Note 1 -- Basis of Presentation
          ---------------------
  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SUN BANCORP, 
INC. (SUN), the parent company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries of Sun Bank 
(Bank), doing business as Snyder County Trust Company, Central Pennsylvania 
Bank, Bucktail Bank and Trust Company, Watsontown Bank, and the Pennsylvania SUN
Life Insurance Company.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.

  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the interim 
periods do not include all of the information and footnotes required by 
generally accepted accounting principles.  However, in the opinion of 
management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
the interim period have been included.  Operating results for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results 
that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1998.

  The accounting policies followed in the presentation of interim financial 
results are the same as those followed on an annual basis.  These policies are 
presented on pages 10 and 11 of the 1997 Annual Report to Shareholders.

Note 2 -- Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income
	         ----------------------------------------------

  The purpose of reporting comprehensive income is to report a measure of all 
changes in SUN's equity that result from economic events other than transactions
with shareholders in their capacity as shareholders.  For SUN, comprehensive 
income includes traditional income statement amounts as well as unrealized gains
and losses on certain investments in debt and equity securities (i.e. 
available-for-sale securities).  Because unrealized gains and losses are part 
of comprehensive income, comprehensive income may vary substantially between 
reporting periods due to fluctuations in the market prices of securities held. 
This is evidenced by the fact that SUN's net income increased for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1998 compared to the corresponding periods in 
1997, but comprehensive income over the same periods has declined.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations

  The following is management's discussion and analysis of the significant 
changes in the results of operations, capital resources and liquidity presented
in its accompanying consolidated financial statements for SUN BANCORP, INC., a 
bank holding company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Sun Bank.  SUN also owns
a captive insurance company, the Pennsylvania SUN Life Insurance Company, that 
provides credit life and disability insurance to Sun Bank's credit customers.  
SUN's consolidated financial condition and results of operations consist almost 
entirely of the bank's financial condition and results of operations.  This 
discussion should be read in conjunction with the 1997 Annual Report.  Current 
performance does not guarantee or assure similar performance in the future, and
may not be indicative of future results.
	
  SUN's net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 amounted to 
$6,306,000, an increase of 10.3% over the same period of 1997.  Basic and 
diluted earnings per share were $.97 and $.96, respectively, for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 compared to $.97 basic and diluted for the same period
in 1997.  SUN achieved a 1.49% return on average assets and a 12.63% return on 
average equity for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, compared to ratios
of 1.82% and 16.07% for the previous comparable period.  Since the acquisition
of Bucktail Bank and Trust Company (Bucktail) on June 30, 1997, we are required
by generally accepted accounting principles to reflect the effect of goodwill on
the balance sheet and income statement.  This expense has an effect on earnings.
Without the effect of goodwill, our return on average assets would be 1.66% and
return on average equity would be 16.39% for the nine months ended September 30,
1998, compared to ratios of 1.90% and 18.05% for the previous comparable period.
For the three months ended September 30, 1998, SUN's earnings amounted to 
$2,124,000, an increase of 2.3% over the same period of 1997.  Basic and diluted
earnings per share were $.33 for the three months ended September 1998, compared
to $.32 basic and diluted for the same period in 1997.  Earnings per share data
has been adjusted to reflect a three-for-two stock split on December 12, 1997 
and 5% stock dividend on June 5, 1998.  

Results of Operations - Three Months Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------

  Interest income increased $1,146,000 or 11.8% from $9,724,000 for the three 
months ended September 30, 1997.  However, interest expense also increased 
$1,212,000 or 26.2% from the three month ended September 30, 1997.  This 
increase in interest expense off set increases in interest income which kept net
interest income at a static level for the three months ended September 30, 1998 
and 1997.  

  Total other operating income increased $65,000, excluding net security gains,
or 10.7%, for the three months ended September 30, 1998 compared to the same 
period of 1997.  Net security gains, primarily from the sales of equity 
securities, were $256,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1998 compared
to gains of $433,000 for the same period in 1997.  Service charges on deposit 
accounts decreased $14,000 to $290,000 from $304,000 for the three months

ended September 30, 1997.  Additionally, trust income increased 52.8% to 
$165,000 primarily due to the addition of Bucktail trust accounts.  Other income
increased 13.9% to $188,000 from $165,000 for the three months ended 
September 30, 1997.  The increase is the result of safe deposit box rent and 
income from the increased debit and credit card interchange fees.  

  Other operating expenses decreased to $2,800,000 for the three months ended 
September 30, 1998, compared to $3,157,000 in the same period in 1997.  Other 
expense decreased $279,000 or 26.6% to $770,000 from $1,049,000 for the three 
months ended September 30, 1997.  The decrease is due primarily to a write down
of other real estate owned of $180,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1997.  In addition, the three months ended September 30, 1997 included $55,000 
in expenses associated with the merger with Bucktail Bank and Trust.  The 
remaining decrease of $44,000 is the result of economies of scale being 
realized.

Results of Operations - Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------

  The increase in SUN's net earnings for the nine months ended September 30,
1998 compared to the same period in 1997 was attributable primarily to increases
in net interest income.  Increases in other operating expenses limited the 
growth of net earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.  Net 
interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 increased 
$3,047,000, or 25.4%, over the same period in 1997, principally due to increased
volumes in the first and second quarters of 1998 resulting from the Bucktail 
acquisition.  Other operating income increased $50,000, or 1.8%, over the same 
period of 1997, as net security gains, primarily from the sale of equity 
securities, decreased $316,000.  Service charges on deposit accounts and trust 
income increased $336,000 due in part to reasons described above.

  Other operating expenses increased $1,973,000, or 30.5%, for the nine months 
ended September 30, 1998 over the same period in 1997 due in part to the 
$1,241,000 increase in salary and employee benefits, occupancy expense, and 
furniture and equipment expense due mainly to the acquisition of Bucktail.  The
increase includes goodwill amortization of $566,000 for the nine months ended 
September 30, 1998 compared to $189,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1997.  Other expenses increased $293,000 with the Pennsylvania shares tax 
increasing $104,000 as a direct result of the Bucktail acquisition.  The 
remaining increase in other expense was attributable to increases in general 
operating expenses such as marketing, insurance, supplies, and postage due to 
the addition of offices from the Bucktail acquisition.

Balance Sheet - September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997 
- --------------------------------------------------------

  Total assets were $609,642,000 at September 30, 1998, an increase of 19.4% 
from $510,728,000 at December 31, 1997.  Securities available-for-sale increased
by $70,518,000.  The investment portfolio is mainly comprised of mortgage-backed
securities and state and municipal bonds.  The intangible asset, goodwill, was 
reduced to $10,380,000 at September 30, 1998.  Goodwill resulted from the 
acquisition of Bucktail on June 30, 1997.  Also, total liabilities increased 
$96,646,000, or 21.7% to $541,761,000 at September 30, 1998 compared to 
December 31, 1997.  Deposits increased by $24,773,000 due to growth in 
certificates of deposit and NOW accounts.  The introduction of a government 
funds account has provided additional deposits of $10,806,000 with a majority of
the remaining increase due to certificate of deposit growth.  Total borrowed 
funds increased $69,253,000, or 61.1% to $182,537,000 in 1998 with FHLB term 
borrowings representing $69,475,000 of the increase.  Average term FHLB 
borrowings increased for the first nine months by $36,240,000.  These additional
borrowings were made to take advantage of special rates offered by the FHLB of 
Pittsburgh.  Management reinvested the additional borrowed funds in additional 
mortgage backed securities.

Allowance for Possible Loan Losses
- ----------------------------------

  Losses on loans are charged against the allowance in the period in which they
have been determined to be uncollectible.  Recoveries of loans previously 
charged off are credited to the allowance as they are received.  A monthly 
review of the allowance for possible loan losses is done to determine the 
collectibility of certain loans based on internal analysis and management's 
assumptions as to the ability of the borrower to service the loan.  As of 
September 30, 1998, the allowance for possible loan losses was $3,498,000.  
This allowance amount represents 1.09% of total loans.  Management deems the 
allowance to be adequate; however, future additions may be necessary based on 
economic, market, or other unforeseeable conditions.  Although management makes
its best estimate as to the additions to the allowance, there can be no 
assurance that future material additions may not be needed.  

Changes in Shareholders' Equity Accounts
- ----------------------------------------

  SUN and other corporate entities are subject to accounting standards that 
dictate how we report our financial performance.  These rules are written to 
apply to all corporations.  In the second quarter of 1998, SUN experienced two 
events which caused a change within its shareholders' equity accounts.  

  At the Spring 1998 shareholders' meeting, shareholders approved the 
elimination of the stated par on SUN's common stock.  This act caused the 
additional paid-in capital account to be reduced to zero, with the balance of 
$56,369,000 being reclassified to the common stock account.

         of Operations

  SUN's shareholders' equity accounts also experienced one additional 
significant change.  On June 5, 1998, a 5% stock dividend was distributed.  When
stock dividends of less than 20% are declared, the difference between the par 
value and the market value of the stock dividend must be recorded as a reduction
in the retained earnings account with a corresponding increase in common stock.
Accordingly, in the second quarter of 1998, an accounting entry of $10,791,000 
was recorded to reduce retained earnings and increase common stock (no net 
effect on SUN's total shareholders' equity) for the market value of the 5% stock
dividend.  This results in a deficit retained earnings balance of $5,965,000 as
of September 30, 1998.  Although this account is negative due to accounting 
standard requirements,   SUN's total shareholders' equity was $67,881,000 as of
September 30, 1998 is indicative of a very strong financial condition.  


Capital Adequacy
- ----------------

  Management believes capital is being maintained at adequate levels.  SUN paid
a cash dividend of $.210 per share to its shareholders on September 11, 1998.  
SUN's stock is traded publicly on the NASDAQ national market system under the 
symbol SUBI.  SUN's strong capital position is evidenced by the following 
capital ratios which are well above the regulatory minimum levels.

Regulatory and Industry Merger Activity
- ---------------------------------------

  From time to time, various types of federal and state legislation have been 
proposed that could result in additional regulation of, and restrictions on, the
business of SUN and Sun Bank.  It cannot be predicted whether such legislation 
will be adopted or, if adopted, how such legislation would affect the business 
of SUN and Sun Bank.  As a consequence of the extensive regulation of commercial
banking activities in the United States, SUN's and Sun Bank's business is 
particularly susceptible to being affected by federal legislation and 
regulations that may increase the costs of doing business.  Except as 
specifically described above, management believes that the effect of the 
provisions of legislation on the liquidity, capital resources, and results of 
operations of SUN will be immaterial.  Management is not aware of any other 
current specific recommendations by regulatory authorities or proposed 
legislation, which if they were implemented, would have a material adverse 
effect upon the liquidity, capital resources, or results of operations, although
the general cost of compliance with numerous and multiple federal and state laws
and regulations does have, and in the future may have, a negative impact 
on SUN's results of operations.

  Further, the business of SUN is also affected by the state of the financial 
services industry in general.  As a result of legal and industry changes, 
management predicts that the industry will continue to experience an increase in
consolidations and mergers as the financial services industry strives for 
greater cost efficiencies and market share.  Management also expects increased 
diversification of financial products and services offered by Sun Bank and its 
competitors.  Management believes that such consolidations and mergers, and 
diversification of products and services may enhance its competitive position as
a community bank.

Year 2000 Readiness
- -------------------

  SUN's Year 2000 Project Team consists of members from every business unit in 
the company.  Continuous progress is being made to assure the company's 
readiness for Year 2000 compliance.  The Year 2000 project has top management's
fullest support and is considered one of the corporation's highest priorities.  

  Although SUN performs its core application processing in-house, it relies 
heavily on external vendors for all Mission Critical Systems.  None of these 
systems are developed or designed in-house.  To date, the Inventory and 
Assessment Phases have been completed, with all known systems and vendors being
evaluated or contacted.  The vendors of the Mission Critical Systems have 
indicated they are in compliance or have plans in place to be compliant by the 
first quarter of 1999.  In addition to the system certification by the Mission 
Critical vendors, SUN is also performing its own in-house testing of these 
systems and identified system interfaces.

  SUN is well along in the Validation Phase which involves testing the Mission 
Critical Systems.  Multiple levels of testing are being conducted both in-house
and by the vendors.  Most testing will be substantially complete by year-end 
1998 with the remaining tests being completed during the first quarter of 1999.
Additional personnel resources are being allocated to this phase of the project
to assure its timely completion.  At this time, no significant Year 2000 
problems have been identified.

         of Operations

  The Project Team is also developing contingency plans that can be readily 
instituted in the case of any Mission Critical Systems being unavailable.  
Individual sub-task teams have been formed to create and test these plans.  This
process will continue throughout much of the first quarter of 1999.

  Excluding the personnel costs, which are expensed as incurred, the total cost
associated with Year 2000 readiness is not significant.  To date, the associated
costs are less than $20,000.  Currently, there are no major hardware or software
system replacements or modifications required that are related to Year 2000.
