ITEM 1 - BUSINESS


     BUSINESS OVERVIEW

      Introduction

     PNC Bank Corp. ("PNC Bank" or "Corporation") is a bank holding company
     registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended ("BHC
     Act"). PNC Bank was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of
     Pennsylvania in 1983 with the consolidation of Pittsburgh National
     Corporation and Provident National Corporation. Since 1983, PNC Bank has
     diversified its geographical presence and product capabilities through
     strategic bank and nonbank acquisitions and the formation of various
     nonbanking subsidiaries. At December 31, 1995, the Corporation operated
     banking subsidiaries in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Florida, Indiana,
     Kentucky, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Ohio, and conducted nonbanking
     operations throughout the United States. The Corporation's major
     businesses include consumer banking, corporate banking, real estate
     banking, mortgage banking and asset management. At December 31, 1995, the
     Corporation's consolidated total assets, deposits and shareholders' equity
     were $73.4 billion, $46.9 billion and $5.8 billion, respectively.  Based
     on total assets, PNC Bank was the 12th largest bank holding company in the
     United States at December 31, 1995. During 1995, the Corporation and
     subsidiaries employed approximately 25,400 persons on a full-time
     equivalent basis.

     Effective December 31, 1995, Midlantic Corporation ("Midlantic"), a
     regional bank holding company headquartered in Edison, New Jersey, merged
     with and into PNC Bancorp, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
     Corporation. Approximately 112 million shares of the Corporation's common
     stock were issued in connection with the merger. At closing, Midlantic had
     consolidated total assets, deposits and shareholders' equity of $13.6
     billion, $11.0 billion and $1.4 billion, respectively, and 308 branch
     offices in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The transaction was accounted for
     as a pooling of interests, and accordingly, all financial information has
     been restated as if the entities were combined for all periods presented.
     Midlantic Bank, N.A., Midlantic's principal subsidiary, will continue to
     operate under its present name until integration and consolidation plans
     are fully implemented in the third quarter of 1996. At that time, it is
     expected that Midlantic Bank, N.A. will be merged or otherwise combined
     with PNC Bank, National Association, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
     Corporation.

     The in-market nature of the Midlantic transaction is expected to generate
     substantial economies by reducing costs associated with overlapping and
     duplicative operations and provide opportunities to enhance revenues
     through marketing of the Corporation's products and services to a new
     customer base. The extent and timing of cost savings and revenue
     enhancements are dependent on various factors, some of which are beyond
     the control of the Corporation. Such factors include conversion
     strategies, customer attrition and competitive responses. Therefore, no
     assurances can be given with respect to the ultimate level of cost savings
     and revenue enhancements to be realized, or that such amounts will be
     realized in the time frame initially anticipated.

     Certain other merger and acquisition activities of the Corporation are
     summarized under the section entitled "Mergers and Acquisitions" in the
     "Corporate Financial Review" and in "Note 2 - Mergers and Acquisitions" of
     the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" included on pages 23 and
     53, respectively, of the Annual Report to Shareholders, which discussion
     is incorporated herein by reference.

      LINES OF BUSINESS

     PNC Bank delivers a broad range of financial services and products to its
     customers through five lines of business: Consumer Banking, Corporate
     Banking, Real Estate Banking, Mortgage Banking and Asset Management.
     Additional information relating to the lines of business is set forth
     under the caption entitled "Line of Business Results" in the "Corporate
     Financial Review" included on pages 35 through 39 of the Annual Report to
     Shareholders, which is incorporated herein by reference.

                                       1
<PAGE>   4
     CONSUMER BANKING Consumer Banking provides lending, deposit, personal
     trust, brokerage, investment, payment system access and other financial
     services to individuals and small businesses.  Consumer Banking serves more
     than 3.2 million households and 135,000 small businesses, with an average
     loan portfolio exceeding $15.4 billion and more than $34.2 billion in
     average deposits. The principal focus of Consumer Banking is on providing
     products and services sought by its customers in a cost-effective manner.
     In 1995, Consumer Banking reorganized its delivery channels around customer
     segments. The "Private Bank" serves affluent customers.  The "Community
     Bank" serves traditional retail customers through its "Branch Bank",
     entrepreneurs, community businesses, institutions and nonprofit
     organizations through its "Business Bank" and customers who prefer
     alternative delivery systems through the "Direct Bank". Consumer Banking's
     services are provided through approximately 950 community banking offices
     located in the Corporation's primary markets. In addition, services are
     provided through alternative delivery systems, such as the Corporation's
     telebanking center and automated teller machines ("ATMs"), and regional
     banking centers which offer a wide array of products at each center.
     Alternative delivery systems, such as the telebanking center, are expected
     to allow the Corporation to provide products and services more efficiently
     than traditional banking delivery systems.

     The Corporation continues to invest in operating platforms and alternative
     retail delivery systems, such as The National Financial Services Center,
     its Pittsburgh-based telebanking center, and to consolidate its retail
     branches. The Corporation also continues to evaluate strategic alliances
     to leverage its delivery capabilities. During 1995, the Corporation
     entered into agreements with third parties to provide certain
     administrative, marketing, data processing, customer support and related
     services for the Corporation's credit card and merchant services
     businesses. In addition, an agreement with the American Automobile
     Association announced in February 1996 is designed to offer the
     Corporation's products and services nationally to the organization's more
     than 34 million members through the Corporation's alternative delivery
     capabilities.

     CORPORATE BANKING Corporate Banking provides traditional and asset-based
     financing, liquidity and treasury management, corporate and employee
     benefit trust, capital markets, direct investment, leasing and other
     financial services to businesses and governmental entities. Corporate
     Banking serves businesses with annual revenues of $5 million or more,
     including specialized industries such as communications, health care,
     natural resources, metals, public finance, financial services and
     automobile dealer finance. In addition to serving customers within its
     primary markets, Corporate Banking has offices in several major United
     States cities to reach the national market.  Corporate Banking's focus is
     on developing and delivering specific products and services to build and
     enhance client relationships. This line of business has one of the largest
     market share positions of middle-market companies located in the
     Corporation's primary markets. In addition, Corporate Banking maintains
     banking relationships with many of the largest companies in the United
     States and is a major provider of treasury management products and
     services to large corporate customers.

     REAL ESTATE BANKING Real Estate Banking provides lending, deposit,
     treasury management, syndication, commercial mortgage-backed
     securitizations and other non-credit services to customers that manage and
     develop commercial and residential real estate properties and facilities.
     In 1995, Real Estate Banking focused on expanding its customer base and
     product line. Its customers include developers, builders, investors,
     mortgage bankers, property managers and institutions. In 1995, Real Estate
     Banking formed a joint venture with a leading commercial mortgage banker
     to provide its customers with better access to institutional debt and
     equity markets and introduced a commercial mortgage-backed securitization
     product as a real estate financing alternative. It also formed a team to
     serve the real estate needs of the Corporation's treasury management
     customers. In 1996, Real Estate Banking will further emphasize its
     securitization capabilities and expand private debt/equity placement
     opportunities.

     MORTGAGE BANKING Mortgage Banking activities include acquisition,
     origination, securitization and servicing of residential mortgages, as
     well as retention of selected loans in the portfolio. Mortgage loans are
     originated through PNC Bank's branch network and PNC Mortgage's network of
     85 origination offices in 29 states and nationally by telephone through
     its National Mortgage Center. At December 31, 1995, PNC Mortgage was the
     nation's 13th largest retail mortgage originator and 17th largest mortgage
     servicer. At such date, PNC Mortgage's servicing portfolio totaled $37.3
     billion, including $25.1 billion serviced for others. PNC Mortgage intends
     to continue to develop new ways, using technology and multiple
     distribution channels, to deliver mortgage loans and financial services to
     meet the needs of its customers in the intensely competitive environment
     in which it operates.

     ASSET MANAGEMENT Asset Management provides trust and mutual fund products
     and services including investment management, strategy, research and asset
     servicing. In 1995, the Corporation acquired BlackRock Financial
     Management, L.P. ("BlackRock") to expand its asset management service
     capabilities. At December 31, 1995, PNC Bank ranked as one of the top 20
     investment managers in the United States. PNC Asset Management had
     discretionary authority over $96 billion in assets and over $282 billion
     in assets under administration. It is the second largest bank manager of
     mutual funds and one of the largest mutual fund service providers. It
     manages or acts as sub-advisor to 94 mutual funds with assets of $42
     billion and provides custody services for mutual funds with $130 billion
     in assets. PNC Bank also provides accounting and administrative services
     for funds with over $100 billion in assets, transfer and shareholder
     services for approximately 3.5 million mutual fund shareholder accounts
     and investment research services to more than 250 financial institutions.
     In 1996, the Corporation consolidated the PNC Funds, Midlantic's Compass
     Funds and BlackRock's open-end mutual funds into one $10 billion fund
     family with a portfolio of 28 mutual funds to facilitate broader
     distribution capabilities and attract more customers. Most recently, the
     Corporation established CastleInternational Asset Management Inc., an
     international investment company in Edinburgh, Scotland, to expand
     international equity money management capabilities.

      SUBSIDIARY BANKS

     While the Corporation manages its businesses on a line-of-business basis,
     its corporate legal structure currently consists of 10 bank subsidiaries
     and over 150 active nonbank subsidiaries.  Selected information as of
     December 31, 1995, for the Corporation's banks is set forth below.

     STATISTICAL DISCLOSURES BY BANK HOLDING COMPANIES

     The "Statistical Information" contained on pages 73 through 81 of the
     Annual Report to Shareholders is incorporated herein by reference.

     RISK MANAGEMENT

     In the normal course of business, the Corporation is subject to various
     risks, the most significant of which are credit, liquidity and interest
     rate. Although it cannot eliminate these risks, the Corporation has risk
     management processes designed to provide for risk identification,
     measurement, monitoring and control.

     CREDIT RISK Credit risk represents the possibility that a customer or
     counterparty may not perform in accordance with contractual terms. Credit
     risk results from extending credit to customers, purchasing securities and
     entering into certain off-balance-sheet financial derivative
     transactions. Risk associated with the extension of credit includes
     general risk, which is inherent in the lending business, and risk specific
     to individual borrowers. The Corporation seeks to manage credit risk
     through portfolio diversification, underwriting policies and procedures,
     and loan monitoring practices. Information relating to the distribution of
     the loan portfolio by type of loan, loan maturities and interest
     sensitivity is set forth under the section entitled "Loans" in the
     "Corporate Financial Review" and "Loans" in the "Statistical Information"
     included on pages 27 and 28 and page 77, respectively, of the Annual
     Report to Shareholders, which is incorporated herein by reference.

     Credit Administration, which includes credit policy, loan review and loan
     workout, is responsible for the overall management of credit risk and the
     development, application and enforcement of uniform policies and
     procedures across PNC Bank. One objective is diversification by industry
     concentration, geographic distribution and the type of borrower. Policies
     contain limits on amounts that may be committed for specified categories
     of loans and individual borrowers. These limits are specified for both
     consolidated and individual bank exposure levels. Specific underwriting
     policies have been adopted for many categories of exposure including
     commercial real estate, cable, cellular, broadcasting, health care and
     automobile dealers, as well as general policies covering standards of
     documentation, collateral coverage, guarantee provisions, environmental
     risk protection and approval processes.

     PNC Bank receives collateral to support credit extensions and commitments
     when deemed necessary, the amount of which is based on management's credit
     evaluation of the borrower. The most significant categories of collateral
     include real estate, commercial business assets, cash on deposit and
     marketable securities. In addition, for some loans made on the basis of
     the general creditworthiness of the borrower, additional security in the
     form of real and personal property may be obtained that may not be
     directly related to the purpose of the loan.

     In order to assess and monitor the degree of risk in the loan portfolio, a
     lender-initiated credit risk grading system is used.  A risk grade is
     assigned to each loan at origination based on an assessment of the
     borrower's financial capacity to service the debt and the presence and
     value of collateral. Industry and economic risks are also considered when
     assigning such grades.  Risk grades are maintained by the loan officer
     whose responsibilities include monitoring the risk inherent in such
     individual credits. An independent corporate loan review function assesses
     the credit granting process and reviews risk grades for compliance with
     policies.

     Asset and liability ("A&L") management seeks to minimize the credit risk
     associated with its activities, including financial derivatives, primarily
     by entering into transactions with only a select number of high-quality
     institutions, establishing credit limits, requiring bilateral-netting
     agreements, and in certain instances, requiring segregated collateral.
     Additional information with respect to risk associated with the
     Corporation's financial derivatives is set forth under the section entitled
     "Financial Derivatives" in the "Corporate Financial Review" included on
     pages 31 through 34 of the Annual Report to Shareholders, which is
     incorporated herein by reference.

     LIQUIDITY RISK Liquidity represents an institution's ability to generate
     cash or otherwise obtain funds at reasonable rates to satisfy commitments
     to borrowers and demands of depositors and debtholders, and invest in
     strategic initiatives. Liquidity risk represents the likelihood the
     Corporation would be unable to generate cash or otherwise obtain funds at
     reasonable rates for such purposes. 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 through direct borrowing or securitization of assets,
     such as automobile and credit card loans.

                                       4
<PAGE>   7
     As described under "Liquidity" in the "Corporate Financial Review" on page
     41 of the Annual Report to Shareholders, which is incorporated herein by
     reference, management believes that the Corporation has sufficient
     liquidity to meet its current commitments and obligations to customers,
     debtholders and others.

     INTEREST RATE RISK Interest rate risk arises primarily through the
     Corporation's normal business activities of extending loans and taking
     deposits. Interest rate risk is the sensitivity of net interest income and
     the market value of financial instruments to the timing, magnitude and
     frequency of changes in interest rates.  Interest rate risk results from
     various repricing frequencies and the maturity structure of assets,
     liabilities, and off-balance-sheet positions. Interest rate risk also
     results from, among other factors, changes in the relationship or spread
     between interest rates. Many factors, including economic and financial
     conditions, general movements in market interest rates and consumer
     preferences, affect the spread between interest earned on assets and
     interest paid on liabilities. Financial derivatives, primarily interest
     rate swaps, caps and floors, are used to alter the interest rate
     characteristics of assets and liabilities. For example, receive-fixed
     interest rate swaps effectively convert variable-rate assets to fixed-rate
     assets.

     In managing interest rate risk, the Corporation seeks to minimize reliance
     on a particular interest rate scenario as a source of earnings.
     Accordingly, wholesale activities including securities, funding, financial
     derivatives and capital market activities are used in managing core
     business exposures within specified guidelines. Interest rate risk is
     centrally managed by A&L management. As part of the overall interest rate
     risk management process, A&L management will initiate various actions to
     manage risks within the Corporation's guidelines. Such actions are
     dependent on costs, existing and expected economic conditions, the
     Corporation's business strategies and various other factors.  A committee
     composed of members of senior management and a committee of the
     Corporation's Board of Directors oversees A&L management and periodically
     reviews interest rate risk exposures.

     The Corporation uses a number of measures to monitor and manage interest
     rate risk, including income simulation and interest sensitivity ("gap")
     analyses. In addition, the Corporation is in the process of developing
     measures of longer-term interest rate sensitivity, including duration of
     equity and equity at risk.  Such models are designed to estimate the
     impact on the value of equity resulting from changes in interest rates and
     supplement the simulation model and gap analyses.

     An income simulation model is the primary tool used by management to
     assess the direction and magnitude of changes in net interest income
     resulting from changes in interest rates. Key assumptions employed in the
     model include interest rate movements, balance sheet growth, prepayment
     speeds on mortgage-related assets, cash flows and maturities of financial
     instruments, changes in market conditions, loan volumes and pricing,
     deposit sensitivity, customer preferences, and management's financial and
     capital plans. The assumptions are developed based on current business and
     A&L management strategies, historical experience, the current economic
     environment, forecasted economic conditions and other analyses. These
     assumptions are inherently uncertain and subject to change as time passes.
     Accordingly, under these scenarios the model is not an estimate of
     expected net interest income nor does it precisely predict the impact of
     higher or lower interest rates on net interest income.

     The Corporation's guidelines provide that net interest income should not
     decrease by more than 3 percent if interest rates gradually increase or
     decrease from current rates by 100 basis points over a twelve month
     period. At December 31, 1995, based on results of the simulation model,
     the Corporation was within these guidelines. The impact of changes in
     interest rates on these measures will differ from simulated results due to
     various factors including timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate
     changes, the relationship or spread between various interest rates,
     changes in market conditions, loan pricing and deposit sensitivity,
     customer preferences and competition. In addition, the actual results will
     be affected by the impact of mergers or acquisitions and business and A&L
     management strategies that differ from those assumed in the model.

     Additional interest rate scenarios are modeled to address a wider range of
     rate movement, yield curve, term structure and basis risk exposures.
     Depending on market conditions and other inherent risks, these scenarios
     may be modeled more or less frequently.  Such analyses are used as
     supplemental measurements only and limits have not been established.

     The Corporation also employs interest sensitivity (gap) analyses.  A gap
     analysis represents a point-in-time net position of assets, liabilities
     and off-balance-sheet instruments subject to repricing in specified time
     periods. A cumulative asset-sensitive gap position indicates the
     Corporation's assets are expected to reprice more quickly than its
     liabilities. Alternatively, a cumulative liability-sensitive gap position
     indicates the Corporation's liabilities are expected to reprice more
     quickly than its assets. The gap analysis does not accurately measure the
     magnitude of changes in net interest income since changes in interest
     rates over time do not impact all categories of assets, liabilities and
     off-balance-sheet instruments equally or simultaneously. The Corporation's
     limit for the cumulative one-year gap position is 10 percent. 

                                       5
<PAGE>   8
     During January 1996, to reduce exposure to declining interest rates, the
     Corporation added receive-fixed interest rate swaps with a term of two
     years which converted designated assets from variable rates to fixed
     rates.  As a result, the asset sensitivity of the Corporation's cumulative
     one-year gap position was reduced from 7.0 percent at December 31, 1995,
     to 3.8 percent.

     The "Interest Rate Sensitivity (Gap) Analysis" table set forth in the
     "Corporate Financial Review" on page 42 of the Annual Report to
     Shareholders is incorporated herein by reference.

     EFFECT OF GOVERNMENTAL MONETARY POLICIES

     The earnings and operations of bank holding companies and their
     subsidiaries are affected by the monetary and fiscal policies of the
     United States government and its agencies, including the Federal Reserve
     Board. An important function of the Federal Reserve Board is to regulate
     the national supply of bank credit.  The Federal Reserve Board employs
     open market operations in U.S.  Government securities, changes in the
     discount rate on bank borrowings and changes in reserve requirements on
     bank deposits to implement its monetary policy objectives. 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 or timing of future changes in monetary and fiscal
     policies or the effect that they may have on the Corporation's business
     and earnings.

     SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

      INTRODUCTION

     Bank holding companies, banks and many of their nonbank affiliates are
     extensively regulated under both federal and state law. The following
     information describes certain aspects of that regulation applicable to the
     Corporation and its subsidiaries, and does not purport to be complete. The
     discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to all particular
     statutory or regulatory provisions.

     The Corporation is a legal entity separate and distinct from its
     subsidiary banks and its nonbank subsidiaries. Accordingly, the right of
     the Corporation, and consequently the right of creditors and shareholders
     of the Corporation, to participate in any distribution of the assets or
     earnings of any subsidiary is necessarily subject to the prior claims of
     creditors of the subsidiary, except to the extent that claims of the
     Corporation in its capacity as creditor may be recognized. The principal
     source of the Corporation's revenue and cash flow is dividends from its
     subsidiary banks and nonbank subsidiaries. There are legal limitations on
     the extent to which its subsidiary banks can finance or otherwise supply
     funds to the Corporation and its nonbank subsidiaries.

      BANK HOLDING COMPANIES

     GENERAL As a registered holding company, the Corporation is regulated
     under the BHC Act and is subject to supervision and regular inspection by
     the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve
     Board"). The BHC 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.

     ACQUISITIONS/PERMISSIBLE BUSINESS ACTIVITIES The BHC Act currently permits
     bank holding companies from any state to acquire banks and bank holding
     companies located in any other state, subject to certain conditions,
     including certain nationwide- and state-imposed concentration limits.
     Effective June 1, 1997, the Corporation's subsidiary banks will have the
     ability, subject to certain restrictions, including state opt-out
     provisions, to consolidate with one another or to acquire by acquisition
     or merger branches outside their home states. States may affirmatively
     opt-in to permit these transactions earlier, which Delaware and
     Pennsylvania, among other states, have done.  The establishment of new
     interstate branches also will be possible in those states with laws that
     expressly permit it.  Interstate branches will be subject to certain laws
     of the states in which they are located. Competition may increase further
     as banks branch across state lines and enter new markets.

                                       6
<PAGE>   9
     Under the BHC Act, the Corporation is prohibited, with certain exceptions,
     from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5
     percent of any class of voting shares of any nonbanking 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 nonbanking
     corporations except those corporations engaged in businesses or furnishing
     services that the Federal Reserve Board deems to be closely related to
     banking.

     COMMUNITY REINVESTMENT Bank holding companies and their subsidiary banks
     are 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 generally annually
     assessed by that bank's primary regulatory 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. At December 31, 1995, the
     Corporation's subsidiary banks were rated "Outstanding" or "Satisfactory"
     with respect to CRA.

     SOURCE OF STRENGTH POLICY 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 to support each such
     bank. 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 corporation's capital
     needs, asset quality and overall financial condition.

      SUBSIDIARY BANKS

     GENERAL The Corporation's subsidiary banks are subject to supervision and
     examination by applicable federal and state banking agencies, including,
     with respect to national banks, the Office of the Comptroller of the
     Currency ("OCC"). In addition, all of the subsidiary banks are insured by
     and subject to some or all of the regulations of the Federal Deposit
     Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). The Corporation's subsidiary banks are
     also subject to various requirements and restrictions under federal and
     state law, including requirements to maintain reserves against deposits,
     restrictions on the types, amounts and terms and conditions of loans that
     may be granted and limitations on the types of investments that may be
     made and the types of services that may be offered. Various consumer laws
     and regulations also affect the operations of the subsidiary banks.

     DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS Dividends from the Corporation's subsidiary banks
     constitute the principal source of income to the parent company. The
     Corporation's subsidiary banks are subject to various statutory and
     regulatory restrictions on their ability to pay dividends to the
     Corporation. Under such restrictions, the amount available for payment of
     dividends to the Corporation by all subsidiary banks totaled $650 million
     at December 31, 1995.  In addition, bank regulators may have authority to
     prohibit a bank subsidiary from paying dividends, depending upon the
     subsidiary's financial condition, if such payment is deemed to constitute
     an unsafe or unsound practice. The OCC and the Federal Reserve Board 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 subsidiary banks to pay dividends in the future is
     presently, and could be further, influenced by bank regulatory and
     supervisory policies.

     AFFILIATE TRANSACTION RESTRICTIONS The Corporation's subsidiary banks are
     subject to federal laws that limit the transactions by subsidiary banks to
     or on behalf of their parent company and to or on behalf of any nonbank
     subsidiaries. Such transactions by a subsidiary bank to its parent company
     or to any nonbank subsidiary are limited to 10 percent of a bank
     subsidiary's capital and surplus and, with respect to such parent company
     and all such nonbank subsidiaries, to an aggregate of 20 percent of such
     bank subsidiary's capital and surplus. Further, loans and extensions of
     credit generally are required to be secured by eligible collateral in
     specified amounts. Federal law also prohibits subsidiary banks from
     purchasing "low-quality" assets from affiliates.

     FDIC CROSS-GUARANTEE PROVISIONS The Corporation's subsidiary banks are
     subject to the "cross-guarantee" provisions under federal law that 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 estimated losses suffered by
     the FDIC. Such liability could have a material adverse effect on the
     financial condition of any assessed bank and the Corporation.  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.

                                       7
<PAGE>   10
     FDIC INSURANCE ASSESSMENTS Deposits of the Corporation's bank subsidiaries
     are insured by the FDIC and are subject to FDIC insurance assessments. 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. During 1995, the FDIC's Board of
     Directors significantly reduced premium rates assessed on deposits insured
     by the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF"). Under the current regulations, the
     Corporation is not assessed a premium on BIF-insured deposits. The rates
     assessed for deposits insured by the Savings Association Insurance Fund
     ("SAIF") continue to range from 23 cents per $100 of eligible deposits
     to 31 cents per $100 of eligible deposits. Approximately $5.3 billion of
     the Corporation's deposits are insured by the SAIF and assessed 23 cents
     per $100 of eligible deposits. Congress and various governmental agencies
     are considering a number of proposals to recapitalize the SAIF, including
     a significant one-time assessment on all SAIF-insured deposits. Management
     currently cannot predict the outcome of these proposals or the effect, if
     any, on the Corporation or any of its subsidiary banks.

     ENFORCEMENT POWERS OF FEDERAL BANKING AGENCIES Federal banking agencies
     possess broad powers to take corrective action as deemed appropriate for
     an insured depository institution and its holding company. The extent of
     these powers depends on whether the institution in question is considered
     "well capitalized", "adequately capitalized", "undercapitalized",
     "significantly undercapitalized" or "critically undercapitalized". At
     December 31, 1995, all of the Corporation's subsidiary banks exceeded the
     required ratios for classification as "well capitalized." The
     classification of depository institutions is primarily for the purpose of
     applying the federal banking agencies' prompt corrective action powers and
     is not intended to be, and should not be interpreted as, a representation
     of the overall financial condition or prospects of any financial
     institution.

     The agencies' prompt corrective action 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 company; placing limits on asset growth and
     restrictions on activities; including restrictions on transactions with
     affiliates; restricting the interest rate the institution may pay on
     deposits; 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. Among other things, 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.

     CAPITAL GUIDELINES Under the risk-based capital guidelines applicable to
     the Corporation and each of its subsidiary banks, the minimum guideline for
     the ratio of total capital to risk- weighted assets (including certain
     off-balance-sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) is 8.00
     percent. At least half of the total capital must be "Tier 1" capital, which
     primarily includes common shareholders' equity and qualifying preferred
     stock, less goodwill and other disallowed intangibles. "Tier 2" capital 
     includes, among other items, certain cumulative and limited-life
     preferred stock, qualifying subordinated debt and the allowance for credit
     losses, subject to certain limitations, less required deductions as
     prescribed by regulation.

     In addition, the federal bank regulators established leverage ratio (Tier
     1 capital to total adjusted average assets) guidelines providing for a
     minimum leverage ratio of 3 percent for bank holding companies and banks
     meeting certain specified criteria, including that such institutions have
     the highest regulatory examination rating and are not contemplating
     significant growth or expansion. Institutions not meeting these criteria
     are expected to maintain a ratio which exceeds the 3 percent minimum by at
     least 100 to 200 basis points. The federal bank regulatory agencies may,
     however, set higher capital requirements when particular circumstances
     warrant. Under the federal banking laws, failure to meet the minimum
     regulatory capital requirements could subject a bank to a variety of
     enforcement remedies available to federal bank regulatory agencies.

     At December 31, 1995, all of the subsidiary banks' total and Tier 1
     risk-based capital ratios and leverage ratios exceeded the minimum
     regulatory capital requirements.

     Additional discussion of the Corporation's current capital levels is set
     forth under the caption entitled "Capital" in the "Corporate Financial
     Review" on pages 30 and 31 of the Annual Report to Shareholders, which is
     incorporated herein by reference.

     Effective in January 1995, the federal banking agencies revised the
     risk-based capital standards described above to include concentration of
     credit risk and the risks of nontraditional activities. The Federal
     Reserve Board, the FDIC and the OCC also subsequently amended their
     capital standards to include a bank's exposure to declines in economic
     value 

                                       8
<PAGE>   11
     of its capital due to changes in interest rates. The Corporation
     understands that such agencies intend to continue reviewing the issue of
     interest rate risk as it may affect capital adequacy.

      NONBANK SUBSIDIARIES

     The nonbank subsidiaries of the Corporation are subject to regulatory
     restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Board and other federal or
     state regulatory agencies.

     The Corporation's subsidiaries engaged in securities-related activities
     are regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The
     activities of the Corporation's two subsidiaries which are registered
     broker dealers are also monitored by the OCC in one instance and the
     Federal Reserve Board in the other instance. Each such company is also
     subject to rules and regulations promulgated by the National Association
     of Securities Dealers, Inc., the Securities Investors Protection
     Corporation and various state securities commissions, and with respect to
     public finance activities the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board.

     Several nonbank subsidiaries of the Corporation are registered investment
     advisers and are subject to the regulations of the SEC and may be subject
     to regulations of one or more state securities commissions. Additionally,
     these investment advisers, as subsidiaries of a national bank, are subject
     to supervision by the OCC. Investment companies (as defined in the
     Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) advised by a subsidiary of the
     Corporation are registered with the SEC.

     Other nonbank subsidiaries of the Corporation are regulated under federal
     and/or state mortgage lending, insurance and consumer laws, among others.

      LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS AND REFORMS

     Significant legislative proposals and reforms affecting the financial
     services industry have been discussed and evaluated by Congress. In 1995,
     such proposals included legislation to revise the Glass-Steagall Act and
     the BHC Act to expand permissible activities for banks, principally to
     facilitate the convergence of commercial and investment banking. Certain
     proposals also sought to expand insurance activities of banks. It is
     unclear whether any of these proposals, or any form of them, will become
     law. Consequently, it is not possible to determine what effect, if any,
     they may have on the Corporation and its subsidiaries.

     COMPETITION

     Bank holding companies and their subsidiaries are subject to vigorous and
     intense competition from various financial institutions and other
     "nonbank" or non-regulated companies or firms that engage in similar
     activities. The Corporation's subsidiary banks compete for deposits with
     other commercial banks, savings banks, savings and loan associations,
     insurance companies and credit unions, as well as issuers of commercial
     paper and other securities, including shares in mutual funds. In making
     loans, the Corporation's subsidiary banks compete with other commercial
     banks, savings banks, savings and loan associations, consumer finance
     companies, credit unions, leasing companies and other nonbank lenders. In
     addition, various nonbank subsidiaries engaged in investment banking and
     venture capital activities compete with commercial banks, investment
     banking firms, insurance companies and venture capital firms. In providing
     asset management services, the Corporation's subsidiaries compete with
     many large commercial banks, trust companies, brokerage houses, mutual
     fund managers, registered investment advisors and insurance companies.

     The Corporation and its subsidiaries compete not only with financial
     institutions based in the states in which the subsidiary banks are
     located, but also with a number of large out-of-state and foreign banks,
     bank holding companies and other financial and nonbank institutions. Some
     of the financial and other institutions operating in the same markets are
     engaged in national and international operations and have more assets and
     personnel than the Corporation. Some of the Corporation's competitors are
     not subject to the extensive bank regulatory structure and restrictive
     policies which apply to the Corporation and its subsidiaries.

ITEM 2 - PROPERTIES

     The executive and administrative offices of the Corporation and PNC Bank,
     National Association ("PNC Bank, N.A."), are located at One PNC Plaza, 249
     Fifth Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The thirty-story structure is
     owned by PNC Bank, N.A. The Corporation and PNC Bank, N.A. occupy
     substantially all of the building. In addition, PNC Bank, N.A. owns a
     thirty-four story structure adjacent to One PNC Plaza, known as Two PNC
     Plaza, 620 Liberty Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, that houses
     additional office space. PNC Bank, N.A. also owns a data processing and
     telecommunications center located in a suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

     The Corporation's subsidiaries also own or lease numerous other premises
     for use in conducting banking and nonbanking 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.

     Additional information pertaining to the Corporation's properties is set
     forth in "Note 8 - Premises, Equipment and Leasehold Improvements" of the
     Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included on page 56 of the
     Annual Report to Shareholders, which is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 3 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     A consolidated purported class action complaint was filed in March 1995 in
     the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania
     against the Corporation, its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and its
     Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, on behalf of a
     purported class of persons who purchased the Corporation's securities
     between April 18, 1994 and November 15, 1994. The lawsuit was consolidated
     from four lawsuits filed in November and December 1994. The consolidated
     complaint alleges violations of federal securities laws and common law
     relating to disclosures regarding the Corporation's net interest income,
     interest rate risk, future prospects, and related matters, and seeks,
     among other things, unquantified damages. The magistrate judge has
     recommended that the district court deny the pending motion to dismiss as
     to all claims except a common law claim, and the recommendation has been
     appealed to the district court judge. Management believes there are
     meritorious defenses to this consolidated lawsuit and intends to defend it
     vigorously. Management believes that the final disposition will not be
     material to the Corporation's financial position.

     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
     law in connection with credit card annual fees, late fees, over-credit
     limit fees, and returned check fees charged to Pennsylvania cardholders.
     The lawsuit is brought on behalf of a purported class of resident
     individuals of Pennsylvania who have contracted for, been charged, had
     reserved, or had paid these fees, and seeks, among other things,
     unquantified compensatory and triple damages and injunctive relief. The
     lawsuit was filed in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County and was
     removed to the United States District Court for the Western District of
     Pennsylvania. The district court dismissed the lawsuit, holding that
     Pennsylvania law is preempted by federal banking laws. The Third Circuit
     Court of Appeals, after initially holding that there was no federal court
     jurisdiction and remanding the case to state court, has vacated its
     opinion and granted a rehearing.

     The case against PNCNB is one of several similar cases pending against
     other credit card issuers. In cases not involving PNCNB, the Supreme
     Courts of California and Colorado, and one federal appeals court, have
     upheld dismissal on the ground that state law restrictions on credit card
     late fees are preempted by federal law, but the Supreme Court of New
     Jersey has reached a contrary conclusion. The United States Supreme Court
     has agreed to review the California late fee case, the outcome of which
     will resolve the conflict and affect the case against PNCNB. In an appeal
     of Pennsylvania Superior Court decisions against other credit card issuers
     holding that federal law does not preempt Pennsylvania law purportedly
     restricting annual fees, late fees, over-credit limit fees, and returned
     check fees, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court has indicated it will defer
     further proceedings until after the United States Supreme Court renders
     its decision. The impact of the final disposition of the lawsuit brought
     against PNCNB cannot be assessed at this time.

     In March 1996, the Superior Court of New Jersey, Middlesex County,
     dismissed, pursuant to agreement of the parties, the previously reported
     purported class action lawsuit commenced in July 1995 against Midlantic,
     Midlantic's chief executive officer and its directors and the Corporation,
     relating to the merger with Midlantic. No compensation was paid by any
     defendant to plaintiff or plaintiff's attorneys.

<PAGE>   14
     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 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 4 - SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

     A special meeting of shareholders of the Corporation was held on November
     17, 1995, for the purpose of approving the reorganization agreement and
     related merger agreement with Midlantic. The Midlantic merger was approved
     and the votes cast for, against or abstained and the number of broker
     non-votes were as follows:

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
     29, 1996, there were 65,572 common 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 on
     earnings, the financial condition of the Corporation and other factors
     including applicable government regulations and policies (such as those
     relating to the ability of the subsidiary banks and nonbank subsidiaries
     to upstream dividends to the parent company). The Federal Reserve Board
     has the power to prohibit the Corporation from paying dividends without
     prior regulatory approval. Further discussion concerning dividend
     restrictions is set forth under the caption "Supervision and Regulation"
     in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-K and in "Regulatory Matters" on page 65

     AGREEMENT, dated December 29, 1995 and effective as of the Effective Date
(as defined in Section 2 hereof) by and between Garry J. Scheuring (the
"Executive"), and PNC Bank Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "Company").

     WHEREAS, the Executive is the Chief Executive Officer of Midlantic
Corporation, a New Jersey corporation ("Midlantic"); and

     WHEREAS, the Company, PNC Bancorp., Inc. and Midlantic have entered into
an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated July 10, 1995 (the "Merger Agreement"),
pursuant to which the Company will be the surviving corporation of the merger
contemplated thereby (the "Merger"); and

     WHEREAS, upon consummation of the Merger the Board of Directors of the
Company (the "Board") desires to employ the Executive and the Executive desires
to furnish services to the Company on the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth; and

     WHEREAS, the parties desire to enter into this agreement setting forth the
terms and conditions of the employment relationship of the Executive with the
Company;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements
set forth below, the parties hereto, intending to be bound hereby, do hereby
agree as follows:

     1.  EMPLOYMENT. The Company hereby agrees to employ the Executive, and the
Executive hereby accepts such employment, on the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth.

     2.  TERM. The period of employment of the Executive by the Company
hereunder (the "Employment Period") shall commence on the effective date of the
Merger (the "Effective Date") and shall end on the third anniversary of the
Effective Date unless sooner terminated in the event that the Executive's
employment is terminated without breach of this Agreement as provided in
Section 7 hereof.

     3.  POSITION AND DUTIES. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall
serve as Vice Chairman of the Company and shall be a member of the office of
the Chairman. The Executive shall have operating responsibility for (i) the
Eastern Territory (consisting of New Jersey and Philadelphia) and Eastern
Territory Presidents, (ii) all retail banking operations of the Company, and
(iii) such further responsibilities and authority as may from time to time be
assigned to the Executive by the Chairman of the Board, provided that such
responsibilities and authority are consistent with the Executive's position as
Vice Chairman of the Company. The Executive shall report directly to the
Chairman of the Board of the Company. The Executive agrees to devote
substantially all of his working time and efforts to the performance of his
duties for the Company.

     4.  PLACE OF PERFORMANCE. In connection with the Executive's employment by
the Company, the Executive shall be based at the offices of the Eastern
Territory of the Company located in New Jersey, except for reasonably required
travel on the Company's business.

     5.  COMPENSATION AND RELATED MATTERS.

      (a)  BASE SALARY. As compensation for the performance by the Executive of
his obligations hereunder, during the Employment Period, the Company shall pay
the Executive a base salary at the rate of $650,000 or more per annum ("Base
Salary"). Base Salary shall be paid in approximately equal installments in
accordance with the Company's customary payroll practices, but no less frequent
than monthly. Base Salary may be increased from time to time in accordance with
the normal business practices of the Company and, if so increased, shall not
thereafter during the Employment Period be decreased.

                                      1
<PAGE>   6
      (b)  BONUSES. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be
eligible to receive such annual bonus (the "Annual Bonus") as may be provided
in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section 5; provided, however, that
the Executive's Annual Bonus for the fiscal year ending in 1996 shall be not
less than 100% of the Executive's Base Salary for such year. The Annual Bonus
shall be paid at such time and in such form as is set forth in the Company's
applicable incentive plan (the "Incentive Plan").

      (c)  EXPENSES. The Company shall promptly reimburse the Executive for all
reasonable business expenses incurred during the Employment Period by the
Executive in performing services hereunder, including all expenses of travel
and living expenses while traveling on business or at the request of and in the
service of the Company, provided that such expenses are incurred and accounted
for in accordance with the policies and procedures established by the Company.

      (d)  OTHER BENEFITS. The Executive shall be entitled to participate in
all of the employee benefit plans and arrangements currently maintained by the
Company and shall be entitled to participate in or receive benefits under any
employee benefit plan or arrangement made available by the Company in the
future to its executives and key management employees (in the case of both
current and future plans, including without limitation each incentive plan,
pension and retirement plan and arrangement, supplemental pension and
retirement plan and arrangement, stock option plan, life insurance and
health-and-accident plan and arrangement, medical insurance plan, disability
plan, survivor income plan, relocation plan and vacation plan), in accordance
with the terms, conditions and overall administration of such plans and
arrangements; provided, however, that in the case of both current and future
plans, benefits shall be provided to the Executive on a basis no less favorable
than the basis on which such benefits are provided to any other member of the
Office of the Chairman (other than the Chairman of the Board). Nothing paid to
the Executive under any plan or arrangement presently in effect or made
available in the future shall be deemed to be in lieu of the salary payable to
the Executive pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 5.

      (e)  VACATION. The Executive shall be entitled to the number of paid
vacation days and holidays in each calendar year determined by the Company from
time to time for its senior executive officers.

      (f)  SERVICES FURNISHED. During the Employment Period, the Company shall
furnish the Executive with office space, stenographic assistance and such other
facilities and services as shall be suitable to the Executive's position and
adequate for the performance of his duties as set forth in Section 3 hereof.

     6.  OFFICES. Subject to Sections 3 and 4 hereof, the Executive agrees to
serve without additional compensation, if elected or appointed thereto, as a
director of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and as a member of any
committees of the board of directors of any such corporations, and in one or
more executive positions of any of the Company's subsidiaries, provided that
the Executive is indemnified for serving in any and all such capacities on a
basis no less favorable than is currently provided to any other director of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries, or any such executive position, as the case
may be.

     7.  TERMINATION. The Executive's employment hereunder may be terminated
without any breach of this Agreement only under the circumstances set forth in
the following subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d):

      (a)  DEATH. The Executive's employment hereunder shall terminate upon his
death.

      (b)  DISABILITY. If, as a result of the Executive's incapacity due to
physical or mental illness, the Executive shall have been absent from the
full-time performance of his duties hereunder for the entire period of six
consecutive months, and within thirty (30) days after written Notice of
Termination (as defined in Section 8 hereof) is given shall not have returned
to the performance of his duties hereunder on a full-time basis, the Company
may terminate the Executive's employment hereunder for "Disability."

      (c)  CAUSE. The Company may terminate the Executive's employment
hereunder for Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, the Company shall have
"Cause" to terminate the Executive's employment hereunder only upon the
occurrence of any of the following events:

                                      2
<PAGE>   7
        (i)  the willful and continuing failure by the Executive to
   substantially perform his duties hereunder (other than any such failures
   resulting from the Executive's incapacity due to physical or mental illness
   or subsequent to the issuance of a Notice of Termination by the Executive
   for Good Reason) after demand for substantial performance is delivered by
   the Company in writing that specifically identifies the manner in which the
   Company believes the Executive has not substantially performed his duties;
   or

        (ii)  the willful misconduct by the Executive (including, but not
   limited to, breach by the Executive of the provisions of Section 11(a)
   hereof) that is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company or its
   subsidiaries, whether monetarily or otherwise; or

        (iii)  the order of a federal bank regulatory agency or a court of
   competent jurisdiction requiring the Executive's termination.

        Cause shall not exist unless and until the Company has delivered to 
   the Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote 
   of not less than three-quarters (3/4) of the entire membership of the 
   Board of Directors of the Company at a meeting of such board called and 
   held for such purpose (after reasonable notice to the Executive and an 
   opportunity for the Executive, together with his counsel, to be heard 
   before such board), finding that in the good faith opinion of such board, 
   the Executive was guilty of the conduct set forth in this Section 7(c) and 
   specifying the particulars thereof in detail. For purposes of this 
   Section 7(c), no act or failure to act on the Executive's part shall be 
   considered "willful" unless done or failed to be done by the Executive in 
   bad faith and without reasonable belief that the Executive's action or 
   omission was in the best interest of the Company.

      (d)  GOOD REASON. The termination of his employment by the Executive
during the Employment Period hereunder for any reason other than death or
Disability shall constitute a termination for "Good Reason."

     8.  TERMINATION PROCEDURE.

      (a)  NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Any termination of the Executive's employment
by the Company or by the Executive (other than termination pursuant to Section
7(a) hereof) shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the
other party hereto in accordance with Section 14 hereof. For purposes of this
Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a notice which shall indicate
the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set
forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a
basis for termination of the Executive's employment under the provision so
indicated.

      (b)  DATE OF TERMINATION. "Date of Termination" shall mean (i) if the
Executive's employment is terminated by his death, the date of his death; (ii)
if the Executive's employment is terminated for Disability (pursuant to Section
7(b) hereof), thirty (30) days after Notice of Termination (provided that the
Executive shall not have returned to the performance of his duties on a
full-time basis during such thirty (30) day period); (iii) if the Executive's
employment is terminated for Cause (pursuant to Section 7(c) hereof), the date
specified in the Notice of Termination; and (iv) if the Executive's employment
is terminated for any other reason, the date on which a Notice of Termination
is given or any later date (within 30 days) set forth in such Notice of
Termination; provided, however, that, if within thirty (30) days after any
Notice of Termination is given the party receiving such Notice of Termination
notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, the
Date of Termination shall be the date on which the dispute is finally
determined, either by mutual written agreement of the parties, by a binding and
final arbitration award or by a final judgment, order or decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction (the time for appeal therefrom having expired and no
appeal having been perfected); and further provided, however, that the Date of
Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute given by the Executive
only if such notice is given in good faith and the Executive pursues the
resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence.

      (c)  COMPENSATION DURING DISPUTE. If a purported termination occurs
during the Employment Period, and such termination is disputed in accordance
with subsection (b) of this Section 8, the Company shall continue to pay the
Executive the full compensation in effect when the notice giving rise to the
dispute was given (including, but not limited to, Base Salary) and continue the
Executive as a participant in all compensation, benefit and insurance plans in
which the Executive was participating when the notice giving rise to the
dispute was given, until the Date of Termination, determined in accordance with
subsection (b) of this Section B. Amounts paid under this Section 8(c) are in
addition to all other amounts due under this Agreement and shall not be offset
against or reduce any other amounts due under this Agreement.

                                      3
<PAGE>   8
     9.  COMPENSATION UPON TERMINATION OR DURING DISABILITY.

      (a)  DISABILITY; DEATH. During any period that the Executive fails to
perform his duties hereunder as a result of incapacity due to physical or
mental illness ("Disability Period"), the Executive shall continue to receive
his full Base Salary at the rate in effect at the beginning of such period,
until his employment is terminated pursuant to Section 7(b) hereof. Subsequent
to the termination of the Executive's employment pursuant to Section 7(b)
hereof, or in the event the Executive's employment is terminated by reason of
his death, the Company shall have no further obligations to the Executive under
this Agreement and the Executive's benefits shall be determined under the
Company's retirement, insurance and other compensation programs then in effect
in accordance with the terms of such programs.

      (b)  BY EXECUTIVE FOR GOOD REASON OR BY THE COMPANY WITHOUT CAUSE. If
during the Employment Period the Executive's employment is terminated by the
Executive for Good Reason or by the Company other than for Cause, then --

        (i)  the Company shall pay the Executive his full Base Salary through
   the Date of Termination at the highest annual rate in effect during the 12
   months immediately preceding the time Notice of Termination is given;

        (ii)  in addition to any payments due the Executive pursuant to Section
   5 hereof through the Date of Termination and in lieu of any further such
   payments to the Executive for any periods subsequent to the Date of
   Termination, the Company shall pay to the Executive a lump sum amount, in
   cash, equal to 2.99 times his "base amount," as defined in section 28OG of
   the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), as determined in
   accordance with temporary, proposed or final regulations, if any,
   promulgated under section 28OG of the Code, provided that increases in the
   Executive's "base amount" attributable to the exercise or settlement of
   stock options shall, if applicable, be disregarded for purposes of
   determining the amount described in this Section 9(b)(ii) (the "Severance
   Payment");

        (iii)  for the remaining stated period of this Agreement after the Date
   of Termination, the Company shall arrange to provide the Executive with
   life, disability, accident and health insurance benefits substantially
   similar to those which the Executive is receiving immediately prior to the
   Notice of Termination. Benefits otherwise receivable by the Executive
   pursuant to this Section 9(b)(iii) shall be reduced to the extent comparable
   benefits are actually received by the Executive during the period from the
   Date of Termination until the expiration of the stated term of the
   Agreement, and any such benefits actually received by the Executive shall be
   reported to the Company. If the benefits provided to the Executive under
   this Section 9(b)(iii) shall result in a decrease, pursuant to subsection
   (iv) of this Section 9(b), in the Severance Payment and such benefits are
   thereafter reduced pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the
   Company shall, at the time of such reduction, pay to the Executive the
   lesser of (a) the amount of such decrease in the Severance Payment (with
   interest at the rate provided in section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code from the
   Date of Termination) or (b) the maximum amount which can be paid to the
   Executive without being, or causing any other payment to be, nondeductible
   by reason of section 28OG of the Code;

        (iv)  the Severance Payment shall be reduced by the amount of any other
   payment or the value of any benefit received or to be received by the
   Executive that, in the opinion of tax counsel ("Tax Counsel") selected by
   the Executive and acceptable to the Company's independent auditors, is
   likely to constitute a "parachute payment" under section 28OG(b)(2) of the
   Code (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan,
   agreement or arrangement with the Company or any subsidiary, any person
   whose actions result in a change of control, or any person affiliated with
   the Company or such person) unless (A) the Executive shall have effectively
   waived his receipt or enjoyment of such payment or benefit prior to the date
   of payment of the Severance Payment, (B) or in the opinion of Tax Counsel,
   the Severance Payment (in its full amount or as partially reduced under this
   Section 9(b)(iv), as the case may be) plus all other payments or benefits
   that constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of section 280(b)(2)
   of the Code are likely to be reasonable compensation for services actually
   rendered, within the meaning of section 28OG(b)(4) of the Code or are
   otherwise not likely to be subject to disallowance as a deduction by reason
   of section 28OG of the Code. The value of any noncash benefit or any
   deferred payment or benefit shall be determined by the Company's independent
   auditors in accordance with the principles of section 28OG(d)(3) and (4) of
   the Code;

                                      4
<PAGE>   9
        (v)  except to the extent that such payments and benefits would result
   (or, if paid after the Severance Payment, would have resulted), under
   subsection (iv) of this Section 9(b), in a reduction in the Severance
   Payment, (A) notwithstanding any provision of any Incentive Plan, the
   Company shall pay to the Executive a lump sum amount equal to the sum of (1)
   any incentive compensation which has been allocated or awarded to the
   Executive for a year or other measuring period preceding the Date of
   Termination but which has not yet been paid, and (2) a pro rata portion of
   the aggregate value of all contingent cash incentive compensation awards to
   the Executive for all uncompleted periods under an Incentive Plan calculated
   as to each such award by multiplying the maximum amount established for the
   Executive for such award under such Incentive Plan by a fraction the
   numerator of which is the number of months of the measuring period for such
   award elapsed prior to the Date of Termination and the denominator of which
   is the number of months in the measuring period; (B) with respect to shares
   of common stock of the Company that represent an unvested award of common
   stock of the Company for the benefit of the Executive under an Incentive
   Plan at the Date of Termination, the Executive shall receive from the
   Company with respect to each such unvested award the number of shares of
   common stock of the Company subject to such unvested award multiplied by a
   fraction the numerator of which is the number of months from the date of
   grant of such award until the Date of Termination and the denominator of
   which is the number of months from the date of grant of such award to the
   date of vesting of such award; and (C) in addition to the retirement
   benefits to which the Executive is entitled under all defined benefit plans
   in which the Executive is a participant on the Date of Termination (the
   "Retirement Plans"), the Company shall pay the Executive in one lump sum in
   cash an amount equal to the actuarial equivalent of the excess of (a) over
   (b), where (a) equals the aggregate retirement pension (determined as a
   straight life annuity) to which the Executive would have been entitled under
   the terms of the Retirement Plans, beginning at normal retirement age under
   the Plan (without regard to any amendment to the Retirement Plans made
   subsequent to the date of this Agreement, which amendment adversely affects
   in any manner the computation of the retirement benefits under the
   Retirement Plans, other than those amendments required by law to continue
   any qualification of the Retirement Plans), determined as if the Executive
   were fully vested thereunder and had accumulated (after any termination
   pursuant to Section 7 hereof) an additional period of service thereunder
   equal to the remaining term of this Agreement at the Executive's highest
   rate of earnings used in computing his retirement benefits under the
   Retirement Plans during the 12 months immediately preceding the Date of
   Termination; and where (b) equals the aggregate retirement pension
   (determined as a straight life annuity) to which the Executive is entitled
   pursuant to the provisions of the Retirement Plans, beginning at normal
   retirement age under the Plan; and for purposes of this provision,
   "actuarial equivalent" shall be determined using the same and assumptions
   utilized under the Midlantic Retirement Plan as of the date of this
   Agreement; and

        (vi)  the Company shall also pay to the Executive all legal fees and
   expenses incurred by the Executive as a result of such termination
   (including all such fees and expenses, if any, reasonably incurred in
   contesting or disputing any such termination or in seeking to obtain or
   enforce any right or benefit provided by this Agreement).

      (c)  BY COMPANY FOR CAUSE OR BY THE EXECUTIVE OTHER THAN FOR GOOD REASON.
If the Executive's employment shall be terminated by the Company for Cause or
by the Executive other than for Good Reason, then the Company shall pay the
Executive his Base Salary (at the rate in effect at the time Notice of
Termination is given) through the Date of Termination, and the Company shall
have no additional obligations to the Executive under this Agreement except as
set forth in subsection (d) of this Section 9.

      (d)  COMPENSATION PLANS. Following any termination of the Executive's
employment, the Company shall pay the Executive all unpaid amounts, if any, to
which the Executive is entitled as of the Date of Termination under any
compensation plan or program of the Company, at the time such payments are due.

      (e)  TIME OF PAYMENTS. The lump sum payments provided for in Sections
9(b)(ii) and (v) hereof shall be made not later than the fifth day following
the Date of Termination; provided, however, that if the amount of such payments
cannot be finally determined on or before such day, the Company shall pay the
Executive on such day an estimate, as determined in good faith by the Company,
of the minimum amount of such payments and shall pay the remainder of such
payments (together with interest at the rate provided in section 1274(b)(2)(B)
of the Code) as soon as the amount thereof can be determined but in no event
later than the thirtieth day after the Date of Termination. In the event that
the amount of the estimated payments exceeds the amount subsequently determined
to have been due, such excess shall constitute a loan by the Company to the
Executive, payable on the fifth day after demand by the Company (together with
interest at the rate provided in section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code).

                                      5
<PAGE>   10
     10. MITIGATION. The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount
of any payment or benefit provided for the Executive hereunder by seeking other
employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment or benefit
provided for the Executive hereunder be reduced by any compensation earned by
the Executive as the result of employment by another employer, by retirement
benefits, by offset against any amount claimed to be owed by the Executive to
the Company or the Company, or otherwise, except as is specifically provided in
Section 9(b)(iii) hereof.

     11. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION; NONCOMPETITION REQUIREMENT.

         (a)  CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. During the period of his employment
hereunder, the Executive shall not, without the written consent of the Board or
a person authorized thereby, disclose to any person, other than an employee of
the Company or one of its subsidiaries or a person to whom disclosure is
reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance by the
Executive of his duties as an executive of the Company, any material
confidential information obtained by him while in the employ of the Company or
any of its subsidiaries with respect to any of the Company's or any of its
subsidiary's products, customers, methods or future plans the disclosure of
which he knows will be materially damaging to the Company; provided, however,
that confidential information shall not include any information known generally
to the public (other than as a result of unauthorized disclosure by the
Executive) or any information of a type not otherwise considered confidential
by persons engaged in the same business or a business similar to that conducted
by the Company. For the period ending two years following the termination of
employment hereunder, the Executive shall not disclose any confidential
information of the type described above. The foregoing provisions of this
Section 11(a) shall be binding upon the Executive's heirs, successors and legal
representatives.

         (b)  NONCOMPETITION REQUIREMENT. For a period of two (2) years 
following a termination of the Executive's employment (other than a 
termination of the Executive's employment by the Executive following a breach 
of this Agreement by the Company), the Executive agrees that, without the 
prior written consent of the Company, he shall not be connected as an 
officer, employee, partner, director or otherwise with any commercial bank or 
affiliate thereof that accepts deposits in the State of New Jersey or in 
Philadelphia, Montgomery, Delaware, Chester or Bucks counties, Pennsylvania 
(the "Restricted Region") if the Executive's responsibilities will relate 
directly and primarily to the conduct of business within the Restricted 
Region: provided, however, Section 11(b) shall not preclude the Executive 
from being an executive officer or a director of a commercial bank or 
affiliate thereof to whom other persons with such direct and primary 
responsibility shall report as long as the principal operations of such 
commercial bank or affiliate are not located in the Restricted Region.

     12. SUCCESSORS; BINDING AGREEMENT.

         (a)  COMPANY'S SUCCESSORS. The Company will require any successor
(whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise)
to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to
expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to
the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such
succession had taken place. Failure of the Company to obtain such assumption
and agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a
breach of this Agreement and shall entitle the Executive to compensation from
the Company in the same amount and on the same terms as he would be entitled to
hereunder if he terminated his employment for Good Reason (whether or not he
does terminate his employment), except that for purposes of implementing the
foregoing, the date on which any such succession becomes effective shall be
deemed the Date of Termination. As used in this Agreement, "Company" shall mean
the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or
assets as aforesaid which executes and delivers the agreement provided for in
this Section 13 or which otherwise becomes bound by all the terms and
provisions of this Agreement by operation of law.

         (b)  THE EXECUTIVE'S SUCCESSORS. This Agreement and all rights of the
Executive hereunder shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the
Executive's personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators,
successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If the Executive should
die while any amounts would still be payable to him hereunder if he had
continued to live, all such amounts unless otherwise provided herein shall be
paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the Executive's devisee,
legatee, or other designee or, if there be no such designee, to the Executive's
estate.

requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

     14. MISCELLANEOUS. No provisions of this Agreement may be modified, waived
or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in
writing signed by the Executive and such officer of the Company, as may be
specifically designated by its Board of Directors or its compensation
committee. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the
other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this
Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of
similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or
subsequent time. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express
or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either
party which are not set forth expressly in this Agreement. This Agreement shall
be binding on all successors to the Company. The validity, interpretation,
construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of
the State of New Jersey without regard to its conflicts of law principles. All
references to sections of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or
the Code shall be deemed also to refer to any successor provisions to such
sections. Any payments provided for hereunder shall be paid net of any
applicable withholding required under federal, state or local law. The
obligations of the Company under Section 9 hereof shall survive the expiration
of the term of this Agreement. The compensation and benefits payable to the
Executive under this Agreement shall be in lieu of any other severance benefits
to which the Executive may otherwise be entitled upon his termination of
employment under any severance plan, program, policy or arrangement of the
Company.

     15. VALIDITY. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision or
provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and
effect.

     16. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which
together will constitute one and the same instrument.

     17. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of
the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and
supersedes all prior agreements, promises, covenants, arrangements,
communications, representations or warranties, whether oral or written, by any
officer, employee or representative of any party hereto; and any prior
agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained
herein is hereby terminated and canceled. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, this Agreement supersedes and replaces the Employment Agreement
dated as of April 23, 1991 between Midlantic Corporation and the Executive.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement on the date
first above written.

discretion, authorize the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation to act on
its behalf, except with respect to matters relating to such Chief Executive
Officer or which are required to be certified by the Committee under the Plan,
or by Code Section 162(m) or the regulations promulgated thereunder.

4. ELIGIBILITY

  Incentive Awards may be made only to a Participant who is not paid an
incentive award pursuant to the Corporation's 1994 Annual Incentive Award Plan
or any successor plan, with respect to that Award Period.

5. INCENTIVE AWARDS; TERMS OF AWARDS; PAYMENT

  5.1 No later than 90 days after the commencement of an Award Period, the
Committee shall, in its sole discretion, establish in writing an Incentive
Award Amount for each Participant for that Award Period. For this purpose, each
Participant may be identified in terms of position or title held, or base
salary paid, during that Award Period, or by such other means as the Committee
may deem appropriate. No Participant shall be assigned an Incentive Award
Amount greater than 35% of the Compensation Pool and the sum of all Incentive
Award Amounts for an Award Period shall not exceed 100% of the Compensation
Pool under any circumstances.

  5.2 As soon as practicable following the end of an Award Period, but in all
events prior to making any Incentive Awards, the Committee shall compute and
certify in writing the size of the Compensation Pool for that Award Period, and
shall determine whether any Performance Conditions established for that Award
Period were satisfied. In performing such computation, the Committee may rely
upon financial statements supplied by the Corporation's officers, provided that
the Committee believes such statements to have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.

  5.3 As soon as practicable following the Committee's completion of the
actions specified in Section 5.2, the Committee shall certify in writing the
Incentive Award, if any, to be made to each Participant for that Award Period
and shall authorize the Corporation to make such Incentive Award to each
Participant in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan.

  5.4 In the event that the Committee does not exhaust the full amount of the
Compensation Pool through the payment of Incentive Awards, the Committee may,
in its sole discretion and no later than 90 days after the commencement of an
Award Period, certify in writing that all or a portion of the remaining
Compensation Pool shall be added to the Compensation Pool for the Award Period
then commenced; provided, that the Committee shall not be authorized to direct
any such carryover if the amount in question would exceed $3 million; and,
provided further, that the Committee establishes one or more Performance
Conditions that must be achieved during the Award Period in order for such
carryover amount to be available for the payment of Incentive Awards for that
Award Period.

  5.5 The Committee may, in its sole discretion, determine not to make an
Incentive Award or reduce an Incentive Award below the applicable Incentive
Award Amount, without the consent of a Participant. Unless otherwise determined
by the Committee, no Incentive Award shall be made to a Participant unless the
Participant is employed by the Corporation or a Subsidiary as of the date of
payment.

  5.6 Incentive Awards shall be subject to applicable federal, state and local
withholding taxes and other applicable withholding in accordance with the
Corporation's payroll practices as in effect from time to time.

  5.7 The Committee, subject to such terms and conditions as it may determine,
and a Participant pursuant to any deferred compensation plan of the
Corporation, shall have the right to defer the payment of an Incentive Award,
provided, in either case, that any additional amounts credited to such deferred
payment will be based either on a reasonable rate of interest or the actual
rate of return of one or more predetermined investments.

6. TRANSFERABILITY

  Until paid to a Participant, Incentive Awards shall not be subject to the
claims of creditors and may not be assigned, alienated, transferred or
encumbered in any way other than by will or pursuant to the laws of descent and
distribution.

7. TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT

  The Board may amend, modify or terminate the Plan in any respect at any time
without the consent of the Participants.

8. EFFECTIVENESS OF PLAN AND AWARDS

  The Plan shall be void ab initio unless the Plan is approved by a vote of the
Corporation's shareholders at the first meeting of the Corporation's
shareholders following adoption of the Plan by the Board.

9. EFFECTIVE DATE; TERM OF THE PLAN

  Subject to shareholder approval pursuant to Section 8, the Plan shall be
effective as of January 1, 1996 and the first Award Period shall be fiscal year
1996. The Plan shall remain in effect until terminated by the Board pursuant to
Section 7. No Incentive Awards may be made under the Plan after its
termination, provided that termination of the Plan shall not affect any
Incentive Awards payable on or after the date of termination and such awards
shall continue to be subject to the terms of the Plan notwithstanding its
termination.

10. INDEMNIFICATION OF COMMITTEE

  In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as
Directors or as members of the Committee, each of the members of the Committee
shall be indemnified by the Corporation against the

                                      3


<PAGE>   4

reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably
incurred in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or
in connection with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them may be a
party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection
with the Plan or any Incentive Award made hereunder, and against all amounts
reasonably paid by them in settlement thereof or paid by them in satisfaction
of a judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding to the maximum extent
permitted by law.

11. GENERAL PROVISIONS

  11.1 The establishment of the Plan shall not confer upon any Participant any
legal or equitable right against the Corporation or any Subsidiary, except as
expressly provided in the Plan.

  11.2 The Plan does not constitute an inducement or consideration for the
employment of any Participant, nor is it a contract between the Corporation, or
any Subsidiary, and any Participant. Participation in the Plan shall not give a
Participant any right to be retained in the employ of the Corporation or any
Subsidiary.

  11.3 Nothing contained in this Plan shall prevent the Board or Committee from
adopting other or additional compensation arrangements, subject to shareholder
approval if such approval is required, and such arrangements may be either
generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

  11.4 The Plan shall be governed, construed and administered in accordance
with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

CORPORATE FINANCIAL REVIEW 1995 VERSUS 1994


The merger between PNC Bank Corp. and Midlantic Corporation ("Midlantic") was
completed on December 31, 1995 and accounted for as a pooling of interests.
Accordingly, all financial information has been restated as if the companies
were combined for all periods presented.

The Corporate Financial Review should be read in conjunction with the PNC Bank
Corp. and subsidiaries ("Corporation") Consolidated Financial Statements and
Statistical Information included herein.

OVERVIEW

Net income for 1995 totaled $408.1 million, or $1.19 per fully diluted share,
compared with $883.9 million, or $2.52 per fully diluted share, for 1994.
Returns on average assets and average common shareholders' equity for 1995 were
 .54 percent and 7.05 percent, respectively. The 1995 results include $380.2
million of after-tax charges recorded in connection with the Midlantic merger
and actions taken to reposition the Corporation's balance sheet. Excluding
these charges, 1995 earnings were $788.3 million, or $2.29 per fully diluted
share. On this basis, returns on average assets and average common
shareholders' equity were 1.05 percent and 13.67 percent, respectively.

The financial results for 1995 include the impact of several
major initiatives. The Midlantic and Chemical Bank New Jersey
("Chemical") transactions moved the Corporation into the second
and third largest retail deposit market share positions in
Philadelphia and New Jersey, respectively. The in-market nature
of these transactions is expected to generate substantial economies
by reducing costs associated with overlapping and duplicative
operations and provide opportunities to enhance revenues
through marketing of the Corporation's products and services
to a new customer base. The acquisitions also provided a more
stable consumer deposit funding base, reducing the need for
wholesale funding, and added attractive middle-market and
consumer assets.

The Corporation accelerated and substantially completed the
balance sheet repositioning begun in the latter half of 1994.
The securities portfolio and related reliance on wholesale
funding were significantly reduced. At year-end 1995,
securities represented 23.7 percent of earning assets compared
with 33.9 percent at the end of 1994. Wholesale funding,
which includes brokered and foreign deposits, borrowed funds
and certain notes and debentures, was reduced to 28.2 percent
of total sources of funds compared with 35.9 percent a year
ago. In addition, the Corporation terminated $15.1 billion
notional value of financial derivative contracts.

Asset management capabilities were strengthened with the
acquisition of BlackRock Financial Management, L.P.
("BlackRock"), which brought extensive fixed-income
investment management capabilities to the Corporation.

The Corporation continued to invest in operating platforms
and alternative retail delivery systems. The National Financial
Services Center, a state-of-the-art telebanking center, strengthened
the Corporation's ability to deliver cost-effective services and
products. In addition, strategic alliances designed to leverage
delivery capabilities were implemented in the credit card and
merchant processing businesses. In January 1996, an agreement
was entered into with the American Automobile Association to
offer financial services and products to the organization's 34
million members. These services and products will be offered
nationally and leverage the Corporation's alternative delivery
capabilities.

MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

On December 31, 1995, Midlantic, a bank holding company
with $13.6 billion in assets, merged with the Corporation.
Each outstanding share of Midlantic common stock was
converted into 2.05 shares of the Corporation's common
stock. Approximately 112 million shares of the Corporation's
common stock were issued in connection with the merger. The
transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests.

On October 6, 1995, the Corporation acquired Chemical's
franchise in southern and central New Jersey with total assets of
$3.2 billion and retail core deposits of $2.7 billion. No 
nonperforming assets were acquired. The Corporation paid 
$492 million in cash and the transaction was accounted for 
under the purchase method.

In February 1995, the Corporation acquired BlackRock, a
New York-based, fixed-income investment management firm
with approximately $25 billion in assets under management at
closing. The Corporation paid $71 million in cash and issued
$169 million of unsecured notes and accounted for the
transaction under the purchase method.

NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income is the difference
between interest income and interest expense. The level and
volatility of interest rates affect interest received or paid on
assets, liabilities and off-balance-sheet financial instruments
and, as a result, impact net interest income.

</TABLE>

Taxable-equivalent net interest income totaled $2.2 billion in
1995 compared with $2.5 billion a year earlier. The net
interest margin, the ratio of taxable-equivalent net interest
income to average earning assets, was 3.15 percent compared
with 3.64 percent in 1994. In the year-to-year comparison,
interest income increased due to higher loan volume and
yields, partially offset by a reduction in the securities
portfolio. The growth in interest income was offset by higher
expense on deposits and borrowings, which was primarily due
to higher interest rates. During 1995, net interest income and
margin were adversely impacted by interest rate swaps and
caps. During the fourth quarter of 1995, the Corporation
terminated $5.1 billion notional value of pay-fixed interest
rate swaps and $5.5 billion notional value of interest rate caps.
Such actions substantially reduced the adverse impact of these
instruments on net interest income and margin. Management
expects these actions to favorably impact net interest income
and margin in 1996 compared with 1995.

totaled $6.0 million in 1995 compared with $83.5 million in
1994 reflecting improved asset quality during the year. Based
on the current risk profile of the loan portfolio, management
does not expect to record a provision for credit losses during
1996. Should the risk profile of the loan portfolio or the
economy deteriorate, asset quality may be adversely impacted
and a provision for credit losses may be required.

NONINTEREST INCOME Noninterest income before net securities losses
totaled $1.2 billion in 1995, a 5.1 percent increase compared
with the prior year. Excluding net securities losses, noninterest
income was 36.2 percent of total revenue in 1995 compared
with 31.8 percent a year earlier.

</TABLE>

At December 31, 1995, assets under administration totaled
$282 billion, of which $96 billion were discretionary. The
comparable amounts at year-end 1994 were $221 billion and
$57 billion, respectively. The BlackRock acquisition added
approximately $25 billion of discretionary assets at closing.

Service fees increased $4.9 million in 1995 compared with 
a year ago. Deposit services revenue declined as
corporate customers used compensating balances in lieu of
paying service charges. The decline in credit card and
merchant services fees reflects the impact of agreements with
third parties to provide certain administrative, marketing, data
processing and customer support services for the
Corporation's credit card business. Excluding the effect of
these agreements, credit card and merchant services fees
increased $5.8 million or 9.7 percent in the year-to-year
comparison.

During 1995, corporate finance fees increased 6.0 percent
reflecting higher syndication volume. Brokerage fee income
increased 23.5 percent due to higher transaction volumes.

Consumer fee income, which includes revenue from
automated teller machines ("ATM"), safe deposit services, and
other sources, increased $8.1 million, or 18.2 percent. The
increase was primarily due to higher ATM usage. Insurance
revenue increased 13.6 percent due to higher annuity sales.

During 1995, mortgage banking revenue decreased $11.9
million to $186.6 million primarily due to lower gains from
servicing sales. Marketing gains increased due to a change in
the method of accounting for the value of originated mortgage
servicing rights ("MSR"). In 1995, the Corporation adopted
new accounting guidance which provides for the immediate
recognition of the value of originated MSR. In 1995, the
Corporation recorded gains from originated MSR totaling
$37.1 million.

CORPORATE FINANCIAL REVIEW 1995 VERSUS 1994


During 1995, other income totaled $138.7 million, a decrease
of $18.2 million compared with the prior year. A gain of
$11.2 million, included in other noninterest income, from
instruments used to hedge the economic value of MSR was
offset by a $10.9 million MSR impairment charge included in
noninterest expense. Excluding the mortgage-related hedge
gain, other income decreased $29.4 million, primarily due to
nonrecurring gains in 1994 from Midlantic's sales of assets
held for accelerated disposition.

Net securities losses totaled $279.7 million in 1995 and were
primarily associated with actions taken in the fourth quarter of
1995 to accelerate the Corporation's balance sheet
repositioning begun in the latter half of 1994. Approximately
$6.0 billion of securities were sold at a loss of $61.3 million.
In connection with the sales, losses totaling $228.2 million
were recognized on terminated pay-fixed interest rate swaps
designated to such securities. During 1994, net securities
losses totaled $141.6 million.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE Noninterest expense before special
charges increased .9 percent, or $19.0 million, in 1995. The
increase reflects lower deposit insurance premiums, successful
acquisition integration and continued emphasis on developing
alternative lower-cost delivery systems and rationalizing the
traditional branch delivery system. Excluding the impact of
acquisitions, special charges and the benefit of lower deposit
insurance premiums, noninterest expense decreased 1.8
percent in the comparison.

</TABLE>

Staff expense increased 2.3 percent in the year-to-year
comparison due to acquisitions. Excluding acquisitions, staff
expense decreased 2.1 percent.

Amortization of intangible assets and MSR increased $28.4
million due to the BlackRock and Chemical acquisitions and
MSR impairment.

The decline in Federal deposit insurance reflects a reduction in
the Bank Insurance Fund premium. Approximately $5.3
billion of the Corporation's deposits insured by the Savings
Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") continue to be assessed
a higher rate. There are several proposals for legislative action
to address recapitalization of the SAIF including a significant
one-time assessment. Management currently cannot predict
the outcome of these proposals or the effect, if any, on the
Corporation.

In connection with the Midlantic merger, the Corporation
recorded special charges of $260 million consisting of $89
million to eliminate duplicate operations and facilities, $42
million for employee severance and related costs, $49 million
for professional services and various other costs incidental to
the merger and $80 million for termination of an interest rate
cap position.

In 1994, the Corporation recorded special charges totaling $48
million in connection with the consolidation of seven
telebanking centers and rationalization of retail delivery
systems.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE Income tax expense totaled $219.0
million in 1995 compared with $318.5 million in 1994. The
effective tax rates were 34.9 percent and 26.3 percent in 1995
and 1994, respectively. The lower effective tax rate in 1994
was primarily due to a $106.8 million benefit from the
realization of Midlantic's previously unrecognized deferred
tax assets. Income tax expense for 1995 included a $15.0
million writedown of state deferred tax assets related to the
Midlantic merger.

</TABLE>

Total assets and earning assets were $73.4 billion and $66.8
billion, respectively, at December 31, 1995 compared with
$77.5 billion and $69.8 billion at year-end 1994. The declines
reflect the securities portfolio downsizing partially offset by
loan growth. The securities portfolio declined $7.8 billion to
$15.8 billion at December 31, 1995, and loans totaled $48.7
billion at year-end 1995, compared with $44.0 billion a year
ago.

LOANS During 1995, loans increased $4.6 billion, or 10.5
percent. The ratio of loans to earning assets increased to 72.9
percent at year-end 1995 compared with 63.1 percent a year
ago. Excluding purchase acquisitions, average loans increased
4.8 percent, primarily due to consumer and residential
mortgage loan growth. The Corporation's focus with respect to
the loan portfolio was to increase the proportion of such loans
to total loans and to change the composition to improve
overall returns on invested capital.

</TABLE>

Consumer loan outstandings increased 14.2 percent to $13.5
billion at December 31, 1995. The growth in consumer loans
was primarily due to initiatives to increase the Corporation's
credit card business and the impact of acquisitions. These
increases were partially offset by reductions in the indirect
automobile portfolio.

Residential mortgages increased 19.9 percent. As part of the
mortgage banking business, the Corporation retained for
portfolio certain originated mortgages, generally adjustable
rate mortgages with fixed initial terms of three, five, seven or
ten years. The remainder of originations were securitized and
sold, generally with servicing rights retained.

Excluding the impact of initiatives to reduce certain low-
spread loans, total commercial loan outstandings increased
approximately $2.0 billion from year-end 1994.

CORPORATE FINANCIAL REVIEW 1995 VERSUS 1994

Commercial real estate exposure decreased slightly since year-
end 1994. Medium-term financings and construction and
development loans primarily consist of retail and office, multi-
family, hotel/motel and residential projects. Approximately 82
percent of total commercial real estate outstandings are
located in the Corporation's primary markets with the
remaining projects geographically dispersed throughout the
United States.

Unfunded commitments represent agreements to lend funds
under specified terms provided no violations of specified
contractual conditions exist. Most commercial commitments
expire unfunded and, therefore, cash requirements are
substantially less than the total commitment. Unfunded
commitments are net of participations and syndications.
Growth in commercial unfunded commitments during 1995
was broad based and totaled $3.5 billion, or 16.8 percent. In
addition, the Corporation had letters of credit outstanding
totaling $4.5 billion and $4.6 billion at December 31, 1995
and December 31, 1994, respectively, primarily consisting of
standby letters of credit.

SECURITIES During 1995, the Corporation reduced the size of
the securities portfolio relative to earning assets. The
securities portfolio was reduced by $7.8 billion to $15.8
billion at December 31, 1995, and represented 23.7 percent of
earning assets, compared with 33.9 percent a year ago. At
year-end 1995, all securities were classified as available for 
sale. Securities classified as available for sale may be sold as
part of the overall asset/liability management process.
Realized gains and losses resulting from such sales would be
reflected in the results of operations and would include the fair
value of associated financial derivatives.

In connection with implementing new accounting guidance
issued in November 1995, the Corporation reassessed the
classifications of investment securities. All securities
previously classified as held to maturity were reclassified to
the available-for-sale portfolio. The reclassifications were
accounted for at fair value and included the fair value of
associated financial derivatives.

Subsequent to reclassifying the securities portfolio, to
accelerate the balance sheet repositioning begun in the latter
half of 1994, the Corporation sold $1.9 billion of U.S.
Treasury securities and $4.1 billion of collateralized mortgage
obligations at a loss of $61.3 million. In connection with the
sales, losses totaling  $228.2 million were recognized on
terminated pay-fixed interest rate swaps with a notional value
of $5.1 billion that were designated to such securities.

At December 31, 1995, the securities portfolio included $6.2
billion of collateralized mortgage obligations and $2.4 billion
of mortgage-backed securities. The characteristics of these
investments include principal guarantees, primarily by U.S.
Government agencies, and marketability. Expected lives of
such securities can vary as interest rates change. In a declining
interest rate environment, prepayments on the underlying
mortgages may accelerate and, therefore, shorten the
expected lives. Conversely, expected lives would lengthen in a
rising interest rate environment. The Corporation monitors the
impact of this risk through the use of an income simulation
model as part of the asset/liability management process.

Other U.S. Government agencies securities and asset-backed
private placements represent AAA-rated, variable-rate
instruments. The interest rates on these instruments float with
various indices and are limited by periodic and maximum
caps. These securities have an initial specified term. At the
end of the initial term the maturity may be extended or the
security may be called at the option of the issuer. Other
mortgage-related debt securities consist primarily of private
label collateralized mortgage obligations.

CORPORATE FINANCIAL REVIEW 1995 VERSUS 1994


FUNDING SOURCES During 1995, the use of wholesale funding,
which includes brokered and foreign deposits, borrowed funds
and certain notes and debentures, was reduced. At December
31, 1995, the ratio of wholesale funding to total sources of
funds was 28.2 percent compared with 35.9 percent a year
ago. The ratio of deposits to total sources of funds increased to
63.9 percent compared with 59.1 percent a year ago. The
composition of the Corporation's funding sources will vary
depending on management's evaluation of the most cost-
effective funding alternatives.

DEPOSITS During 1995, total deposits increased $1.1 billion, or
2.4 percent. A $2.5 billion increase in time deposits was partially 
offset by a $1.5 billion decrease in foreign deposits. The Chemical
acquisition added $2.7 billion of deposits in the fourth quarter
of 1995.

Brokered deposits totaled $2.3 billion at December 31, 1995
compared with $2.8 billion at December 31, 1994. Retail
brokered deposits, which are issued or participated-out by
brokers in denominations of $100,000 or less, represented
77.8 percent of total brokered deposits at December 31, 1995
compared with 76.8 percent at year-end 1994.

BORROWED FUNDS AND NOTES AND DEBENTURES Total borrowed
funds and notes and debentures decreased $5.3 billion from
year-end 1994 primarily due to the balance sheet
repositioning.

Management believes the Corporation has sufficient liquidity
to meet its obligations to customers, debtholders and others.
The impact of maturing liabilities is reflected in the income
simulation model used in the Corporation's overall
asset/liability management process.

CAPITAL Acquisition capability, funding alternatives, new
business activities, deposit insurance costs, and the level and
nature of expanded regulatory oversight depend, in large part,
on a financial institution's capital strength. The Corporation
manages its capital position primarily through the issuance of
debt and equity instruments, treasury stock activities, dividend
policies and retained earnings.

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. To be
classified as well capitalized, regulators require capital ratios
of 6.00 percent for Tier I, 10.00 percent for total risk-based
and 5.00 percent for leverage. At December 31, 1995, the
Corporation and each of its bank affiliates were classified as
well capitalized. Tier I risk-based capital declined during 1995
primarily due to an increase in acquisition-related intangibles.

During 1995, the Corporation repurchased 6.5 million common shares
pursuant to a stock repurchase plan authorized by the board of
directors in January 1995. The Corporation has not
repurchased any shares since the initiation of the Midlantic
merger due to constraints associated with the pooling of
interests method of accounting. Future share repurchases, if
any, are dependent on a number of additional factors
including capital adequacy, level of future earnings, balance
sheet growth and alternative capital reinvestment
opportunities.

FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES

FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES The Corporation uses a variety of off-
balance-sheet financial derivatives as part of its overall
interest rate risk management process and to manage risk
associated with mortgage banking activities.

During 1995, the notional value of financial derivatives was
reduced by $9.8 billion. In connection with asset and liability
management objectives, the Corporation terminated $4.6
billion notional value of receive-fixed index amortizing
interest rate swaps and $5.1 billion notional value pay-fixed
interest rate swaps. In connection with the Midlantic merger,
the Corporation terminated a $5.5 billion notional value
interest rate cap position that reduced exposure to higher
interest rates within a specified range. The terminated caps
were replaced with contracts that reduce exposure to rates
above a specified rate without limitation.

CORPORATE FINANCIAL REVIEW 1995 VERSUS 1994


Financial derivatives involve, to varying degrees, interest rate
and credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the
balance sheet, but less than the notional amount of the
contract. For interest rate swaps, caps and floors, only periodic
cash payments and, with respect to caps and floors, premiums,
are exchanged; therefore, cash requirements and exposure to
credit risk are significantly less than the notional value. The
Corporation manages these risks as part of its asset/liability
management process and through the Corporation's credit
policies and procedures. The Corporation seeks to minimize
credit risk by entering into transactions with only a select
number of high-quality institutions, establishing credit limits,
requiring bilateral-netting agreements, and in certain
instances, segregated collateral. At December 31, 1995, credit
exposure related to interest rate swaps and caps totaled $32.7
million.

Interest rate swaps are agreements to exchange fixed and
floating interest rate payments calculated on a notional
principal amount. The floating rate is based on a money
market index, primarily short-term LIBOR indices. The
notional values of receive-fixed index amortizing swaps
amortize on predetermined dates and in predetermined
amounts based on market movements of the designated index.
Basis swaps are agreements under which both the receive and
pay portion of the contract are based on a variable index. The
Corporation's swaps do not contain leverage or any similar
features. For interest rate risk management purposes, the
Corporation uses interest rate swaps to convert fixed-rate
assets or liabilities to floating-rate instruments, convert
floating-rate assets or liabilities to fixed-rate instruments, or
convert floating-rate instruments from one index to another.

Interest rate caps and floors are agreements where, for a fee,
the counterparty agrees to pay the Corporation the amount, if
any, by which a specified market interest rate exceeds or is
less than a defined rate applied to a notional amount. These
contracts can also include a contractually specified limit of
such rate differentials under which payment is required. In
connection with interest rate risk management activities,
interest rate caps and floors are used to convert fixed-rate
assets or liabilities to variable-rate instruments or convert
variable-rate assets or liabilities to fixed-rate instruments
above or below contractually specified rates.

In connection with mortgage banking activities, the
Corporation uses interest rate swaps and floors and other
financial instruments primarily to hedge the economic value
of MSR.

Forward contracts provide for the delivery of financial
instruments at a specified future date and at a specified price
or yield. The Corporation uses forward contracts to manage
risk positions associated with certain mortgage banking
activities. Forward contracts are traded in over-the-counter
markets and do not have standardized terms. Counterparties to
the Corporation's forward contracts are primarily U.S.
Government agencies and brokers and dealers in mortgage-
backed securities. In the event the counterparty is unable to
meet its contractual obligations, the Corporation may be
exposed to selling or purchasing mortgage loans at prevailing
market prices. Substantially all forward contracts mature
within 90 days of origination.

The following table sets forth the maturity distribution and
weighted average interest rates of financial derivatives used
for interest rate risk management. The expected maturity
distribution of receive-fixed index amortizing swaps is based
on implied forward rates. Weighted average interest rates paid
or received represent contractual interest rates in effect on
December 31, 1995 and expected rates based on implied
forward rates.

The expected weighted average maturity of receive-fixed
index amortizing swaps shortened to 7 months at December
31, 1995, compared with 2 years and 10 months at year-end
1994, reflecting the impact of terminations, amortization and
lower interest rates. Should interest rates increase, the maturity
of such swaps would extend. Subsequent to year-end 1995, the
Corporation terminated $2.1 billion of receive-fixed index
amortizing swaps resulting in a loss of $5.3 million. The loss
was deferred and will be amortized over the remaining life of
the contracts.

Interest rate caps with a notional value of $5.5 billion require the
counterparty to pay the Corporation the excess, if any, of 3-month LIBOR over
the specified cap rate. At December 31, 1995, 3-month LIBOR was 5.63 percent
and the specified cap rate was 6.50 percent.

The floating rate portion of interest rate contracts is based on money-market
indices. As a percent of notional value, 71 percent were based on 3-month
LIBOR, 19 percent on 1-month LIBOR and the remainder on other short-term
indices.

Interest rate caps with a notional value of $5.5 billion require the
counterparty to pay the Corporation the excess, if any, of 3-month LIBOR over
the specified cap rate. At December 31, 1995, 3-month LIBOR was 5.63 percent
and the specified cap rate was 6.50 percent

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 services
institution. Designations, assignments and allocations may
change from time to time as the management accounting
system is enhanced and business or product lines change.

In 1995, the Corporation realigned its line of business
management structure along customer segments. The principal
change was segregating the trust business, previously
managed separately, into the corporate and consumer banking
organizations. In addition, consistent with the Corporation's
strategic focus and balance sheet realignment, asset/liability
management has been redefined as a support function for the
core lines of business. Results for 1994 are presented on a
basis consistent with this new management reporting structure.

For management reporting purposes, the Corporation has
designated five lines of business: Consumer Banking,
Corporate Banking, Real Estate Banking, Mortgage Banking
and Asset Management. The financial results presented in this
section reflect each line of business as if it operated on a
stand-alone basis. Securities or borrowings, and related
interest rate spread, have been assigned to each line of
business based on its net asset or liability position. In 1995,
Consumer Banking was a generator of funds and, accordingly,
was assigned securities, while the other lines of business
received an assignment of borrowings as net asset generators.
An assignment of securities is accompanied by an assignment
of equity in accordance with the methodology described
below. The interest rate spread on the remaining securities, the
impact of financial derivatives used for interest rate risk
management and securities transactions are excluded from line
of business results and are reported separately in asset/liability
management activities.

Capital is assigned to each business unit based on
management's assessment of inherent risks and equity levels at
independent companies that provide similar products and
services. Capital assignments are not equivalent to regulatory
capital guidelines and the total amount assigned may vary
from consolidated shareholders' equity.

After-tax profit margin represents earnings expressed as a
percentage of revenue. The overhead ratio is the percentage of
noninterest expense to revenue. For purposes of these ratio
computations, revenue includes net interest income on a fully
taxable-equivalent basis and noninterest income.

Total earnings contributed by the lines of business were $820
million in 1995 compared with $894 million in 1994. The
decline primarily resulted from an increase in Corporate
Banking's allocated provision for credit losses which was a
credit in the prior year. Line of business earnings differed
from reported consolidated net income in both years due to
asset/liability management activities, differences between
specific reserve allocations to the lines of business and the
consolidated provision for credit losses, special charges and
certain unallocated revenues and expenses. The decline in
earnings from asset/liability management activities was
primarily due to actions taken to reposition the balance sheet.

CORPORATE FINANCIAL REVIEW 1995 VERSUS 1994


CONSUMER BANKING Consumer Banking provides lending,
deposit, personal trust, brokerage, investment, payment
system access and other financial services to individuals and
small businesses. Services are provided through a network of
community banking offices, alternative delivery systems such
as the National Financial Services Center and ATMs and
regional banking centers offering a wide array of products at
one location. Consumer Banking includes: Private Banking--
affluent consumers and charitable organizations with
specialized banking requirements; and Community Banking--
small business customers having annual sales of up to $5
million and all other consumers who use traditional branch
and direct banking services.

The earnings contribution from Consumer Banking increased
to 51 percent in 1995 from 43 percent a year ago. Earnings
from Private Banking increased in 1995 as the benefit from
loan growth, new trust business and higher brokerage fees
more than offset expense growth from marketing activities in
this sector. Community Banking earnings increased in 1995 as
the result of higher net interest income associated with loan
growth and a $28 million pretax gain on the sale of certain
branches partially offset by expenses associated with
establishing the National Financial Services Center.

CORPORATE BANKING Corporate Banking provides traditional and
asset-based financing, liquidity and treasury management,
corporate and employee benefit trust, capital markets, direct
investment, leasing and other financial services to businesses
and governmental entities. It serves customers within the
Corporation's primary markets, as well as from a network of
offices located in major U.S. cities. Corporate Banking
includes: Large Corporate -- customers having annual sales of
more than $250 million; Middle Market -- customers with
annual sales of $5 million to $250 million and those in certain
specialized industries such as communications, health care,
natural resources, metals, public finance, financial services
and automobile dealer finance; and Equity Management --
private equity investments.


Corporate Banking provided 29 percent of line of business
earnings in 1995 compared with 34 percent in 1994. Large
Corporate earnings declined in the comparison due to a
decrease in average loans and the impact of a $15 million
pretax benefit recorded in 1994 from resolution of a problem
asset. Average loans declined primarily due to initiatives to
reduce certain low-spread loans. Middle Market earnings
declined as the benefit of an increase in average loans was
more than offset by an increase in the allocated provision for
credit losses and narrower spreads on loans. A provision was
allocated in 1995 primarily due to loan growth compared with
a credit provision in 1994 that resulted from a significant
reduction of problem assets. The contribution from Equity
Management declined in 1995 as a result of lower venture
capital income.

REAL ESTATE BANKING Real Estate Banking provides lending,
deposit, treasury management, syndication, commercial
mortgage-backed securitizations and other noncredit services
to small, middle market and large customers. Real Estate
Banking services are provided to customers seeking short- 
and intermediate-term credit for construction, acquisition and
holding of commercial or residential real estate projects.

Real Estate Banking provided 10 percent of line of business
earnings in 1995 compared with 12 percent in 1994. Earnings
declined in the comparison due to lower loan volume and
nonrecurring gains in 1994 on Midlantic's sales of assets held
for accelerated disposition.

MORTGAGE BANKING Mortgage Banking activities include
acquisition, origination, securitization and servicing of
residential mortgages, as well as retention of selected loans in
the portfolio.

Mortgage Banking contributed 6 percent of line of business
earnings in 1995 compared with 8 percent a year ago.
Mortgage Banking continued to operate in a competitive
environment characterized by significantly reduced loan
origination volumes. Earnings declined in 1995 as the benefit
of an increase in portfolio loans was more than offset by
narrower loan spreads and lower gains from sales of servicing.

During 1995, the Corporation funded $5.4 billion of
residential mortgages of which 81 percent represented new
financing. The comparable amounts were $6.4 billion and 78
percent, respectively, in 1994. At December 31, 1995, the
Corporation's mortgage servicing portfolio totaled $37.3
billion, had a weighted-average coupon rate of 7.98 percent
and an estimated fair value of $419 million. The servicing
portfolio included $25.1 billion serviced for others with a
MSR carrying value of $268 million. If interest rates decline
and the rate of prepayment increases, the underlying servicing
fee income stream and related MSR fair value would be
reduced. The Corporation seeks to manage this risk by using
certain off-balance-sheet financial derivatives and on-balance-
sheet instruments whose values move in the opposite direction
of MSR value changes. A gain of $11.2 million, included in
noninterest income, from instruments used to hedge the
economic value of MSR was offset by a $10.9 million MSR
impairment charge included in noninterest expense.

ASSET MANAGEMENT Asset Management provides trust and

Asset Management contributed 4 percent of line of business
earnings in 1995 compared with 3 percent a year ago. Asset
Management earnings increased due to the impact of
BlackRock, new business and an increase in the value of
managed assets.

During 1995, assets under administration increased by $60.9
billion to $282.4 billion at December 31, 1995. The
BlackRock acquisition added approximately $25 billion in
discretionary assets, including $15 billion of institutional
funds and $10 billion of mutual funds. At year-end 1995, the
composition of discretionary assets under administration was
47 percent fixed income, 27 percent money market, 24 percent
equity and 2 percent other.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Corporation's ordinary course of business involves
varying degrees of risk taking, the most significant of which
are credit, liquidity and interest rate risk. To manage these
risks, the Corporation has risk management processes
designed to provide for risk identification, measurement,
monitoring and control.

CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT Credit risk represents the possibility
that a customer or counterparty may not perform in
accordance with contractual terms. Credit risk is inherent in
the financial services business and results from extending
credit to customers, purchasing securities, and entering into
certain off-balance-sheet financial derivative transactions. 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.

Credit Administration, which includes credit policy, loan
review and loan workout, manages and monitors credit risk by
promulgating and enforcing uniform credit policies 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 used in extending credit.

To support 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 above certain limits or that
involve exceptions to credit policies require additional
corporate approvals.

NONPERFORMING ASSETS During 1995, nonperforming assets
declined $221 million reflecting continued improvement in
asset quality. The following tables outline nonperforming assets
by category and set forth the changes in nonperforming assets
during 1995 and 1994.

</TABLE>


Loans not included in 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 $176 million at
December 31, 1995.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES In determining the adequacy of the
allowance for credit losses, the Corporation allocates reserves
to specific problem loans based on discounted cash flow
analyses or collateral valuations for impaired loans and to
pools of watchlist and non-watchlist loans. The allocations to
pools of loans are developed by risk rating and industry
classifications 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,
industry competition and consolidation, and the impact of
government regulation. Consumer loan allocations are based
on historical loss experience adjusted for portfolio activity and
current economic conditions.

The allowance for credit losses totaled $1.3 billion at
December 31, 1995 compared with $1.4 billion at December
31, 1994. The allowance as a percentage of period-end loans
and nonperforming loans was 2.59 percent and 351.7 percent,
respectively, at December 31, 1995. The comparable year-end
1994 amounts were 3.07 percent and

                                       40

239.3 percent, respectively. Net charge-offs were .29 percent of total 
loans in 1995 compared with .40 percent in 1994. Management
expects net charge-offs to increase modestly in 1996.

LIQUIDITY Liquidity represents an institution's ability to
generate cash or otherwise obtain funds at reasonable rates to
satisfy commitments to borrowers and demands of depositors
and debtholders, and invest in strategic initiatives. Liquidity
risk represents the likelihood the Corporation would be unable
to generate cash or otherwise obtain funds at reasonable rates
to satisfy commitments to borrowers, as well as the
obligations to 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
through direct borrowing or securitization of assets such as
automobile and credit card loans.

During 1995, cash and due from banks increased $267 million
to $3.7 billion compared with an increase of $882 million
during the prior year. Net cash provided by operating
activities decreased $718 million in the comparison, primarily
due to an increase in loans held for sale associated with the
Corporation's mortgage banking activities. Cash provided by
investing activities increased to $7.0 billion compared with
$1.3 billion used a year ago reflecting the Corporation's
reduction of the securities portfolio. Net cash used by
financing activities totaled $7.9 billion in 1995 compared with
$311 million provided a year earlier as the Corporation
reduced wholesale liabilities.

Liquid assets consist of cash and due from banks, short-term
investments, loans held for sale and securities available for
sale. At December 31, 1995, such assets totaled $21.8 billion
of which $7.6 billion was pledged as collateral. Liquidity is
also provided by residential mortgages which may be used as
collateral for funds obtained through the Federal Home Loan
Bank system. At December 31, 1995, approximately $5.3
billion of residential mortgages were available as collateral for
borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank system. The
reduction in the securities portfolio and related wholesale
funding sources is not expected to materially affect overall
liquidity.

Liquidity for the parent company and its affiliates is also
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, 1995, the Corporation had available $140
million of debt, $300 million of preferred stock and $350
million of securities that may be issued as either debt or
preferred stock. In addition, the Corporation had a $300
million unused committed line of credit. Funds obtained from
any of these sources can be used for both bank and nonbank
activities.

Management believes the Corporation has sufficient liquidity
to meet its current obligations to customers, debtholders and
others. The impact of replacing liabilities is reflected in the
income simulation model used in the Corporation's overall
asset/liability management process.

INTEREST RATE RISK Interest rate risk arises primarily through the
Corporation's normal business activities of extending loans and
taking deposits. Many factors, including economic and financial
conditions, general movements in market interest rates, and
consumer preferences, affect the spread between interest earned
on assets and interest paid on liabilities. Financial derivatives,
primarily interest rate swaps, caps and floors, are used to alter
the interest rate characteristics of assets and liabilities. For
example, receive-fixed interest rate swaps effectively convert
variable-rate assets to fixed-rate assets.

In managing interest rate risk, the Corporation seeks to
minimize the reliance on a particular interest rate scenario as a
source of earnings. Accordingly, wholesale activities,
including securities, funding, financial derivatives and capital
markets activities, are used in managing core business
exposures within specified guidelines. Interest rate risk is
centrally managed by asset and liability (A&L) management.
Senior management and Board of Directors' committees
oversee A&L management and periodically review interest
rate risk exposures.

CORPORATE FINANCIAL REVIEW 1995 VERSUS 1994
        

A number of measures are used to monitor and manage
interest rate risk, including income simulation and interest
sensitivity (gap) analyses. In addition, the Corporation is in
the process of developing longer-term measures of interest
rate sensitivity including duration of equity and equity at risk.
Such models are designed to estimate the impact on the value
of equity resulting from changes in interest rates and
supplement the simulation model and gap analyses.

An income simulation model is the primary tool used to assess
the direction and magnitude of changes in net interest income
resulting from changes in interest rates. Key assumptions
employed in the model include prepayment speeds on
mortgage-related assets, cash flows and maturities of financial
instruments, changes in market conditions, loan volumes and
pricing, deposit sensitivity, customer preferences, and
management's financial and capital plans. These assumptions
are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model can not
precisely estimate net interest income or precisely predict the
impact of higher or lower interest rates on net interest income.

The Corporation's guidelines provide that net interest income
should not decrease by more than 3 percent if interest rates
gradually increase or decrease from current rates by 100 basis
points over a twelve month period. At December 31, 1995,
based on the results of the simulation model, the Corporation
was within these guidelines. Actual results will differ from
simulated results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of
interest rate changes and changes in market conditions and
management strategies, among other factors.

Additional interest rate scenarios are modeled to address a
wider range of rate movement, yield curve, term structure and
basis risk exposures. Depending on market conditions and
other inherent risks, these scenarios may be modeled more or
less frequently. Such analyses are used as supplemental
measurements only and limits have not been established.

The Corporation also employs interest sensitivity (gap)
analysis to assess interest rate risk. A 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 Corporation's limit for the cumulative one-year
gap position is 10 percent. A cumulative asset-sensitive gap
position indicates assets are expected to reprice more quickly
than liabilities. Alternatively, a cumulative liability-sensitive
gap position indicates liabilities are expected to reprice more
quickly than assets. The cumulative one-year gap position was
7.0 percent asset sensitive at December 31, 1995. During
January 1996, to reduce exposure to declining rates, the
Corporation added receive-fixed interest rate swaps with a
term of two years which converted assets from variable rates
to fixed rates. As a result, the asset sensitivity of the
cumulative one-year gap position was reduced to 3.8 percent.
Gap analysis alone does not accurately measure the magnitude
of changes in net interest income since changes in interest
rates over time do not impact all categories of assets, liabilities
and off-balance-sheet instruments equally or simultaneously.

CORPORATE FINANCIAL REVIEW 1994 VERSUS 1993


OVERVIEW

Net income for 1994 was $883.9 million, or $2.52 per fully
diluted share, compared with $898.5 million, or $2.60 per
share, for 1993. Return on average assets and return on
average common shareholders' equity were 1.19 percent and
16.09 percent, respectively, in 1994 compared with 1.40
percent and 18.55 percent, respectively, in 1993.

Effective January 1, 1994, the Corporation adopted Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 112,
"Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits." SFAS
No. 112 requires accrual of a liability for benefits to be paid to
former or inactive employees after employment, but before
retirement. The cumulative effect of the change in accounting
decreased net income by $7.5 million or, $.02 per fully diluted
share.

Effective January 1, 1993, the Corporation adopted SFAS No.
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," and changed its
accounting method for certain intangible assets. The combined
effect of these changes increased net income by $19.6 million,
or $.06 per fully diluted share.

Income before the cumulative effect of the changes in
accounting principles was $891.5 million or $2.54 per fully
diluted share, in 1994 compared with $878.9, or $2.54 per fully
diluted share, in 1993.


MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

During 1994, the Corporation acquired First Eastern Corp.,
Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, and United Federal Bancorp,
Inc., State College, Pennsylvania. The acquisitions added
assets and deposits of $2.8 billion and $2.4 billion,
respectively.

In November 1993, the Corporation acquired PNC Mortgage.
This acquisition added mortgage-related assets of $7.6 billion
and a mortgage servicing portfolio totaling $27 billion,
including $21 billion serviced for others. In June 1994, the
Corporation purchased a $10 billion residential mortgage
servicing portfolio from the Associates Corporation of North
America.


INCOME STATEMENT REVIEW

During 1994, taxable-equivalent net interest income
represented 68.2 percent of total revenue before net securities
transactions compared with 71.8 percent in 1993. Noninterest
income before net securities transactions represented 31.8
percent of total revenue in 1994 and 28.2 percent in 1993.

CORPORATE FINANCIAL REVIEW 1994 VERSUS 1993


The 1994 net interest margin narrowed to 3.64 percent
compared with 3.99 percent in 1993 as deposit and
borrowings costs increased more rapidly than loan yields. In
addition, the narrower margin reflects the impact of actions
begun in the latter half of 1994 to reposition the balance sheet
and to reduce interest rate sensitivity.

PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES The provision for credit losses was
$83.5 million and $350.2 million in 1994 and 1993,
respectively. 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.

NONINTEREST INCOME Noninterest income before securities
transactions increased $239.7 million, or 25.5 percent, to $1.2
billion in 1994. Investment management and trust revenue
increased $20.0 million, or 6.4 percent, due to an increase in
new business partially offset by a decline in the value of
managed assets. Mortgage banking income increased $148.0
million to $198.5 million as a result of the PNC Mortgage
acquisition and the purchase of the Associates mortgage
servicing portfolio.

Other noninterest income increased $57.9 million to $156.9
million due to gains from Midlantic's sales of assets held for
accelerated disposition totaling $32.3 million, sales of other
assets, and higher venture capital income.

Net securities losses totaled $141.6 million in 1994 compared
with net securities gains of $194.7 million in 1993. During
1994, securities were sold in connection with initiatives to
downsize the securities portfolio and to reduce interest rate
sensitivity.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE Noninterest expense totaled $2.2 billion in
1994 compared with $2.0 billion in 1993. The increase was
primarily due to acquisitions and a $48.3 million special
charge related to the consolidation of telebanking centers and
rationalization of the retail branch network.

Staff expense totaled $1.0 billion in 1994 compared with
$901.2 million in 1993. The increase was primarily due to
acquisitions in the mortgage banking and consumer banking
businesses. Average full-time equivalent employees increased
13.5 percent.

Net occupancy and equipment expense increased $32.8
million and intangible amortization increased $48.4 million
primarily attributable to acquisitions. Other noninterest
expense decreased 3.0 percent to $626.2 million primarily due
to lower foreclosed asset expense.


BALANCE SHEET REVIEW

Total assets increased $1.4 billion to $77.5 billion at
December 31, 1994 primarily due to acquisitions.

Total consumer and residential mortgage loans increased $2.0
billion primarily due to acquisitions and portfolio
management strategies. Commercial loans outstanding were
$15.5 billion at December 31, 1994 and 1993. Total
commercial real estate loans were $5.1 and $5.2 billion at
December 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, respectively.

Securities totaled $23.7 billion at December 31, 1994
compared with $25.5 billion at December 31, 1993. Securities
represented 33.9 percent of earning assets at December 31,
1994 compared with 35.8 percent at the prior year end. The
reduction reflects management's actions to reduce the size of
the securities portfolio and to reduce interest rate sensitivity.

Deposits increased $1.1 billion to $45.8 billion in the year-to-
year comparison as increases from acquired deposits were
partially offset by lower brokered and time deposits.

Borrowed funds totaled $12.2 billion at December 31, 1994
compared with $12.3 billion at December 31, 1993. During
1994, certain repurchase agreements and treasury, tax and
loan borrowings were replaced with commercial paper and
term Federal funds purchased.

ASSET QUALITY During 1994, asset quality continued to improve.
Nonperforming assets totaled $757 million at December 31,
1994 compared with $1.1 billion at year-end 1993.

Accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more as to
the payment of principal or interest totaled $175 million at
December 31, 1994 compared with $171 million at December
31, 1993. Residential mortgage and student loans of $52
million and $37 million were included in the total at
December 31, 1994 compared with $61 million and $42
million, respectively, at year-end 1993.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES The allowance for credit losses
was $1.4 billion at December 31, 1994 and 1993, representing
3.07 percent of total loans at December 31, 1994 compared
with 3.26 percent at year-end 1993. As a percentage of period-
end nonperforming loans, the allowance for credit losses was
239.3 percent at December 31, 1994 compared with 160.3
percent at year-end 1993.

CAPITAL Shareholders' equity totaled $5.7 billion and $5.4
billion at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively, and the
leverage ratio was 7.10 percent and 7.69 percent in the
comparison. Tier I and total risk-based capital ratios were 9.36
percent and 12.41 percent, respectively, at December 31,
1994. The comparable December 31, 1993 ratios were 9.75
percent and 12.55 percent.

REPORTS ON CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


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 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, 1995.
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, 1995.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP,
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,
1995 and 1994, 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,
1995. 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, 1995 and 1994, and the consolidated results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements,
PNC Bank Corp. changed its method of accounting for
mortgage servicing rights in 1995, postemployment benefits in
1994, and income taxes and intangible assets in 1993.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BUSINESS PNC Bank Corp. provides a broad range of banking
and related financial services through its subsidiaries to
consumers, small businesses 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
certain 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. The
merger between PNC Bank Corp. and Midlantic Corporation
("Midlantic" or "MC") was completed on December 31, 1995
and accounted for as a pooling of interests. Accordingly, all
financial information has been restated as if the companies
were combined for all periods presented.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements,
management is required to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.
Actual results will differ from such estimates and such
differences may be material to the financial statements.

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 mortgage banking income.

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. Gains
and losses on trading securities are included in other income.
Securities not classified as investments or trading are
designated as securities available for sale and carried at fair
value with unrealized gains and losses reflected in
shareholders' equity. Gains and losses on sales of securities
available for sale are generally computed on a specific
security basis and recognized in results of operations.

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 the level yield method. Significant loan fees are
deferred and accreted to interest 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 is discontinued when it is determined the collection of
interest or principal is doubtful or when a default of interest or
principal has existed for 90 days or more, unless the 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 the
prior year, if any, is charged against the allowance for credit
losses. A loan is categorized as restructured if the original
interest rate, 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. These 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 acquisition date 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.

Interest collected on impaired loans is recognized on the cash
basis or cost recovery method.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES Effective January 1, 1995, the
Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan," as amended. Under this Standard, the
Corporation estimates credit losses on impaired loans based on
the present value of expected cash flows or the fair value of
the underlying collateral if the loan repay-

                                       50
<PAGE>   30
ment is expected to come from the sale or operation of such collateral.
For purposes of this Standard, nonaccrual and restructured
commercial and commercial real estate loans are considered to
be impaired. Prior to 1995, credit losses related to these loans
were estimated based on undiscounted cash flows or the fair
value of the underlying collateral.

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.

The allowance is maintained at a level believed by
management to be sufficient to absorb estimated potential
credit losses. Management's determination of the adequacy of
the allowance is based on periodic evaluations of the credit
portfolio and other relevant factors. This evaluation is
inherently subjective as it requires material estimates,
including the amounts and timing of expected future cash
flows on impaired loans, which may be susceptible to
significant change. The allowance for credit losses on
impaired loans pursuant to SFAS No. 114 is one component
of the methodology for determining the allowance for credit
losses. The remaining components of the allowance for credit
losses provide for estimated losses on consumer loans and
residential mortgages, and general amounts for historical loss
experience, uncertainties in estimating losses and inherent
risks in the various credit portfolios.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS Effective
January 1, 1993, the Corporation changed its method of
accounting for certain identifiable 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, or $.03 per
fully diluted share.

In 1995, the Corporation adopted SFAS No. 122, "Accounting
for Mortgage Servicing Rights," on a prospective basis as
required by the Standard. SFAS No. 122 provides for the
recognition of originated mortgage servicing rights ("OMSR")
retained for loans sold by allocating total costs incurred
between the loan and the servicing rights based on their
relative fair values. Previously, the value of OMSR was not
recognized as an asset when the related loan was sold.
Mortgage servicing rights ("MSR") are amortized in
proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing
income. To determine the fair value of MSR, the Corporation
estimates the present value of future cash flows incorporating
numerous assumptions including servicing income, cost of
servicing, discount rates, prepayment speeds and default rates.

SFAS No. 122 also requires establishment of a valuation
allowance for the excess of the carrying amount of capitalized
MSR over estimated fair value. For purposes of measuring
impairment, MSR are disaggregated and stratified on
predominant risk characteristics, primarily loan type, interest
rate and investor type.

The after-tax amount of OMSR recognized in 1995 was $24.1
million, or $.07 per fully diluted share.

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.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION For financial reporting purposes,
premises and equipment are depreciated principally using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets. Accelerated methods are used for federal income tax
purposes. Leasehold improvements are amortized over their
estimated useful lives or their respective lease terms,
whichever is shorter.

FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES The Corporation uses off-balance-sheet
financial derivatives as part of the overall asset/liability
management process and in mortgage banking activities.
Substantially all such instruments are used to manage risk
related to changes in interest rates. Financial derivatives
primarily consist of interest rate swaps, caps and floors, and
futures and forward contracts.

Interest rate swaps, including swaps with index-amortizing
characteristics, are agreements with a counterparty to
exchange periodic interest payments calculated on a notional
principal amount. Interest rate swaps used to alter the
repricing structure of interest-bearing assets or liabilities are
accounted for under the accrual method. To qualify for such
accounting, the swaps must be designated to interest-bearing
assets or liabilities and alter their interest rate characteristics
(such as from fixed to variable, variable to fixed, or one
variable index to another) over the expected term of the swap
agreements or the designated instruments, whichever is
shorter. Under this method, the net amount payable or
receivable from interest rate swaps is accrued as an adjustment
to interest income or expense of the designated instruments.


                                       51
<PAGE>   31
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Changes in fair value of interest rate swaps accounted for
under the accrual method are not reflected in the
accompanying financial statements unless designated to an
instrument accounted for at fair value. Realized gains and
losses on terminated interest rate swaps are deferred as an
adjustment to the carrying amount of the designated
instruments and amortized over the shorter of the remaining
original life of the agreements or the designated instruments.
If the designated instruments are disposed of, the fair value of
the interest rate swap or unamortized deferred gains or losses
are included in the determination of the gain or loss on the
disposition of such instruments. Interest rate swaps not
qualifying for accrual accounting are marked to market in the
results of operations.

Interest rate caps and floors are agreements where, for a fee,
the counterparty agrees to pay the Corporation the amount, if
any, by which a specified market interest rate is higher or
lower than a defined rate applied to a notional amount. To
qualify for accrual accounting, interest rate caps and floors
must be designated to interest-bearing assets or liabilities and
modify their interest rate characteristics (such as modifying a
fixed-rate asset to a floating-rate asset when rates exceed the
defined cap rate) over the term of the agreement or the
designated instruments, whichever is shorter. Premiums on
interest rate caps and floors are deferred and amortized over
the life of the agreement as an adjustment to interest income
or interest expense of the designated instruments.
Unamortized premiums are included in other assets. Payments
received on interest rate caps and floors are recognized under
the accrual method as an adjustment to interest income or
expense of the designated instruments. Changes in fair value
of interest rate caps accounted for under the accrual method
are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements
unless designated to an instrument accounted for at fair value.

Upon termination of an interest rate cap or floor, any losses,
measured by the difference between the unamortized premium
and fair value, would be recognized immediately in the results
of operations. Any gains resulting from such terminations
would be deferred and amortized as an adjustment to interest
income or expense of the designated instruments over the
shorter of the remaining life of the interest rate contract or the
designated instrument. If the designated instruments are
disposed of, any unrealized gains associated with the interest
rate caps or floors or unamortized deferred gains, are included
in the determination of the gain or loss on the disposition of
such instruments. Interest rate caps or floors not qualifying for
accrual accounting are marked to market in the results of
operations.

Forward contracts provide for the delivery of financial
instruments at a specified future date and at a specified price
or yield. The Corporation uses forward contracts primarily to
manage risk associated with its mortgage banking activities.
Realized gains and losses on mandatory and optional delivery
forward commitments are recorded in mortgage banking
income in the period settlement occurs. Unrealized gains or
losses are considered in the lower of cost or market valuation
of loans held for sale.

Futures contracts are used to hedge interest rate risk. To
qualify for hedge accounting, the futures contract must be
designated as a hedge of an asset, liability, firm commitment
or anticipated transaction that is probable of occurring and
whose significant terms have been identified. Such
instruments must expose the Corporation to interest rate risk
and the futures contract must reduce such risk. Under hedge
accounting, gains and losses on futures contracts are deferred
and included in the carrying value of related assets and
liabilities. The deferred gains and losses are amortized as a
yield adjustment over the expected life of the hedged
instrument. If the hedged instruments are disposed of, the
unamortized deferred gains or losses are included in the
determination of the gain/loss on the disposition of such
instruments.

In addition, the Corporation enters into foreign currency
exchange contracts to accommodate customers. The fair value
of such activity is recorded in other assets. Realized and
unrealized gains and losses are included in other income.

INCOME TAXES Effective January 1, 1993, the Corporation
adopted SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes,"
which requires 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 law that will be
in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.
Previously, deferred income taxes were accounted for using
the deferred method. The cumulative effect of the change
increased 1993 net income by $29.9 million, or $.09 per fully
diluted share.

POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS Effective January 1, 1994, the
Corporation adopted SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting
for Postemployment Benefits." SFAS No. 112 requires accrual
of a liability for benefits to be paid to former or inactive
employees after employment, but before retirement. The
cumulative effect of the change in accounting decreased net
income by $7.5 million, or $.02 per

                                       52
<PAGE>   32
fully diluted share. Prior to 1994, the Corporation accounted for 
postemployment benefits on a cash basis.

STOCK OPTIONS Employee stock options are accounted for under
Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, "Accounting 
for Stock Issued to Employees". Stock options are granted at 
exercise prices not less than the fair market value of common 
stock on the date of grant. Under APB No. 25, no compensation 
expense is recognized pursuant to the Corporation's stock option plans.

TREASURY STOCK The Corporation records common stock
purchased for treasury 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.


NOTE 2 MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

On December 31, 1995, Midlantic merged with the
Corporation. Each share of Midlantic common stock
outstanding was converted into 2.05 shares of the
Corporation's common stock. The Corporation issued
approximately 112 million shares of common stock and cash
in lieu of fractional shares in connection with the merger. The
transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests and,
accordingly, all financial information has been restated as 
if the entities were combined for all prior periods.

The following table sets forth separate company financial
information immediately prior to the merger and, accordingly,
such information does not include special charges related to
the merger.

On October 6, 1995, the Corporation acquired Chemical New
Jersey Holdings, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary Chemical
Bank New Jersey, N.A. ("Chemical") consisting of 81 branches in
southern and central New Jersey with total assets of $3.2 billion
and retail core deposits of $2.7 billion. The Corporation paid $492
million in cash and the transaction was accounted for under the
purchase method.

In February 1995, the Corporation acquired BlackRock
Financial Management, L.P., a New York-based, fixed-income
investment management firm with approximately $25 billion
in assets under management at closing. The Corporation paid
$71 million in cash and issued $169 million of unsecured
notes. The transaction was accounted for under the purchase
method.

During 1994, the Corporation acquired United Federal
Bancorp, Inc., State College, Pennsylvania, and First Eastern
Corp., Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. The acquisitions added
assets and deposits of $2.8 billion and $2.4 billion,
respectively. The Corporation paid $486 million and
accounted for the acquisitions under the purchase method.

In connection with implementing accounting guidance issued
in November 1995, the Corporation reassessed its investment
securities' classifications. All securities previously classified
as held to maturity were reclassified to the available-for-sale
portfolio. The reclassifications were accounted for at fair
value and included the fair value of associated financial
derivatives. Subsequently, to accelerate the balance sheet
repositioning begun in the latter half of 1994, the Corporation
sold $1.9 billion of U.S. Treasury securities and $4.1 billion of
collateralized mortgage obligations at a loss of $61.3 million.
In connection with the sales, losses totaling $228.2 million,
included in net securities losses, were recognized on
terminated pay-fixed interest rate swaps with a notional value
of $5.1 billion that were designated to such securities.

At December 31, 1995, $6.1 billion notional value of interest
rate swaps and caps were associated with securities available
for sale. The fair value of securities available for sale at year-
end 1995 set forth above includes unrealized gains of $6 million
on related derivatives. No financial derivatives were designated 
to securities available for sale at year-end 1994. Interest rate 
swaps and caps with a notional value of $11.1 billion, fair value 
of $204 million and carrying value of $130 million were designated 
to investmentsecurities at December 31, 1994. The fair value of 
these derivatives is not included in the values set forth above.

The following table presents the amortized cost and fair value
of debt securities at December 31, 1995 by remaining
contractual maturity. Based on expected prepayment rates and
historical experience, the expected weighted average maturity
of U.S. Government agency debt and mortgage-related and
asset-backed securities was approximately 2 years and 10
months at December 31, 1995.

</TABLE>


Commitments to extend credit represent arrangements to lend
funds provided there is no violation of specified contractual
conditions. Such amounts are net of participations and
syndications, primarily to financial institutions, totaling $4.2
billion and $2.5 billion at December 31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively. Commercial commitments generally have fixed
expiration dates, may require payment of a fee, and contain
termination clauses in the event of deterioration in the
customer's credit quality. Most commercial commitments
expire unfunded, and therefore cash requirements are
substantially less than the total commitment. Consumer
commitments are primarily for home equity and credit card
lines.

Loan outstandings and related unfunded commitments are
concentrated within affiliate markets, which include Delaware,
Indiana, Kentucky, New Jersey, Ohio and Pennsylvania. At
December 31, 1995, no specific industry concentration
exceeded 5 percent of total outstandings and unfunded
commitments.

Letters of credit totaled $4.5 billion and $4.6 billion at
December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, and consist
primarily of standby letters of credit which commit the
Corporation to make payments on behalf of customers when
certain specified future events occur. Such instruments are
typically issued to support industrial revenue bonds,
commercial paper, and bid or performance related contracts.
At year-end 1995, the largest industry concentration within
standby letters of credit was healthcare, which accounted for
approximately 18 percent of the total. Maturities for standby
letters of credit ranged from 1996 to 2020.

At December 31, 1995, $475 million 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 affiliated
companies 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 amounts of these loans were $379 million
and $436 million at December 31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively. During 1995, new loans of $657 million were
funded, and repayments totaled $714 million.

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

At December 31, 1995, the fair value of capitalized MSR and
the allowance for impairment totaled $328.7 million and $10.9
million, respectively. Amortization of MSR totaled $71.5
million, $63.1 million and $17.1 million in 1995, 1994 and
1993, respectively.

In March 1995, SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be
Disposed Of," was issued. This Standard requires that long-
lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets, such as
goodwill, be reviewed for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of
an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment is measured
based on the present value of expected future cash flows from
the asset and its eventual disposition. Management expects to
adopt this Standard effective January 1, 1996 and such
adoption is not expected to have a material impact on financial
position or results of operations.

NOTE 12 FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES

The Corporation uses a variety of off-balance-sheet financial
derivatives as part of its overall interest rate risk management
process and to manage risk associated with mortgage banking activities.

Financial derivatives involve, to varying degrees, interest rate
and credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the
balance sheet but less than the notional amount of the contract.
For interest rate swaps, caps and floors, only periodic cash
payments and, with respect to caps and floors, premiums, are
exchanged; therefore, cash requirements and exposure to
credit risk are significantly less than the notional value. The
Corporation manages these risks as part of its asset/liability
management process and through the Corporation's credit
policies and procedures. The Corporation seeks to minimize
the credit risk by entering into transactions with only a select
number of high-quality institutions, establishing credit limits,
requiring bilateral-netting agreements, and, in certain
instances, segregated collateral.

Receive-fixed interest rate swaps are primarily designated to
securities available for sale, commercial loans, interest-
bearing deposits, and borrowed funds. Interest-bearing
deposits include time deposits and transaction accounts, such
as demand and money market. Historical data indicate there is
a fixed-rate component to the rates paid on transaction
accounts. Receive-fixed interest rate swaps convert this fixed
component to a variable rate.

The notional value of index-amortizing interest rate swaps
amortize on predetermined dates and in predetermined

The floating rate portion of interest rate contracts is based on money-market
indices. As a percent of notional value, 83 percent were based on 3-month
LIBOR, 13 percent on 1-month LIBOR and the remainder on other short-term
indices.

</TABLE>

The Corporation's pay-fixed interest rate and basis swaps are
primarily used to alter the repricing characteristics of
overnight and other short term borrowings. With respect to
pay-fixed swaps, the Corporation receives payments based on
floating money market indices, primarily 3-month LIBOR,
and pays fixed interest rates. Basis swaps convert variable rate
borrowings from one variable index to another. The
Corporation's swaps do not contain leverage or any similar
features.

The Corporation uses a combination of on-balance-sheet
instruments and financial derivatives to manage risk
associated with its mortgage banking activities. The inherent
risk affecting the value of MSR is the potential for the related
mortgages to prepay, thereby eliminating the underlying servicing
fee income stream. Prepayment is primarily related to declining
interest rates. In 1995, the Corporation entered into a combination
of interest rate floors and receive-fixed interest rate swaps
designed to reduce this risk. If interest rates decrease, the value of the
interest rate swaps and floors should increase and the value of the related MSR
should decline.

Forward contracts are used to manage risk positions associated
with mortgage origination activities. Substantially all forward
contracts mature within 90 days of origination. Forward
contracts are traded in over-the-counter markets and do not
have standardized terms. Counterparties to the Corporation's
forward contracts are primarily U.S. Government agencies and
brokers and dealers in mortgage-backed securities. In the
event the counterparty is unable to meet its contractual
obligations, the Corporation may be exposed to selling or
purchasing mortgage loans at prevailing market prices.

The following table sets forth the maturity distribution and
weighted average interest rates of financial derivatives used
for interest rate risk management. The maturity distribution of
receive-fixed index amortizing swaps is based on implied
forward rates. Weighted average interest rates paid or received
represent contractual interest rates in effect on December 31,
1995 and expected rates based on implied forward rates.

Interest rate caps with a notional value of $5.5 billion require the
counterparty to pay the Corporation the excess, if any, of 3-month LIBOR over
the specified cap rate. At December 31, 1995, 3-month LIBOR was 5.63 percent
and the specified cap rate was 6.50 percent.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


During 1995, $4.6 billion notional value of index amortizing
receive-fixed interest rate swaps and $5.1 billion notional
value of pay-fixed interest rate swaps were terminated. The
loss on the index amortizing swaps was deferred and is being
amortized as an adjustment to interest income or expense of
the designated instruments. At December 31, 1995, the
unamortized loss was $6.1 million and will be amortized over
a weighted-average remaining period of 6 months. Losses
totaling $228.2 million on terminated pay-fixed swaps
associated with securities sold are included in net securities
losses.

In connection with the Midlantic merger, $5.5 billion notional
value of interest rate caps that reduced exposure to higher
interest rates within a specified range were terminated at a loss
of $79.9 million. The interest rate cap was terminated as part
of the realignment of the combined asset and liability position
of the Corporation taking into account the interest rate risk
profile of Midlantic. The amount is included as a component
of special charges. Concurrently, the Corporation purchased
$5.5 billion notional value interest rate caps that require the
counterparty to pay the Corporation the excess, if any, of 3-
month LIBOR over a specified cap rate without limitation,
currently 6.50 percent, computed quarterly based on the
notional value of the contracts. At December 31, 1995, 3-
month LIBOR was 5.63 percent. The contracts expire during
the third and fourth quarters of 1997.

At December 31, 1995, credit exposure related to interest rate
swaps and caps totaled $32.7 million.

NOTE 13 SPECIAL CHARGES

In connection with the Midlantic merger, the Corporation
recorded special charges totaling $260 million in 1995. These
charges represent estimated costs of integrating and
consolidating branch networks, back office and administrative
facilities, professional services and the cost to terminate an
interest rate cap position.

Branch network integration and consolidation will begin
during the first half of 1996 with the closing or consolidation
of overlapping and unprofitable facilities and operations.
Consolidation of the back office and administrative facilities is
expected to begin later in 1996.

NOTE 14 EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

INCENTIVE SAVINGS PLANS The Corporation sponsors incentive
savings plans covering substantially all employees. Under the
plans, employee contributions up to 3 percent or 6 percent of
base pay, subject to Internal Revenue Service limitations, are
matched with cash or shares of the Corporation's common
stock. Contributions for one of the plans are matched
primarily by shares of common stock held by the
Corporation's ESOP.

The Corporation makes annual contributions to the ESOP
equal to the debt service requirements on the ESOP borrowing
less dividends received by the ESOP. All dividends received
by the ESOP are used to pay debt service. During 1995, 1994
and 1993, dividends used for debt service totaled $9.9 million,
$9.5 million and $8.5 million, respectively. To satisfy
additional debt service requirements, the Corporation
contributed $8.5 million in 1995, $7.6 million in 1994 and
$8.8 million in 1993.

As the ESOP borrowing is repaid, shares are allocated to
employees who made contributions during the year based on
the proportion of annual debt service to total debt service. The
Corporation includes all ESOP shares as common shares
outstanding in its earnings per share computation. The
components of ESOP shares are as follows:

Compensation expense related to the portion of contributions
matched with ESOP shares is determined based on the number
of ESOP shares allocated. Compensation expense related to
these plans was $18.1 million for 1995, $12.7 million for 1994
and $6.8 million for 1993.

DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS The Corporation sponsors funded
defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all
employees. The plans provide 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 unfunded non-qualified supplemental
defined benefit retirement plans covering certain employees as
defined in the plans.

The following table sets forth the estimated funded status of
defined benefit plans:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The health care cost trend rate declines until it stabilizes at 5.0
percent beginning 2001. A one percent increase in the health
care trend rate would result in an increase of $255 thousand
and $1.0 million in the service cost and interest cost
components, respectively, and a $12.8 million increase in the
accumulated postretirement benefit obligation.

In connection with the Midlantic merger, the Corporation
conformed Midlantic's accounting policy for postretirement
benefits. As a result, a cumulative effect adjustment of $45.8
million net of tax was recorded, effective January 1, 1992.
This change increased net income by $2.3 million for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995.

The Corporation has an employee stock purchase plan which
covers a maximum of 5.2 million shares of common stock of
which 1.0 million 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. No charge to earnings is required with respect to such
noncompensatory plan. Shares issued pursuant to this plan
were as follows:

NOTE 15 INCENTIVE 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 are exercisable twelve months from the date of grant.
Payment of the option price may be in cash or shares of
common stock 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.

</TABLE>

At December 31, 1995, options for 9,729,070 shares of
common stock were exercisable. Shares of common stock
available for the granting of options under the Incentive Plan
and the predecessor plans were as follows: 10,225,990 at
December 31, 1995, 13,094,887 at December 31, 1994 and
12,967,457 at December 31, 1993.

During 1995, incentive share awards for 323,000 shares of
restricted common stock were granted under the Incentive 
Plan to certain executive officers. Such shares will
be earned when market prices of the Corporation's common
stock equal or exceed specified levels for defined periods.
Any shares issued will be forfeited if the named executive officer
leaves the Corporation's employ within two years after the
applicable performance condition has been satisfied. During
1995, compensation expense recognized with respect to
incentive share awards was $1.2 million.

NOTE 17 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. Neither the Corporation
nor any of its subsidiaries is subject to written regulatory
agreements.

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 $650 million at
December 31, 1995. Dividends also may be impacted by
capital needs, regulatory requirements and policies, and other
factors deemed 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 parent company or a
nonbank subsidiary which is in excess of 10 percent of the
capital stock 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 23
percent of consolidated net assets at December 31, 1995.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDTED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Federal Reserve Board regulations require depository
institutions to maintain cash reserves with the Federal Reserve
Bank. During 1995, subsidiary banks maintained reserves
which averaged $1.1 billion.

NOTE 18 LITIGATION

A consolidated purported class action complaint is pending
against the Corporation and certain officers, alleging
violations of federal securities laws and common law relating
to disclosures and seeking, among other things, unquantified
damages on behalf of purchasers of the Corporation's
securities during specified portions of 1994. Management
believes there are meritorious defenses to this consolidated
lawsuit and intends to defend it vigorously. Management
believes that the final disposition will not be material to the
Corporation's financial position.

A purported class action lawsuit was filed in 1992 against
PNC National Bank ("PNCNB"), alleging that certain credit
card fees charged to Pennsylvania cardholders violated
Pennsylvania law and seeking, among other things,
unquantified compensatory and triple damages and injunctive
relief. The federal district court dismissed the lawsuit, holding
that Pennsylvania law is preempted by federal banking laws.
The court of appeals, after initially holding that there was 
no federal court jurisdiction and remanded the case to state court, 
has vacated its opinion and granted a rehearing. The case against 
PNCNB is one of a number of similar cases pending against several 
credit card issuers. The United States Supreme Court is reviewing 
one such case, the outcome of which will affect the lawsuit against
PNCNB. The impact of the final disposition of the lawsuit
brought against PNCNB cannot be assessed at this 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.

Real and personal property, lease financings, loan customer
relationships, deposit customer intangibles, retail branch
networks, fee-based businesses, such as asset management,
mortgage banking and brokerage, trademarks and brand
names are excluded from the amounts set forth above.
Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do
not represent the underlying value of the Corporation.

Fair value is defined 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 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 were 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 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 in discounted cash flow analyses are based on
market yield curves.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CASH AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS The carrying amounts
reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash and short-
term investments approximate those assets' fair values
primarily due to their short-term nature. For purposes of this
disclosure only, short-term investments include due from
banks, interest-earning deposits with banks, federal funds sold
and resale agreements, trading securities, customer's
acceptance liability, accrued interest receivable and loans held
for accelerated disposition.

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 at
least 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 exclude interest payments.

For automobile, home equity, student and credit card loans,
fair values are determined by using internal pricing models
incorporating assumptions about prepayment rates, credit
losses and servicing fees and costs and discounting the future
net revenues at an appropriate risk-weighted 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 was
estimated based on quoted market prices of similar loans sold
in conjunction with securitization transactions, adjusted for
differences in loan characteristics. Loans held for sale are
reported at the lower of cost or market value in the
consolidated balance sheet. For purposes of this disclosure
only, the carrying value approximates fair value.

DEPOSITS The carrying amounts of 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.

BORROWED FUNDS 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 LETTER 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.

FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES The fair value of index-amortizing
interest rate swaps, caps and floors is based on dealer quotes.
The fair value of other interest rate swaps is the discounted
value of the expected net cash flows. These fair values
represent the estimated amounts the Corporation would
receive or pay to terminate the contracts, taking into account
current interest rates.

</TABLE>

The table above sets forth the contractual maturity distribution
of the securities portfolio at December 31, 1995. U.S.
Government agency debt and mortgage-backed and asset-
backed securities are included in the No Fixed Maturity
category. Based on expected prepayment rates and historical
experience, the weighted average expected maturity of such
securities was approximately 2 years and 10 months at
December 31, 1995.

Weighted average yields are based on historical cost with
effective yields weighted for the contractual maturity of each
security. Tax-exempt securities have been adjusted to a
taxable-equivalent basis using a federal income tax rate of 35
percent. At December 31, 1995, $6.1 billion notional value of
interest rate swaps and caps designated to the securities
portfolio altered the contractual weighted average yield from
6.42 percent to 6.45 percent.

At December 31, 1995, $4.0 billion of interest rate swaps
designated to commercial and commercial real estate loans
altered the interest rate characteristics of such loans. The
impact of the interest rate swaps is not reflected in the table
above.

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 1995 and 1994, stronger economic conditions
combined with management's ongoing efforts to improve asset
quality resulted in lower nonperforming assets and net charge-
offs, and a higher reserve coverage of nonperforming loans.

STATISTICAL INFORMATION

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, 1995, 1994, and 1993, $361
million, $51 million and $2.7 billion, 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. At December 31, 1995 and 1994, $1.5
billion and $350 million, respectively, notional value of
interest rate swaps were designated to borrowed funds. The
effect of these swaps is not included in the rates set forth in
the table.

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 shown in the table below is
based on a federal income tax rate of 35 percent for 1995,
1994 and 1993, and 34 percent for all other years.
