ITEM 1 - BUSINESS
Introduction
Keystone Financial, Inc. (Keystone) is the seventh largest banking corporation
headquartered in the state of Pennsylvania, with assets of $5.1 billion and five
banking subsidiaries operating in twenty-seven Pennsylvania counties, two
Maryland counties and one county in West Virginia.
Organized under the laws of Pennsylvania, Keystone was formed in 1984 as a
result of mergers between predecessor bank holding companies. As of the date of
this filing, Keystone's banking subsidiaries are Mid-State Bank and Trust
Company, Northern Central Bank, Pennsylvania National Bank and Trust Company,
The Frankford Bank, N.A., and American Trust Bank, N.A.
Nonbanking subsidiaries of the parent include Keystone Financial Unlimited,
Keystone Brokerage, Inc., Keystone Investment Services, Inc., Keystone Financial
Mortgage Corporation, Keystone Financial Life Insurance Company, Key Trust
Company, Martindale Andres & Co., and two community development corporations:
Keystone Financial Community Development Corporation I, Inc. and Keystone CDC,
Inc. Second tier subsidiaries include Keystone Financial Leasing Corporation, a
subsidiary of Frankford Bank, and LBCMD Corporation, a subsidiary of American
Trust Bank. All subsidiaries are wholly-owned. At December 31, 1995, Keystone
and its subsidiaries had 2,376 full-time equivalent employees.
Keystone and its subsidiaries do not have any portion of their business
dependent upon a single or a limited number of customers, the loss of which
would have a material adverse effect on their business; no portion of their
assets are concentrated within a single industry or group of related industries.
The businesses of Keystone are not seasonal in nature. For a description of the
nature of Keystone's business, refer to the section entitled "Nature of
Operations" contained within Exhibit 13.1.
Keystone's stock is traded in the over-the-counter market under the symbol of
KSTN and is included in the National Market System of NASDAQ.
During 1995, Keystone completed its merger with Shawnee Financial Services
Corporation, which included merging its banking subsidiary, The Everett Bank,
into Mid-State Bank and Trust Company. Keystone also completed its merger with
National American Bancorp, which included merging The First National Bank of
Bradford County into Northern Central Bank. In late 1995, Keystone also
acquired Martindale Andres & Company, an investment management company, which
now operates as a separate subsidiary of Keystone, and
3
<PAGE>
merged American Trust Bank and American Trust Bank of West Virginia (both pre-
existing fully-owned subsidiaries) to form American Trust Bank, N.A. The total
assets added to Keystone in 1995 due to mergers and acquisitions approximated
$230 million. This activity is more fully described in the Notes to the
Financial Statements section under the caption "Mergers and Acquisitions" within
Exhibit 13.1.
Legislation and Competition
Changes in banking legislation since 1982 have increased the competition
experienced by banks and bank holding companies and expanded the opportunities
to grow geographically and offer new types of financial services. Amendments to
the Pennsylvania Banking Code in 1982 provided for the phased elimination of
geographical branching restrictions for Pennsylvania banks and for the phased
elimination of limitations on the number of Pennsylvania banks a bank holding
company could own. In 1986, the Pennsylvania Banking Code was further amended
to provide for the phased implementation of reciprocal interstate banking,
limited initially to an eight-state region. Effective March 4, 1990,
Pennsylvania state-chartered and national banks may, subject to regulatory
approvals, establish or acquire branch offices anywhere in the state, and there
is no numerical limit on the number of Pennsylvania banks a bank holding company
may own. Also effective March 4, 1990, a bank holding company located in any
state or the District of Columbia could acquire a Pennsylvania bank or bank
holding company. Prior to the September 29, 1995 effective date of the federal
Interstate Banking and Branch Efficiency Act discussed below, this latter
provision was subject to a reciprocity requirement.
The federal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (the
"Interstate Act") can be expected to provide further impetus to interstate
mergers and acquisitions of banking organizations. Effective September 29,
1995, the Interstate Act permits bank holding companies in any state to acquire
bank holding companies or banks located in any other state. States may not opt
out of this provision but may prohibit the acquisition of banks less than five
years old. Effective June 1, 1997, banks located in different states may merge,
and bank holding companies with subsidiary banks in more than one state may
merge them to form interstate branch networks. States may permit interstate
bank mergers prior to this date or may opt out of this provision altogether.
They may also prohibit de novo interstate branching or interstate acquisitions
of branches without acquiring the entire bank. In July 1995, Pennsylvania
enacted amendments to the Pennsylvania Banking Code intended, effective
immediately, to permit Pennsylvania banks to engage in interstate mergers, to
permit Pennsylvania banks to establish de novo branches in other states and,
subject to a reciprocity requirement, to permit out-of-state banks to establish
4
<PAGE>
denovo branches in Pennsylvania. At least until June 1, 1997, an interstate
merger involving a Pennsylvania bank and interstate branching by a Pennsylvania
bank or by an out-of-state bank into Pennsylvania will also require authorizing
legislation by the state in which the out-of-state bank or branch is located.
The Interstate Act will necessitate some further adjustments and clarifications
in the state banking laws of Pennsylvania and other states, particularly as
regards the powers, examination and supervision of state-chartered banks with
interstate branches.
The result of these developments has been an increased volume of merger activity
involving Pennsylvania banks and bank holding companies since 1982; larger
banking organizations have sought to position themselves to enter into statewide
and inter-state banking; smaller banking organizations have sought to increase
their size in order to remain competitive on a regional basis. At the same
time, deregulation of the banking industry has increased the opportunities to
offer new types of financial services and enhanced the potential for competition
from savings and loan associations, insurance companies, brokerage firms, and
other nonbank financial institutions.
The market in which Keystone's banking subsidiaries operate is considered
competitive. Banks and bank holding companies with significant operations in
the Keystone market areas range in size from less than $100 million to over $50
billion in assets.
In addition to commercial banks, competitors for loans, deposits, and other
services include savings and loan associations, insurance companies, finance
companies, credit unions, brokerage houses, direct lending by federal and state
governments, and a proliferation of other types of financial institutions.
Keystone differentiates itself from its financial institution competitors by
managing its operating banks under a "supercommunity banking" structure. Under
this structure, the operating banks of Keystone maintain local management
presence to ensure close personal service and local decision-making on the
issues which directly affect the customer. At the same time, this structure
allows Keystone to standardize products and services and centralize a
significant portion of operations, data processing, and other functions which
are less directly related to customer contact. This approach enables Keystone
to effect improved cost management through economies of scale derived from
standardization and centralization of these functions. In summary, Keystone
believes that it derives a competitive advantage from this approach by providing
personal, localized service in a cost efficient manner.
5
<PAGE>
Although Keystone expects that competition will increase as a result of the
factors described herein, the effects thereof, if any, on Keystone are not
readily ascertainable.
Regulation and Supervision of Bank Holding Companies
Keystone is subject to regulation under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956. A
bank holding company is required to file annual reports and other information
concerning its business operations and those of its subsidiaries with the
Federal Reserve Board. A bank holding company and each of its subsidiaries are
also subject to examination by the Federal Reserve Board.
The Bank Holding Company Act requires the prior approval of the Federal Reserve
Board in any case where a bank holding company proposes to acquire direct or
indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any bank
(unless it already owns a majority of such bank's voting shares), to merge or
consolidate with any other bank holding company or to acquire all or
substantially all of the assets of any bank. The Act further provides that the
Federal Reserve Board shall not approve any such acquisition of voting shares or
assets or any such merger or consolidation: (i) that would result in a monopoly
or would be in furtherance of any combination or conspiracy to monopolize or
attempt to monopolize the business of banking in any part of the United States
or (ii) the effect of which may be substantially to lessen competition or to
tend to create a monopoly in any section of the country, or that in any other
manner would be in restraint of trade, unless the anticompetitive effects of
the proposed transaction are clearly outweighed in the public interest by the
probable effect of the transaction in meeting the convenience and needs of the
community to be served.
The Bank Holding Company Act prohibits a bank holding company from engaging in,
or from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the
voting shares of any company engaged in nonbanking activities unless the Federal
Reserve Board, by order or regulation, has found such activities to be so
closely related to banking or to managing or controlling banks as to be a proper
incident thereto. The Federal Reserve Board has by regulation determined that
certain activities are so closely related to banking or to managing or
controlling banks as to permit bank holding companies and subsidiaries formed
for the purpose to engage in such activities, subject to Board approval in
certain cases. These activities include operating a mortgage, consumer finance,
credit card, or factoring company; servicing loans and other extensions of
credit; providing certain investment and financial advice; leasing personal
property; providing certain bookkeeping or financially-oriented data processing
services; acting as an insurance agent for certain types of credit-related
insurance and discount brokerage.
6
<PAGE>
Keystone Financial, Inc., is an affiliate of each of its subsidiary banks within
the meaning of the Federal Reserve Act (Act). As an affiliate, Keystone is
subject to certain restrictions imposed by the Act on extensions of credit by
the banks to Keystone, on investment in the stock or other securities of
Keystone by the banks and on the taking of such stock or securities as
collateral for loans to any borrower. Further, under the Bank Holding Company
Act and the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board, a bank holding company and
its subsidiaries are prohibited from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in
connection with any extension of credit, lease or sale of any property or the
furnishing of services.
The Federal Reserve Board has adopted capital adequacy guidelines under which it
assesses the adequacy of capital in examining and supervising a bank holding
company and in analyzing applications filed with the Board. In 1989, the
Federal Reserve Board issued new risk-based capital adequacy guidelines that
were fully phased-in at the end of 1992. Keystone is in compliance with all
existing capital adequacy guidelines, including the risk-based guidelines. For
a discussion of these capital adequacy guidelines and Keystone's capital
position, reference is made to the caption "Shareholders' Equity", contained
within the Financial Review section of Exhibit No. 13.1 .
Regulation and Supervision of Banks
The banking subsidiaries of Keystone include both state-chartered banks (Mid-
State Bank and Trust Company and Northern Central Bank) and banks chartered
under the laws of the United States (Pennsylvania National Bank, American Trust
Bank, N.A., and Frankford Bank, N.A.). Keystone's state-chartered banks are
under the supervision of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) while the federally-chartered banks are
supervised by the Office of the Comptroller of Currency (OCC). The supervisory
agencies conduct regular examinations of the banks. All of the Keystone banking
subsidiaries are federally-insured by the FDIC. In addition, the banks are
subject, in certain instances, to the regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.
The areas of operation of Keystone's subsidiary banks which are subject to
regulation by federal and state laws, regulations and regulatory agencies
include reserves against deposits, maximum interest rates for specific classes
of loans, truth-in-lending disclosure, permissible types of loans and
investments, trust operations, issuance of securities, and payment of dividends.
In addition, the FDIC and OCC have issued to state nonmember banks and national
banks, respectively, capital adequacy and risk-based capital guidelines similar
to those adopted by the Federal Reserve Board for bank holding companies as
referred to above. Keystone's subsidiary banks are in compliance with all such
guidelines.
7
<PAGE>
As federally-insured banks, the state-chartered banks of Keystone must obtain
the prior approval of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and the FDIC before
establishing any new branch banking office. The nationally-chartered banks must
obtain approval of the OCC and, to a limited extent, the Pennsylvania Department
of Banking. Mergers of banks or thrifts located in Pennsylvania, Maryland, and
West Virginia are subject to the prior approval of one or more of the following:
The applicable state department of banking, the FDIC, the Federal Reserve Board,
the OCC, or the Office of Thrift Supervision. The approvals depend upon several
factors, including whether the merged institution is a federally insured state
bank, a member of the Federal Reserve System or a national bank or federal
savings bank.
As affiliates of Keystone, the banks are subject to provisions of the Federal
Reserve Act which restrict the ability of banks to extend credit to affiliates,
to invest in the stock or securities thereof, or to take such stock or
securities as collateral for loans to any borrower.
The business and earnings of the banks are affected by the monetary policies of
the Federal Reserve Board which regulates the money supply in order to influence
rates of inflation and economic growth. Among the techniques used to implement
these objectives are open market dealings in United States Government
securities, changes in the discount rate for bank borrowings from the Federal
Reserve Banks and changes in the reserve requirements against bank deposits and
borrowings. Changes in these policies can influence to a significant degree the
overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and deposits, the
interest rates charged by banks on loans and the cost to banks of obtaining
funds, as well as the ability of banks to compete for loans and for funds with
other types of financial institutions.
The Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act (FIRREA) was
signed into law in 1989. FIRREA primarily affects the regulation of savings
associations (thrifts) and savings and loan holding companies, rather than the
regulation of commercial banks and bank holding companies. However, FIRREA does
contain a number of provisions affecting banks and bank holding companies, such
as provisions affecting thrift acquisitions, liability of commonly controlled
depository institutions, receivership and conservatorship rights and procedures,
increased deposit insurance premiums and substantially increased penalties for
violation of banking statutes, regulations and orders.
In 1991, Congress enacted the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement
Act (FDICIA). This law has established a new framework for the relationship
between insured depository institutions and the various regulatory bodies. For
a discussion of FDICIA and associated regulations, reference is made to the
caption "Regulatory Matters", contained within the Financial
8
<PAGE>
Review section of Exhibit No. 13.1.
Changing conditions in the economy and in the financial industry can be expected
to continue to result in changes in legislation and regulatory policies which
will affect the business of banks and competition between banks and among banks
and other types of financial institutions.

Management Stock Ownership
Program
Keystone Financial, Inc.
----------
Effective March 30, 1995
<PAGE>
Keystone Financial, Inc.
Management Stock Ownership Program
Effective: March 30, 1995
----------
Purpose
- - -------
The purpose of this Program is to:
. Promote alignment of management and shareholder interests;
. Encourage management to act like owners with focus on value creation;
. Make the risks and rewards of KFI stock ownership a greater factor
in management compensation;
. Improve relations with shareholders and the public; and
. Attract and retain superior management.
Share Ownership Guidelines
- - --------------------------
The Human Resources Committee of the Board shall determine those employees
who are subject to this Program. Initially, the Program will apply to
employees with a position of Senior Vice President or above. Each employee
subject to this Program is herein referred to as an "Executive."
Ownership of Keystone Financial, Inc. ("KFI") stock should represent a
significant percentage of each Executive's net worth. Each Executive should
meet or exceed, on or before the Target Date (as hereinafter defined), the
following value of share ownership ("Ownership Goal"), as amended from time to
time by the Human Resources Committee.
-------------------------------------------------------
Value of Shares Owned as a
Position Multiple of Base Salary
-------- -----------------------
CEO 3x
EVP 2x
Bank/Trust Co.
President 1x
Sr VP 1/2x
-------------------------------------------------------
<PAGE>
For purposes of the Ownership Goal, Base Salary means the base salary
of an Executive of KFI or one of its subsidiaries in effect on the Executive's
Commencement Date (as defined below).
Implementation
- - --------------
Time Allotted to Attain Ownership Goals.
Ownership Goals will be established by the Human Resources Committee
for five year cycles that begin on a Commencement Date and end on a Target
Date. Each Executive's Commencement Date shall be the later of (i) the
effective date of this Program, (ii) the Executive's employment in a
covered position, or (iii) the Executive's transfer to a covered position
with a different multiple for determining his or her Ownership Goal. The
Target Date is the fifth anniversary of the Commencement Date. Each
Executive is expected to make regular progress toward his or her Ownership
Goal throughout the five year cycle. The Human Resources Committee, upon
recommendation of the CEO but in its sole discretion, may modify the
application of this Program to address special circumstances, including
financial circumstances, of any Executive.
Measurement of Stock Ownership.
For purposes of calculating the number of shares owned by an Executive
under the Program, the following will be included:
. 401(k) matching shares;
. Employee Stock Purchase Plan shares;
. Shares owned as a result of exercising stock option grants;
. Restricted shares awarded to the Executive;
. Shares owned directly by the Executive;
. Shares owned directly by the Executive's spouse or dependent
children; and
. Shares owned by any trust in which the Executive, his or her
Spouse or dependents has a beneficial interest in the principal
thereof, but excluding any pension plan trust.
The Human Resources Committee may count toward an Executive's Ownership
Goal any additional shares in which the Executive has an interest
provided, in the discretion of the Human Resources Committee, such
interest satisfies the purpose of this Program.
- 2 -
<PAGE>
Strategies to Assist Executive to Attain Ownership Goals.
KFI will assist each Executive to attain and maintain his or her
Ownership Goal as follows:
Informal Methods.
-----------------
. Provide leadership by example of the CEO and other key executives;
. Establish progress toward Ownership Goal as a prerequisite for
career advancement and for future long-term incentive stock option
grants; and
. Annually furnish to and review with each Executive the Executive's
current stock ownership level.
Existing Programs.
------------------
. Employee Stock Purchase Plan;
. Incentive stock options;
. Non-qualified stock options;
. Reload options; and
. Restricted stock.
Additional Programs.
--------------------
. Payment of MICP awards in restricted stock; and
. Leveraged Purchase Program.
Payment of MICP Awards in Restricted Stock.
If an Executive requests, or if in the opinion of the Human Resources
Committee, the Executive is not making regular progress toward his or her
Ownership Goal, the Human Resources Committee, in its discretion, may
(i) pay in restricted stock instead of cash up to the lesser of one-third
(1/3) of the Executive's Management Incentive Compensation Plan award or
the portion of such award not previously deferred, and (ii) limit or
eliminate the Executive's opportunity to defer more than two-thirds (2/3)
of any future award. If an award is made in restricted stock, an
additional award of restricted stock will be made having a value of 20% of
the value of the restricted stock initially awarded, in order to partially
pay the Executive's tax liability. The restricted stock awarded shall vest
as determined by the Human Resources Committee but not later than the
Target Date.
- 3 -
<PAGE>
Leveraged Purchase Program.
Executives may borrow from KFI to purchase shares of KFI stock
upon the following terms and conditions:
Maximum Loan Amount. An Executive may borrow up to 50% of the
--------------------
value of his or her Ownership Goal.
Use of Loan Proceeds. Loan proceeds must be used to purchase KFI
---------------------
stock and shall not be used for any other purpose, including the
payment of tax liability resulting from any other KFI stock benefit
or incentive program.
Number of Loans. An Executive may borrow additional amounts from
----------------
time to time, but not more frequently than once in any six-month
period. The aggregate principal amount outstanding under all such
loans to an Executive shall not exceed 50% of his or her Ownership
Goal.
Term. The loans shall be due and payable in full upon demand or, in
-----
the absence of demand, shall mature and be payable in full on the
Target Date. An Executive may prepay all or any part of the loan
without penalty, but not more frequently than twice in any
twelve-month period.
Interest. The loans shall bear no interest. Any resulting imputed
---------
income to the Executive will be determined in accordance with
Section 7872 of the Internal Revenue Code and reported annually on
the Executive's Form W-2.
Collateral. The loans shall be nonrecourse against the borrower.
-----------
The Executive shall pledge as collateral for the loan cash,
unencumbered KFI shares, or other property acceptable to KFI in an
amount equal to 20% of the loan amount and also shall pledge all of
the KFI shares purchased with the loan proceeds. In the event of a
reclassification, readjustment or split of KFI stock, stock dividend,
exchange of KFI stock for any other security, or any other change
affecting the shares pledged, the new, substituted or additional
shares or other securities issued by reason of such event shall be
held by KFI under the terms of the pledge agreement. All loans
outstanding under this Program shall cross-default. If the Executive
prepays the full principal amount of one or more loans, KFI shall
release the collateral relating to such loan or loans. The Executive
may direct at any time prior to the Target Date that the shares held
as security for any loan be sold to satisfy such loan. The Executive
also may direct KFI to apply pledged property, including KFI shares,
to
- 4 -
<PAGE>
exercise on behalf of the Executive such options to purchase KFI
stock as are designated by the Executive. KFI stock or other
property received upon exercise of an option having a fair market
value equal to the fair market value of the Collateral used to
exercise such option will be held by KFI as substitute Collateral.
Additional Security. In the event the fair market value as
--------------------
determined by KFI of the collateral pledged for any loan made
pursuant to this Program should be less than the outstanding
principal balance of the loan, the Human Resources Committee may
direct that up to 50% of any MICP award of the borrower not
previously deferred by the borrower be paid in cash or stock and
withheld by KFI as additional collateral for the repayment of the
loan. Any or all of the amount held as additional collateral
hereunder shall be released and paid to the borrower to the extent
the fair market value of the other collateral held hereunder as of
the last day of each calendar quarter is again equal to at least 100%
of the outstanding loan balance. To permit withholding of the
borrower's MICP award, the borrower shall execute at the time a loan
is requested an irrevocable election which (i) acknowledges the
decision of the borrower to waive the right to defer any future MICP
award at any time the Human Resources Committee determines additional
collateral may be necessary to secure the loan, (ii) authorizes the
Human Resources Committee to direct the delivery of up to 50% of any
future MICP award to KFI, and (iii) directs that any portion of a
MICP award so withheld be held pursuant to the borrower's collateral
pledge agreement.
Documentation. The Executive will execute and deliver to KFI such
--------------
documents as KFI deems appropriate, which may include, but not be
limited to, a promissory note, stock pledge agreement, stock powers
in favor of Keystone Financial, Inc., and such other documents as are
required under Regulation G of the Federal Reserve Board. The
Executive shall deliver to KFI stock certificates representing all
shares pledged.
Termination of Employment. If an Executive ceases employment for any
--------------------------
reason including retirement or disability, all loans outstanding
under this Program shall be due and payable in full within ninety
(90) days after the Executive's last day of active employment or, if
earlier, the Target Date. Such Executive may not take further loans
under this program. Notwithstanding the forgoing, in the event of
the Executive's death, all outstanding loans will be due and payable
one (1) year after death and, if necessary, the loan maturity date
will be extended accordingly.
- 5 -
<PAGE>
Termination of Program. This program may be terminated, or its terms
-----------------------
and conditions changed, at any time, at the discretion of the Board
of Directors of KFI without notice to the Executives; provided,
however, that loans outstanding at that time, and the terms thereof,
will not be affected by any such termination or change, except as
required by law or by the provisions of the KFI 1995 Management Stock
Purchase Plan.
Administration
- - --------------
Recordkeeping.
KFI's Human Resources Department ("Human Resources") will monitor
stock ownership levels of the Executives.
Calculations. Calculations of shares owned will be completed
-------------
annually. An Executive will make available to Human Resources, upon
request, documentation necessary to verify the number of shares
owned. Share price for purposes of comparing the Executive's share
holdings against his or her Ownership Goal will be based upon the
average of closing stock prices, as listed in the Wall Street Journal
-------------------
for the last fifteen (15) business days prior to the Target Date or
the end of the month immediately preceding the month in which share
ownership is calculated, as applicable.
Reports. A report of the stock ownership of each Executive compared
--------
to his or her pro rata achievement of the Ownership Goal will be
prepared and furnished to that Executive. A summary report will be
prepared and furnished to the CEO and other officers, as appropriate.
Administration.
The Human Resources Committee shall administer this Program and
interpret its provisions. The Committee's interpretation shall be binding
on all parties subject to this Program.
The Human Resources Committee may amend or terminate this Program, in
whole or in part, as is necessary from time to time to fulfill the purpose
of this Program; provided that no change shall reduce or eliminate any
benefit, right or privilege hereunder except to the extent such reduction
or elimination is necessary to comply with any law or an interpretation of
the governmental body empowered to administer such law.
- 6 -
<PAGE>
The CEO, at the fall meeting of the Human Resources Committee, will
review the summary report with the Committee and recommend action, as
necessary, to assist any Executive achieve his or her Ownership Goal.
The Committee will take appropriate action to ensure compliance with the
ownership requirements as it deems appropriate.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
- - ----------------
The purpose of this review is to provide additional information necessary to
fully understand the consolidated financial condition and results of operations
of Keystone Financial, Inc. (Keystone). Throughout this review, net interest
income and the yield on earning assets are stated on a fully taxable-equivalent
basis. In addition, balances represent daily average balances, unless otherwise
indicated.
During the fourth quarter of 1995, Keystone completed the mergers of Shawnee
Financial Services Corporation (Shawnee), and National American Bancorp, Inc.
(NAB) , the parent companies of The Everett Bank and The First National Bank of
Bradford County, respectively. These mergers have provided further
concentration of Keystone's market presence in areas currently served by its
Mid-State Bank and Northern Central Bank subsidiaries. The principal banking
units of these institutions have been merged into Keystone's existing banking
subsidiaries and added total assets of $229 million and 14 offices to Keystone's
expanding banking network. Both transactions were accounted for as immaterial
poolings-of-interests and, accordingly, Keystone's results of operations for
prior periods have not been restated. In addition, Keystone also completed the
acquisition of Martindale Andres & Company (Martindale Andres), a Philadelphia-
area investment management firm on November 30, 1995. This acquisition
represents an expansion of Keystone's ability to provide sophisticated asset
management services to high net worth individuals. Through this acquisition,
Keystone expanded its customer base within the suburban Philadelphia market and,
at the same time, increased its ability to serve its existing asset management
customers.
1995 SUMMARY
Performance Results
- - -------------------
Keystone's 1995 net income grew to $61,314,000 compared to $51,359,000, an
increase of 19.4%. Likewise, earnings per share grew to $2.59 versus $2.20 in
1994, an increase of 17.7%. Results in 1994 included a $7,000,000 pre-tax
charge related to the acquisition of Frankford Bank and a restructuring charge
associated with the consolidation of certain back-office loan and deposit
activities. Even after adjusting for the impact of the special charges in 1994,
earnings per share improved approximately 7.5% in 1995. Return on average
assets (ROA) and return on average equity (ROE), which are the traditional
measures of overall financial institution performance, reached 1.29% and 14.06%,
respectively, in 1995 and compared favorably with the ROA of 1.27% and ROE of
13.87% in 1994, as adjusted for the aforementioned charges.
The improvement in core profitability achieved in 1995 can be attributed to
several factors. Net interest income, which is Keystone's largest revenue
source, grew 4.2% despite the effect of higher average interest rates on funding
costs, which grew at a pace faster than the growth in asset yields. Strong loan
demand was also an essential ingredient to improved levels of net interest
income. Keystone's continued strength in overall asset quality, including a
reduced level of net charge-offs, resulted in a lower provision for credit
losses. Significant growth occurred in the area of noninterest revenue,
particularly in secondary market activities. Increases included fees from the
origination and servicing of mortgage loans as well as gains from the
securitization and sale of both mortgages and indirect automobile loans. Net of
security transactions, noninterest revenues rose nearly 12%. The final major
component of performance relates to noninterest expenses. Expenses in 1995
were favorably influenced by the reduction in the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (FDIC) insurance premium, while 1994 expenses had been affected by
the aforementioned charges. Excluding the impact of these
2
<PAGE>
items in both 1995 and 1994, noninterest expenses grew about 6%,
as a result of the continuing investment in technology and infrastructure
necessary to meet customer demands and competitive challenges.
Strategic Focus
- - ---------------
Keystone began 1995 with a two-pronged strategic focus designed to expand its
ability to meet the financial services needs of its customers and, at the same
time, create a lower cost operating structure. Building a financial services
company poised to meet the challenges brought on by elevated customer demands
for improved financial services and by an increasingly competitive market place
will be critical to long-term success. These strategies are intended to
simultaneously sustain earnings momentum while making appropriate investments in
the future.
The impact of Keystone's strategic focus, which includes the expansion of
financial services revenues and control over operating expenses, influenced
profit performance during 1995. The expansion of financial services included a
deepening of existing customer relationships, emergence into new markets, and
the development of innovative financial products, all of which resulted in
growth in both net interest income and noninterest revenues. A critical
component of the revenue enhancement strategy included the development of
Keystone's "Relationship Manager" approach, a program designed to ensure the
delivery of differentiated financial services to a customer base whose needs are
well understood through local market knowledge and extensive market-based
research. Another critical component is the expansion of electronic banking
services which has paved the way for new and innovative financial products such
as the "Keycheck" debit card, which provides a new payment/delivery mechanism,
and "Key Cash Manager" which allows business customers direct access to their
accounts through personal computers.
Another indicia of Keystone's focus on financial services expansion included
efforts to increase revenues from fee-based services. During 1995, substantial
progress was made in the expansion of mortgage banking services, reaffirming
Keystone's decision to form a separate mortgage company in 1993. Loan
specialists, who are now strategically located within community offices
throughout Keystone's operating territory, have provided a level of expertise
necessary to guide customers through an increasingly complex array of mortgage
product offerings. Likewise, initiatives designed to expand trust and other
asset management services included services available through the "Key Investor"
program and through the acquisition of Martindale Andres.
While revenue expansion opportunities remain critical to long-term success, so
too are management efforts to create a lower-cost operating structure. The
cornerstone of management's 1995 efforts included the completion of the loan and
deposit operations consolidation. This effort, which resulted in centralization
of substantially all back-office loan and deposit support functions, is expected
to provide even greater efficiencies. While consolidation was completed in
1995, continuous review and improvement of back-office operations under this
structure will allow for an ongoing reevaluation of the efficiency of back-
office processes. Furthermore, the consolidation will provide a standardized
platform designed to support the activities of acquired banks in future years.
Keystone continues to make the appropriate human resource and capital
investments necessary to improve productivity, promote efficiency, and provide
the technology and product base needed to meet future competitive challenges.
Expenditures associated with the growth of electronic banking activities and the
expansion of "Keystone's Visionary Offices" were designed to facilitate customer
service and convenience while, at the same time, promoting more cost-effective
alternate delivery channel.

Economic and Industry Trends
- - ----------------------------
Financial performance in 1995 was also affected by external economic and
interest rate factors. Economic conditions at the beginning of 1995 were
influenced by the momentum from unexpectedly strong 1994 performance. The Dow
Jones industrial average, which is the traditional measure of equity market
performance, was buoyed by the strength of the 1994 economy and exceeded the
4,000 level in the first quarter of 1995. Inflation fears, which had influenced
Federal Reserve interest rate policy in the first half of 1995, began to subside
midway through the year and interest rates declined slightly. The economy,
which had shown sustained strength since 1992, began to moderate, resulting in
signs of a decline in overall consumer confidence, particularly toward the end
of the year. The slowdown in the economic growth, however, failed to discourage
the equity markets as the Dow Jones industrial average rose beyond the 5,000
benchmark at the end of the year. Continued strong corporate profits, moderate
inflationary pressures, and the resultant easing of interest rates in the later
half of 1995 continued to propel investor optimism. The ebb in consumer
confidence, which began toward the end of the year, is expected to be compounded
by consumer credit concerns as we begin 1996. Simultaneously, lower interest
rates, and the allure of equity markets, will continue to increase the pressure
on the banking industry's ability to raise funding through traditional deposit
products.
Performance Outlook
- - -------------------
Keystone's performance beyond 1995 will continue to be influenced by the success
of its strategic focus as well as its ability to respond to the challenges of an
ever-changing economy, expanding customer needs, and increasing competition.
Keystone will continue to position itself to meet these challenges by sustaining
a thorough understanding of its customer base, development of innovative
products and services, and the continued evolution of more efficient customer
delivery channels.
NET INTEREST INCOME
The primary source of Keystone's revenue is net interest income, which
represents the difference between interest on earning assets and interest
expense on deposits and other borrowed funds. Net interest margin is net
interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets. Net
interest income and net interest margin are affected by changes in interest
rates, changes in the relationship between rates, and by variations in asset and
liability balances and mix. The following table summarizes changes in net
interest income and margin during 1995 (in thousands):

Interest Rates and Economic Trends
- - ----------------------------------
The performance of financial institutions is inexorably linked to the ebb and
flow of the economic cycle and to the general pattern of interest rates. Since
1992, the U.S. economy has experienced an extended period of expansion,
accompanied by a precipitous decline in the overall level of interest rates. The
decline in rates was accompanied by unprecedented wide spreads between the
yields on earning assets and the cost of funding sources, resulting in a general
expansion of bank net interest margins since 1992. At the same time, the pattern
of lower interest rates resulted in inexpensive credit terms which fueled a
general increase in consumer loan demand. These same lower rates contributed to
a dramatic decline in the rates offered on deposit products, which served to
increase the pressure on financial institutions ability to sustain funding
sources.
As 1995 unfolded, the pace of economic expansion began to subside and the
economy entered a period of more moderate economic growth accompanied by low
inflationary levels. In mid-year, the Federal Reserve, less concerned over
inflationary pressures, began to reverse its trend of periodic tightening of
interest rates and a pattern of periodic easing emerged. Although interest rates
dropped below the levels in place at the beginning of 1995, average short-term
and intermediate rates for the year remained above the average rates experienced
during 1994. At the same time, average rates for instruments with maturity
intervals over two years declined from 1994 levels and resulted in a flattening
of the yield curve. The following graphical presentation, which presents the
average yield curve for U.S. Treasury instruments for maturity intervals between
three months and thirty years, illustrates the impact of these dynamic trends.
Yield Curve Comparison
Note: A graph was presented in the Annual Report, the points of which are as
follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Three Six One Two Three Five Ten Thirty
Months Months Year Years Years Years Years Years
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C>
1995 5.63% 5.80% 5.92% 6.12% 6.22% 6.36% 6.55% 6.86%
1994 4.36 4.83 5.33 5.96 6.27 6.71 7.10 7.39
</TABLE>
The impact of these trends was to raise both the yield on earning assets and
increase the cost of funding sources as the majority of Keystone's assets and
funding sources are priced from interest rate indices with maturity levels under
two years. Furthermore, the pace of rate changes in a rising interest rate
environment resulted in accelerated repricing of Keystone's funding sources as
compared to the repricing of its earning assets. Consequently, while both the
yield on earning assets and the cost of funding sources rose during 1995, the
rate environment caused funding costs to increase at a pace much faster than
that of earning asset yields and resulted in the expected compression of net
interest margin. While interest rates were a significant influence on increased
funding costs, pricing competition from both bank and nonbank competitors also
contributed to the upward pressure on deposit rates.
5
<PAGE>
Despite the effect of these factors on the compression of net interest margin,
Keystone was able to achieve net interest income growth. While the net interest
margin declined from 4.63% in 1994 to 4.49% in 1995, net interest income grew
from $194,722,000 to $202,970,000 in the same period, a growth rate of 4.2%.
Interest Income/Earning Assets
- - ------------------------------
Interest income rose to $369,549,000 in 1995, and reflected a 15.6% improvement
from the $319,506,000 recorded in 1994. Excluding the impact of merger and
acquisition activity on year-to-year performance, the increase in interest
income attributable to internal growth was 13.1%. As noted earlier, while
interest rate levels declined during 1995, average rates for the year were above
the average rates experienced during 1994 for maturity levels under two years.
Since a high percentage of Keystone's assets are tied to indices with underlying
maturity levels under two years, overall asset yields increased from 1994. This
trend also included a "flattening" of the overall yield curve as longer-term
indices declined from 1994 levels and provided little opportunity or incentive
to extend maturities as a strategy to achieve higher yields.
The increase in earning asset yields, while partially driven by a pattern of
higher rates, was also influenced by absolute increases in the volume of earning
assets, and by the favorable effect of an improved mix of earning assets. In
fact, the growth in interest income was equally attributable to the improvement
of the volume of earning assets and the increase in interest rates. For example,
in 1994 loans comprised approximately 69% of total earning assets while in 1995,
the mix of loans to earning assets rose to almost 73%. Alternatively, the
investment portfolio, which was almost 29% of earning asset totals in 1994,
dropped to approximately 25% in 1995. The change in earning asset mix served to
increase yields pursuant to the relative growth of higher-yielding loans.
Further, loan totals included an increased mix of higher-yielding consumer
leases and credit lines which contributed significantly to the improvement in
yields. Growth also occurred in commercial real estate lending and in the volume
of consumer adjustable-rate mortgages. The overall growth in loan balances was
achieved despite the impact of securitization and sale of both fixed-rate
mortgage loans and indirect consumer automobile loans. This securitization
strategy, which provides both added liquidity capacity and an ongoing loan
servicing revenue stream, was an important component of Keystone's overall
asset/liability management practices in 1995. Additionally, liquidity capacity
to support loan growth was provided by maturing investment instruments and by
the growth in deposit funding sources.
Interest Expense/Funding Sources
- - --------------------------------
The interest rate trends of the past two years, the strength and attractiveness
of the equity markets, and the expansion of consumer investment alternatives,
have hampered the banking industry's ability to generate higher levels of
deposit growth. As a consequence of these factors and the continued need for
additional funding to support loan growth, banks have generally experienced
higher funding costs.
The cost of funds rose to 4.42% for 1995 compared to 3.55% in 1994, an increase
of 87 basis points, while the yield on earning assets rose only 60 basis points.
The increase in funding costs was also influenced by changes in deposit mix.
Consumer impatience with the low relative rates offered on both money market and
traditional savings deposits, motivated customers to take opportunities to
improve returns by extending maturities and to take advantage of new product
offerings that are more responsive to changes in interest rates. The most
significant growth occurred in certificates of deposit in maturities of between
18-47 months, which grew over $220 million, or 55.7%. Additionally, the variable
rate CD, which was introduced in 1994, rose over $120 million, or 118%. These
growth trends were driven by the reductions in NOW, money market, and saving
deposits. Keystone also experienced growth in large certificates of deposit,
IRAs, and FHLB borrowings.

Net Interest Spread and Net Interest Margin
- - -------------------------------------------
The single largest source of revenue in financial institutions is net interest
income which for Keystone was 80.1% of combined net interest income and
noninterest revenues for 1995, versus 81.4% in the prior year. The difference
between the yield on earning assets and the cost of funding sources is known as
interest spread. Net interest margin includes the effect of interest spread, the
investment of noninterest bearing funds, and the level of nonearning assets. In
1995, interest spread compressed by 27 basis points as the difference between
earning asset yields and the cost of fund sources went from 4.04% in 1994 to
3.77% in 1995. The increase in noninterest-bearing funds, which was influenced
by both higher reinvestment rates and increased demand deposit balances,
contributed 72 basis points to net interest margin versus 59 basis points in
1994. This served to partially offset the compression of net interest spread.
The effect of these changes was a reduction in net interest margin of 14 basis
points, from 4.63% in 1994 to 4.49% in 1995.

================================================================
</TABLE>
In reviewing quarterly performance, net interest margin narrowed significantly
in both the second and third quarters of 1995 in part due to an adjustment
necessary for an overaccrual of loan fees in prior periods. These adjustments
served to reduce third and second quarter net interest margin by 7 and 6 basis
points, respectively.
7
<PAGE>
The above presentation serves to illustrate the dramatic impact of higher
average interest rates, particularly on funding costs which rose 114 basis
points from 3.34% in the first quarter of 1994 to 4.48% in the fourth quarter of
1995. During the same period, earning asset yields rose only 80 basis points
from 7.38% to 8.18%, thus contributing to the decline in net interest spread and
net interest margin.
PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES
- - ---------------------------
The provision for credit losses declined from $9,484,000 in 1994 to $7,859,000
in 1995, a reduction of $1,625,000. The reduction in the loan loss provision was
responsive to an overall reduction in net charge-offs, which declined by
$2,464,000 from 1994 to 1995. At the same time, other important asset quality
performance measures, such as the relationship of the reserve for credit losses
to loans and the ratio of total risk elements to year-end loans remained stable.
See the Allowance for Credit Losses and Asset Quality section of this review
for additional information.
NONINTEREST INCOME
- - ------------------
Keystone's evolution into a full-service financial services company dramatically
influenced the rate of growth in noninterest revenues. Keystone has steadily
expanded its focus on financial services, including the establishment of a
separate specialized mortgage banking company, which now provides a major source
of noninterest revenue to Keystone. Other strategies which commenced in 1995
included Keystone's entry into the securitization of indirect automobile loans.
This effort will enable Keystone to be a consistent supplier of funds to meet
the credit needs of automobile buyers. Primarily as a consequence of these
efforts, noninterest revenues, excluding security gains, grew 11.9% from 1994 to
1995 and represented 19.3% of total combined net interest income and noninterest
revenues, compared to 18.3% in 1994.
In mid-1993, Keystone formed Keystone Financial Mortgage Company, a wholly-owned
subsidiary established to provide a more strategically-focused approach to the
mortgage banking business. The mortgage company was established with a mandate
to concentrate efforts on the more sustainable origination and servicing
segments of the business rather than cyclical refinancing activities. Results in
1995 were reflective of Keystone's successful implementation of this strategy as
revenues more than doubled from $3,868,000 in 1994 to $7,807,000 in 1995.
Keystone's efforts to develop this important customer service were aided by
reductions in long-term interest rates, which served to spur demand for mortgage
products. Keystone's strategy has included the development of loan specialists
who are located throughout the community office delivery system. These
specialists have been thoroughly trained to enable them to lead customers
through the maze of complex mortgage products now available in the marketplace.
Keystone originated approximately $217,274,000 of mortgage loans in 1995, a
substantial portion of which were securitized and sold into the secondary
market, with servicing retained by Keystone. These servicing rights will provide
Keystone with an important recurring revenue stream in years beyond 1995. As of
the end of 1995, Keystone is servicing a total of $520,809,000 of loans which
have been sold in the secondary market.
The growth in secondary market activities included a gain of $900,000 from the
securitization of approximately $66 million of indirect automobile loans. This
indirect securitization strategy will allow Keystone to provide a consistent
source of automobile financing to customers serviced throughout the Keystone
network of automobile dealers. Additionally, this strategy will aide
asset/liability management by providing another readily accessible source of
funding.
Trust and asset management revenues are generated primarily from personal trust
and employee benefit management services. In 1994, Keystone sold the corporate
trust segment of its trust business, which consisted primarily of services
associated with municipal bond issues. The sale of this business
8
<PAGE>
segment allowed Keystone to focus on more profitable components of its business
in 1995. Although annual revenues from corporate trust services comprised only a
small portion of overall trust services, revenues during 1995 represented the
first full-year impact of the loss of revenue from this business segment. After
adjusting 1994 revenues to exclude fees from corporate trust activities, trust
income reflected a 7% growth from 1994 to 1995, as trust income grew to
$12,202,000. Many of Keystone's strategic initiatives, including both the
"Relationship Manager" program and the acquisition of Martindale Andres, were
designed to support future expansion of this important customer service-based
revenue source.
Service charges on deposit accounts, which remain the largest source of
noninterest revenues, grew 4.8% from $12,606,000 in 1994 to $13,205,000 in 1995.
Keystone's fee schedules for both commercial and retail depositors are monitored
constantly to ensure that such fees are both competitive and reflective of the
value provided. Over the last several years, each of the Keystone banks has
undergone formal external review of its fee structures, which resulted in the
implementation of recommended price and structure changes in 1995.
Excluding secondary market revenue, the largest increase in noninterest revenues
occurred in fee income which includes revenue from credit card activities, fees
from electronic banking services, and brokerage fees. Fee income grew about 28%
from $9,762,000 in 1994 to $12,490,000 in 1995. During 1995, growth was
particularly strong in credit card activities, primarily the generation of
merchant income, and in fees generated from consumer use of electronic services
such as ATMs and debit cards. During 1995, Keystone banks introduced the
"Keycheck" card, a debit card designed to have the advantages of traditional ATM
access along with the added convenience of direct access to deposit balances.
Other income declined from $3,383,000 in 1994 to $1,253,000 in 1995, a decrease
of $2,130,000. Results in 1994 had been influenced primarily by the gain of $1.2
million attributable to the aforementioned sale of the corporate trust business.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
- - -------------------
Noninterest expenses remained constant in 1995 at $150,634,000 compared to
$151,723,000 in 1994. While 1995 expenses were favorably affected by a reduction
in the premium from FDIC insurance, performance in 1994 had been negatively
impacted by merger expenses and by a restructuring charge. In 1994, pre-tax
charges associated with mergers were approximately $4,500,000, while expenses
associated with restructuring certain loan and deposit activities totalled
$2,500,000. In 1995, changes to the assessment methodology for FDIC premiums
were mandated by FDICIA and the realization of a fully-funded bank insurance
fund resulted in a premium refund in the third quarter followed by a reduced
assessment in the fourth quarter. Keystone, as a consequence of its status as a
"well-capitalized" financial institution, now enjoys the lowest available
premium assessment rate, which is expected to further reduce premium expense in
1996. Absent the effect of these items, "core"operating expenses rose 6.2%.

The following summary provides a comparison of 1995 and 1994 noninterest
expenses by excluding the favorable impact of reduced FDIC premiums in 1995 and
the unfavorable effect of the merger and restructuring charges in 1994.

</TABLE>
The adjusted 1995 growth rate of "core" operating expenses of 6.2% was
influenced by the impact of the mergers of Shawnee, National American Bancorp,
and Martindale Andres in late 1995, and by the acquisition of American Savings
Bank in late 1994. The incremental noninterest expense increase attributable to
the mergers and acquisitions accounted for approximately one third of the 6.2%
increase in expenses. The remaining increase related to the effect of Keystone's
continuing investment in human resources, technology and infrastructure
necessary to meet both consumer demand for improved service and the ever-
increasing competitive challenges in the banking industry.
The following is a comparison of the individual components of noninterest
expenses, in total, and as adjusted for the merger and restructuring expenses in
1994, and the reduced FDIC premium expense in 1995.

Adjusted salary expenses rose $3,488,000 or 5.9%. The primary driver of the
increase in core salary expenses was an average overall merit increase of 4.5%.
The number of average FTE employees grew from 2,297 to 2,315, or growth of less
than 1% from 1994 to 1995. The increase in full-time equivalent employees was
affected by the number of employees added as a consequence of acquisitions.
10
<PAGE>
Expenses associated with providing employee health care comprise the most
significant component of employee benefit expense. Keystone's proactive effort
to provide innovative and cost-efficient health care coverage resulted in the
evolution of the "Point of Service" program in 1994. This program mandates the
use of "primary care physicians" and "hospital providers" who meet
preestablished standards for the delivery of quality and cost effective health
care. Keystone's health care program alternatives have had a dramatic influence
on the cost of providing health care benefits both to pre-existing employees as
well as employees who have joined Keystone as a consequence of merger and
acquisition activity. Keystone's ability to leverage health care programs over a
larger employee base has been critical to the management of both the quality and
efficiency of providing health care benefits. While Keystone's adoption of its
Point of Service program has favorably influenced health care expenses, Keystone
has also been advantaged by the effect of favorable claims experience. Until
national health care issues are resolved, the management of health care costs
and other benefits provided to the employee base is a perpetual process that
will continue to present challenges and opportunities for innovative solutions.
The most significant relative increase in noninterest expenses occurred in
furniture and equipment expense, which rose 10.5% from $11,257,000 in 1994 to
$12,435,000 in 1995. Keystone's overall strategic plan includes a commitment to
focus on the customer, which will be fulfilled by its ability to attract and
retain employees and by its willingness to make appropriate investment in
technology, training, and infrastructure. Keystone's commitment to improve or
expand service capacity will be a primary ingredient to its ability to meet the
challenges and increasingly complex needs of its customer base. The increase in
this component of overhead had its origin in a number of strategic initiatives
occurring both prior to, and during, 1995. These initiatives included the
expansion of multi-function ATMs and further implementation of the "Keystone
Visionary Office" concept. Likewise, increases in technology expenditures
associated with the loan and deposit consolidation project have minimized the
potential for future increases in more labor-intensive aspects of these
processes. In addition to the implementation of these initiatives, Keystone has
also embarked on several new initiatives which are expected to result in further
increases in equipment expenses in years thereafter. Keystone has undertaken
development of a telephone banking center which is expected to become a focal
point for timely and effective customer access to products and services and to
provide a ready source of customer information.
Occupancy expenses grew 4.2% from $12,134,000 in 1994 to $12,650,000 in 1995.
Future increases in this category of expense, however, are not likely to keep
pace with more cost-effective investments in technology improvements,
particularly in the area of service delivery channels. The changing financial
services landscape, which will continue to emphasize comprehensive and efficient
delivery of products and services, will de-emphasize investment in more
traditional delivery channels such as de-novo community office expansion.
The most significant reduction in noninterest expense occurred in FDIC
insurance, which declined by $3,082,000 from $8,039,000 in 1994 to $4,957,000 in
1995. During the third quarter, the FDIC announced that the Bank Insurance Fund
(BIF) had reached its recapitalization level in May of 1995. As a consequence,
the FDIC issued refunds for the difference between Keystone's previous premium
rate of $0.23 per $100 of deposits and its new rate of $0.04 per $100 of
deposits for the period of May to September of 1995. Additionally, fourth
quarter premiums were reduced to $0.04 per $100 of deposits and contributed to
the overall reduction in FDIC premium expense. In 1996, FDIC premium costs are
expected to be further affected by developments associated with the debate on
the national deficit and its effect on the 1996 budget. The premium payment for
1996 has been suspended for "well-capitalized" institutions pursuant to the
full-funding of the BIF. Finally, concerns continue to exist over the condition
of the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) and the potential impact on
those banks which have acquired SAIF deposits. Under the current proposals,
Keystone, which acquired a limited amount of SAIF deposits in recent years, and
other banks, may be subjected to a one-time SAIF
11
<PAGE>
premium surcharge on these deposits. Congressional and public debate continues
over whether banking institutions, whose acquisition of savings institutions may
have averted a more significant national thrift crisis, may be required to
further assist in the bailout of the SAIF fund through a one-time premium.
The final category of noninterest expenses, other expenses, grew $1,521,000 from
$46,058,000 in 1994, to $47,579,000 in 1995. After adjusting for the impact of
merger expenses in 1994, core expenses grew $4,571,000 or 10.6% in 1995. This
growth in core expenses, however, was attributed, in part, to the increases
associated with revenue enhancement opportunities. For example, credit card
expenses rose $1,349,000, or nearly 30% of the increase in core expenses, but
were accompanied by a 35% rise in credit card and related merchant income.
Likewise, marketing expenses, which were linked to a number of revenue
enhancement initiatives, rose $843,000 during 1995. Other significant increases
occurred in telephone expense, which rose $655,000, and problem loan expense,
which grew by $550,000 from 1994 to 1995. The increase in telephone expenses was
connected to Keystone's continuing use of telecommunications for both customer
convenience and internal management needs. Problem loan expense reflected
expenditures associated with diligent management of problem credits which
influenced the reduction in levels of both nonaccrual loans and net charge-offs.
Income Taxes
- - ------------
Financial institutions continued to be adversely affected by the impact of
corporate tax legislation over the past decade. Elimination or reduction of tax-
advantaged treatment of state and municipal income and tax-free loans has
resulted in a steady increase in the effective tax rate for financial
institutions. Keystone recorded tax expense of $27,866,000 in 1995, an increase
from $20,481,000 recorded in 1994. The increase was influenced primarily by
higher levels of taxable income and by the aforementioned trends with respect to
the national tax policy. Likewise, the effective tax rate rose to 31.2% in 1995
versus 28.5% in 1994.
Keystone's effective tax rate is not a complete measure of the total tax burden
placed on financial institutions. The historic role of financial institutions as
an intermediary for tax incentives and indirect taxation through mandatory
maintenance of noninterest-bearing balances with the Federal Reserve Bank places
an added hardship on financial institutions. During 1995, Keystone maintained
average reserve balances of approximately $61,679,000.
BALANCE SHEET OVERVIEW
- - ----------------------
Keystone's total assets reached $5,074,785,000 at December 31, 1995, compared to
$4,706,000,000 at the end of 1994 and reflected a period-end growth rate of
7.8%. Average assets grew from $4,445,432,000 in 1994 to $4,763,336,000 in 1995,
an increase of 7.0%. Average loans grew to $3,266,514,000 and deposits rose to
$3,854,449,000, constituting growth of 11.8% and 5.6%, respectively.

Loans comprise over 72% of Keystone's earning assets and represent the primary
source of interest income. Loans can be disaggregated into the following basic
loan categories (in thousands):

</TABLE>
Keystone's trade areas are dominated by moderately-sized business and
traditional retail customer relationships. In order to deepen existing
relationships and explore new market opportunities, Keystone has sought to
better understand the credit needs of these customers. Simultaneously, Keystone
has developed other noninterest revenues including those related to mortgage and
indirect loan securitization activities, which have affected observed growth
trends.
Commercial loans consist of traditional forms of commercial credit including
business term loans, lines of credit, and certain tax-advantaged loans to
political subdivisions. While the volume of commercial loans actually declined
slightly from 1994 to 1995, growth of 9% was achieved in the commercial real
estate category. The growth in this category is reflective of Keystone's
strategic goal to meet the credit needs of local businesses, which often are
either mortgages or loans collateralized by real estate. Floor plan loans, which
consist almost entirely of floor plan credit lines for automobile dealers, grew
28%. Keystone's Dealer Finance Center, which is a centralized function
responsible for meeting the credit needs of automobile dealers and their
customers, continues to expand the number and depth of these important
relationships. This growth is driven largely by specialized expertise and
technology which enables Keystone to efficiently meet customer needs in this
highly competitive market segment.
Consumer mortgages, which experienced less dramatic growth than most of the
other categories, were influenced by the expansion of Keystone's mortgage
banking activities. In fact, the comparison of 1995 mortgage balances to those
in 1994 was primarily affected by the growth attributable to loans added in the
fourth quarter of 1994 as a result of the acquisition of American Savings Bank.
During 1995, the continuing decline in long-term interest rates had a
significant influence on the level of both refinancing and new loan origination
activities. The loans originated during 1995 included a substantially higher mix
of fixed-rate mortgages which were sold into the secondary market.
Consumer loans, which have been a cornerstone of Keystone's retail strategy,
grew $119,024,000 or 16%, the largest dollar increase of any lending category.
Additionally, approximately $66,000,000 of automobile loans were securitized and
sold at the end of the third quarter of 1995. This transaction had the impact of
reducing annual average balances by $16,500,000, and reduced aggregate average
growth from 18% to the reported 16%. Indirect securitization activity is
expected to continue to affect
13
<PAGE>
loan growth rates. However, this strategy provides an ongoing servicing revenue
stream and, at the same time, allows for both effective leveraging of Keystone's
investment in the Dealer Finance Center technology and consistent access to the
automobile lending market.
The most dramatic growth in any single category occurred in lease financings,
which is composed primarily of automobile leasing. During 1995, the balance of
lease financing receivables nearly doubled to $173,694,000. Customer preferences
and competitive product offerings have allowed Keystone to grow a substantial
portion of this business segment which is an important component of Keystone's
overall Dealer Finance Center activities.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES AND ASSET QUALITY
Keystone's allowance for credit losses at December 31, 1995, was $44,377,000 and
reflected a relationship of the allowance to loans of 1.32%. Comparable measures
at the end of 1994 were $42,440,000 and 1.33%. The following table sets forth
summarized activity within the allowance for credit losses for the past five

Risk Elements
- - -------------
The overall level of risk elements is an important component in the evaluation
of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. Risk elements are composed
of both nonperforming assets (NPA) and loans past due 90 days or more. The
relative level of these risk elements provides an indication of the
level of credit risk within the loan portfolio. Nonperforming assets include
nonaccrual loans, restructurings, and other real estate (ORE). Nonaccrual loans
are loans for which interest income is not accrued due to concerns about the
collection of interest and/or principal. Restructured loans may involve
renegotiated interest rates, repayment terms, or both, because of a
deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower. ORE activity in 1995
reflected no unusual or significant fluctuations in balances. The following
table provides a comparative summary of nonperforming assets and total risk
elements at the end of each of the last five years (in thousands):

Substantially all of the loans in the nonaccrual category at December 31, 1995,
were contractually past due as to principal or interest.
The relationships of nonperforming assets and total risk elements to total loans
and to the allowance for credit losses provide important measures of asset
quality. The allowance for credit losses must be adequate to absorb credit risk
in these categories and in the remainder of the loan portfolio. The following
table summarizes the total risk element components expressed as a percentage of
year-end loans and relevant coverage provided by the allowance for credit
losses.

</TABLE>
*Excludes ORE.
Keystone experienced improvement in nearly all of its year-end ratios, coverage
ratios, and absolute levels of problem credits, while maintaining the ratio of
the allowance to year-end loans virtually constant at 1.32%. Improvement was
noted in the absolute level of nonaccrual loans which dropped from $24,403,000
at December 31, 1994, to $16,740,000 at the end of 1995. Total risk elements,
however, rose slightly from $38,161,000 to $41,222,000 over the same period
which was attributed largely to the growth in 90-days past due loans. Coverage
ratios, which reflect the ability of the allowance for loan losses to absorb
problem credits, were all at peak levels by comparison to the most recent five-
year histories. For example, the coverage of 1995 net charge-offs provided by
the allowance was 6.5 times, reflecting significant improvement from the 1994
level of 4.6 times.
17
<PAGE>
Credit risk associated with nonperforming assets also can be measured in terms
of exposure to specific categories of loans. Keystone was able to achieve a
reduction in the majority of the categories of nonperforming assets. The
following table provides the components of nonperforming assets, detailed by
loan categories, at the end of each of the past five years, (in thousands):

===========================================================
</TABLE>
The level of past due credits in the 90-days past due category, as well as the
level of less severe categories from 30 to 89 days, rose substantially since the
end of 1994. Economic lethargy and stress on the consumers' credit condition
caused by high debt levels, appear to be the principal contributing factors. The
situation is being monitored closely and, at this time, significant worsening,
including charge-off experience greater than that experienced historically, is
not expected. Steps taken to address the situation include the centralization of
collections and charge card portfolio disposition.
Collections centralization should allow for improved monitoring of the portfolio
and enhanced collection techniques through state-of-the-art technology. The
approximate $20 million credit card portfolio, a contributing factor to consumer
delinquencies and charge-offs, was disposed of subsequent to year-end.
Management has identified approximately $2,520,000 of loans outstanding where
concern exists as to the potential for future classification into one of the
risk element categories. Substantially all of these loans were current at the
end of 1995.
18
<PAGE>
Effective January 1, 1995, Keystone adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) Statement No. 114 - "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan",
as amended by Statement No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan-Income Recognition and Disclosures". Under this new standard, the credit
losses on individual problem loans are based on discounted cash flows using the
loan's effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient, the loans
observable market price or the fair value of the collateral for collateral-
dependent loans. Prior to the adoption of the new standard, cash flows were not
discounted in estimating credit loss. Adoption of the new standard did not have
a material impact on Keystone's financial condition or results of operation.
Overall Assessment
- - ------------------
Keystone has assessed all of the above factors in the establishment of the
allowance for credit losses. The determination as to the adequacy of the
allowance reflects management's judgment, and is based upon appraisals,
estimates, local market conditions, and other such information that requires
subjective analysis. These factors, which are prone to change, are monitored by
management to evaluate their potential impact on management's assessment of the
adequacy of the allowance. Based on its evaluation of loan quality, management
believes that the allowance for credit losses is adequate to absorb the credit
risk within the loan portfolio.
INVESTMENTS
- - -----------
Keystone has established corporate investment policies that address various
aspects of portfolio management including, but not limited to, quality
standards, liquidity and maturity limits, investment concentrations, and
regulatory guidelines. Compliance with these policies is reported regularly to
the Board of Directors. Keystone's objectives with respect to investment
management include maintenance of appropriate asset liquidity, facilitation of
asset/liability management strategies, and maximization of return over the long
term.
At December 31, 1995, Keystone's investments represented 24% of total assets.
The aggregate carrying value of the investment portfolio was $1,223,172,000
including $837,910,000 of investments "available for sale" and $385,262,000
categorized as "held to maturity". The following is a summary of the carrying
values of investments at December 31, 1995 and 1994 (in thousands):

The Securities and Exchange Commission, the Federal Reserve Board, and others
have expressed general concern over the use of derivative financial instruments.
In response to financial statement user concerns about derivative exposure, the
FASB issued Statement No. 119 - "Disclosures About Derivative Financial
Instruments and the Fair Value of Financial Instruments" in 1994. This
accounting standard defined two distinct types of off-balance sheet derivative
activities: "trading" activities and "end-user" activities. Keystone does not
engage in derivatives trading activities and has made only limited use, as an
end-user, of interest rate swaps. These swaps, together with other strategies,
have been used to manage Keystone's overall exposure to the effect of changes in
interest rates. Further disclosures concerning these swaps are included in the
footnotes to the financial statements.
A broader definition of derivatives would include any financial instrument which
derives its value or contractual cash flows from the price of some other
security or index. Keystone's investment policy governs the nature and extent of
on-balance sheet financial derivative holdings, which currently include both
collateralized mortgage obligations and structured notes. This policy limits
Keystone's exposure to derivatives risk by defining restrictions on the amount
of credit, prepayment, extension, and interest-rate risk associated with
derivative financial instruments. Keystone's aggregate investment in this form
of financial derivative holdings is substantially composed of U.S. Government
Agency holdings, as more fully described in the supplemental financial
information which is included on page 66 of this Annual Report to Shareholders.
The weighted average life of Keystone's fixed rate investments was 2.75 years at
December 31, 1995. Ratings for state, municipal, and corporate issues are
provided by major rating agencies, principally Moody's and Standard and Poor's.
At the end of 1995, the portion of all state and municipal holdings rated "AAA"
was 90.7% and the portion of all corporate rated "A" or better was 92.1%.
The relationship of market value to the amortized cost of investments at
December 31, 1995, was 100.8% compared to 96.6% at the end of 1994. Investments
"held to maturity", which are carried at amortized cost, contained unrealized
gains of $9,032,000 and unrealized losses of $459,000. At December 31, 1995,
unrealized gains and losses included in the carrying value of the investments
"available for sale" category of $3,543,000 and $1,848,000, respectively, were
reflected, on a net of tax basis, as an adjustment to shareholders' equity.
Keystone holds no concentration of corporate or municipal investment securities
of any single issuer which exceeds 10% of shareholders' equity.

</TABLE>
Keystone recorded 6% growth in deposit balances from 1994 to 1995. This growth,
however, was augmented by deposits acquired in merger and acquisition activity
which accounted for nearly half of the overall growth rate. The most significant
dynamics within the deposit base occurred in the flow of NOW, savings, and money
market accounts to time deposits. This disintermediation was particularly
evident in customer preference for the "variable rate" certificate of deposit
product. As a direct consequence of the downward pressure on interest rates,
consumers began seeking higher returns on their investment funds. Additionally,
the rates offered on longer term deposits provided little incentive for
customers to extend deposit maturities. These circumstances, combined with
consumer desire to participate with the potential benefits of an upward rate
environment, led to the development of the "variable rate" certificate. This
product, which combines flexibility, convenience, and interest rate sensitivity,
is an illustration of Keystone's on-going emphasis on the design of products and
services which meet the needs of its customers. The enormous success of this
product, which grew $179,755,000, or 123% since the end of 1994, was a primary
factor in the deposit growth which occurred during the year.
The overall increase in average interest rates and the disintermediation from
NOW, savings, and money market accounts into variable rate and certain longer-
term categories of certificates, fostered an increase in the cost of funds from
3.55% in 1994 to 4.42% in 1995. The pricing of deposits will continue to be
subjected to competitive pressures if interest rates rise from current levels
and the current pace of loan growth is sustained. The competitive pressures on
funding costs are likely to be present even in a declining interest rate
environment as the overall level of interest rates at the end of 1995 precluded
significant reduction in most core deposit rates. In order to continue to
consistently meet the needs of its customer base in a variety of interest rate
environments, Keystone will continue to develop innovative products such as the
variable rate certificate of deposit and indexed money market account. These
accounts, whose returns are closely tied to external indices, have provided
customers with the flexibility and convenience necessary in a changing interest
rate environment.
21
<PAGE>
Certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more are considered less stable relative
to other core deposit funding sources because they are short-term in nature and
generally subject to competitive bid. Keystone's dependence on this source of
funds, when measured as a percent of total deposits, rose slightly from 4.9% in
1994 to 5.7% in 1995. This increase was principally driven by the need to secure
funding that would support loan demand. Keystone's use of other funding
management tools, including loan securitization strategies is expected to reduce
Keystone's limited reliance on this funding source.

OTHER BORROWED FUNDS
Keystone has selectively accessed sources of funding other than traditional core
deposits. The following table provides a summary of the change in other borrowed

Without developing a dependence on these funds, Keystone will selectively access
these funding sources to provide short-term liquidity, to meet funding
requirements, or to support specific business mix changes. Each of the Keystone
banks is a member of a Federal Home Loan Bank, and as such, can access a number
of credit products which are utilized to provide various forms of funding.
Keystone has primarily accessed fixed-rate borrowings with maturities of between
one and three years.
SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
The management of capital, which provides the foundation for future asset and
profitability growth, is a critical component of Keystone's overall financial
management strategy. Shareholders' equity at December 31, 1995 totalled
$480,694,000 versus $407,774,000 at the end of 1994, an increase of $72,920,000,
or nearly 18%. This growth was influenced by the impact of shares issued in
mergers and acquisitions in late 1995, by unrealized gains on "available-for-
sale" securities, and by the effect of ongoing issuance of shares in connection
with various benefit and dividend reinvestment plans.
Keystone's capital management policies have been developed to ensure the
maintenance of appropriate levels of capital under a variety of economic
circumstances. The principal source of new capital for Keystone is earnings
retention. Earnings retention is a function of the return on beginning equity
and the dividend paid to shareholders. Keystone's capital management policies
set forth specific guidelines to ensure a favorable, consistent, and sustainable
pattern of dividend payments, which for 1995, were 7.9% of the beginning of year
book value. In recent years, earnings retention rates, offset by dividend payout
patterns, have exceeded the level of asset growth and resulted in increased
levels of capital.
Under guidelines set forth in its capital management policies, Keystone has
sought to execute strategies and tactics which would moderate capital growth and
increase the level of earning assets, which in turn would improve leverage. The
acquisition of treasury stock and the annual dividend to shareholders were both
executed pursuant to Keystone's capital management strategies.
At December 31, 1995, Keystone's equity-to-asset ratio stood at 9.47% versus
8.66% at the end of 1994. Despite the execution of capital management tactics, a
number of external factors moderated Keystone's ability to control the relative
rate of capital growth. For example, capital growth rates were increased by the
unrealized appreciation of securities held in the available-for-sale investment
category as required under FASB Statement No. 115, "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity
23
<PAGE>
Securities". The general decline in interest rates from the end of 1994 gave
rise to increases in investment values at December 31, 1995. Similarly, the
volume of share repurchase activity was limited by restrictions associated with
the pooling-of-interests accounting method.
Bank regulators have set forth requirements for risk-based capital, which
resulted in the establishment of international capital standards for banks.
These requirements set forth minimum "leverage", "Tier 1" and "Total" capital
ratios and provide a measure of capital adequacy that is more risk responsive
than previous regulatory guidelines. Risk-based capital standards have continued
to evolve under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act
(FDICIA), which established a range of capital adequacy from "well-capitalized"
to "significantly undercapitalized". The complexity surrounding the development
of standards for interest rate risk, however, has delayed resolution of a final,
comprehensive set of capital requirements.
The following table provides Keystone's risk-based capital position at the end
of 1995 and a comparison to the various regulatory capital requirements.
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
"Well Minimum
Keystone Capitalized" Requirements
==================================================================
<S> <C> <C> <C>
Leverage ratio 9.28% 5.00% 4.00%
"Tier 1" capital ratio 13.65% 6.00% 4.00%
Total capital ratio 14.83% 10.00% 8.00%
</TABLE>
Failure to meet any one of the minimum capital ratios would result in an
institution being classified as "undercapitalized" or "significantly
undercapitalized". Such classifications could disrupt dividends, capital
distributions, or affiliate management fees. In addition, other restrictions,
prohibitions, and related supervisory actions would be likely depending upon the
overall level of capital. Keystone anticipates no problems in meeting the
current or future capital standards. Intangible assets, consisting of both core
deposit intangible and goodwill, totaled $15,593,000 at December 31, 1995, or
51% of "Tier 1" capital.
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
The process by which financial institutions manage earning assets and funding
sources under different interest rate environments is called asset/liability
management. The primary goal of asset/liability management is to increase net
interest income within an acceptable range of overall risk tolerance. Two
important objectives are optimization of net interest margin and maintenance of
adequate liquidity, both of which have an impact on net interest income
performance. Net interest margin is increased by widening interest spread while
controlling interest rate sensitivity. The adequacy of liquidity is determined
by the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of both depositors and
customers requesting bank credit. Asset/liability management occurs at each of
the subsidiary banks, with overall coordination and support provided by the
Keystone Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO).
Interest Rate Risk
- - ------------------
Interest rate risk can be quantified by measuring the change in net interest
margin relative to changes in market interest rates. Risk is identified by
reviewing repricing characteristics of interest-earning assets and interest-
bearing liabilities. Keystone's asset/liability management policy sets forth
guidelines that limit the level of interest rate risk within specified tolerance
ranges. Keystone and its subsidiary banks utilize a variety of techniques to
measure and monitor interest rate risk, including the use of simulation
analysis. In order to quantify the impact of changes in interest rates on net
interest
24
<PAGE>
income, Keystone conducts quarterly interest rate shock simulations. These
simulations are used to determine whether corrective action may be warranted or
required in order to adjust the overall interest rate risk profile. Keystone's
asset/liability management policy limits interest rate risk exposure to 5% of
net interest income for the succeeding twelve-month period. Management has
determined that Keystone maintained a level of interest rate risk consistent
with its asset/liability management policy limits at December 31, 1995.
Management augments rate shock simulations with GAP or interest rate sensitivity
analysis. GAP is defined as the volume difference between interest rate-
sensitive assets and liabilities. GAP is used by management to assist in
evaluating the results of rate shock simulations, to identify areas that may
warrant corrective action, and to identify interest rate risk exposure for
periods beyond one year. By utilizing GAP to manage longer term interest rate
risk, Keystone attempts to minimize fluctuations in net interest margin and
thereby achieve consistent net interest income growth during periods of changing
interest rates.
The following table provides an analysis of Keystone's interest rate sensitivity
as measured under GAP at December 31, 1995 compared to 1994:

</TABLE>
Recent trends suggest that certain segments of the customer base and certain
core products are more sensitive to changing interest rates than reflected in
historical gap presentations. During 1995, Keystone enhanced its GAP analysis by
modifying the treatment of certain categories of loans and deposits to more
accurately reflect potential repricing opportunities.
While both rate shock simulations and Keystone's GAP analysis provide a
measurement of interest rate risk, such presentations cannot accurately reflect
all actual repricing opportunities which will occur within loan and deposit
categories. The information provided by these analyses, however, provides some
indication of the potential for interest rate adjustment, but does not
necessarily mean that the rate adjustment will occur, or that it will occur in
accordance with the assumptions. Despite these inherent limitations, Keystone
believes that the tools used to manage its level of interest rate risk provide
an appropriate reflection of interest rate risk exposure.
Liquidity
- - ---------
Liquidity is defined as Keystone's ability to meet maturing obligations and
customers' demand for funds on a continuous basis. Liquidity is sustained by
stable core deposits, a diversified mix of liabilities, strong credit
perception, and the maintenance of sufficient assets convertible to cash without
material
25
<PAGE>
loss or disruption of normal operations. Keystone monitors liquidity through
regular computation of prescribed liquidity ratios at each of the affiliate
banks. Banks which fail to meet the prescribed minimum standards for these
ratios must set forth tactics to promptly comply with policy guidelines and
provide mandatory progress reports to Keystone's ALCO. Keystone actively manages
liquidity within a defined range and has developed reasonable liquidity
contingency plans, including ensuring availability of alternate funding sources
to maintain adequate liquidity under a variety of business conditions.
Keystone's primary sources of liquidity are funds derived through earnings and
deposit balances. Liquidity is also provided by scheduled maturities of loans
and investment securities, as well as the early payoff of customer loan
balances. Liquidity may also be influenced by the volume and timing of indirect
securitization activity for both mortgages and indirect automobile loans.
Consideration is given to the maturity of assets and expected future
growth/funding needs when developing investment strategies. These liquidity
sources may also be augmented by other forms of liability liquidity, such as
FHLB borrowings. These various sources of funding have been used to support
increases in overall earning asset balances over the year. Keystone's operating,
investing, and financing activities are conducted within the overall constraints
of Keystone's liquidity management policy.
Parent company liquidity represents another important aspect of liquidity
management. Within Keystone, the parent company relies on the banking
subsidiaries to provide funding for dividends to shareholders and unallocated
corporate expenses. The amount of dividends from bank subsidiaries to the parent
company is constrained by both state and federal regulations, which have not
historically limited Keystone's practices. Based upon the inherent strength and
profitability of the Keystone banks, holding company liquidity is deemed
adequate.
REGULATORY MATTERS
Keystone and its banking affiliates are subject to periodic examinations by one
or more of the various regulatory agencies. During 1995, examinations were
conducted at the holding company and at Keystone's various banking and
nonbanking subsidiaries. These examinations included, but were not limited to,
procedures designed to review lending practices, credit quality, liquidity,
compliance, and capital adequacy of Keystone and its subsidiaries. No comments
were received from the various regulatory bodies which would have a material
effect on Keystone's liquidity, capital resources, or operations.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (FDICIA), established
a new framework for the relationship between insured depository institutions and
the various regulatory bodies. FDICIA regulations, which addressed capital
adequacy, brokered deposits, annual audits, expanded regulatory requirements,
audit committee composition, and truth in savings provisions have been finalized
and enacted throughout Keystone. Implementation of other aspects of FDICIA,
including the introduction of interest rate risk into the premium assessment
methodology and capital requirements have not yet been finalized due to
complexities in regulatory implementation. Keystone has closely monitored its
compliance with all banking regulations and will continue to monitor and comply
with future regulations as set forth by the various bank regulatory bodies.
INFLATION
Keystone's ability to cope with the impact of inflation is best determined by an
analysis of its ability to respond to changing interest rates and manage
noninterest income and expense. As discussed in the asset/liability management
section of this review, Keystone manages the mix of interest rate-sensitive
assets and liabilities in order to limit the impact of changing interest rates
on net interest income. Inflation also has a direct impact on noninterest income
and expense, such as service fees, salary
26
<PAGE>
expense and benefits, and other overhead expenses. Inflationary pressure over
the last several years has been relatively modest, although concern exists over
the sustained strength of the economy and the potential impact on inflationary
pressure. Management will continue to monitor the impact of these pressures on
the pricing of its products and services and on the control of overhead
expenses.
27
<PAGE>
1994 vs. 1993
- - -------------
Keystone's 1994 net income was $51,359,000, and was comparable with the net
income of $51,349,000 in 1993. Earnings per share were $2.20 in both 1994 and
1993. Results in both periods were affected by acquisition-related expenses,
which reduced earnings per share by $0.14 and $0.19, respectively. Earnings
results in 1994 were further reduced by approximately $0.07 per share due to the
recognition of restructuring expenses related to the consolidation of certain
back-office loan and deposit activities. Return on average assets (ROA) and
return on average equity (ROE) were 1.16% and 12.71%, respectively, compared
with 1.19% and 12.98% in 1993. Excluding the aforementioned charges, ROA and ROE
were 1.27% and 13.87% in 1994, versus 1.28% and 13.92% in 1993.
Core earnings, excluding the impact of both merger-related and restructuring
expenses, continued to exhibit improvement in areas of key strategic focus. Net
interest income continued to grow as a consequence of steady increases in
lending activities and the maintenance of stable funding costs. Noninterest
revenues were constant with 1993 levels, and overhead costs, excluding the
merger and restructuring expenses, reflected almost no growth during 1994.
On July 29, 1994, Keystone completed the merger of the Frankford Corporation and
its principal subsidiary, the Frankford Bank (Frankford), in a transaction
accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method of accounting. Keystone's
results also reflected the January 1994 acquisitions of WM Bancorp and Elmwood
Bancorp, Inc., which were also accounted for under the pooling of interests
method. On November 1, 1994, Keystone completed the acquisition of American
Savings Bank (American) into its Pennsylvania National Bank affiliate. This
transaction was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, as
such, did not result in restatement of periods prior to the merger. This
purchase accounted for approximately 20% of the total growth in Keystone's
average assets during 1994 and 30% of the total growth in Keystone's average
deposits.
Interest income rose to $319,506,000 in 1994, compared with $315,193,000 in
1993, an increase of $4,313,000. While interest rate trends in 1994 reversed the
pattern of declining rates, the increases were not sufficient to push average
yields over those achieved in 1993. The average earning asset yield of 7.59% in
1994 was slightly under the 7.69% recorded in 1993. The increase in interest
income was driven by the growth in the volume of earning assets, and was
sufficient to overcome the impact of the slightly lower asset yields. Earning
assets grew to $4,214,088,000 in 1994 compared with $4,100,016,000 in 1993, an
increase of $114,072,000, or 2.8%. Growth in earning assets occurred primarily
in the loan portfolio. The most significant growth in loans occurred in the
consumer categories, including indirect lending, personal lines of credit, and
credit cards.
The impact of the interest rate environment and responsive deposit pricing
strategies had a profound effect on customer savings patterns and preferences.
As with the yield on earning assets, the cost of funding sources was slightly
lower in 1994 than in 1993. Although interest rates increased during 1994, the
increase was insufficient to overcome the overall higher average rates
experienced in the prior year. The average cost of funds was 3.55% in 1994,
slightly less than the 3.62% recorded in 1993. Interest expense was almost
constant at $124,784,000 in 1994 versus $125,245,000 in 1993. Customers began to
seek higher yields associated with longer-term deposits, which had been priced
less attractively during periods of declining interest rates. Product
strategies, which included the promotion of a variable-rate certificate of
deposit product, were designed to increase customer choices in an uncertain
interest rate environment. Total deposits reflected a slight increase during the
year and, combined with managed growth in short-term borrowings and Federal Home
Loan Bank (FHLB) advances, provided the funding necessary to meet loan demand.
28
<PAGE>
Net interest income, or the difference between interest income and interest
expense, grew modestly from $189,948,000 in 1993, to $194,722,000 in 1995, an
increase of $4,774,000 or 2.5%. Net interest margin, which includes the effect
of net interest spread and the investment of noninterest bearing funds, was
4.63% and included net interest spread of 4.04% and the impact of noninterest
bearing funds of .59%. Each of these measures was at or near 1993 levels.
The 1994 provision for credit losses grew to $9,484,000 compared with $7,940,000
in 1993. Much of this increase was attributable to a rise in the level of
charge-offs, which grew to $9,321,000 during the year and reflected an increase
from $6,699,000 in 1993.
Noninterest income before security transactions was $43,795,000 or slightly
under the $44,150,000 recorded in 1993. Keystone has emphasized the evolution of
existing and new fee-based products and services designed to meet the diverse
financial needs of its customer base. The impact of this strategy was
particularly evident in the expansion of investment management services, the
formation of mortgage banking and brokerage units, the introduction of an
annuity program, and other similar initiatives. Despite these efforts,
performance between 1994 and 1993 was relatively stable. Trust revenues were
$11,808,000 in 1994 vs. $11,690,000 in 1993 as the sale of the corporate trust
business in mid-year 1994 reduced corporate trust fees for the remainder of the
year. Keystone recorded a gain of $1.2 million in the "other income category"
related to the sale of the corporate trust business. The most dramatic change in
noninterest revenues occurred in mortgage banking fees which declined from
$6,143,000 in 1993 to $3,868,000 in 1994, and was attributed to the effect of
rising interest rates on the demand for refinancing and origination services.
This performances was substantially below 1993 activity, when the impact of a
rapidly declining interest rate environment spurred substantial refinancing
activity. Service charges on deposits grew 6% from $11,869,000 in 1993, to
$12,606,000 in 1994. During 1993, bank subsidiaries within Keystone underwent
extensive review to analyze whether service fees were appropriately priced and
resulted in an adjustment of fee structures and an increase in 1994 revenue.
Keystone also recorded increases in fees from the introduction of new products
and services, including the introduction of a proprietary credit card and the
"Keycheck" card.
Noninterest expenses rose 2.5% from $148,003,000 to $151,723,000, an increase of
$3,720,000. Salaries, benefits, and other expense components in both 1994 and
1993 were affected by merger-related expenses which totalled $4.5 million and
$4.1 million in 1994 and 1993, respectively. Additionally, 1994 expenses were
influenced by a $2.5 million restructuring charge related to the consolidation
of the loan and deposit operations. The following table summarizes the impact of
special charges reflected in both 1994 and 1993 (in thousands):

Salary expenses in 1994 grew 6%, or $3,683,000, and included approximately
$3,700,000 of contractual obligations incurred in connection with the Frankford
merger and the consolidation of back-office operations. Expenses in 1993 had
reflected a charge of approximately $600,000 for certain contractual obligations
arising from mergers. The recognition of the cost of contractual obligations in
both 1994 and 1993 was a consequence of the exercise of "change-of-control"
provisions of preexisting employment contracts with merged banks. Excluding
these charges, salary expenses grew only $633,000, or 1%, as staff reductions
offset almost fully the impact of a 3% merit increase. Benefit expenses, which
primarily relate to the costs of providing employee health care, declined
$2,010,000. While 1994 and 1993 benefit costs were affected by accruals incident
to mergers, core benefit expenses declined $1,645,000, or 12%, and were affected
by the implementation of the "point of service" program and by favorable claims
experience.
Occupancy and equipment expenses rose $1,633,000, or 7.5% as the most
significant portion of the increase occurred in equipment expense, which rose
$1,188,000. Management has continued to make technological and infrastructure
enhancements necessary to support a large and more customer-oriented financial
services company. FDIC deposit insurance expense remained constant during 1994
at $8,039,000 versus $8,178,000 in 1993. Changes to the assessment methodology
mandated by FDICIA did not materialize in 1994.
Keystone experienced minimal growth in the other expense category during 1994.
Substantial merger-related expenditures were included in both 1993 and 1994 as
other expenses totalled $46,058,000 in 1994 compared with $45,505,000 in 1993.
In addition to the merger expenses, fees related to the termination of third-
party servicing arrangements, which permitted cancellation of certain external
data services, were recorded in both years. Direct merger-related costs included
in other expenses aggregated $2.5 million in 1994 and $3.2 million in 1993. In
1994, Keystone also recognized a $1.0 million reduction in expenses resulting
from the reversal of a portion of a contingency reserve originally established
in 1988. Expenses in 1993 had included an adjustment to goodwill of $1.3
million.
30
<PAGE>
Keystone recorded tax expenses of $20,481,000 in 1994 versus $21,037,000 in
1993, as the effective tax rate declined slightly from 29.1% in 1993 to 28.5% in
1994. The 1993 effective tax rate had been inflated by the recognition, for
Federal income tax purposes, of approximately $1 million of bad debt reserve
recapture of the acquired savings bank. Excluding the impact of this bad debt
recapture, Keystone's effective tax rate was slightly higher in 1994 as income
from tax-free sources continued to reflect a steady decline of balances due to
investment maturities.

Report of Independent Auditors
Shareholders and Board of Directors
Keystone Financial, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of condition of
Keystone Financial, Inc. 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 the management of
Keystone Financial, Inc. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the 1993 financial
statements of three acquired companies, which statements reflect net income
constituting 23% of consolidated net income for the year ended December 31,
1993. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been
furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to data included for the
acquired companies is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.
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, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the consolidated financial position of Keystone Financial, Inc. 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Summarized Accounting Policies
The accounting policies discussed below are followed consistently by Keystone
and its subsidiaries. These policies are in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and conform to common practices in the banking industry.
Nature of Operations: Keystone provides a wide range of commercial and consumer
services to a diverse client base through its banking subsidiaries. The client
base includes individual, business, public, and institutional customers
primarily located in Pennsylvania, Maryland, and West Virginia. Lending services
include secured and unsecured commercial loans, residential and commercial
mortgages, installment loans, revolving consumer loans and lease financing.
Deposit services include a variety of checking, savings, time, money market, and
individual retirement accounts. Money management services are available to
customers through a variety of techniques, all of which are designed to improve
cash flow, control disbursements, and increase return on investments. In
addition, Keystone has entered into agreements with certain investment and
insurance specialists to provide an expanding array of specialized investment
products and services to its customer base.
A full spectrum of trust services is offered by specialists, including
administration of trusts and estates, investment management services,
administration of retirement and employee benefit plans, and other fiduciary
responsibilities.
Keystone's nonbanking subsidiaries perform specialized services including
mortgage banking, small-ticket equipment leasing, discount brokerage services,
investment advisor services, and reinsurance. None of the nonbanking
subsidiaries represent a material component of Keystone's operations.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from the estimates.
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of: Keystone Financial, Inc., the parent company; its wholly-owned
banking subsidiaries consisting of Mid-State Bank and Trust Company; Northern
Central Bank; Pennsylvania National Bank and Trust Company; American Trust Bank,
N.A.; Frankford Bank, N.A;. and its subsidiary, Keystone Financial Leasing
Corporation; and the parent company's nonbanking subsidiaries consisting of Key
Trust Co., Martindale Andres & Co.; Keystone Brokerage, Inc.; Keystone Life
Insurance Company; Keystone Investment Services, Inc.; Keystone Financial
Mortgage Corporation; and two community development corporations. All
significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
Trading Account Assets: Securities classified as trading account assets are held
for resale in anticipation of short-term market movements and are carried at
fair value with market adjustments recorded against income. Keystone has made
limited use of trading account portfolios.
Investments "Held-to-Maturity" and "Available-for-Sale": In accordance with FASB
Statement No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities", Keystone classifies its securities as either "held-to-maturity" or
"available-for-sale".
The classification of debt securities is determined at the time of purchase.
Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity based upon management's
positive ability and intent to hold such
37
<PAGE>
securities to maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are stated at cost, adjusted
for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts (amortized cost).
Debt securities not classified as trading or held-to-maturity and marketable
equity securities not classified as trading are classified as available-for-
sale. Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value, with unrealized
gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a component of shareholders' equity.
The cost of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity or available-for-sale
is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity,
or in the case of a mortgage-backed security, over the estimated life of the
security. Such amortization/accretion, as well as interest and dividends, is
included in interest income from investments. Realized gains and losses and
declines in value judged to be other than temporary are included in net
securities gains (losses). The cost of securities sold is based on the specific
identification method, and sales are reported as of the trade date.
Assets Held for Resale: Assets held for resale are valued at the lower of cost
or market, determined on an aggregate basis.
Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights: Effective January 1, 1995, Keystone
adopted FASB Statement No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights". The
new statement requires that mortgage banking enterprises recognize a separate
asset for mortgage servicing rights, regardless of whether the rights are
acquired through purchase or origination. If mortgage loans are sold or
securitized with servicing retained, the total cost of the mortgage loans is to
be allocated to the loans and the servicing rights based on their relative fair
values. Keystone performs a periodic review for impairment in the market value
of recorded mortgage servicing rights.
Adoption of this new statement did not have a material impact on Keystone's
financial condition or results of operations.
Interest and Fees on Loans: Interest income on loans is accrued based upon the
principal amount outstanding. Loan origination fees and certain direct loan
origination costs have been deferred and the net amount amortized as an
adjustment of the related loan yield over the estimated contractual life of the
related loans.
Keystone places loans and leases on nonaccrual when collection of principal is
in doubt, or when interest is 90 days past due, unless the loan is well-secured
and in the process of collection. Classification of a loan as nonaccrual is also
considered when the financial condition of the borrower is in a state of
significant deterioration. When loans are placed on nonaccrual, including those
identified as impaired under FASB Statement No. 114, loan interest receivable is
reversed. Interest payments received on these loans and leases are applied as a
reduction of the principal balance when concern exists as to the ultimate
collection of principal; otherwise such payments are recognized as interest
income. Loans and leases are removed from nonaccrual when they have performed in
accordance with contract terms for a reasonable period of time and when concern
no longer exists as to their collectability.
Impaired Loans: Keystone adopted FASB Statement No. 114 - "Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," as amended by Statement No. 118,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and
Disclosures," effective January 1, 1995. As a result of applying the new rules,
certain impaired loans are reported at the present value of expected future cash
flows using the loan's effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient, at
the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the
loan is collateral dependent. The adoption of these standards did
38
<PAGE>
not have a material impact on Keystone's financial position or results of
operations.
Direct Lease Financing: Financing of equipment, principally consisting of
automobiles and business equipment, is provided to customers under lease
arrangements accounted for as direct financing leases. These leases are reported
in the consolidated statements of condition under the loan caption as a net
amount, consisting of the aggregate of lease payments receivable and estimated
residual values, less unearned income. Income is recognized in a manner which
results in an approximate level yield over the lease term.
Allowance for Credit Losses: The allowance for credit losses is maintained at a
level believed adequate by management to absorb potential loan and lease losses.
Management's determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the risk
characteristics of the loans and leases, credit loss experience, economic
conditions, appraisals, valuation estimates, and such other relevant factors
which, in management's judgment, deserve recognition.
Premises and Equipment: Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost, less
accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed generally on
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.
Other Real Estate: Other real estate is comprised of property acquired through a
foreclosure proceeding, an acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or an
in-substance foreclosure. Balances are carried at the lower of the related loan
balance or estimated fair value. Any losses realized upon disposition of the
property, and holding costs prior thereto, are charged against income.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: In March 1995, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued Statement No. 121 - "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of." This standard
requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The impairment is measured
based on the present value of expected future cash flows from the use of the
asset and its eventual disposition. If the expected future cash flows are less
than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized.
Keystone intends to adopt this standard on January 1, 1996. The adoption is not
expected to have a material impact on Keystone's financial position or results
of operations.
Trust Assets and Income: Assets held in a fiduciary capacity by the subsidiary
banks are not assets of the banks and are therefore not included in the
consolidated financial statements.
Pensions: The provision for pension expense was actuarially determined using the
projected unit credit actuarial cost method. The funding policy is to contribute
an amount sufficient to meet the requirements of ERISA, subject to Internal
Revenue Code contribution limitations.
Stock Options: Keystone will adopt FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation," in January, 1996. As permitted under this new
standard, Keystone intends to provide pro forma disclosure of the impact to net
income and earnings per share that would occur if compensation expense were
recognized based on the estimated fair value of the options on the date of the
grant. The calculation of the fair value of options granted will require
complex valuation techniques. Adoption of this new standard is not expected to
have a significant impact on Keystone's results of operations.
Income Taxes: The provision for income taxes is based on the results of
operations and the impact of tax rate changes on the carrying amount of deferred
tax assets and liabilities. In computing the tax
39
<PAGE>
liability, the results of operation are adjusted principally for the tax
effect of tax-exempt income.
Net Income Per Share: Net income per share is calculated by dividing net
income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
during each period.
Financial Derivatives: Interest rate swap contracts are utilized to hedge
specific credit and/or funding activities, and the differential of interest
paid or received is reflected in interest income or expense. The fair
value of these swap contracts is not recognized in the financial
statements.
Cash Flow Information: Keystone considers cash and due from banks and
federal funds sold as cash and cash equivalents. Interest paid on deposits
and other borrowings aggregated $163,120,000, $120,652,000, and
$127,610,000, in 1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively. Cash payments for
income taxes approximated $17,050,000, $24,854,000, and $21,442,000 for
1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively.

At December 31, 1995, there were no significant commitments to lend
additional funds on these loans.
At December 31, 1995, the recorded investment in loans that are considered to be
impaired under FASB Statement No. 114 was $8,321,000, of which $4,704,000 were
on a nonaccrual basis. Included in this amount is $8,271,000 of impaired loans
for which the related allowance for credit losses is $2,034,000 and $50,000 of
impaired loans that have already been written down. The average recorded
investment in impaired loans during the year ended December 31, 1995, was
approximately $9,169,000. During 1995, Keystone recognized interest income of
$545,000 on these loans, which included $185,000 of interest income recognized
on a cash basis.
Certain directors and executive officers of Keystone and its subsidiaries, and
their associates, were indebted to the bank subsidiaries during 1995. Such loans
were made in the ordinary course of business and on customary terms. Loan
activity during 1995 with these related parties was as follows (in thousands):

Financial Derivatives
- - ---------------------
Keystone engages in activities associated with the use of off-balance sheet
derivative financial instruments (derivatives) to manage its exposure to changes
in interest rates. Activities involving the use of derivatives include limited
interest rate swap activity, forward commitments for mortgage banking inventory
management, and loan commitments and standby letters of credit made in the
ordinary course of its banking business.
In periods prior to 1995, Keystone executed, and currently has outstanding,
interest rate swap contracts with original notional amounts of $32,000,000, at
December 31, 1995. Interest rate swaps acquired by Keystone included both index
amortization swaps and "bullet" swaps. Index amortization swaps are swaps whose
notional value and maturity can be reduced at specified intervals based upon the
movement of the contractual interest rate index. "Bullet" swaps have a singular,
predefined maturity date.
The majority of Keystone's swap contracts were executed during the first half of
1993, for the purpose of hedging interest rate risk associated with its excess
floating-rate loan portfolio. Under the terms of these contracts, which had
original notional values totaling $25,000,000, Keystone "receives fixed" and
pays a "floating" rate, based upon three-month LIBOR. These contracts, which
resulted in a net receiving position in the earlier stages of the contract, are
now in a net paying position. The remaining
44
<PAGE>
contract, which was executed in 1987, has a notional amount of $7,000,000, and
is a "receive floating"/"pay fixed" swap, and is also currently in a net paying
position. This contract hedges a fixed-rate loan, funded by short-term
certificates of deposit.
Under the terms of its interest rate swap contracts, Keystone has agreed to an
exchange of cash flows with counterparties, each of whom meet credit standards
set forth in the corporate credit policy. Keystone currently has no credit
exposure on the notional amount of the contracts, as exposure is limited to the
net difference on the pay and receive amounts on each transaction.
Counterparties are subject to on-going credit analysis for the purpose of
measuring future exposure to counterparty payment risk. At December 31, 1995,
the credit condition of Keystone's counterparties met Keystone's credit policy
standards.
The following is a summary of Keystone's interest rate swap contracts, including
the reduction of notional amounts pursuant to amortization of the index
amortization swaps (in thousands):

</TABLE>
The swaps will mature in 1996 and 1997. The valuation represents estimated costs
to terminate the swap contracts as of December 31, 1995. Since Keystone utilizes
these derivative instruments to hedge balance sheet amounts, unrealized
gains/(losses) are not recognized in the financial statements.
Keystone has entered into various forward mortgage commitments related to
management of its mortgage banking inventory. Under the terms of these
commitments, Keystone agrees to deliver a specified volume of mortgage loans
with a specified portfolio yield, and receives a pre-established price
commitment pursuant to timely delivery of the mortgage loans. The purpose of
this arrangement is to manage the effect of interest rate changes on these loans
between the date of the original loan commitment and the date of delivery for
sale into the secondary market. At December 31, 1995, Keystone had entered into
commitments to deliver approximately $14,400,000 of mortgage loans for sale into
the secondary market. The delivery dates for these commitments are short-term in
nature and will expire at various dates in the first half of 1996.
Loan commitments and standby letters of credit have credit risk substantially
the same as involved in extending loans to customers. At December 31, 1995,

significantly exceed historic levels.
Federal Home Loan Bank Borrowings
- - ---------------------------------
The subsidiary banks of Keystone are members of a Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB)
and, as such, can take advantage of the FHLB program for overnight and term
advances at published daily rates, which are advantageous to members as compared
to issuing notes directly in the market. Under the terms of a blanket collateral
agreement, advances from the FHLB are collateralized by first mortgage loans and
securities. Advances available under this agreement are limited by available and
qualifying collateral and the amount of FHLB stock held by the borrower. At
December 31, 1995, Keystone member banks could borrow an additional $883,453,000
based on qualifying collateral.
Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank are summarized as follows (in

The KSOP note payable reflects the amortized balance of a $3,500,000 borrowing,
the proceeds of which were used to purchase 123,894 shares of previously
authorized but unissued Keystone common stock on July 1, 1992. The original note
is payable in 84 equal monthly installments ending on July 31, 1999. The loan
bears interest at the prime rate plus 0.25% and requires monthly amortization of
principal and interest. The loan is subject to various debt covenants, including
reporting requirements, and other customary conditions. See the note on
"Employee Benefit Plans" for additional information.
The note payable agreement is between Keystone Financial Leasing Corporation
(Keystone Leasing), a subsidiary of Frankford Bank, N.A., and an unrelated
financial institution. The note payable agreement has been executed to provide
funding for the leasing operations. Under this term line of credit arrangement,
Keystone Leasing can borrow up to $10,000,000 of term loans, which are
guaranteed by Frankford Bank. Each loan is evidenced by a note, repayable over a
36-month period, and subject to a minimum principal amount of $50,000. The
interest rate on each note is determined by mutual agreement of the two parties
thirty days prior to each draw. Rates at December 31, 1995, ranged from 6.07% to
8.32%. The termination date for the agreement is August 6, but will
automatically renew for a one-year period at each anniversary date, subject to
termination options.
Principal payments on the bank note payable are due each June 1, in the amount
of $166,667 per year, with a final payment scheduled for June 1, 2000. Under the
terms of the agreement, the note is redeemable by the subsidiary bank without
penalty. The interest rate on the note is subject to adjustment under certain
conditions; however, such interest rate will not exceed 73% of the prime rate.
This debt is secured by a building.
Shareholders' Equity
Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock (Preferred Stock) (par value
$1.00, with voting powers and dividend and liquidation rights per share equal to
125 times that of the current common stock) has been established in connection
with the adoption of a Shareholders' Rights Plan (Rights Plan). Under the Rights
Plan, 200,000 shares of preferred stock are reserved for issuance on the
exercise of rights attached to the outstanding common stock. The rights are
exercisable only if a person or group
47
<PAGE>
acquires or announces a tender or exchange offer to acquire 20% or more of the
common stock. In the event a person or group acquires a 20% position, each right
not owned by the person or group will entitle its holder to purchase at the
exercise price of $56.00, a number of shares of common stock, 8/1000th of a
share of preferred stock, or other securities or assets of Keystone or common
shares of the acquiring company having a market value equal to twice the
exercise price. At any time after a person or group acquires 20% or more (but
less than 50%) of the outstanding common stock, the Board of Directors may
exchange part or all of the rights (other than the rights held by the person or
group) for shares of common or 8/1000th of a share of preferred stock on a one-
for-one basis. The Board of Directors is entitled to redeem the rights for one
cent per right at any time before a 20% position has been acquired. The rights
will expire on February 8, 2000.
Common Stock Plans
Keystone provides eligible employees and directors with various stock option and
stock purchase plans, and also provides a dividend reinvestment plan to its
shareholders.
Keystone has an employee "Stock Incentive Plan" and a "Nonemployee Directors'
Stock Option Plan". Under the terms of these plans, Keystone has reserved for
issuance a total of 1,500,000 shares of common stock for qualifying employees
and nonemployee directors, of which approximately 875,000 are available for
future grants. The plans provide for issuance of nonqualified options and, under
the employee plan, incentive stock options. Options are granted at an exercise
price not less than the fair market value of Keystone common stock on the date
of grant and expire approximately ten years after such date. Keystone also has
outstanding options pursuant to a predecessor plan and plans of acquired banks.
The following table provides data related to the "Stock Incentive Plan," the
"Nonemployee Directors' Stock Option Plan", and other predecessor or acquired
plans:

On March 30, 1995, the Board of Directors approved the Management Stock
Ownership Program (the "Program"). The Program is intended, among other things,
to promote alignment of management and shareholder interests and to encourage
management to focus on value creation. To accomplish these purposes, the Program
establishes stock ownership goals for executive and senior officers of the
Corporation to be achieved over a five-year period. In order to assist the
officers in attaining their stock ownership goals, a related plan for
nonrecourse, noninterest-bearing loans, in amounts not to exceed 50% of the
officer's stock ownership goal, to be used to purchase shares of Keystone common
stock at fair market value. The loans are secured by collateral having an
initial value of 120% of the loan amount and consisting of the shares of
Keystone stock purchased with the loan plus additional shares of stock or other
acceptable collateral owned by the executive. The aggregate number of shares
which may be issued and sold pursuant to the Plan is limited to 500,000 shares
of Common Stock, subject to proportionate adjustment in the event of stock
splits and similar events. During 1995, 47,757 shares were issued under the
Plan. At December 31, 1995, loans used to finance purchases totalling $1,383,700
were due to Keystone from executives participating in the Program.
Eligible employees are provided an opportunity to purchase Keystone common stock
at a discount from market price under the "Employee Stock Purchase Plan." The
"Employee Stock Purchase Plan" is a noncompensatory plan that provides a stock
ownership incentive for employees through payroll deduction. The Plan provides
for the purchase of stock at a price which is the lesser of 85% of the fair
market value of the common stock as of the first or last day of the annual
purchase period. The purchase period commences on July 1 and ends on June 30.
Through modifications made to the plan in 1995, Keystone reserved 500,000 shares
of common stock, all of which remain available for future purchases. The amount
of common shares issued under this program in 1995, 1994, and 1993 were as
follows:

Keystone has a dividend reinvestment plan for shareholders under which
additional shares of Keystone common stock may be purchased at market value with
reinvested dividends and voluntary cash payments. Keystone has reserved 350,000
shares of common stock for this Plan, and approximately 61,000 shares remain
unissued. The following number of shares of Keystone common stock were purchased
pursuant to this plan: 88,508 in 1995, 83,575 in 1994, and 117,633 in 1993.
Employee Benefit Plans
Keystone provides a noncontributory defined benefit plan covering substantially
all full-time employees. Plan benefits are based on years of service and
qualifying compensation during the final years of employment. A summary of the

The unrecognized net assets at transition and the unrecognized prior service
costs are being amortized over the expected service lives of eligible employees,
which approximate 15 years. Trusteed pension plan assets consist primarily of
equity and fixed income securities and short-term investments.
A 401(k) deferred savings plan covers eligible employees of Keystone. The plan
provides for a matching employer contribution equal to 60% of the employee
contribution, limited to 5% of employee compensation. Matching contributions are
paid entirely in Keystone stock.
In July 1992, Keystone established a leveraged KSOP and borrowed $3,500,000 for
the purpose of acquiring 123,894 shares of Keystone stock. The shares purchased
by the KSOP are used to meet matching contribution requirements of the 401(k)
plan. Dividends received on shares held by the KSOP are used to service the
principal and interest payments on the borrowing. Debt service is also provided
by matching cash contributions required under the original 401(k) plan. Benefit
expense is recognized based on a percentage of total debt service for the
current year to total debt service over the life of the borrowing.
Group-based annual incentive plans include the Management Incentive Compensation
Program (MICP) and Profit Enhancement Requires Quality (PERQ). Under these
programs, employees earn awards based on the profitability of their operating
unit and/or Keystone.
Expenses for the 401(k) plan, MICP, and PERQ were $5,213,000 in 1995, $3,699,000
in 1994, and $3,664,000 in 1993.

Under Federal Reserve regulations, depository institutions must maintain
reserves in the form of cash or amounts on deposit with Federal Reserve Banks.
For the year ended December 31, 1995, Keystone's bank subsidiaries maintained
average reserve balances of approximately $61,679,000 in compliance therewith.
Dividends that may be paid to Keystone by the subsidiary banks are limited by
state and federal regulations. The related amount available for dividends
aggregated $193,874,000 at December 31, 1995. Federal Reserve regulations also
limit each subsidiary bank as to the amount it may loan its affiliates,
including Keystone. At December 31, 1995, the maximum amount available for loan
approximated 10% of consolidated net assets.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
FASB Statement No. 107 requires disclosure of fair value information about
financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which
it is practicable to estimate that value. In cases where quoted market prices
are not available, fair value is based on estimates using present value or other
valuation techniques. These techniques are significantly affected by the
assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash
flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated
by comparison with independent markets, and, in many cases, could not be
realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. Statement No. 107 excludes
certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its
disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented
do not represent the underlying value of Keystone Financial, Inc.

<PAGE>
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair market value
disclosures for financial instruments:
Cash and short-term instruments: The carrying amounts reported in the balance
sheet for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets' fair values.
Investment securities (including mortgage-backed securities): Fair values for
investment securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If
quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market
prices of comparable instruments.
Loans receivable: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and don't have
significant changes in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.
The fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow
analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar
terms to borrowers of comparable credit quality. The carrying amount of accrued
interest approximates its fair value.
Deposit liabilities: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g.,
interest and noninterest checking, savings, and certain types of money market
accounts) are reported at a value equal to the amount payable on demand at the
reporting date. The carrying amounts for variable-rate, fixed-term money market
accounts and certificates of deposit approximate their fair market value at the
reporting date. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated
using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently
being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly
maturities.
Short-term borrowings: The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased,
borrowings under repurchase agreements, and other short-term borrowings
approximate their fair values.
FHLB and long-term borrowings: The fair values of Keystone's FHLB and long-term
borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on
Keystone's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowings.
Unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit: Fair values for Keystone's
unfunded lending commitments and letters of credit are based on fees currently
charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining
terms of the agreements and the counterparties' credit standings.
Interest rate swaps: Fair values for Keystone's interest rate swaps are based on
dealer quotes. These fair values represent the estimated amounts that Keystone
would receive or pay to terminate the contracts, taking into account current
interest rates.

Mergers and Acquisitions
- - ------------------------
On October 10, 1995, Keystone consummated its merger with Shawnee Financial
Services Corporation (Shawnee), a Pennsylvania bank holding company, in a $15.9
million stock-for-stock exchange. Under the terms of the agreement, Keystone
issued approximately 501,000 shares of common stock for the 80,200 shares of
Shawnee common stock outstanding at the consummation date. Shawnee's bank
subsidiary was merged into an existing Keystone affiliate bank.
On December 29, 1995, Keystone completed its merger with National American
Bancorp, Inc. (NAB), a Pennsylvania bank holding company, in a $34.5 million
stock-for-stock exchange. Under the terms of the agreement, 1,158,000 shares of
Keystone common stock were issued for the 579,000 shares of NAB common stock
outstanding at the consummation date. NAB's bank subsidiary was merged into an
existing Keystone affiliate bank.
Both the Shawnee and NAB mergers were accounted for under the pooling of
interests method of accounting, however, due to the immaterial impact to
Keystone's financial position and results of operations, prior periods were not
restated. As such, the consolidated results of Keystone include Shawnee's and
NAB's results of operations from the consummation dates of October 10, 1995 and
December 29, 1995, respectively.
On November 30, 1995, Keystone completed its acquisition of Martindale Andres &
Company (Martindale), a Philadelphia-based asset management firm. Martindale
will operate as a registered investment advisor. The acquisition was accounted
for under the purchase method of accounting. As such, the consolidated results
of Keystone include the results of Martindale's operations beginning December 1,
1995. Pro forma results of operations of Keystone as though Martindale had been
acquired as of January 1 of the respective periods, would not have been
materially different from the consolidated results presented herein. The
purchase price, consisting of both cash and shares of Keystone common stock, was
not significant to Keystone's financial condition.
During January, 1994, Keystone completed the acquisitions of WM Bancorp (WM), a
Maryland-based bank holding company, and Elmwood Bancorp, Inc. (EBI), a
Pennsylvania savings and loan holding company. In July, 1994, Keystone completed
the acquisition of the Frankford Corporation (Frankford), a Pennsylvania-based
bank holding company. These acquisitions were accounted for under the
pooling-of-interests method of accounting.
The results of operations of WM, EBI, and Frankford were combined with Keystone,
for the year ended December 31, 1993, as follows (in thousands):

On November 1, 1994, Keystone completed the purchase of American Savings Bank
(American), a state-chartered savings bank with assets of approximately
$135,000,000, which was merged into an affiliate bank. Former shareholders of
American received cash, in the approximate amount of $5,774,000, and 317,000
shares of Keystone common stock, with total consideration valued at
approximately $14,522,000. The transaction was accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting and resulted in the recognition of intangible assets
totalling approximately $8,539,000. The intangible assets consist primarily of
core deposit intangibles which will be amortized on an accelerated basis over a
period of ten years.

Investment Portfolio Analysis
- - -----------------------------
Keystone's investment policy specifically addresses the use of derivative
financial instruments and provides for specific restrictions on the type and
extent of Keystone's derivative exposure.
A narrow definition of financial derivatives includes off-balance sheet
instruments such as futures, forwards, swaps, and options which are designed to
manage various types of business risks. Keystone has made limited use of the
off-balance sheet derivatives known as "interest rate swaps" as a means to
manage the income exposure associated with changes in interest rates.
A broader definition of derivatives would include any financial instrument which
derives its value, or contractually required cash flows, from the price of some
other security or index. Keystone's investment in this form of financial
derivatives is limited to various forms of collateralized mortgage obligations
(CMO's) and structured notes. The following is a brief description of both "on"
and "off"-balance sheet derivative financial instruments utilized by Keystone.
Interest Rate Swaps
- - -------------------
Interest rate swaps are "off"-balance sheet instruments which provide for the
exchange of interest payments on a specified principal amount (notional amount)
for a specified period of time. Investment policy requires that Keystone may
execute a swap contract only as a hedge of an interest rate position and not for
the purpose of speculation or trading. That policy further requires that swap
contracts must be approved in advance by the affiliate banks' president and
parent company executives, and that swap counterparties must be reviewed for
credit worthiness on at least an annual basis. Keystone's policy also sets
forth specific limitations on exposure to a single counterparty and sets an
aggregate limit on the notional value of interest rate swaps at 50% of capital.
At December 31, 1995 Keystone's swap activity aggregated $22,685,000 in
amortized notional value.
CMO's
- - -----
Purchases of CMO's are restricted principally to U.S. Government issues that
have passed various regulatory standards associated with mortgage extension or
prepayment risk. All Keystone CMO holdings can be dissaggregated into groupings
which more accurately define the extent of mortgage extension or prepayment
risk, and include PAC's (planned amortization class), VADM's (very accurately
defined maturity), TACs (targeted amortization class) and others. All CMO's are
subject to at least
62
<PAGE>
annual examination to ensure compliance with regulatory standards. CMO's which
fail to meet these standards are disclosed to the Board of Directors and are
subjected to special review and monitoring procedures.
Other more volatile forms of CMO's include interest-only, principal-only, and
inverse floating bonds, which are subject to even more stringent limits set
forth in Keystone's investment policy. At December 31, 1995, Keystone had none
of these volatile forms of CMO's in its investment portfolio. An even
higher-risk form of CMO's, known as CMO residuals, is specifically designated
as prohibited investments under Keystone's investment policy.
Structured Notes
- - ----------------
A structured note is a debt security whose cash flow characteristics, including
coupon rate or redemption date may be dependent on one or more indices or future
cash flow adjustment. Keystone's activity in structured notes has been limited
to U.S. Government Agency "step- up" notes purchased in years prior to 1995,
which have specified call or redemption features, or are subject to
pre-specified coupon adjustments. Keystone's investment in structured notes is
also limited by investment policy guidelines and aggregated $26,495,000 at the
end of 1995.

1. A PAC(planned amortization class) has a principal payment schedule that is
guaranteed within a predetermined range of mortgage prepayment rates, i.e. has
built-in call protection, lower prepayment risk and lower average life
variability.
2. A VADM (very accurately defined maturity) has a stated final payment date
which provides protection from mortgage payment extension risk.
3. A TAC (targeted amortization class) has a payment schedule that offers some
call protection if mortgage prepayments increase, but little to no extension
protection if prepayments slow down.

Credit Risk and Loan Portfolio Analysis
Keystone's objective as a lending institution is to profitably meet the credit
needs of the communities in which it operates. Credit risk and lending
practices are governed by written policies and procedures which have been
designed to provide for an acceptable level of risk and compensating return.
These policies have also established requirements for lending authority,
underwriting practices, collateral standards, lending concentrations, geographic
limits, and other important elements of the credit process. Significant
policies are reviewed, at a minimum, on an annual basis.
Keystone maintains a corporate loan review function which is independent of the
underwriting and administrative process. Loan review performs continuous
reviews to determine adherence to credit policies, assess the effectiveness of
the credit process, and objectively evaluate the quality of the loan portfolio.
In connection with these reviews, adversely classified credits within the
portfolio are identified and included on a classified loan report, which is
reviewed by management on a monthly basis.

Loan Composition
Keystone maintains a diverse loan portfolio. The composition of Keystone's loan
portfolio is illustrated in the following comparison of loan balances at the end

<PAGE>
Concentration Risk
The diversity of Keystone's loan portfolio is an end result of Keystone's effort
to manage credit risk. Keystone's credit policy has established specific limits
on the level of credit to a borrower or single group of borrowers, which serve
to reduce concentration risk. This diversity is evidenced by the absence of
industry and customer concentrations.
o The largest group of customers in a single industry to whom Keystone provides
credit extensions is automobile dealers. At December 31, 1995 credit
extensions totalling $193,528,000 were outstanding, and consisted of floor
plan and related commercial loans and mortgages.
o Keystone has no dependence on a single customer. The top ten credit
relationships account for only 5.2% of the total loans outstanding at the end
of 1995.
Geographic Risk
In addition to industry or customer concentrations, credit risk is also affected
by the geographic characteristics of the loan portfolio. The credit risk
profile of Keystone's portfolio is enhanced by the stable economic climate and
the industry diversification of Keystone's-defined market.
o The overwhelming majority of Keystone's lending activities, approximately 97%,
are conducted within its own defined market.
o Keystone has no foreign loan exposure.
Categories of Exposure
Keystone's loan portfolio can be evaluated in terms of its exposure to certain
types of loans which are presumed to exhibit a higher degree of credit risk.
Examples include credit extensions for highly leveraged transactions,
speculative real estate ventures, or certain commercial real estate loans.
These types of loans may subject a lender to a higher level of loss from
economic downturns, dramatic changes in interest rates, or depressed real estate
markets. The following comments provide insight into this aspect of Keystone's
loan profile.
o Keystone has not been active in the organization, syndication, or purchase of
highly leveraged transactions.
o Keystone's commercial real estate lending practice requires an evaluation of
the borrower's ability to repay debt from cash flow provided through
operations. The underlying value of real estate is viewed as a secondary
source of repayment. In addition, Keystone's lending practices generally
require guarantees, endorsements, and other forms of recourse which provide
additional security for such credits.

Reconciliation of Previously Reported Quarterly Information
On July 29 1994, The Frankford Corporation (Frankford) was merged with Keystone
resulting in the termination of the separate legal existence of Frankford. The
merger was accounted for under the pooling of interests method of accounting
and, accordingly, the consolidated financial statements were restated. Columns
one and two of the following presentation represent amounts previously reported
by the individual entities. Column three, which represents total combined
Keystone as reported in the Annual Report to Shareholders, is the sum of columns
one and two with the exception of earnings per share, which are calculated based
on total average shares of the combined entity after giving effect to the
issuance of shares resulting from the merger.
