     CHICAGO and MEMPHIS, Sept. 8, 1998  First Chicago NBD Corporation, BANC ONE
CORPORATION and Union Planters Corporation announced today that Union Planters
will acquire 51 NBD Bank branches and associated deposits and loans in Indiana.

     The sale was initiated to satisfy anti-trust regulations and includes the
divestiture approved today by the U.S. Department of Justice.  The proposed
merger of BANC ONE and First Chicago NBD, announced April 13, 1998, is pending
regulatory and shareholder approval.

     Union Planters will purchase the assets and liabilities of certain NBD
branches in the following banking markets:

 .  Indianapolis, 27 branches representing $960 million in deposits,
 .  Lafayette, 11 branches representing $435 million in deposits,
 .  Bloomington/Bedford, 4 branches representing $130 million in deposits,
 .  Southeastern Indiana, 4 branches representing $145 million in deposits,
 .  Marion, 3 branches representing $115 million in deposits, and
 .  Kokomo, 2 branches representing $25 million in deposits.
 

     In addition to the $1.8 billion in deposits and 51 branches, the
acquisition will bring Union Planters approximately $200 million in consumer
loans and $625 million in commercial loans along with their associated services.
Union Planters will pay a premium of approximately $294 million for the deposits
and loans, with the exact amount being determined by deposit levels at closing.
 
     The sale is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 1999, subject
to approval by appropriate regulatory authorities and the completion of the
merger of First Chicago NBD and BANC ONE.

     Union Planters has committed to retain all the NBD employees currently
employed at the 51 affected branches.  Founded in 1869, Union Planters is
headquartered in Memphis, Tenn., and is doing business in 12 states with 800
offices and assets of approximately $30 billion.
 
 
     NBD will retain the rest of its current business in these markets,
converting its accounts and facilities to Bank One branches later in 1999. Bank
One will have the largest market share among consumers and businesses in both
Indianapolis and Indiana.

     The new BANK ONE CORPORATION, which will have assets of more than $230
billion, will have the largest market share among consumers in eight states and
among businesses in the Midwest.  The merger is expected to be completed early
in the fourth quarter.
