PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
OVERVIEW
CNB Bancshares, Inc. (the Corporation) is a regional, bank holding company
headquartered in Evansville, Indiana. Incorporated on May 26, 1983, under the
laws of the State of Indiana, the Corporation began operating in 1984 as a one-
bank holding company for The Citizens National Bank of Evansville, which was
chartered in 1874. Since that time, the Corporation has acquired additional
financial subsidiaries and on December 31, 1998, the Corporation combined the
charters of its eight subsidiary banks into one Michigan state bank charter
under the name of Citizens Bank of MidAmerica (Citizens). Citizens operated 144
offices in Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois and Michigan and had total assets and
shareholders' equity of $7,134,268,000 and $571,140,000, respectively at
December 31, 1998. The Corporation also owns a consumer finance company and a
leasing company. As of December 31, 1998, the Corporation had consolidated
total assets of $7,141,797,000 and total shareholders' equity of $527,046,000.
Citizens offers a broad range of commercial and retail banking and other
financial products and services to its customers. Deposit products include
certificates of deposit, individual retirement accounts and other time deposits,
checking and other demand deposit accounts, including interest bearing checking
accounts, savings and money market accounts and cash management services. Loans
include commercial and industrial, real estate mortgage and servicing, consumer,
agricultural and leasing services. Other products and services include deposit
and investment brokerage, trust and asset management, credit-related insurance,
automatic teller machines and safe deposit boxes. Citizens is the Corporation's
principal subsidiary.
The Corporation also has four non-banking subsidiaries. Citizens Life
Assurance Company underwrites credit life and disability insurance sold through
the Corporation's banking subsidiary. Citizens Insurance of Evansville provides
risk management, employee benefits and personal insurance. Small Parker &
Blossom is a third party administrator of employee benefit plans. Wedgewood
Partners is a full service broker/dealer and asset management firm.
The Corporation operates with a super community bank philosophy--
decentralizing day-to-day customer services such as pricing and lending
decisions, while centralizing data processing systems, product development and
back office support functions. The Corporation's operations in each market are
managed by a president under the guidance of a regional board of directors. By
keeping the decision-making process close to the customer, the Corporation
believes it has a competitive advantage over super regional companies, while
providing the necessary scale to manage expenses. Management believes that the
Corporation's size gives it a considerable advantage over community banks
through a much more diverse product offering and greater access to resources,
especially technology. The Corporation has operations in six of the ten largest
Indiana counties. Based upon the most recently available FDIC deposit data, 78%
of its deposits come from markets where the Corporation ranks first, second or
third in deposit market share.

<PAGE>
The Corporation continues to explore new products and services to meet the
needs and demands of its growing customer base and to remain competitive with
other financial institutions operating in its market areas.
PENDING AND RECENTLY COMPLETED ACQUISITIONS
The Corporation has grown significantly through 33 acquisitions of banks and
non-banks since 1986. The future growth of the Corporation will be dependent in
part upon the ability of the Corporation to acquire businesses at favorable
prices, terms and conditions and to properly manage and integrate their
operations. The Corporation's ability to expand successfully through
acquisitions depends upon many factors, including the successful identification
and acquisition of financial institutions and other related businesses and
management's ability to effectively integrate the acquired businesses. Future
acquisitions by the Corporation may involve the issuance of its common stock
which would have the effect of diluting the ownership interests of the existing
shareholders of the Corporation.
Acquisitions entail risks that business judgments will prove inaccurate with
respect to anticipated market growth, projected revenue enhancements and
expected operating expense savings. Acquisitions also entail the risks of the
diversion of management's attention and the conversion of the operations and
assimilation of personnel of the acquired companies, each of which could
adversely affect the Corporation's results of operations. In addition, the
success of any acquisition will depend in part upon the Corporation's ability to
effectively integrate the acquired company into the Corporation's operations and
implement its business style and philosophy. There can be no assurance that
future acquisition opportunities, if any, can be consummated on favorable terms,
that the Corporation will be successful in acquiring any businesses or that any
such acquisitions will enhance the earnings of the Corporation.
On August 3, 1998, the Corporation issued 1,143,389 shares and assumed the
terms of stock options that allow the purchase of 30,846 shares of its common
stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of National Bancorp
(National) of Tell City, Indiana. The acquisition was accounted for under the
pooling of interests method of accounting without restatement of prior periods,
as the amounts involved were not material to the Corporation's financial
results.
On April 17, 1998, the Corporation issued 13,771,974 shares and assumed the
terms of stock options to allow the purchase of 123,901 shares of its common
stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of Pinnacle Financial
Services, Inc. (Pinnacle), headquartered in St. Joseph, Michigan. The
acquisition was accounted for under the pooling of interests method of
accounting and, accordingly, all financial data of the Corporation for prior
periods has been restated to include the financial position and operating
results of Pinnacle.
On January 1, 1998, the Corporation issued 115,290 shares of its common stock
for the acquisition of Wedgewood Partners, a full service broker/dealer and
asset management firm based in St. Louis, Missouri. Goodwill of $2,345,000
related to this acquisition is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 15
years. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting; and, accordingly, the consolidated financial statements include the
assets and liabilities and results of operations from the January 1, 1998
transaction date forward.

COMPETITION
The business of the Corporation and its subsidiaries is highly competitive.
There are numerous banks and bank holding companies located in southern
Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan and Tennessee, which offer substantial
competition in the acquisition and operation of banks, savings associations and
non-bank financial institutions. The banking and financial subsidiaries and the
Corporation's non-banking subsidiaries encounter substantial competition in all
of their banking and related activities and expect such competition to intensify
as the financial industry expands due to more non-bank competitors offering
financial services. In addition, recent changes in laws relating to interstate
banking have permitted some local institutions to become part of larger regional
and national organizations.
The Corporation competes with other commercial banks, savings associations
and credit unions for loans and deposits and with money market funds for
deposits. Consumer and commercial finance companies, mortgage banks, securities
brokerage companies, investment banking firms and insurance companies also
compete for various types of loans and financial services. Some of these
entities and institutions are not subject to the same regulatory restrictions as
financial institution holding companies and their subsidiary banks and savings
associations and, therefore enjoy certain competitive advantages. The principal
methods of competition in banking activities are price, service and convenience.
REGULATIONS AND SUPERVISION
The United States banking industry is highly regulated, with federal and
state agencies having supervisory authority regarding the chartering,
supervision and examination of banks, savings banks and their bank holding
companies. There are numerous laws and regulations which limit how a bank
holding company and its subsidiaries conduct their businesses, including minimum
capital levels, limitations on the payment of dividends and regulation of
acquisitions and mergers.
As a bank holding company, the Corporation is subject to regulation under the
Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the BHC Act), which is
administered by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal
Reserve Board). The Corporation is required to file reports with the Federal
Reserve Board and various other federal and state agencies and to provide such
additional information as may be required.
A bank holding company must obtain Federal Reserve Board approval before
acquiring, directly or indirectly, ownership or control of any voting shares of
any bank or bank holding company if, after such acquisition, it would own or
control more than 5% of such shares (unless it already owns or controls a
majority of such shares). Federal Reserve Board approval must also be obtained
before any bank holding company acquires all or substantially all of the assets
of another bank or bank holding company or merges or consolidates with another
bank holding company.
The BHC Act also prohibits a bank holding company, with certain limited
exceptions, from acquiring or retaining direct or indirect ownership or control
of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company which is not a bank or bank
holding company, or from engaging in any activities other than those of banking,
managing or controlling banks, or providing services for its subsidiaries. The
principal exceptions to these prohibitions involve certain activities which the
Federal Reserve Board has
4
<PAGE>
determined to be so closely related to the business of banking or managing or
controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto.
The Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996 (EGRPRA)
was signed into law on September 30, 1996. EGRPRA streamlined the non-banking
activities application process for well-capitalized and well-managed bank
holding companies. Under EGRPRA, qualified bank holding companies may commence
a regulatorily approved non-banking activity without prior notice to the Federal
Reserve Board; written notice is required within 10 days after commencing the
activity. Under EGRPRA, the prior notice period is reduced to 12 days in the
event of any non-banking acquisition or share purchase, assuming the size of the
acquisition does not exceed 10% of risk-weighted assets of the acquiring bank
holding company and the consideration does not exceed 15% of Tier 1 capital.
The Federal Reserve Board has adopted comprehensive amendments to its
regulations under the BHC Act that implement the foregoing provisions of the
EGRPRA, including provisions allowing the 12-day prior notice for acquisitions
that exceed the 10% of risk-weighted assets limit, under certain circumstances,
and that also streamline the application/notice process for acquisitions of
banks and bank holding companies and eliminate regulatory provisions that the
Federal Reserve Board considered unnecessary.
In September 1994, the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching
Efficiency Act of 1994 (Interstate Act) was signed into law, authorizing, among
other things, interstate acquisitions by bank holding companies, interstate
mergers of banks and "agency banking" with affiliates in different states. The
Interstate Act amended the BHC Act to allow an adequately capitalized and
managed bank holding company to acquire banks located in any state, beginning
September 29, 1995, subject to state deposit caps and a 10% nationwide deposit
cap. Adequately capitalized banks were permitted to merge across state lines
without regard to whether the merger is prohibited by the laws of any state
(except for states that "opted-out" of the interstate branching authorization,
specifically Texas and Montana) beginning June 1, 1997. The Interstate Act's
"agency banking" provisions, effective September 29, 1995, permit affiliated
banks to act as agent for each other in the conduct of most core banking
activities. Affiliated banks may receive deposits, renew time deposits, close
loans, service loans and receive payments on loans and other obligations on
behalf of each other, without being treated as branches.
Subsidiary banks of a bank holding company are prohibited from engaging in
certain tie-in arrangements in connection with the extension of credit or the
lease or sale of any property or the furnishing of services. Bank holding
companies and their non-bank subsidiaries that engage in electronic benefit
transfer services are also subject to certain anti-tying restrictions.
Subsidiary banks of a bank holding company are also subject to certain
restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act on any extensions of credit to
the bank holding company or any of its subsidiaries, or investments in stock or
other securities thereof, and on the taking of such stock or other securities as
collateral for loans.
The Federal Reserve Board has prescribed capital adequacy guidelines for use
in its examination and regulation of bank holding companies. If the capital of
a bank holding company falls below the minimum levels established by these
guidelines, it may be denied approval to acquire or establish additional banks
or non-bank businesses. The guidelines established by the Federal Reserve Board
set a minimum leverage ratio of 3.0% for the most highly rated bank holding
companies that do not anticipate significant growth. All other institutions are
required to maintain a ratio of 4.0% to 5.0% depending on their particular
circumstances and risk profile. This ratio is defined as shareholders' equity
less non-qualifying intangible assets plus perpetual preferred stock, as a
percentage of the sum of quarter-to-date total average assets less non-
qualifying intangible assets. The Federal Reserve Board has also adopted
5
<PAGE>
risk-based capital guidelines which assign various risk weightings to assets and
off-balance sheet items and set minimum capital requirements. Under the current
rules, banks are required to have core capital (Tier 1) of at least 4.0% of
risk-weighted assets and total capital of 8.0% of risk-weighted assets. Tier 1
capital consists primarily of shareholders' equity, less intangible assets plus
perpetual preferred stock; and total capital consists of Tier 1 capital, certain
long-term debt and convertible debentures and a portion of the allowance for
loan losses. The $172,500,000 of trust preferred securities issued by the
Corporation in June 1998 qualify as Tier 1 capital. At December 31, 1998, the
Corporation's leverage, Tier 1 and total capital ratios were 9.3%, 14.8% and
16.0%, respectively, all well above regulatory minimums.
The Federal Reserve Board has issued a policy statement on the payment of
cash dividends by bank holding companies. In the statement, the Federal Reserve
Board expressed its view that a holding company experiencing earnings weaknesses
should not pay cash dividends exceeding its net income nor pay a dividend which
can only be funded in a way that weakens the holding company's financial health,
such as by borrowing. The Federal Reserve Board periodically examines bank
holding companies and possesses cease and desist powers over bank holding
companies and their non-bank subsidiaries if their actions represent unsafe or
unsound practices.
The Corporation's banking subsidiary is subject to supervision and regulation
by its chartering authority. The primary supervisory authorities of the
Corporation's banking subsidiary are the Federal Reserve Board and the Michigan
Financial Institutions Bureau. These regulators regularly examine such areas as
reserves, loans, investments, management practices and other aspects of bank
operations, and has the authority to prevent a bank from engaging in an unsafe
or an unsound practice in conducting its business. In addition, the
Corporation's banking subsidiary is a member of, and subject to regulation by,
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
Federal and state banking laws and regulations govern, among other things,
the scope of a bank's business, the investments it may make, the reserves
against deposits it must maintain, loans a bank makes and collateral it takes,
minimum capital levels, activities with respect to mergers and consolidations,
and the establishment of branches.
In December 1991, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act
of 1991 (FDICIA) was enacted. FDICIA contains various provisions relating to
the supervision, regulation, and operation of banks and bank holding companies.
Various regulations implementing FDICIA have been promulgated by bank
regulators. FDICIA, among other things, identifies the following capital
standards for depository institutions: well capitalized, adequately
capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically
undercapitalized. A depository institution is well capitalized if it
significantly exceeds the minimum level required by regulation for each relevant
capital measure, adequately capitalized if it meets each such measure,
undercapitalized if it fails to meet any such measure, significantly
undercapitalized if it is significantly below any such measure, and critically
undercapitalized if it fails to meet any critical capital level set forth in the
regulations. FDICIA requires a bank that is determined to be undercapitalized
to submit a capital restoration plan, and the bank's holding company, subject to
certain limitations, must guarantee that the bank will meet its capital plan.
FDICIA also prohibits banks from making any capital distribution or paying any
management fee if the bank would thereafter be undercapitalized. Under these
rules, institutions must have a leverage ratio of 5.0% or above, Tier 1 capital
to risk-based assets of 6.0% or above, and total capital to risk-based assets of
10.0% or above in order to qualify as well capitalized. The Corporation's
banking subsidiary was well
6
<PAGE>
capitalized for purposes of FDICIA and exceeded all other regulatory capital
requirements at year-end 1998.
FDICIA grants the FDIC authority to impose special assessments on insured
depository institutions to repay FDIC borrowings from the United States Treasury
or other sources and to establish semiannual assessment rates on Bank Insurance
Fund (BIF) and Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) member banks so as to
maintain the funds at the designated reserve ratios defined in FDICIA. FDICIA
also required the FDIC to implement a risk-based insurance assessment system
pursuant to which the premiums paid by a depository institution are based on the
probability that the BIF or SAIF will incur a loss in respect of such
institution. At December 31, 1998, the Corporation's banking subsidiary was in
the category of institutions that paid deposit assessments at the lowest rates.
Because of concerns relating to competitiveness and the safety and soundness
of the banking industry, Congress is considering a number of wide-ranging
proposals for altering the structure, regulation and competitive relationships
of the nation's financial institutions. Among such bills are new proposals to
merge the BIF and the SAIF insurance funds, to eliminate the federal thrift
charter, to alter the statutory separation of commercial and investment banking,
to allow a wider variety of financial services companies to affiliate with banks
and to further expand the powers of banks, bank holding companies and
competitors of banks. It cannot be predicted whether or in what form any of
these proposals will be adopted or the extent to which the business of the
Corporation may be affected thereby.
GOVERNMENT POLICIES
The policies of federal and state agencies including the Federal Reserve
Board, the FDIC and other regulatory authorities may have a significant effect
on the operating results of the Corporation and the banking industry. An
important function of the Federal Reserve Board is to regulate aggregate money
supply and credit conditions and interest rates in order to influence general
economic conditions. The Federal Reserve Board, primarily through open market
operations of U.S. Government securities, and by varying the discount rate for
member bank borrowings and changing reserve requirements against member bank
deposits, can exercise significant influence on the overall growth and
distribution of bank loans and deposits and interest rates charged on loans and
earned on investments or paid for time and savings deposits. The general
effect, if any, of such policies upon the future business and earnings of the
Corporation and its financial subsidiaries cannot be determined.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Managing interest rate risk is fundamental to the financial services
industry. The Corporation's policies are designed to manage the inherently
different maturity and repricing characteristics of its loan and deposit
portfolios to achieve a desired interest sensitivity position and to limit
exposure to interest rate risk. By using a combination of on- and off-balance
sheet financial instruments, the Corporation manages interest rate sensitivity
while seeking to optimize net interest income within the constraints of prudent
capital adequacy and liquidity needs. Principal maturities and repricing
profiles are monitored through static gap analysis and future operating results
are simulated through computer modeling.
The management of interest rate sensitivity includes monitoring the
maturities and repricing opportunities of interest earning assets and interest
bearing liabilities. The Corporation's interest rate sensitivity analysis as of
December 31, 1998 is summarized in the Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity
section of Management's Discussion and Analysis in the Corporation's Annual
Report to Shareholders on pages 34 and 35. A rate sensitivity position is
computed for various repricing intervals by calculating rate sensitivity gaps.
Interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities have been distributed
based on their repricing opportunities. The maturities of certain investments,
loans and deposits have been adjusted based on projected prepayment patterns or
historical relationships to changes in market interest rates. The repricing of
certain liabilities has been adjusted to reflect the expected benefit of
interest rate contracts in place at year-end. Although rate sensitivity gaps
constantly change as funds are acquired and invested, the Corporation's positive
gap of $23,089,000 at one year or less as of December 31, 1998, was
approximately .3% of total assets. This, in the opinion of management,
represented a relatively balanced position and was well within the current
Board-approved policy limits of plus or minus 10% of total assets.
The Corporation utilizes a simulation model to measure and evaluate the
impact of changing interest rates on net interest income. The simulation
techniques involve assumptions regarding changes in interest rate relationships,
asset and liability mixes, prepayment options inherent in financial instruments
and directional changes in prevailing interest rates. These assumptions are
inherently uncertain; and, consequently, the model cannot precisely measure net
interest income or predict the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on net
interest income. Actual results may differ from simulated results due to
timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in
market conditions or changes in customer preferences.
The Corporation's Asset/Liability Management Committee, which includes
Board members and senior management representatives, monitors and manages
interest rate risk within Board-approved policy limits. The Corporation's
current interest rate risk policy limits are determined by measuring the
anticipated change in net interest income over a twelve month horizon assuming a
200 basis point uniform and gradual increase or decrease in all interest rates.
Current policy limits this exposure to plus or minus 3% of net interest income
over a twelve month horizon.

<PAGE>
The table below illustrates the projected change in the Corporation's net
interest income during the next twelve months if all market rates were to
uniformly and gradually increase or decrease by as much as 200 basis points
compared to the results of a flat rate environment. These projections, based
upon the Corporation's balance sheet as of December 31, 1998, were prepared
using the modeling techniques and assumptions which were then used for
asset/liability management purposes.

Basis point change in interest rates from
current level (200) (100) 100 200
Change in net interest income (1.5)% (1.1)% .5% 0%
</TABLE>
The table indicates that if rates were to gradually increase or decrease by
200 basis points, net interest income would be expected to remain substantially
the same or decrease by 1.5%, respectively, compared to a flat rate environment.
These estimated changes in net interest income are well within the policy
guidelines established by the Board of Directors. This model is based solely on
gradual, uniform changes in market rates and does not reflect the levels of
interest rate risk that may arise from other factors such as changes in the
spreads between key market rates or the shape of the Treasury yield curve.
To assist in achieving the desired level of interest rate sensitivity, the
Corporation has entered into interest rate swaps as a hedge against changing
interest rates. The Corporation's interest rate swaps represent an exchange of
interest payments requiring the Corporation to pay a fixed rate of interest
ranging from 5.32% to 5.60% and receive a variable rate based on one-month or
three-month LIBOR. At December 31, 1998, the notional values of the interest
rate swaps totaled $440,000,000.

EXHIBIT 10(6)(A)
CHANGE OF CONTROL AGREEMENT
This AGREEMENT is entered into by and between CNB BANCSHARES, INC., an
Indiana corporation ("Company"), and ROGER FORYSTEK ("Executive").
BACKGROUND
----------
A. Executive is an officer and key management employee of Company.
B. Company's Board of Directors ("Board") has determined that it is in the
best interests of Company and its shareholders to assure Executive's continued
dedication and undivided time, attention, and loyalty, notwithstanding the
possibility, threat, or occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in Section
2 below).
C. In furtherance of that goal, the Board wishes to provide Executive with
certain benefits, if his employment should terminate as a result of a Change of
Control.
D. In reliance on this Agreement, Executive is willing to continue his
employment with Company on the terms agreed to by Executive and Company and its
subsidiaries from time to time.
In consideration of the premises, Company and Executive agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
---------
1. DURATION OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall be effective February 16,

after a demand for substantial performance is delivered to Executive on behalf
of the Board that specifically identifies the manner in which it alleges that
Executive has failed to perform his duties and Executive's failure to take
appropriate actions to correct such failure within thirty (30) days; or
(2) Executive's willful engaging in misconduct that has caused
demonstrable and material injury, monetary or otherwise, to Company or an

unless and until the Board has delivered to him a copy of a notice of
termination, and after reasonable notice to him and an opportunity for him,

specified in Appendix A; provided, however, if Executive's employment terminates
after a Change of Control (or, in the case of a transaction described in
Paragraph 2(d)(4) or 2(d)(5), the later effective date of such transaction), the
number of months in the Payment Period shall be reduced by one for each full
calendar month before the effective date of Executive's termination of
employment occurring after the most recent Change of Control Date (or, in the
case of a transaction described in Paragraph 2(d)(3) or (4), the later effective
date of such transaction) before such termination date.
(n) TERM. "Term" means the period beginning on the Effective Date and

Agreement, if one or more Changes of Control occur during the Term (as
determined pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Subsection or as
extended pursuant to this sentence to reflect a prior Change of Control), the
-5-
<PAGE>
Term shall not end before the end of the Payment Period with respect to the
latest Change of Control occurring during the Term.
(o) TERMINATION COMPENSATION. "Termination Compensation" has the
------------------------
meaning specified in Paragraph 3(a)(1).
3. TERMINATION OF EXECUTIVE'S EMPLOYMENT DURING CHANGE PERIOD.

Period for a reason other than Cause or Executive's death or Disability,
Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits:
(1) An amount equal to Executive's Termination Compensation multiplied
by the number of months in the Payment Period. Executive's Termination
Compensation shall be equal to the sum of (i) his highest rate of base monthly
salary (unreduced by any elective salary deferrals or redirections) during the
twelve (12) month period immediately preceding his termination of employment
plus (ii) one-twelfth of his average annual incentive compensation with respect
to the shortest of (A) the three calendar years immediately preceding the
Payment Period, provided Executive received Full Incentive Compensation for all
such years, (B) the calendar years immediately preceding the Payment Period with

by this Section shall be paid promptly to Executive after he submits a copy of
the service provider's invoice for the covered expense.

Agreement to follow them, shall be enforceable in an action to compel or stay
arbitration pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act or the Indiana Uniform
Arbitration Act in a court of competent jurisdiction.

D. In reliance on this Agreement, Executive is willing to continue his
employment with Company on the terms agreed to by Executive and Company from
time to time.
In consideration of the premises, Company and Executive agree as

appropriate actions to correct such failure within thirty (30) days; or
(2) Executive's willful engaging in misconduct that has caused
demonstrable and material injury, monetary or otherwise, to Company or an

For purposes of this Subsection (c), no act or failure to act on

calendar month before the effective date of Executive's termination of

case of a transaction described in Paragraph 2(d)(3) or (4), the later effective
date of such transaction) before such termination date.

Period for a reason other than Cause or Executive's death or Disability,
Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits:
(1) An amount equal to Executive's Termination Compensation multiplied
by the number of months in the Payment Period. Executive's Termination

salary (unreduced by any elective salary deferrals or redirections) during the
twelve (12) month period immediately preceding his termination of employment
plus (ii) one-twelfth of his average annual incentive compensation with respect

initiate a claim or case by a written notice delivered to Executive, as provided
in this Agreement. The written notice must set forth the matter in dispute in

the dispute or claim, the date(s) of the underlying occurrence(s), and the
relief requested. It shall also be the initiating party's responsibility to
submit the claim and other required documents and fees to AAA in a timely

the State of Indiana applicable to the claim, dispute, or controversy submitted,
where such relief is warranted based on the evidence and the law. Any
arbitration award shall be final and binding, and enforceable by an action in
any court of competent jurisdiction. No award shall be set aside, or denied
enforcement, by any court in any action unless the court finds that the
arbitrator purported to resolve claims, disputes, or controversies not within
the scope of these Procedures. Adherence to these Procedures, and the agreement
of the parties to this Agreement to follow them, shall be enforceable in an
action to compel or stay arbitration pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act or
the Indiana Uniform Arbitration Act in a court of competent jurisdiction.

management employees pursuant to which Executive is entitled to any retirement
benefits, welfare benefits, stock, or other fringe benefits.
4. NON-COMPETITION. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in any
---------------

5. NON-DISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Executive acknowledges
------------------------------------------
that, by virtue of his employment, he has obtained or will obtain Confidential

Accordingly, except as expressly provided to the contrary in any written
employment agreement between CNB and/or any of its subsidiaries and Executive,
Executive covenants and agrees with Company that, except as necessary to perform
his obligations to Company or with the prior written consent of Company's Board,
he will not at any time directly or indirectly disclose any Confidential
Information that he may acquire or has acquired by reason of his association
with Company. Without limiting the rights or remedies, both legal and
equitable, available to Company in the event of an actual or threatened breach
of Executive's obligations under this Section, Company shall be entitled to seek
and obtain a temporary restraining order and/or a preliminary or permanent
injunction against Executive, which shall prevent Executive from engaging in any
activities prohibited by this Section, or to seek and obtain such other relief
against Executive as may be required to enforce Executive's obligations
hereunder. Executive's obligations set forth in this Section and Company's
rights and remedies, whether legal or equitable, with respect thereto, shall
extend indefinitely.
6. EXPENSES. If Executive determines, in his absolute judgment, that it
--------
is necessary or advisable for him to incur reasonable legal and/or accounting
expenses, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' and/or accountants'
fees, to obtain full and effective enforcement of his rights under this
Agreement or to determine the appropriate tax treatment of amounts paid pursuant
to this Agreement, Company shall reimburse Executive for all such reasonable
expenses and costs on a periodic basis. Company's obligation to reimburse
Executive for these reasonable expenses or costs pursuant to this Section shall
survive expiration of the Term and shall survive the termination of any later
employment agreements between Executive and Company. Any

final and binding arbitration before a neutral arbitrator pursuant to the
arbitration procedures set out in this Section ("Procedures") under the auspices
of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) at Evansville, Indiana. The AAA
Employment Dispute Resolution Rules in effect at the time of the arbitration
shall govern arbitration proceedings, except insofar as these Procedures, as
they may be amended from time to time, specifically provide otherwise.
Executive may initiate a claim or case only by a written notice to Company as
provided in this Agreement. Company may likewise initiate a claim or case by a
written notice delivered to Executive, as provided in this Agreement. The
written notice must set forth the matter in dispute in sufficient detail to
advise the non-initiating party of the nature and amount of the dispute or
claim, the date(s) of the underlying occurrence(s), and the relief requested.
It shall also be the initiating party's responsibility to submit the claim and
other required documents and fees to AAA in a timely manner; provided, however,
if Executive is fully or partially successful, Company shall reimburse Executive
for arbitration fees reasonably incurred. In conducting arbitration
proceedings, the AAA-appointed arbitrator shall be authorized to award any
relief available under the laws of the United States or the State of Indiana
applicable to the claim, dispute, or controversy submitted, where such relief is
warranted
-10-
<PAGE>
based on the evidence and the law. Any arbitration award shall be final and
binding, and enforceable by an action in any court of competent jurisdiction. No
award shall be set aside, or denied enforcement, by any court in any action
unless the court finds that the arbitrator purported to resolve claims,
disputes, or controversies not within the scope of these Procedures. Adherence
to these Procedures, and the agreement of the parties to this Agreement to
follow them, shall be enforceable in an action to compel or stay arbitration
pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act or the Indiana Uniform Arbitration Act
in a court of competent jurisdiction.

-----------
the parties with respect to the matters covered herein.

of which shall be deemed to be an original but which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument.
16. EFFECT OF HEADINGS. The section headings in this Agreement are for
------------------
convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.

Officer a certificate setting forth, in reasonable detail, CNB's calculation of
the Pre-Tax Income and the amount of Incentive Compensation, if any, due

(C) OTHER BENEFITS. The Officer shall, during the Term of this
--------------
Agreement, be entitled to participate in (i) any and all employee welfare plans,

SECTION 5. TERMINATION. Except as provided below in this Section 5, the
---------- -----------
Officer shall receive from Wedgewood, upon the termination of the Officer's
employment during the Term of this Agreement, the benefits provided in Section 6
hereof, unless such termination was (a) because of the Officer's death or
Retirement, (b) by Wedgewood for Grave Cause or Disability, or (c) by the
Officer other than for Good Reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event
that the Officer's employment is terminated during the Term of this Agreement
under circumstances (e.g., a change of control of CNB) which would entitle the
Officer to severance payments and benefits under any Change of Control Agreement
between CNB and the Officer, then the Officer shall not be entitled to receive
any payments hereunder as a result of such termination. As used herein, the
terms "Disability," "Retirement," "Grave Cause" and "Good Reason" shall have the
meanings set forth below.
(I) DISABILITY. "Disability" shall mean termination because
----------
of the Officer's absence from duties with Wedgewood on a full time basis for 100
business days during any period of 150 consecutive business days, as a result of
incapacity due to physical or mental illness.
(II) RETIREMENT. "Retirement" shall mean termination by
----------
Wedgewood based on the Officer's having reached age 65 or such other age as
shall have been fixed in any arrangement established with the Officer's consent.
(III) GRAVE CAUSE. "Grave Cause" shall mean and shall be
-----------
limited to the following (1) Officer's willful and continued failure to perform
(other than a failure resulting from Officer's illness or Disability) his
employment duties after a demand for substantial performance is delivered to
Officer on behalf of the Board of Directors of Wedgewood or CNB that
specifically identifies the manner in which such Board of Directors alleges that
Officer has failed to perform his duties and Officer's failure to take
appropriate actions to correct such failure within thirty (30) days; or (2)
Officer's willful engaging in misconduct that has caused demonstrable and
material injury, monetary or otherwise, to CNB or Wedgewood or their respective
affiliates. For purposes of this definition of "Grave Cause," no act or failure
to act on Officer's part shall be considered "willful" unless done, or omitted
to be done, by Officer not in good faith and without reasonable belief that his
action or omission was in the best interests of Wedgewood and/or CNB.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Officer shall not be deemed to have been
terminated for Grave Cause unless and until the Board of Directors of Wedgewood
or CNB has delivered to him a copy of a notice of termination, and
<PAGE>
after reasonable notice to him and an opportunity for him, together with
counsel, to be heard before the Board, at least two-thirds of the Board finds,
in its reasonable opinion, that Officer was guilty of conduct set forth above in
clause (1) or (2) and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.
(IV) GOOD REASON. "Good Reason" shall mean termination by the
-----------
Officer of his employment based on the occurrence of a material breach by
Wedgewood of any provision of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such
occurrence shall not be deemed a "Good Reason" if the Officer consents thereto.
(V) NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Any termination by Wedgewood
---------------------
pursuant to Sections 5(i), (ii) or (iii) above or by the Officer pursuant to
Section 5(iv) above shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination
delivered to the other party hereto. As used herein, a "Notice of Termination"
shall mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in
this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the facts
and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Officer's
employment under the provision so indicated.
(VI) DATE OF TERMINATION. "Date of Termination" shall mean (A)
-------------------
if the Officer's employment is terminated on account of Disability or pursuant
to Section 5(iii) above, the date specified in the Notice of Termination, (B) if
the Officer's employment is terminated on account of the Officer's death, the
date of the Officer's death, and (C) if the Officer's employment is terminated
for any other reason, the date on which a Notice of Termination is given.
SECTION 6. CERTAIN BENEFITS UPON TERMINATION. Subject to the exception
--------- ---------------------------------
set forth in the second sentence of Section 5 hereof, if, during the Term of
this Agreement, the Officer's employment by Wedgewood shall be terminated (A) by
Wedgewood other than for Grave Cause, Disability, Retirement or death, or (B) by
the Officer for Good Reason, then the Officer shall receive from Wedgewood, for
a period of time equal to the unexpired Term of this Agreement, on a semi-
monthly basis, an amount equal to the Officer's semi-monthly Base Salary payable
at the Date of Termination (the "Termination Payments"). Such Termination
Payments shall be the only amounts, payments and damages payable by Wedgewood or
CNB in the event of the termination of the Officer as provided in this Section
6. Such Termination Payments shall be payable in the manner and in accordance
with the customary payroll practices of Wedgewood. The provisions of this
Agreement, and any Termination Payment provided for hereunder, shall not,
however, reduce any amounts otherwise payable, or in any way diminish the
Officer's rights, under any benefit plan, incentive plan, stock option plan, or
other plan or arrangement pursuant to which the Officer receives benefits from
Wedgewood. If, during the Term of this Agreement, the Officer's employment by
Wedgewood shall be terminated (A) by Wedgewood for Grave Cause, Disability,
Retirement or death, or (B) by the Officer for other than Good Reason, the
Officer shall not be entitled to receive any amounts or payments from Wedgewood
on account of such termination (other than any compensation payable by Wedgewood
to the Officer up to and including the Date of Termination).

plus two (2) years (the "Non-Compete Term"), the Officer shall not, directly or
indirectly, and the Officer shall not participate or take part (as a director,

solicit or attempt to solicit or otherwise accept for the Officer's own benefit
or for the benefit of others (1) the employment or services of any then-present

their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, successors and assigns), or (C) use
or otherwise disseminate or attempt to use or disseminate any information
relating to Wedgewood or CNB (and their respective subsidiaries, affiliates,

this Section 7, the term "stockholder" shall not include any investment in any
entity, public or private, where the Officer owns less than one percent (1%) of
the stock or other ownership interest issued and outstanding.
(II) Anything to the contrary in Sections 7(b)(i) and 8 hereof
notwithstanding, if, at any time hereafter, the Officer's employment by
Wedgewood shall be terminated (A) by Wedgewood other than for Grave Cause, or

The Officer shall continue, during the Non-Compete Term, to be subject to and
bound by each and every other term, provision, restriction and prohibition set
forth in Section 7(b)(i) not expressly permitted in this Section 7(b)(ii).
(III) The Officer hereby agrees that the restrictions set
forth in this Section 7 are an integral aspect of this Agreement and are
reasonable and necessary and, accordingly, that Wedgewood and CNB (and their
respective subsidiaries, affiliates, successors and assigns) shall, anything to
the contrary in Section 20 hereof notwithstanding, be entitled to injunctive
relief, from a court having jurisdiction with respect to the matter, for the
purpose of restraining the Officer and any entity in which the Officer has an
interest (as described in Section 7(b)(i) hereof) from any actual or threatened
breach of the restrictions set forth in this Section 7 and to any other
appropriate relief. If any action is maintained to enforce any term of the
restrictions set forth in this Section 7, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to receive its reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses from the other party. If
any court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator determines that the time
period, activities covered or the geographical scope referenced in this Section
7 is unreasonable or otherwise in contravention of the law, said restrictions
shall not be determined to be null and void and of no effect, but shall be
reformed by said court or arbitrator to impose a reasonable time period,
activities covered or geographical scope, as the case may be.

--------
termination of this Agreement.

AGREEMENT
---------
In consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants herein contained
and other good and valuable consideration (the receipt, adequacy and sufficiency
of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties by their execution hereof), the
parties hereby agree as follows:
SECTION 1. EMPLOYMENT. Wedgewood shall employ the Officer as Chief
--------- ----------
Investment Officer of Wedgewood, and the Officer agrees to be so employed during
the Term (as defined in Section 2 hereof) of this Agreement, upon the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth.
SECTION 2. TERM OF AGREEMENT. The term of this Agreement (the "Term")
--------- -----------------
shall commence on the date hereof and shall continue in full force and effect
until December 31, 2002; provided, however, that the obligations and the limited
rights of the Officer under Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall survive the expiration
of the Term as provided therein.
SECTION 3. DUTIES. During the Term of this Agreement, the Officer shall
--------- ------
devote his full time and best efforts in carrying out his duties as contemplated
in Section 1 hereof. The Officer
<PAGE>

or its successors in the capacity set forth above (or such other assigned
duties) and to devote his full-time professional energies, attention, care,
undivided loyalty and best efforts to the performance of such services and the
fulfillment of duties attendant thereto.
SECTION 4. COMPENSATION. As full consideration for all services the
--------- ------------
Officer shall render to Wedgewood hereunder, Wedgewood shall compensate the
Officer in the following manner:
(A) BASE SALARY. Wedgewood shall pay the Officer an annual salary of
-----------
$75,000 (the "Base Salary"), payable in the manner and in accordance with the
customary payroll practices of Wedgewood. The amount of the Officer's Base
Salary shall be reviewed by the Board of Directors of Wedgewood annually and may
be increased from time to time (but not decreased) in accordance with
Wedgewood's normal business practices. The Officer shall not receive additional
compensation or fees for service on the Board of Directors of Wedgewood or any

--------------
Agreement, be entitled to participate in (i) any and all employee welfare plans,

Bancshares, Inc. Short-Term Incentive Plan, at a Level III, commencing in 1998.
SECTION 5. TERMINATION. Except as provided below in this Section 5, the

hereof, unless such termination was (a) because of the Officer's death or
Retirement, (b) by Wedgewood for Grave Cause or Disability, or (c) by the
Officer other than for Good Reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event
that the Officer's employment is terminated during the Term of this Agreement
under circumstances (e.g., a change of control of CNB) which would entitle the
Officer to severance payments and benefits under any Change of Control Agreement
between CNB and the Officer, then the Officer shall not be entitled to receive
any payments hereunder as a result of such termination. As used herein, the
terms "Disability," "Retirement," "Grave Cause" and "Good Reason" shall have the
meanings set forth below.
(I) DISABILITY. "Disability" shall mean termination because
----------
of the Officer's absence from duties with Wedgewood on a full time basis for 100
business days during any period of 150 consecutive business days, as a result of
incapacity due to physical or mental illness.
(II) RETIREMENT. "Retirement" shall mean termination by
----------
Wedgewood based on the Officer's having reached age 65 or such other age as
shall have been fixed in any arrangement established with the Officer's consent.
(III) GRAVE CAUSE. "Grave Cause" shall mean and shall be
-----------
limited to the following (1) Officer's willful and continued failure to perform
(other than a failure resulting from Officer's illness or Disability) his
employment duties after a demand for substantial performance is delivered to
Officer on behalf of the Board of Directors of Wedgewood or CNB that
specifically identifies the manner in which such Board of Directors alleges that
Officer has failed to perform his duties and Officer's failure to take
appropriate actions to correct such failure within thirty (30) days; or
2
<PAGE>
(2) Officer's willful engaging in misconduct that has caused demonstrable and
material injury, monetary or otherwise, to CNB or Wedgewood or their respective
affiliates. For purposes of this definition of "Grave Cause," no act or failure
to act on Officer's part shall be considered "willful" unless done, or omitted
to be done, by Officer not in good faith and without reasonable belief that his
action or omission was in the best interests of Wedgewood and/or CNB.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Officer shall not be deemed to have been
terminated for Grave Cause unless and until the Board of Directors of Wedgewood
or CNB has delivered to him a copy of a notice of termination, and after
reasonable notice to him and an opportunity for him, together with counsel, to
be heard before the Board, at least two-thirds of the Board finds, in its
reasonable opinion, that Officer was guilty of conduct set forth above in clause
(1) or (2) and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.
(IV) GOOD REASON. "Good Reason" shall mean termination by the
-----------
Officer of his employment based on the occurrence of a material breach by
Wedgewood of any provision of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such
occurrence shall not be deemed a "Good Reason" if the Officer consents thereto.
(V) NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Any termination by Wedgewood
---------------------
pursuant to Sections 5(i), (ii) or (iii) above or by the Officer pursuant to
Section 5(iv) above shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination
delivered to the other party hereto. As used herein, a "Notice of Termination"
shall mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in
this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the facts
and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Officer's
employment under the provision so indicated.
(VI) DATE OF TERMINATION. "Date of Termination" shall mean
-------------------
(A) if the Officer's employment is terminated on account of Disability or
pursuant to Section 5(iii) above, the date specified in the Notice of
Termination, (B) if the Officer's employment is terminated on account of the
Officer's death, the date of the Officer's death, and (C) if the Officer's
employment is terminated for any other reason, the date on which a Notice of
Termination is given.
SECTION 6. CERTAIN BENEFITS UPON TERMINATION. Subject to the exception
--------- ---------------------------------
set forth in the second sentence of Section 5 hereof, if, during the Term of
this Agreement, the Officer's employment by Wedgewood shall be terminated (A) by
Wedgewood other than for Grave Cause, Disability, Retirement or death, or (B) by
the Officer for Good Reason, then the Officer shall receive from Wedgewood, for
a period of time equal to the unexpired Term of this Agreement, on a semi-
monthly basis, an amount equal to the Officer's semi-monthly Base Salary payable
at the Date of Termination (the "Termination Payments"). Such Termination
Payments shall be the only amounts, payments and damages payable by Wedgewood or
CNB in the event of the termination of the Officer as provided in this Section
6. Such Termination Payments shall be payable in the manner and in accordance
with the customary payroll practices of Wedgewood. The provisions of this
Agreement, and any Termination Payment provided for hereunder, shall not,
however, reduce any amounts otherwise payable, or in any way diminish the
Officer's rights, under any benefit plan, incentive plan, stock option plan, or
other plan or arrangement pursuant to which the Officer receives benefits from
Wedgewood. If, during the Term of this Agreement, the Officer's employment by
Wedgewood shall be terminated (A) by Wedgewood for Grave Cause, Disability,
Retirement or death, or (B) by the Officer for other than Good Reason, the
Officer shall not be entitled to receive any amounts or payments from Wedgewood
on account of such termination (other than any compensation payable by Wedgewood
to the Officer up to and including the Date of Termination).

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
This section presents management's review of the operating results and financial
condition of CNB Bancshares, Inc. (the Corporation) and its subsidiaries. It
provides information which is not otherwise apparent from the Consolidated
Financial Statements and related footnotes and is intended to assist readers in
evaluating the Corporation's performance. The following analysis should be read
in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes
as well as the average balance sheet and selected statistical information
presented in other sections of the report. All dollar amounts throughout this
discussion and report are presented in thousands, except for per share data, and
all share data has been adjusted for common stock dividends.
The Corporation's financial data for periods prior to mergers accounted
for as poolings of interests, and having a material impact on the Corporation's
financial results, has been restated.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income for the year ended December 31, 1998, was $61,571, an increase of
2.8% over the $59,874 earned in 1997. Diluted net income per share of $1.73 in
1998 represented an increase of 2.4% over 1997. The Corporation completed its
merger with Pinnacle Financial Services (Pinnacle) on April 17, 1998. In
conjunction with that merger, which was accounted for as a pooling of interests,
the Corporation recorded merger and related charges in second quarter 1998 of
$41,346 ($30,214 net of tax), which equated to $.80 per share for the year.
These charges are discussed further in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements. Pinnacle recorded net of tax charges of $13,994 in connection with
mergers it consummated in third quarter 1997. Excluding the merger and related
charges recorded in 1998 and 1997, operating income was $91,785 and $73,868,
respectively, an increase of 24.3%. Diluted operating income per share, which
excludes the merger and related charges, increased 21.1% to $2.53 in 1998 from
1997's $2.09. The increase in 1998 operating earnings was the result of
increased net interest income and fee income, reduced provision for loan losses
and controlled expense growth. The increase in net interest income was primarily
due to the June 1998 issuance of the Guaranteed Preferred Beneficial Interests
in the Corporation's Convertible Subordinated Debentures (trust preferred
securities) as discussed in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Net
interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis (FTE) increased $10,983, or
4.6%, from 1997, excluding 1998's accounting conformity adjustments of $4,012
related to the Pinnacle merger. Non-interest income, exclusive of conformity
adjustments of $252, increased $25,006, or 30.5%, compared to 1997. The
provision for loan losses decreased in 1998 by $14,248. The reduced provision in
1998 was primarily the result of the companies acquired by Pinnacle in third
quarter 1997 increasing reserves to conform to Pinnacle's policy for credit risk
and lower net charge-offs in 1998. Non-interest expense included merger and
related charges of $37.1 million in 1998 and $11.1 million in 1997. Excluding
those charges, non-interest expense increased $7,624, or 4.1%, in 1998.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Net income increased 11.5% in 1997 from the $53,682 earned in 1996
primarily due to increases in net interest income and non-interest income.
Growth in earning assets, offset by a lower net interest margin, resulted in
increased FTE net interest income of $16,687 from 1996. Non-interest income
increased $13,294 as growth was experienced in most categories from 1996.
Non-interest expenses increased $6,919 during 1997. The Corporation recorded a
$10,963 SAIF recapitalization charge in 1996. Excluding merger charges in 1997
and the SAIF charge in 1996, expenses increased $6,793, or 3.8%. The provision
for loan losses increased in 1997 by $11,603 from 1996 primarily to conform
allowance for loan losses methodology as previously discussed. Excluding 1997
merger charges and the 1996 SAIF charge, operating income per diluted share
increased 22.9% in 1997 to $2.09 from $1.70 in 1996.
The following table reconciles the changes in diluted net income per share
from 1996 to 1998 by major income statement components which are further
discussed below.

1997 and 54% in 1998.
The Corporation's operating earnings, which exclude merger and related
charges to allow meaningful comparisons, resulted in returns on average assets
and shareholders' equity of 1.37% and 17.88%, respectively, in 1998 compared
with a return on assets of 1.14% and return on equity of 14.83% in 1997.
Excluding the SAIF recapitalization charge, returns on average assets and

Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the Corporation's largest component of income and
represents the difference between interest and fees earned on loans and
investments and the interest paid on interest bearing liabilities. In this
discussion, FTE net interest income is presented whereby tax exempt income, such
as interest on securities of state and political subdivisions, has been
increased to an amount that would have been earned had such income been taxable.
This adjustment places taxable and nontaxable income on a common basis and
permits comparisons of rates and yields. Also to aid in year-to-year
comparisons, this discussion and analysis excludes 1998 net interest income
accounting conformity adjustments totaling $4,012. A detailed analysis of net
interest income, with average balances and related interest rates for the past
three years, appears on page 37 of this report.
In 1998, FTE net interest income increased $10,983, or 4.6%, to $250,309
compared to $239,326 in 1997, primarily due to the issuance of the trust
preferred securities. Net interest income in 1997 increased $16,687, or 7.5%,
over the $222,639 recorded in 1996. The amount of net interest income is
affected by changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities and the interest rates on these assets and liabilities. An analysis
of how changes in volumes and rates have affected net interest income for the
years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, is presented below.

</TABLE>
* Fully taxable equivalent
Notes: The change in interest which cannot be attributed to only a
change in rate or a change in volume, but instead represents a
combination of the two factors, has been allocated to the rate
variance.
Analysis is based on net interest income before accounting
conformity charges in 1998, as discussed herein.
Average earning assets, which include loans, investment securities and
other assets that earn interest, increased $146,939 during 1998 to $6,223,962.
Loans, including loans held for sale, increased $93,738, and investment
securities grew $57,851. This asset growth was funded primarily by the issuance
of the trust preferred securities and growth in deposits. The trust preferred
securities averaged $90,555 for 1998; deposits increased $180,920 to $4,724,775
in 1998. Average earning assets were $6,077,023 and interest bearing liabilities
were $5,489,231 in 1997, increases of $562,829 and $559,515, respectively, from
1996. As the preceding analysis indicates, this increased volume resulted in
$10,454 and $17,467 of additional net interest income in 1998 and 1997,
respectively, over the previous years'.
The net interest margin is a percentage computed by dividing FTE net
interest income by average earning assets and represents a basic measure of
interest earned on interest bearing assets held by the Corporation, less the
interest expense to fund such assets. The net interest margin increased 8 basis
points (b.p.) primarily due to the issuance of the trust preferred securities to
4.02% in 1998 from 3.94% in 1997, which had decreased 10 b.p. from 1996.
<PAGE>
22 CNB BANCSHARES, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The earning asset yield decreased 14 b.p. to 8.20% in 1998 compared to the
22 b.p. decrease, to 4.18%, in the cost to fund earning assets. The loan and
investment security growth experienced in 1998 was at marginally lower rates;
and, consequently, average loan yields and security yields declined 6 b.p. and
20 b.p., respectively, from 1997 to 1998. The cost to fund earning assets
decreased as a result of the issuance of trust preferred securities and lower
costs on interest bearing liabilities. The prime interest rate was reduced three
times in fourth quarter 1998 by a total of 75 b.p. as a result of Federal
Reserve actions. These reductions placed further pressure on the net interest
margin as the earning assets repriced downward more quickly than interest
bearing liabilities. In addition, additional investments in corporate-owned life
insurance, which income is recorded as non-interest income but funded with
interest bearing liabilities, resulted in a lower net interest margin.
The earning asset yield increased 5 b.p. to 8.34% in 1997, partially
offsetting a 15 b.p. increase, to 4.40%, in the cost to fund earning assets. The
increase in the cost to fund earning assets resulted from competitive pricing to
attract deposits, customers shifting to higher-priced deposit products and
non-deposit funding at marginally higher rates to support the growth in earning
assets. Additionally, the sale of the credit card portfolio in May 1997 and
investments in corporate-owned life insurance resulted in a lower net interest
margin.
To reduce the impact of changing interest rates on its costs to acquire
liabilities that fund certain earning assets, the Corporation has entered into
interest rate swaps (swaps). These agreements represent an exchange of interest
payments and require the Corporation to pay a fixed rate and receive a
LIBOR-based variable rate payment. The amortization of premiums paid for
interest rate caps, which were formerly used by the Corporation, totaled $1,411,
$2,055 and $1,637 in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. This expense was offset
by counterparty reimbursements of $151, $364 and $767, respectively, during the
same periods.

CNB BANCSHARES, INC. 23
Service charges on deposit accounts increased 34.2% in 1998 compared to an
increase of 16.3% in 1997. Growth in these fees resulted from an increased
number of deposit accounts, chargeable services, higher activity fees and new
fee sources combined with improved efforts to collect a greater percentage of
assessable fees.
Mortgage banking revenue increased $11,541 in 1998, or 126.4%, due to the
strong demand for new and refinanced residential mortgages and increased loan
sales. The Corporation sold the majority of its 1998 loan production in addition
to approximately $100 million of Pinnacle loans to generate fee income and limit
its long-term interest rate exposure. The Corporation continues to service most
of these sold loans. In third quarter 1998, a gain of $1,361 was recorded on the
sale of the servicing rights of an out-of-market, sub-serviced portfolio
acquired with a 1995 merger. Mortgage banking revenue for 1997 decreased $1,950
due to fewer loan sales and securitizations. At December 31, 1998, the
Corporation was servicing $1,090,044 of residential mortgage loans which had
been sold compared to $1,083,192 at December 31, 1997.
Revenues from insurance premiums and commissions increased 26.9% to
$12,134 in 1998. Income from the sale of life, health and disability insurance
increased $1,796, or 40.0%, in 1998. Casualty insurance premiums written by the
Corporation's agencies increased $465, or 10.0%. Profit sharing bonuses received
from insurance underwriters during 1998, which are experience-related and
associated with prior year property and casualty policies written, were $310
greater than payments received in 1997. Insurance revenues increased 20.8% in
1997 compared to 1996 principally due to higher casualty insurance commissions
from the Corporation's insurance agencies.
Trust and plan administration fees increased $1,751 to $11,589 in 1998,
excluding accounting conformity adjustments of $100. Trust fee income, based
primarily on the market value of assets under management or custody, increased
18.2% in 1998. Plan administration fees earned by the Corporation's third party
administrator of employee benefit plans, Small Parker & Blossom, increased $418,
or 16.7%. The Corporation continues to increase its trust client base and fee
revenues through product expansion and cross-selling of services. Trust and plan
administration fees increased $2,118 in 1997. Trust fees accounted for $817 of
the increase over 1996 while plan administration fees increased $1,301 due to
the May 31, 1996, purchase of Small Parker & Blossom.
Non-interest fees on loans increased $116, or 1.5%, from 1997 primarily
due to increased fees from loan originations and letter of credit commissions.
These increases were offset by lower revenues from credit card fees, as the
credit card portfolio was sold in second quarter 1997. Non-interest fees on
loans increased $361, or 5.0%, to $7,637 in 1997 due to higher loan origination
fees and merchant transaction volumes offset by lower credit card revenues due
to the May 1997 sale of the portfolio.
Investment product fees increased 2.9% in 1998 due to the January 1998
acquisition of Wedgewood Partners. The increase in 1998 was reduced as several
investment representatives at Pinnacle terminated employment prior to its merger
with the Corporation. Consequently, the Northern Indiana/Michigan Division
operated with fewer representatives for much of 1998. Investment products fees
increased 25.1% in 1997, or $1,334, as the Corporation placed a greater emphasis
on the sale of annuities, mutual funds and other non-traditional banking
products.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Net securities gains remained relatively the same for 1998, 1997 and 1996
at $2,126, $2,122 and $2,204, respectively. Certain securities were sold each
year when those securities were called under covered call option contracts that
the Corporation had sold.
Other income increased $1,880 in 1998 from 1997. Other income included
increases of $1,765 from net securities trading account gains, $1,701 from
income on corporate-owned life insurance and $647 from the expiration of covered
call option contracts. Gains on sale of non-mortgage loans decreased $1,540, of
which $646 related to the May 1997 sale of the credit card portfolio. Gains
realized on the sale of foreclosed properties declined by $446 in 1998. Other
income increased $7,077 in 1997 compared with 1996. The items with increases
over 1996 included income from corporate-owned life insurance, gains on expired
covered call option contracts, net securities trading account gains and
non-customer ATM access fees. The gain on sale of the credit card portfolio, as
discussed above, also contributed to the increase in 1997.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
Non-interest expenses increased $33,617, or 16.9%, in 1998. Expenses totaling
$37,082 related to the Pinnacle merger and its conversion to the Corporation's
systems were recorded in second quarter 1998. Excluding these charges and the
$11,089 of merger and related charges incurred in third quarter 1997 by
Pinnacle, non-interest expenses increased $7,624, or 4.1%, from 1997. Non-
interest expenses increased 3.6% from 1996 to 1997. Expenses in 1996 included a
SAIF recapitalization charge of $10,963. Excluding these charges, 1997 non-
interest expenses increased $6,793, or 3.8%.

</TABLE>
The largest category of non-interest expense relates to salaries and
employee benefits. Excluding severance payments recorded at Pinnacle in 1998 and
1997 of $10,501 and $4,632, respectively, salaries and employee benefits
increased $2,185, or 2.2%, in 1998. Excluding the severance payments, salaries
and employee benefits accounted for 51.5% of total non-interest expense adjusted
for merger and related charges. This compares to 52.4% and 49.9% for 1997 and
1996, respectively, excluding merger and SAIF charges. Incentive compensation
decreased $707 to $9,070 in 1998 and represented 9.0% of salaries and employee
benefits expense compared to 9.9% in 1997. The Corporation continues to
emphasize performance-based awards tied to net income per share and product
sales. Salaries, excluding severance, increased $2,228 in 1998, due to normal
merit increases and the purchase of Wedgewood Partners effective January 1,
1998. Salaries and benefits expense in 1997, excluding severance, increased 8.8%
to $98,393 from 1996 due primarily to increased incentive commissions resulting
from additional sales activity and the May 1996 acquisitions where prior periods
were not restated.

Equipment expenses increased 58.2% in 1998 compared to 1997. Charges to
write-down equipment not needed after Pinnacle's conversion to the Corporation's
data processing systems in 1998, to its fair value, amounted to $5,488.
Equipment expenses excluding those charges increased $887, or 8.1%, due to the
operation of an additional non-bank subsidiary and additional banking offices.
Equipment expenses increased 7.9% in 1997. A full year of expenses was incurred
in 1997 for facilities acquired in May 1996.
Data processing and other services decreased 2.4% in 1998. Excluding the
Pinnacle conversion costs incurred in both 1998 and 1997, data processing and
other services remained flat at $15,282 compared to $15,286 in 1997. Increased
expenses for brokerage clearings at Wedgewood, which was acquired in 1998,
offset reduced credit card processing fees due to the 1997 sale of the credit
card portfolio, as discussed earlier. The outsourced operation of most data
processing activities has permitted the Corporation to process the increased
transaction volumes of acquired institutions and internally-generated growth
with minimal incremental cost. Data processing expenses, excluding merger
charges, increased 8.7% in 1997 compared to 1996 due to increased business
activity.
Occupancy expenses increased $3,003 in 1998. Office closures and write-
downs associated with the Pinnacle merger accounted for $1,781 of the increase.
When those charges are excluded, 1998 occupancy expenses increased $1,222, or
9.1%, due to additional facilities being operated. Occupancy expenses increased
$434, or 3.3%, in 1997.
Professional fees increased $7,170 in 1998 compared to 1997. Included in
1998 and 1997 were $8,153 and $1,779, respectively, of legal, accounting and
investment banker fees in connection with the 1998 merger of Pinnacle with the
Corporation and 1997 mergers at Pinnacle. Professional fees excluding those
expenses increased $796, or 11.5%, due to increases in legal fees, expenses
associated with potential mergers and outsourced staff functions. Professional
fees increased in 1997, after excluding the charges associated with mergers, by
$973, or 16.3%. The 1997 increase was due to increased outsourced staff
functions and consulting expenses incurred by Pinnacle following their 1997
mergers.
Advertising and promotion expense increased to $7,380 in 1998 due to
increased marketing efforts primarily related to checking account promotions.
Expenses for advertising and promotion in 1997 were reduced 3.0% as management
chose not to offer any significant credit card solicitations during 1997 in
light of the pending sale of its portfolio.
Printing and supplies increased $697, or 13.8%, in 1998 over 1997.
Expenses related to the Pinnacle merger accounted for $405 of the increase. An
increase of 5.8% would have been realized excluding those merger and related
charges. Printing and supplies for 1997 declined 2.2% due to cost containment
efforts.
Postage and freight and telecommunication expenses increased 9.1% and
17.2%, respectively, in 1998 over 1997. The increases are due to additional
communication needed with recently completed acquisitions, the expanded distance
in the Corporation's branch network and higher levels of business activity. The
increases in postage and freight and telecommunication expenses in 1997 were
generally due to higher levels of business activity when compared to 1996.
Amortization of intangible assets increased 4.8% and 5.4% in 1998 and
1997, respectively. The purchase of Wedgewood Partners in January 1998 and the
1997 full year effect of purchase acquisitions closed in May 1996 account for
the increases. Goodwill resulting from these acquisitions totaled $2.3 million
and $6.4 million, respectively, and is being amortized on a straight-line basis
over periods not exceeding 15 years.
Other expenses increased 32.0%, or $6,471 in 1998. Excluding charges
associated with the 1998 Pinnacle merger and mergers at Pinnacle in 1997 of
$9,018 and $2,724, respectively, other expenses increased by $177, or 1.0%. FDIC
assessments, travel and foreclosed property expenses increased from 1997 while
directors fees, subscriptions and ceding fees and policy reserves for the
Corporation's reassurance company all decreased from 1997. Other expenses,
excluding the merger charges recorded by Pinnacle, were lower in 1997 over 1996
by 22.5%. This relates to the charges recorded in 1996 for the closure of five
offices, equipment write-offs and other operational charges taken.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense for 1998 was $35,056 compared to $30,906 in 1997 and $27,013
in 1996. The effective tax rate increased to 35.1% in 1998 from 34.0% and 33.5%
in 1997 and 1996, respectively. The effective tax rate was higher in 1998 due to
the non-deductibility of various Pinnacle merger expenses. Excluding the effects
of the merger and related charges, the effective tax rate in 1998 would have
been 32.7%. The decline in the effective tax rate is attributable to an increase
in income from tax exempt sources, including municipal investments and
corporate-owned life insurance. Tax exempt interest income increased by $6,223
in 1998 as additional investments in municipal securities were made. In
addition, investments in corporate-owned life insurance policies on certain
officers generated $1,701 of additional tax exempt income in 1998 compared with
1997.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
The financial condition of the Corporation at December 31, 1998, is presented in
the comparative balance sheet of the consolidated financial statements. The
following discussion addresses loans and other components of earning assets,
sources of funds, capital resources, liquidity and interest rate sensitivity.
LOANS
Loans at December 31, 1998, decreased $96,178 to $3,891,269 compared to
$3,987,447 at the previous year-end. The Corporation continued to reduce its
residential mortgage portfolio by selling or securitizing most new production.
Additionally, management reclassified $96,462 of SBA loans purchased by Pinnacle
to held for sale in June 1998. These loans, previously included as commercial
and industrial, have prepayment risk and do not meet the Corporation's loan and
investment strategies. At December 31, 1998, $23,560 of the SBA loans remained
in loans held for sale. Growth was experienced in all loan categories during
1998 except for residential mortgage loans. Average loans, excluding residential
mortgage loans, were $2,774,552 during 1998, which represented a 12.2% increase
from 1997.
Commercial loans at December 31, 1998, were $1,344,110 and accounted for
34.5% of the loan portfolio compared with $1,281,143, or 32.1% of total loans,
at December 31, 1997. Excluding the reclassification of the purchased SBA loans
to held for sale as previously discussed, commercial loans increased $159,429,
or 13.5%.
Real estate mortgage loans, including residential, commercial and
agricultural loans secured by real estate and construction loans, decreased
$233,132 from 1997 and accounted for 40.3% of the total loan portfolio at
December 31, 1998. Residential mortgage loan balances decreased $304,331 from
December 31, 1997, to year-end 1998. Residential mortgage loans were 25.1% of
total loans at December 31, 1998, as compared to 32.1% at December 31, 1997. The
aggregate of commercial and agricultural mortgage and construction loans
represented 15.2% of total loans at year-end 1998 as compared to 13.0% at the
end of last year. Demand for new residential mortgage loans remained strong
throughout 1998, but the Corporation sold a significant portion of that
production in addition to approximately $100 million of Pinnacle loans to reduce
its long-term interest rate exposure and prepayment risk along with generating
fee income. The Corporation originated $731 million of residential mortgages in
1998 with loan sales and securitizations of $713 million. While the Corporation
may sell certain loans, servicing rights are generally retained. At December 31,
1998, $1,090,044 of residential mortgage loans originated by the Corporation and
subsequently sold in the secondary market were being serviced. The Corporation
had capitalized servicing rights of $7,485 relating to $783,037 of those loans.
Consumer loans, which include installment and home equity loans, increased
7.9% to $939,566 at December 31, 1998. Indirect installment loan balances
increased $68,130, or 27.1%, during 1998 to $319,610 due to increased indirect
automobile loan originations. Home equity and other revolving lines of credit
outstandings increased $4,997 during 1998, which represented an increase of 2.9%
over 1997. All other installment loans at December 31, 1998, had decreased
$4,192, or .9%, from December 31, 1997.
The Corporation's loan portfolio contains no loans to foreign governments,
foreign enterprises, foreign operations of domestic companies, highly-leveraged
transactions nor any concentrations to borrowers engaged in the same or similar
industries that exceed 10% of total loans.

RISK MANAGEMENT AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
An allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate by
management to absorb potential loan losses as determined by evaluations of the
loan portfolio on a continuing basis. This evaluation by management includes the
use of a model maintained by the Corporation's loan review function. The model
calculates reserves for specific loan categories classified as "criticized" and
for all remaining loans in the portfolio. The model utilizes historical loss
ratios updated annually, based on a rolling three years of actual loss
experience for "criticized" loans, and updated quarterly based on the actual
loss experience over the previous eight quarters for remaining loans. Also
considered are changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, the volume and
condition of the loan portfolio, expected cash flows or the observable market
price of the loans or the fair value of the collateral for impaired loans.
Further adjustments may be made relative to the financial condition of specific
borrowers and current economic conditions.
Loans with principal or interest payments contractually due but not yet
paid are reviewed weekly by management and are placed on nonaccrual status when
scheduled payments remain unpaid for 90 days or more, unless the loan is both
well secured and in the process of collection. Interest income on nonaccrual
loans is recorded when actually received (cash basis) in contrast to the accrual
basis, which records income over the period in which it is earned, regardless of
when it is received. Loans are charged to the allowance for loan losses when
deemed uncollectible by management, unless sufficient collateral exists to
adequately secure the loan.
The allowance for loan losses at December 31, 1998, was $56,271, or 1.45%
of loans, compared to $55,223, or 1.38% of loans, at the end of 1997. The
increased allowance ratio was driven by changes in the mix of loans in the
Corporation's portfolio and by applying
<PAGE>
CNB BANCSHARES, INC. 29
the Corporation's more stringent credit risk policy to the loans acquired in the
Pinnacle merger. As previously discussed, the Corporation has reduced its
residential mortgage portfolio. The commercial, consumer and real estate loans,
other than residential, now represent a higher percentage of the overall
portfolio. These loans generally produce higher yields but require higher
reserve levels due to their inherent risk profile. The allowance to loans ratio
was 1.45% at December 31, 1998, versus 1.38% at December 31, 1997.
The provision for loan losses represents a charge against income and a
corresponding increase to the allowance for loan losses. The 1998 provision was
reduced by $14,248 to $10,638 from $24,886 in 1997 when companies acquired by
Pinnacle increased reserves to conform to Pinnacle's policy for credit risk.
Lower charge-offs in 1998 also contributed to a lower provision in 1998. Net
charge-offs to average loans decreased to .30% in 1998 from .42% in 1997. Net
charge-offs in the commercial, real estate and consumer loan portfolios
decreased in 1998. The decline in commercial and real estate loan charge-offs
were in part due to the increased charge-offs in fourth quarter 1997 at Pinnacle
on loans where specific reserves had been established in third quarter 1997.
Consumer loan net charge-offs were down in 1998 due in part to the May 1997 sale
of the credit card portfolio and improved efforts in the collection of past due
and previously charged-off loans. The allowance for loan losses equaled 161% and
197% of total non-performing loans at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
A summary of loan loss experience and management's allocation of the
allowance for loan losses to the various loan categories for the years indicated

Note: Owner-occupied commercial real estate loans were reclassified to
commercial, industrial and agricultural production loans from real
estate mortgage loans at December 31, 1995. Prior year's balances
have not been reclassified.
Risk assets consist of loans on nonaccrual status, loans classified as
troubled debt restructurings, foreclosed properties and loans 90 days or more
past due but continuing to accrue interest. Although these assets have more than
a normal risk of loss, they will not necessarily result in a higher level of
losses in the future. As illustrated in the following table, which presents risk
assets for the past five years, non-performing loans at December 31, 1998,
increased by $6,990 from December 31, 1997. The increase is generally due to
management's continuing review of "criticized" loans and placing on nonaccrual
status several smaller loans acquired with the Pinnacle merger. In addition to
the loans classified as non-performing, there were other loans totaling $20,820
at December 31, 1998, where the borrowers were experiencing difficulties and
management was closely monitoring the borrowers' abilities to comply with
payment terms. However, conditions at this time do not warrant their
classification as non-performing loans. Management is not aware of any loans
that have not been disclosed that represent or result from trends or
uncertainties which may have a material impact on the Corporation's future
operating results, liquidity or capital resources.

Investment Securities
Investment securities represented 36.0% of average earning assets in both 1998
and 1997. The portfolio has continued to shift toward investments in
mortgage-backed securities which are predominantly underwritten to the standards
of, and guaranteed by, government sponsored agencies. These securities generally
yield 70-100 basis points more than comparable U.S. Treasury securities but
differ from traditional debt securities in that they have uncertain maturity
dates and are priced based on estimated prepayment rates on the underlying
mortgages. Prepayment rates generally can be expected to increase during periods
of lower interest rates as some of the underlying mortgages are refinanced at
lower rates. Conversely, the average lives of these securities generally are
extended as interest rates increase. Mortgage-backed securities represented
72.3% and 67.0% of total investment securities at December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. The estimated average lives of these securities and the overall
portfolio were 4.2 years and 5.5 years, respectively, at December 31, 1998,
based on current prepayment expectations. Additional state and municipal
securities were also purchased in 1997 and 1998 due to their higher tax
equivalent yields. At December 31, 1998, state and municipal securities
represented 18.8% of total investment securities compared to 12.8% one year
prior.
On December 31, 1998, in order to provide for more effective
asset/liability management, the entire held to maturity securities portfolio was
transferred to available for sale. The held to maturity portfolio had an
amortized cost of $191,658 and a fair value of $198,685 at the date of transfer.
The unrealized gain of $7,027 is included, net of tax, in accumulated other
comprehensive income. While management no longer has the positive intent to hold
such transferred securities to their maturity date, at December 31, 1998, there
were no immediate plans to sell any of the transferred securities.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Sources of Funds
The Corporation relies on customers' deposits, securities sold under repurchase
agreements, federal funds purchased and other borrowed funds along with
shareholders' equity to fund its earning assets. Additionally, the Corporation
raised $172,500 in 1998 by issuing trust preferred securities as discussed in
Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Proceeds were used to reduce
long-term debt by $45,000 and the remainder was invested in securities available
for sale.
Average total deposits increased 4.0% to $4,724,775 in 1998 compared to
1997. Average non-interest bearing checking deposits increased 17.1% in 1998
while interest bearing deposits grew 2.6% in 1998. Those interest bearing
products showing increases in 1998 were interest bearing checking, 5.0%, and
money market savings, 34.6%. The increases in non-interest bearing checking and
interest bearing checking deposits were the result of a corporate-wide campaign
targeting those products. During 1998, customers' preferences shifted to money
market savings accounts from savings accounts and certificates of deposit due to
a flat yield curve and as a result of the Corporation offering very competitive
pricing on these products.

Securities sold under repurchase agreements are acquired in national
markets as well as from the Corporation's commercial customers as a part of a
cash management service. Repurchase agreements generally provide the Corporation
with a lower interest cost than similar sources of funds and were $697,960 at
December 31, 1998, compared to $586,855 at year-end 1997. A portion of these
repurchase agreements, acquired to fund certain fixed rate earning assets, are
being hedged by interest rate swaps. Securities sold under repurchase agreements
averaged $546,660 in 1998 compared to $640,425 in 1997.
Federal funds purchased and other short-term borrowings increased $11,611
to $105,831 at December 31, 1998. At December 31, 1998, the Corporation had
$99,370 of federal funds purchased, which represent funds acquired overnight
from other financial institutions. Other short-term borrowings, principally U.S.
Treasury demand notes, totaled $6,461 at December 31, 1998, a decrease of
$30,379. These demand notes are subject to call by the Federal Reserve and carry
a variable interest rate.
Long-term debt totaled $626,759 at December 31, 1998, which represented a
decrease of $99,899 from one year earlier. Advances from the Federal Home Loan
Bank accounted for $614,201 of the long term debt total and continue to provide
a flexible and relatively inexpensive source of funds. The Corporation expects
to continue utilizing the FHLB as a core funding source for its subsidiary bank.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Corporation continues to maintain a strong capital position which supports
its current needs and provides a sound foundation to support further expansion.
At December 31, 1998, shareholders' equity had increased to $527,046. The amount
of net earnings retained after the payment of cash dividends was $32,811 for
1998 compared to $30,988 in the prior year. The dividend payout ratio was 47% in
1998 compared to 48% in 1997 and was higher than the 30% to 40% range normally
targeted by the Corporation due to the merger and related charges in both years
which reduced net income. The 1998 dividend payout ratio excluding those charges
was 31%. Book value per share at year-end 1998 increased to $14.85 from $14.66
one year earlier, an increase of 1.3%. If converted book value, which assumes
all stock options and convertible securities are converted into common stock,
was $18.33 at year-end compared to $15.09 at December 31, 1997. Shareholders'
equity averaged $513,322 during 1998, an increase of 3.0% from 1997.
In order to maintain its capital position at a desired level, the
Corporation maintains a stock repurchase program whereby 5% of its outstanding
shares are repurchased annually for specific corporate purposes, including but
not limited to an annual stock dividend. During 1998 and 1997, the Corporation
repurchased $53,459 and $37,552, respectively, of its common stock under this
program.
As discussed in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the
Corporation issued $172,500 of trust preferred securities in 1998. These
securities qualify as regulatory capital and are included in the Corporation's
Tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios which were 14.8%, 16.0% and
9.3%, respectively, all well above regulatory minimums.
After adjusting for stock dividends, dividends declared and paid per share
were $.90 for 1998, an increase of 9.8% over 1997. The indicated annual dividend
rate is currently $.96 per share. Excluding the merger and related charges and
SAIF assessment, to allow meaningful comparisons, the Corporation's return on
average shareholders' equity was 17.88% for 1998 compared to 14.83% in 1997 and
12.54% in 1996.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity
Liquidity is a measure of the Corporation's ability to meet its customers'
present and future deposit withdrawals and/or increased loan demand without
unduly penalizing earnings. Interest rate sensitivity involves the relationship
between rate sensitive assets and liabilities and is an indication of the
probable effects of interest rate movements on the Corporation's net interest
income. The Corporation manages both its liquidity and interest sensitivity
through a coordinated asset/liability management program directed by the Funds
Management and Investment Committee.
Liquidity is provided by projecting credit demand and other financial
needs and then maintaining sufficient funding sources and assets readily
convertible into cash to meet these requirements. The Corporation has provided
for its liquidity needs by maintaining adequate balances in money market assets,
through growth in core deposits, maturing loans and investments in its
securities portfolio and by maintaining various short-term borrowing sources. At
December 31, 1998, the Corporation had $459,836, or 6.4%, of total assets in
investment securities maturing within one year. In addition, the Corporation had
over $174,000 available from unused federal funds purchased agreements and in
excess of $460,000 of available borrowing capacity from the Federal Home Loan
Bank. Management believes that maturing investment securities and unused
borrowing sources will be adequate to meet the liquidity needs for the
foreseeable future.
The Parent Company's liquidity includes its cash and short-term
investments and is generally provided by dividends received from its subsidiary
bank. Approximately $301,248 was available to the Parent at December 31, 1998,
from dividends by its subsidiary bank. Cash dividends received from subsidiaries
in 1998 were $42,270 compared to $39,523 in 1997. The Parent Company also has
available a $50,000 bank line of credit. At year-end, the entire $50,000 line of
credit remained available for future use.
Interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities are those which have yields
or rates subject to change within a future time period due to maturity or
changes in market rates. An ongoing objective of the Corporation's
asset/liability policy is to match rate-adjustable assets and liabilities at
similar maturity horizons so that changes in interest rates will not result in
wide fluctuations in net interest income. The Corporation manages its rate
sensitivity position through the use of variable rate loans and by matching
funds acquired, having a specific maturity, with loans, securities or money
market investments with similar maturities. The Corporation supplements this
approach through the use of interest rate swaps to reduce the impact of changing
interest rates on its cost to acquire certain variable rate funds. The
Corporation employs a variety of measurement techniques to identify and manage
its exposure to changing interest rates. A simulation model is used to measure
the Corporation's net interest income volatility to changes in the level of
interest rates, interest rate spreads, the shape of the yield curve and changing
product growth patterns and investment strategies. Results of the simulation
model indicate that the Corporation's net interest income would be affected by
1.5% or less should interest rates increase or decrease by up to 200 basis
points gradually over twelve months. Additionally, a rate sensitivity position
is computed for various repricing intervals by calculating rate sensitivity
gaps. The following table shows the Corporation's interest rate sensitivity
analysis as of December 31, 1998. Interest earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities have been distributed based on their repricing opportunities. The
maturities of certain investments, loans and deposits have been adjusted based
on projected prepayment patterns or historical relationships to changes in
market interest rates. The repricing of certain liabilities has been adjusted to
reflect the expected benefit of interest rate contracts in place at year-end.
Although rate sensitivity gaps constantly change as funds are acquired and
invested, the Corporation's positive gap of $23,089 at one year or less as of
December 31, 1998, was approximately .3% of total assets. This, in the opinion
of management, represented a relatively balanced position. Net interest income
at financial institutions with positive gaps tends to increase in periods of
rising interest rates and decrease as interest rates fall.

* The Corporation's experience with interest bearing checking accounts, money
market and savings and non-interest bearing deposits has been that, although
these deposits are subject to immediate withdrawal or repricing, a portion of
the balances has remained relatively constant in periods of both rising and
falling rates. Therefore, a portion of these deposits is included in the
"Non-Sensitive" category.
YEAR 2000
The Corporation is subject to risks associated with the "Year 2000" issue, a
term which refers to uncertainties about the ability of various data processing
hardware and software systems to interpret dates correctly after the beginning
of the Year 2000. The Corporation began working on its Year 2000 plan in 1996
and formed a Project Committee (Committee) that meets weekly to review the
status of the plan. A full-time project leader manages the project while senior
management oversees it and regularly reports to the Board of Directors. The
Committee has formulated a Comprehensive Year 2000 Plan (Plan) which follows
guidelines outlined by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council
(FFIEC). The FFIEC requires all banks to develop a plan that includes five
phases relating to awareness, assessment, renovation, validation and
implementation. The Plan establishes a timetable and summarizes each major phase
of the project and the estimated costs to renovate and test systems in
preparation for the Year 2000.
The awareness phase included a Corporate-wide campaign to communicate the
problem and the potential ramifications to the organization. Concurrent with
this phase, the Committee began the assessment phase which included the
inventorying of systems that
<PAGE>

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
may be impacted. The business use of each inventoried item was then analyzed and
prioritized in varying degrees from critical to non-critical, based upon the
perceived adverse effect on the financial condition of the Corporation in the
event of a loss or interruption in the use of each system. The Corporation has
completed the awareness and assessment phases of the project.
The Corporation has outsourced most critical data processing activities to
an industry-known leader who is responsible for modifying its programs to be
compliant with Year 2000 processing. However, oversight of the testing of those
systems is the responsibility of the Committee. Focusing on these critical
systems, the Committee has closely reviewed and monitored the vendor's progress.
Year 2000 compliant upgrades to these outsourced critical data processing
systems were installed in early November 1998. Other critical systems have also
been assessed as to their Year 2000 readiness. These systems have been purchased
from other industry-known vendors and are generally used in their standard
configuration or with minor modifications. The Committee is closely reviewing
and monitoring these systems in addition to reviewing less critical systems as
to each vendor's progress and testing. A test lab is being used and systems are
being tested in a non-production environment. Certification of Year 2000
compliance for these systems has been received from approximately 90% of all
vendors including all those deemed critical. One critical outsourced system, the
human resource/payroll system, that was not Year 2000 compliant, has been
replaced. Integrated testing on all critical applications will continue through
the first quarter of 1999. The review of non-critical systems has begun and is
expected to be completed by June 30, 1999. With the renovation phase nearly
complete, the validation and implementation phases of all systems will continue
and are expected to be completed, for critical systems, by March 31, 1999 and
for all remaining systems by June 30, 1999. A system is deemed validated upon
completion of an appropriate test plan, contingency plan and system testing of
the Year 2000 compliant version without problems.
The Corporation's overall costs associated with Year 2000 implementation
will be reduced due to its outsourcing arrangement previously discussed.
However, incremental direct expenses are estimated to total approximately $500
during the 1998-1999 period. Additionally, capital improvements of approximately
$5,000 will be accelerated, in part due to Year 2000. The capital improvements
include replacing older technology, fully-depreciated personal computers and
software, telecommunication systems and the new human resource/payroll system.
Implementation of this equipment and software will resolve certain Year 2000
issues and will provide increased or improved functionality and efficiencies.
The cost of this equipment and software is expected to be charged to expense
over a 36-60 month period commencing first quarter 1999. The aforementioned
costs include the salary of the full-time project leader but not the time of
management and staff assisting on the project which are estimated to total 6,000
hours from fourth quarter 1998 through 1999. The total cost could vary
significantly from those currently estimated due to unforeseen circumstances
which could develop in implementing the Plan.
Concurrent with the development and execution of the Plan is the evolution
of the Corporation's Year 2000 Contingency Plan (Contingency Plan). The
Contingency Plan addresses a wide variety of issues including: failure of a
system during Year 2000 testing, failure of electrical, telecommunication, or
water systems, failure of a system during the century date change and liquidity
plans. Special considerations have been given to the weekend of the century date
change. The Contingency Plan is intended to be a changing document based on the
ongoing results of the project and is updated on a regular basis.
The Corporation is also completing an assessment of Year 2000 risks
relating to its lines of business separate from its dependence on data
processing. This assessment includes public seminars and a review of larger
commercial customers to ascertain their overall preparedness for Year 2000. The
process requires lending and other bank officers to meet with their customers to
review and assess their overall preparedness. The failure of a commercial
customer to prepare adequately for Year 2000 could have a significant adverse
effect on such customer's operations and profitability and inhibit its ability
to repay loans in accordance with their terms or require the use of its
deposited funds. While the process of evaluating the potential adverse effects
of Year 2000 risks on these customers is substantially complete, it is not
possible to quantify the overall potential effect to the Corporation.
The Plan also includes provisions which address the Year 2000 compliance
of environmental systems, which include items such as elevators, security
systems and heating and air conditioning systems. No significant business risks
have been revealed regarding these types of systems. Additional investigation is
scheduled for first quarter 1999.
The risks associated with the Year 2000 issue can be grouped into two
categories. The first is the risk that the Corporation will not ready its
systems for the century date change. The second is the risk of disruption of the
Corporation's operations due to an operational failure of a third party. The
first category includes those risks that are largely under the Corporation's
control. As stated above, the Corporation has and continues to take significant
steps to correct any Year 2000 related issues. Management believes the risk of
any internal critical system not being Year 2000 ready is low.
The second risk category is largely outside of the Corporation's control.
The Corporation would be most seriously affected if Year 2000 failures of others
caused basic services such as electrical power, telecommunications or government
agencies to be disrupted. Although the preparation of such providers has been
reviewed, there can be no assurance that Year 2000 failures of third parties
will not have a material adverse impact on the Corporation.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and reporting policies of CNB Bancshares, Inc. (the Corporation)
and its subsidiaries conform to generally accepted accounting principles and
reporting practices followed by the banking industry. The more significant
policies are described below.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation
and its subsidiaries after elimination of all material intercompany accounts and
transactions. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with
current classifications.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
LOANS HELD FOR SALE
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or market value.
Gains and losses on loans sold are recorded at the time of sale. Servicing fee
income subsequent to the sale is included in non-interest income. Mortgage
servicing rights associated with loans originated and sold, where servicing is
retained, are capitalized and amortized over the estimated lives of the loans.
The carrying value of such rights is subject to periodic adjustment based upon
changing market conditions.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
Debt securities that the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold
to maturity are classified as held to maturity and reported at amortized cost.
Other investment securities are classified as trading or available for sale and
reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in income or
shareholders' equity, net of related taxes, respectively.
Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are recorded as
adjustments to interest income using the level-yield method over the estimated
remaining period until maturity, adjusted for estimated prepayments. Gains and
losses on the sale of investment securities are determined on the specific
identification method at the time of sale.
LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
Loans are reported net of unearned interest and unamortized deferred fees and
costs. Interest income on loans is accrued on the principal amount of such loans
outstanding, except for leases and discounted installment loans which is
computed using the level-yield method. Certain nonrefundable loan fees and
related direct loan costs are deferred and amortized over the life of the loan
as an adjustment to interest income.
Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when the collection of interest
becomes doubtful. Interest accrued during the current year and deemed
uncollectible is reversed and charged against current income, while
uncollectible interest accrued from prior years is charged against the allowance
for loan losses. Interest income on nonaccrual loans is then recognized only
when collected. A loan remains on nonaccrual status until the loan is current as
to payment of both principal and interest, and/or the borrower demonstrates the
ability to pay and remain current.
Loans are considered impaired when it becomes probable that the Corporation
will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of
the loan agreement. Impaired loans are measured by the present value of expected
future cash flows or the fair value of collateral, if the loan is collateral
dependent. Interest income on these loans is recognized as described above
depending on the accrual status of the loan.
The allowance for loan losses is increased by provisions charged to
expenses and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. It is maintained
at a level considered adequate to absorb potential loan losses determined on the
basis of management's continuing review and evaluation of the loan portfolio and
its judgment as to the impact of economic conditions on the portfolio. The
evaluation by management includes consideration of past loan loss experience and
trends, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, the current volume and
condition of loans outstanding and the probability of collecting all amounts
due.
<PAGE>
CNB BANCSHARES, INC. 43
PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT
Premises and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method based on
estimated useful lives. Gains and losses on dispositions are included in
operations.
FORECLOSED PROPERTIES
Foreclosed properties represent properties acquired through foreclosure or deed
in lieu of foreclosure and are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less
estimated costs to sell. Losses at the time of transfer from loans are charged
to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent adjustments to value and gains or
losses on sales are included in operations. Rental income and costs of
maintaining the properties are also included in operations.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The excess of cost over the fair value of net assets and other intangibles
acquired in acquisitions accounted for as purchases are amortized using the
straight-line method over estimated lives up to 25 years. Such assets are
reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be recoverable.
INTEREST RATE CONTRACTS
The Corporation reduces the potential impact of changing interest rates on its
costs to acquire liabilities that fund certain loans and investments through
interest rate contracts, including interest rate swaps (swaps), interest rate
caps (caps) and covered call option contracts.
The net settlements received or paid on swaps are reported as adjustments
to interest expense of the related liabilities being hedged. Premiums paid for
caps are included in the carrying amounts of those liabilities being hedged.
These amounts are amortized as an adjustment to interest expense of the related
liabilities on a straight-line method over the contractual terms of the caps.
Interest expense is reduced on a current basis as amounts are earned from
counterparties when the index rate exceeds the rate contractually specified in
the cap agreements.
Covered call option contracts provide the option buyer with the right to
sell to, or purchase from, another party some financial instrument at a stated
price on a specified future date. Fees received from the sale of written options
are deferred until the option expires, is terminated, or is exercised, at which
point the fees are included in current operations.
Gains or losses on the termination of interest rate contracts used to hedge
changes in interest rates are included in the carrying amounts of those
liabilities being hedged and are amortized as an adjustment to the yield of the
hedged liability over its remaining life. Gains or losses on the early
termination of a hedged transaction are included in current operations.
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. The Corporation
and its subsidiaries file consolidated income tax returns.
NET INCOME PER SHARE
Basic net income per share has been computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted
net income per share is computed as above, adjusted for the effects of options,
convertible subordinated debentures and the Guaranteed Preferred Beneficial
Interests in the Corporation's Convertible Subordinated Debentures (trust
preferred securities). Diluted net income has been adjusted for the elimination
of interest expense, net of tax, on convertible subordinated debentures and
distributions on the trust preferred securities, net of tax. Average shares have
been increased for the assumed conversion of outstanding options, convertible
subordinated debentures and trust preferred securities into common shares. All
share data included in the consolidated financial statements has been adjusted
for stock dividends.

(DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT FOR SHARE DATA)
STOCK OPTION PLANS
On January 1, 1996, the Corporation adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, which permits
entities to expense the fair value of stock-based awards, as measured on the
date of grant, over their vesting period, or alternatively, provide pro forma
net income and pro forma net income per share disclosures for employee stock
option grants as if the fair-value-based method defined in FASB No. 123 had been
applied. The Corporation has elected to provide the pro forma disclosure
provisions of FASB No. 123.
TRUST ASSETS
Assets held by the Corporation's subsidiaries in fiduciary or agency capacity
for customers are not included in the Consolidated Financial Statements as such
items are not assets of the Corporation or its subsidiaries.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
The FASB has issued Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities, which provides a comprehensive and consistent standard for
the recognition and measurement of derivatives and hedging activities. The
Corporation has not yet determined the financial impact to its financial
condition or results of operations but plans to adopt FASB No. 133 on January 1,
2000.
2. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

As discussed above, the Corporation acquired Pinnacle on April 17, 1998.
The acquisition was accounted for as a pooling of interests. Separate operating
results of the Corporation and Pinnacle for the periods prior to the merger were
as follows:

The Corporation recorded merger and related charges of $41,346 ($30,214 net
of tax) in the second quarter of 1998 in connection with the Pinnacle merger.
The charges included accounting conformity adjustments of $4,012 and $252 to net
interest income and non-interest income, respectively, and $37,082 of
non-interest expenses related to the merger and conversion of Pinnacle to the
Corporation's data processing systems and other accounting conformity
adjustments. The non-interest expenses were comprised of $10,501 in severance
<PAGE>

payments, $7,036 in data processing equipment and conversion expenses, $1,781 in
occupancy expense associated with office closures, $8,153 in associated
professional fees and $9,611 in other costs and accounting conformity
adjustments.
Direct merger expenses, write-downs of equipment and software to fair value
and conformity adjustments totaled $29,994. Reserves of $11,352 were established
for anticipated payments related to employment and contract terminations,
conversion costs and to resolve reconciling items generated through Pinnacle's
1997 data processing conversions. The data processing conversion to the
Corporation's systems was completed during the second quarter of 1998 and most
terminations were completed by September 30, 1998. Of the $11,352 in reserves
established in the second quarter of 1998, $2,574 remained at December 31, 1998,
as certain associates elected to receive severance payments over an extended
term. No further adjustment to the Corporation's results of operations is
expected and future payments will not have a significant effect on the
Corporation's liquidity or capital resources.
On January 1, 1998, the Corporation issued 115,290 shares of common stock
for the acquisition of Wedgewood Partners, Inc., a full service broker/dealer
and asset management firm based in St. Louis, Missouri. Goodwill of $2,345 is
being amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years. The acquisition was
accounted for under the purchase method of accounting; and, accordingly, the
consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities and results
of operations from the January 1, 1998, transaction date forward.
On May 31, 1996, the Corporation acquired $11,785 of loans from 12 offices
of Money One Credit Company, acquired a portion of the customer base from
Evansville Insurance Group and purchased Small Parker & Blossom, Inc., a third
party administrator of employee benefit plans. Goodwill resulting from these
acquisitions totaled $6,375 and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over
periods not exceeding 15 years. These acquisitions were accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting; and, accordingly, the consolidated financial
statements include the assets and liabilities and results of operations from the
May 31, 1996, transaction date forward.
On December 31, 1998, the Corporation combined the charters of its eight
subsidiary banks into one Michigan state bank charter under the name of Citizens
Bank of MidAmerica.

4. LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
Through its subsidiaries, the Corporation originates commercial, mortgage and
consumer loans from customers located in its primary market areas of Indiana,
Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan and portions of Tennessee. Collateral, if deemed
necessary, is based on management's credit evaluation and may include business
assets of commercial borrowers as well as personal property and real estate of
individual borrowers or guarantors. The Corporation's loan portfolio is
diversified with no major concentration related to any one industry.

Impaired loans totaled $39,823 and $42,097 at December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Included in the impaired loans total as of the same respective
year-end dates were $13,868 and $26,035 of impaired loans for which the related
specific allowance for loan losses were $2,506 and $5,159. The remaining $25,955
and $16,062 of impaired loans at year-end 1998 and 1997, respectively, did not
require specific reserves. Impaired loans averaged $38,932 and $32,955 for 1998
and 1997, respectively. The Corporation recognized $1,554, $1,345 and $866 of
interest income on impaired loans in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
Loans on which the accrual of interest was discontinued or reduced amounted
to $34,964 at December 31, 1998, and $27,974 at December 31, 1997. Additional
interest income of approximately $3,223 for 1998, $2,615 for 1997, and $2,799

principal payments without penalty.
Qualifying, unencumbered mortgage assets up to 160% of the aggregate amount
of advances and Federal Home Loan Bank stock have been pledged as collateral for
the Federal Home Loan Bank advances.
At December 31, 1998, the Corporation's subsidiary bank had $174,630
available from unused federal funds purchased agreements and in excess of
$460,143 of available borrowing capacity from the Federal Home Loan Bank. In
addition, the Corporation has an unsecured line of credit available which
permits it to borrow up to $50,000 at variable rates adjusted with changes in
LIBOR through June 30, 1999. At December 31, 1998, the entire $50,000 of the
line of credit remained available for future use.
9. GUARANTEED PREFERRED BENEFICIAL INTERESTS IN THE CORPORATION'S CONVERTIBLE
SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES
In June 1998, the Corporation issued $172,500 of trust preferred securities
through CNB Capital Trust I, a Delaware statutory business trust created and
wholly owned by the Corporation. The trust preferred securities have a
liquidation amount of $25 per share with a cumulative annual distribution rate
of 6.0%, or $.375 per share, payable quarterly, and mature on June 30, 2028. The
trust preferred securities are convertible at any time at the conversion ratio
of .4835 shares of common stock of the Corporation for each trust preferred
security (equivalent to a conversion price of $51.71), subject to certain
adjustments.
The sole assets of CNB Capital Trust I are $177,835 of convertible
subordinated debentures of the Corporation with the interest rate, maturity date
and conversion rate substantially identical to those of the trust preferred
securities. The back-up obligations of the Corporation with respect to the trust
preferred securities constitute, in the aggregate, a full and unconditional
guarantee by the Corporation of the obligations of CNB Capital Trust I under the
trust preferred securities.
The Corporation may redeem the convertible subordinated debentures and
thereby cause a redemption of the trust preferred securities in whole (or in
part from time to time) on or after June 23, 2001, or in whole (but not in part)
within 90 days following the occurrence and continuance of certain adverse
federal income tax or capital treatment events.
Costs associated with the issuance of the trust preferred securities
totaling $4,847 were capitalized and are being amortized through the maturity
date of the securities. The unamortized balance is included in other assets on
the Corporation's Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The Corporation records distributions payable on the trust preferred
securities similar to a minority interest distribution, net of tax, in its
Consolidated Statement of Income.
10. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
The Corporation is authorized to issue 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock, no
par value, which remain unissued. In the event any preferred shares are issued,
specific voting powers, dividend preferences and other rights and restrictions
of the preferred stock will be designated by the Board of Directors.
Shareholders' equity has been adjusted to record the one-for-twenty stock
dividends declared on September 10, 1996, August 11, 1997, and August 18, 1998.
All share data has been adjusted to reflect the stock dividends.

The Corporation offers a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the
Plan), which provides shareholders of the Corporation a convenient method of
purchasing additional shares of common stock. The Plan provides for shares to be
purchased in the market or to be issued by the Corporation. Pursuant to the
Plan, 123,216 and 60,098 shares were purchased in the market for 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Shares issued under the Plan totaled 51,431 and 145,522 for 1997
and 1996, respectively. At December 31, 1998, there were 518,630 shares of
common stock reserved for issuance under the Plan.
The Corporation called its convertible subordinated debentures effective
October 3, 1997. The Corporation issued 369,124 shares in 1997 and 37,171 shares
in 1996 in connection with the conversion of these debentures.
Cancelable mandatory stock purchase contracts were called effective August
15, 1996. The Corporation issued 159,170 shares in 1996 in connection with the
exercise of these stock purchase contracts.
The Corporation issued $172,500 of convertible trust preferred securities
in June 1998, as described in Note 9. At December 31, 1998, there were 3,336,150
shares of common stock reserved for issuance in connection with these
securities.
The Corporation has Incentive Stock Option Plans (Plans), whereby up to
1,768,000 shares of common stock can be granted to directors, officers or
employees of the Corporation or its subsidiaries. Under terms of the Plans,
options may be granted to purchase the Corporation's common stock at a price not
less than the fair market value of the common stock at the date of the grant,
for a period of up to 10 years after a six month or greater vesting period.
Options granted pursuant to the Plans generally qualify as incentive stock
options; however, certain conditions may be waived which would result in the
options being treated as non-qualified stock options. Unless earlier terminated
by the Board of Directors, the Plans will terminate on March 20, 2005. At
December 31, 1998, 60,136 shares were available for the granting of additional
options.
The fair value of option grants, excluding options from Pinnacle, was
estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with
the following weighted average assumptions:

No valuation allowance was required for the years reported due to
management's belief that it is more likely than not that future operations will
generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets.
The base year reserves of certain thrift institutions acquired by the
Corporation would be recaptured if the bank subsidiary of the Corporation ceases
to qualify as a "bank" for federal income tax purposes. The base year reserves
of thrift institutions also remain subject to income tax provisions which, in
general, require recapture upon certain stock redemptions of shareholders and
excess distributions to shareholders. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, retained
earnings included approximately $8,800 of base year reserves for which no
deferred income tax liability had been recognized.
15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Corporation is committed under various operating leases for premises and
equipment. Future minimum rentals for lease commitments having initial or
remaining non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year totaled approximately
$12,281 at December 31, 1998. Rental expense for operating leases totaled
$3,613, $3,395 and $2,770 in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
In the normal course of business there are outstanding commitments and
contingent liabilities, such as commitments to extend credit and standby letters
of credit, which are not included in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements. The Corporation's exposure to credit loss in the event of
nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments
to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual
or notional amount of those instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit
policies in making such commitments as it does for instruments that are included
in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
At December 31, those financial instruments whose contract amount
represents credit and/or interest rate risk are summarized in the following
table:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
1998 1997
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<S> <C> <C>
Commitments to extend credit $ 814,143 $ 622,079
Standby letters of credit 120,195 78,695
</TABLE>
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long
as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.
Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses
and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to
expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements. The Corporation evaluates each customer's
credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if
deemed necessary by the Corporation upon extension of credit, is based on
management's credit evaluation. Collateral held may include accounts receivable,
inventory, real property, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial
properties.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the
Corporation to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party.
The Corporation and its subsidiaries are also subject to claims and
lawsuits which arise primarily in the ordinary course of business. Based on
information presently available and advice received from legal counsel
representing the Corporation in connection with such claims and lawsuits, it is
the opinion of management that the disposition or ultimate determination of such
claims and lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated
financial position of the Corporation.
The Corporation has change of control agreements with certain employees
which provide for specified benefits under certain conditions. The contingent
liability under these agreements in the event of a change in control is
approximately $8,664.
The Corporation has entered into an agreement with a third party to provide
the Corporation with certain services, including software, specified computer
equipment and the overall management and operations of its data processing
through June 2003. The agreement provides for minimum annual payments as
follows: 1999 - $4,607; 2000 - $4,519; 2001 - $4,519; 2002 - $4,519; and 2003 -
$2,259.
16. INTEREST RATE CONTRACTS
The Corporation has entered into interest rate contracts as a hedge against the
interest costs of certain deposits, repurchase agreements and long-term
borrowings to manage its interest rate sensitivity. Interest rate swaps (swaps)
represent an exchange of interest payments and the underlying principal balances
of the liabilities are not affected. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the
Corporation had swaps with notional values of $440,000 and $55,000 which
terminate on or prior to April 7, 2005. The swaps require the Corporation to pay
a fixed rate of interest ranging from 5.32% to 5.60% and receive a variable rate
based on one-month or three-month LIBOR. At December 31,
<PAGE>
56 CNB BANCSHARES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT FOR SHARE DATA)
1997, the Corporation had entered into interest rate cap agreements (caps), with
a notional value of $390,000, to reduce the impact of increased interest rates
on its costs to acquire certain deposits and repurchase agreements. These caps
were terminated and replaced with swaps during 1998. The Corporation's interest
rate contracts had carrying values of $367 and $2,095 at December 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively. The related fair values of the contracts were ($14,182) and
$950 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The negative fair value
represents the estimated amount the Corporation would have to pay at December
31, 1998, to cancel the contracts or transfer them to other parties.
The Corporation is exposed to losses if a counterparty fails to make its
payments under a contract in which the Corporation is in a receiving status.
Although collateral or other security is not obtained, the Corporation minimizes
its credit risk by monitoring the credit standing of the counterparties and
anticipates that the counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their
obligation under the agreements.
17. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation has loan, deposit and other
transactions with executive officers, directors and principal shareholders, and
with organizations and individuals with which they are financially or otherwise
closely associated. All of the transactions were entered into on substantially
the same terms as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with
other parties. These loans do not involve more than normal risk of collection or
present other unfavorable features. As defined, total loans to executive
officers, directors and principal shareholders were as follows:
<TABLE>

<S> <C>
Balance at January 1, 1998 $ 63,316
New loans, including renewals 8,856
Director and officer changes (39,055)
Payments, including renewals (14,422)

Balance at December 31, 1998 $ 18,695

</TABLE>
18. REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS AND CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The principal source of income and funds for the Corporation (Parent Company) is
dividends from its banking subsidiary (Bank). During 1999, the amount of
dividends that the Bank can pay to the Parent Company is limited to the total of
its retained earnings of $301,248 (the amount available at December 31, 1998).
As a practical matter, the Bank may restrict dividends to a lesser amount
because of the need to maintain adequate capital levels.
The Bank is required to maintain a non-interest bearing cash reserve
balance which is dependent on the amounts and types of deposits it holds. The
reserve required at December 31, 1998, was $23,129.
The Corporation and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital
requirements administered by state and federal banking agencies. Failure to meet
minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly
additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have
a direct material effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.
Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective action, the Corporation and the Bank must meet specific capital
guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their respective assets,
liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory
accounting practices. The Corporation's and the Bank's capital amounts and
classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about
components, risk weightings and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Corporation and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set
forth in the following table) of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted
assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. Management believes, that as of
December 31, 1998, the Corporation and the Bank met all capital adequacy
requirements to which they were subject.
As of December 31, 1998, the most recent notification from regulatory
agencies categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework
for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank
must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage
ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events
since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank's
categories.

19. SEGMENT INFORMATION
As previously discussed in Note 2, the Corporation combined its eight subsidiary
banks into one charter effective December 31, 1998. Prior to that combination,
management used loan and deposit average balances, net income and related growth
rates and financial ratios to measure performance of each subsidiary bank. The
following table shows the financial information of the Corporation's reportable
divisions (formerly subsidiary banks) for 1998, 1997 and 1996:

The "Other" column includes the Parent Company, all subsidiaries not
required to be disclosed separately and all intercompany elimination entries.
The merger and related charges column for 1998 relates to the merger of
Pinnacle into the Corporation; and, accordingly, most charges would be allocated
to the Northern Indiana/Michigan Division, but to show meaningful comparisons,
they are displayed separately. The 1997 charges are the result of mergers
Pinnacle consummated prior to its merger with the Corporation and would also be
allocated to the Northern Indiana/Michigan Division, but are shown separately to
allow meaningful comparisons. The adjustment in 1996 relates to the special
assessment required of all financial institutions with deposits insured by the
Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF). The assessment would be allocated,
net of tax, as follows: Evansville - $569; Northern Indiana/Michigan - $3,600;
Central Indiana - $198; Kentucky - $508; Illinois - $587 and divisions included
in "Other" - $1,183.
The financial ratios exclude all of the above merger and one-time charges
to allow meaningful comparisons. Capital expenditures, amortization and
depreciation are not separately disclosed as they were immaterial.

20. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The estimated fair values of the Corporation's financial instruments are
provided in the following table. A financial instrument is defined as cash,
evidence of an ownership interest in an entity, or a contract that imposes on
one entity a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial
instrument to a second entity or, conveys to a second entity a contractual right
to receive cash or another financial instrument from the first entity. All of
the Corporation's assets and liabilities are not financial instruments, as
defined, and are therefore not included in the table.
The estimated fair values of the Corporation's financial instruments at
December 31 were as follows:
<TABLE>

Interest receivable 49,475 49,475 46,078 46,078
Financial liabilities:

Short-term borrowings (803,968) (803,968) (682,155) (682,155)
Interest rate contracts 367 2,095 989
Long-term debt (626,759) (627,156) (726,658) (717,200)
Interest payable (25,187) (25,187) (25,477) (25,477)
Guaranteed preferred beneficial interests in the
Corporation's convertible subordinated debentures (172,500) (193,631)
Off-balance sheet financial assets (liabilities):
Commitments to extend credit 4,647 2,799
Interest rate swaps (14,182) (39)
</TABLE>
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents are reasonable estimates
of their fair values. The fair values of investment securities and guaranteed
preferred beneficial interests in the Corporation's convertible subordinated
debentures were based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes where available.
The fair values of interest-bearing deposits with financial institutions and
investment securities, where market values or dealer quotes were not available,
and loans were calculated by discounting expected cash flows to average
maturities. The discount rate was adjusted to allow for varying repricing
opportunities, credit risks and carrying costs, as deemed appropriate by
management. The fair values of demand deposits, savings accounts, money market
deposits and short-term borrowings are the carrying amounts which were payable
on December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Fair values of interest rate
contracts, including interest rate swaps, were based on dealer quotes. The fair
values of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit and long-term debt were
estimated using current interest rates for similar remaining maturities.
Commitments to make loans and standby letters of credit are not recorded on the
Consolidated Balance Sheet. The fair values of commitments to extend credit are
based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements with similar
maturities and interest rates.
Because no active market exists for a significant portion of the
Corporation's financial instruments, fair value estimates were based on
judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic
conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other such
factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and
matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with
precision.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors, CNB Bancshares, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of CNB Bancshares,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related
consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash
flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1998.
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CNB
Bancshares, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the
three-year period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

MANAGEMENT'S STATEMENT ON FINANCIAL REPORTING
The consolidated financial statements of CNB Bancshares, Inc. were prepared by

financial information included in this report is consistent with that in the
financial statements.
In meeting its responsibility, management has established and maintains
systems of internal control which are designed to provide reasonable assurance
that assets are safeguarded and that the financial records reflect the
authorized transactions of the Corporation and that its policies and procedures
are followed. These systems are augmented by the careful selection and training
of qualified personnel and a continuous program of internal audits.
KPMG LLP, independent auditors, were engaged to audit the consolidated
financial statements of CNB Bancshares, Inc. and to express an opinion thereon.
The audit was conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards

such tests and related procedures as they deemed necessary to express an opinion
on the fairness of the consolidated financial statements.
The Board of Directors pursues its responsibility for the Corporation's
financial statements through its Audit Committee. The Audit Committee, comprised
solely of directors who are not officers or employees of the Corporation, is
responsible for monitoring the accounting, auditing and financial reporting
practices of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. The Committee recommends to
the Board of Directors the appointment of the independent auditors and meets
