1.   The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be
     read in conjunction with Marshall & Ilsley Corporation's ("Corporation")
     1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  The unaudited financial information
     included in this report reflects all adjustments (consisting only of
     normal recurring accruals) which are  necessary for a fair statement of
     the financial position and results of operations as of and for the three
     and six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.  The results of operations
     for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 are not
     necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year.
     Certain amounts in the 1997 consolidated financial statements and
     analyses have been reclassified to conform with the 1998 presentation.

2.   The Corporation has 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized, of
     which the Board of Directors has designated 2,000,000 shares as Series A
     convertible, with a $100 value per share for conversion and liquidation
     purposes.

     The Corporation has 160,000,000 shares of its $1.00 par value common
     stock authorized.

3.   A reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and
     diluted per share computations are as follows (dollars and shares in
     thousands, except per share data):

7.   On March 31, 1997, $16.8 million of the Corporation's 8.5% convertible
     subordinated notes were converted by the holder into 1,922,114 shares of
     the Corporation's common stock.  The common stock acquired by conversion
     of the notes was  exchanged for 168,185 shares of the Corporation's
     Series A convertible preferred stock.  This is a noncash transaction for
     purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.


8.   The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
     restated to give effect to the merger of Advantage Bancorp, Inc.
     ("Advantage") with and into the Corporation.  Certain adjustments have
     been made to conform the presentation of Advantage's financial
     information with that of the Corporation.  In accordance with the terms
     of the merger, which was consummated April 1, 1998, each share of
     Advantage Common Stock was converted into a right to receive 1.2 shares
     of the Corporation's Common Stock (approximately 4.0 million shares) in
     a tax-free reorganization which was accounted for as a pooling of
     interests.

     Net interest income and net income of the previously separate enterprises

9.   Comprehensive Income

     On January 1, 1998, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income."  This
     statement establishes standards for reporting and display of
     comprehensive income and its components in a complete set of financial
     statements.  Comprehensive income is the total of reported net income and
     all other revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under generally
     accepted accounting principles are not includable in reported net income
     but are reflected in shareholders' equity.  The standard permits the
     statement of changes in shareholders' equity to be used and requires
     companies to report comparative totals for comprehensive income in
     interim reports.  The following table presents the Corporation's
     comprehensive income ($000's):

10.  New Accounting Pronouncement

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
     of Financial Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
     Hedging Activities.  The Statement establishes accounting and reporting
     standards requiring that every derivative instrument (including certain
     derivative instruments embedded in contracts) be recorded in the balance
     sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value.  The
     Statement requires that changes in the derivatives fair value be
     recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting
     criteria are met.  Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a
     derivative's gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged
     item in the income statement, and requires that a company must formally
     document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of transactions that
     receive hedge accounting treatment.

     Statement 133 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15,
     1999.  A company may also implement the Statement as of the beginning of
     any quarter after issuance.  Statement 133 cannot be applied
     retroactively.  Statement 133 must be applied to (a) derivative
     instruments and (b) certain derivative instruments embedded in hybrid
     contracts that were issued, acquired, or substantively modified after
     December 31, 1997 (and, at the company's election, before January 1,
     1998).

     To the extent derivative instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting
     treatment, the statement could increase volatility in earnings and other
     comprehensive income. The Corporation believes their existing derivative

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL POSITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS


THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997
- -----------------------------------------
Net income for the second quarter of 1998 amounted to $62.2 million compared to
$59.4 million for the same period in the prior year.  Basic and diluted earnings
per share were $.57 and $.54 respectively for the three months ended June 30,
1998, compared with $.63 and $.58, respectively for the three months ended June
30, 1997. The return on average assets and average equity were 1.21% and 11.86%
for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 and 1.50% and 17.03% for the quarter ended
June 30, 1997.

The Corporation's results of operations and financial position for 1998 include
the effects of the merger with Security Capital Corporation ("Security") which
was completed on October 1, 1997 and accounted for as a purchase.  Security had
approximately $2.2 billion of loans and $2.3 billion of deposits at the time of
merger.

On April 1, 1998, the Corporation completed the merger with Advantage Bancorp,
Inc. ("Advantage") a Kenosha, Wisconsin based savings and loan holding company
by issuing 1.2 shares of the Corporation's Common Stock for each share of
Advantage Common Stock.  The transaction was accounted for as a pooling of
interests.  In conjunction with this transaction, the Corporation recorded a
merger / restructuring charge of approximately $16.3 million ($23.4 million
before-tax).

Operating income for the second quarter of 1998 was $78.5 million and diluted
earnings per share amounted to $.68 per share excluding the above charge.  The
quarterly returns on average equity and assets based on operating income were
14.96% and 1.53%, respectively, for the second quarter.

The table below summarizes the merger / restructuring charge recorded on
April 1, 1998  (amounts in millions):

                                   MERGER / RESTRUCTURING CHARGE

Severance & Benefits                                     $15.4
Investment Advisor & Other Professional Fees               3.1
System Conversion & Contract Cancellation Fees             2.4
Facilities & Equipment                                     1.9
Other                                                      0.6
                                                         ------
                                                         $23.4
                                                         ======

Severance and benefits include non-cash accelerated benefit vesting of $10.4
million for stock options, $1.2 million for an employee stock ownership plan
(ESOP) and $0.4 million for a bank incentive stock plan.  Executive employment
contract payouts were $1.9 million.  Severance and retention payments amounted
to $1.5 million.  Accrued employment contract and severance expenses included
costs for 116 employees that were not given permanent employment with the
Corporation subsequent to the merger.

Investment advisor fees were $2.0 million and other legal, accounting and
consulting fees were $1.1 million.  All professional fees represent amounts
incurred to consummate the merger.

System conversion costs of $1.5 million represent costs associated with the one
time conversion and standardization of Advantage's records to M&I's data
processing systems.  Contract cancellation fees mainly represent fees paid to
service bureaus for early termination of Advantage's long term data processing
contracts.

As part of the merger, duplicative branch, loan production and administrative
facilities will be sold or leases terminated.  In addition, certain excess
furniture, computer and other equipment will be disposed of.

The following table reconciles operating income to operating income before
amortization of intangibles ("tangible operating income").  Amortization
includes amortization of goodwill and core deposit premiums and is net of
negative goodwill accretion and the income tax expense or benefit, if any,
related to each component.  These calculations were specifically formulated by
the Corporation and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported
by other companies.

NET INTEREST INCOME
- -------------------
Net interest income for the second quarter of 1998 amounted to $168.0 million,
an increase of $27.1 million or 19.3% from the $140.9 million reported for the
second quarter of 1997.  The increase in the volume of average earning assets
contributed approximately $84.4 million while the decrease in yield on earning
assets, primarily loans, decreased interest income by approximately $12.1
million.  The increase in the volume of average interest bearing liabilities
contributed approximately $43.5 million and the increase in the cost of interest
bearing liabilities contributed approximately $1.7 million to the increase in
interest expense.  The large changes attributable to volume reflect the effect
of the acquisition of Security in the fourth quarter of 1997.

Average earning assets increased $4.2 billion or 28.6% in the second quarter of
1998 compared to the same period a year ago and increased $.3 billion since the
first quarter of 1998.  Including securitized adjustable rate mortgage loans
(ARMS), average loans grew approximately $3.5 billion or 32.0% compared to the
second quarter of last year and increased 1.3% since the first quarter of 1998.
Average securities, excluding securitized ARMs, increased $774.5 million for the
three months ended June 30, 1998 compared with the same period in the prior year
and increased $58.4 million since the first quarter of 1998.

<PAGE>
Average interest bearing liabilities increased $3.6 billion or 30.1% in the
second quarter of 1998 compared to the same period in 1997 and increased $144.7
million since the first quarter of 1998.  Since the first quarter of 1998,
average interest bearing deposits increased $76.8 million or 0.6% while average
total borrowings increased $67.9 million.  Average noninterest bearing deposits
increased $304.2 million or 13.9% from the quarter ended June 30, 1997 to the
quarter ended June 30, 1998 and $101.8 million from the prior quarter in 1998.

The growth and composition of the Corporation's quarterly average loan portfolio
for the current quarter and previous four quarters are reflected in the
following table.  Securitized ARM loans which are classified in the consolidated
balance sheets as investment securities available for sale are included to
provide a more meaningful comparison ($ in millions):

As previously discussed, the annual growth is largely attributable to the
Security merger.

At the end of the second quarter of 1998, approximately $142 million of ARM
loans were converted into government guaranteed agency pool securities. Through
the first six months of 1998, approximately $259 million of ARM loans were
securitized compared with approximately $218 million in all of 1997.   In
addition, approximately $580 million of securitized ARMs were acquired in the
Security merger.

<PAGE>
Compared with the first quarter of 1998, total consolidated average loans,
leases and securitized ARMs increased $180 million. The growth in commercial and
commercial real estate loans and lease financing receivables of approximately
$412 million was offset by declines in total residential real estate loans and
securitized ARMs and construction loans of $237 million.  The increase in
average commercial loans reflects, in part, the purchase of $102 million of such
loans in the last half of April, 1998.  The decrease in residential real estate
loans and securitized ARMs reflects the effect of increased prepayments
associated with customer refinancings to fixed rate loans in response to the
recent interest rate environment.  Generally, the Corporation sells fixed rate
residential real estate loans in the secondary market. One to four family
residential real estate loans sold to investors amounted to $484 million in the
second quarter of 1998 compared to $106 million in the second quarter of 1997. 
For the six months ended June 30, 1998 sales to investors amounted to $1.0
billion compared to $215 million in the first half of 1997.

</TABLE>

Compared with the first quarter of 1998, average deposit growth amounted to $179
million or 1.2%.  Money market, noninterest bearing and brokered CDs exhibited
the largest growth and accounted for approximately $369 million of the growth
in average deposits.  Offsetting this growth were declines in other CDs and time
deposits of $229 million. This shift in deposit mix reflects, in part, the
maturity of special CD products which were offered at the time of the Security
merger, and had a positive impact on the net interest margin.

The Corporation's consolidated average interest earning assets and interest
bearing liabilities, interest earned and interest paid for the current quarter,
prior quarter and prior year second quarter are presented in the following
table.  Securitized ARM loans that are classified in the balance sheet as
investment securities available for sale are included with loans to make the
comparative information more meaningful.

The net interest margin as a percent of average earning assets declined 28 basis
points since the second quarter of 1997 and decreased 2 basis points from 3.73%
in the first quarter of 1998 to 3.71% in the current quarter. The yield on
average earning assets decreased 9 basis points since the first quarter of 1998.
The yield on loans and securitized ARMs, the largest earning asset, declined 4
basis points which had a negative impact on net interest income of approximately
$1.4 million compared with the first quarter of 1998.  This decline in yield
reflects, in part, continued accelerated run-off of higher yielding loans and
securitized ARMs due to prepayments and refinancings in response to the interest
rate environment.  As a result, the Corporation increased the amortization
associated with the purchase accounting premium assigned to loans and investment
securities acquired in the Security merger.  Net interest income may continue
to be adversely affected if the current prepayment experience continues.  The
cost of interest bearing deposits decreased 6 basis points which reflects the
shift in deposit mix previously discussed along with the reduction of interest
paid on selected deposit account types.  Short-term and long-term borrowing
costs decreased 10 and 8 basis points, respectively, compared with the first
quarter of 1998.

At June 30, 1998, the Corporation had standard receive fixed/pay floating
interest rate swaps and interest rate caps and floors designated as hedges to
manage the interest rate volatility associated with variable rate loans and
variable rate debt.  In addition, the Corporation had callable receive fixed /
pay floating interest rate swaps designated as hedges to offset callable CDs. 

The Corporation's position with respect to interest rate swaps and interest rate
caps and floors at June 30, 1998 consisted of the following ($ in millions):

    Interest Rate Swaps
    -------------------
      Notional Value                                         $600
      Weighted average receive rate                          6.21%
      Weighted average pay rate                              5.69%
      Weighted average remaining term (in years)             2.20
      Estimated fair value                                  $4.77

      Notional Value                                         $295
      Weighted average receive rate                          6.40%
      Weighted average pay rate                              5.51%
      Weighted average remaining term (in years)             7.46
      Estimated fair value                                  $0.46

      Notional Value                                          $50
      Strike Rate                                            5.63%
      Index                                                  5.70%
      Weighted average remaining term (in years)             2.38

      Unamortized premium                                   $0.28


For the three months ended June 30, 1998, the effect on net interest income
resulting from the swaps, net of cap and floor premium amortization, was a
positive $1.2 million compared with a positive $.6 million in the same period
in 1997.

PROVISION FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES AND CREDIT QUALITY
- ------------------------------------------------------
At June 30, 1998, nonperforming assets were $98.4 million compared to $91.3
million at March 31, 1998 and $76.0 million at June 30, 1997.  Nonaccrual loans
and leases, the largest component of nonperforming assets, increased $8.2
million since the first quarter and increased $20.9 million since June 30, 1997.
Other real estate owned decreased $0.7 million and loans and leases past due 90
days or more decreased $0.3 million since the first quarter of 1998.  Compared
to June 30, 1997, renegotiated loans and loans and leases past due 90 days or
more decreased $0.4 million and $0.7 million, respectively. Other real estate
owned increased $2.6 million since June 30, 1997, which is primarily due to
branch closures associated with the Security merger which occurred in the fourth
quarter of 1997.

Net charge-offs in the second quarter of 1998 amounted to $4.3 million or .04%
of average loans and leases compared to net recoveries of $2.0 million or (.06)%
of average loans and leases in the first quarter of 1998 and net charge-offs of
$3.4 million or .13% of average loans and leases in the second quarter of 1997. 
The Corporation's lead bank had one large commercial loan that accounted for
$2.1 million of the charge-offs in the second quarter of 1998.

The allowance for loan and lease losses amounted to $216.0 million or 1.61% of
total loans at June 30, 1998 compared to $215.5 million or 1.63% at March 31,
1998 and $161.4 million or 1.54% at June 30, 1997.  The coverage ratio of the
allowance for loan and lease losses to nonperforming loans and leases was 247%
at June 30, 1998 compared with 270% at March 31, 1998 and 238% at June 30, 1997.

The provision for loan and lease losses amounted to $4.9 million in the second
quarter of 1998 compared to $4.4 million in the second quarter of 1997.  The
increase is primarily due to loan growth.

OTHER INCOME
- ------------
Total other income in the second quarter of 1998 amounted to $184.5 million, an
increase of $43.7 million or 31.0%, compared to $140.8 million in the same
period last year.

Data  processing revenue increased $16.8 million or 20.4% from $82.3 million in
the second quarter of 1997 to $99.1 million in the current quarter. Processing 
revenue increased $7.4 million or 12.4%.  Software revenue increased $5.9
million or 48.9%.  Conversion fees increased $3.7 million.  All other revenue
including buyout fees, which can vary from period to period, were relatively
unchanged.  Compared to the first quarter of 1998, revenue from data processing
services increased $2.3 million or 2.3%.

Trust services revenue amounted to $22.0 million in the second quarter of 1998,
an increase of $3.2 million or 17.3% compared to $18.8 million in the second
quarter of 1997.  All components of trust services revenue experienced an
increase led by personal trust fees and corporate trust fees which  each
increased $1.2 million over the prior year.

Other customer services revenue amounted to $37.9 million in the second quarter
of 1998 compared with $38.2 million in the first quarter of 1998 and $31.1
million in the second quarter of 1997. Other customer services  revenue in the
first and second quarters of 1998 include the effects of the Security merger.
The decrease in revenue in the current quarter compared to the prior quarter is
primarily due to a decrease in corporate finance fees attributable to the
Corporation's Capital Markets Group.

Net securities gains in the second quarter of 1998 amounted to $8.0 million
compared with $.3 million in the second quarter of 1997.  Venture capital gains
realized by the Corporation's Capital Markets Group amounted to $6.1 million of
the net gains in the current quarter.

All other income amounted to $17.4 million in the second quarter of 1998
compared to $8.3 million in the second quarter of 1997.  Gains from the sale of
residential mortgage loans, which includes the servicing rights, increased $5.7
million. Gain on fixed asset dispositions increased $1.7 million over 1997
primarily due to the sale of two branch facilities, unrelated to recent mergers.
Revenue from bank-owned life insurance acquired in the Security merger amounted
to $.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998.


OTHER EXPENSE
- -------------
Total other expenses, excluding merger/restructuring expense, in the second
quarter of 1998 amounted to $227.6 million compared with $221.2 million in the
first quarter of 1998 and $188.0 million in the second quarter of 1997.

Expenses of the Corporation's banking business in the second quarter of 1998
include the effects of the Security merger.  The Corporation added approximately
400 full-time equivalent employees as a direct result of the merger.

The Corporation's nonbanking businesses, especially its Data Services segment
("Data Services"), continue to be the primary contributors to operating expense
growth. Data Services expense growth represents over half of the consolidated
operating expense growth and reflects the cost of adding  processing capacity
and other related costs associated with increased revenue growth and maintenance
activities for Year 2000.

<PAGE>
Expense Control is sometimes measured in the financial services industry by the
efficiency ratio statistic.  The efficiency ratio is calculated by taking total
other expense (excluding nonrecurring charges) divided by the sum of total other
income (excluding securities gains or losses) and net interest income on a fully
taxable equivalent basis. The Corporation's efficiency ratios for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 and March 31, 1998 and the year ended December 31,
1997 are:

</TABLE>

Salaries and employee benefits expense amounted to $129.6 million in the second
quarter of 1998 compared to $110.4 million in the second quarter of 1997, an
increase of $19.2 million or 17.3%.  Salaries and employee benefits expense of
Data Services increased $10.9 million or 20.6% in the current quarter compared
to the same period last year.  At June 30, 1998  Data Services had on average
approximately 628 more full time equivalent employees when compared to June 30,
1997 which reflects, in part, additional processing and service centers.  In
addition, expense associated with contract programmers and other temporary help
primarily used in the Year 2000 project increased $1.4 million over the
comparative period.

Data Services expense growth accounted for approximately $2.9 million or 73.4%
of the increase in net occupancy, equipment and software expenses in the second
quarter of 1998 compared to the second quarter of 1997.

The increase in payments to regulatory agencies in the second quarter of 1998
compared to the like period in the prior year reflects the additional deposits
acquired in the Security merger.

The increase in professional services expense in the second quarter of 1998
compared to 1997 of $1.6 million or 38.0% is attributable to fees associated
with job placement, securitizations and other consultants.  Data Services
accounted for approximately $.9 million of the increase in professional services
expense.

Other expense amounted to $39.6 million in the second quarter of 1998, an
increase of $14.7 million or 59.0% compared to the second quarter of 1997. 
Other expenses associated with Data Services accounted for approximately $5.1
million of the increase including the effect of the capitalization of costs, net
of amortization, associated with software development and data processing
conversions.  Amortization expense for goodwill, core deposit premiums and
mortgage servicing rights, primarily attributable to the Security merger,
increased $7.5 million.  Advertising, promotion and development and customer
related expense of the Corporation and its affiliates excluding Data Services
increased $2.5 million.


INCOME TAXES
- ------------
The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 1998 amounted
to $34.5 million or 35.6% of pre-tax income compared to $29.9 million or 33.5%
of pre-tax income for the three months ended June 30, 1997. The change in the
effective tax is primarily due to the increase in nondeductible
merger/restructuring expense and goodwill amortization expense in the current
quarter compared to the prior year quarter.

<PAGE>
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997
- ---------------------------------------
Net income for the first half of 1998 amounted to $137.7 million compared to
$116.7 million in the first half of 1997.  Basic and diluted earnings per share
were $1.27 and $1.19, respectively for the six months ended June 30, 1998
compared to $1.23 and $1.14, respectively for the same period last year.  The
year to date return on average equity was 13.34% in the current period and
17.01% for the six months ended June 30, 1997. 

The Corporation's results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998
also include the impact of the Security and Advantage mergers as previously
discussed.

Operating income for the first half of 1998 was $154.0 million and basic and
diluted earnings per share amounted to $1.43 and $1.34 per share, respectively,
excluding the merger / restructuring charge for the Advantage merger.  The
return on average equity based on operating income was 14.92% for the six months
ended June 30, 1998.

The following table presents a summary of each of the major elements of the
consolidated income statement for the first six months of 1998 and 1997,
excluding the merger / restructuring charges, stated as a percent of average
consolidated assets - converted to a fully taxable equivalent basis (FTE) where

The increase in operating income is largely due to growth in noninterest revenue
of $83.4 million, including $33.5 million in data processing services, $13.8
million in other customer services and $13.5 million in net securities gains. 
The net securities gains were primarily attributable to the Capital Markets
Group.  Net interest income increased $54.7 million.  Growth in other expense,
which is driven primarily by Data Services, was $74.7 million excluding the
merger / restructuring charge.

<PAGE>
CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -----------------
Shareholders' equity was $2.12 billion at June 30, 1998 compared to $2.0 billion
at December 31, 1997 and $1.43 billion at June 30, 1997.

The Company has net unrealized gains on securities available for sale at June
30, 1998 of $43.7 million, a decrease of $8.4 million compared to December 31,
1997.

The decrease in deferred compensation of $1.8 million from $9.3 million at
December 31, 1997 to $7.5 million at June 30, 1998 reflects in part, the
accelerated vesting of the Advantage bank incentive plan ($.4 million) and
termination of Advantage's ESOP ($1.2 million) which were charged to merger/
restructuring as previously discussed.

During the second quarter of 1998,  147,500 shares of common stock were acquired
with an aggregate cost of $7.9 million to provide the initial funding for the
new Directors Deferred Compensation Plan approved at the April 28, 1998 annual
meeting of shareholders.

The Corporation continues to have a strong capital base and its regulatory 
capital ratios are significantly above the minimum requirements as shown in the
following tables.

Year 2000
- ---------
Year 2000 is the term used to describe the fact that many existing computer
programs use only two digits to identify a year in a date field. These programs
were designed and developed without considering the impact of the upcoming
change in the century. If not corrected, many computer applications could fail
or create erroneous results by or at the year 2000. The Year 2000 issue affects
virtually all companies and organizations. 

Data Services began developing its plan to address Year 2000 in 1996. Data
Services employs approximately 150 full-time equivalent employees who are
dedicated to the Year 2000 project and maintains a dedicated code renovation
center and testing facility. Code modifications and testing have been completed
for licensed software and upgrades have been distributed to customers. Service
bureau code modifications were completed in December 1997 with testing and
system verification scheduled to take place throughout 1998. It is estimated
that the net cost to change existing computer programs for both internal and
external software will be approximately $34 million, an increase of $4 million
from the estimate in 1997. During 1997, Data Services incurred approximately $10
million in expense related to this issue compared to $3 million in 1996.  It is
estimated that 1998 net expense will be approximately $15 million.  Year 2000
related net expense for the six months ended June 30, 1998 amounted to
approximately $7.1 million.  The majority of Data Services' contracts do not
provide for additional reimbursement over and above the previously contracted
maintenance amounts.  Future data processing revenue is critically dependent
upon the successful implementation of the necessary changes.

The Corporation and its other affiliates began addressing Year 2000 in 1997. 
The overall process is being coordinated through M&I Support Services which has
a dedicated function addressing the issue that includes providing an overall
plan, communicating and documenting the process and reporting of progress
including periodic reporting to the banking affiliates primary regulator(s). 
In addition, a coordinator has been appointed from each affiliate bank and
division of the Corporation. The inventory of hardware, software, electronic
equipment and building systems has been completed.  The risk assessment phase
of analyzing vendor readiness, compiling critical software lists, and testing
hardware is substantially complete.  The plan for renovation of systems is in
process.  This phase includes developing an action plan for each inventory item,
developing hardware and software upgrades and/or replacement schedules and
implementation.  The remaining phases include testing of implementation,
certification of hardware, software, office machines and building systems and
contingency planning.  The Corporation anticipates the process to be completed
late in 1998 in order to allow for adequate testing and contingency planning.
Replacement equipment and software will be capitalized or expensed in accordance
with the Corporation's normal accounting policies. The effect of writing off the
net book value of equipment or software that is not Year 2000 compliant is not
considered material.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
- -------------------------------------------------------------------

     For a detailed discussion of market risk, see Item 7A.  Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk in the Corporation's Annual Report on
Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 1997.  For additional information on
the Corporation's derivative financial instruments, see Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Position and Results of Operations.

Interest Rate Risk
- ------------------

     The Corporation's consolidated static gap position as of June 30, 1998 has
not materially changed since December 31, 1997.

     Along with the static gap analysis, determining the sensitivity of future
earnings to a hypothetical +/- 100 basis point parallel rate shock is
accomplished through the use of simulation modeling.  The following table
illustrates these amounts as of June 30 and March 31, 1998, and December 31,
1997, which are within the limits established by the Corporation:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
                                             Impact to Pretax Net Income

  in Interest Rates                  June 30, 1998   March 31, 1998  December 31, 1997
- -------------------                  -------------   --------------  -----------------
<S>                                 <C>             <C>             <C>
100 basis point Shock Up                  (7.4%)          (7.2%)             (7.1%)
100 basis point Shock Down                 5.9%            6.0%               6.1%
</TABLE>

     These results are based solely on the repricing characteristics of the
balance sheet, adjusted for expected prepayments, due to immediate and sustained
parallel changes in market rates and do not reflect the earnings sensitivity
that may arise from other factors such as changes in the shape of the yield
curve, the change in spread between key market rates, or accounting recognition
for impairment of certain intangibles.  The above results are also considered
to be conservative estimates due to the fact that no management action to
mitigate potential income variances are included within the simulation process.
This action would include, but would not be limited to, adjustments to the
repricing characteristics of any on or off balance sheet item with regard to
short-term rate projections and current market value assessments.

     Another component of interest rate risk, fair value at risk,  is
determined by the Corporation through the technique of simulating the fair value
of equity in changing rate environments.  This technique involves determining
the present value of all contractual asset and liability cash flows (adjusted
for prepayments) based on a predetermined discount rate.  The net result of all
these balance sheet items determine the fair value of equity.  The fair value
of equity resulting from the current flat rate scenario is compared to the fair
value of equity calculated using discount rates +/- 100 basis points from flat
rates to determine the fair value of equity at risk.  The fair value of equity
at risk is less than 1.0% of the market value of the Corporation as of June 30,
1998.
