a tool used to manage interest rate risk, the model is
limited in its usefulness because the gap position is a snapshot of interest
sensitivity for one point in time, whereas interest rate gap sensitivity can
change on a daily basis.
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Derivative financial instruments are used by First American to improve
the balance between interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive
liabilities. First American uses derivatives as one means to manage its interest
rate sensitivity while continuing to meet the credit and deposit needs of
customers.
At June 30, 1999, First American held interest rate contracts with
notional values totaling $575 million and a net positive fair value (unrealized
net pre-tax gain) of $8 million. At June 30, 1998, First American held interest
rate contracts with notional values totaling $3.3 billion and a net positive
fair value (unrealized net pre-tax gain) of $12 million. All of these were
hedges of interest-bearing assets or liabilities, in conjunction with First
American's management of its exposure to changes in the interest rate
environment. The instruments utilized are noted in the following table, along
with their notional amounts and fair values at June 30, 1999 and 1998.

As First American's individual derivative contracts approach maturity,
they may be terminated and replaced with derivatives with longer maturities,
which offer more interest rate risk protection. At June 30, 1999, there were
$18.5 million of deferred net gains related to
24
<PAGE> 25
terminated derivatives contracts, and there were $1.7 million of deferred net
gains at June 30, 1998. Deferred gains and losses on off-balance-sheet
derivative activities are recognized as interest income or interest expense over
the original periods covered by the related hedge.
Net interest income for the first six months of 1999 included derivative
products pretax net expense of $.1 million, compared with $2.5 million for the
first six months of 1998. Although the stand-alone effect of First American's
derivative products on net interest income can vary, hedges are intended to
improve First American's overall exposure to changes in the interest rate
environment and, therefore, should not be evaluated on a stand-alone basis.
Credit risk exposure due to off-balance-sheet derivative activities is
closely monitored, and counterparties to these contracts are selected based on
their creditworthiness as well as their market-making ability. As of June 30,
1999, all outstanding derivative transactions were with counterparties with
credit ratings of A-2 or better. Enforceable bilateral netting contracts between
First American and its counterparties allow for the netting of gains and losses
in determining net credit exposure to the counterparty. First American's net
credit exposure on outstanding interest rate swaps was $9.3 million at June 30,
1999.
In June 1998 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
133, "Accounting for Derivative Instrument and Hedging Activities," which now
has an effective date of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No.
133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments
and for hedging activities. It requires an entity to recognize all derivatives
as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and to
measure those instruments at fair value. Under certain conditions, a derivative
may be specifically designated as a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge. The
accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative will depend on the
intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. At this time,
management has not fully evaluated the impact of SFAS No. 133. First American
will adopt SFAS No. 133 prospectively on January 1, 2001.
LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT
The ALCO is responsible for ensuring that sufficient funds are available
to meet the demands of depositors, borrowers, and creditors. Liquid assets,
which include cash and cash equivalents (less Federal Reserve requirements),
time deposits with other banks, federal funds sold and securities purchased
under agreements to resell, mortgage loans held for sale, trading account
securities, and securities that are estimated to mature within one year,
amounted to:
- $1.17 billion, or 6 percent of earning assets, at June 30, 1999, versus
- $1.73 billion, or 9.5 percent of earning assets, at June 30, 1998.
The decrease in the ratio is primarily attributable to a decrease in the
balances of mortgage loans held for sale, securities maturing within one year,
and cash and due from banks, and a higher level of earning assets. In addition
to assets included in liquid assets, available-for-sale securities maturing
after one year, which can be sold to meet liquidity needs, had a balance of
$3.93 billion at June 30, 1999, compared to $4.57 billion one year earlier.
First American's liquidity is enhanced by a sizeable base of core
deposits. Additional funds can be raised from regional, national, and
international money markets as certificates of deposit $100,000 and over,
federal funds purchased, and securities sold under agreements to repurchase. As
shown in Table 11 and discussed under the captions, "Core Deposits" and
"Borrowed Funds," First American has increased its reliance on noncore
interest-bearing liabilities to fund earning assets.

An additional source of liquidity is First American's three-year $100

July 2001. First American had no borrowings under the credit agreement facility
in 1999.
YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE
The term "Year 2000 issue" refers to the necessity of converting
computer/microprocessor-controlled information systems so that such systems
recognize four digits to identify a year in any given date field and are able to
differentiate between years in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries (e.g.,
1900 and 2000). First American continued to make progress towards Year 2000
readiness during the second quarter of 1999.
To address the Year 2000 issue in 1997, First American adopted a
broad-based approach designed to encompass its total environment. A project
manager and a project team comprised of managers from various areas were
appointed. A Steering Committee made up of senior management provides direction
to the team and the team has been responsible for evaluating Year 2000 impact on
products and systems, developing a plan for bringing those products and systems
to Year 2000 ready levels, and testing or verifying that readiness. The team has
used a 5-phase approach comprised of awareness, assessment, remediation,
validation, and implementation phases. Areas of risk addressed by the project
team include:
- Business Systems Applications;
- Technical Infrastructure;
- Credit Administration;
- Facilities Systems; and
- Vendor and Third Party Assessment.
Beginning in 1999, testing validation of mission critical business
systems and applications identified during the assessment process was a key
focus area. By the end of the first quarter, remediation of mission critical
applications was 100 percent complete. Early in the second quarter,
recertification of internal testing processes for mission critical systems was
also complete. Testing with non-mission critical systems vendors, third-party
service providers, and customers will continue throughout 1999.
During the second quarter of 1999, the major emphasis for the project
revolved around cash and liquidity planning, contingency planning, "clean
management" (as defined below), communications, and completion of testing the
non-mission critical and third party supported systems. Continued emphasis was
placed on ensuring that remediated mission critical systems are functioning
properly in First American's production environment.
Other areas of emphasis in 1999 include updated risk assessments of
corporate borrowers, facilities' remediation and testing, and the development of
a plan to maintain the Year 2000 readiness of systems previously remediated.
With respect to credit issues, First American continues to monitor large
borrower relationships, focusing on those considered "high risk" (defined as
corporate borrowers with loans of $10 million or greater). An update of the
original Year 2000 evaluation of all "high risk" borrowers, which was conducted
in 1998, is complete. For the remainder of 1999, First American intends to
update the evaluations of these borrowers on a periodic basis. Significant
progress has also been made in the area of facilities management, and all of
First American's multi-tenant facilities have now been remediated and
26
<PAGE> 27
tested for Year 2000 readiness. Also, the development of a plan to control
changes to First American's systems environment began in the first quarter. As a
result, it is anticipated that a general moratorium on changes made to FANB's
systems will be implemented in the fourth quarter to preserve the Year 2000
ready environment. Additionally, First American has instituted a "clean
management" process, which facilitates the monitoring and approval of all
changes made to system applications pursuant to guidance issued by the Federal
Financial Institutions Examination Council ("FFIEC") to ensure that changes made
do not impact Year 2000-ready software code.
Contingency planning in anticipation of the Year 2000 issue was an area
of key focus in the second quarter. The event/contingency team's primary
objective is to develop plans addressing actions to be taken before, during and
after the event period. According to the FFIEC, "event planning" is a proactive
and detailed planning process that covers monitoring specific operations prior
to, during, and after January 1, 2000, detecting problems and resolving issues
related to whether and how to implement business resumption contingency plans,
and communicating with appropriate bank officials and customers. It also
involves personnel issues (e.g., vacation/leave policies, the availability of
subject matter experts) and communications issues (e.g., command centers,
internal and external notification procedures, call center scripts). Throughout
1999, First American's event/contingency planning team has been in the process
of developing detailed plans for each of these areas. This team is also
responsible for evaluating the existing contingency plans in place for the First
American's core processes and to modify them where necessary to satisfy
potential Year 2000 risks. The contingency planning process was completed during
the second quarter using a four phased approach approved by a committee of the
First American's Board of Directors. Third-party internal audit partners were
also involved in the review and approval of the process. Cross-functional
desktop testing of the plans for all defined core business processes was also
completed during the second quarter. Further live simulation testing of these
plans will be completed in the third quarter to ensure that involved
participants will know how to react and communicate in a timely manner to
minimize any potential customer impact.
It is anticipated that major focus for the third and fourth quarters of
1999 will be to revise and finalize the event planning process, continue with
both employee training and client communications, and monitor the clean
management process.
First American does not expect Year 2000 costs to exceed $5 million in
the aggregate, exclusive of any costs that might be associated with contingency
planning or implementation of contingency planning. External expenses are
estimated at $2.2 million. Internal allocation of existing staff is estimated to
total approximately $2.5 million.
First American's management believes its approach to the Year 2000 issue
to be comprehensive and does not expect the Year 2000 issue to have a material
impact on its results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition.

Exhibit 15. Letter regarding unaudited interim financial information from KPMG
Independent Auditors' Review Report
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
First American Corporation:
We have reviewed the consolidated balance sheets of First American Corporation
and subsidiaries as of June 30, 1999 and 1998, and the related consolidated
income statements, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the
three-month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is
the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a
whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to
be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of First American Corporation and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998, and the related consolidated income
statements, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the year then
ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated January 21, 1999, we
expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In
our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheet as of December 31, 1998, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in
relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
