     generally accepted accounting principles and to general practice within
     the banking, mortgage banking, and leasing industries.  The following is a
     description of the more significant of these policies.

          BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts
     of the Company and its subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany
     accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  Certain
     reclassifications were made to the 1993 and 1992 consolidated financial
     statements to conform to the 1994 presentation.

          INVESTMENT SECURITIES

     The Company implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
     115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,"
     at December 31, 1993.  This Statement requires the classification of debt
     and equity securities into three categories: held-to-maturity,
     available-for-sale, or trading.  Held-to-maturity securities are those
     which management has the intent and ability to hold to maturity.
     Available-for-sale securities are those securities which management may
     sell prior to maturity as a result of changes in interest rates,
     prepayment factors, or as part of the Company's overall asset and
     liability management strategy.  Trading securities are those securities
     bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near
     term.  The Company currently has no securities designated as trading.

     Held-to-maturity securities are recorded at cost, adjusted for
     amortization of premium and accretion of discount, using the effective
     interest method.  Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair
     value.  Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related income tax
     effect, on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and
     are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity until
     realized.

     A decline in the market value of any available-for-sale or
     held-to-maturity security that is deemed other than temporary is charged
     to earnings resulting in the establishment of a new cost basis for the
     security.

     Interest and dividend income are recognized when earned.  Realized gains
     and losses on securities are included in noninterest income.  Gains and
     losses on the sale of securities are recognized using the specific
     identification method.


                                                                   (Continued)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

     Included as investment securities are mortgage-backed and related
     securities.  Premiums and discounts on these securities are amortized and
     accreted using the interest method over the remaining estimated life of
     the security.  Actual prepayment experience, which may vary from the
     original estimates, is periodically reviewed and related amortization and
     accretion is adjusted accordingly.

          LOANS AND LEASES

     Loans are reported at the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned
     income.  Interest income is accrued as earned.  Loan origination fees, net
     of direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as interest
     income over the life of the loan using the effective interest method.  All
     other loan related fees are recorded as noninterest income.

     Lease financing receivables are carried at the aggregate of lease payments
     receivable plus estimated residual values, less unearned income.  Revenue
     is recognized on a basis calculated to achieve a constant rate of return
     on the outstanding net receivable balance.

     Loans which are past due 90 days are placed on nonaccrual status unless
     management considers the delinquency to be temporary, in which case
     accrual status is maintained.  At the time a loan is placed on nonaccrual
     status, unpaid interest is charged against interest income of the current
     period.  Interest on nonaccrual loans is recognized as income only when
     cash is actually received and the Company expects to recover the principal
     balance of the loan.  Loans are returned to accrual status when factors
     indicating doubtful collectibility no longer exist.

          ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

     The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered by
     management to be adequate to provide for anticipated losses in the current
     loan portfolio.  The provision for loan losses is based on management's
     judgment as to the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, after
     considering a variety of factors which include experience related to loan
     losses, scrutiny of individual credit and risk factors, results of
     regulatory agency reviews, and present and expected economic conditions in
     the Company's market area.  Actual loan losses may vary from current
     estimates.

          PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT

     Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation
     and amortization.  Depreciation and amortization are charged to
     noninterest expense primarily on a straight-line basis over the shorter of
     the estimated useful lives of the assets or terms of the leases.
     Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

          STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS

     For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company has defined cash and
     cash equivalents to include cash on hand, noninterest-bearing deposits,
     and federal funds sold.




                                                                     (Continued)

          GOODWILL

     Goodwill, which represents the excess of purchase price over fair value of
     net assets acquired, is being amortized on a straight-line basis over
     periods of 40 years for acquisitions prior to 1984, 25 years for
     acquisitions completed in 1984, 20 years for acquisitions completed during
     1985 through 1990, and 15 years for acquisitions after 1990.  The Company
     assesses the recoverability of its goodwill through review of various
     economic factors on a periodic basis to determine whether impairment, if
     any, exists.

          INTEREST RATE PRODUCTS

     The Company enters into interest rate swap and interest rate option
     contracts to limit its exposure to interest rate fluctuations.  The
     interest differential applicable to interest rate swaps, which hedge
     specific assets and liabilities, is recorded as an adjustment to the yield
     of the underlying assets and liabilities over the lives of the contracts.

          INCOME TAXES

     Income tax expense represents the current and deferred income tax
     consequences of all events that have been recognized in the financial
     statements, as measured by the provisions of enacted tax laws.  Deferred
     income taxes represent an undiscounted amount of taxes payable or
     refundable in future years as a result of differences between the bases of
     assets and liabilities for financial reporting and tax purposes as of each
     year end.

     The Company implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
     109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," (Statement No. 109) on January 1,
     1993.  The change in the method of accounting for income taxes resulted in
     no cumulative effect to be reported in the year of implementation.  Prior
     to adoption of Statement No. 109, the Company accounted for income taxes
     under Statement No. 96.  Both statements use a balance sheet approach to
     recognizing deferred taxes.

     The Company and its subsidiaries file consolidated Federal and state
     income tax returns.  The provision for income taxes of the Company and
     each subsidiary is calculated as if each company filed separate returns,
     except that the benefits of losses are allocated to the companies
     incurring such losses to the extent that the losses reduce consolidated
     taxable income.

          NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

     Net income per common share is calculated by dividing income applicable to
     common stock by the average number of common shares outstanding, increased
     by common stock equivalents, during the period.  Common stock equivalents
     are the number of shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and stock
     purchase agreements, less common shares assumed purchased by the Company
     with the proceeds received upon the exercise of stock options and
     conversion of stock purchase agreements.




                                                                     (Continued)

          MORTGAGE BANKING

     Mortgage banking income consists primarily of servicing fee income
     recorded on the accrual method, and loan origination fees from loans sold.
     Origination costs associated with loan applications are expensed as period
     costs.  Mortgage loan servicing rights are amortized over the estimated
     lives of the related loans in proportion to the recognition of estimated
     net servicing income.

(2)  ACQUISITIONS

     On March 31, 1994, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of
     Hi-Bancorp, Inc. and GNP Bancorp, Inc. and minority shares of Bank of
     Highwood in a cash transaction.  Hi-Bancorp, Inc. and GNP Bancorp, Inc.
     are the parent companies of Bank of Highwood, which has been renamed First
     Colonial Bank/Highwood (Highwood), and New Century Bank, which has been
     renamed First Colonial Bank/Mundelein (Mundelein), respectively.  The
     combined purchase price was approximately $29.5 million and was financed
     with $28 million of long-term debt.

     The acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of
     accounting and as such the Company's operating results for 1994 include
     the results of Highwood and Mundelein since April 1, 1994.  The purchase
     accounting adjustments associated with the acquisitions are being
     amortized or accreted using the straight-line or interest method, as
     appropriate, over the related assets' estimated useful lives.

(3)  CASH AND NONINTEREST-BEARING DEPOSITS

     Included in the cash and noninterest bearing deposits balance are amounts
     required to be deposited with the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago.  These
     reserve balances vary depending on the level of customer deposits in the
     Company's subsidiary banks.  Balances required by the Federal Reserve were
     approximately $5.1 million at December 31, 1994.  The Company also
     maintains compensating balances, which are not legally restricted, with a
     correspondent bank.  These compensating balances are maintained in lieu of
     fees for correspondent banking services.  At December 31, 1994,
     compensating balances were approximately $6.8 million

(4)  INTEREST-BEARING DEPOSITS WITH FOREIGN BANKS

     The Company routinely places investments with foreign banks, United States
     branches of foreign banks, or foreign branches of United States Banks.
     The Company limits these investments to those foreign banks which receive
     a Standard & Poor's or Moody's rating of A2/P2 or better.  In addition,
     country risks are carefully considered and per bank and per country limits
     are established and continually monitored.  All foreign interest-bearing
     deposits are U.S. dollar denominated and




                                                                     (Continued)

     are classified as money market investments on the consolidated balance
     sheets.  The Company is not subject to any risk of loss from foreign
     currency transactions.  At December 31, 1994, the Company had no foreign
     deposits outstanding.  At December 31, 1993, the Company had $1.0 million
     in foreign deposits outstanding.  Interest income recorded on foreign
     investments amounted to $27,000, $279,000, and $2.5 million in 1994, 1993,
     and 1992, respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

     The Company has loans outstanding to certain of its directors and
     executive officers and to companies in which a director or executive
     officer has at least a 10% beneficial interest.  These loans were made in
     the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms, including
     interest rate and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for
     comparable transactions with other customers and did not involve more than
     the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features.
     Loans to such related parties whose outstanding balance exceed $60,000
     approximated $49.1 million at December 31, 1994 and $45.0 million at
     December 31, 1993.  During 1994, $18.4 million of related party loans were
     made and repayments totaled $14.3 million, including decreases of $814,000
     due to executive officers' and directors' separation from the Company.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

     Depreciation and amortization amounted to $4.5 million in 1994, $4.2
     million in 1993, and $3.9 million in 1992.  Premises under capital leases
     are shown net of accumulated amortization of $337,000 and $636,000 at
     December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

     The Company is obligated under several noncancelable leases for premises.
     Lease terms expire between 1995 and 2038.  The most significant of these
     is a 25-year sale and leaseback transaction entered into on January 4,
     1988 between the Company and one of the Company's directors and members of
     his family. Rental payments under this lease were $1.2 million in 1994,
     and increase annually based upon the change in the Consumer Price Index.
     The Company's banking subsidiaries financed 83% of the purchase, which was
     at appraised value, with a mortgage that requires monthly payments, based
     on a 30-year amortization over a 20-year term.  The outstanding mortgage
     balance as of December 31, 1994 was $8.8 million.  Interest is calculated
     at a fixed rate of 10.5% for 10 years with the rate reset at the start of
     the eleventh year within a range of 9% - 12%.

     The future minimum annual rental commitments under operating and capital
     leases are as follows (in thousands):

     On March 31, 1994, the Company entered into a $28.0 million term note due
     March 31, 1998.  The term note was used to finance the acquisition of Hi
     Bancorp, Inc. and GNP Bancorp, Inc.  The term note requires minimum
     principal reductions of $6.0 million on March 31, 1995, March 31, 1996,
     and March 31, 1997 and $10.0 million on March 31, 1998.  On July 6, 1994,
     the Company elected to pre-pay the term note by $10.0 million.  The
     interest rate on this term note floats with prime or LIBOR, or a
     combination thereof.  The average interest rate paid in 1994 was 5.47%;
     the interest rate in effect at December 31, 1994 is 7.38%.

     The 14% subordinated capital notes were issued in tandem with mandatory
     stock purchase agreements pursuant to which the holder agrees to purchase
     Class B common stock at a price of $4.60 per share.  The holders are
     obligated to purchase Class B common stock equal to the amount of notes
     they hold any time prior to October 17, 1996.  Interest is payable
     quarterly.  Failure by the Company to pay interest will not constitute
     default; however, the Company is precluded from paying dividends on its
     common, preference, or preferred shares if any interest is due but unpaid.
     All current note holders are executive officers or directors of the

(13) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

     The Company has outstanding, preference and common stocks.  The following
is a description of their pertinent features.

     Series A Preferred Stock:  In September, 1993, the Company voluntarily
     redeemed all issued and outstanding shares of Series A preferred stock at
     a price of $62.00 per share.  Prior to the redemption, stockholders of
     Series A preferred stock received dividends at an annual rate of $5.50 per
     share.

     Series B Preference Stock:  In March 1994, all the issued and outstanding
     shares of Series B preference stock were converted into 75,000 shares of
     Class A common stock of the Company.  Prior to the conversion,
     stockholders of Series B preference stock received an annual dividend of
     $13.60 in 1993 and 1992. No dividends were paid in 1994.

     Series C Preference Stock:  In April, 1992, the Company issued 40,250
     shares of Series C preference stock, represented by 805,000 depositary
     shares, to reduce existing short-term debt and to fund future
     acquisitions.  Each share receives annual dividends of $35.00, payable
     quarterly, and is convertible into 27.78 shares of Class A common stock.
     During 1994, a total of 1,475 shares were converted into 40,975 shares of
     the Company's Class A common stock.  Each share may be redeemed by the
     Company after June 30, 1997 at $500 per share, its liquidation value, and
     is junior to any outstanding shares of Series A preferred stock and is on
     parity with the Series B preference stock.


                                                                    (Continued)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

     Preference stock may be issued in one or more series by the Board of
     Directors of the Company, which is given authority to fix the number of
     shares, the distinctive designation of the series, dividend rights,
     dividend rates, voting rights (if any), redemption provisions, liquidation
     preferences, and other rights and restrictions.

     Common Stock:  The Company maintains two classes of common stock, Class A
     and Class B.  The Class A common stockholders are entitled to a
     distribution of $9.00 per share before any distribution is made to Class B
     common stockholders.  If any assets remain after distributing $9.00 per
     share to Class B common stockholders, Class A and Class B common
     stockholders will share ratably in any remaining assets.  Class A common
     stockholders are entitled to one vote per share, and Class B common
     stockholders are entitled to 20 votes per share on all matters in which
     Class A and Class B common stockholders vote together.  Matters in which
     Class A common stockholders vote separately are proposals to issue Class B
     common stock, except as part of pro rata stock splits and stock dividends;
     the election of the Class A director; any merger, liquidation or business
     combination where the consideration per share for holders of Class A
     common stock is different from the consideration per share for holders of
     Class B common stock; and as otherwise permitted by law.  A preferential
     dividend equal to at least 120% of any cash dividend paid on each share of
     Class B common stock must be paid to holders of Class A common stock.
     Each share of Class B common stock is convertible into one share of Class
     A common stock at any time.

     As of December 31, 1994, 2,033,000 shares of Class A common stock were
     reserved for the issuance of shares under the Company's stock option
     plans.

(14) STOCK OPTIONS

     The Company issues stock options to its directors, officers, and other key
     individuals under several stock option plans.  A total of 3,286,000 shares
     of common stock have been reserved for issuance under the plans with
     1,253,000 shares issued to date.  Stock options may be granted as
     incentive or nonqualified options, are granted at market value
     (stockholders who own 10% or more of the voting stock of the Company
     receive incentive stock options at 110% of market value), and have various
     vesting and expiration dates.



                                                                    (Continued)

(15) DIVIDEND LIMITATIONS

     The Company operates its bank subsidiaries at capital levels greater than
     the minimums required by bank regulators under the core leverage and
     risk-based capital measurements.  This policy guides the level of
     dividends that can be paid to the Company by the bank subsidiaries.  As of
     December 31, 1994, $5.1 million is available for the payment of dividends
     by the bank subsidiaries without requiring regulatory approval or
     violating the Company's more restrictive capital policies.

(16) BENEFIT PLANS

     The Company's pension plan existed as a defined benefit plan until October
     31, 1989, the effective date of the plan curtailment.  Under the
     curtailment, a plan participant's account is maintained by the plan and is
     accessible only when the participant attains age 59-1/2 or upon separation
     from the Company.  Payouts under the plan are made at the greater of the
     participant's account balance on the date of curtailment increased
     annually by 8%, or an amount based upon the accrued benefit as of the date
     of the curtailment discounted at the current Pension Benefit Guaranty
     Corporation's rate.

     In connection with the pension plan curtailment, the Company established a
     profit sharing plan which is comprised of an Employee Stock Ownership Plan
     (ESOP) and a Profit Sharing and Thrift Plan (401(k) Plan).  The Company
     contributes a percentage of an employee's annual base salary, as
     determined by the Board of Directors, to the ESOP and to the 401(k) Plan.
     Since the inception of the plan, the annual rate of contribution has been
     4%.  The 401(k) Plan also permits voluntary employee contributions of up
     to 10% of annual base salary.  The Company adds a matching contribution of
     20% on the first 6% of base salary contributed by each employee.
     Effective January 1, 1994, the ESOP was combined with the 401(k) Plan and
     was renamed the First Colonial Bankshares Corporation Retirement Plan.
     The Company's total contribution to the profit sharing plan was $1.0
     million, $848,000, and $763,000 for 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(17) OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

     To meet the financing needs of customers and to reduce exposure to
     fluctuations in interest rates, the Company is a party to financial
     instruments with off-balance sheet risk.  These financial instruments
     include commitments to extend credit, loans sold with recourse, standby
     letters of credit, financial guarantees, and interest rate swaps.  Those
     instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest
     risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance
     sheets.  The contractual or notional amounts of these instruments reflect
     the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of
     financial instruments.  The Company's off-balance sheet financial
     instruments at December 31, are as follows (in thousands):

<TABLE>

        Loans sold with recourse                                                      5,728            6,244
     Financial instruments whose notional or contract amounts
     exceed the amount of credit risk:
        Interest rate swap agreements                                                40,750           71,500
                                                                                 ==========          =======
</TABLE>

     For commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and financial
     guarantees written, the Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of
     nonperformance by the other party is represented by the contractual
     notional amount of those instruments.  The Company uses the same credit
     policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for
     on-balance sheet instruments.  For interest rate swap transactions, the
     Company controls the credit risk through credit approvals, limits, and
     monitoring procedures.

     A commitment to extend credit is an agreement to lend to a customer as
     long as there is no violation of any condition established in the
     contract.  Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other
     termination clauses and may require payment of a fee.  Since some of the
     commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total
     commitment and amounts do not necessarily represent future cash
     requirements.  The Company evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a
     case-by-case basis.  The amount of collateral obtained, if any, is based
     on management's credit evaluation of the borrower.  Collateral held varies
     but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment,
     and income-producing commercial properties.

     Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written are conditional
     commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a
     customer to a third party.  The credit risk involved in issuing letters of
     credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan
     facilities to customers.  The Company requires collateral supporting those
     commitments when deemed necessary.


                                                                    (Continued)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

     Loans sold with recourse represent a portion of loan sold to permanent
     investors and serviced by the Company's mortgage banking operation and
     leases sold by Mid-States.  Collateral represents property upon which the
     mortgage loans or equipment lease financing arrangements were originally
     made.

     The Company enters into a variety of interest rate swap agreements as a
     means of controlling its interest rate exposure within the investment,
     loan and deposit portfolios.  Interest rate swap transactions generally
     involve the exchange of fixed and floating rate interest payments without
     the exchange of the underlying principal amounts.  The differential to be
     paid or received is accrued and recognized as an adjustment to interest
     income or expense.  These agreements involve not only the risk of dealing
     with counterparties and their ability to meet the terms of the contracts
     but also the interest rate risk associated with unmatched positions.
     Notional principal amounts often are used to express the volume of these
     transactions, but the amounts potentially subject to credit risk are much
     smaller.  The Company entered into one agreement with a notional value of
     $5 million during 1994.  The Company did not enter into any agreements in
     1993.  Agreements with notional values of $35.8 million and $33 million
     either expired or were terminated during 1994 and 1993, respectively.

     The Company operates community banks located throughout the Chicago area,
     which is characterized by a wide range of service and commercial
     industries.  The community lending focus is also diverse, with no
     particular industry or geographic concentration.

(18) LITIGATION

     The Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in various legal
     proceedings arising in the normal course of business.  In the opinion of
     management, based on the advice of legal counsel, the ultimate resolution
     of these proceedings will not have a material effect on the Company's
     financial position.


                                                                    (Continued)

     * The amounts shown under "carrying amount" represent accruals or deferred
     income (fees) arising from these unrecognized financial instruments.

     The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value
     of each class of financial instruments:

     Cash and noninterest-bearing deposits:  The carrying amount is a
     reasonable estimate of fair value.

     Federal funds sold:  The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair
     value.


                                                                    (Continued)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


     Money market investments:  The estimated fair value is determined by bid
     prices published in financial newspapers and quotations from securities
     dealers.

     Investment securities:  The estimated fair value is determined by bid
     prices published in financial newspapers, quotations from securities
     dealers, and quoted market prices of similar instruments.  (Fair values of
     related hedges are included in interest rate swap agreements.)

     Loans:  The fair value of performing fixed rate loans is determined by
     discounting scheduled cash flows through the contractual maturity using
     estimated market rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk
     inherent in various loan portfolios.  For fixed rate loans, other than
     residential real estate loans, the discount rate is the Treasury rate,
     plus 300 to 375 basis points, consistent with the remaining maturities.
     For residential real estate loans, the discount rate is based on the
     Federal National Mortgage Association rate consistent with the remaining
     maturities.  For variable rate performing loans, the carrying amount is a
     reasonable estimate of fair value.

     Fair value for significant nonperforming loans is based on recent external
     appraisals and recent internal estimates of liquidation values.  The fair
     value is then estimated by discounting these future cash flows using the
     estimated market rates, which reflect the risk associated with these cash
     flows, and are consistent with the estimated liquidation date.

     Noninterest-bearing deposits:  The carrying amount is a reasonable
     estimate of fair value.

     Interest-bearing deposits:  The fair value of interest-bearing demand
     deposit savings accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting
     date.  For variable rate certificates and certificates that mature within
     90 days, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.  The
     fair value of fixed rate certificates of deposit is estimated by
     discounting the future cash flows using the Treasury rate consistent with
     the remaining maturities.  In instances where the calculated fair value is
     less than the amount payable, the fair value is presented as the amount
     payable.

     Short-term borrowings:  The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of
     fair value.

     Long-term debt:  The fair value of long-term debt is calculated by
     discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using
     estimated market rates that reflect the current interest rates of similar
     debt instruments.

     Interest rate swap agreements:  The fair value of interest rate swaps is
     calculated by discounting projected cash flows through the estimated
     maturity.  These values represent the estimated amount the Company would
     receive or pay to terminate the contracts.


                                                                    (Continued)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

     Commitments:  The fair value of commitments to extend credit, standby
     letters of credit, and financial guarantees is estimated using the fees
     currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account
     the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of
     the counterparties.  Because the vast majority of the Company's loan
     commitments are variable or short-term, the carrying amount is a
     reasonable estimate of the fair value.

     Limitations:  Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time,
     based on relevant market information regarding the financial instrument.
     These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result
     from offering for sale the Company's entire portfolio of financial
     instruments, or any subset thereof.  Because no market exists for a
     significant portion of the Company's financial instruments, fair value
     estimates are based on judgments regarding current economic conditions,
     risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors.
     These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and
     matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with
     precision.  Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the
     estimates.

     Fair value estimates are based on existing on and off balance sheet
     financial instruments, without attempting to estimate the value of
     anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that
     are not considered financial instruments.  Significant assets not
     considered financial instruments include the Company's mortgage banking,
     investment services, leasing and trust operations, as well as property,
     equipment, and goodwill.  In addition, the tax ramifications related to
     the recognition of unrealized gains and losses can have a significant
     effect on fair value and have not been considered in these estimates.


                                                                    (Continued)

     depositary share representing an interest in the Company's Series C
     preference stock was converted into one depositary share representing an

                          Independent Auditors' Report


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
First Colonial Bankshares Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First Colonial
Bankshares Corporation (Company) and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and
1993, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 1994.  These consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of First Colonial
Bankshares Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in
the three-year period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 1, the Company changed its method of accounting for
investments to adopt the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards
Board's Statement No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities," at December 31, 1993.
