</TABLE>
Nonperforming loans consist of impaired loans, other nonaccrual
loans, and certain restructured loans. An impaired loan is a loan that
management believes the contractual amount due probably will not be collected.
Impaired loans are generally carried on a nonaccrual status. Nonaccrual loans
are loans on which interest accruals have been discontinued due to the
borrower's financial difficulties. Management may elect to continue the accrual
of interest when the estimated net realizable value of collateral is sufficient
to recover the principal balance and accrued interest.
Generally, interest payments received on impaired loans are applied to
principal. Once all principal has been received, additional payments are
recognized as interest income on a cash basis. Total restructured impaired
loans at June 30, 1996 and 1995, were $279,000 and $365,000, respectively. The
following table presents information concerning impaired loans:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REVIEW
The following is a discussion and analysis of the financial condition
and results of operations of First Tennessee National Corporation (First
Tennessee) for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1996,
compared to the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1995. To
assist the reader in obtaining a better understanding of First Tennessee and
its performance, this discussion should be read in conjunction with First
Tennessee's unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes
appearing in this report. Additional information including the 1995 financial
statements, notes and management's discussion is provided in the 1995 annual
report.
OVERVIEW
QUARTERLY COMPARISON:
Earnings per share for the second quarter of 1996 was $.63, up 7
percent from last year's second quarter earnings per share of $.59. Net income
for the second quarter of 1996 was $42.3 million, an increase of 4 percent over
the $40.8 million earned in the second quarter of 1995. Return on average
assets was 1.34 percent and return on average equity was 19.48 percent for the
second quarter of 1996 compared with 1.48 percent and 20.05 percent,
respectively, for the same period in 1995.
YEAR-TO-DATE COMPARISON:
For the first six months, net income in 1996 totaled $79.8 million, or
$1.19 per share, compared with $75.4 million, or $1.10 per share, for the same
period in 1995. Return on average assets for the first half of 1996 was 1.28
percent and return on average equity was 18.37 percent, compared with 1.39
percent and 19.07 percent, respectively, for the same period in 1995.
Total assets were $13.0 billion and shareholders' equity was $892.3
million at June 30, 1996.
INCOME STATEMENT/BALANCE SHEET DISCUSSION
NONINTEREST INCOME
QUARTERLY COMPARISON:
Noninterest income, also called fee income, grew 14 percent, or $15.9
million, from the second quarter of 1995, excluding securities gains.
Noninterest income accounted for 53 percent of total revenue in the second
quarter of 1996. The rise in fee income resulted primarily from increases in
mortgage banking which grew 42 percent, or $18.0 million, as origination volume
increased $1.2 billion to $2.8 billion for the quarter and the servicing
portfolio grew $6.6 billion to $20.5 billion at June 30, 1996. As a result of
higher interest rates, the growth in fee income was lessened by higher
secondary marketing losses and price concessions, as well as less gains on
sales of servicing than what was experienced in 1995. Refinance activity
decreased from 47 percent of total originations in the first quarter of 1996
to 26 percent in the second quarter of 1996. Refinance activity was 13
percent in the second quarter of 1995.
Revenues in the bond division were 24 percent, or $5.5 million, lower
in the second quarter of 1996 compared with the same period in 1995. As a
result of a rising interest rate environment and stronger economic activity,
bank customers experienced increased loan volume thus reducing their investment
requirements and changing their long term investment preferences. This led to
a change in customer's transaction mix towards shorter-term investments which
historically have had lower spreads, thus resulting in lower revenues despite
the increase in securities bought and sold ($48.8 billion in second quarter
1995 compared with $55.1 billion).
In credit card and merchant processing, higher transaction volume from
existing customers and an expanded customer base achieved through targeted
marketing efforts led to a 10 percent, or $.9 million, increase in fees
compared with the second quarter of 1995. As a result of increases in volume,
fee income from deposit transactions and cash management increased 9 percent,
or $1.6 million, for the same period. Trust services grew 11 percent, or $.9
million, as managed trust assets grew 13 percent from the second quarter of
1995.

For the first six months of 1996, noninterest income increased $39.3
million, or 17 percent, over the same period last year excluding
<PAGE> 10
securities gains. Fee income represented 55 percent of total revenues during
the first six months of both 1995 and 1996. Mortgage banking fee income grew
33 percent, bond division fee income grew 10 percent, and cardholder and
merchant processing grew 19 percent from the prior year. Trust services
declined 5 percent; however, this decline includes the impact of an accounting
change that was made in the first quarter of 1995 from cash basis to accrual
basis. As a result of the decrease in FDIC premiums, fee income from deposit
transactions and cash management was relatively flat from the prior year.
NET INTEREST INCOME
QUARTERLY COMPARISON:
For the second quarter of 1996, net interest income, on a
taxable-equivalent basis, increased 18 percent, or $17.8 million, over the
second quarter of 1995. This increase was due to a larger balance sheet with
increased levels of average earnings assets (13 percent) and an 18 basis point
increase in the net interest margin.
YEAR-TO-DATE COMPARISON:
For the first six months of 1996, net interest income, on a
taxable-equivalent basis, increased 16 percent, or $31.1 million, over the same
period in 1995.
Net interest income is the amount of income generated by earning
assets reduced by the interest cost of funding those assets. Net interest
margin is computed by dividing net interest income (on a taxable-equivalent
basis) by average earning assets. The discussion that follows details changes
in these two components of net interest income.
BALANCE SHEET GROWTH
QUARTERLY COMPARISON:
Total assets at June 30, 1996, were 12 percent, or $1.3 billion,
higher than total assets at June 30, 1995. Period-end net loans increased 9
percent, or $605.6 million from June 30, 1995 to June 30, 1996; the mortgage
warehouse increased 50 percent, or $368.0 million; and investment securities
increased 3 percent, or $67.7 million. The growth in the period-end balance
sheet was partially funded by a 9 percent, or $541.2 million, increase in
interest-bearing core deposits. The balance sheet growth is attributable
primarily to internal growth and the purchase acquisition of Financial
Investment Corporation (parent company of First National Bank of Springdale in
Springdale, Arkansas, acquired on October 1, 1995, with assets of $349 million
at acquisition). Excluding this acquisition, net loans grew 7 percent and
interest-bearing core deposits grew 6 percent from June 30, 1995.
Comparing average balances from second quarter 1995, total assets grew
15 percent, or $1.6 billion; net loans grew 9 percent, or $604.3 million, and
interest-bearing core deposits grew 8 percent, or $485.3 million. Net
commercial loans grew 7 percent, or $212.0 million, and net consumer loans grew
12 percent, or $271.1 million. Commercial loans represented 45 percent and
consumer loans represented 35 percent of total loans. Credit card receivables
grew 13 percent, or $60.9 million, as a result of targeted marketing campaigns.
The permanent mortgage portfolio was relatively flat from the previous year,
and real estate construction grew 24 percent, or $51.8 million. Excluding the
purchase acquisition of Financial Investment Corporation, average net loans
grew 7 percent and average interest-bearing core deposits grew 5 percent from
the second quarter of 1995.
With the increase in mortgage originations, average mortgage warehouse
loans held for sale increased 125 percent, or $672.5 million, from the second
quarter of 1995. This growth was funded by an increase of 34 percent, or
$845.2 million, in purchased funds from the second quarter of 1995.
YEAR-TO-DATE COMPARISON:
Year-to-date average assets increased 15 percent between 1995 and
1996. In comparing the 1995 and 1996 six month periods, net loans grew 10
percent. Commercial loans grew 9 percent and consumer loans grew 12 percent
over the same six month period. This growth was primarily funded with
interest-bearing core deposits, which grew 8 percent. Credit card receivables
grew 13 percent and mortgage warehouse loans grew 146 percent. The growth in
the mortgage warehouse was primarily funded by an increase in purchased funds
of 33 percent from the previous year. Excluding the purchase acquisition of
Financial Investment Corporation, net loans grew 8 percent and interest-bearing
core deposits grew 4 percent for the six month period.
<PAGE> 11
NET INTEREST MARGIN
QUARTERLY COMPARISON:
The net interest margin (margin) percentage improved from 3.91 for the
second quarter of 1995 to 4.09 for the second quarter of 1996. As shown in the
Net Interest Margin Computation Table, the net interest spread (the difference
between the yield on earning assets and the rates paid on interest-bearing
liabilities) increased 34 basis points while the effect of net free funds
decreased 16 basis points. The improvement in the net interest spread reflects
the expiration of the amortization of a basis swap in May 1996, which improved
margin 10 basis points.

===========================================================================
</TABLE>
The net interest margin is affected by the activity levels of and
related funding for First Tennessee's specialty lines of business, as these
nonbank business lines generally produce lower margins than traditional
retail/commercial banking activities. Consequently, First Tennessee's
consolidated margin cannot readily be compared to that of other bank holding
companies.
The mortgage warehouse balance grew almost 125 percent between the
second quarters of 1995 and 1996, adding $9.1 million to net interest income in
1996 compared to $4.9 million in the second quarter of 1995. Because the
spread between the yields on mortgage loans temporarily in the warehouse and
the related short-term funding rates is significantly less than the comparable
spread earned in the retail/commercial bank, the consolidated margin was
negatively impacted 15 basis points in the second quarter of 1996 compared with
3 basis points in the second quarter of 1995.
The bond division contributed $.7 million more to net interest income
in the second quarter of 1996 than in the same period in 1995. With its
strategy to hedge inventory in the cash markets, the bond division also tends
to negatively impact the consolidated net interest margin, since net interest
income is effectively eliminated on these positions. This negative impact was
10 basis points in the second quarter of 1996, an improvement from the negative
15 basis points impact in the second quarter of 1995.
The decline in the net interest margin in the other specialty lines
of business, as shown in the Net Interest Margin Composition Table, came from
the decreasing value of customer demand deposits that earn credit to pay for
First Express services and from competitive pricing pressures experienced in
credit card.
The retail/commercial bank margin improved from 4.04 percent in the
second quarter of 1995 to 4.29 percent in the second quarter of 1996. With
First Tennessee's existing balance sheet mix and the current interest rate
environment, the retail/commercial bank's margin is expected to remain stable
throughout the balance of 1996, and going forward, the consolidated margin will
improve with the expiration of the basis swap and will continue to be
influenced by the activity levels of the specialty lines of business.

YEAR-TO-DATE COMPARISON:
Year-to-date net interest margin improved from 3.92 percent to 4.01
percent. This improvement came from the reasons noted above in the quarterly
comparison discussion.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES/ASSET QUALITY
The provision for loan losses increased from $3.2 million for the
second quarter of 1995 to $7.6 million for the second quarter of 1996. The
higher provision reflects a higher level of allowance for loan losses
commensurate with loan growth. In addition, the level of provision was
increased due to inherent losses reflecting economic trends. The increase
in net charge-offs was primarily related to consumer and credit card lending
as the ratio of net charge-offs to total loans increased to .31 percent for
the second quarter of 1996 compared with .19 percent from the same period in
1995. Although increased from the prior year's low level, credit card net
charge-offs remain favorable to industry averages. The increase in 90 day
past due loans reflects the overall trends in both permanent mortgage and the
consumer loan delinquencies which are in line with current market trends.
The allowance for loan losses to loans has remained stable over the past few
quarters and was 1.56 percent at June 30, 1996, and 1.61 percent at
June 30, 1995. At June 30, 1996, First Tennessee had no concentration of
10 percent or more of total loans in any single industry.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE
QUARTERLY COMPARISON:
Total noninterest expense (operating expense) for the second quarter
of 1996 increased 16 percent, or $23.5 million, over the same period in 1995.
Employee compensation, incentives, and benefits (staff expense), the largest
category, increased 14 percent, or $11.4 million. Staff expense includes
commissions paid in several lines of business, such as the bond division,
mortgage banking, and the venture capital companies. As the revenues increase
or decrease in these business lines, the commissions change accordingly.
Commissions and incentives in mortgage banking increased 52 percent and
decreased 21 percent in the bond division from the second quarter of 1995.
With higher origination volume and a larger servicing portfolio,
amortization and hedging of mortgage servicing rights increased $1.9 million.
The increase in advertising and public relations primarily resulted from
targeted marketing expansion in the credit card business line in response to an
increasingly competitive environment. The decrease in the deposit insurance
premium reflects the cutback in the FDIC premium rate to zero at the beginning
of 1996. The remaining expense in this category is the Savings Association
Insurance Fund (SAIF) assessment on deposits that First Tennessee acquired in
1992 and a small FDIC administrative fee.
Excluding purchase acquisitions since the second quarter of 1995,
operating expense grew 1 percent in the retail/commercial bank and 26 percent
in the specialty lines of business.
YEAR-TO-DATE COMPARISON:
For the first six months of 1996, noninterest expense increased 18
percent over the same period last year with the purchase acquisitions and
one-time acquisition costs not materially impacting this increase. Excluding
purchase acquisitions and one-time acquisition costs, operating expenses grew 1
percent in the retail/commercial bank and 35 percent in the specialty lines of
business for the same reasons noted above. In addition, during the first
quarter of 1996, mortgage banking recognized approximately $2 million related
to back office consolidation.
CAPITAL
Shareholders' equity at June 30, 1996, was $892.3 million, an increase
of $65.6 million, or 8 percent, from June 30, 1995. As a result of stock
repurchased in the latter part of 1995, the period-end equity to assets ratio
declined from 7.12 percent to 6.89 percent (June 1995 to June 1996). From
time to time, First Tennessee will evaluate the level of capital and take
action designed to generate or use the capital (i.e., acquisitions, stock
buybacks, etc.) to maximize the benefit to shareholders. At June 30, 1996, the
corporation's Tier 1 capital ratio was 8.78 percent, the Total capital ratio
was 11.66 percent and the Leverage ratio was 6.37 percent. On June 30, 1996,
First Tennessee's bank subsidiaries had sufficient capital to qualify as
well-capitalized institutions under the regulatory capital standards.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ACTIVITY
In the normal course of business, First Tennessee is a party to
financial instruments that are not required to be reflected on a balance sheet.
First Tennessee enters into transactions involving these instruments to meet
the financial needs of its customers and manage its own exposure to
fluctuations in interest rates. These instruments are categorized into those
"Held or issued for purposes other than broker/dealer operations" and those
"Held or issued for broker/dealer operations" as noted in the Off-Balance Sheet
Financial Instruments table.

affirmation of his good faith belief that he has met
the standard of conduct described in Section 2 herein;
(2) The officer furnishes to the Corporation a written
undertaking, executed personally or on his behalf, to
