MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Results of Operations - Quarters Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1996 amounted to $2,320,527,
up 14.2% over the $2,032,821 of net income recorded in the third quarter of
1995. Earnings per share for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 amounted to
$.51, up from the $.46 per share on net income earned in the comparable 1995
period. All share and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect a 3-for-2
stock split effected on October 15, 1996.
Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 1996 increased by
6.4% over the prior year quarter, to $6.8 million. This increase was primarily
attributable to higher interest income from securities, which was partially
offset by an increase in interest paid on borrowings. (See additional discussion
under the caption "Net Interest Income".)
The provision for loan losses amounted to $300,000 for the third quarter of
1996, up from $275,000 recorded in the third quarter of 1995.
Other noninterest income (noninterest income excluding gains on sales of
securities and gains (losses) on loan sales) amounted to $2.1 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1996, up 12.6% from the same 1995 period. This
increase is primarily due to higher revenues for trust services as well as an
increase in service charges earned on deposit accounts.
For the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, securities gains
amounted to $117,689 and $111,198, respectively. Gains on loan sales in the
third quarter of 1996 amounted to $65,693, compared to losses on sales of loans
of $193,143 in the third quarter of 1995. The 1995 amount included a loss of
approximately $200,000 resulting from the sale of a pool of loans, most of which
were nonperforming.
Total noninterest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 amounted to
$5.3 million, an increase of 10.0% from the comparable 1995 amount. This
increase was largely attributable to higher salaries and benefits expense
resulting from increased staffing levels and normal salary adjustments. In
addition, equipment costs were higher due to depreciation expense associated
with purchases that occurred in 1995 and in the first half of 1996.
Results of Operations - Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 amounted to $6,356,500,
13.1% higher than the $5,622,060 of net income recorded in the comparable 1995
period. Fully diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30,
1996 amounted to $1.42, up 10.9% over the $1.28 per share earned in the
comparable 1995 period.
The increase in net income in 1996 is due to increases in net interest income
and noninterest income totaling $1,703,865, which were partially offset by an
increase in the provision for loan losses of $175,000 and an increase in
noninterest expense of $574,425.
Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 increased by
4.1% over the same prior year period. This increase was primarily attributable
to higher dividend and interest income from securities, which was partially
offset by an increase in interest paid on time deposits and borrowings. (See
additional discussion under the caption "Net Interest Income".)
Other noninterest income amounted to $5.8 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996, up by 13.1% from the comparable 1995 amount of $5.1 million.
This increase is primarily due to higher revenues for trust services as well as
an increase in service charges earned on deposit accounts.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, securities gains amounted
to $266,026 and $280,408, respectively. Gains on loan sales for the 1996
year-to-date period amounted to $140,734, compared to losses on sales of loans
of $145,068 for the same 1995 period. The 1995 amount includes a loss of
approximately $200,000 resulting from the sale of a pool of loans, most of which
were nonperforming.
Total noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 amounted
to $15.2 million, up 3.9% from the 1995 amount of $14.6 million. Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation premiums for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 were
reduced by approximately $467,000 from the comparable 1995 amount due to a
reduction in rates paid by banks for deposit insurance premiums. This savings
was offset by increases in salaries and benefits and equipment expense. Salaries
and benefits were up due to increased staffing levels and normal salary
adjustments, while equipment costs were higher due to depreciation expense
associated with purchases that occurred in 1995 and in the first half of 1996.

<TABLE>
Average Balances/Net Interest Margin - Fully Taxable Equivalent Basis (FTE)
The following table presents average balance and interest rate information. Tax
exempt income is converted to a FTE basis by assuming the applicable federal
income tax rate adjusted for applicable state income taxes net of the related
federal tax benefit. For dividends on corporate stocks, the 70% federal
dividends received deduction is also used in the calculation of tax equivalency.
Nonaccrual and renegotiated loans, as well as interest earned on these loans (to
the extent recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income), are included in
amounts presented for loans.

Net Interest Income
(The accompanying schedule on the previous page should be read in conjunction
with this discussion.)
FTE net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 amounted to
$20.5 million, up by approximately $1.1 million, or 5.8%, over the same 1995
period. The growth in interest-earning assets, as well as an increase in the
overall rate earned on those assets, were responsible for the improvement in net
interest income. The interest rate spread and the net interest margin for the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 amounted to 4.50% and 5.15%, respectively.
Comparable amounts for 1995 were 4.63% and 5.21%, respectively.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, average interest-earning assets
amounted to $530.0 million, an increase of $34.8 million, or 7.0%, over the
comparable 1995 amount. The FTE rate of return on average interest-earning
assets was 8.67% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, up from 8.60% for
the same 1995 period. The growth in average interest-earning assets was due to
the increase in average taxable securities, which were up by $37.1 million, or
48.1%, from the 1995 amount. The increase in average taxable securities resulted
primarily from an investment leverage program which was implemented in the
second quarter of 1996. The objective of the program is to increase net interest
income and improve returns on equity, while incurring limited interest rate
risk. Approximately $50 million of adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities
were purchased under this program and funded with Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB)
advances with similar interest rate repricing characteristics.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the FTE yield on taxable
securities rose by 46 basis points over the prior year, to 7.54%, as a result of
a change in the mix of securities. During this same period, average U.S.
Treasury obligations comprised 37% of total average taxable securities, down
from 59% for the comparable 1995 period, due largely to the purchase of
higher-yielding mortgage-backed securities under the investment leverage
program. The additional growth in mortgage-backed securities and corporate
stocks resulted from maturing short-term investments and liquidity generated
from deposit growth. (See notes 2 and 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements
for more information on the composition of securities.)
The overall yield on average total loans amounted to 9.12% for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996, up from 9.05% in the comparable 1995 period due to a
change in the mix of loans. The average balance of installment loans, the
highest yielding loan category, rose by $8.5 million, while the average balance
of residential real estate and commercial loans declined by $2.1 million and
$5.2 million, respectively. Another factor in the increase in the overall yield
on average total loans was the increase in the yield on commercial loans, which
rose 33 basis points to 9.85%. Lower levels of nonaccrual commercial loans
contributed to this yield improvement. In addition, most commercial loans
reprice periodically based upon the prime rate, which was 8.25% at September 30,
1996 versus 8.75% a year earlier; however, this decline in the prime rate was
partially offset by payments received under interest rate floor contracts. The
interest earned on these contracts, net of floor contract premium amortization,
increased interest earned on commercial loans by approximately $134,000, or 11
basis points, for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The yields on
residential real estate and installment loans decreased by 8 basis points and 37
basis points, respectively, from the prior year to date period.
The Corporation's total cost of funds on interest-bearing liabilities amounted
to 4.17% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, up from 3.97% for the
comparable 1995 period. This increase was due to increases in the volume of
average time deposits and the rate paid on these deposits, as well as higher
average FHLB advances outstanding. These factors offset the benefit of an
increase in average demand deposits, an interest-free source of funding. Average
demand deposits for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 were up by $7.8
million, or 14.6%, from the same prior year period. Average time deposits rose
4.3% from the prior year amount, to $231.5 million. The rate paid on time
deposits was 5.35% for the first nine months of 1996, up from 5.18% for the same
1995 period. While average savings deposits for the nine months ended September
30, 1996 declined by 2.2% from the comparable 1995 amount, the rate paid on
these deposits remained unchanged from the prior year period at 2.20%.
Average FHLB advances for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 amounted to
$38.6 million, up by 77.3% from the $21.8 million average balance for the same
1995 period. The additional advances were used primarily to purchase securities
under the investment leverage program implemented in the second quarter of 1996.
The average rate paid on FHLB advances for the nine months ended September 30,
1996 was 5.94%, a decrease of 21 basis points from the prior year rate.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
Total assets amounted to $623.4 million at September 30, 1996, an increase of
$75.8 million from the December 31, 1995 amount of $547.7 million. Average
assets totaled $567.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, up
by 6.6% over the comparable 1995 period.
Securities Available for Sale - The amortized cost of securities available for
sale at September 30, 1996 amounted to $138.4 million, an increase of $60.1
million over the December 31, 1995 amount of $78.2 million. Approximately $50.0
million of this increase is attributable to adjustable rate pass-through
securities and collateralized mortgage obligations issued by U.S.
government-sponsored agencies which were purchased under the investment leverage
program which began in the second quarter of 1996. (See Net Interest Income for
additional discussion of the investment leverage program).
The net unrealized gain on securities available for sale decreased in the nine
months ended September 30, 1996 by approximately $660,000. This decline is
attributable to the decline in the market value of debt securities resulting
from the rise in medium-term and long-term Treasury rates that has occurred
since December 31, 1995.
Securities Held to Maturity - The carrying value of securities held to maturity
amounted to $28.3 million at September 30, 1996, down from $28.9 million at
December 31, 1995. The net unrealized gain on securities held to maturity
amounted to approximately $38,000 and $560,000 at September 30, 1996 and
December 31, 1995, respectively, representing a reduction of $522,000 during
this nine-month period. This decline was attributable to the rise in medium-term
and long-term Treasury rates occurring since December 31, 1995.
Loans - Total loans amounted to $406.9 million at September 30, 1996, an
increase of $20.4 million, or 5.3%, from the December 31, 1995 balance of $386.5
million. All categories of loans exhibited increases over the year-end 1995
amounts. The strong growth in installment loans experienced during 1995 has
continued in 1996. As of September 30, 1996, installment loans were up by 10.0%
over the December 31, 1995 balance. Demand for commercial loans has improved
after being relatively soft during 1995, with the largest increase occurring in
the commercial mortgage portfolio. Residential mortgages increased by $4.1
million from the December 31, 1995 balance due to a decision by the Corporation
to retain 15-year fixed rate mortgages in its portfolio of loans. The
Corporation continues to sell substantially all 30-year fixed rate residential
mortgage originations, and has retained servicing rights on all residential
mortgage loans sold.
Deposits and Other Borrowings - Total deposits amounted to $471.0 million at
September 30, 1996, up by $3.1 million from the December 31, 1995 amount of
$467.9 million. Savings and time deposits decreased by 1.1% from the December
31, 1995 balance. Demand deposits increased by 12.6% from the year-end 1995
amount due to the normal seasonal deposit inflow.
The Corporation utilizes FHLB advances as a funding source. FHLB advances
amounted to $78.7 million at September 30, 1996, up by $57.7 million from the
December 31, 1995 amount. In addition, short-term borrowings outstanding at
September 30, 1996 amounted to $10.2 million. The additional FHLB advances and
short-term borrowings were used to fund loan growth and to purchase securities
under the investment leverage program implemented in the second quarter of 1996.
The Corporation is required to maintain a level of investment in FHLB stock
which is based on the level of its FHLB advances. As a result of the increase in
the FHLB advances during 1996, the Corporation has increased its investment in
FHLB stock from $2,995,000 at December 31, 1995 to $7,185,900 at September 30,
1996.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, net cash provided by operations
amounted to $7.9 million, the majority of which was generated by net income.
Proceeds from sales of loans in the first nine months of 1996 amounted to $12.3
million, while loans originated for sale amounted to $11.9 million. Net cash
used in investing activities amounted to $87.1 million and was primarily used to
purchase securities available for sale and for loan originations. Net cash used
in investing activities also included $3.2 million used to purchase premises and
equipment. The funding for cash used in investing activities was generated by
utilizing cash and cash equivalents, by a net increase in FHLB advances of $57.7
million, and by an increase in short-term borrowings of $10.2 million. (See
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for additional information.)
During 1996, the Corporation has announced plans to expand its market area into
contiguous communities. The Corporation will open a new 5,900 square foot branch
office later this year in North Kingstown, Rhode Island. The branch will be a
full service banking office, offering deposit and loan services for businesses
and consumers, as well as trust and investment services. Plans were also
announced to install branches in two supermarkets in early 1997. The branches
will offer a complete range of financial products and services. The Corporation
has also entered into an agreement to acquire a branch office of a Connecticut
bank and its deposits of approximately $10 million. The transaction is expected
to become effective during the first quarter of 1997.

Not included in the analysis of nonperforming assets at September 30, 1996 and
December 31, 1995 above are approximately $1.7 million and $257,000,
respectively, of loans greater than 90 days past due and still accruing. These
loans consist primarily of residential mortgages which are considered
well-collateralized and in the process of collection and therefore are deemed to
have no loss exposure. In addition, at September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995,
there were approximately $47,000 and $28,000, respectively, of credit card loans
which were 90 days or more past due and still accruing. The average balance and
corresponding percentage of net charge-offs on credit card loans for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996 amounted to $3,755,000 and 2.4%, respectively.
This compares to an average balance and percentage of net charge-offs of
$3,609,000 and 1.1%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 1995.

Impaired loans consist of all nonaccrual commercial loans. At September 30,
1996, the recorded investment in impaired loans was $3,400,000, including
$1,902,000 which had a related allowance amounting to $343,000. At December 31,
1995, the recorded investment in impaired loans was $5,855,000, including
$4,854,000 which had a related allowance amounting to $953,000. The balance of
impaired loans which did not require an allowance at September 30, 1996 and
December 31, 1995 was $1,498,000 and $1,001,000, respectively. During the nine
months ended September 30, 1996, the average recorded investment in impaired
loans was $4,952,000. Also during this period, interest income recognized on
impaired loans amounted to approximately $204,000. Interest income on impaired

Capital Resources
Total equity capital amounted to $57.3 million, or 9.2% of total assets at
September 30, 1996. This compares to $52.9 million, or 9.7% at December 31,
1995. Total equity increased by $4.3 million from December 31, 1995, $4.1
million of which is attributable to earnings retention.
The Corporation's total risk-adjusted capital ratio amounted to 15.48% at
September 30, 1996. Banks are required to maintain a minimum capital to
risk-adjusted asset ratio of 8%. The Corporation's leverage ratio amounted to
8.90% at September 30, 1996, well above the regulatory requirement of 3% for
banking organizations with strong earnings, liquidity and asset quality who do
not anticipate significant growth and who have well-diversified risk.
Dividends payable at September 30, 1996 amounted to $784,444, representing $.18
per share payable on October 15, 1996, an increase of 12.5% over the $.16 per
share declared in the third quarter of 1995. These per share amounts have been
adjusted to reflect the 3-for-2 stock split paid in the form of a stock dividend
on October 15, 1996 to shareholders of record on October 1, 1996.
The source of funds for dividends paid by the Corporation is dividends received
from its subsidiary bank. The subsidiary bank is a regulated enterprise, and as
such its ability to pay dividends to the parent is subject to regulatory review
and restriction.
In June 1996, the Corporation's Board of Directors approved a program to
repurchase up to 87,000 (split-adjusted) or approximately 2% of its outstanding
common shares. The Corporation plans to hold the repurchased shares as treasury
stock to be used for general corporate purposes. During the third quarter of
1996, shares were repurchased under this program at a total cost of $240,500.

On August 23, 1996, a Form 8-K was filed which reported that the
Corporation's Board of Directors declared a dividend of one common
share purchase right (a "Right") for each share of common stock, par
value $.0625 per share (the "Common Shares") outstanding on September
3, 1996 to the shareholders of record on that date.
On September 19, 1996, a Form 8-K was filed which reported that the
