Report of Independent Auditors
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Worthen Banking Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Worthen
Banking Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and
the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and
cash flows for the years then ended. 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
Worthen Banking Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and
1993, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the
years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
We previously audited and reported on the consolidated financial
statements of Worthen Banking Corporation and Subsidiaries as of and
for the year ended December 31, 1992, prior to their restatement for
the 1993 pooling of interests. The contribution of Worthen Banking
Corporation and Subsidiaries to total assets represented 79% of the
respective restated total as of December 31, 1992; and, the contribution
of Worthen Banking Corporation and Subsidiaries to net interest income and
net income represented 78% and 90% of the respective restated totals for
1992. Separate financial statements of the other companies included in the
1992 restated consolidated financial statements were audited and reported
on separately by other auditors. We also audited the combination of the
accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the year
ended December 31, 1992, after restatement for the 1993 pooling of
interests; in our opinion, such consolidated statements have been properly
combined on the basis described in Note B of notes to consolidated
financial statements.
As discussed in Note E to the consolidated financial statements, the
Company adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards
Board's Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting
for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, in 1994. Also, as
discussed in Note R to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income
Taxes, in 1993.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Worthen Banking Corporation (The "Company" or "WBC") is a multibank
holding company which offers through its subsidiaries a diversified
range of banking and financial services to retail and commercial
customers. The Company's revenues and net income are derived
principally from its bank subsidiaries. WBC is subject to competition
from other financial institutions. The Company is subject to the
regulations of certain federal agencies and undergoes periodic
examinations by those regulatory authorities. The financial statements
have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
Consolidation:
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Investment Securities:
Effective January 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities" ("Statement 115"). Statement 115 prescribes
classifying investments into three categories: held to maturity
securities, trading securities, and available for sale securities. Held to
maturity securities are debt securities that the Company has the positive
intent and ability to hold to maturity and are reported at cost adjusted
for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Trading
securities are debt and equity securities that are bought and held for the
purpose of selling in the near term and are reported at fair value, with
unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Available for sale
securities are those securities neither classified as held to maturity or
trading and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses
reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity (net of tax
effects). Gains and losses on the sale of available for sale securities
are determined using the specific identification method.
Adoption of Statement 115 resulted in an increase of $544,000 to the
Company's stockholders' equity as of January 1, 1994, representing the
unrealized appreciation, net of taxes, for those securities having a
fair value of approximately $197,000,000 classified by the Company as
available for sale, previously carried at amortized cost. The unrealized
valuation on available for sale securities decreased during 1994 to a
net unrealized loss of $3,663,000 as of December 31, 1994. The Company
has no securities deemed to be trading securities.
Mortgage Warehouse Loans Held for Sale:
Mortgage warehouse loans held for sale consist solely of real estate
loans held for resale by the Company's mortgage banking subsidiary.
Mortgage warehouse loans held for sale are valued at the lower of cost
or market on an aggregate basis.
Revenue Recognition:
Interest on loans other than installment loans is credited to
operations when earned on the simple interest method. Interest on
installment loans is credited to operations when earned on either the
simple interest method or the sum of the years' digits method, depending
on the terms of the loan agreement. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status
when, in the opinion of management, the collection of additional interest
is unlikely or a specified loan meets the criteria for nonaccrual status
established by regulatory authority - when principal or interest is in
default for 90 days or more unless the loans are well-secured and in the
process of collection. No interest is recorded on nonaccrual loans unless
principal payments are current, the loan is well-secured, and cash is
received. A loan remains on nonaccrual status until the loan is current as
to payment of both principal and interest and the borrower demonstrates
the ability to remain current on payments.
Lease Financing:
In prior years the Company provided equipment financing to its
customers through a variety of lease arrangements. Direct financing
leases are carried at the aggregate of lease payments receivable plus
estimated residual values. Unearned income on direct financing leases
is amortized over the lease terms resulting in an approximately level
rate of return.
Allowance for Loan Losses:
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level management
believes is adequate to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
Management's determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on
the ongoing evaluation of internally identified problem loans, historical
loan loss experience, current economic conditions, volume, growth and
composition of the loan portfolio, the estimated value of underlying
collateral and other relevant factors.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114, "Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan ("Statement 114")." Statement 114 was
amended by the FASB in October 1994 with the issuance of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures." Statement
114, as amended, prescribes the recognition criterion for loan
impairment and the measurement methods for certain impaired loans and
loans whose terms are modified in troubled-debt restructurings.
Statement 114 prescribes that a loan is impaired when it is probable
that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due, both
principle and interest, according to the contractual terms of the loan
agreement. When measuring impairment, the expected future cash flows of
an impaired loan are required to be discounted at that loan's effective
interest rate. Alternatively, impairment can be measured by reference to
an observable market price, if one exists, or the fair value of the
collateral for a collateral-dependent loan.
Statement 114 must be adopted in 1995. Upon adoption, the impact of
initially applying Statement 114 will be recorded as a provision for
the loan losses as required by Statement 114. Adoption of this standard
is expected to have no material effect on the Company's consolidated
financial statements.
Premises and Equipment:
Premises and equipment owned by the Company are stated at cost, less
accumulated depreciation and amortization. Premises and equipment
leased by the Company under capital leases are stated at an amount
equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments during the lease
term less accumulated amortization. The provision for depreciation and
capital lease amortization (included in depreciation and amortization
expense) is computed generally by the straight-line method.
Properties Acquired in Settlement of Loans:
Properties acquired in settlement of loans, included in Other Assets in
the consolidated financial statements, consist of properties acquired
through foreclosure or otherwise in settlement of debt. These properties
are initially recorded at the lower of cost or current fair market value
determined by appraisal at foreclosure. Losses arising from the
acquisition of such properties are charged against the allowance for loan
losses. Carrying values are subsequently reduced through a charge to
operations when current appraisals indicate a decline in value. At
December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, these properties amounted to
$1,966,000, $4,842,000 and $8,076,000, respectively.
Excess Costs of Purchased Subsidiaries:
Unamortized costs of purchased subsidiaries in excess of the fair value
of underlying net tangible assets acquired are included in other assets
in the consolidated financial statements and aggregated $21,178,000,
$23,080,000 and $15,481,000 (net of accumulated amortization of
$26,703,000, $24,927,000 and $23,980,000) at December 31, 1994, 1993
and 1992, respectively. These costs (goodwill) are being amortized by
the straight-line method over 15 and 25-year periods for purchases after
1982 and over a 40-year period for purchases prior to 1983.
Income Taxes:
In February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income
Taxes" ("Statement 109"). Under the asset and liability method of
Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years
in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date.
Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement 109 and has
reported the cumulative effect of that change in the method of accounting
for income taxes in the 1993 consolidated statement of earnings.
The Company previously used the asset and liability method under
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 96 ("Statement 96").
Under the asset and liability method of Statement 96, deferred tax
assets and liabilities were recognized for all events that had been
recognized in the financial statements. Under Statement 96, the future
tax consequences of recovering assets or settling liabilities at their
financial statement carrying amounts were considered in calculating
deferred taxes. Generally, Statement 96 prohibited consideration of any
other future events in calculating deferred taxes.

Cash Equivalents:
For presentation of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash equivalents
include cash and amounts due from banks.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
Fair value estimates, methods, and assumptions are set forth in the
following notes to the consolidated financial statements. The carrying
amounts for cash and due from banks, interest bearing deposits with
other banks and federal funds sold and securities purchased under
agreement to resell approximate fair value because of their short
maturities and they do not present unanticipated credit concerns. Fair
value estimates are based on relevant market information and information
about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium
or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the
Company's entire holding of a particular financial instrument. Because no
market exists for a significant portion of the Company's financial
instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future
expected loss experience, 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. For example, the Company has a substantial trust
operation that contributes net fee income annually. The trust operation is
not considered a financial instrument, and its value has not been
incorporated into the fair value estimates. Other significant assets and
liabilities that are not considered financial assets or liabilities
include the mortgage banking operation, deferred tax benefits, and
property, plant and equipment. In addition, the tax ramifications related
to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a
significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered.
Income Per Share:
Per common share amounts were computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.
Reclassifications:
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
current year presentation. Such reclassifications have no effect on net
earnings for 1993 and 1992.
NOTE B - ACQUISITIONS
On January 31, 1992, the Company purchased 100% of the common stock of
First National Bank, Fayetteville, Arkansas from One National BancShares,
Inc. for $15,750,000 in cash and the issuance of 1,200,000 shares of the
Company's common stock. For the year ended December 31, 1991, First
National Bank, Fayetteville reported total assets of $252,237,000, net
interest income of $10,587,000 and net income of $3,279,000. Substantially
all the assets and liabilities of First National Bank, Fayetteville and
Worthen National Bank of Northwest Arkansas were combined as of the date
of acquisition. This acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and the
results of operations of the bank are included in the Company's 1992
consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The excess
of the purchase price over the recorded value of the net assets acquired
is $5.4 million and is being amortized over 15 years using the straight
line method. The proforma unaudited results of operations for 1992,
assuming that the acquisition of FNB-Fayetteville had been consummated on
January 1, 1992, would have been as follows:

On May 7, 1993, the Company issued 4,550,000 shares of its common stock
to acquire all the outstanding common stock of The Union of Arkansas
Corporation ("Union"), an Arkansas bank-holding company. The business
combination has been accounted for as a pooling-of-interests combination
and, accordingly, the Company's historical consolidated financial
statements presented in this report have been restated to include the
accounts and results of operations of Union as if the companies had always
been combined. On December 31, 1992, Union reported total assets of
$713,474,000.

On September 10, 1993, the Company acquired 100% of First Bentonville
Bancshares, Inc., the parent corporation of First Bank of Bentonville,
Arkansas ("FirstBank"). WBC paid approximately $3.9 million in cash,
$4.1 million in debt repayment and 250,000 newly-issued shares of WBC's
common stock. For the year ended December 31, 1992, FirstBank reported
total assets of $88,546,000, net interest income of $2,826,000 and net
income of $805,000. FirstBank was merged into Worthen National Bank of
Northwest Arkansas on October 31, 1993. This acquisition was accounted
for as a purchase and the results of operations of FirstBank are included
in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of
acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the recorded value of
the net assets acquired is $8.4 million and is being amortized over 15
years using the straight line method. The proforma results of operations
for 1993 and 1992, assuming that the acquisition of FirstBank had been

NOTE C - RESTRICTIONS ON CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS
The Company's bank subsidiaries are required to maintain reserve
balances with the Federal Reserve Bank. The average amount of those
reserve balances for the year ended December 31, 1994 was approximately
$46,611,000.
NOTE D - RELATED PARTIES
The Company and its subsidiaries have granted loans to certain
officers, directors and principal stockholders of the Company and its
subsidiaries and to their associates. The aggregate dollar amount of these
loans was $105,984,000, $78,665,000 and $67,325,000 at December 31, 1994,
1993 and 1992, respectively. During 1994, $144,965,000 of new loans were
made and repayments totaled $117,646,000. In the opinion of management,
related party loans are made on substantially the same terms, including
interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time of
comparable transactions with unrelated persons and do not involve more
than normal risk of collectibility.

The fair value of investment securities, except certain obligations of
states and political subdivisions, is estimated based on bid prices
published in financial newspapers or bid quotations received from
securities dealers. The fair value of certain obligations of states and
political subdivisions is not readily available through market sources
other than dealer quotations, so fair value estimates are based on quoted
market prices of similar instruments, adjusted for differences between the
quoted instruments and the instruments being valued.
Investment securities with a carrying value of approximately
$552,918,000, $505,452,000 and $525,783,000 were pledged as collateral
to secure public deposits and for other purposes at December 31, 1994,
1993 and 1992, respectively. There are no investments in securities of
issuers other than the U.S. Government, U. S. Government Agencies or
government sponsored enterprises for which aggregate book value exceeds
ten percent of equity capital as of December 31, 1994. Collateralized
mortgage obligations are presented at their stated, scheduled maturity.

NOTE L - STOCK OPTIONS
The Company grants stock options and/or stock appreciation rights under
its 1984 stock option plan, as amended, and its 1993 stock option plan
to key officers and employees of the Company and subsidiaries at prices no
less than the market price of the Company's common shares on the date of
grant.
<TABLE>
Transactions in stock options are as follows:

--------------------------------
Outstanding, December 31 609,180 685,214 529,675
--------------------------------
</TABLE>
Generally, stock options are exercisable in specified increments over a
nine or ten year period and expire ten years after date of grant;
certain options become exercisable immediately upon occurrence of events
specified in the grant. The exercise price may be paid in cash, in
already-owned shares, or in a combination of both. At December 31, 1994,
353,536 options were exercisable at prices from $8.75 to $28.31 per
share; the weighted average price was $13.66.
In 1987, stock appreciation rights for 115,000 shares and an associated
grant of 100,000 options were cancelled and reissued at a price of
$8.75. During 1991, the expiration of these rights and options was
extended an additional five years. The rights are exercisable only for
cash limited to the amount of income tax incurred by the optionee upon
exercise of the options and rights, as determined by a formula in the
grant. The rights are exercisable over a specific period or within one
year of a "taxable event," as defined in the grant. At December 31,
1994, 115,000 rights were outstanding and exercisable. Compensation
expense of $246,000 and $400,000 was recorded in 1994 and 1992,
respectively, for the difference between exercisable stock appreciation
rights and the market price of these instruments. No such compensation
expense was recognized for 1993.
The 1984 plan which authorized grants of options and rights for an
aggregate of 750,000 shares terminated in 1994. Therefore, no additional
grants will be made under the 1984 plan. The 1993 plan authorized grants
of options and rights for an aggregate of 720,000 shares. At December 31,
1994, options and rights for 522,650 shares were available to be granted
under the 1993 plan. Under the Plans, upon a change in control of the
Company (see Note V), all of the outstanding, unvested stock options at
the date of change in control will be accelerated and vested.

NOTE N - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
During 1986, the Company instituted a defined contribution savings and
profit sharing plan to replace its defined benefit pension plan, which
was terminated effective December 31, 1985. All employees are eligible
to participate in the defined contribution plan upon attaining a minimum
age and period of employment. The plan allows eligible employees to
contribute a portion of their salaries to the savings plan and obligates
the Company to make contributions equal to fifty percent of matchable
compensation, which is the amount of participants' contributions that
are not in excess of six percent of their annual compensation determined
in accordance with the plan. Additionally, except in certain
circumstances, the Company must make an annual contribution of the
Company's common stock, or of cash to be used to purchase such stock,
equal to ten percent of participants' matchable compensation. The
Company's expense for contributions it made pursuant to the plan was
$1,460,000, $1,460,000 and $1,374,000 for 1994, 1993 and 1992,
respectively.
The amount, if any, of the Company's discretionary contribution made
pursuant to the profit sharing component of the plan is determined
annually by the Board of Directors. In 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company
made discretionary contributions of $161,000, $306,000 and $229,000,
respectively.
On July 27, 1994, the board of directors of Worthen established two
plans for the benefit of Worthen and its employees. These plans are the
Worthen Banking Corporation 1994 Performance and Retention Plan (the
"Retention Plan") and the Worthen Banking Corporation Key Employee
Protection Plan (the "Protection Plan"). Both of these plans are
designed to retain the services of key employees during the period
leading up to a change of control of Worthen and for a period of years
thereafter. The vesting provisions for each plan are different, but both
plans essentially vest upon the earlier of (i) termination of employment
by Worthen without cause or (ii) termination of employment by the
employee for good reason during the period beginning on August 18, 1994,
and ending on the earlier of the termination of the Merger Agreement
(see Note V) or the expiration of the two-year period immediately
following a change of control. For purposes of these plans, the Merger
described in Note V would constitute a change of control.
Under the Retention Plan, certain of Worthen's key employees are granted
performance and retention units ("PARs"). The PARs are a form of incentive
compensation, the value of which is related to the appreciation and value
of the common stock of Worthen. PARs will vest upon the earlier of any of
the vesting provisions identified above or (i) participant's death or
disability, or (ii) July 27, 1999. PARs terminate and payment is due to
PAR owners thirty days after vesting. The value of PARs is determined by
the relative performance of Worthen's stock as of the change of control
and vesting date, but is not expected to exceed $4 million for the
participants who have been granted PARs as of December 31, 1994.
The Protection Plan was established by the board of directors of Worthen
to retain the services of certain key employees and to ensure their
continued dedication and productivity. The Protection Plan provides that
participants are entitled to receive a severance benefit based upon a
multiple of their base salary together with certain other considerations,
if a "change of control" occurs and either the participant's employment is
terminated without good cause, or the participant terminates his
or her employment for good cause, and, in either case, such termination
occurs during the pendency of an agreement for a change of control or
within the two-year period following the change of control. Benefits to
be paid to the participant are based upon a multiple of the participant's
base salary and also include payment provisions based upon the
participant's age and years of service with Worthen. The multiple may not
exceed 2.99.

NOTE O - REPURCHASE AGREEMENT LOSS/RECOVERY
During 1985, WNBA suffered a loss of $52,147,000 in connection with
repurchase agreements entered into with Bevill, Bresler and Schulman,
Inc. and certain of its affiliates (collectively "BBS") on behalf of a
customer. BBS failed to honor the repurchase agreements and subsequently
filed bankruptcy. The Company collected $20,000,000 initially from the
proceeds of a professional liability insurance policy which was recorded
as a reduction of the loss. The Company entered into an agreement with the
insurance carrier whereby 40% of bankruptcy distribution recoveries
received by WNBA net of 40% of WNBA's expenses incurred in effecting
such recoveries would be paid to the carrier. The Company has an
additional agreement whereby approximately 21% of BBS recoveries are
paid to a separate insurance carrier who provided directors' and
officers' liability coverage to the Company.
WNBA received gross recoveries of $783,000 in 1993. Payments and
accruals of $474,000 in 1993 were paid to insurance carriers in
accordance with the agreements mentioned above. No gross recoveries were
received or payments made during 1992. The distributions received in
1993 are the final recoveries the Company will receive in connection
with the BBS bankruptcy.
The United States District Court approved an amended agreement in 1988
which settled all pending shareholder derivative lawsuits arising from,
among other matters, the repurchase agreement loss involving the Company
and WNBA. The terms of the agreement stipulate a number of actions to be
taken by the Company in regards to related party transactions and
regulatory compliance among other matters. Management believes that the
Company is in compliance with the terms of the settlement agreement.
NOTE P - COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
<TABLE>
Financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk consist of the
following (dollars in thousands):
<CAPTION>
Contract or Notional Amounts
----------------------------------
1994 1993 1992
----------------------------------
<S> <C> <C> <C>
Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk:
Commitments to extend credit $616,633 $552,575 $224,206
Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written 24,556 26,854 13,745
</TABLE>
The financial statements do not reflect various commitments and
contingencies, such as commitments to extend credit, letters of credit,
guarantees and liabilities for assets held in trust, all of which arise
in the normal course of the Company's business. The Company's exposure
to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the
financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby
letters of credit and financial guarantees written 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 balance-sheet instruments. Commitments generally have fixed
maturity dates, most of which expire within a year, or other termination
clauses and may require payment of a fee. The terms of standby letters of
credit are generally less than five years. Fees are recognized as income
on the straight-line method over the term of the debt guaranteed. Unearned
fee income was not material at December 31, 1994, 1993 or 1992. Potential
losses on standby letters of credit are provided for in the allowance for
loan losses. The amount and type of collateral obtained upon extension of
credit is based upon credit policy. Collateral held varies but may include
accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and
income-producing commercial properties. The Company has a diversified
loan portfolio with no concentrations of credit risk deemed significant.
Most of the Company's lending activity is with customers located within
the State of Arkansas and the Austin, Texas area.
The fair value of commitments to extend credit, standby letters of
credit and financial guarantees would be estimated using the fees
currently charged for similar agreements. Due to the insignificance of
the fees that would currently be charged for such agreements and the
short term nature of current agreements, no fair value estimates have
been made for financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the ordinary course of business, there are various legal proceedings
pending against the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates, most of
which are considered litigation incidental to the conduct of business,
including, among other matters, defense of routine corporate, employment,
banking, lender liability and securities related litigation. Management,
after consultation with legal counsel and based upon available facts and
proceedings to date which are preliminary in certain instances, is of the
opinion that the ultimate resolution of these proceedings will have no
material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or future
results of operations of the Company.
NOTE Q - RESTRICTIONS ON SUBSIDIARY DIVIDENDS, LOANS OR ADVANCES
Certain restrictions exist regarding the ability of the bank
subsidiaries to transfer funds to the Company in the form of cash
dividends, loans or advances. The approval of the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC") is required for the Company's national
bank subsidiaries to pay dividends in excess of earnings retained in the
current year plus retained net profits with certain adjustments for the
preceding two years.
Under Federal Reserve regulations, the bank subsidiaries are also
limited as to the amount they may loan to the Company, unless such
loans are collateralized by specified obligations. At December 31,
1994, the maximum amount available for transfer from the banks to the
Company in the form of loans approximated 22% of consolidated equity.
Under current Federal Reserve regulations, the subsidiary banks are
limited to the amount they may loan to other affiliates, including the
Company. Loans to a single affiliate may not exceed 10% and loans to
all affiliates may not exceed 20% of the lender's capital, surplus and
undivided profits after adding back the allowance for loan losses.
NOTE R - INCOME TAXES
<TABLE>
As discussed in Note A, the Company adopted Statement 109 as of January
1, 1993. In adopting Statement 109, the Company recorded income and a
deferred tax asset equal to the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle of $868,000. In order to fully realize the deferred
tax asset recorded at December 31, 1994, the Company will need to generate
future federal taxable income of approximately $43,000,000. Based on the
Company's historical and current taxable income, management believes it is
more likely than not that the Company will generate sufficient future
federal taxable income in the periods in which the existing deductible
temporary differences reverse. The Company has federal taxable income and
pre-tax book income for the years ended as follows:

A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that
some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company
had previously established a valuation allowance for a portion of its
state deferred tax assets. Based upon the levels of state taxable income
in the current year and expected levels of future state taxable income,
management believes it is more likely than not the Company will realize
the existing state deductible temporary differences in future periods. The
valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of January 1, 1993 was
$1,414,000.

NOTE T - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following are the fair value estimates, methods and assumptions for
the Company's financial instruments for which the fair value differs from
the carrying value, except for investment securities which are disclosed
in Note E. See Note P for a discussion of the fair values of financial
instruments with off-balance sheet risk.
Loans:
Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial
characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as commercial,
financial and agricultural, bankers' acceptances and commercial paper;
real estate mortgage, real estate construction, installment and other; and
direct lease financing. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed
and variable rate interest terms and by performing and nonperforming
(nonaccrual) categories. The fair value of performing fixed rate
loans is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the
estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect
the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan. The fair value
of performing variable rate loans is equal to the carrying value of such
loans, due to the regular repricing at market rates. The fair value of
nonperforming loans is based on estimated cash flows discounted using a
rate commensurate with the risk associated with the estimated cash flows.
Assumptions regarding credit risk, cash flows, timing of cash flows, and
discount rates are judgmentally determined using available market and
specific borrower information.

of loans at December 31:

NOTE U - REGULATORY MATTERS
On March 31, 1993, the Company was notified by the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System ("FED") that its approval of the Company's
application to merge with The Union of Arkansas Corporation was given in
reliance upon representations and commitments made to the FED by the
Company, Stephens Group, Inc., and certain Stephens family members in
connection with the application, including representations and commitments
to the effect that Stephens Group, Inc., and its subsidiaries do not and
will not exert control over the management or policies of the Company, and
that Stephens Group, Inc., and its subsidiaries will comply with the
restrictions imposed by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act,
as amended, in connection with any business transacted between subsidiary
banks of the Company and Stephens Group, Inc. Management does not believe
that any of such regulations have been violated and management of the
Company believes that such representations and commitments will not
significantly affect the general business policies or financial
performance of the Company.
In addition, the FED notified the Company in March of 1993 that the
Board has ordered an investigation to review the ownership and control
of the Company for compliance with the Bank Holding Company Act and the
Change in Bank Control Act, including the nature and extent of the
relationships between the Company and Stephens Group, Inc., and its
subsidiaries. The Company has cooperated with the FED in this
investigation. Management of the Company understands that the
investigation is likely to be concluded with respect to the Company in
the very near future and that no action is likely to be taken against
the Company in connection with the investigation.
