ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
On November 30, 1999, subject to the terms and conditions of the
Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "JeffBanks Merger
Agreement") dated as of June 28, 1999, among Hudson United Bancorp ("Hudson"),
Hudson United Bank, JeffBanks, Inc. ("JeffBanks"), Jefferson Bank and Jefferson
Bank of New Jersey, JeffBanks was merged with and into Hudson, with Hudson being
the surviving corporation (the "JeffBanks Merger").
Hudson is a New Jersey corporation and bank holding company. Hudson's
principal operating subsidiary is Hudson United Bank. Hudson United Bank is a
full service commercial bank that serves small and mid-sized businesses and
customers through more than 85 branches in northern New Jersey, more than 45
offices in Connecticut, and more than 30 branches in New York.
Prior to the JeffBanks Merger, JeffBanks was a Pennsylvania corporation
and bank holding company with two bank subsidiaries, Jefferson Bank and
Jefferson Bank of New Jersey. Through its bank subsidiaries, JeffBanks provided
a wide range of commercial and retail banking services in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania and its immediately adjacent Pennsylvania and New Jersey suburbs.
In accordance with the JeffBanks Merger Agreement, each share of the
common stock, $1.00 par value per share, of JeffBanks ("JeffBanks Common Stock")
outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger was converted
into the right to receive .9785 shares of the common stock, no par value, of
Hudson ("Hudson Common Stock"). The .9785 exchange ratio represents an
anti-dilution adjustment resulting from Hudson's 3% common stock dividend
declared as of December 1, 1999. The JeffBanks Merger was accounted for as a
"pooling of interests" under generally accepted accounting principles. As a
result of the JeffBanks Merger, approximately 9.4 million shares of Hudson
Common Stock were issued in exchange for JeffBanks Common Stock.
In addition, each outstanding option or warrant to purchase shares of
JeffBanks Common Stock granted under JeffBanks' stock plans was converted into
an option or warrant to purchase Hudson Common Stock, wherein, (i) the right to
purchase shares of JeffBanks Common Stock was converted into the right to
purchase that same number of shares of Hudson Common Stock multiplied by the
.9785 exchange ratio and (ii) the option or warrant exercise price per share of
Hudson Common Stock was the previous option or warrant exercise price per share
of JeffBanks Common Stock divided by the Exchange Ratio. In all other respects,
JeffBanks options and warrants converted into Hudson options or warrants remain
subject to the same terms and conditions as the original grant.
The amount and type of consideration paid involved in the JeffBanks
Merger was a result of negotiations between Hudson and JeffBanks.
Hudson filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on Form S-4 (File No. 333-84829), as amended by Post-Effective
Amendment No. 1 filed on October 5, 1999, to register under the Securities Act
of 1933 the securities issued by Hudson in connection with the JeffBanks Merger.
ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
Southern Merger.
On November 30, 1999, subject to the terms and conditions of the
Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Southern Merger
Agreement") dated as of June 28, 1999, among Hudson, Hudson United Bank,
Southern Jersey Bancorp of Delaware, Inc. ("Southern"), and The Farmers and
Merchants National Bank of Bridgeton, Southern was merged with and into Hudson,
with Hudson being the surviving corporation (the "Southern Merger"). In
accordance with the Southern Merger Agreement, each share of the common stock,
$1.67 par value per share, of Southern ("Southern Common Stock") outstanding
immediately prior to the effective time of the Southern Merger was converted
into the right to receive 1.2978 shares of the Hudson Common Stock. The 1.2978
exchange ratio represents an anti-dilution adjustment resulting from Hudson's 3%
common stock dividend declared as of December 1, 1999. In addition outstanding
options to acquire Southern Common Stock were converted into Hudson Common
Stock. The Southern Merger was accounted for as a "pooling of interests" under
generally accepted accounting principles. As a result of the Southern Merger,
approximately 1.3 million shares of Hudson Common Stock were issued in exchange
for Southern Common Stock and options to acquire Southern Common Stock.

PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Presented on the following page is a pro forma combined condensed
balance sheet of Hudson United and JeffBanks at March 31, 1999, giving effect to
the Hudson United-JeffBanks merger as if it had been consummated at such date.
Also presented are the pro forma combined condensed statements of income for the
three-month period ended March 31, 1999 and for the years ended December 31,
1998, 1997 and 1996. The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on
the historical financial statements of Hudson United and JeffBanks after giving
effect to the merger under the pooling-of-interests method of accounting, based
upon the assumptions and adjustments contained in the accompanying notes to pro
forma combined condensed financial statements and including the 3% stock
dividend declared by Hudson United effective December 1, 1999.
The unaudited pro forma financial information has been prepared by
Hudson United's management based upon the historical financial statements and
related notes thereto of Hudson United and JeffBanks. The unaudited pro forma
financial information should be read in conjunction with those historical
financial statements and notes. The pro forma combined information does not
include the effect of the recently completed merger of Hudson United with
Southern Jersey Bancorp, or the recently completed acquisition of loans and
deposits from Advest Bank or the recently completed acquisition of Little Falls
Bancorp. The historical amounts presented in future financial statements of
Hudson United for periods reported in this joint proxy statement-prospectus will
differ and in certain cases will differ materially as a result of the effects of
accounting for the Hudson United-JeffBanks merger and the recently completed
acquisition of Southern Jersey, as pooling-of-interests.
The pro forma financial data is not necessarily indicative of the
actual financial results that would have occurred had the merger been
consummated as of the beginning of the periods for which the data is presented
and should not be construed as being representative of future periods.

Notes to Pro Forma Financial Information
(1) Pro forma information assumes the merger was consummated as of
March 31, 1999 for the pro forma unaudited combined condensed
balance sheet and as for the beginning of each of the periods
indicated for the pro forma unaudited combined condensed
statements of income. The pro forma information presented is not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations or the
combined financial position that would have resulted had the
merger been consummated at the beginning of the periods
indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of the results of
operations in future periods or the future financial position of
the combined entities.
(2) It is assumed that the merger will be accounted for on a
pooling-of-interests accounting basis, and accordingly, the
related pro forma adjustments herein reflect, where applicable,
an exchange ratio of 0.9785 shares of Hudson United common stock
for each of the 11,101,757 shares of JeffBanks common stock which
were outstanding at November 30, 1999.
(3) Anticipated cost savings net of expected merger-related expense
and restructuring charges are not expected to be material and
therefore the pro form financial information does not give effect
to those items.
(4) In summary, the pro forma financial information was adjusted for
the merger by the (i) addition of 10,285,928 shares of Hudson
United Common Stock with a stated value of $1.778 per share
amounting to $18,288,381 and (ii) elimination of 10,511,935
shares of JeffBanks common stock with a par value of $1.00 per
share amounting to $10,511,935.
(5) Earnings per share data has been computed based on the combined
historical net income applicable to common shareholders of Hudson
United using historical weighted average shares outstanding of
Hudson United common stock for the given period and the common
stock to be issued in connection with the merger.
(6) The pro forma information presented above does not reflect Hudson
United's recently completed acquisitions of Southern Jersey
Bancorp, Little Falls Bancorp and retained assets and liabilities
of Advest Bank.

HUDSON UNITED BANCORP
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE A -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying financial statements of Hudson United Bancorp and Subsidiaries
("the Company") include the accounts of the parent company, Hudson United
Bancorp, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Hudson United Bank ("Hudson
United"), HUBCO Capital Trust I, HUBCO Capital Trust II, and JBI Capital Trust
I. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. In March 1999, the former Lafayette American Bank and Bank of the
Hudson were merged into Hudson United. In addition, the shareholders of the
Company on April 21, 1999 approved an amendment to the certificate of
incorporation to change the name of the company from HUBCO, Inc. to Hudson
United Bancorp. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, the information presented
includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered
necessary for a fair presentation, in all material respects, of the interim
period results. The results of operations for periods of less than one year are
not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K-A filed with the Commission on October 12, 1999, for the
year ended December 31, 1998.
<PAGE>
NOTE B -- EARNINGS PER SHARE
In the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company adopted SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share." This statement establishes standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share and requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings
per share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income, less
dividends on the convertible preferred stock, by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares
plus the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the preferred stock (when
outstanding) and the incremental number of shares issuable from the exercise of
stock options, and stock warrants, calculated using the treasury stock method.
All per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect all stock
splits and stock dividends.
A reconciliation of net income to net income available to common stockholders
and of weighted average common shares outstanding to weighted average shares
outstanding assuming dilution follows (in thousands, except per share data):

SUPPLEMENTAL MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Acquisition Summary
Hudson United Bancorp ("the Company") began its acquisition program in the fall
of 1990. Since that time, the company has completed 27 acquisitions, including
10 which were completed in 1998. Through these acquisitions, the company has
grown from a $550 million asset banking company to a community banking franchise
which has assets of approximately $8.9 billion at December 31, 1998. The
acquisition program has been utilized to achieve efficiencies and to distribute
the cost of new products and technologies over a larger asset base. It is the
Company's philosophy that acquisitions become accretive to earnings within a
short time frame, generally within one year. The financial results of these
acquisitions are difficult to measure other than on an as-reported basis each
quarter because pooling of interest transactions change historical results from
those actually reported by the Company.
On January 12, 1996, the Company acquired Growth Financial Corp. (Growth) and
merged its subsidiary bank, Growth Bank, into Hudson United Bank (Hudson).
Growth was a $128 million asset bank with 3 branch locations, headquartered in
Basking Ridge, New Jersey.
On July 1, 1996, the Company acquired Lafayette American Bank and Trust Company
(Lafayette) and continued to operate it as an independent commercial bank
headquartered in Connecticut. Lafayette was a $700 million asset bank which
operated 19 branches, primarily in Fairfield County, Connecticut.
On December 13, 1996, the Company acquired Westport Bancorp, Inc. (Westport) and
merged its subsidiary bank, Westport Bank & Trust Company into Lafayette.
Westport Bank & Trust Company was a $317 million asset bank based in Westport,
Connecticut and operated 7 branch locations.
All three of these acquisitions were accounted for under the
pooling-of-interests accounting method, and, accordingly, the consolidated
financial statements prior to the mergers have been restated to include these
institutions and their results of operations.
On August 30, 1996, the Company acquired Hometown Bancorporation (Hometown), a
$194 million asset bank holding company headquartered in Darien, Connecticut.
Hometown's 2 branch banking subsidiary, The Bank of Darien, was merged into
Lafayette.
On November 29, 1996, Lafayette acquired UST Bank/Connecticut and merged it into
the Connecticut franchise. UST Bank was a $111 million asset commercial bank
with 4 branch locations. Both of these acquisitions were accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting.
In addition, during 1996 the Company purchased 4 New Jersey branches with total
deposits of $70.3 million and merged them into Hudson. The Company also sold 1
branch during the year with deposits of $9.7 million.
The Company consummated eight acquisitions in 1998. On January 8, 1998, the
Company acquired the Bank of Southington (BOS) and merged it into Lafayette. BOS
was a $135 million asset bank with 2 branch locations, headquartered in
Southington, Connecticut.
On April 24, 1998, the Company acquired Poughkeepsie Financial Corp. (PFC) and
merged PFC into HUBCO. PFC's subsidiary bank, Bank of the Hudson, an $880
million asset institution headquartered in Poughkeepsie, New York has been
maintained as a separate New York banking subsidiary of HUBCO. Bank of the
Hudson had 16 branches in Rockland, Orange and Dutchess counties in New York.
On May 29, 1998, the Company acquired MSB Bancorp, Inc. (MSB) and merged MSB
into HUBCO and MSB's subsidiary bank into Bank of the Hudson. MSB was a $774
million asset institution headquartered in Goshen, New York and operated 16
branches in Orange, Putnam and Sullivan counties in New York.
On August 14, 1998, the Company acquired IBS Financial Corporation (IBS) and
merged IBS into HUBCO and IBS's subsidiary bank into Hudson. IBS was a $734
million asset institution headquartered in Cherry Hill, New Jersey and operated
10 offices in New Jersey's suburban Philadelphia communities.
On August 14, 1998, the Company acquired Community Financial Holding Corporation
(CFHC) and merged CFHC into HUBCO and CFHC's subsidiary bank into Hudson. CFHC
was a $150 million asset institution headquartered in Westmont, New Jersey and
operated 8 offices in Camden, Burlington and Gloucester counties in New Jersey.
On August 21, 1998, the Company acquired Dime Financial Corporation (DFC) and
merged DFC into HUBCO and DFC's subsidiary bank into Lafayette. DFC was a $961
million asset institution headquartered in Wallingford, Connecticut and operated
11 offices in New Haven county.
The above 1998 acquisitions were all accounted for using the pooling of interest
accounting method and, accordingly, the statements for periods prior to the
mergers have been restated to include these institutions and their results of
operations.
On February 5, 1998, the Company acquired Security National Bank & Trust Company
of New Jersey (SNB) and merged SNB into Hudson. SNB was an $86 million asset
bank and trust company headquartered in Newark, New Jersey with 4 branches.
On June 26, 1998, the Company acquired 21 branches of First Union National Bank
located in New Jersey and Connecticut. The 8 Connecticut branches representing
$99.6 million in deposits were merged into Lafayette. The 13 New Jersey branches
representing $143.3 million in deposits were merged into Hudson.
On July 24, 1998, the Company acquired two additional branches of First Union
National Bank located in Hyde Park and Woodstock, New York. The branches,
representing $25.2 million in deposits, were merged into Bank of the Hudson.
The Security National Bank & Trust Company of New Jersey and First Union
National Bank branch acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method
of accounting and as such their assets and earnings are included in the
Company's consolidated results only from the date of acquisition and thereafter.
On November 30, 1999, the Company completed its acquisition of JeffBanks, Inc.
("Jeff"), a $1.8 billion bank holding company with 32 branches located
throughout the greater Philadelphia area of Pennsylvania and South Jersey.
On December 1, 1999, the Company completed its acquisition of Southern Jersey
Bancorp ("SJB"), a $425 million asset institution with 17 branches in South
Jersey.
The above 1999 acquisitions were accounted for using the pooling-of-interests
accounting method and, accordingly, the statements for periods prior to the
mergers have been restated to include these institutions and their results of
operations.

</TABLE>
<PAGE>
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the difference between the interest earned on earning
assets and the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. The principal earning
assets are the loan portfolio, comprised of commercial loans for businesses,
mortgage loans for businesses and individuals, consumer loans (such as car
loans, home equity loans, etc.) and credit card loans, along with the investment
portfolio. The portfolio is invested primarily in U.S. Treasury or U.S.
Government Agency securities. Given the current rate environment, the weighted
average life of the portfolio is approximately 2.5 years. Deposits and
borrowings not required to fund loans and other assets are invested primarily in
government and government agency securities.
Net interest income is affected by a number of factors including the level,
pricing, and maturity of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities,
interest rate fluctuations, asset quality and the amount of noninterest-bearing
deposits and capital. In the following discussion, interest income is presented
on a fully taxable-equivalent basis ("FTE"). Fully taxable-equivalent interest
income restates reported interest income on tax-exempt loans and securities as
if such interest were taxed at the statutory Federal income tax rate of 35%.
Net interest income on an FTE basis in 1998 was $333.6 million compared to
$329.5 million in 1997 and $314.5 million in 1996. The increase in net interest
income in 1998 compared to 1997 was due to a $391 million increase in
interest-earning assets, partially offset by a decline in the net interest
margin of 15 basis points. The increase in interest-earning assets was mainly
due to a higher average volume of investment securities. The decline in net
interest margin reflected the lower U.S. interest rate environment and a
flattening of the yield curve. The improvement in net interest income in 1997
compared to 1996 was due to a $371 million increase in interest-earning assets,
partially offset by a 1 basis point decline in the net interest margin. Higher
average loan volume was the primary factor underlying the increase in
interest-earning assets for the 1997 period compared to 1996.
Net Interest Margin
Net interest margin is computed by dividing net interest income on a FTE basis
by average interest-earning assets. The Company's net interest margin was 4.10%,
4.25%, and 4.26% for 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The decline in net
interest margin from 1997 to 1998 was due to lower rates earned on loans and
investment securities which more than offset lower rates paid on deposits. The
loan yield dropped 10 basis points and the investment security yield declined 35
basis points. The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was 14 basis
points lower in 1998 compared to 1997. The slight decline in net interest margin
in 1997 compared to 1996 was due to higher rates paid on borrowings and long
term debt. This was partially offset by higher yields on investment securities.
The Company's average cost of all deposits for 1998 was 3.43% compared to 3.50%
for 1997 and 3.54% for 1996.
Approximately 37% of the Company's deposits are in transaction accounts, 20% in
savings accounts, and 43% in time deposits as of December 31, 1998.
Provision and Allowance for Possible Loan Losses
Management determines the provision and adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses based on a number of factors including an in-house loan review program
conducted throughout the year. The loan portfolio is evaluated to identify
potential problem loans, credit concentrations, and other risk factors such as
current and projected economic conditions locally and nationally. General
economic trends can greatly affect loan losses and there are no assurances that
future changes to the loan loss allowance may not be significant in relation to
the amount provided during a particular period. Management does, however,
consider the allowance for loan losses to be adequate for the reporting periods
based on evaluation and analysis of the loan portfolio at that time.
Accompanying tables reflect the three-year history of charge-offs and the
allocation of the allowance by loan category.
The provision for loan losses was $35.6 million for 1998 compared with $24.4
million and $29.1 million in 1997 and 1996, respectively. The decline in 1997
from 1996 was due to the $4 million special provision which was taken in 1996.
The 1996 special charge, reflecting the application of the Company's reserve
methodology to the new Connecticut bank subsidiary and to address this
subsidiary's problem loans, brought the allowance for possible loan losses to a
level considered by management to be adequate. The allowance for possible loan
losses as a percentage of loans outstanding at year-end for the last three years
was 1.56%, 1.74%, and 1.70%. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of
nonperforming loans for the last three-years was 147%, 102% and 95%.

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income, excluding securities gains and loss on assets held for sale,
increased 16% to $70.9 million for 1998 from $61.0 million in 1997. The amount
in 1997 was an increase of 15% over the $52.9 million reported in 1996. The
increase for 1998 compared to 1997 was due to growth in Shoppers Charge fees
(the Company's private label credit card division) and other non-deposit related
fee income. The improvement in 1997 from 1996 was mainly the result of growth in
Shoppers Charge fees and service charges on deposits. Shoppers Charge fee income
increased to $11.6 million in 1998, or 27%, over 1997 which had been an increase
of 119% over 1996. Noninterest income, excluding security gains and loss on
assets held for sale, as a percentage of total net revenue was 18%, 16%, and 14%
in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The company realized $4.5 million in
securities gains in 1998, $9.4 million in 1997, and $2.0 million in 1996.
Included in noninterest income for 1998 is a $23.3 million pre-tax, $14.9
million after-tax charge, related to the disposal of $64 million of
non-performing loans and OREO. At year-end 1998, the total of assets held for
sale related to this charge was $14.1 million. The Company is actively pursuing
the disposal of the remainder of these assets.
Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest expense, excluding merger related and restructuring costs, decreased
to $232.3 million in 1998 from $239.2 million in 1997. The primary reason for
the decline in expenses from 1997 to 1998 was a 7%, or $8.0 million, reduction
in salaries and benefits expense that resulted mainly from the consolidation and
realization of efficiencies in acquired institutions. This was partially offset
by higher expenses, including $1.8 million in intangible amortization, that
resulted from the acquisition of the 23 First Union branches and Security
National Bank. The $239.2 million in non-interest expenses in 1997 was an
increase from $229.1 million in 1996, excluding merger-related restructuring
costs and the Special SAIF assessment. The increase in 1997 compared to 1996 was
largely due to higher expenses related to acquired institutions. The full
annualized effect of the anticipated cost savings from the centralization of
support functions related to the acquisitions closed in the later part of 1996
were fully realized in 1997 as the computer conversions for Lafayette, Hometown
and Westport occurred near year-end 1996 and the UST conversion occurred in the
first quarter of 1997.
Salary and benefit expense was $107.2 million in 1998, $115.2 million and $110.8
million in 1997 and 1996, respectively. The decline from 1997 to 1998 resulted
mainly from the aforementioned cost savings related to acquired institutions.
The $4.4 million increase in 1997 compared with 1996 is primarily attributable
to the aforementioned purchase acquisitions. Employee benefits as a percentage
of salaries were 28% in 1998, 32% in 1997, and 30% in 1996.
Occupancy expense was $24.8 million in 1998, $23.3 million in 1997, and $23.6
million in 1996. The increase in 1998 resulted largely from the acquisition of
the First Union branches. Equipment expense declined to $11.3 million in 1998
compared to $11.6 million in 1997 and amounted to $10.7 million in 1996.
Deposit and other insurance expense has declined over the last three years from
$6.4 million in 1996 to $3.5 million in 1997 and $3.1 million in 1998. The
reductions are primarily attributable to the decrease in the deposit insurance
assessment rate for the Company's banking subsidiaries. The Company has also
benefited from savings realized through negotiations on its other insurance
coverages. The 1996 amount excludes the aforementioned $10.1 million Special
SAIF assessment.
Outside services expense has increased to $34.8 million in 1998 from $33.4
million in 1997 and $28.4 million in 1996. The increases are primarily
attributable to payments for data processing services to the Company's jointly
owned service provider and reflect increased transaction volume resulting from
acquisitions.
Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) expense declined to $3.3 million in 1998 compared
to $5.6 million in 1997 and $5.7 million in 1996. A lower OREO provision and a
decline in properties managed were responsible for the reduction in expense.
Amortization of intangibles expense increased to $12.0 million in 1998 from
$10.4 million in 1997 and $8.6 million in 1996. The increases are attributable
to the additional goodwill established for the acquisitions and branch purchases
described previously.
Merger related and restructuring costs were $69.2 million in 1998, $0.3 million
in 1997 and $22.1 million in 1996. The 1998 costs include payout and accruals
for employment contracts, severance and other employee related costs ($29.5
million), branch closing, fixed asset disposition and other occupancy related
costs ($13.2 million), professional services ($13.6 million) and other merger
related expenses ($12.9 million).
Federal Income Taxes
The income tax provision for Federal and state taxes approximates 38.8% for
1998, 36.9% for 1997 and 38.0% for 1996. The increase in the effective tax rate
from 1997 to 1998 was due primarily to the impact of non-deductible merger
related expenses. The decrease in the tax rate in 1997 as compared to 1996
reflected the impact of a significant loss for Regent (acquired by Jeff) where
the related tax benefits were not recognized until 1997.
Financial Condition
Total assets at December 31, 1998 were $8.9 billion, an increase from assets of
$8.7 billion at December 31, 1997. This increase in assets resulted primarily
from a $575 million increase in investment securities which amounted to $3.3
billion at December 31, 1998. Partially offsetting this increase was a $329
million reduction in fed funds sold. Total loans and total deposits amounted to
$4.9 billion and $6.8 billion, respectively, at both year-end 1998 and 1997.
Borrowings amounted to $970 and $901 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997.
The Company considers its liquidity and capital to be adequate. At the end of
1998, the Company had $3.3 billion in investment securities, $2.7 billion in its
available for sale portfolio and $636 million in its held to maturity portfolio.
Total Stockholders' Equity was $619.9 million at December 31, 1998 and $667.8
million at December 31, 1997. The net decline of $47.9 million resulted from the
Company's purchase of $70.1 million in treasury shares ($2.1 million shares)
along with dividends paid of $39.7 million, which was partially offset by the
$26.8 million of net income and $28.2 million resulting from the effect of stock
option, warrant, and other compensation plans. Of the purchased treasury shares,
$60.2 million was reissued in connection with the 3% stock dividend paid in
September 1998 and for the exercise of stock options and warrants. Despite the
decline in total capital, the Company's Tier I Leverage ratio was 7.4%
at December 31, 1998. The Company issued $50.0 million in capital securities
through HUBCO Capital Trust II on June 19,
<PAGE>
1998. The $50.0 million is included in Tier I Capital for regulatory purposes,
subject to certain limitations.
Securities Held to Maturity and Securities Available for Sale
The securities portfolios serve as a source of liquidity, earnings, and a means
of managing interest rate risk. Consequently, the portfolios are managed over
time in response to changes in market conditions and as loan demand changes. At
December 31, 1998 and 1997, the portfolios comprised 37% and 31%, respectively,
of the total assets of the Company.
The Company's philosophy (strategy) with respect to managing the portfolio is to
purchase U.S. government and agency securities as well as U.S. government agency
mortgage-backed and mortgage-related securities.

Total Loan Portfolio $4,885,643 $4,911,761 $4,817,211
==========================================
Total loans decreased by $26.1 million from $4.91 billion at December 31, 1997,
to $4.89 billion at December 31, 1998. Contributing to the decline was the
writedown and transfer to assets held for sale of $54 million of nonaccrual
loans. The residential mortgage loan portfolio declined $138.8 million to $1.74
billion at December 31, 1998. The decline was the result of run-off in the
existing portfolio as a significant portion of new originations were sold.
Commercial mortgage loans decreased by $127.4 million to $978.0 million at
December 31, 1998. The reduction resulted primarily from the runoff or sale of
non-owner occupied loans which were originated at acquired institutions and did
not fit the Company's credit criteria. Commercial loans increased by $134.1
million to $1.24 billion at December 31, 1998 with the overall mix shifting away
from loans secured by real estate as the Company built its traditional portfolio
of commercial and industrial loans. Non real estate secured commercial loans
grew by $185.7 million to $1.0 billion at December 31, 1998. Credit card loans
declined by $7.2 million to $107.3 million at December 31, 1998 primarily due to
the loss of one retailer who went out of business. This decline was partially
offset by continued growth in the overall business.
Asset Quality
The Company's principal earning assets are its loans, which are primarily to
businesses and individuals located in New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and
Pennsylvania with the exception of the credit card loans which are originated in
44 states. Inherent in the lending business is the risk of deterioration in a
borrower's ability to repay loans under existing loan agreements. Other risk
elements include the amount of nonaccrual and past-due loans, the amount of
potential problem loans, industry or geographic loan concentrations, and the
level of other real estate owned (OREO) that must be managed and disposed of.
The following table shows the loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing
and applicable asset quality ratios:

Nonaccruing loans include commercial loans and commercial mortgage loans
past-due 90-days or more or deemed uncollectable. Residential real estate loans
are generally placed on nonaccrual status after 180 days of delinquency.
Consumer loans are charged off after 120 days and credit card loans are charged
off after 180 days. Any loan may be put on nonaccrual status earlier if the
Company has concern about the future collectability of the loan or its ability
to return to current status.
Nonaccrual real estate loans are principally loans in the foreclosure process
secured by real estate, including single family residential, multi-family, and
commercial properties.
Nonaccruing consumer loans are loans to individuals. Excluding the credit card
receivables, these loans are principally secured by automobiles or real estate.
Renegotiated loans are loans which were renegotiated as to the term or rate or
both to assist the borrower after the borrower has suffered adverse effects in
financial condition. Terms are designed to fit the ability of the borrower to
repay and the Company's objective of obtaining repayment. The Company has $5.6
million of loans which are considered renegotiated.
OREO consists of properties on which the Bank has foreclosed or has taken a deed
in lieu of the loan obligation. OREO properties are carried at the lower of cost
or fair value at all times, net of estimated costs to sell. The cost to maintain
the properties during ownership, and any further declines in fair value are
charged to current earnings. The Company has been successful in disposing of
OREO properties, including those acquired in acquisitions. At December 31, 1998,
1997, and 1996, OREO amounted to $8.2 million, $15.6 million, and $25.2 million.
The decline from 1997 to 1998 was mainly due to the writedown and transfer of
OREO properties to assets held for sale.
At December 31, 1998, nonperforming assets decreased by $39.4 million to $60.0
million from $99.4 million in 1997. The decline was largely due to the $23.3
million pre-tax charge and the $10.3 million writedown against the Allowance for
Possible Loan Losses and OREO reserve related to the planned disposal of
non-performing loans and OREO.
The amount of interest income on nonperforming loans which would have been
recorded had these loans continued to perform under their original terms
amounted to $8.0 million, $6.3 million, and $6.8 million for the years 1998,
1997, and 1996, respectively. The amount of interest income recorded on such
loans for each of the
<PAGE>
years was $0.7 million, $1.5 million, and $2.0 million, respectively. The
Company has no outstanding commitments to advance additional funds to borrowers
whose loans are in a nonperforming status.
Measures to control and reduce the level of nonperforming loans are continuing.
Efforts are made to identify slow paying loans and collection procedures are
instituted. After identification, steps are taken to understand the problems of
the borrower and to work with the borrower toward resolving the problem, if
practicable. Continuing collection efforts are a priority for the Banks.
The allowance for possible loan losses at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996 as a
percentage of total loans was 1.56%, 1.74%, and 1.70%, respectively. Management
formally reviews the loan portfolio and evaluates credit risk on at least a
quarterly basis throughout the year. Such review takes into consideration the
financial condition of the borrowers, fair market value of collateral, level of
delinquencies, historical loss experience by loan category, industry trends, and
the impact of local and national economic conditions.

Total Deposits $ 6,773,236 $ 6,777,047 $ 6,692,322
=====================================
Total deposits were basically unchanged at year-end 1998 compared to year-end
1997. However, there was a favorable change in the mix, as non-interest bearing
deposits increased and higher rate time deposits declined. As noted earlier, 36%
of the deposit base is in low or noninterest bearing core deposits and another
20% is in low cost savings deposits. This funding base provides a very low cost
funding source for the Company.
Liquidity
Liquidity is a measure of the Company's ability to meet the needs of depositors,
borrowers, and creditors at a reasonable cost and without adverse financial
consequences. The Company has several liquidity measurements that are evaluated
on a frequent basis. The Company has adequate sources of liquidity including
Securities Available for Sale, Federal funds lines, and the ability to borrow
funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve discount window. The
management of balance sheet volumes, mixes, and maturities enables the Company
to maintain adequate levels of liquidity.
The liquidity requirements of the Company, for dividends to shareholders, debt
service, and other corporate purposes, are met through cash and short-term money
market investments and regular periodic dividends from the subsidiary banks. The
Company also has the ability, when and if necessary, to access the capital
markets. Management considers the liquidity of the Company and the subsidiary
banks to be adequate to meet current and anticipated funding requirements.
Capital
Capital adequacy is a measure of the amount of capital needed to support asset
growth, absorb unanticipated losses, and provide safety for depositors. The
regulators establish minimum capital ratio guidelines for the banking industry.
The capital ratios impact the performance of the Company in that these ratios
are used with other criteria to determine the FDIC deposit insurance premium
rate a bank must pay.
<PAGE>
The following table sets forth the regulatory minimum capital ratio guidelines
and the current capital ratios of the Company.

At December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, the Company exceeded all regulatory
capital guidelines including those for a well capitalized institution.
On November 15, 1996, the Company paid a 3% stock dividend and increased its
regular quarterly cash dividend from $0.16 to $0.18 per common share. On
December 1, 1997, the Company paid a 3% stock dividend and increased its regular
quarterly cash dividend from $0.18 to $0.19 per common share. On September 3,
1998, the Company paid a 3% stock dividend and increased its regular quarterly
cash dividend to $0.25 per common share. On December 1, 1999, the Company paid a
3% stock dividend and maintained its regular quarterly cash dividend at $0.25
per common share. The dividend payout ratio, based on cash dividends per share
and diluted earnings per share, was 173.5% for 1998 compared to 48.0% for 1997
and 74.7% in 1996. The higher ratios in 1998 and 1996 were due to lower net
income resulting from the special charges in those years. Excluding special
charges, the payout ratio would have been 51.8% in 1998 and 49.6% in 1996.
In September 1996, the Company issued $75.0 million of subordinated debt in a
private placement which was subsequently registered with the SEC. The
subordinated debentures bear interest at 8.20% per annum payable semi-annually
and mature in 2006. In January 1994, the Company issued $25.0 million aggregate
principal amount of subordinated debentures which mature in 2004 and bear
interest at 7.75% per annum payable semi-annually. In March 1996, the Company
issued $23.0 million aggregate principal amount of subordinated debentures which
mature in 2006 and bear interest at 8.75% per annum payable semi-annually. These
notes are redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any
time after April 1, 2001, at their stated principal amount plus accrued
interest, if any. In February 1993, the Company issued $9.0 million aggregate
principal amount of subordinated debentures which mature in 2003 and bear
interest at 9.5% per annum payable semi-annually. These notes are redeemable at
the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time after February 15,
2000, at their stated principal amount plus accrued interest, if any. Proceeds
of the above issuances were used for general corporate purposes including
providing Tier I capital to the subsidiary banks. The debt has been structured
to comply with the Federal Reserve Bank rules regarding debt qualifying as Tier
2 capital at the Company.
In January 1997, the Company placed $50.0 million in aggregate liquidation
amount of 8.98% Capital Securities due February 2027, using HUBCO Capital Trust
I, a statutory business trust formed under the laws of the State of Delaware.
The sole asset of the trust, which is the obligor on the Series B Capital
Securities, is $51.5 million principal amount of 8.98% Junior Subordinated
Debentures due 2027 of the Company. In June 1998, the Company placed $50.0
million in aggregate liquidation amount of 7.65% Capital Securities due June
2028, using HUBCO Capital Trust II, a statutory business trust formed under the
laws of the State of Delaware. The sole assets of the trust, which is the
obligor on the Series B Capital Securities, is $51.5 million principal amount of
7.65% Junior Subordinated Debentures due 2028 of the Company. In February 1997,
the Company placed $25.0 million in aggregate liquidation amount of 9.25%
Capital Securities due March 2027, using JBI Capital Trust I, a statutory
business trust formed under the laws of the State of Delaware. The sole asset of
the trust, which is the obligor on the Series B Capital Securities, is $25.3
million principal amount of 8.98% Junior Subordinated Debentures due 2027 of the
Company. The 8.98% Trust preferred securities are callable by the Company on or
after March 31, 2002, or earlier in the event the deduction of related interest
for federal income taxes is prohibited, treatment as Tier I capital is no longer
permitted or certain other contingencies arise. The three issues of capital
securities have preference over the common securities under certain
circumstances with respect to cash distributions and amounts payable on
liquidation and are guaranteed by the Company. The net proceeds of the offerings
are being used for general corporate purposes and to increase capital levels of
the Company and its subsidiaries. The securities qualify as Tier I capital under
the capital guidelines of the Federal Reserve.
At the end of the reporting period, there were no known uncertainties that will
have or that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the Company's
liquidity or capital resources.
Liquidity and interest rate sensitivity management
The primary objectives of asset/liability management are to provide for the
safety of depositor and investor funds, assure adequate liquidity, maintain an
appropriate balance between interest sensitive earning assets and
interest-sensitive liabilities and enhance earnings. Liquidity management is a
planning process that ensures that the Company has ample funds to satisfy
operational needs, projected deposit outflows, repayment of borrowing and loan
obligations and the projected credit needs of its customer base. Interest rate
sensitivity management ensures that the Company maintains acceptable levels of
net interest income exposure throughout a range of interest rate environments.
The Company seeks to maintain its interest rate risk within a range that it
believes is both manageable and prudent, given its capital and income generating
capacity.
Liquidity risk is the risk to earnings or capital that would arise from a bank's
inability to meet its obligations when they come due, without incurring
unacceptable losses. The Company uses several measurements in monitoring its
liquidity position. In addition, the Company has a number of borrowing
facilities with banks, primary broker dealers, the Federal Home Loan Bank and
Federal Reserve that are or can be used as sources of liquidity without having
to sell assets to raise cash. At December 31, 1998, the Company's liquidity
ratios
<PAGE>
exceed all minimum standards set forth by internal policies.
The Company has an asset/liability management committee which manages the risks
associated with the volatility of interest rates and the resulting impact on net
interest income, net income and capital. The management of interest rate risk at
the Company is performed by: (i) analyzing the maturity and repricing
relationships between interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities
at specific points in time (`GAP') and (ii) "income simulation analysis" which
analyzes the effects of interest rate changes on net interest income, net income
and capital over specific periods of time and captures the dynamic impact of
interest rate changes on the Company's mix of assets and liabilities.
The table on the following page presents the GAP position of the Company at
December 31, 1998. In preparing this table, management has anticipated
prepayments for mortgage-backed securities and mortgage loans according to
standard industry prepayment assumptions in effect at year-end. Money market
deposits and interest bearing demand accounts have been included in the due
within 90 days category. Assets with daily floating rates are included in the
due within 90 days category. Assets and liabilities are included in the table
based on their maturities, expected cash repayments or period of first
repricing, subject to the foregoing assumptions.
In analyzing its GAP position, although all time periods are considered, the
Company emphasizes the next twelve month period. An institution is considered to
be liability sensitive, or having a negative GAP, when the amount of
interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within a given time period
exceeds the amount of its interest-earning assets also repricing within that
time period. Conversely, an institution is considered to be asset sensitive, or
having a positive GAP, when the amount of its interest-bearing liabilities
maturing or repricing is less than the amount of its interest-earning assets
also maturing or repricing during the same period. Theoretically, in a falling
interest rate environment, a negative GAP should result in an increase in net
interest income, and in a rising interest rate environment this negative GAP
should adversely affect net interest income. The converse would be true for a
positive GAP.
However, shortcomings are inherent in a simplified GAP analysis that may result
in changes in interest rates affecting net interest income more or less than the
GAP analysis would indicate. For example, although certain assets and
liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react
in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Furthermore, repricing
characteristics of certain assets and liabilities may vary substantially within
a given time period. In the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and
early withdrawal levels could also deviate significantly from those assumed in
calculating GAP. Also, GAP does not permit analysis of how changes in the mix of
various assets and liabilities and growth rate assumptions impact net interest
income.
The following table shows the gap position of the Company at December 31,
1998 (in thousands):

</TABLE>
Due in part to the shortcomings of GAP analysis, the Asset/Liability Committee
of Hudson United Bancorp believes that financial simulation modeling more
accurately estimates the effects and exposure to changes in interest rates. Net
interest income simulation considers the relative sensitivities of the balance
sheet including the effects of interest rate caps on adjustable rate mortgages
and the relatively stable aspects of core deposits. As such, net interest income
simulation is designed to address the likely probability of interest
<PAGE>
rate changes and behavioral response of the balance sheet to those changes.
Market Value of Portfolio Equity represents the fair values of the net present
value of assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet items.
Financial modeling is performed under several scenarios including a regulatory
rate shock scenario which measures changes in net interest income over the next
twelve months and market value of portfolio equity given instantaneous and
sustained changes in interest rates.
The following table depicts the Company's sensitivity to interest rate changes
and the effects on market value of portfolio equity as of December 31, 1998
under several scenarios including the regulatory rate shock scenario.

Recent Accounting Standards
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," establishing standards for
the accounting and reporting of derivatives. The statement is effective for
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999; earlier application is permitted.
The Company has elected not to adopt this statement prior to its effective date.
The Company does not expect that adoption of the statement will have a material
effect on its financial position or results of operations
Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information
This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can
be identified by the use of words such as "believes", "expects" and similar
words or variations. Such statements are not historical facts and involve
certain risk and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from the
results discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause
a difference include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates,
economic conditions, deposit and loan growth, loan loss provisions, customer
retention, failure to realize expected cost savings or revenue enhancements from
acquisitions, or failure of the Company's year 2000 compliance program to
effectively address year 2000 computer problems. The Company assumes no
obligation for updating any such forward-looking statements at any time.
Year 2000 Compliance
Hudson United Bancorp has been planning since 1996 to prepare its computer
systems and applications to meet the challenge of the new millennium. The
Company, in conjunction with its data processing subsidiary, has established a
"Year 2000 Team" which is responsible for ensuring implementation of the
required changes and that business disruption is minimal. This process involves
analyzing and replacing existing computer hardware and software as needed.
Hudson United Bancorp is currently communicating with customers and external
providers to determine their status regarding Year 2000 issues. Additionally,
the Company is assessing how problems with third party computer systems may
impact its business operations. To date, the Company has not identified any
material third party problems, but will continue to assess the situation through
1999.
The modification and review of computer and non-information technology systems
was completed by December 31, 1998. This will allow for testing and making
adjustments, as necessary, to fine tune our systems and deal with any customer
or third party developments during 1999.
The estimated total cost to become Year 2000 compliant is $7 million. Through
December 31, 1998, the Company has incurred approximately $5.7 million of the
above costs. The Company anticipates most of the remaining costs will be
incurred by mid-year 1999.
A failure by the Company or by third parties on whom the Company relies for
support to correct Year
<PAGE>
2000 issues may cause disruption in the Company's business operations that could
result in reduced revenue, increased operating costs and other adverse effects.
Additionally, to the extent borrowers' financial positions are weakened as a
result of Year 2000 issues, credit quality could be impacted. It is not possible
to forecast with a reasonable degree of certainty all the negative impacts that
may result from a failure of the Company or third parties to become fully Year
2000 compliant or whether such effect could have a material impact on the
Company. The Company has developed contingency plans to mitigate the disruption
to business operations that may occur if Year 2000 compliance is not fully
achieved by all parties.

NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1998 (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Hudson United Bancorp (the Company) provides a full range of banking services to
individual and corporate customers through its three banking subsidiaries,
Hudson United Bank (Hudson), Lafayette American Bank (Lafayette) and Bank of the
Hudson (BOTH), with branch locations in New Jersey, Connecticut, New York and
Pennsylvania. The Company is subject to the regulations of certain Federal and
State banking agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those agencies.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hudson United
Bancorp and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. The financial
statements of institutions acquired which have been accounted for by the pooling
of interests method are included herein for all periods presented.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, and disclosure of contingent liabilities, as of the date of the
financial statements and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results
could differ significantly from those estimates.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in
consolidation.
SECURITIES
The Company classifies its securities as held to maturity, available for sale
and held for trading purposes. Securities for which the Company has the ability
and intent to hold until maturity are classified as held to maturity. These
securities are carried at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and
accretion of discounts on a straight-line basis which is not materially
different from the interest method. Management reviews its intent to hold
securities to maturity as a result of changes in circumstances, including major
business combinations. Sales or transfers of held to maturity securities may be
necessary to maintain the Company's existing interest rate risk position or
credit risk policy.
Securities which are held for indefinite periods of time which management
intends to use as part of its asset/liability management strategy, or that may
be sold in response to changes in interest rates, changes in prepayment risk,
increases in capital requirements or other similar factors, are classified as
available for sale and are carried at fair value. Differences between available
for sale securities' amortized cost and fair value are charged/credited directly
to stockholders' equity, net of income taxes. The cost of securities sold is
determined on a specific identification basis. The Company had no securities
held for trading purposes at December 31, 1998 and 1997.
Security purchases and sales are recorded on the trade date.
MORTGAGE LOANS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
Mortgages held for sale are recorded at cost, which approximates market. These
mortgages are typically sold within three months of origination without
recourse. Assets held for sale are carried at lower of cost or market.
LOANS
Loans are recorded at their principal amounts outstanding. Interest income on
loans not made on a discounted basis is credited to income based on principal
amounts outstanding at applicable interest rates. Interest income on consumer
credit loans is recorded primarily using the simple interest method.
Recognition of interest on the accrual method is discontinued when, based on
contractual delinquency, timely payment is not expected. A nonaccrual loan is
not returned to an accrual status until interest is received on a current basis
and other factors indicate that collection of principal and interest is no
longer doubtful.
The net amount of all loan origination fees, direct loan origination costs and
loan commitment fees are deferred and recognized over the estimated life of the
related loans as an adjustment of yield.
ALLOWANCE FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES
The allowance is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb
potential losses in the loan portfolio. Management's determination of the
adequacy of the allowance is based on an evaluation of the portfolio, past loan
loss experience, current economic conditions, volume, growth and composition of
the loan portfolio and other relevant factors. The allowance is increased by
provisions charged to expense and reduced by net charge-offs.
In accordance with SFAS 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan"
and SFAS 118," Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income
Recognition and Disclosure," a loan is deemed impaired when, based on current
information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to
collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan
agreement. These accounting standards require that the measurement of impairment
of a loan be based on either: the present value of expected future cash flows,
net of estimated costs to sell, discounted at the loan's effective interest
rate; a loan's observable market price; or the fair value of collateral, if the
loan is collateral dependent. If the measure of the impaired loan is less than
the recorded investment in the loan, the Company will be required to establish a
valuation allowance, or adjust existing valuation allowances, with a
corresponding charge or credit to the provision for possible loan losses. The
valuation allowance, if any, is maintained as part of the allowance for possible
loan losses. The Company's process of identifying impaired loans is conducted as
part of its review for the adequacy of the allowance for possible loan losses.
While management uses available information to recognize potential losses on
loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in
economic conditions, particularly in its market areas. In addition, various
regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination processes,
periodically review the allowance for possible loan losses of subsidiary banks.
Such agencies may require additions to the allowance based on their judgments of
information available to them at the time of their examinations.
PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT
Land, buildings and furniture, fixtures and equipment are carried at cost.
Depreciation on substantially all buildings and furniture, fixtures and
equipment is provided using the straight-line method based on estimated useful
lives ranging from 3-25 years. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred
and additions and improvements are capitalized.
OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED
Other real estate owned (OREO) includes loan collateral that has been formally
repossessed. These assets are transferred to OREO and recorded at the lower of
carrying cost or fair value of the properties. Subsequent provisions that result
from ongoing periodic evaluations of these OREO properties are charged to
expense in the period in which they are identified. OREO is carried at the lower
of cost or fair value, less estimated costs to sell. Carrying costs, such as
maintenance and property taxes, are charged to expense as incurred.
INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURE
The Company owns 50% of the common stock of United Financial Services, a
third-party data processing service provider.
The investment is being accounted for by the equity method.
<PAGE>
INTANGIBLES
Intangible assets resulting from acquisitions under the purchase method of
accounting consist of goodwill and core deposit intangibles. Goodwill is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from five to ten years.
Core deposit intangibles are being amortized, on a straight-line basis, over the
estimated average remaining lives of such intangible assets (primarily five
years).
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Certain
income and expense items are recorded differently for financial reporting
purposes than for Federal income tax purposes and provisions for deferred taxes
are made in recognition of these temporary differences. A deferred tax valuation
allowance is established if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of
the Company's deferred tax asset will not be realized. Changes in the deferred
tax valuation allowance are reported through charges or credits to the income
tax provision.
The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated Federal income tax return.
Under tax sharing agreements, each subsidiary provides for and settles income
taxes with the Company as if they would have filed on a separate return basis.
As discussed further in Note (2), the Company acquired all of the outstanding
shares of Lafayette on July 1, 1996, all of the outstanding shares of Westport
Bancorp, Inc. (Westport) on December 13, 1996, and all of the outstanding shares
of Poughkeepsie Financial Corp. (PFC) on April 24, 1998,and all of the
outstanding shares of Dime Financial (DFC) on August 21, 1998. Lafayette,
Westport, PFC and DFC established valuation allowances due to uncertainties
surrounding their ability to realize their deferred tax assets. Considering the
combined operating results of the Company, it is unlikely that the Company would
have established these valuation allowances with respect to its deferred tax
assets had the companies previously been combined. Accordingly, the accompanying
financial statements (including quarterly financial information in Note 21) have
been restated to reflect what the changes to the valuation allowance would have
been had the companies always been combined.
TREASURY STOCK
The Company determines the cost of treasury shares under the weighted-average
cost method.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation." This statement establishes financial accounting and
reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans and allows
companies to choose either: 1 ) a fair value method of valuing stock-based
compensation plans which will affect reported net income; or 2) to continue
following the existing accounting rules for stock option accounting but disclose
what the impact would have been had the new standard been adopted. The Company
elected the disclosure option of this standard. See Note 15.
TRANSFERS & SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS
Effective January 1, 1997, the Company adopted SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities."
This statement provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and
servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. Such standards
are based on consistent application of a financial-components approach that
focuses on control. Under that approach, after a transfer of financial assets,
an entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and the
liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when control has been
surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished. This statement
provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets
that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. The adoption of the
standard did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or
results of operations.
PER SHARE AMOUNTS
In the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company adopted SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per
Share." This statement establishes standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share and requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings
per share.
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income, less
dividends on the convertible preferred stock, by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares
plus the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the preferred stock and
the incremental number of shares issuable from the exercise of stock options and
warrants calculated using the treasury stock method. All per share amounts have
been retroactively adjusted for the three-for-two common stock split on January
14, 1995 and for all stock dividends. All prior annual and interim periods
presented have been restated in the new format.
RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income," which establishes standards for the reporting of
comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general purpose
financial statements. The Company has elected to display Consolidated Statements
of Income and Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income separately for the
disclosed periods.
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related information," which requires that a public
business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its
reportable operating segments. The Company's three banking subsidiaries, Hudson
United Bank, Lafayette, and BOTH, which meet the criteria of SFAS No. 131 to be
considered in the aggregate, have been aggregated for purposes of segment
reporting. HUBCO, Inc., the banks' holding company, is not a reportable segment
because it does not exceed any of the quantitative thresholds.
Effective for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS
No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement
Benefits," which standardizes the disclosure requirements for pension and other
postretirement benefits to the extent practicable and requires additional
information on changes in the benefit obligations and fair values of plan
assets.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," establishing standards for
the accounting and reporting of derivatives. The statement is effective for
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999; earlier application is permitted.
The Company has elected not to adopt this statement prior to its effective date.
The Company does not expect that adoption of the statement will have a material
effect on its financial position or results of operations.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash equivalents include amounts due from banks and Federal funds sold.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1997 and 1996 amounts in order
to conform to 1998's presentation.

(5) LOANS AND THE ALLOWANCE FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES
The Company's loan portfolio is diversified with no industry comprising greater
than 10% of the total loans outstanding. Real estate loans are primarily made in
the local lending area of the subsidiary banks.
The allowance for possible loan losses is based on estimates, and ultimate
losses may vary from the current estimates. These estimates are reviewed
periodically and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reflected in
operations in the periods in which they become known.
A summary of the activity in the allowance for possible loan losses is as

United Bancorp warrant is exercisable at $6.85 for one share of Hudson United
Bancorp common stock. The warrants are exercisable at the option of the holder,

----------------------------------
As of December 31, 1998, 2,695,629 shares are exercisable. In connection with
the BOS, CNB, and SJB acquisitions, the Company issued Hudson United Bancorp
common shares to the holders of options to purchase BOS, CNB, and SJB common
stock, the value of which was based on the value of the options on the date of
acquisition.
The Company applies APB Opinion 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for
its plan. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized. Had
compensation cost been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for
awards under those plans consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, the
Company's net income and income per share would have been reduced to the
proforma amounts indicated below (in thousands, except share data):
1998 1997 1996
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net income As reported $ 26,751 $ 83,995 $ 47,304

Basic earnings per share As reported $ 0.50 $ 1.55 $ 0.86

Diluted earnings per As reported $ 0.49 $ 1.48 $ 0.83
share
Pro forma 0.45 1.43 0.80
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions used for 1998
and 1997: dividend yield of 2.59% to 4.35% for 1998 and 1.80% to 3.36% for 1997;
risk-free interest rates of 5.00% to 5.37% for 1998 and 5.50% to 7.50% for 1997;
volatility factors of the expected market price of the Company's common stock of
approximately 22% to 29% in 1998 and 15% to 37% in 1997 and an expected life of
7 to 10 years in 1998 and 5 to 10 years in 1997.
The Company has a restricted stock plan in which 566,500 shares of the Company's
common stock may be granted to officers and key employees. During 1998 and 1997,
84,495 and 16,686 shares of common stock were awarded which vest between two to
five years from the date of grant. The value of shares issued that have not been
vested ($2,277) thousand and ($444) thousand has been recorded as a reduction of
stockholders' equity for 1998 and 1997, respectively. Amortization of restricted
stock awards charged to expense amounted to $275, $135 and $424 in 1998, 1997
and 1996, respectively.
The Company maintained three Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOP) which were
originally established by MSB and IBS, and Jeff. The ESOP established by IBS was
terminated during 1998. Loan payments are funded principally from the Company's
contributions to the ESOP on behalf of eligible employees, which are expensed as
incurred. Shares purchased by the ESOP are held in a suspense account until
allocated to individual participants and are reflected as a reduction of
stockholders' equity.
The Company maintained two Bank Recognition and Retention Plan and Trusts (BRP)
in which shares of the Company's common stock may be granted to plan
participants. These plans were originally established by MSB and IBS but the
shares have been fully vested and allocated in 1998. The expense recognized for
the BRP and ESOP amounted to $9,953, $4,719, and $3,536 for the years ended
December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
On November 8, 1993, the Company's Board of Directors authorized management to
repurchase up to 10 percent of its outstanding common stock each year. The
program may be discontinued or suspended at any time, and there is no assurance
that the Company will purchase the full amount authorized. The acquired shares
are to be held in treasury to be used for stock option and other employee
benefit plans, stock dividends, with the issuance of common stock in pending or
future acquisitions. During 1998, the Company purchased 2.1 million shares at an
aggregate cost of $70.1 million. Most of these shares were reissued during 1998,
primarily in connection with the 3% stock dividend and the exercise of stock
options.
(16) EARNINGS PER SHARE
In the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company adopted SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share." This statement established standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share and requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings
per share. A reconciliation of net income to net income available to common
stockholders and of weighted average common shares outstanding to weighted
average common shares outstanding assuming dilution follows (in thousands,

(17) RESTRICTIONS ON BANK DIVIDENDS, LOANS OR ADVANCES
Certain restrictions exist regarding the ability of Hudson, Lafayette, and Bank
of the Hudson to transfer funds to the Company in the form of cash dividends,
loans or advances. New Jersey state banking regulations allow for the payment of
dividends in any amount
<PAGE>
provided that capital stock will be unimpaired and there remains an additional
amount of paid-in capital of not less than 50 percent of the capital stock
amount. Connecticut state banking regulations allow for the declaration and
payment of cash dividends only from the current year's and the two prior years'
retained net profits. Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) regulations, which
apply to Bank of the Hudson, allow for an institution that has capital in excess
of all fully phased-in regulatory capital requirements before and after a
proposed capital distribution and that is not otherwise restricted in making
capital distributions, to make capital distributions during a calendar year
equal to the greater of (i) 100% of its net earnings to date during the calendar
year plus the amount that would reduce by one-half its "surplus capital ratio"
at the beginning of the calendar year, or (ii) 75% of its net earnings for the
previous four quarters. As of December 31, 1998, $368.1 million was available
for distribution to the Company from Hudson, $7.3 million was available for
distribution to the Company from Lafayette and approximately $8.2 was available
for distribution to the Company from Bank of the Hudson.
Under Federal Reserve regulations, each of the Banks is limited as to the
amounts it may loan to its affiliates, including the Company. All such loans are
required to be collateralized by specific obligations. During 1994, the Company
obtained a loan from Hudson United Bank for $4 million in order to finance the
purchase of its administrative facility. The loan has been collateralized by the
property.
In conformity with the OTS regulations, a "liquidation account" was established
for Bank of the Hudson and acquired banks at the time of their conversion to the
stock form of ownership. In the unlikely event of a complete liquidation of Bank
of the Hudson, holders of savings accounts with qualifying deposits, who
continue to maintain their savings accounts, would be entitled to a distribution
from the "liquidation account" in an amount equal to their then current adjusted
savings account balance before any liquidation distribution could be made with
respect to capital stock. The balance in the "liquidation account" was $12.3
million at December 31, 1998, for Bank of the Hudson. This amount may not be
utilized for the payment of cash dividends to the Company.
(18) LEASES
Total rental expense for all leases amounted to approximately $12.7 million,
$8.3 million and, $8.8 million in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
At December 31, 1998, the minimum total rental commitments under all
noncancellable leases on bank premises with initial or remaining terms of more
than one year were as follows (in thousands):
1999 $ 7,706
2000 6,830
2001 6,125
2002 5,269
2003 and Thereafter 19,182
It is expected that in the normal course of business, leases that expire will be
renewed or replaced by leases of other properties.
(19) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Company and its subsidiaries, from time to time, may be defendants in legal
proceedings. In the opinion of management, based upon consultation with legal
counsel, the ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings will not have a
material effect on the consolidated financial statements. In the normal course
of business, the Company and its subsidiaries have various commitments and
contingent liabilities such as commitments to extend credit, letters of credit
and liability for assets held in trust which are not reflected in the
accompanying financial statements. Loan commitments, commitments to extend lines
of credit and standby letters of credit are made to customers in the ordinary
course of business. Both arrangements have credit risk essentially the same as
that involved in extending loans to customers and are subject to the Company's
normal credit policies. The Company's maximum exposure to credit loss for loan
commitments, primarily unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit
outstanding at December 31, 1998 was $1.2 billion and $60.6 million,
respectively. Commitments under commercial letters of credit used to facilitate
customers trade transactions were $1.0 million at December 31, 1998.

(22) ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial instruments include cash, loan agreements, accounts receivable and
payable, debt securities, deposit liabilities, loan commitments, standby letters
of credit and financial guarantees, among others. The fair value of a financial
instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current
transaction between willing parties, other than a forced or liquidation sale.
Estimated fair values have been determined by the Company using the best
available data and estimation methodology suitable for each category of
financial instruments. For those loans and deposits with floating rates, it is
presumed that estimated fair values generally approximate their recorded book
balances. The estimation methodologies used, the estimated fair values and
recorded book balances of the Company's financial instruments at December 31,
1998 and 1997 were as follows:
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from bank balances and Federal
funds sold. For these instruments, the recorded book balance approximates their
fair value.
For securities in the Company's portfolio, fair value was determined by
reference to quoted market prices. In the few instances where quoted market
prices were not available, prices for similar securities were used. Additional
detail is contained in Note 4 to these consolidated financial statements.

The Company aggregated loans into pools having similar characteristics when
comparing their terms, contractual rates, type of collateral, risk profile and
other pertinent loan characteristics. Since no active market exists for these
pools, fair values were estimated using the present value of future cash flows
expected to be received. Loan rates currently offered by the Bank were used in
determining the appropriate discount rate.

</TABLE>
The Company's remaining assets and liabilities, which are not considered
financial instruments, have not been valued differently than has been customary
with historical cost accounting. There is no material difference between the
notional amount and estimated fair value of off-balance sheet items which are
primarily comprised of unfunded loan commitments which are generally priced at
market at the time of funding.
For certain homogeneous categories of loans, such as some residential mortgages,
fair value is estimated using the quoted market prices for securities backed by
similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair value
of other types of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using
the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar
credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.
<PAGE>
(23) REGULATORY MATTERS
The Company and its subsidiary banks are subject to various regulatory capital
requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum
capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional
discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct
material effect on the Company's financial statements. Under capital adequacy
guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the
Company and its subsidiary banks must meet specific capital guidelines that
involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain
off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices.
Capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgements by
the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require each of the Banks to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and
Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as
defined), of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined) for
Hudson and Lafayette, and tangible and core capital (as defined) to adjusted
total assets (as defined) for Bank of the Hudson. Management believes, as of
December 31, 1998, that the Company and its subsidiary banks meet all capital
adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
<PAGE>
The Bank's actual capital amounts and ratios at December 31 are presented in the

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT
PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Stockholders of Hudson United Bancorp:
We have audited the accompanying supplemental consolidated balance sheets of
Hudson United Bancorp (a New Jersey corporation) and subsidiaries as of December
31, 1998 and 1997, and the related supplemental consolidated statements of
income and comprehensive income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 supplemental financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hudson United
Bancorp and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Board of Directors and Stockholders
JeffBanks, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
JeffBanks, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity and
comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1998. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
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 financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
JeffBanks, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for
