ITEM 1--BUSINESS

INTRODUCTION

       PNC Bank Corp. ("Corporation") is a bank holding company registered
under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended ("Act").  The
Corporation was incorporated under Pennsylvania law in 1983 with the
consolidation of Pittsburgh National Corporation and Provident National
Corporation.  Since 1983, the Corporation has diversified its geographical
presence and product capabilities through numerous strategic acquisitions and
the formation of various non-banking subsidiaries.  At December 31, 1993, the
Corporation operated 9 banking subsidiaries ("Banks") in Pennsylvania,
Kentucky, Ohio, Delaware, Massachusetts and Indiana and 78 non-banking
subsidiaries.  The Corporation's total assets and total shareholders' equity
were $62.1 billion and $4.3 billion, respectively.  Based on 1993 year-end
assets, the Corporation was the 10th largest bank holding company in the nation
as reported by the American Banker.  The Corporation employs approximately
21,100 people on a full-time equivalent basis.

       In 1993, the Corporation's strategic focus was on refining the
line-of-business organizational structure; strategic growth through
acquisitions and continued investment in targeted businesses; managing the
revenue and expense relationship associated with the Corporation's mature
businesses; and marketing the Corporation under a new unified identity with an
emphasis on customer satisfaction.

       On November 30, 1993, the Corporation consummated its acquisition of the
Sears Mortgage Banking Group, which consisted primarily of Sears Mortgage
Corporation, Sears Mortgage Securities Corporation and Sears Savings Bank.
Upon consummation, Sears Savings Bank was converted to a national banking
association and renamed PNC Mortgage Bank, National Association ("PNC
Mortgage"), and the other acquired entities became wholly-owned subsidiaries of
PNC Mortgage.  With this acquisition, the Corporation added consumer assets of
$7.6 billion; a mortgage servicing portfolio approximating $27 billion,
including $21 billion serviced for others; and a national residential mortgage
production network consisting of 117 locations in 33 states. Other acquisitions
during the year are described under Item 7 of this Form 10-K.

       The Corporation delivers a full range of banking products and services
to its customers through four lines of business:  Corporate Banking, Retail
Banking, Investment Management and Trust, and Investment Banking.  For the most
part, these products and services are distributed through the Corporation's
retail banking and mortgage origination office networks or its wholesale
banking offices in certain major metropolitan areas located in the U.S.





                                       1
<PAGE>   4
     Corporate Banking provides financing, liquidity and cash management, and
financial services to businesses and government entities.  Corporate Banking's
focus is on serving customers by developing and delivering products and
services specific to their needs.  Certain market studies indicate that this
line of business has established one of the largest market shares among middle
market companies in the Corporation's primary markets, which include Delaware,
Indiana, Kentucky, New Jersey, Ohio and Pennsylvania.  In addition, Corporate
Banking maintains banking relationships with many of the largest companies in
the U.S. and is a major provider of cash management services.

     Retail Banking provides lending, deposit, investment, payment systems
access, and other financial services to consumers and small businesses.  Such
services are primarily provided through the Corporation's 550 banking offices
located in Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Ohio, Delaware and Indiana.  Certain retail
products, including residential mortgages, student loans and credit cards, are
centrally managed to enhance the Corporation's ability to provide high quality,
low cost products.  The primary focus of Retail Banking is on enhancing sales
and service levels by pursuing acquisitions and consolidating certain
operations.  Retail Banking serves more than two million households and more
than 70,000 small businesses, operates one of the largest student lending
businesses in the U.S. and maintains a mortgage origination network with
offices in 33 states.

     Investment Management and Trust provides investment advice, asset
management, and administrative and custodial services to individuals,
institutions and mutual funds.  Additionally, economic and investment research
services are sold to more than 230 institutions, including brokerage firms,
insurance companies, pension funds and other banks.  At December 31, 1993, the
market value of trust assets under administration totaled $193 billion, with
discretionary authority over $57 billion. According to published rankings, the
Corporation ranks as the largest bank manager of mutual funds, one of the
largest bank trustees for individuals, the fourth-largest institutional money
fund manager and the seventh-largest bank money manager in the nation.

     Investment Banking includes the asset/liability management function of the
Corporation as well as underwriting, brokerage and direct investment services.
Full-service retail brokerage services are provided in selected offices within
the Retail Banking office network through PNC Brokerage Corp and PNC Securities
Corp.  In addition, securities underwriting services are provided by PNC
Securities Corp which ranks as one of the largest bank underwriters of revenue
bonds for the health care industry and colleges and universities.  Private
equity placements for middle market and smaller companies to finance growth or
ownership transition are provided by PNC Capital Corp, PNC Venture Corp and PNC
Equity Management Corp.

CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT

       For a description of the Corporation's credit risk management
activities, information concerning the distribution of the loan portfolio and a
discussion and analysis of risk elements in the loan portfolio see pages 31-35
of the Annual Report to Shareholders, incorporated herein by reference.

       For additional information regarding the Corporation's business, see
Items 7 and 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

       Bank Holding Companies

       As a registered holding company, the Corporation is regulated under the
Act and is subject to supervision and regular inspection by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve Board").  The Act
requires, among other things, the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board
in any case where the Corporation proposes to (i) acquire all or substantially
all of the assets of any bank, (ii) acquire direct or indirect ownership or
control of more than 5 percent of the voting shares of any bank or (iii) merge
or consolidate with any other bank holding company.

       Bank holding companies and their subsidiary banks are also subject to
the provisions of the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977, as amended ("CRA").
Under the terms of the CRA, each subsidiary bank's record in meeting the credit
needs of the community served by that bank, including low- and moderate-income
neighborhoods is annually assessed by that bank's primary regulatory





                                       3
<PAGE>   6
authority.  When a bank holding company applies for approval to acquire a bank
or other bank holding company, the Federal Reserve Board will review the
assessment of each subsidiary bank of the applicant bank holding company, and
such records may be the basis for denying the application.  The federal banking
agencies have issued a notice of proposed rulemaking that would replace the
current CRA assessment system with a new evaluation system that would primarily
rate institutions based on their actual lending activity in the community.
Under the current proposal, each institution would be evaluated based on the
degree to which it is providing loans, branches and other services and
investments to low- and moderate-income areas.

       The Act prohibits the Federal Reserve Board from approving a bank
holding company's application to acquire a bank or bank holding company located
outside the state in which the operations of its banking subsidiaries are
principally conducted, unless such acquisition is specifically authorized by
statute of the state in which the bank or bank holding company to be acquired
is located.  Pennsylvania law permits bank holding companies located in any
state to acquire Pennsylvania banks and bank holding companies, provided that
the home state of the acquiring company has enacted "reciprocal" legislation.
In this context, reciprocal legislation is generally defined as legislation
that expressly authorizes Pennsylvania bank holding companies to acquire banks
or bank holding companies located in another state on terms and conditions
substantially no more restrictive than those applicable to such an acquisition
in Pennsylvania by a bank holding company located in the other state.

       Under the Act, the Corporation is prohibited, with certain exceptions,
from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of any
class of voting shares of any non-banking corporation.  Further, the
Corporation may not engage in any business other than managing and controlling
banks or furnishing certain specified services to subsidiaries, and may not
acquire voting control of non-banking corporations except those corporations
engaged in businesses or furnishing services which the Federal Reserve Board
deems to be so closely related to banking as "to be a proper incident thereto".
The Federal Reserve Board has determined that a number of activities meet this
standard and include:  making and servicing loans; performing certain fiduciary
functions; leasing real and personal property; underwriting and dealing in
government obligations and certain money market instruments; underwriting and
dealing, to a limited extent, in corporate debt obligations and other
securities that banks may not deal in; providing foreign exchange advisory and
transactional services; and owning, controlling or operating a savings
association, if the savings association engages only in deposit-taking
activities and lending and other activities that are permissible for bank
holding companies.  The Board, from time to time, may revise the list of
permitted activities.

       Under Federal Reserve Board policy, a bank holding company is expected
to act as a source of financial strength to each of its subsidiary banks and to
commit resources, including capital funds during periods of financial stress,
to support each such bank. Although this "source of strength" policy has been
challenged in litigation, the Federal Reserve Board continues to take the
position that it has the authority to enforce it.  Consistent with its "source
of strength" policy for subsidiary banks, the Federal Reserve Board has stated
that, as a matter of prudent banking, a bank holding company generally should
not maintain a rate of cash dividends unless its net income available to common
shareholders has been sufficient to fund fully the dividends, and the
prospective rate of earnings retention appears to be consistent with the
company's capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition.

       Subsidiary Banks

       The Banks are subject to supervision and examination by applicable
federal and state banking agencies, including the Office of the Comptroller of
the Currency ("Comptroller") in the case of subsidiaries that are national
banks.  All of the Banks are insured by, and therefore subject to regulations
of, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), and are also subject to
requirements and restrictions under federal and state law, including
requirements to maintain reserves against deposits, restrictions on the types
and amounts of loans that may be granted and the interest that may be charged
thereon, and limitations on the types of investments that may be made and the
types of services that may be offered.  Numerous consumer laws and regulations
also affect the operations of the Banks including, among others, disclosure
requirements, antidiscrimination provisions, and substantative contractual
limitations with respect to deposit accounts.  The banking agencies, together
with the Departments of Justice and Housing and Urban Development, have
announced that they intend to enforce more rigorously compliance with community
reinvestment, antidiscrimination and other fair lending laws and regulations.
In addition to the impact of regulation, commercial banks are affected
significantly by the actions of the Federal Reserve Board as it attempts to
control the money supply and credit availability in order to influence the
economy.

       The parent company's principal assets are its loans and advances to, and
investments in, its Banks and other subsidiaries.  Dividends from the
Corporation's Banks constitute the principal source of income to the parent
company.  The Banks are subject to various statutory restrictions on their
ability to pay dividends to the Corporation.  Under such restrictions, the
amount available for payment of dividends to the Corporation by the Banks was
$942.8 million at December 31, 1993.  In addition, the Comptroller and the
FDIC, in the case of national bank subsidiaries, and the FDIC or the Federal
Reserve Board, in the case of state bank subsidiaries, have authority to
prohibit any such Bank from engaging in an unsafe or unsound practice in
conducting its business.  The payment of dividends, depending upon the
financial condition of the Bank in question, could be deemed to constitute such
an unsafe or unsound practice, and the regulatory agencies have indicated their
view that it generally would be an unsafe and unsound practice to pay dividends
except out of current operating earnings.  The ability of the Banks to pay
dividends in the future is presently, and could be further, influenced, among
other things, by applicable capital guidelines or by bank regulatory and
supervisory policies.

       The ability of the Banks to make funds available to the parent company
is also subject to restrictions imposed by federal law.   For a discussion of
these restrictions see "Regulatory Matters" on pages 56-57 of the Annual Report
to Shareholders, incorporated herein by reference.

       The Banks are also subject to the "cross-guarantee" provisions of
federal law which provide that if one depository institution subsidiary of a
multi-bank holding company fails or requires FDIC assistance, the FDIC may
assess a commonly controlled depository institution for the actual or estimated
losses suffered by the FDIC.  Such liability could have a material adverse
effect upon the financial condition of any assessed bank and its parent
company.  While the FDIC's claim is junior to the claims of depositors, holders
of secured liabilities, general creditors and subordinated creditors, it is
superior to the claims of shareholders and affiliates.





                                       5
<PAGE>   8
       The amount of FDIC assessments paid by individual insured depository
institutions is based on their relative risk as measured by regulatory capital
ratios and certain other factors.  Under this system, in establishing the
insurance premium assessment for each bank, the FDIC will take into
consideration the probability that the deposit insurance fund will incur a loss
with respect to an institution, and will charge an institution with perceived
higher inherent risks a higher insurance premium.  The FDIC will also consider
the different categories and concentrations of assets and liabilities of the
institution, the revenue needs of the deposit insurance fund, and any other
factors the FDIC deems relevant.  Current regulations provide for a minimum
assessment of 23 cents per $100 of eligible deposits.  A significant increase
in the assessment rate or a special additional assessment with respect to
insured deposits could have an adverse impact on the results of operations and
capital levels of the Banks or the Corporation.

       The federal banking agencies possess broad powers to take corrective
action as deemed appropriate for an insured depository institution and its
holding companies.  The extent of these powers depends upon whether the
institution in question is considered "well capitalized," "adequately
capitalized," "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized" or
"critically undercapitalized."  At December 31, 1993, all of the Banks exceeded
the required ratios for classification as well capitalized.  Generally, as an
institution is deemed to be less well capitalized, the scope and severity of
the agencies' powers increase.  The agencies' corrective powers can include,
among other things, requiring an insured financial institution to adopt a
capital restoration plan which cannot be approved unless guaranteed by the
institution's parent holding company; placing limits on asset growth and
restrictions on activities; placing restrictions on transactions with
affiliates; restricting the interest rate the institution may pay on deposits;
prohibiting the institution from accepting deposits from correspondent banks;
prohibiting the payment of principal or interest on subordinated debt;
prohibiting the holding company from making capital distributions without prior
regulatory approval; and, ultimately, appointing a receiver for the
institution.  Business activities may also be influenced by an institution's
capital classification.  For instance, only a "well capitalized" depository
institution may accept brokered deposits without prior regulatory approval and
only an "adequately capitalized" depository institution may accept brokered
deposits with prior regulatory approval.  For a discussion of the current
capital levels of the Corporation, see "Capital" on page 37 of the Annual
Report to Shareholders, incorporated herein by reference.

       Non-bank Subsidiaries

       All of the non-bank subsidiaries of the Corporation are subject to
regulatory restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Board and other federal
or state regulatory agencies.  For example, two subsidiaries of the Corporation
are registered broker-dealers.  The activities of these companies are monitored
by the Comptroller in one instance and the Federal Reserve Board in the other
instance and both are subject to rules and regulations promulgated by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc., the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board, the Securities
Investors Protection Corporation and various state securities commissions.
Several other non-bank affiliates of the Corporation are registered investment
advisors and are subject to the regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission and may be subject to one or more state securities commissions.
Additionally, certain of these investment advisors are subsidiaries of national
banks and are subject to supervision by the Comptroller.  Other non-bank
subsidiaries of the Corporation are regulated under federal and/or state
mortgage lending, insurance and consumer laws, among others.

GOVERNMENTAL POLICIES

       The operations of financial institutions may be affected by legislative
changes.  For example, Congress is presently considering various administration
proposals, including proposals to consolidate the bank regulatory agencies, to
authorize interstate branching and to amend various consumer protection laws.
In addition, Congress is considering various issues relating to the separation
of banking and commerce including, for example, banks' mutual fund activities.
Financial institutions' operations also may be affected by the policies of
various regulatory authorities.  In particular, bank holding companies and
their subsidiaries are affected by the credit policies of the Federal Reserve
Board.  An important function of the Federal Reserve Board is to regulate the
national supply of bank credit.  Among the instruments of monetary policy used
by the Federal Reserve Board to implement its objectives are:  open market
operations in U.S. Government securities; changes in the discount rate on bank
borrowings; and changes in reserve requirements on bank deposits.

       These instruments of monetary policy are used in varying combinations to
influence the overall level of bank loans, investments and deposits, the
interest rates charged on loans and paid for deposits, the price of the dollar
in foreign exchange markets, and the level of inflation.  The monetary policies
of the Federal Reserve Board have had a significant effect on the operating
results of banking institutions in the past and are expected to continue to do
so in the future.  It is not possible to predict the nature of future changes
in monetary and fiscal policies, or the effect that they may have on the
Corporation's business and earnings.

COMPETITION

       Bank holding companies and their subsidiaries are subject to intense
competition from various financial institutions and other companies or firms
that engage in similar activities.  The Banks compete for deposits with other
commercial banks, savings banks, savings and loan associations, insurance
companies, credit unions and issuers of commercial paper and other securities,
such as shares in money market funds.  In making loans, the Banks compete with
other commercial banks, savings banks, savings and loan associations, consumer
finance companies, credit unions, leasing companies and other lenders.  In
addition, PNC Securities Corp, PNC Brokerage Corp, PNC Capital Corp, PNC
Venture Corp and PNC Equity Management Corp compete with commercial banks,
investment banking firms, insurance companies and venture capital firms.  In
providing trust and money management services, the Corporation competes with
other large commercial banks, trust companies, brokerage houses, mutual fund
managers and insurance companies.  Many such competitors have substantial
resources and operations which are national or international in scope.

       The Corporation and its subsidiaries compete not only with financial
institutions based in the states in which the Banks are located, but also with
a number of large out-of-state and foreign banks, bank holding companies and
other financial institutions which have an established market presence in each
state.  Some of the financial institutions operating in these markets are
engaged in local, regional, national and international operations and have more
assets and personnel than the Corporation.

STATISTICAL DISCLOSURES BY BANK HOLDING COMPANIES

         The statistical information contained on pages 63-72 of the Annual
Report to Shareholders is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 2--PROPERTIES

         The executive and administrative offices of the Corporation and PNC
Bank, National Association ("PNC Bank, N.A.") are located in One PNC Plaza,
located at Fifth Avenue and Wood Street, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  This
thirty-story structure is owned by PNC Bank, N.A.  The Corporation and PNC
Bank, N.A. occupy the entire building.  In January 1993, PNC Bank, N.A.
purchased a thirty-four story structure adjacent to One PNC Plaza, now known as
Two PNC Plaza, that contains additional office space.  PNC Bank, N.A. also owns
a recently-constructed data processing and telecommunications center located in
a suburb of Pittsburgh.

         The Corporation's subsidiaries own or lease numerous other premises
for use in conducting banking and non-banking activities.  The facilities owned
or occupied under lease by the Corporation's subsidiaries are considered by
management to be adequate.  Neither the location of any particular office nor
the unexpired term of any lease is deemed material to the business of the
Corporation.

ITEM 3 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         On December 13, 1993, the United States District Court for the Western
District of Pennsylvania dismissed with prejudice the previously reported
consolidated federal securities law class action lawsuit commenced in April
1990 against the Corporation and certain present and former directors and
executive officers and the previously reported shareholders' derivative suit
against such individuals.  The dismissal was entered pursuant to a settlement
agreement approved by the court.  The cost of settlement was covered by
insurance and existing litigation reserves.

         In January 1992, a lawsuit was filed against PNC National Bank
("PNCNB"), a national bank subsidiary of the Corporation located in Wilmington
Delaware, alleging that PNCNB violated Pennsylvania statutes in connection with
certain fees charged on credit cards issued by PNCNB.  The lawsuit is brought
on behalf of a purported class of resident individuals of Pennsylvania who have
contracted for, been charged, had reserved, or have paid these fees, and seeks,
among other things, unquantified compensatory and triple damages and injunctive
relief.  In March 1992, PNCNB filed an answer to the amended complaint, denying
liability and raising several affirmative defenses, and in January 1993, PNCNB
filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings seeking dismissal of the suit.
The lawsuit was filed in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County and has
been removed to the United States District Court for the Western District of
Pennsylvania.  PNCNB is vigorously defending the lawsuit.  The impact of the
final disposition of this litigation on the Corporation cannot be assessed at
the present time.  The lawsuit is one of several brought against a number of
banks, challenging whether a credit card issuing bank can impose various types
of fees allowed by the state where the issuer is located on cardholders
residing in other states that allegedly limit or prohibit those fees.

         The Corporation, in the normal course of business, is subject to
various other pending and threatened lawsuits in which claims for monetary
damages are asserted.  Management, after consultation with legal counsel, does
not anticipate that the ultimate aggregate liability, if any, arising out of
such other lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's
financial position.

         At the present time, management is not in a position to determine
whether any pending or threatened litigation will have a material adverse
effect on the Corporation's results of operations in any future reporting
period.

ITEM 5 - MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND
RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

         The Corporation's common stock is listed on the New York Stock
Exchange and is traded under the symbol "PNC".  At the close of business on
February 28, 1994, there were 43,456 shareholders of record.

         Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends when
declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor.
The Board of Directors may not pay or set apart dividends on the common stock
until dividends for all past dividend periods on any series of outstanding
preferred stock have been paid or declared and set apart for payment.  The
Board presently intends to continue the policy of paying quarterly cash
dividends.  However, the amount of any future dividends will depend upon
earnings, the financial condition of the Corporation and other factors
including applicable government regulations and policies.  The ability to
maintain dividends at current levels is affected by the level of core earnings,
economic conditions, credit quality, regulatory policies, capital needs, growth
objectives, the ability of the Banks and non-bank subsidiaries to upstream
dividends to the parent company and other relevant factors.  See further
discussion concerning dividend restrictions under Item 1 of this Form 10-K and
in "Regulatory Matters" on pages 56-57 of the Annual Report to Shareholders,
which is incorporated herein by reference.

Preferred Stock which are not fixed hereby:


                                PREFERRED STOCK

        1.  Issuance in series. The shares of Preferred Stock may be issued
from time to time in series. Each series shall be so designated as to
distinguish the shares thereof from the shares of all other series. All shares
of any particular series shall be identical except, if entitled to cumulative
dividends, as to the date or dates from which dividends thereon shall be
cumulative. The shares of any one series need not be identical or rank equally
with the shares of any other series except as required by law or as provided
hereby. The Board of Directors is expressly vested with authority to establish
and designate any one or more series of Preferred Stock and to fix and
determine by resolution any designations, preferences, qualifications,
privileges, limitations, restrictions or special or relative rights of
additional series which are not fixed hereby, including the following:

         (a)  The number of shares to constitute the series and the distinctive
   designation thereof.

         (b)  The dividend rate, the dates for payment of dividends, whether
   dividends shall be cumulative, and, if so, the date or dates from which and 
   the extent to which dividends shall be cumulative.

         (c)  The amount or amounts payable upon voluntary or involuntary
   liquidation of the Corporation.

         (d)  The voting rights, if any, of the holders of shares of the series.

         (e)  The redemption price or prices, if any, and the terms and
   conditions on which shares may be redeemed.

         (f)  Whether the shares of the series shall be convertible into or
   exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Corporation or other
   securities, and, if so, the conversion price or prices or the rate or rates
   of conversion or exchange, any adjustments thereof, and any other terms and
   conditions of conversion or exchange.





                                      B-5

<PAGE>   2
         (g)  Whether the shares of the series shall be entitled to the benefit
   of any retirement or sinking fund to be applied to the purchase or
   redemption of such shares, and, if so, the amount thereof and the terms and
   conditions relative to the operation thereof.

         (h)  The rank of the shares of the series, as to dividends and assets,
   in relation to the shares of any other class or series of capital stock of
   the Corporation.

         (i)  Such other preferences, qualifications, privileges, limitations,
   restrictions or special or relative rights of any series as are not fixed
   hereby and as the Board of Directors may deem advisable and state in such
   resolutions.

        2.  Dividends. The holders of shares of each series of Preferred Stock
shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors,
dividends at the rate which shall have been fixed hereby or by the Board of
Directors as authorized hereby with respect to such series, and no more except
as shall have been determined by the Board of Directors as authorized hereby.
If dividends on a particular series shall have been determined hereby or by the
Board of Directors as authorized hereby to be cumulative, no dividends shall be
paid or set apart for payment or declared on the Common Stock or on any class
or series of stock of the Corporation ranking as to dividends subordinate to
such series (other than dividends payable in Common Stock or in any class or
series of stock of the Corporation ranking as to dividends and assets
subordinate to such series) and no payment shall be made or set apart for the
purchase, redemption or other acquisition for value of any shares of Common
Stock or of any class or series of stock of the Corporation ranking as to
dividends or assets subordinate to such series, until dividends (to the extent
cumulative) for all past dividend periods on all outstanding shares of such
series have been paid, or declared and set apart for payment, in full. In case
dividends for any dividend period are not paid in full on all shares of
Preferred Stock ranking equally as to dividends, all such shares shall
participate ratably in the payment of dividends for such period in proportion
to the full amounts of dividends to which they are respectively entitled.

        3.  Liquidation of the Corporation. In the event of voluntary or
involuntary liquidation of the Corporation the holders of shares of each series
of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive from the assets of the
Corporation (whether capital or surplus), prior to any payment to the holders
of Common Stock or of any class or series of stock of the Corporation ranking
as to assets subordinate to such series, the amount fixed hereby or by the
Board of Directors as authorized hereby for such series, plus, in case
dividends on such series shall have been determined hereby or by the Board of
Directors as authorized hereby to be cumulative, an amount equal to the accrued
and unpaid dividends thereon (to the extent cumulative) computed to the date on
which payment thereof is made available, whether or not earned or declared.
After such payment to the holders of shares of such series, any remaining
balance shall be paid to the holders of Common Stock or of any class or series
of stock of the Corporation ranking as to assets subordinate to such series, as
they may be entitled. If, upon liquidation of the Corporation, its assets are
not sufficient to pay in full the amounts so payable to the holders of shares
of all series of Preferred Stock ranking equally as to assets, all such shares
shall participate ratably in the distribution of assets in proportion to the
full amounts to which they are respectively entitled. Neither a merger nor a
consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other corporation nor a sale,
transfer or lease of all or part of the assets of the Corporation shall be 
deemed a liquidation of the Corporation within the meaning of this paragraph.

        4.  Voting rights. (a) Except as otherwise required by law, holders of
shares of Preferred Stock shall have only such voting rights, if any, as shall
have been fixed and determined hereby or by the Board of Directors as
authorized hereby. Except as otherwise required by law or as otherwise provided
hereby or by the Board of Directors as authorized hereby, holders of Preferred
Stock having voting rights and holders of Common Stock shall vote together as
one class.

        (b)  If the Corporation shall have failed to pay, or declare and set
apart for payment, dividends on all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock in an
amount equal to six quarterly dividends at the rates payable upon such shares
(whether or not such dividends are cumulative), the number of directors of the
Corporation shall be increased by two at the first annual meeting of the
shareholders of the Corporation held thereafter, and at such meeting and at
each subsequent annual meeting until cumulative dividends payable for all past
dividend periods and continuous noncumulative dividends for at least one year
on all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock entitled





                                      B-6

<PAGE>   3
thereto shall have been paid, or declared and set apart for payment, in full,
the holders of shares of Preferred Stock of all series shall have the right,
voting as a class, to elect such two additional members of the Board of
Directors to hold office for a term of one year. Upon such payment, or such
declaration and setting apart for payment, in full, the terms of the two
additional directors so elected shall forthwith terminate, and the number of
directors of the Corporation shall be reduced by two, and such voting right of
the holders of shares of Preferred Stock shall cease, subject to increase in
the number of directors as aforesaid and to revesting of such voting right in
the event of each and every additional failure in the payment of dividends in
an amount equal to six quarterly dividends as aforesaid.

        5.  Action by Corporation requiring approval of Preferred Stock. The
Corporation shall not, without the affirmative vote at a meeting, or the
written consent with or without a meeting, of the holders of at least
two-thirds of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock of all series (a)
create or increase the authorized number of shares of any class of stock
ranking as to dividends or assets prior to the Preferred Stock; or (b) change
the preferences, qualifications, privileges, limitations, restrictions or
special or relative rights granted to or imposed upon the shares of Preferred
Stock in any material respect adverse to the holders thereof, provided that if
any such change will affect any particular series materially and adversely as
contrasted with the effect thereof upon any other series, no such change may be
made without, in addition, such vote or consent of the holders of at least  
two-thirds of the then outstanding shares of the particular series which would
be so affected.

        6.  Redemption and acquisition (a) Except as otherwise provided by the
Board of Directors as authorized hereby, the Corporation, at its option to be
exercised by its Board of Directors, may redeem the whole or any part of the
Preferred Stock or of any series thereof at such times and at the applicable
amount for each share which shall have been fixed and determined hereby or by
the Board of Directors as authorized hereby with respect thereto, plus, in case
dividends shall have been determined hereby or by the Board of Directors as
authorized hereby to be cumulative, an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid
dividends thereon (to the extent cumulative) computed to the date fixed for
redemption, whether or not earned or declared (hereinafter collectively called
the "redemption price"). If at any time less than all of the Preferred Stock
then outstanding is to be called for redemption, the Board may select one or
more series to be redeemed, and if less than all the outstanding Preferred
Stock of any series is to be called for redemption, the shares to be redeemed
may be selected by lot or by such other equitable method as the board in its
discretion may determine. Notice of every redemption, stating the redemption
date, the redemption price, and the place of payment thereof, and, if less than
all of the Preferred Stock then outstanding is called for redemption,
identifying the shares to be redeemed, shall be published at least once in a
newspaper printed in the English language and of general circulation in the
City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, or in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of
New York, New York, the first publication to be not less than 30 nor more than
60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. Copies of such notice shall be
mailed at least 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for
redemption to the holders of record of the shares to be redeemed at their
addresses as the same shall appear on the books of the Corporation, but failure
to give such additional notice by mail or any defect therein or failure of any
addressee to receive it shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for
redemption. The Corporation, upon publication of the first notice of redemption
as aforesaid or upon irrevocably authorizing the bank or trust company
hereinafter mentioned to publish such notice as aforesaid, may deposit or cause
to be deposited in trust with a bank or trust company in the City of
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, or in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New
York, New York an amount equal to the redemption price of the shares to be
redeemed, which amount shall be payable to the holders thereof upon surrender
of certificates therefor on or after the date fixed for redemption or prior
thereto if so directed by the Board of Directors. Upon such deposit, or if no
such deposit is made then from and after the date fixed for redemption unless
the Corporation shall default in making payment of the redemption price upon
surrender of certificates as aforesaid, the shares called for redemption shall
cease to be outstanding and the holders thereof shall cease to be shareholders
with respect to such shares and shall have no interest in or claim against the
Corporation with respect to such shares other than the right to receive the
redemption price form such bank or trust company or from the Corporation, as
the case may be, without interest thereon, upon surrender of certificates as
aforesaid; provided that conversion rights of shares called for redemption
shall terminate at the close of business on the date fixed for redemption or at
such earlier time as shall have been fixed by the board of Directors as
authorized hereby. Any funds so deposited which shall not be required for such
redemption because of the exercise of conversion rights subsequent to the date
of such deposit shall be returned to the Corporation. In case any holder of
shares called for redemption shall not, within



                                     B-7

<PAGE>   4
six years after the date of such deposit, have claimed the amount deposited
with respect to the redemption thereof, such bank or trust company, upon
demand, shall pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amount and shall
thereupon be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof to such holder,
and thereafter such holder shall look only to the Corporation for payment
thereof. Any interest which may accrue on funds so deposited shall be paid to
the Corporation from time to time.

        (b)  Except as otherwise provided by the Board of Directors as
authorized hereby, the Corporation shall have the right to acquire Preferred
Stock from time to time at such price or prices as the Corporation may
determine, provided that unless dividends (to the extent cumulative) payable
for all past quarterly dividend periods on all outstanding shares of Preferred
Stock entitled to cumulative dividends have been paid, or declared and set
apart for payment, in full, the Corporation shall not acquire for value any
shares of Preferred Stock except in accordance with an offer (which may vary as
to terms offered with respect to shares of different series but not with
respect to shares of the same series) made in writing or by publication (as
determined by the Board of Directors) to all holders of record of shares of
Preferred Stock.

        (c)  Except as otherwise provided by the Board of Directors as
authorized hereby, Preferred Stock redeemed or acquired by the Corporation
otherwise than by conversion shall not be cancelled or retired except by action
of the Board and shall have the status of authorized and unissued Preferred
Stock which may be reissued by the Board as shares of the same or any other
series until cancelled and retired by action of the Board, but, at the option
of the Board, Preferred Stock acquired otherwise than by redemption or
conversion may be held as treasury shares which may be reissued by the Board
until cancelled and retired by action of the Board.


             $1.80 CUMULATIVE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK, SERIES A

        7.  Designation. A series of Preferred Stock designated $1.80 Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A (Redeemable) (herein called "Series A
Preferred Stock") is hereby established, consisting of 98,583 shares subject to
increase or decrease in the number of shares in accordance with law.

        8.  Dividends. The dividend rate of shares of this series shall be $1.80
per share per year, payable quarterly on the tenth day of each March, June,
September and December. Dividends shall be cumulative from the March 10, June
10, September 10 or December 10 next preceding the date of issue of each share,
unless the date of issue is a quarterly dividend payment date or a date between
the record date for the determination of holders of $1.80 Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock or Provident National Corporation, a predecessor of
the Corporation (such stock having been converted into the Series A Preferred
Stock), entitled to receive a quarterly dividend and the date of payment of
such quarterly dividend, in either of which events such dividends shall be
cumulative from such quarterly dividend payment date.

        9.  Liquidation. The amount payable upon shares of Series A Preferred
Stock in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation of the Corporation,
prior to any payment to the holders of Common Stock or of any class or series
of stock of the Corporation ranking as to assets subordinate to the Series A
Preferred Stock, shall be $40.00 per share plus an amount equal to accrued and
unpaid dividends thereon computed to the date on which payment thereof is made
available, whether or not earned or declared.

        10.  Redemption. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be redeemable
at any time at $40.00 per share plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid
dividends thereon computed to the date fixed for redemption, whether or not
earned or declared.

        11.  Voting rights. Each holder of record of Series A Preferred Stock
shall have the right to a number of votes equal to the number of full shares of
Common Stock into which the share or shares of Series A Preferred Stock 
standing in his name on the books of the Corporation are at the time 
convertible.





                                     B-8

<PAGE>   5
        12.  Conversion provisions. (a) Shares of Series A Preferred Stock may,
at the option of the holder, be converted into Common Stock of the Corporation
(as such stock may be constituted on the conversion date) at the rate of two
shares of Common Stock for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, subject to
adjustment as provided herein; provided that, as to any shares of Series A
Preferred Stock which shall have been called for redemption, the conversion
right shall terminate at the close of business on the date fixed for
redemption.

        (b)  The holder of a share or shares of Series A Preferred Stock may
exercise the conversion right as to any thereof by delivering to the
Corporation, during regular business hours, at its principal office or at the
office of any of its transfer agents for the Series A Preferred Stock or at
such other place as may be designated by the Corporation, the certificate or
certificates for the shares to be converted, duly endorsed or assigned in blank
or to the Corporation (if required by it), accompanied by written notice
stating that the holder elects to convert such shares and stating the name or
names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for Common Stock
are to be issued. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date
when such delivery is made, and such date is referred to herein as the
"conversion date". As promptly as practicable thereafter the Corporation shall
issue and deliver to or upon the written order of such holder, at such office
or other place designated by the Corporation, a certificate or certificates for
the number of full shares of Common Stock to which he is entitled and a check,
cash, scrip certificate or other adjustment in respect of any fraction of a
share as provided in section 12(d) below. The person in whose name the
certificate or certificates for Common Stock are to be issued shall be deemed
to have become a holder of such Common Stock of record on the conversion date
unless the transfer books of the Corporation are closed on that date, in which
event he shall be deemed to have become a holder of such Common Stock of record
on the next succeeding date on which the transfer books are open, but the
conversion rate shall be that in effect on the conversion date.

        (c)  No payment or adjustment shall be made for dividends accrued on any
shares of Series A Preferred Stock converted or for dividends on any shares of
Common Stock issuable on conversion.

        (d)  The Corporation shall not be required to issue any fraction of a
share upon conversion of any share or shares of Series A Preferred Stock. If
more than one share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be surrendered for
conversion at one time by the same holder, the number of full shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the
total number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock so surrendered. If any
fractional interest in a share of Common Stock would be deliverable upon
conversion, the Corporation shall make an adjustment therefor in cash unless
its Board of Directors shall have determined to adjust fractional interest by
issuance of scrip certificates or in some other manner. Adjustment in cash
shall be made on the basis of the current market value of one share of Common
Stock, which shall be taken to be the last reported sale price of the
Corporation's Common Stock on the principal stock exchange on which the Common
Stock is then listed on the last business day before the conversion date or, if
there was no reported sale on that day, the average of the closing bid and
asked quotations on that exchange on that day or, if the Common Stock is not
then listed on any stock exchange, the average of the lowest bid and the
highest asked quotations in the over-the-counter market on that day.

        (e)  The issuance of Common Stock on conversion of Series A Preferred
Stock shall be without charge to the converting holder of Series A Preferred
Stock for any tax in respect of the issuance thereof, but the Corporation shall
not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer
involved in the issuance and delivery of shares in any name other than that of
the holder of record on the books of the Corporation of the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock converted, and the Corporation shall not be required to issue
or deliver any certificate for shares of Common Stock unless and until the
person requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the
amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the
Corporation that such tax has been paid.

        (f)  The conversion rate provided in section 12(a) shall be subject to
the following adjustments, which shall be made to the nearest one-hundredth of
a share of Common Stock or, if none, to the next lower one-hundredth:

        (1)  If the Corporation shall pay to the holders of its Common Stock a
   dividend in shares of Common Stock, the conversion rate in effect
   immediately prior to the record date fixed for the determination of the
   holders of Common Stock entitled to such dividend shall be proportionately
   increased, effective at the opening of business on the next following full
   business day.





                                     B-9

<PAGE>   6
       (2)  If the Corporation shall split the outstanding shares of its Common
   Stock into a greater number of shares or combine the outstanding shares into
   a smaller number, the conversion rate in effect immediately prior to such
   action shall be proportionately increased in the case of a split or
   decreased in the case of a combination, effective at the opening of business
   on the full business day next following the day such action becomes
   effective.

       (3)  If the Corporation shall issue to the holders of its Common Stock
   rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of its Common Stock
   at a price less than 90% of the Current Market Price (as defined below in
   this paragraph) of the Corporation's Common Stock at the record date fixed
   for the determination of the holders of Common Stock entitled to such rights
   or warrants, the conversion rate in effect immediately prior to said record
   date shall be increased, effective at the opening of business on the next
   following full business day, to an amount determined by multiplying such
   conversion rate by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares
   of Common Stock of the Corporation outstanding immediately prior to said
   record date plus the number of additional shares of its Common Stock offered
   for subscription or purchase and the denominator of which is said number of
   shares outstanding immediately prior to said record date plus the number of
   shares of Common Stock of the Corporation which the aggregate subscription
   or purchase price of the total number of shares so offered would purchase at
   the Current Market Price of the Corporation's Common Stock at said record
   date. The term "Current Market Price" at said record date shall mean the
   average of the daily last reported sale prices per share of the
   Corporation's Common Stock on the principal stock exchange on which the
   Common Stock is then listed during the 20 consecutive full business days
   commencing with the 30th full business day before said record date, provided
   that if there was no reported sale on any such day or days there shall be
   substituted the average of the closing bid and asked quotations on that
   exchange on that day, and provided further that if the Common Stock was not
   listed on any stock exchange on any such day or days there shall be
   substituted the average of the lowest bid and the highest asked quotations
   in the over-the-counter market on that day.

        (g)  No adjustment of the conversion rate provided in section 12(a)
shall be made by reason of the issuance of Common Stock for cash except as
provided in section 12(f)(3), or by reason of the issuance of Common Stock for
property or services. Whenever the conversion rate is adjusted pursuant to
section 12(f) the Corporation shall (1) promptly place on file at its principal
office and at the office of each of its transfer agents for the Series A
Preferred Stock a statement signed by the Chairman of the Board, the President
or a Vice President of the Corporation and by its Treasurer or an Assistant
Treasurer showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the
conversion rate after such adjustment, and shall make such statement available
for inspection by shareholders of the Corporation, and (2) cause a notice to be
published at least once in a newspaper printed in the English language and of
general circulation in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, or in the
Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, New York, stating that such
adjustment has been made and the adjusted conversion rate.

        (h)  If the Corporation shall issue to the holders of its Common Stock
rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of its Common Stock or
any other security, or if the Corporation shall distribute to the holders of
its Common Stock any evidences of indebtedness or any other assets (excluding
dividend and distributions in cash), the Corporation shall mail to each holder
of record of a share or shares of Series A preferred Stock, at his address as
it shall appear on the books of the Corporation, a notice stating the record
date fixed or to be fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock
of record entitled to such issuance or distribution. Such notice shall be
mailed at least 10 days before such record date. Failure to mail such notice or
any defect therein or failure of any addressee to receive it shall not affect
the validity of such issuance or distribution or any vote thereon.

        (i)  In case of any reclassification or change in the outstanding shares
of Common Stock of the Corporation (except a split or combination of shares) or
in case of any consolidation or merger to which the Corporation is a party
(except a merger in which the Corporation is the surviving Corporation and
which does not result in any reclassification of or change in the outstanding
Common Stock of the Corporation except a split or combination of shares) or in
case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation of all or substantially
all of the property of the Corporation, effective provision shall be made by
the Corporation or by the successor or purchasing corporation (1) that the
holder of each share of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding shall
thereafter have the right to convert such share into the kind and amount of
stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reclassification,
change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of
shares of Common Stock of the Corporation into which such share of Series A
Preferred Stock might have been converted immedi-

ately prior thereto, and (2) that there shall be subsequent adjustments of the
conversion rate which shall be equivalent, as nearly as practicable, to the
adjustment provided for inspection 12(f). The provisions of this section 12(i)
shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations,
mergers, sales or conveyances.

        (j)  Shares of Common Stock issued on conversion of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock shall be issued as fully paid shares and shall be nonassessable
by the Corporation. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep
available for the purpose of effecting the conversion of Series A Preferred
Stock, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall be
sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A
Preferred Stock.

        (k)  Shares of Series A Preferred Stock converted as provided herein
shall not be reissued.

        14.  Dividends. The dividend rate of shares of Series B Preferred Stock

of each share, unless the date of issue is a quarterly dividend payment date or
a date between the record date for the determination of holders of $1.80
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, 1971 Series, of Provident National
Corporation, a predecessor of the Corporation (such stock having been converted
into the Series B Preferred Stock), entitled to receive a quarterly dividend
and the date of payment of such quarterly dividend, in either of which events
such dividends shall be cumulative from such quarterly dividend payment date.

        15.  Liquidation. The amount payable upon shares of Series B Preferred
Stock in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation of the Corporation,
prior to any payment to the holders of Common Stock or of any class or series
of stock of the Corporation ranking as to assets subordinate to the Series B
Preferred Stock, shall be $40.00 per share plus an amount equal to accrued and
unpaid dividends thereon computed to the date on which payment thereof is made
available, whether or not earned or declared.

        16.  Rank. The Series B Preferred Stock shall rank, as to dividends and
assets, equally with the series of Preferred Stock of the Corporation
designated $1.80 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A (Redeemable).

        17.  Redemption. Shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall not be
redeemable.

        18.  Voting rights. Each holder of record of Series B Preferred Stock
shall have the right to a number of votes equal to the number of full shares of
Common Stock into which the share or shares of Series B Preferred Stock
standing in his name on the books of the Corporation are at the time
convertible.

        19.  Conversion provision. (a) Shares of Series B Preferred Stock may,
at the option of the holder, be converted into Common Stock of the Corporation
(as such stock may be constituted on the conversion date) at the rate of two
shares of Common Stock for each share of Series B Preferred Stock, subject to
adjustment as provided herein.





                                     B-11

<PAGE>   8
        (b)  the holder of a share or shares of Series B Preferred Stock may
exercise the conversion right as to any thereof by delivering to the
Corporation during regular business hours, at its principal office or at the
office of any of its transfer agents for the Series B Preferred Stock or at
such other place as may be designated by the Corporation, the certificate or
certificates for the shares to be converted, duly endorsed or assigned in blank
or to the Corporation (if required by it), accompanied by written notice
stating that the holder elects to convert such shares and stating the name or
names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for Common Stock
are to be issued. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date
when such delivery is made, and such date is referred to herein as the
"conversion date". As promptly as practicable thereafter the Corporation shall
issue and deliver to or upon the written order of such holder, at such office
or other place designated by the Corporation, a certificate or certificates for
the number of full shares of Common Stock to which he entitled and a check,
cash, scrip certificate or other adjustment in respect of any fraction of a
share as provided in section 19(d) below. The person in whose name the
certificate or certificates for Common Stock are to be issued shall be
deemed to have become a holder of such Common Stock of record on the conversion
date unless the transfer books of the Corporation are closed on that date, in
which event he shall be deemed to have become a holder of such Common Stock of
record on the next succeeding date on which the transfer books are open, but
the conversion rate shall be that in effect on the conversion date.

        (c)  No payment or adjustment shall be made for dividends accrued on any
shares of Series B Preferred Stock converted or for dividends on any shares of
Common Stock issuable on conversion.

        (d)  The Corporation shall not be required to issue any fraction of a
share upon conversion of any share or shares of Series B Preferred Stock. If
more than one share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be surrendered for
conversion at one time by the same holder, the number of full shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the
total number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock so surrendered. If any
fractional interest in a share of Common Stock would be deliverable upon
conversion, the Corporation shall make an adjustment therefor in cash unless
its Board of Directors shall have determined to adjust fractional interests by
issuance of scrip certificates or in some other manner. Adjustment in cash
shall be made on the basis of the current market value of one share of Common
Stock, which shall be taken to the last reported sale price of the
Corporation's Common Stock on the principal stock exchange on which the Common
Stock is then listed on the last business day before the conversion date or, if
there was no reported sale on that day, the average of the closing bid and
asked quotations on that exchange on that day or, if the Common Stock is not
then listed on any stock exchange, the average of the lowest bid and the
highest asked quotations in the over-the-counter market on that day.

        (e)  The issuance of Common Stock on conversion of Series B Preferred
Stock shall be without charge to the converting holder of Series B Preferred
Stock for any tax in respect of the issuance thereof, but the Corporation shall
not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer
involved in the issuance and delivery of shares in any name other than that of
the holder of record on the books of the Corporation of the shares of Series B
Preferred Stock converted, and the Corporation shall not be required to issue
or deliver any certificate for shares of Common Stock unless and until the
person requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the
amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the
Corporation that such tax has been paid.

        (f)  The conversion rate provided in section 19(a) above shall be     
subject to the following adjustments, which shall be made to the nearest
one-hundredth of a share of Common Stock or, if none, to the next lower
one-hundredth:

        (1)  If the Corporation shall pay to the holders of its Common Stock a  
   dividend in shares of Common Stock, the conversion rate in effect
   immediately prior to the record date fixed for the determination of the
   holders of Common Stock entitled to such dividend shall be proportionately
   increased, effective at the opening of business on the next following full
   business day.

        (2)  If the Corporation shall split the outstanding shares of its Common
   Stock into a greater number of shares or combine the outstanding shares into
   a smaller number, the conversion rate in effect immediately prior to such
   action shall be proportionately increased in the case of a split or
   decreased in the case of a combination, effective at the opening of business
   on the full business day next following the day such action becomes
   effective.





                                     B-12

<PAGE>   9
        (3)  If the Corporation shall issue to the holders of its Common Stock
rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of its Common Stock at a
price less that 90% of the Current Market Price (as defined below in this
paragraph) of the Corporation's Common Stock at the record date fixed for the
determination of the holders of Common Stock entitled to such rights or
warrants, the conversion rate in effect immediately prior to said record date
shall be increased, effective at the opening of business on the next following
full business day, to an amount determined by multiplying such conversion rate
by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock of
the Corporation outstanding immediately prior to said record date plus the
number of additional shares of its Common Stock offered for subscription or
purchase and the denominator of which is said number of shares outstanding
immediately prior to said record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock
of the Corporation which the aggregate subscription or purchase price of the
total number of shares so offered would purchase at the Current Market Price of
the Corporation's Common Stock at said record date. The term "Current Market
Price" at said record date shall mean the average of the daily last reported
sale prices per share of the Corporation's Common Stock on the principal stock
exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed during the 20 consecutive
full business days commencing with the 30th full business day before said
record date, provided that if there was no reported sale on any such day or
days there shall be substituted the average of the closing bid and asked
quotations on that exchange on that day, and provided further that if the
Common Stock was not listed on any stock exchange on any such day or days there
shall be substituted the average of the lowest bid and the highest asked
quotations in the over-the-counter market on that day.

        (g)  No adjustment of the conversion rate provided in section 19(a)
above shall be made by reason of the issuance of Common Stock for cash except
as provided in section 19(f)(3) above, or by reason of the issuance of Common
Stock for property or services. Whenever the conversion rate is adjusted
pursuant to section 19(f) above the Corporation shall (1) promptly place on
file at its principal office and at the office of each of its transfer agents
for the Series B Preferred Stock a statement signed by the Chairman of the
Board, the President or a Vice President of the Corporation and by its
Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer showing in detail the facts requiring such
adjustment and the conversion rate after such adjustment, and shall make such
statement available for inspection by shareholders of the Corporation, and (2)
cause a notice to be published at least once in a newspaper printed in the
English language and of general circulation in the City of Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania, or in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, New York,
stating that such adjustment has been made and the adjusted conversion rate.

        (h)  If the Corporation shall issue to the holders of its Common Stock
rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of its Common Stock or
any other security, or if the Corporation shall distribute to the holders of
its Common Stock any evidences of indebtedness or any other assets (excluding
dividends and distributions in cash), the Corporation shall mail to each holder
of record of a share or shares of Series B Preferred Stock, at his address as
it shall appear on the books of the Corporation, a notice stating the record
date fixed or to be fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock
of record entitled to such issuance or distribution. Such notice shall be
mailed at least 10 days before such record date. Failure to mail such notice or
any defect therein or failure of any addressee to receive it shall not affect
the validity of such issuance or distribution or any vote thereon.

        (i)  In case of any reclassification or change of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock of the Corporation (except a split or combination of shares) or
in case of any consolidation or merger to which the Corporation is a party
(except a merger in which the Corporation is the surviving corporation and
which does not result in any reclassification of or change in the outstanding
Common Stock of the Corporation except a split or combination of shares) or in
case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation of all substantially all
of the property of the Corporation, effective provision shall be made by the
Corporation or by the successor or purchasing corporation (i) that the holder
of each share of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding shall thereafter
have the right to convert such share into the kind and amount of stock and
other securities and property receivable upon such reclassification, change,
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares
of Common Stock of the Corporation into which such share of Series B Preferred
Stock might have been converted immediately prior thereto, and (2) that there
shall be subsequent adjustments of the conversion rate which shall be
equivalent, as nearly as practicable, to the adjustments provided for in
section 19(f) above. The provisions of this section 19(i) shall similarly apply
to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations, mergers, sales or
conveyances.





                                     B-13

<PAGE>   10
        (j)  Shares of Common Stock issued on conversion of shares of Series B
Preferred Stock shall be issued as fully paid shares and shall be nonassessable
by the Corporation. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep 
available for the propose of effecting the conversion of Series B Preferred 
Stock, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall be 
sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series B 
Preferred Stock.

        (k)  Shares of Series B Preferred Stock converted as provided herein
shall not be reissued.

        20.  Retirement or sinking fund. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock
shall not be entitled to the benefit of any retirement or sinking fund to be
applied to the purchase or redemption of such shares.

                                  COMMON STOCK

        21.  Each holder of record of Common Stock shall have the right to one

        22.  No holder of any class of capital stock of the Corporation shall be
entitled to cumulate his votes for the election of directors.

have preemptive rights, and the Corporation shall have the right to issue and
to sell to any person or persons any shares of its capital stock or any option
rights or any securities having conversion or option rights, without first
offering such shares, rights or securities to any holders of any class of
capital stock of the Corporation.

        RESOLVED, that a third series of Preferred Stock, par value $1.00, of
PNC Financial Corp ("Corporation") is hereby established and that the shares of
said series shall have, in addition to the preferences, qualifications,
privileges, limitations, restrictions and special or relative rights in respect
of Preferred Stock granted or created by law and by the Corporation's Articles
of Incorporation, the following preferences, qualifications, privileges,
limitations, restrictions and special or relative rights which are hereby fixed
and determined:

        1.  Designation. A series of Preferred Stock designated "$1.60
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, Series C" (herein called "Series C
Preferred Stock") is hereby established, consisting of 1,417,149 shares subject
to increase or decrease in the number of shares in accordance with law.

        2.  Rank. Series C Preferred Stock shall rank, as to dividends and
assets, equally with the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred
Stock and every other share of capital stock from time to time outstanding
which is not Common Stock of the Corporation and which is not specifically made
senior or subordinate to the Series C Preferred Stock as to dividends or
assets.

        3.  Dividends. The dividend rate of shares of this series shall be $1.60
per share per year, payable in equal quarterly installments on the first day of
each January, April, July and October. Dividends shall be cumulative from the
January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 next preceding the date of issue of
each share, unless the date of issue is a quarterly dividend payment date or a
date between the record date for the determination of holders of record of
Series C Preferred Stock entitled to receive a quarterly dividend and the date
of payment of such quarterly dividend, in either of which events such dividends
shall be cumulative from such dividend payment date.

        4.  Liquidation. The amount payable upon shares of Series C Preferred
Stock in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation of the Corporation,
prior to any payment to the holders of Common Stock or of any class or series
of stock of the Corporation ranking as to assets subordinate to the Series C
Preferred Stock, shall be $20.00 per share plus an amount equal to accrued and
unpaid dividends thereon computed to the date on which payment thereof is made
available, whether or not earned or declared.

        5.  Redemption. Shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be redeemable
at any time after [insert first day of the month following the fifth
anniversary of the Effective Date of the Merger] at $20.00 per share plus an
amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends thereon computed to the date fixed
for redemption, whether or not earned or declared.

        6.  Voting rights. Each holder of record of Series C Preferred Stock
shall have the right to a number of votes equal to the number or full shares of
Common Stock into which the share or shares of Series C Preferred Stock
standing in his name on the books of the Corporation are at the time
convertible.

        7.  Conversion provisions. (a) Shares of Series C Preferred Stock may,
at the option of the holder, be converted into Common Stock of the Corporation
(as such stock may be constituted on the conversion date) at the conversion
price, determined as hereinafter provided, in effect at the time of conversion,
subject to adjustment as provided herein; provided that, as to any shares of
Series C Preferred Stock, which shall have been called for redemption, the
conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on the date fixed for
redemption. The value of each share of Series C Preferred Stock for the purpose
of such conversion shall be $20,00. The price at which shares of Common Stock
of the Corporation shall be delivered upon conversion (herein called the
"conversion price") shall initially be $48.00 per share of Common Stock of the
Corporation.

        (b)  The holder of a share or shares of Series C Preferred Stock may
exercise the conversion right as to any thereof by delivering to the
Corporation, during regular business hours, at its principal office or at the
office of any of its transfer agents for the Series C Preferred Stock or at
such other place as may be designated by the Corporation, the certificate or
certificates for the shares to be converted, duly endorsed or assigned in blank
or to

<PAGE>   12
the Corporation (if required by it), accompanied by written notice stating that
the holder elects to convert such shares and stating the name or names (with
address) in which the certificate or certificates for Common Stock are to be
issued. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date when such
delivery is made, and such date is referred to herein as the "conversion date".
As promptly as practicable thereafter the Corporation shall issue and deliver
to or upon the written order of such holder, at such office or other place
designated by the Corporation, a certificate or certificates for the number of
full shares of Common Stock to which he is entitled and cash, scrip certificate
or other adjustment in respect of any fraction of a share as provided in
section 7(d) below. The person in whose name the certificate or certificates
for Common Stock are to be issued shall be deemed to have become a holder of
such Common Stock of record on the conversion date unless the transfer books of
the Corporation are closed on that date, in which event he shall be deemed to
have become a holder of such Common Stock of record on the next succeeding date
on which the transfer books are open, but the conversion price shall be that in
effect on the conversion date.

        (c)  No payment or adjustment shall be made for dividends accrued on any
shares of Series C Preferred Stock converted or for dividends on any shares of
Common Stock issuable on conversion.

        (d)  The Corporation shall not be required to issue any fraction of a
share upon conversion of any share or shares of Series C Preferred Stock. If
more than one share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be surrendered for
conversion at one time by the same holder, the number of full shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the
total number or shares of Series C Preferred Stock so surrendered. If any
fractional interest in a share of Common Stock would be deliverable upon
conversion, the Corporation shall make an adjustment therefor in cash unless
its Board of Directors shall have determined to adjust fractional interests by
issuance of scrip certificates or in some other manner. Adjustment in cash
shall be made on the basis of the current market value of one share of Common
Stock, which shall be taken to be the last reported sale price of the
Corporation's Common Stock on the principal stock exchange on which the Common
Stock is then listed (or if not so listed, on the over-the-counter market) for
the last business day before the conversion date or, if there was no reported
sale on that day, the last reported sales price on the first preceding day for
which such price is available.

        (c)  The issuance of Common Stock on conversion of Series C Preferred
Stock shall be without charge to the converting holder of Series C Preferred
Stock for any tax in respect of the issuance thereof, but the Corporation shall
not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer
involved in the issuance and delivery of shares in any name other than that of
the holder of record on the books of the Corporation of the shares of Series C
Preferred Stock converted, and the Corporation shall not be required to issue
or deliver any certificate for shares of Common Stock unless and until the
person requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the
amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the
Corporation that such tax has been paid.

        (f)  The conversion price provided in section 7(a) shall be subject to
the following adjustments, which shall be made to the nearest cent:

            (1)  If the Corporation shall pay to the holders of its Common Stock
     a dividend in shares of Common Stock, the conversion price in effect
     immediately prior to the record date fixed for the determination of the
     holders of Common Stock entitled to such dividend shall be proportionately
     decreased, effective at the opening of business on the next following full
     business day.

            (2)  If the Corporation shall split the outstanding shares of its
     Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine the outstanding
     shares into a smaller number, the conversion price in effect immediately
     prior to such action shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a
     split or increased in the case of a combination, effective at the opening
     of business on the full business day next following the day such action
     becomes effective.

            (3)  If the Corporation shall issue to the holders of its Common
     Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of its Common
     Stock at a price less than 90% of the Current Market Price (as defined
     below in this paragraph) of the Corporation's Common Stock at the record
     date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock entitled
     to such rights or warrants, the conversion price in effect immediately
     prior to said record date shall be adjusted, effective at the opening of
     business on the next following full business day, to an amount determined
     by multiplying such conversion price by a fraction the numerator of

<PAGE>   13
     which is the number of shares of Common Stock of the corporation
     outstanding immediately prior to said record date plus the number of
     shares of Common Stock of the Corporation which the aggregate subscription
     or purchase price of the total number of shares so offered would purchase  
     at the Current Market Price of the Corporation's Common Stock at said
     record date and the denominator of which is said number of shares
     outstanding immediately prior to said record date plus the number of
     additional shares of its Common Stock offered for subscription or
     purchase. The term "Current Market Price" at said record date shall mean
     the average of the daily last reported sale prices per share of the
     Corporation's Common Stock on the principal stock exchange on which the
     Common Stock is then listed (or if not so listed, then on the
     over-the-counter market) during the 20 consecutive full business days
     commencing with the 30th full business day before said record date,
     provided that if there was no reported sale on any such day or days there
     shall be substituted the average of the closing bid and asked quotations
     on that day obtained from the market specialist assigned to the
     Corporation (or a market maker in the case of the over-the-counter
     market).

            4.  The Corporation may make such reductions in the conversion
     price, in addition to those required by the foregoing provisions, as it
     considers to be advisable in order that any event treated for federal
     income tax purposes as a dividend of stock or stock rights shall not be
     taxable to the recipients.

        (g)  No adjustment of the conversion price provided in section 7(a)
shall be made by reason of the issuance of Common Stock for cash except as
provided in section 7(f)(3), or by reason of the issuance of Common Stock for
property or services. Whenever the conversion price is adjusted pursuant to
section 7(f) the Corporation shall (1) promptly place on file at its principal
office and at the office of each of its transfer agents for the Series C
Preferred Stock a statement signed by the Chairman of the Board, the President
or a Vice President of the Corporation and by its Treasurer or an Assistant
Treasurer showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the
conversion price after such adjustment, and shall make such statement available
for inspection by shareholders of the Corporation, and (2) cause a notice to be
published at least once in a newspaper printed in the English language and of
general circulation in the City of Erie, Pennsylvania, and in the Borough of
Manhattan, the City of New York, New York, stating that such adjustment has
been made and the adjusted conversion price.

        (h)  If the Corporation shall issue to the holders of its Common Stock
rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of its Common Stock or
any other security, or if the Corporation shall distribute to the holders of
its Common Stock any evidences of indebtedness or any other assets (excluding
dividends and distributions in cash), the Corporation shall mail to each holder
of record of a share or shares of Series C Preferred Stock, at his address as
it shall appear on the books of the Corporation, a notice stating the record
date fixed or to be fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock
of record entitled to such issuance or distribution. Such notice shall be
mailed at least 10 days before such record date. Failure to mail such notice or
any defect therein or failure of any addressee to receive it shall not affect
the validity of such issuance or distribution or any vote thereon.

        (i)  In case of any reclassification or change in the outstanding shares
of Common Stock of the Corporation (except a split or combination of shares) or
in case of any consolidation or merger to which the Corporation is a party
(except a merger in which the Corporation is the surviving corporation and
which does not result in any reclassification of or change in the outstanding
Common Stock of the Corporation except an increase in the number of outstanding
shares or a split or combination of shares) or in case of any sale or
conveyance to another corporation of all or substantially all of the property
of the Corporation, effective provision shall be made by the Corporation or by
the successor or purchasing corporation (1) that the holder of each share of
Series C Preferred Stock then outstanding shall thereafter have the right to
convert such share into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and
property receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger,
sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the
Corporation into which such share of Series C Preferred Stock might have been
converted immediately prior thereto, and (2) that there shall be subsequent
adjustments of the conversion price which shall be equivalent, as nearly as
practicable, to the adjustments provided for in section 7(f). The provisions of
this section 7(i) shall similarly apply to successive reclassification,
changes, consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

        (j)  Shares of Common Stock issued on conversion of shares of Series C
Preferred Stock shall be issued as fully paid shares and shall be
non-assessable by the Corporation. The Corporation shall at all times reserve

shall not be reissued.

<PAGE>   15
         RESOLVED, that a fourth series of Preferred Stock, par value $1.00, of
PNC Financial Corp ("Corporation") is hereby established and that the shares of
said series shall have, in addition to the preferences, qualifications, 
privileges, limitations, restrictions and special or relative rights in 
respect of Preferred Stock granted or created by law and by the Corporation's
Articles of Incorporation, the following preferences, qualifications, 
privileges, limitations, restrictions and special or relative rights which are 
hereby fixed and determined:

         1.  Designation. A series of Preferred Stock designated "$1.80
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, Series D" (herein called "Series D
Preferred Stock") is hereby established, consisting of 1,775,302* shares
subject to increase or decrease in the number of shares in accordance with law.

         2.  Rank. Series D Preferred Stock shall rank, as to dividends and
assets, equally with the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock
and the Series C Preferred Stock and every other share of capital stock from
time to time outstanding which is not Common Stock of the Corporation and which
is not specifically made senior or subordinate to the Series D Preferred Stock
as to dividends or assets.

         3.  Dividends. The dividend rate of shares of this series shall be
$1.80 per share per year, payable in equal quarterly installments on the first
day of each January, April, July and October. Dividends shall be cumulative
from the January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 next preceding the date of
issue of each share, unless the date of issue is a quarterly dividend payment
date or a date between the record date for the determination of holders of
record of Series D Preferred Stock entitled to receive a quarterly dividend and
the date of payment of such quarterly dividend, in either of which events such 
dividends shall be cumulative from such dividend payment date.

         4.  Liquidation. The amount payable upon shares of Series D Preferred
Stock in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation of the Corporation,
prior to any payment to the holders of Common Stock or of any class or series
of stock of the Corporation ranking as to assets subordinate to the Series D
Preferred Stock, shall be $20.00 per share plus an amount equal to accrued and
unpaid dividends thereon computed to the date on which payment thereof is made
available, whether or not earned or declared.

         5.  Redemption. Shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall be redeemable
at any time after [insert first day of the month following the fifth
anniversary of the Effective Date of the Merger] at $20.00 per share plus an
amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends thereon computed to the date fixed
for redemption, whether or not earned or declared.

         6.  Voting rights. Each holder of Series D Preferred Stock shall have
the right to a number of votes equal to the number of full shares of Common
Stock into which the share or shares of Series D Preferred Stock standing in
his name on the books of the Corporation are at the time convertible.

         7.  Conversion provisions. (a) Shares of Series D Preferred Stock may,
at the option of the holder, be converted into Common Stock of the Corporation
(as such stock may be constituted on the conversion date) at the conversion
price, determined as hereinafter provided, in effect at the time of conversion,
subject to adjustment as provided herein; provided that, as to any shares of
Series D Preferred Stock which shall have been called for redemption, the
conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on the date fixed for
redemption. The value of each share of Series D Preferred Stock for the
purpose of such conversion shall be $20.00. The price at which shares of
Common Stock of the Corporation shall be delivered upon conversion (herein
called the "conversion price") shall initially be $48.00 per share of Common
Stock of the Corporation.

         (b)  The holder of a share or shares of Series D Preferred Stock may
exercise the conversion right as to any thereof by delivering to the
Corporation, during regular business hours, at its principal office or at the
office of any of its transfer agents for the Series D Preferred Stock or at
such other place as may be designated by the Corporation, the certificate or
certificates for the shares to be converted, duly endorsed or assigned in blank
or to the Corporation (if required by it), accompanied by written notice
stating that the holder elects to convert such shares and stating the name or
names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for Common Stock
are

* This number shall be the number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock to be
  issued in connection with the Merger of Northeastern Bancorp, Inc. with and
  into PNC Financial Corp pursuant to the terms of a Plan of Merger by and
  between Northeastern Bancorp, Inc. and PNC Financial Corp dated as of August
  16, 1984.
  




                                       1

to be issued. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date
when such delivery is made, and such date is referred to herein as the
"conversion date". As promptly as practicable thereafter the Corporation shall
issue and deliver to or upon the written order of such holder, at such office
or other place designated by the Corporation, a certificate or certificates for
the number of full shares of Common Stock to which he is entitled and cash,
scrip certificate or other adjustment in respect of any fraction of a share as
provided in section 7(d) below. The person in whose name the certificate or
certificates for Common Stock are to be issued shall be deemed to have become a
holder of such Common Stock of record on the conversion date unless the
transfer books of the Corporation are closed on that date, in which event he
shall be deemed to have become a holder of such Common Stock of record on the
next succeeding date on which the transfer books are open, but the conversion
price shall be that in effect on the conversion date.

         (c)  No payment or adjustment shall be made for dividends accrued on
any shares of Series D Preferred Stock converted or for dividends on any shares
of Common Stock issuable on conversion.

         (d)  The Corporation shall not be required to issue any fraction of a
share upon conversion of any share or shares of Series D Preferred Stock. If
more than one share of Series D Preferred Stock shall be surrendered for
conversion at one time by the same holder, the number of full shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the
total number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock so surrendered. If any
fractional interest in a share of Common Stock would be deliverable upon
conversion, the Corporation shall make an adjustment therefor in cash unless
its Board of Directors shall have determined to adjust fractional interests by
issuance of scrip certificates or in some other manner. Adjustment in cash
shall be made on the basis of the current market value of one share of Common
Stock, which shall be taken to be the last reported sale price of the
Corporation's Common Stock on the principal stock exchange on which the Common
Stock is then listed (or if not so listed, on the over-the-counter market) for
the last business day before the conversion date or, if there was no reported
sale on that day, the last reported sales price on the first preceding day for
which such price is available.

         (e)  The issuance of Common Stock on conversion of Series D Preferred
Stock shall be without charge to the converting holder of Series D Preferred
Stock for any tax in respect of the issuance thereof, but the Corporation shall
not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer
involved in the issuance and delivery of shares in any name other than that of
the holder of record on the books of the Corporation of the shares of Series D
Preferred Stock converted, and the Corporation shall not be required to issue
or deliver any certificate for shares of Common Stock unless and until the
person requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the
amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the
Corporation that such tax has been paid.

         (f)  The conversion price provided in section 7(a) shall be subject to
the following adjustments, which shall be made to the nearest cent:

            (1)  If the Corporation shall pay to the holders of its Common
         Stock a dividend in shares of Common Stock, the conversion price in
         effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for the
         determination of the holders of Common Stock entitled to such dividend
         shall be proportionately decreased, effective at the opening of
         business on the next following full business day.

            (2)  If the Corporation shall split the outstanding shares of its
         Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine the
         outstanding shares into a smaller number, the conversion price in
         effect immediately prior to such action shall be proportionately
         decreased in the case of a split or increased in the case of a
         combination, effective at the opening of business on the full business
         day next following the day such action becomes effective.

            (3)  If the Corporation shall issue to the holders of its Common
         Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of its
         Common Stock at a price less than 90% of the Current Market Price (as
         defined below in this paragraph) of the Corporation's Common Stock at
         the record date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common
         Stock entitled to such rights or warrants, the conversion price in
         effect immediately prior to said record date shall be adjusted,
         effective at the opening of business on the next following full
         business day, to an amount determined by multiplying such conversion
         price by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of
         Common Stock of the Corporation outstanding immediately prior to said
         record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock of the
         Corporation which the aggregate subscription





                                       2

<PAGE>   17
         or purchase price of the total number of shares so offered would
         purchase at the Current Market Price of the Corporation's Common Stock
         at said record date and the denominator of which is said number of
         shares outstanding immediately prior to said record date plus the
         number of additional shares of its Common Stock offered for
         subscription or purchase. The term "Current Market Price" at said
         record date shall mean the average of the daily last reported sale
         prices per share of the Corporation's Common Stock on the principal
         stock exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed (or if not so
         listed, then on the over-the-counter market) during the 20 consecutive
         full business days commencing with the 30th full business day before
         said record date, provided that if there was no reported sale on any
         such day or days there shall be substituted the average of the closing
         bid and asked quotations on that day obtained from the market
         specialist assigned to the Corporation (or a market maker in the case
         of the over-the-counter market).

            4.  The Corporation may make such reductions in the conversion
         price, in addition to those required by the foregoing provisions, as
         it considers to be advisable in order that any event treated for
         federal income tax purposes as a dividend of stock or stock rights
         shall not be taxable to the recipients.

         (g)  No adjustment of the conversion price provided in section 7(a)
shall be made by reason of the issuance of Common Stock for cash except as
provided in section 7(f)(3), or by reason of the issuance of Common Stock for
property or services. Whenever the conversion price is adjusted pursuant to
section 7(f) the Corporation shall (1) promptly place on file at its principal
office and at the office of each of its transfer agents for the Series D
Preferred Stock a statement signed by the Chairman of the Board, the President
or a Vice President of the Corporation and by its Treasurer or an Assistant
Treasurer showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the
conversion price after such adjustment, and shall make such statement available
for inspection by shareholders of the Corporation, and (2) cause a notice to be
published at least once in a newspaper printed in the English language and of
general circulation in the City of Scranton, Pennsylvania, and in the Borough
of Manhattan, the City of New York, New York, stating that such adjustment has
been made and the adjusted conversion price.

         (h)  If the Corporation shall issue to the holders of its Common Stock
rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of its Common Stock or
any other security, or if the Corporation shall distribute to the holders of
its Common Stock any evidences of indebtedness or any other assets (excluding
dividends and distributions in cash), the Corporation shall mail to each holder
a record of a share or shares of Series D Preferred Stock, at his address as it
shall appear on the books of the Corporation, a notice stating the record date
fixed or to be fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock of
record entitled to such issuance or distribution. Such notice shall be mailed
at least 10 days before such record date. Failure to mail such notice or any
defect therein or failure of any addressee to receive it shall not affect the
validity of such issuance or distribution or any vote thereon.

         (i)  In case of any reclassification or change in the outstanding
shares of Common Stock of the Corporation (except a split or combination of
shares) or in case of any consolidation or merger to which the Corporation is a
party (except a merger in which the Corporation is the surviving corporation
and which does not result in any reclassification of or change in the
outstanding Common Stock of the Corporation except an increase in the number of
outstanding shares or a split or combination of shares) or in case of any sale
or conveyance to another corporation of all or substantially all of the
property of the Corporation, effective provision shall be made by the
Corporation or by the successor or purchasing corporation (1) that the holder
of each share of Series D Preferred Stock then outstanding shall thereafter
have the right to convert such share into the kind and amount of stock and
other securities and property receivable upon such reclassification, change,
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares
of Common Stock of the Corporation into which such share of Series D Preferred
Stock might have been converted immediately prior thereto, and (2) that there
shall be subsequent adjustments of the conversion price which shall be
equivalent, as nearly as practicable, to the adjustments provided for in
section 7(f). The provisions of this section 7(i) shall similarly apply to
successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations, mergers, sales or
conveyances.

         (j)  Shares of Common Stock issued on conversion of shares of Series D
Preferred Stock shall be issued as fully paid shares and shall be
non-assessable by the Corporation. The Corporation shall at all times reserve
and keep available for the purpose of effecting the conversion of Series D
Preferred Stock, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as
shall be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of
Series D Preferred Stock.

         (k)  Shares of Series D Preferred Stock converted as provided herein
shall not be reissued.

In 1993, the Corporation's strategic focus was on refining the line-of-business
organizational structure; strategic growth through acquisitions and continued
investment in targeted businesses; managing the revenue and expense
relationship associated with the Corporation's mature businesses; and marketing
the Corporation under a new unified identity with an emphasis on customer
satisfaction.
    The economy experienced strong growth during the fourth quarter of 1993,
following moderate growth for the first nine months.  One of the lowest
inflation levels in nearly two decades was experienced in 1993 and contributed
to continued low short-term interest rates and a decline in long-term interest
rates.
    Even though the economy did not gain significant momentum until the fourth
quarter, the Corporation's financial performance continued to improve. Net
interest income and noninterest income were higher, favorable asset quality
trends continued and noninterest expenses remained relatively flat.
    Net income for 1993 was $725.9 million or $3.04 per fully diluted common
share, compared with $426.9 million or $1.89 per share in 1992. Return on
assets and return on common shareholders' equity were 1.44 percent and 18.40
percent, respectively, in 1993. The corresponding 1992 returns were .95 percent
and 12.47 percent, respectively.
    Effective January 1, 1993, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," and
changed its accounting method for certain intangible assets. Such assets are
comprised primarily of purchased mortgage servicing rights. The cumulative
effect of these changes reduced net income by $9.0 million and $10.4 million,
respectively.
    The results for 1992 include the cumulative effect of adopting SFAS No.
106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions,"
which reduced net income by $102.5 million.
    Income before the cumulative effect of the changes in accounting principles
was $745.3 million, or $3.13 per share in 1993 compared with $529.4 million, or
$2.34 per share in 1992. Return on assets and return on common shareholders'
equity before the accounting changes were 1.48 percent and 18.89 percent,
respectively, in 1993 compared with 1.18 percent and 15.03 percent in 1992.
    Management expects improved economic conditions in 1994 characterized by a
modest increase in short- term interest rates and loan demand. Should economic
conditions deteriorate or differ from management's expectations, the
Corporation's financial performance may be adversely impacted.

MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

The Corporation continues to evaluate acquisition opportunities where
management believes strategic growth potential exists. Key elements of the
Corporation's acquisition process include a dedicated staff for evaluating and
directing acquisitions, special management teams comprised of line-of-business
managers to plan and execute due diligence activities and approval by a
committee of senior executive officers, as well as the board of directors.
    Various valuation and financial models are used to assess the impact of
potential acquisitions. These models are utilized in structuring the
transactions and in planning for post-merger market, operational and financial
integration. The post-merger plan includes actions to preserve or enhance the
underlying economics of the transaction and is refined as new information
becomes available. Subsequent to consummation, post-merger integration is
monitored to determine if objectives, both qualitative and quantitative, are
being achieved.
    On November 30, 1993, the Corporation consummated its acquisition of the
Sears Mortgage Banking Group

("Sears Mortgage"), which consisted of Sears Mortgage Corporation, Sears
Mortgage Securities Corporation and Sears Savings Bank. The purchase price was
$328 million in cash and is subject to certain post-closing adjustments. Upon
consummation, Sears Savings Bank was converted to a national banking
association and renamed PNC Mortgage Bank, National Association ("PNC
Mortgage"), and the other acquired entities became wholly-owned subsidiaries of
PNC Mortgage.
    With this acquisition, the Corporation added consumer assets of $7.6
billion; a mortgage servicing portfolio approximating $27 billion, including
$21 billion serviced for others; and a national residential mortgage production
network consisting of 117 locations in 33 states. This acquisition will
increase net interest income, noninterest income and the ratio of fee income to
total revenue in 1994. The overhead ratio will increase due to higher relative
operating expenses in the mortgage banking business. The net interest margin
will narrow further in 1994 due to the full period impact of the acquisition
and the maturity structure of the liabilities assumed relative to the assets
acquired.
    During 1993, the Corporation also acquired The Massachusetts Company,
Boston, Massachusetts and Gateway Fed Corporation, Cincinnati, Ohio for cash.
The aggregate purchase price was $107 million and the combined assets of these
companies totaled $1.4 billion at closing.
    On January 21, 1994, the Corporation consummated the acquisition of United
Federal Bancorp, Inc. ("United"), State College, Pennsylvania for $156 million
in cash. United's assets totaled $900 million at closing.
    In addition, the Corporation has a pending agreement to acquire First
Eastern Corp. ("First Eastern"), Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, which had total
assets of $2.0 billion at December 31, 1993. The transaction has an indicated
value of approximately $330 million and is subject to the approval of certain
regulatory agencies and First Eastern's shareholders. Closing is currently
anticipated in the second quarter of 1994.

NET INTEREST INCOME AND NET INTEREST MARGIN Net interest income is interest
income, dividends and fees on earning assets, less interest expense incurred
for funding sources used to support such assets. Earning assets primarily
include loans and securities.  Sources used to fund such assets include
deposits, borrowed funds and capital. Net interest margin is net interest
income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis as a percentage of average earning
assets.
    On a fully taxable-equivalent basis, net interest income for 1993 increased
$168.5 million, or 9.9 percent due to an increase in average earning assets.

    The net interest margin narrowed during the year due to the reduced benefit
of noninterest-bearing funds in the lower interest rate environment; the sale
of higher coupon mortgage-backed securities to reduce prepayment risk; the
issuance of longer-term liabilities to provide stability to funding costs; and
the impact of the Sears Mortgage acquisition. Partially offsetting these
factors was the impact of interest rate swaps, which were used to reduce
exposure to changes in interest rates.

</TABLE>

PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES The provision for credit losses for 1993 was $203.9
million compared with $323.5 million in 1992.  Continued improvement in
economic conditions combined with management's ongoing efforts to improve asset
quality resulted in lower nonperforming asset and charge-off levels, and a
higher reserve coverage of nonperforming loans. The continued improvement in
asset quality experienced over the past several years is expected to result in
a lower provision in 1994.

NONINTEREST INCOME Excluding net securities gains, total noninterest income
increased $64.3 million or 9.3 percent to $757.6 million in 1993. Net
securities gains totaled $187.7 million in 1993 compared with $193.5 million in
1992.
   New business derived from strong investment performance and new product
initiatives accounted for the increase in trust revenue. In 1992, gross revenue
from an index-oriented investment advisory company was reported as trust
income. In 1993, a portion of that company was sold and the Corporation's
remaining share of the entity's net income is included in the other noninterest
income category. Excluding the impact of this sale, trust revenue increased 7.9
percent. Trust assets totaled $114 billion at December 31, 1993 compared with
$101 billion a year ago. The Corporation exercised discretionary investment
authority over $33 billion of trust assets at December 31, 1993 compared with
$31 billion a year ago.
   Mutual fund accounting and administrative services fees increased $12.6
million or 26.6 percent to $60.0 million in 1993 as a result of new business.
This increase was partially offset by a decline in advisory fees derived from
the level of managed money market mutual fund assets. Various administrative
services are provided for mutual funds which totaled $79 billion at December
31, 1993, including $24 billion over which the Corporation exercised
discretionary investment authority. The comparable December 31, 1992 amounts
were $69 billion and $27 billion, respectively.
   Acquisitions, increased transaction volume related to new business and a
change in fee structures accounted for the growth in deposit account and
corporate services revenue. The Sears Mortgage acquisition accounted for the
increase in loan servicing revenue.
   Within other services revenue, mortgage origination, brokerage and loan
syndication fees increased $8.6 million, $7.3 million and $6.0 million,
respectively. The Sears Mortgage acquisition accounted for 55 percent of the
increase in mortgage origination fees.

NONINTEREST EXPENSES Staff expense increased 2.5 percent to $685.4 million.
Higher compensation expense resulted from adding employees in targeted
businesses, completing acquisitions, and merit pay increases. Despite the
significant employee additions related to acquisitions and targeted businesses,
average full-time equivalent employees only increased 4.8 percent in the
comparison to 18,000. This amount includes the one-month impact of the Sears
Mortgage acquisition, which was consummated on November 30, 1993 and added
approximately 3,300 employees.
   The decline in employee benefits expense was primarily due to lower
postretirement costs resulting from plan amendments.  Pension and incentive
savings plan costs were also lower. Pension expense is expected to
significantly increase in 1994 due to a change in the discount rate used to
compute the benefit obligation.

   Acquisitions accounted for half of the increase in net occupancy and
equipment expenses. The remainder of the increase was attributable to the full
year impact of the consolidation of three data centers into a newly-constructed
data processing and telecommunications center and the opening of full-service
regional banking centers.
   Other noninterest expense declined 5.6 percent in the comparison to $473.5
million. A decline of $76.6 million in net foreclosed asset expense was
partially offset by an increase in expenses related to acquisitions and the
amortization of purchased mortgage servicing rights resulting from higher
prepayment experience.

Line of Business Results

The management accounting process uses various methods of balance sheet and
income statement allocations, transfers and assignments to evaluate the
performance of various business units. Unlike financial accounting, there is no
comprehensive, authoritative body of guidance for management accounting
equivalent to generally accepted accounting principles. The following
information is based on management accounting practices which conform to and
support the management structure of the Corporation and is not necessarily
comparable with similar information for any other financial institution.
Designations, assignments, and allocations may change from time to time as
management accounting systems are enhanced or product lines change. During
1993, certain methodologies were changed and, accordingly, results for 1992 are
presented on a consistent basis.
   For management reporting purposes, the Corporation has designated four
distinct lines of business: Corporate Banking, Retail Banking, Investment
Management and Trust, and Investment Banking. Within these lines of business,
management categorizes its businesses based on their mature or growth nature.
The growth or targeted businesses include Cash Management, Mortgage Banking,

Funds and Securities Brokerage and Underwriting. Management believes these
targeted businesses have attractive growth potential and continues to make
significant investments in them. For the more mature business units, such as
Corporate Banking and Consumer Banking, the emphasis is on managing the revenue
and expense relationship to enhance profitability.
     The financial results presented in this section reflect each of these 
lines of business as if they operated on a stand-alone basis.  Securities and
borrowings have been assigned to the lines of business based on their net asset
or liability position. The remaining securities and borrowings emanating from
management of the Corporation's overall asset/liability position are included
in Portfolio Management.
     Net income contributed by the lines of business totaled $878.0 million in 
1993 compared with $683.1 million in 1992. These results exceeded reported
consolidated net income by $152.2 million and $256.1 million, respectively, due
to the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, the provision for
credit losses in excess of specific reserve allocations and certain unassigned
corporate expenses.
     Profit margin represents after-tax earnings expressed as a percentage of 
revenues. Revenues include net interest income on a fully-taxable equivalent
basis and noninterest income. The overhead ratio is the percentage of
noninterest expenses to revenues.
     Capital is assigned to each business unit based on management's assessment
of inherent risk. Equity levels at independent companies that provide products 
and services similar to those provided by the respective business unit are also
considered. Capital assignments are not equivalent to risk-based capital 
guidelines.

CORPORATE BANKING Corporate Banking provides financing, liquidity and cash
management, and financial services to businesses and government entities.
Corporate Banking includes: Large Corporate--customers having annual sales of
more than $250 million; and Middle Market--annual sales of $5 to $250 million,
including customers in certain specialized industries such as real estate,
communications, healthcare, natural resources and leasing.
     Average loan growth during 1993 was modest. However, lending activity
increased substantially during the fourth

quarter as a result of stronger economic growth. The increase in year-end
outstandings was primarily in money market and short-term working capital loans
that are typically repaid shortly after year end.
    During 1993, Corporate Banking benefited from a reduced provision for
credit losses, lower collection costs related to problem assets and increased
revenue from non-credit activities. Operating expenses did not increase from
the prior year.
    Approximately 50 percent of the increase in Middle Market earnings was
derived from real estate. This increase resulted from a reduction in the
provision for credit losses, lower net foreclosed asset costs and higher gains
on the disposition of real estate assets. Further reductions of nonperforming
real estate assets are expected in 1994 which may require a reduction in
overall reserve levels associated with problem real estate assets.
    The cash management business continued to grow as investments in technology
provided for expanded electronic processing capabilities and enhanced customer
service.

RETAIL BANKING Retail Banking provides lending, deposit, investment, payment
systems access, and other financial services to consumers and small businesses.
Retail Banking includes: Consumer Banking--all lending and deposit gathering
services provided to individuals and small businesses; and Mortgage
Banking--residential mortgage loans held in portfolio, and loan origination,
acquisition and servicing activities.
    Increased loans and deposits contributed to higher earnings in 1993.  The 
benefit provided to Consumer Banking for relatively low cost deposits also
increased in the comparison. Consumer Banking's average loans increased by 6
percent during 1993, primarily due to acquisitions completed in the second half 
of 1992.
    Asset quality improvement led to a decline in the provision for credit
losses. Operating expenses increased in 1993 due to acquisitions and system
conversion costs related to enhancing and standardizing the retail distribution
systems throughout the Corporation's markets.
    The decline in Mortgage Banking's earnings resulted from lower yields on 
loans and higher amortization of purchased mortgage servicing rights resulting
from loan prepayments. Nonrecurring gains realized from sales of mortgages in
1992 also negatively impacted the comparison.  These adverse impacts were
partially offset by an increase in average loan outstandings.
    The acquisition of Sears Mortgage significantly changes the magnitude
and characteristics of this business unit. Mortgage originations were $2.5
billion in 1993. On a combined basis, mortgage originations for 1993 would have
been $13 billion. At December 31, 1993, the mortgage servicing portfolio
totaled $36 billion, including $27 billion serviced for others.

INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AND TRUST INVESTMENT Management and Trust ("IM&T")
provides investment advice, asset management, and administrative and custodial
services to individuals, institutions and mutual funds. IM&T includes:
Trust--investment management and fiduciary services provided to individuals and
non-profit institutions, pension and employee benefit plans, and corporations
and Mutual Funds--products and services in support of mutual funds for other
banks, brokerage houses, insurance companies and mutual fund complexes,
including the PNC Family of Funds.
    Trust earnings increased 9.8 percent in the year-to-year comparison as a 
result of new business driven by strong investment performance and new product 
initiatives.
    Mutual Funds earnings declined by $4 million in 1993. Increased revenues
from higher levels of accounting and administrative services were offset by a
decline in advisory fees as the level of managed money market mutual fund
assets declined year to year. Management also continued to invest heavily in
this targeted business.

INVESTMENT BANKING Investment Banking includes the asset/liability management
function, as well as underwriting, brokerage and direct investment services.
Investment Banking includes: Portfolio Management--management of on- and
off-balance sheet positions; and Brokerage and Underwriting--equity
investments, corporate and public finance and brokerage services.
    Portfolio Management's earnings include the impact of securities gains and 
the interest rate spread on the securities portfolio not assigned to other lines
of business. Net securities gains were $188 million in 1993 and $194 million in
1992. During the last two years, gains have been significantly higher than
historical averages as certain mortgage-backed securities were sold in the
higher prepayment environment.  The year-to-year comparison benefited from
higher asset levels resulting from leveraging the Corporation's capital position
and a 24 percent reduction in operating expenses due to the continued   
centralization of the asset/liability management function.
    Fees from Brokerage and Underwriting increased 27 percent over the prior
year. This increase was offset by additional expenses for personnel and
marketing costs related to product distribution initiatives, as management
continued to aggressively invest in this targeted business.
    Earnings for 1993 from the Corporation's private equity investment
activities increased to $21 million compared with $9 million in 1992. At
December 31, 1993, the private equity investment portfolio totaled $160
million.

BALANCE SHEET REVIEW

Total assets increased approximately $10.7 billion in the year-to-year 
comparison primarily as a result of acquisitions.  
    During 1993, proceeds from sales, maturities and prepayments of securities 
were reinvested in shorter-term securities which management believes are less
susceptible to prepayment risk. As a result, the weighted-average expected
maturity of all securities was reduced to two years and 10 months at December
31, 1993 compared with three years and three months at December 31, 1992. In a
rising interest rate environment, management currently does not anticipate that
the expected maturity will increase significantly.

     Effective December 31, 1993, the Corporation adopted SFAS No. 115,
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." As a
result, $7.2 billion of investment securities were reclassified as available
for sale. SFAS No. 115 requires that the after-tax net unrealized gain or loss
on securities available for sale be reflected in shareholders' equity. At
December 31, 1993, such net unrealized gains totaled $88 million.
     Deposits increased primarily as a result of acquisitions. Notes and
debentures were higher in the comparison reflecting the Corporation's increased
use of bank notes.

RISK MANAGEMENT

In the normal course of business, the Corporation is subject to credit,
interest rate and liquidity risk. The Corporation's objective is to maximize
profitability while maintaining acceptable levels of risk.
     Credit risk represents the possibility that a customer may not perform in
accordance with contractual terms. Credit risk results from extending credit to
customers as well as entering into certain financial instrument transactions.
     Interest rate risk represents the impact of repricing frequencies for
assets, liabilities and off-balance-sheet positions. This risk includes
prepayment risk associated with certain assets (e.g., mortgage-backed
securities and consumer loans) and withdrawal characteristics of certain
funding sources (e.g., demand, money market and savings deposits). Prepayment
risk is defined as the receipt of assets in advance of expected repayments.
Liquidity risk represents the inability to generate cash or otherwise obtain
funds at reasonable rates to satisfy commitments to borrowers, as well as the
demands of depositors and debtholders.

CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION CREDIT risk is inherent in the
lending business. The Corporation seeks to manage credit risk through
diversification, utilizing exposure limits to any single industry or customer,
requiring collateral and selling participations to third parties. A certain
amount of diversification occurs as a result of the distinct customer segments
served by the Corporate Banking and Retail Banking lines of business.
     Credit Administration, which includes credit policy, loan review and loan
workout, manages and monitors credit risk by promulgating and enforcing uniform
credit polices and exercising centralized oversight, review and approval
procedures. Credit Policy, at the direction of the board of directors,
establishes uniform underwriting standards that set forth the criteria that
must be met in extending credit.
     To assist in the consistent application of underwriting standards, credit
officers work with lending officers in

evaluating the creditworthiness of borrowers and structuring transactions.
Credit decisions are made at the specific affiliate or market level. However,
credit requests that are above certain limits or that involve exceptions to
credit policies require additional corporate approvals.
    The Corporation uses a lender-initiated system of rating credits to provide
timely credit quality information to management. Lenders assign risk ratings at
inception with periodic updates thereafter. Loan review performs periodic
reviews to determine adherence with credit policies, the propriety of risk
ratings assigned to individual credits and the effectiveness of the credit
management process. Adversely rated credits are included on a watchlist and     
reviewed monthly.
    Total commercial outstandings and unfunded commitments increased $3.8
billion to $25.9 billion at December 31, 1993, reflecting the higher level of
lending activity during the fourth quarter which resulted primarily from
stronger economic growth. The increase in year-end outstandings was primarily
in money market and short-term working capital loans that are typically repaid
shortly after year-end.

CORPORATE FINANCIAL REVIEW 1993 VERSUS 1992                                 33


     Total consumer outstandings increased $575 million and residential
mortgages increased $4.8 billion as a result of the Sears Mortgage acquisition.
     Residential construction and development loans rely upon unit sales of
residential properties as the primary source of repayment. Medium-term
financings have remaining terms up to five years. This category includes
completed construction projects which are in the leasing phase, and
tenant-occupied commercial and residential real estate which are dependent upon
sale or permanent take-out for ultimate repayment of the loan. Medium-term
financings collateralized by projects where rental income exceeds debt service
and operating costs are classified as standing loans.
     Retail and office projects accounted for 32 percent and 25 percent,
respectively, of total real estate project exposure at December 31, 1993.
Multi-family and hotel/motel projects each accounted for 9 percent. No other
project type accounted for more than 7 percent. Projects in the Corporation's
primary markets, which include Delaware, Indiana, Kentucky, New Jersey, Ohio
and Pennsylvania, accounted for 68 percent of the total outstandings. The
southeast region of the United States accounted for 17 percent and no other
geographic region accounted for more than 5 percent.
     Highly leveraged transactions (HLTs) are included in various commercial
loan categories. Consistent with the federal bank regulators' uniform
definition, HLTs include financing transactions involving the buyout,
acquisition or recapitalization of an existing business and credits extended to
highly leveraged industries.
     At December 31, 1993, HLT outstandings and unfunded commitments totaled
$953 million and $186 million, respectively. The comparable December 31, 1992
amounts were $1.1 billion and $202 million, respectively. The communications,
manufacturing and retail/wholesale industries accounted for 73 percent, 13
percent and 12 percent, respectively, of total HLT exposure at December 31,
1993. HLT outstandings represented 2.9 percent of total loans at December 31,
1993 compared with 4.3 percent at December 31, 1992.  During 1993, $117 million
of loans and $35 million of unfunded commitments were no longer classified as
HLTs.
     At December 31, 1993, the Corporation had 60 customers with loans
designated as HLT. The ten largest HLT outstandings and unfunded commitments
totaled $485 million and $56 million, respectively, none of which were
classified as nonperforming. During 1993, the Corporation originated and/or
participated in $166 million of commitments to new HLT customers compared with
$155 million in 1992. HLT loan fees recognized in income during 1993 totaled
$4.4 million and deferred HLT loan fees totaled $4.9 million at December 31,
1993. The yield on the HLT portfolio, including loans classified as
nonperforming, was 6.1 percent during 1993.

RISK ELEMENTS During 1993, asset quality continued to improve. Assuming modest
economic growth and excluding the impact of acquisitions, management
anticipates the favorable trends will continue during 1994.
     At December 31, 1993, $102 million of nonperforming loans were current as
to principal and interest compared with $144 million at December 31, 1992.
Nonperforming HLT loans totaled $25 million at December 31, 1993, compared with
$41 million a year ago.

     At December 31, 1993, office, retail, land and multi-family projects
accounted for 70 percent of total nonperforming real estate project assets. The
Corporation's primary markets accounted for 57 percent and the southeast region
of the United States 31 percent of the total.
     Accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more as to the payment of
principal or interest totaled $135 million at December 31, 1993, compared with
$192 million at December 31, 1992. Residential mortgage and other consumer
loans of $116 million were included in the total at December 31, 1993, compared
with $123 million at the prior year end.
     Loans not included in the past due, nonaccrual or restructured categories,
but where known information about possible credit problems causes management to
be uncertain as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with the present loan
repayment terms over the next six months totaled $121 million at December 31,
1993, all of which were current as to principal and interest payments.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES In determining the adequacy of the allowance for
credit losses, the Corporation allocates reserves to specific problem loans
based on a collectibility review and pools of watchlist and non-watchlist loans
for various credit risk factors. The allocations to pools of loans are
developed by risk rating and industry classification and are based on
management's judgment concerning historical loss trends and other relevant
factors. These factors may include, among others, local, regional, and national
economic conditions; portfolio concentrations; the level of industry
competition and consolidation; the impact of government regulation; and the
possibility of technological obsolescence.
     Residential mortgage and consumer loan allocations are based on historical
loss experience adjusted for portfolio activity and current trends.
     The allowance for credit losses was $972 million at December 31, 1993,
representing 2.92 percent of total loans compared with $897 million and 3.47
percent a year ago. As a percentage of period-end nonperforming loans, the
allowance for credit losses was 253 percent at December 31, 1993 compared with
162 percent at December 31, 1992.

    During 1993, $7 million of HLT credits were charged-off and $3 million
of previously charged-off HLT loans were recovered.  The comparable 1992
amounts were $46 million and $9 million, respectively.

ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT The primary objective of asset/liability management
is to provide maximum levels of net interest income while maintaining
acceptable levels of interest rate and liquidity risk and facilitating the
Corporation's funding needs. To achieve this objective, asset/liability
management uses a variety of investment alternatives, funding sources and
off-balance-sheet instruments in managing the overall interest rate risk
profile of the Corporation. ALCO policies include limits on the amounts of
various financial instruments and types of funding, and the level of interest
rate sensitivity. Asset/Liability management seeks to minimize the credit risk
associated with its activities. This is primarily  accomplished by entering
into transactions with only a selected number of high quality institutions,
establishing credit limits with counterparties and, where applicable, requiring
segregated collateral.
         Interest rate sensitivity refers to the impact of changes in interest
rates on net interest income. A dynamic income simulation model is used as the
primary mechanism in assessing that impact. Various assumptions related to
interest rates, mortgage prepayments, and loan and deposit growth are used in
the model.
         The simulation model projects an increase in net interest income in
management's most likely interest rate scenario over the next twelve months. At
December 31, 1993, this scenario assumes a gradual increase in interest rates
accompanied by a modest narrowing of the spread between the prime and federal
funds rates. In addition, management develops interest rate scenarios with
rates higher and lower than the most likely case based on rate movements that
could occur given current and projected economic conditions. As of December 31,
1993, the model projected net interest income would decrease 2.0 percent if the
Federal Funds rate and longer-term rates fell gradually by 100 and 150 basis
points, respectively, over the next year. Similarly, it projected a 1.8 percent
decrease if the Federal Funds rate and longer-term rates rose gradually by 250
and 230 basis points, respectively. These net interest income fluctuations from
the most likely scenario are well within management's policy limits. These
projections are based on current on- and off-balance-sheet positions and do not
reflect actions management could take to mitigate the impact of changes in
interest rates.

36                                  CORPORATE FINANCIAL REVIEW 1993 VERSUS 1992

    An interest rate sensitivity ("gap") analysis represents a point-in-time net
position of assets, liabilities and off-balance-sheet instruments subject to
repricing in specified time periods. The liability sensitivity of the
cumulative one-year gap position was 8.6 percent of total earning assets at
December 31, 1993. Gap analysis alone does not accurately measure the magnitude
of changes in net interest income since changes in interest rates do not affect
all categories of assets, liabilities, and off-balance-sheet    positions
equally or simultaneously.      
    The distribution in the Interest Rate Sensitivity table is based on a
combination of maturities, call provisions, repricing frequencies, prepayment
patterns and historical experience. Variable rate assets and liabilities are
distributed based on the repricing frequency of the instrument.
    The Corporation enters into interest rate swaps to alter the maturity
and repricing structure of the balance sheet ("hedge swaps") and as an
intermediary for customers ("customer swaps"). At December 31, 1993 hedge swaps
and customer swaps accounted for 83 percent and 3 percent, respectively, of the
total notional amount of all interest rate swap, futures, forward and written
option contracts.
    The notional amount of hedge and customer swaps totaled $11.8 billion
and $490 million, respectively, at December 31, 1993.  The corresponding
December 31, 1992 amounts were $7.7 billion and $520 million, respectively. At
December 31, 1993, credit risk related to all swaps totaled approximately $109
million with 92 percent collateralized by U.S. Government and agency
securities.
    The majority of hedge swaps are indexed amortizing interest rate swaps
where the Corporation receives payments based on fixed interest rates and makes
payments based on a floating money market rate. Index swaps have remaining
expected maturities that range from six months to two and one half years. If
interest rates rise above a contractually specified level, the maturities of
the index swaps will be extended. However, in management's current most likely
interest rate scenario, these maturities will not extend significantly.
    During 1993, hedge swaps benefited net interest income by $203.3 million
compared with $98.6 million in the corresponding 1992 period. At December 31,
1993, net deferred gains on terminated interest rate swaps totaled $22 million,
which is being amortized over various remaining periods up to two years.
    Because the Corporation has an aggregate receive-fixed/pay-variable
interest rate swap position, an increase in interest rates would reduce the
benefit provided by such swaps. However, management would expect several
factors to partially or entirely mitigate a decline in the benefit provided by
such swaps. As interest rates increase, the Corporation will derive a greater
benefit from existing long-term liabilities and noninterest-bearing sources of
funds. Also, an increase in interest rates would likely be associated with
higher levels of economic activity, providing opportunities for loan growth and
higher fee income.

LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT Liquidity represents an institution's ability to generate
cash or otherwise obtain funds at reasonable rates to satisfy commitments to
borrowers as well as the demands of depositors and debtholders. Liquidity is
managed through the coordination of the relative maturities of assets,
liabilities and off-balance-sheet positions and is enhanced by the ability to
raise funds in capital markets.
    Liquid assets consist of cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and
resale agreements, interest-earning deposits with banks, trading account
securities and securities available for sale. At December 31, 1993, such assets
totaled $14.1 billion.  Liquidity is also provided by securities that may be
sold under agreements to repurchase, which totaled $8.2 billion at December 31,
1993. In addition, certain bank affiliates joined the Federal Home Loan Bank
System in 1993.

         Brokered deposits are included in the certificates of deposit of
$100,000 or more and other time categories. Such amounts totaled $4.1 billion
at December 31, 1993 compared with $2.3 billion at December 31, 1992. Retail
brokered deposits are issued or participated-out by brokers in denominations of
$100,000 or less and are fully insured. Such deposits represented 63.7 percent
of the total at December 31, 1993 and 13.1 percent a year ago. The increase
relates entirely to retail brokered deposits assumed in the Sears Mortgage
acquisition. These deposits are expected to decline in future periods as they
mature and alternative funding sources are employed.
         Liquidity for the parent company and its nonbank affiliates is
generated through the issuance of securities in public or private markets,
lines of credit and dividends from subsidiaries. Under effective shelf
registration statements at December 31, 1993, the Corporation has available
$250 million of debt, $300 million of preferred stock and $550 million of
securities that may be issued as either debt or preferred stock. Additionally,
the Corporation has a $150 million unused committed line of credit. Funds
obtained from any of these sources can be used for both bank and nonbank
activities. In addition to current parent company funds, the funding for
pending acquisitions may include the issuance of instruments that qualify as
regulatory capital such as preferred stock or subordinated debt.

CAPITAL

The current economic and regulatory environment has placed an increased
emphasis on capital strength. Acquisition capability, funding alternatives, new
business activities, deposit insurance costs and the level and nature of
expanded regulatory oversight depend in part on capital adequacy.

         The minimum regulatory capital ratios are 4.00 percent for Tier I,
8.00 percent for total risk-based and 3.00 percent for leverage. However,
regulators may require higher capital levels when a bank's particular
circumstances warrant.
         Capital ratios are expected to decline somewhat in 1994 as a result of
including the Sears Mortgage assets for a full reporting period and
consummating pending acquisitions.

MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL
REPORTING INTERNAL CONTROL STRUCTURE

PNC Bank Corp. is responsible for the preparation, integrity and fair
presentation of its published financial statements. The consolidated financial
statements included in this annual report have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and, as such, include judgments and
estimates of management. PNC Bank Corp. also prepared the other information
included in the annual report and is responsible for its accuracy and
consistency with the consolidated financial statements.
         Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an
effective internal control structure over financial reporting. The internal
control system is augmented by written policies and procedures and by audits
performed by an internal audit staff which reports to the Audit Committee of
the Board of Directors. Internal auditors monitor the operation of the internal
control system and report findings to management and the Audit Committee, and
corrective actions are taken to address identified control deficiencies and
other opportunities for improving the system. The Audit Committee, composed
solely of outside directors, provides oversight to the financial reporting
process.
         There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of
internal control, including the possibility of human error and the
circumvention or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even an effective
internal control system can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to
financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the
effectiveness of an internal control system may vary over time.
         Management assessed PNC Bank Corp.'s internal control structure over
financial reporting as of December 31, 1993. This assessment was based on
criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in
"Internal Control- Integrated Framework" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management
believes that PNC Bank Corp. maintained an effective internal control system
over financial reporting as of December 31, 1993.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG,
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Shareholders and Board of Directors

PNC Bank Corp.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of PNC Bank Corp.
and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related consolidated
statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993. These financial
statements are the responsibility of PNC Bank Corp.'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 PNC
Bank Corp. and subsidiaries at December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the consolidated
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
         As discussed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, in
1993 PNC Bank Corp. changed its method of accounting for certain investments in
debt and equity securities, income taxes, and intangible assets, and in 1992
changed its method of accounting for postretirement benefits.

                                                           /s/ ERNST & YOUNG

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BUSINESS PNC Bank Corp. provides a full range of banking and related services
through its subsidiaries to individual and corporate customers and is subject
to intense competition from other financial services companies with respect to
these services and customers. PNC Bank Corp. is also subject to the regulations
of certain federal and state agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by
such regulatory authorities.

BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of PNC Bank Corp. and its subsidiaries ("Corporation"),
substantially all of which are wholly-owned. Such statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated
financial statements.
    In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required 
to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from such estimates.

RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to
conform to reporting classifications utilized for the current reporting period.
These reclassifications did not impact the Corporation's financial condition or
results of operations.

SECURITIES Effective December 31, 1993, the Corporation adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." Securities are classified as
investments and carried at amortized cost if management has the positive intent
and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Securities purchased with the
intention of recognizing short-term profits are placed in the trading account
and are carried at market value. Securities not classified as investment or
trading are designated securities available for sale and carried at fair value
with unrealized gains and losses reflected in shareholders' equity. Prior to
the adoption of SFAS No. 115, securities available for sale were carried at the
lower of cost or fair value.
    Gains and losses on sales of securities are generally computed on a 
specific security basis.

LOANS HELD FOR SALE Loans held for sale primarily consist of residential
mortgages and are carried at the lower of cost or aggregate market value. Gains
and losses on these loans are included in other noninterest income.

INTEREST RATE SWAPS, FINANCIAL FUTURES, FORWARDS AND OPTIONS Interest rate
swaps, financial futures, forwards and options, except those designated as
hedges, are valued at market, with realized and unrealized gains and losses
included in trading account profits.  Fees related to interest rate swap
agreements entered into for customers are recognized in income over the term of
the swap.
    To qualify for hedge accounting treatment, the hedging instrument must be 
associated with specific interest-bearing assets or liabilities, be designated
and effective as a hedge and reduce exposure to interest rate risk. Interest
accruals on interest rate swaps designated as hedges are recognized as
adjustments to interest income or interest expense related to the hedged asset
or liability. Gains and losses on financial futures, forwards and options
designated as hedges are deferred and amortized over the remaining life of the  
hedged transaction.

LOANS Interest income with respect to loans is accrued on the principal amount
outstanding, except for lease financing income and interest on certain consumer
loans which are recognized over their respective terms using methods which
approximate level yields.  Significant loan fees are deferred and accreted to
income over the respective lives of the loans.

NONPERFORMING ASSETS Nonperforming assets are comprised of nonaccrual and
restructured loans and foreclosed assets. Generally, a loan is classified as
nonaccrual and the accrual of interest on such loan is discontinued when it is
determined that the collection of interest or principal is doubtful, or when a
default of interest or principal has existed for 90 days or more, unless such
loan is well secured and in the process of collection. When the accrual of
interest is discontinued, unpaid interest credited to income in the current
year is reversed and unpaid interest accrued in prior years is charged against
the allowance for credit losses. A loan is categorized as restructured if the
original interest rate on such loan, repayment terms, or both, are restructured
due to a deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower and it was
not previously classified as nonaccrual. Nonperforming loans are generally not
returned to performing status until the obligation is brought current, has
performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of
time and the ultimate collectibility of the total contractual principal and
interest is no longer in doubt.
         Foreclosed assets are comprised of property acquired through a
foreclosure proceeding or acceptance of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and loans
classified as in-substance foreclosure. A loan is classified as in-substance
foreclosure when the borrower is perceived to have little or no equity in the
collateral and the Corporation can reasonably anticipate proceeds for repayment
only from the operation or sale of the collateral. Foreclosed assets are
recorded at the lower of the related loan balance or market value of the
collateral less estimated disposition costs at the date acquired. Subsequently,
foreclosed assets are valued at the lower of the amount recorded at the date
acquired or the then current market value less estimated disposition costs. Any
gains or losses realized upon disposition of the property are reflected in
income. Market values are estimated primarily based upon appraisals.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES The allowance for credit losses is established
through provisions for credit losses charged against income. Loans deemed to be
uncollectible are charged against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries,
if any, are credited to the allowance account.
         The allowance is maintained at a level believed adequate by management
to absorb estimated potential credit losses.  Management's determination of the
adequacy of the allowance is based on periodic evaluations of the credit
portfolio considering past experience, current economic conditions, composition
of the credit portfolio and other relevant factors. This evaluation is
inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible
to significant change.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION Depreciation and amortization of premises and
equipment are principally computed by the straight-line method over their
estimated useful lives for financial reporting purposes and by accelerated
methods for federal income tax purposes. Leasehold improvements are amortized
over their estimated useful lives or their respective lease terms, whichever is
shorter.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS Effective January 1, 1993, the Corporation changed its method
of accounting for certain intangible assets, consisting primarily of purchased
mortgage servicing rights. Such assets are accounted for at the lower of
amortized cost or the estimated value of the discounted future net revenues on
a disaggregated basis. Previously, future net revenues were not discounted for
this purpose. The cumulative effect of the change decreased net income by $10.4
million.
         Intangible assets, which are included in other assets, are amortized
using accelerated and straight-line methods over their respective estimated
useful lives. Goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over periods
ranging from 15 to 25 years.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS                                    45

INCOME TAXES Effective January 1, 1993, the Corporation adopted SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes." SFAS No. 109 requires the use of the liability
method to account for deferred income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax
assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial
reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the
enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are
expected to reverse. Previously, deferred income taxes were accounted for using
the deferred method.
   As permitted by SFAS No. 109, the Corporation elected not to restate the
financial statements of any prior periods. The cumulative effect of the change
decreased net income by $9.0 million.

TREASURY STOCK The purchase of the Corporation's common stock is recorded at
cost. At the date of subsequent reissue, the treasury stock account is reduced
by the cost of such stock on the first-in-first-out basis.

EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE Primary earnings per common share is calculated by
dividing net income adjusted for preferred stock dividends declared by the sum
of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and the
number of shares of common stock which would be issued assuming the exercise of
stock options during each period.
   Fully diluted earnings per common share is based on net income adjusted for
interest expense, net of tax, on outstanding convertible debentures and
dividends declared on nonconvertible preferred stock. The weighted average
number of shares of common stock outstanding is increased by the assumed
conversion of outstanding convertible preferred stock and convertible
debentures from the beginning of the year or date of issuance, if later, and
the number of shares of common stock which would be issued assuming the
exercise of stock options. Such adjustments to net income and the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding are made only when such
adjustments dilute earnings per common share.
        
MERGER AGREEMENT

During 1993, the Corporation entered into an agreement to acquire for cash
First Eastern Corp. ("First Eastern"), Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, which
reported total assets of $2.0 billion at December 31, 1993. The transaction has
an indicated value of $330 million and is subject to the approval of certain
regulatory agencies and First Eastern's shareholders. Closing is currently
anticipated in the second quarter of 1994.

SEARS MORTGAGE ACQUISITION

On November 30, 1993, the Corporation consummated its acquisition of the Sears
Mortgage Banking Group ("Sears Mortgage"), which consisted of Sears Mortgage
Corporation, Sears Mortgage Securities Corporation and Sears Savings Bank. The
transaction was recorded under the purchase method of accounting and the total
assets of Sears Mortgage were $7.6 billion at closing. The purchase price was
$328 million in cash and is subject to certain post-closing adjustments. Upon
consummation, Sears Savings Bank was converted to a national banking
association and renamed PNCMortgage Bank, National Association ("PNC
Mortgage"), and the other acquired entities became wholly-owned subsidiaries of
PNC Mortgage.
   The following table presents unaudited pro forma financial information
for the Corporation and Sears Mortgage for the years ended December 31, 1993
and 1992, as if the acquisition had been effective on January 1, 1993, and
January 1, 1992, respectively.

   The 1993 information includes the Corporation's historical amounts for the
year ended December 31, 1993, and Sears Mortgage's unaudited historical amounts
for the eleven-months ended November 30, 1993. The 1992 information includes
both entities' historical amounts for the year ended December 31, 1992. These
historical amounts have been adjusted for the amortization of purchase
accounting adjustments. The pro forma financial information may not be
indicative of the results of operations that actually would have occurred, or
that may be attained in the future, had the Corporation completed its
acquisition of Sears Mortgage on the dates indicated. The purchase price paid
at closing is subject to certain post-closing adjustments, which are not
expected to have a material impact on the pro forma financial information.
        
OTHER ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

During 1993, the Corporation acquired for cash the Massachusetts Company,
Boston, Massachusetts and Gateway Fed Corporation, Cincinnati, Ohio. The
aggregate purchase price was $107 million and the combined assets of these
companies totaled $1.4 billion at closing. These transactions were recorded
under the purchase method of accounting.
   On January 21, 1994, the Corporation consummated the acquisition of United
Federal Bancorp, Inc. ("United"), State College, Pennsylvania, for $156 million
in cash. The transaction was recorded under the purchase method of accounting
and United's assets totaled $900 million at closing.    
   During 1992, the Corporation completed the acquisitions of Pro Group, Inc.,
Bradford, Pennsylvania, The First National Pennsylvania Corporation ("FNP") in
Erie, Pennsylvania, Sunrise Bancorp, Inc. ("Sunrise"), Fort Mitchell, Kentucky,
CCNB Corporation ("CCNB"), Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, and Flagship Financial
Corp. ("Flagship"), Jenkintown, Pennsylvania. These institutions contributed
approximately $2.6 billion in assets on a net basis. Under the terms of the
various agreements, the Corporation issued approximately 13.3 million shares of
common stock and paid cash of approximately $45 million. The Sunrise and
Flagship acquisitions were recorded under the purchase method of accounting.
The Pro Group, Inc., FNP and CCNB acquisitions were accounted for on a
pooling-of-interests basis, however, due to immateriality, prior period
financial information has not been restated.    
   During 1991, the Corporation acquired approximately $2.7 billion of selected
assets and deposit liabilities of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of
Pittsburgh and Future Federal Savings Bank of Louisville, Kentucky from the
Resolution Trust Corporation. Additionally, the Corporation entered into a
credit card processing agreement in which a substantial portion of the merchant
processing portfolio and servicing rights were sold. This transaction resulted
in a pre-tax gain of $13.3 million. During 1991, the Corporation completed the
sale of four Ohio bank affiliates which resulted in a pre-tax gain of $79.3
million. The banks had total assets and deposits of $2.0 billion and $1.6
billion, respectively.
        
CASH FLOWS

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Corporation defines cash and
due from banks as cash and cash equivalents. During 1993, 1992 and 1991,
interest paid on deposits and other contractual debt obligations was $1.3
billion, $1.6 billion and $2.3 billion, respectively, and income taxes paid
were $396.0 million, $257.3 million and $113.4 million, respectively. During
both 1993 and 1992, $7.2 billion, of investment securities were transferred to
available for sale. Loans transferred to foreclosed assets aggregated $24.5
million in 1993, $89.2 million in 1992 and $207.3 million in 1991.

SECURITIES

Effective December 31, 1993, the Corporation adopted SFAS No. 115, "Accounting
for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." Under the new standard,
investment securities are carried at amortized cost and securities available
for sale are carried at fair value with the after-tax net unrealized gain or
loss recorded in shareholders' equity. As a result of adopting SFAS No. 115,
$7.2 billion of investment securities were reclassified as available for sale.
At December 31, 1993, after-tax net unrealized gains totaled $88 million.

   At December 31, 1993, $1.5 billion of loans were pledged to secure
borrowings and for other purposes.  
   Certain directors and executive officers of the Corporation and its 
significant subsidiaries as well as certain affiliates of these directors and 
officers were customers of and had loans with subsidiary banks in the ordinary 
course of business. All such loans were on substantially the same terms, 
including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for 
comparable transactions with other customers and did not involve more than a 
normal risk of collectibility. The aggregate dollar amount of these loans was
$313 million at December 31, 1993, and $216 million at December 31, 1992.
During 1993, new loans of $262 million were funded and repayments totaled $165
million.

   In May 1993, SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan," was issued with adoption required in 1995. Management does not expect
the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on the Corporation's
financial position or results of operations.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET
RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

In the normal course of business the Corporation is party to financial
instrument transactions with off-balance-sheet risk. These transactions enable
customers to meet their financing needs and enable the Corporation to reduce
exposure to market risk. Financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk
involve, to varying degrees, credit and market risk in excess of the amount
recognized in the balance sheet. Such instruments are subject to the
Corporation's credit policies and procedures. The Corporation attempts to limit
the potential exposure of off-balance-sheet transactions through 
diversification, utilizing exposure limits to any single industry or customer
and selling participations to third parties. Collateral requirements and
covenants, if necessary, are established based on management's credit
assessment of the customer.

COMMITMENTS TO EXTEND CREDIT AND LOANS Commitments to extend credit represent
contractual obligations to lend funds. Funding of approximately 34 percent of
such commitments at December 31, 1993 is subject to the financial condition of
the customer. Commitments to extend credit generally require payment of a fee
by the customer and contain fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses
and specified interest rates. At December 31, 1993 and 1992, commitments to
extend credit included $1.8 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, of
participations and syndications which are primarily to financial institutions.
   The Corporation has purchased participations and originated loans in
connection with highly leveraged transactions ("HLT") which are included in the
commercial portfolio. HLT loans and unfunded commitments at December 31, 1993
and 1992, totaled $1.1 billion and
<PAGE>   28
50                                    NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


$1.3 billion, respectively. Communications was the largest category within
total HLT credit facilities at both year ends.  
    Loan outstandings and related unfunded commitments are primarily 
concentrated within affiliate markets which encompass Delaware, Indiana,
Kentucky, New Jersey, Ohio and Pennsylvania. No specific industry concentration
exceeded 10 percent of total outstandings and unfunded commitments.
        
LETTERS OF CREDIT STANDBY letters of credit commit the Corporation to make
payments on behalf of customers when certain specified future events occur.
Such instruments are typically issued to support obligations such as industrial
revenue bonds, commercial paper, and bid or performance related contracts.
Commercial letters of credit are used to facilitate customer trade
transactions. At year-end 1993, the largest industry concentration within
standby letters of credit was healthcare, which accounted for approximately 18
percent of the total. At December 31, 1993, maturities for standby letters of
credit ranged from 1994 to 2003. At December 31, 1993 and 1992, standby letters
of credit included $758 million and $748 million, respectively, of
participations and syndications to others, and $3.2 billion and $2.9 billion,
respectively, were issued to support medium- and long-term debt.

INTEREST RATE SWAPS Interest rate swaps are agreements between two parties to
exchange periodic interest payments that are calculated on a notional principal
amount. The Corporation enters into interest rate swaps to alter the maturity
and repricing structure of the balance sheet ("hedge swaps") and as an
intermediary for customers ("customer swaps"). Only the interest payments are
exchanged, therefore, cash requirements and exposure to credit risk are
significantly less than the notional principal amount.
    The Corporation seeks to minimize the credit risk associated with its 
interest rate swap activities. This is primarily accomplished by entering into
transactions with only a selected number of high quality institutions,
establishing credit limits with counterparties and, where applicable, requiring
segregated collateral in the form of U.S. Government and agency securities. At
December 31, 1993, credit exposure related to all swaps totaled $109 million
and was 92 percent collateralized.

      The majority of hedge swaps are indexed amortizing interest rate swaps
where the Corporation receives payments based on fixed interest rates and makes
payments based on a floating money market rate. Index swaps have remaining
expected maturities that range from six months to two and one half years. If
interest rates rise above a contractually specified level, the maturities of
the index swaps will be extended.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS Foreign currency exchange contracts involve
the trading of one currency for another at specified rates and dates and are
used to facilitate the management of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
Such contracts are entered into on behalf of customers and are utilized by the
Corporation to hedge against risk positions associated with asset/liability
management and trading activities.

FUTURES AND FORWARDS CONTRACTS Futures contracts represent commitments to
purchase or sell securities and other money market instruments at a specified
date and price. Futures contract terms are standardized and are traded on
organized exchanges. The exchange assumes the risk that a counterparty will not
honor the contract and, therefore, generally requires margin payments to
minimize such risk. Forward contracts are traded in over-the-counter markets
and do not have standardized terms. Futures and forward contracts are utilized
by the Corporation to hedge against risk positions associated with
asset/liability management and trading activities. Counterparties to the
Corporation's futures and forward contracts are primarily U.S. Government
agencies and brokers and dealers in securities.

OPTION CONTRACTS Option contracts represent rights to purchase or sell
securities or other money market instruments at a specified date and price at
the option of the holder. The writer of the option contract receives a fee that
conveys to the holder the right to put or call the underlying financial
instrument. Option contracts are traded on organized exchanges or customized to
meet the specialized needs of the counterparty.

to satisfy the additional debt service cost. Benefit expense is recognized
based on a percentage of total debt service for the current year to total debt
service over the life of the borrowing.  This percentage is applied to the
original principal balance to calculate the benefit expense, which totaled $2.5
million in 1993, $8.0 million in 1992 and $11.4 million in 1991.
   The Corporation sponsors a funded defined benefit pension plan covering
substantially all employees. The plan provides pension benefits that are based
on the average base salary for specified years of service prior to retirement.
Pension contributions are made to the extent deductible under existing federal
tax regulations. The Corporation also has an unfunded non-qualified
supplemental defined benefit retirement plan covering certain employees, as
defined in the plan.
   The following table sets forth the estimated funded status of defined
benefit plans:

   The Corporation has an employee stock purchase plan which covers a maximum
of five million shares of common stock of which 1,871,697 were available to be
issued. Persons who have been continuously employed for at least one year are
eligible to participate. Offering periods cover six months beginning June 1 and
December 1 of each year. Common stock is purchased by participants at 85
percent of the lesser of fair market value on the first or last day of each
offering period. During 1993, 276,517 shares were issued to participants at
prices of $24.12 and $25.18 per share; 291,580 shares were issued in 1992 at
prices of $17.80 and $21.68 per share; and 416,548 shares were issued in 1991
at prices of $9.41 and $15.62 per share. No charge to earnings is required with
respect to such plan.
   In addition to providing pension benefits, the Corporation provides
certain health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees.
Effective January 1, 1992, the Corporation adopted SFAS No. 106, "Employers'
Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions," which requires the
accrual of the expected cost of providing postretirement benefits to employees
during the years that employees render service. The adoption of SFAS No. 106
resulted in a charge of $102.5 million.
   A reconciliation of the accrued postretirement benefit obligation is as

   The health care cost trend rate declines until it stabilizes at 5.0

would result in an increase of $113,000 and $470,000 in the service cost and
interest cost components, respectively, and a $7.7 million increase in the
accumulated postretirement benefit obligation.

   Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 106, the Corporation recognized benefit
expense related to postretirement benefits on a cash basis. The expense of
providing such benefits was $4.1 million in 1991.
   Effective January 1, 1993, the Corporation's postretirement benefit plan
was amended to provide benefits limited to a fixed amount based on the
employee's age and years of service. The plan amendments resulted in a $63.8
million reduction to the accrued postretirement benefit obligation. In
accordance with SFAS No. 106, this reduction is amortized over the average
service life of covered employees, which is currently 15 years.
   In November 1992, SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment
Benefits," was issued with adoption required in 1994.  The impact of this
standard is not material to the Corporation's financial position or results of
operations.
   In November 1993, Statement of Position No. 93-6, "Employers' Accounting
for Employee Stock Option Plans," was issued with adoption required in 1994.
Management does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material
impact on the Corporation's financial position or results of operations.

STOCK OPTION PLANS

The Corporation has a senior executive long-term incentive award plan
("Incentive Plan") that provides for the granting of incentive stock options,
nonqualified options, stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), performance units,
and incentive shares. In any given year the number of shares of common stock
available for grants under the Incentive Plan may range from 1.5 percent to 3
percent of total issued shares of common stock, determined at the end of the
preceding calendar year.
   Options are granted at exercise prices not less than the fair market value
of common stock on the date of grant. Such options may not be exercised for
twelve months after the date of grant. Payment of the option price may be in
cash or shares of common stock valued at fair market value on the exercise
date.
   The following table presents share data related to the Incentive Plan, a
similar predecessor plan and other plans assumed in certain mergers. In
accordance with the terms of plans assumed in certain mergers, option holders
receive upon exercise, common stock in accordance with the relevant exchange
ratio.

REGULATORY MATTERS

The Corporation is subject to the regulations of certain federal and state
agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by such regulatory authorities. At
any time, various bank and nonbank examinations are ongoing. Management
promptly responds to all findings of regulators. None of the Corporation's bank
and nonbank subsidiaries are subject to written regulatory agreements.
   The dividends that may be paid by subsidiary banks to the parent company
are subject to certain legal limitations. Without regulatory approval, the
amount available for payment of dividends by all subsidiary banks was $943
million at December 31, 1993.  Dividends also may be impacted by capital needs,
regulatory requirements and policies, and other factors as management deems
relevant.
   Under federal law, generally no bank subsidiary may extend credit to the
parent company or its nonbank subsidiaries on terms and under circumstances
which are not substantially the same as comparable extensions of credit to
nonaffiliates. No extension of credit may be made to the
<PAGE>   35
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS                                   57


parent company or a nonbank subsidiary which is in excess of 10 percent of the 
capital stock and surplus of such bank subsidiary or in excess of 20 percent of
the capital and surplus of such bank subsidiary as to aggregate extensions of 
credit to the parent company and its subsidiaries. In certain circumstances, 
federal regulatory authorities may impose more restrictive limitations. Such 
extensions of credit, with limited exceptions, must be fully collateralized. 
The maximum amount available under statutory limitations for transfer from 
subsidiary banks to the parent company in the form of loans and dividends 
approximated 32 percent of consolidated net assets at December 31, 1993.
   Federal Reserve Board regulations require depository institutions to
maintain cash reserves with the Federal Reserve Bank.  During 1993, subsidiary
banks maintained reserves which averaged $814 million.

LITIGATION

During 1993, the parties reached an agreement to settle a consolidated class
action against the Corporation and certain present and former
officer-directors, alleging purported violations of federal securities laws,
and a shareholders' derivative suit against such officer-directors, alleging
breach of fiduciary duty and waste of corporate assets. The settlement was
approved by the court and both actions were dismissed with prejudice. The cost
of settlement was covered by insurance and existing litigation reserves.
   In January 1992, a purported class action lawsuit was filed against
PNC National Bank ("PNCNB"), a national bank subsidiary of the Corporation
located in Wilmington, Delaware, alleging that PNCNB violated Pennsylvania
statues in connection with certain fees charged on credit cards issued by PNCNB
and seeking, among other things, unquantified compensatory and triple damages
and injunctive relief. PNCNB has filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings,
seeking dismissal of the suit. This case is one of several brought against a
number of banks, challenging whether a credit card issuing bank can impose
various types of fees allowed by the state where the issuer is located on
cardholders residing in other states that allegedly limit or prohibit those
fees.
   PNCNB is vigorously defending the lawsuit. The impact of the final
disposition of this case cannot be assessed at the present time.
   The Corporation, in the normal course of business, is subject to
various other pending and threatened lawsuits in which claims for monetary
damages are asserted. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, does
not anticipate that the ultimate aggregate liability, if any, arising out of
such other lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's
financial position.
   At the present time, management is not in a position to determine
whether any pending or threatened litigation will have a material adverse
effect on the Corporation's results of operations in any future reporting
period.

   Commercial paper issued by PNC Funding Corp. is guaranteed by the
parent company. During 1993, 1992 and 1991, the parent company received income
tax refunds of $2.7 million, $16.8 million and $7.1 million, respectively. Such
refunds represent the parent company's portion of consolidated income taxes.
During 1993, 1992 and 1991, the parent company paid interest on contractual
debt obligations of $4.9 million, $4.4 million and $7.9 million, respectively.


UNUSED LINES OF CREDIT

At December 31, 1993, the Corporation maintained a line of credit in the amount
of $150 million, none of which was drawn. This line is available for general
corporate purposes. The annual fee paid for the unused line is .25 percent.


FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires
disclosure of fair value information for financial instruments. SFAS No. 107
excludes certain assets such as real and personal property, leases, loan
customer relationships, deposit customer intangibles, retail branch networks,
fee-based businesses, trademarks and brand names. Accordingly, the aggregate of
fair value amounts presented does not attempt to capture and does not represent
the underlying value of the Corporation.
   SFAS No. 107 defines fair value as the estimated amount at which the
financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between
willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. However, it is not
management's intention to immediately dispose of a significant portion of such
financial instruments, and the unrealized gains or losses should not be
interpreted as a forecast of future earnings and cash flows.
   The fair value of securities is based primarily on quoted market
prices. For substantially all other financial instruments, fair values have
been estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, pricing models and other
valuation techniques. These derived fair values are subjective in nature,
involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore,
cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly
impact the derived fair value estimates.
   The following table represents the estimates of fair value of financial
instruments:

    The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating fair
value amounts for financial instruments:


GENERAL For short-term financial instruments realizable in three months or
less, the carrying amount reported in the balance sheet approximates fair
value. Unless otherwise stated, the rates used to discount cash flows are based
on market yield curves.
<PAGE>   38
60                                    NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


CASH AND SHORT-TERM ASSETS The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated
balance sheet for cash and short-term assets approximate those assets' fair
values primarily due to their short-term nature. For purposes of this
disclosure only, short-term assets include due from banks, interest-earning
deposits with banks, federal funds sold and resale agreements, trading account
securities, customers' acceptance liability and accrued interest receivable.
Trading account securities are recorded at market value, therefore, the
carrying amount is equal to fair value.

SECURITIES The fair value of investment securities and securities available for
sale are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market
prices are not available, fair value is estimated using the quoted market
prices of comparable instruments.

NET LOANS AND LOANS HELD FOR SALE For demand and variable rate commercial and
certain consumer loans that reprice quarterly, fair values are estimated by
reducing carrying amounts by estimated credit loss factors. For other
commercial loans, including nonaccrual loans, fair values are estimated using
discounted cash flow analyses, with cash flows reduced by estimated credit loss
factors and discount rates equal to rates currently charged by the Corporation
for similar loans. In the case of nonaccrual loans, scheduled cash flows do not
include interest payments.
   For automobile, home equity, student and credit card loans, fair values
are determined by using internal pricing models.  The models derive fair value
by incorporating assumptions about prepayments, credit losses and servicing
fees and costs and discounting the future net revenues at an appropriate risk
rate of return. For credit cards and revolving home equity loans, this fair
value does not include any amount for new loans or the related fees that will
be generated from the existing customer relationships. The fair value of
residential mortgages is estimated based on quoted market prices of similar
loans sold in conjunction with securitization transactions, adjusted for
differences in loan characteristics. Due to their short-term nature, the
carrying amount of loans held for sale approximates fair value.

DEPOSITS The carrying amounts for noninterest-bearing demand and
interest-bearing, money market and savings deposits approximate fair values.
For time deposits, fair values are based on the discounted value of scheduled
cash flows. The discount rates used vary by instrument and are based on dealer
quotes or rates currently offered for deposits with similar maturities.

SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased,
commercial paper, acceptances outstanding and accrued interest payable are
considered fair value because of their short-term nature. Repurchase agreements
and term federal funds purchased are valued using discounted cash flow
analyses.

NOTES AND DEBENTURES The fair value of variable-rate notes and debentures is
equivalent to carrying value. For fixed-rate notes and debentures, scheduled
cash flows are discounted using rates for similar debt with the same
maturities.

UNFUNDED LOAN COMMITMENTS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT Fair values for commitments to
extend credit and letters of credit are estimated based upon the amount of
deferred fees and the creditworthiness of the counterparties.

FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE, FINANCIAL FUTURES, FORWARDS AND OPTION CONTRACTS
These off-balance-sheet financial instruments are marked to market, therefore,
the carrying amount approximates fair value. Such amounts are immaterial at
December 31, 1993.

INTEREST RATE SWAPS The fair value of index interest rate swaps is based on
dealer quotes. The fair value of all other swaps is the discounted value of the
expected net cash flows. These fair values represent the estimated amounts that
the Corporation would receive or pay to terminate the contracts, taking into
account current interest rates

NONPERFORMING ASSETS

Generally, a loan is classified as "nonaccrual" when it is determined that the
collection of interest or principal is doubtful, or when a default of interest
or principal has existed for 90 days or more, unless such loan is well secured
and in the process of collection. When interest accrual is discontinued, unpaid
interest credited to income in the current year is reversed, and unpaid
interest accrued in prior years is charged to the allowance for credit losses.
    A loan is categorized as "restructured" if the original interest rate on 
such loan, repayment terms, or both were restructured due to a deterioration 
in the financial condition of the borrower.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

The allowance for credit losses is based on periodic evaluations of the loan
portfolio by management. These evaluations consider, among other factors,
historic losses within specific industries, current economic conditions, loan
portfolio trends, specific credit reviews and estimates based on subjective
factors.
    During 1993 and 1992, economic conditions improved, resulting in lower
charge-offs and provision for credit losses. During 1991 and 1990, weaker
economic conditions adversely impacted collateral valuations and affected some
borrowers ability to repay loans. These adverse conditions resulted in higher
provisions for credit losses. During 1989, additional provisions for credit
losses were taken LDC loans.

    During 1993, management revised its methodology for allocating the allowance
for credit losses. The revisions had the effect of reclassifying certain 
previously unallocated reserves to loan categories. For purposes of this
presentation, remaining unallocated reserves have been assigned to loan
categories based on the relative specific allocation amounts. Prior year
unallocated reserve amounts have been similarly assigned to loan categories.

BORROWED FUNDS

Federal funds purchased represent overnight borrowings. Repurchase agreements
generally have maturities of 18 months or less. At December 31, 1993, 1992 and
1991, $2.7 billion, $3.4 billion and $495 million, respectively, of repurchase
agreements had original maturities which exceeded one year. Commercial paper is
issued in maturities not to exceed nine months and is stated net of discount.
Other borrowed funds consist primarily of term federal funds purchased and U.S.
Treasury, tax and loan borrowings which are payable on demand.

TAXABLE-EQUIVALENT ADJUSTMENT

Interest income earned on certain loans, and obligations of states,
municipalities and other public entities is not subject to federal income tax.
In addition, certain interest expense incurred to fund these assets is not
deductible for federal income tax purposes.
    In order to make pre-tax income and resultant yields comparable to taxable
loans and investments, a taxable-equivalent adjustment, less the effect of
disallowed interest expense, is added equally to interest income and to income
tax expense, with no effect on after-tax income.
    The taxable-equivalent adjustment is shown in the table below based on a
federal income tax rate of 35 percent for 1993 and 34 percent for all other
years.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 1992 VERSUS 1991                         73


MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

During 1992, PNC Bank Corp. completed the acquisitions of Pro Group, Inc.,
Bradford, Pennsylvania; The First National Pennsylvania Corporation, Erie,
Pennsylvania; Sunrise Bancorp, Inc., Fort Mitchell, Kentucky; CCNB Corporation,
Camp Hill, Pennsylvania; and Flagship Financial Corp., Jenkintown,
Pennsylvania. These institutions added approximately $2.6 billion in assets.
Under the terms of the various agreements, PNC Bank issued approximately 13.3
million shares of common stock and paid cash of approximately $45 million.
     In December of 1992, PNC Bank Corp. entered into a joint venture in
automated teller machine ("ATM") and point-of-sale ("POS") transaction
processing services with three other financial institutions. The new company,
Electronic Payment Services, Inc. ("EPS"), is one of the largest processors of
ATM and POS transactions in the United States. PNC Bank contributed its ATM and
POS processing businesses and invested approximately $49 million in cash for 31
percent of EPS common stock.

COMMON STOCK SPLIT

On October 1, 1992, the Board of Directors approved a two-for-one split of the
common stock which was effected in the form of a 100 percent stock dividend.
Financial data has been restated for the impact of the two-for-one split of the
common stock.

INCOME STATEMENT REVIEW

Net income for 1992 was $426.9 million or $1.89 per common share on a fully
diluted basis, compared with $389.8 million or $1.94 in 1991. Return on assets
and return on common shareholders' equity were .95 percent and 12.47 percent,
respectively. This compares with .91 percent and 14.02 percent in 1991.
     The Corporation adopted SFAS No. 106 related to postretirement benefits in
1992. The adoption of SFAS No. 106 resulted in additional after-tax expense of
$111.3 million or $.49 per common share on a fully diluted basis, consisting of
a first quarter one-time charge of $102.5 million or $.45 per share and $2.2
million of additional operating expense in each quarter. Income before the
cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle was $529.4 million, or
$2.34 per common share on a fully diluted basis.  On this basis, return on
assets and return on common shareholders' equity were 1.18 percent and 15.03
percent, respectively.

NET INTEREST INCOME AND NET INTEREST MARGIN On a fully taxable-equivalent
basis, net interest income for 1992 was $1.7 billion, an increase of $205.9
million, or 13.8 percent, from 1991. Total average earning assets increased
$2.1 billion to $42.2 billion. A $4.7 billion increase in average securities
was partially offset by a $2.4 billion decline in loans. In the declining rate
environment, net interest income benefited from liabilities repricing more
rapidly than earning assets. Additionally, funding costs were favorably
impacted by interest rate swap hedging activity. The yield on interest- earning
assets declined 154 basis points to 7.73 percent and the rate paid on
interest-bearing sources of funds decreased 198 basis points to 4.37 percent.
The net interest margin increased 30 basis points to 4.03 percent in 1992.
     Net average noninterest-bearing sources increased $1.4 billion in the
comparison, in part as a result of the issuance of common stock and retention
of earnings. Although these sources increased, lower average rates in 1992
reduced the favorable impact on net interest income provided by such funds.

PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES The provision for credit losses was $323.5 million
compared with $428.0 million in 1991. Consistent with the national trend,
economic conditions in the markets served by the Corporation improved modestly
in 1992. This factor combined with management's efforts to improve asset
quality resulted in lower nonperforming asset and charge-off levels, and higher
reserve coverage of nonperforming loans.

NONINTEREST INCOME Total noninterest income increased $74.8 million to $886.8
million in 1992. Noninterest 
<PAGE>   52
74                         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 1992 VERSUS 1991


income for 1992 included net security gains of $214.1 million. Noninterest 
income for 1991 included $70.0 million in net security gains and $92.7 million
in gains on the sale of four Ohio banks ("Ohio Banks") and a substantial
portion of the merchant services processing portfolio.
     Investment management and trust income increased 9.4 percent to $260.1
million in 1992. The most significant growth occurred in mutual fund income,
which increased 18.5 percent to $86.0 million and resulted from growth in asset
volume. Trust revenue increased 5.3 percent to $174.2 million primarily from
new business.
     Service charges, fees and commissions revenue totaled $360.6 million in
1992 and remained relatively level compared with 1991.  An increase in deposit
account and corporate service and loan servicing income was offset by a decline
in credit card and merchant services revenue. The decline resulted from the
sale of the merchant services processing portfolio. In addition, the comparison
was negatively impacted by the sale of the Ohio Banks.

NONINTEREST EXPENSES Noninterest expenses increased $171.4 million to $1.4
billion. Despite the significant employee additions related to acquisitions and
targeted businesses, overall staff levels were reduced through various cost
savings initiatives, which involved consolidating, centralizing and outsourcing
certain operational and support functions. Average full-time equivalent
employees declined 3.3 percent in 1992. Compensation expense totaled $541.3
million in 1992, an increase of 9.4 percent, which resulted from accruals for
displaced employees related to consolidations and acquisitions, staff additions
in growth businesses and merit pay and incentive compensation.
     Employee benefit expense increased $23.2 million to $127.1 million in
1992. The change in accounting for postretirement benefits increased employee
benefits expense by $14.8 million compared with the cash basis method of
accounting used in 1991.  Additionally, pension expense increased $6.5 million
primarily due to a change in the discount rate reflecting the current interest
rate environment.
     Net occupancy and equipment expenses increased 7.8 percent to $206.6
million in 1992 as a result of the consolidation of three data centers into a
newly-constructed data processing and telecommunications center. Equipment and
software purchased for this new facility resulted in higher levels of
depreciation and software expenses. These increases were partially offset by a
decline in equipment rentals and maintenance costs that resulted from closing
the old data centers.
     The other category of noninterest expenses increased $86.0 million to
$501.8 million. Significant components of this increase include a $20.0 million
accrual for developing and implementing a common corporate identity and
consolidating the Corporation's six Pennsylvania banks; $15.1 million of
valuation adjustments and legal fees related to foreclosed asset and problem
loan workout activities; and $14.7 million for outside services related to
consolidation or outsourcing of certain operational and support functions. In
addition, contributions and donations increased $10.4 million. The remainder of
the increase reflects the net impact of acquisition and divestiture activities
as well as various cost increases.


BALANCE SHEET REVIEW

Total assets at December 31, 1992, were $51.4 billion, a $6.5 billion increase
from December 31, 1991. Total assets averaged $44.7 billion in 1992, compared
with $42.8 billion in 1991.
     In part, the changes in the composition of the Corporation's balance sheet
during 1992 reflected continued weakness in overall loan demand and the
shifting of funding sources to longer-term liabilities with attractive rates.

LOANS Total loans were $25.8 billion at December 31, 1992, compared with $25.4
billion at December 31, 1991. Total loans averaged $24.5 billion in 1992, a
decline of $2.4 billion from 1991. During 1992, the Corporation added
approximately $1.7 billion in loans as a result of bank acquisitions, of which
$1.2 billion were acquired in the fourth quarter. The increase in loan
outstandings related to bank 
<PAGE>   53
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 1992 VERSUS 1991                         75


acquisitions was mitigated by paydowns of loans resulting from the continuing
reduction of debt throughout most sectors of the economy.
     Commercial loans declined 2.3 percent to $11.0 billion at December 31,
1992, as a result of weak demand in the current economic environment and from
the Corporation's efforts to reduce exposure in certain segments of the
portfolio. The addition of approximately $290 million of commercial loans
obtained in acquisitions partially offset these declines.
     HLTs are included in various commercial loan categories. During 1992, the
federal bank regulators revised their HLT delisting criteria and the December
31, 1992, amounts reflect such revisions. HLT outstandings represented 4.3
percent of total loans at December 31, 1992, compared with 6.6 percent at
December 31, 1991. During 1992, $328 million of loans and $189 million of
unfunded commitments were no longer classified as HLTs. Of such amounts, the
revised HLT delisting criteria resulted in $131 million of loans and $89
million of commitments no longer being classified as HLTs.
     At December 31, 1992, the Corporation had 76 customers with loans
designated as HLT. The 10 largest HLT outstandings and unfunded commitments
totaled $417 million and $73 million, respectively, none of which were
classified as nonperforming. During 1992, the Corporation originated and/or
participated in $155 million of commitments to new HLT customers compared with
$10 million in 1991. HLT loan fees recognized in income during 1992 totaled
$10.9 million and deferred HLT loan fees totaled $3.7 million at December 31,
1992. The yield on the HLT portfolio, including loans classified as
nonperforming, was 7.19 percent in 1992.
     At December 31, 1992, real estate project outstandings and unfunded
commitments totaled $2.0 billion and $482 million, respectively. The comparable
December 31, 1991, amounts were $2.0 billion and $477 million, respectively.
     Commercial mortgages totaled $879 million at December 31, 1992, compared
with $783 million at December 31, 1991. Acquisitions added approximately $170
million to this category.
     Residential mortgages totaled $3.2 billion at December 31, 1992, compared
with $2.9 billion at December 31, 1991. During 1992, the Corporation originated
approximately $1.9 billion of residential mortgages, of which $1.4 billion were
securitized and sold with servicing retained. Additionally, approximately $800
million of residential mortgages were obtained in acquisitions. These increases
were partially offset by prepayment and refinancing activity.
     Consumer loans totaled $7.8 billion at December 31, 1992, an increase of
7.2 percent from December 31, 1991. The purchase of approximately $190 million
of home equity loans primarily accounted for the increase.

RISK ELEMENTS Nonperforming assets totaled $820 million at December 31, 1992,
compared with $1.1 billion at December 31, 1991. At December 31, 1992,
nonperforming assets were comprised of $554 million of loans and $266 million
of foreclosed assets. The comparable December 31, 1991, amounts were $761
million and $322 million, respectively.
     At December 31, 1992, $144 million of nonperforming loans were current as
to principal and interest compared with $149 million at December 31, 1991.
Nonperforming HLT loans totaled $41 million at December 31, 1992, compared with
$82 million at December 31, 1991.
     Nonperforming real estate project assets totaled $421 million at December
31, 1992, and were comprised of $198 million of loans and $223 million of
foreclosed real estate. The comparable December 31, 1991, amounts were $555
million, $270 million and $285 million, respectively.
     Accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more as to the payment of
principal or interest totaled $192 million at December 31, 1992, compared with
$139 million at December 31, 1991. Residential mortgage and other consumer
loans in the amount of $123 million were included in the total at December 31,
1992, compared with $83 million at December 31, 1991. Acquisitions completed in
1992 primarily contributed to the increase. Within the consumer category,
student loans totaled $61 million at December 31, 1992, and $58 million at
December 31, 1991.
<PAGE>   54
76                         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 1992 VERSUS 1991


ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES The allowance for credit losses totaled $897
million at December 31, 1992, compared with $797 million a year ago. The
allowance as a percentage of period-end loans was 3.47 percent at December 31,
1992, compared with 3.13 percent at December 31, 1991. The allowance as a
percentage of nonperforming loans was 162.1 percent and 104.7 percent at
December 31, 1992 and 1991, respectively.
     Net charge-offs were $281 million in 1992 compared with $398 million in
1991. As a percentage of average loans, net charge-offs were 1.15 percent and
1.48 percent in 1992 and 1991, respectively.
     During 1992 and 1991, HLT credits in the amount of $46 million and $49
million, respectively, were charged-off. Such charge-offs primarily related to
credits in the communications and retail/wholesale categories. Recoveries in
1992 of previously charged-off HLT credits totaled $9 million compared with $8
million in 1991.

ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT In response to the declining interest rate
environment in 1992, the Corporation reduced the overall interest rate and
prepayment risk profile of the securities portfolio by selling high coupon
fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") and reinvesting the proceeds
primarily in shorter-term U.S. Treasury and adjustable rate MBS. The MBS
acquired were primarily U.S. Government agency securities. As a result of this
repositioning, the average expected life of the MBS portfolio was reduced to
three years and one month at December 31, 1992 from five years and one month at
the prior year end. Although yields on U.S. Treasury and shorter-term
adjustable rate MBS are generally lower than longer-term fixed-rate MBS,
prepayment risk is reduced.
     During 1992, the Corporation increased its use of interest rate swaps to
manage overall interest rate sensitivity. The total notional amount of interest
rate swaps increased to $7.7 billion at December 31, 1992, from $2.7 billion at
December 31, 1991. The increase was primarily in index interest rate swaps in
which the Corporation receives payments based on fixed interest rates. During
1992, swaps benefited net interest income by $98.6 million.

SECURITIES At December 31, 1992, securities totaled $20.7 billion and were
comprised of $7.4 billion of securities available for sale and $13.3 billion of
investment securities. The comparable December 31, 1991, amounts were $14.2
billion, $1.6 billion and $12.6 billion, respectively.

DEPOSITS Average deposits declined $2.7 billion in 1992 to $28.5 billion.
Certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more declined $3.2 billion to $3.8
billion during 1992. This decline reflects management's use of lower cost
funding sources such as unsecured bank notes and repurchase agreements.
     Brokered deposits are included in certificates of deposit of $100,000 or
more and other time categories. Such amounts totaled $2.3 billion compared with
$3.7 billion at December 31, 1991. Retail brokered deposits represented 13.1
percent of the total at December 31, 1992, and 8.9 percent at year-end 1991.
Retail brokered deposits are issued or participated-out by brokers in
denominations of $100,000 or less and are fully insured.

BORROWINGS Borrowed funds totaled $11.8 billion at December 31, 1992, an
increase of $2.3 billion. Repurchase agreements increased $2.6 billion during
1992.
     Notes and debentures increased $3.0 million to $4.3 billion at December
31, 1992, primarily as a result of the issuance of bank notes.

CAPITAL Shareholders' equity totaled $3.7 billion at December 31, 1992,
compared with $3.3 billion at December 31, 1991. Tier I and total risk-based
capital ratios were 10.17 percent and 12.09 percent, respectively at December
31, 1992. The comparable December 31, 1991, amounts were 9.69 percent and 12.13
percent, respectively.

BOOK VALUE PER COMMON SHARE The value of a share of common stock based on the
values at which the assets are recorded on the balance sheet determined by
dividing shareholders' equity excluding the liquidation value of preferred
stock by the total number of common shares outstanding.

EARNING PER SHARE (EPS) The most common method of
expressing a company's profitability. Its purpose is to indicate how effective
an enterprise has been in using the resources provided by common shareholders.
EPS is usually presented in two ways: primary EPS and fully diluted EPS. The
computation of primary EPS includes other instruments which are equivalent to
common stock. Fully diluted EPS includes all instruments which have the
potential of causing additional shares of common stock to be issued.

FEE INCOME Income from fee-based services including investment management and
trust fees, service charges on deposit accounts, loan servicing fees,
transaction processing fees, credit card fees and other fees.

FORECLOSED ASSETS Property acquired through a foreclosure proceeding or
acceptance of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and loans classified as
in-substance foreclosure.

HIGHLY LEVERAGED TRANSACTIONS (HLT) Financing transactions which involve the
buyout, acquisition or recapitalization of an existing business which causes
the company's liabilities to increase significantly. HLTs also include credits
to highly leveraged companies.

LEVERAGE RATIO A measure of the relationship between capital and total assets
determined by dividing shareholders' equity less goodwill and unrealized
securities gains by average tangible assets.

MARKET CAPITALIZATION The value assigned by the market to a company's worth
determined by multiplying the number of outstanding shares by the current
market price per share.

NET CHARGE-OFFS The amount charged to the allowance for credit losses less
amounts recovered on loans and leases previously charged off.

NET INTEREST INCOME Interest income, loan fees and dividends on earning assets
less the interest expense incurred for all sources of funds.

NONPERFORMING ASSETS Assets which are not currently accruing interest, interest
is not being paid, or interest is being paid but the rate or terms were altered
due to the deteriorated financial condition of the borrower. Nonperforming
assets include nonaccrual loans, restructured loans and foreclosed assets.

OVERHEAD RATIO Noninterest expenses divided by the sum of net interest income,
adjusted to a taxable-equivalent basis, and noninterest income. A measure of
the relationship between operating expenses and revenues.

PROFIT MARGIN After-tax earnings expressed as a percentage of revenues.
Revenues include net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis and
noninterest income.

PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES A charge to earnings to recognize that all loans
will not be fully paid. The amount is determined based on such factors as the
Corporation's actual loss experience, management's expectations of probable
credit losses, as well as current economic trends.

RETURN ON AVERAGE ASSETS Net income as a percentage of average total assets.
The basic yardstick of bank profitability, indicating how effectively assets
are employed.

RETURN ON COMMON EQUITY Net income as a percentage of average common
shareholders' equity. This ratio indicates how effectively common shareholders'
equity capital is invested.

RISK-BASED CAPITAL RATIOS Regulatory measurements of capital adequacy.
Guidelines set forth how capital is to be measured and how total assets,
including certain off-balance-sheet items, are to be risk adjusted to reflect
levels of credit risk.

SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY The amount which represents the total investment in the
Corporation by holders of common and preferred stock plus retained earnings.
