ITEM 1 - BUSINESS

NBC Capital Corporation

     NBC Capital Corporation (the Company) is a multi-bank
holding company which was organized under the laws of the State
of Mississippi in 1984 and was reorganized in 1987 under the laws
of the State of Delaware.  On July 2, 1984, the Company acquired
all of the outstanding common stock of the National Bank of
Commerce of Mississippi (NBC), a national banking corporation. 
On January 1, 1994, the Company acquired 99.2% of the outstanding
common stock of First State Bank of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, a state
chartered bank.  For the year ended December 31, 1995, these
financial institutions and their subsidiaries accounted for 100%
of the Company's consolidated income and approximately 99% of its
consolidated expenses.

National Bank of Commerce of Mississippi

     NBC was originally formed through a series of mergers which
began in 1972 and concluded on October 1, 1974.  In March, 1991,
NBC acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities of the Bank
of Philadelphia, a $75 million institution.  NBC operates under
the original Federal Charter granted to the First National Bank
of Monroe County in 1887.

     NBC is the largest commercial bank domiciled in the eastern
area of the state known as the Golden Triangle.  A total of 25
banking facilities and an operations center serve the communities
of Aberdeen, Amory, Artesia, Brooksville, Columbus, Hamilton,
Maben, Philadelphia and Starkville.  This area extends into five
Mississippi counties with a radius of approximately 65 miles from
the home office in Starkville.

     During 1995 and 1994, NBC engaged in the general banking
business and activities closely related to banking as authorized
by the banking laws and regulations of the United States.  There
were no significant changes in the business activities of NBC
during these years.

     NBC provides a complete line of wholesale and retail
services including mortgage loans and trust.  The customer base
is well diversified and consists of business, industry,
agriculture, government, education and individual accounts. 
Profitability and growth have been consistent throughout the
history of the bank.

     NBC utilizes a written Asset/Liability Management Policy
which calls for maintaining the 24 month GAP within a tolerance
of + 5% - 10% of total assets.  The financial plan calls for a
return on assets of 1.3% and a minimum return on equity of 10%.

     NBC is operated in a conservative fashion while meeting the
needs of the community.  There has been no disposition of any
material amounts of assets nor has there been a material change
in the mode of conducting business.  No major changes in
operation are provided for the near future.


First State Bank of Tuscaloosa

     First State Bank of Tuscaloosa (FSB) was organized in 1968
and is a state bank and operates under the requirements of the
laws of the State of Alabama.

     FSB is located in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, a city with a
population of approximately 75,000 people.  FSB was acquired by
the Company on January 1, 1994.  Management of the Company is of
the opinion that this acquisition provides for new opportunities
for growth and expansion.  Tuscaloosa, Alabama, is a city that
expects future economic development.  As an example, Mercedes is
building an automotive plant in the Tuscaloosa area.  Management
of the Company believes the acquisition of FSB places the Company
in a position to participate in the economic development.

     FSB competes with many other financial institutions in the
Tuscaloosa area, most of which are larger. FSB had total assets
of $78 million at December 31, 1995, and reported net income of
$616 thousand for the year ended December 31, 1995.  The bank's
history has been one of moderate growth and average earnings when
compared to its peer group.

     FSB is engaged in the general banking business and
activities closely related to banking as authorized by the
banking laws and regulations of its banking regulators, the State
of Alabama and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

     FSB provides a complete line of wholesale and retail
services, including mortgage loans.  The customer base consists
principally of business, industry and individual accounts.

     The Company operates FSB in a conservative fashion while
meeting the needs of the community.  

     FSB has adopted the asset/liability management policy of
NBC.  The financial plan calls for a return on assets of 1% and a
minimum return on equity (net of goodwill) of 10%.

NBC Service Corporation

     NBC Service Corporation (Service) is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of NBC and was formed to provide additional financial
services that otherwise might not be provided by NBC.  For the
years 1995 and 1994, its primary activity was limited to its
investment in Commerce National Insurance Company (CNI) of which
Service owns 79%.  Commerce National Insurance Company is a
credit life insurance company whose primary source of income is
from premiums on credit life insurance on loans issued by NBC.  

Philadelphia Finance Corporation

     Philadelphia Finance Corporation (Finance), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of NBC, is a finance company that provides lending and
financing services to consumers.  It engages in consumer
financing, and its loans are of a smaller amount and a higher
interest rate than that of NBC.  Finance has one office located
in Philadelphia, Mississippi.  

Competition

     NBC and its subsidiaries currently serve five counties and
nine municipalities in North Mississippi.  Over this same area,
the bank competes directly with approximately 15 competing
banking institutions, credit unions, finance companies, brokerage
firms, mortgage companies and insurance companies.  The
institutions range in asset size of approximately $100 million to
in excess of $5 billion.  NBC is the largest bank domiciled in
its immediate service area.  Asset size of competitive banks
depends on whether the reference is made to the branch banks or
to their parent banks.  Several other competitors are branches or
divisions of nationwide companies with more resources than the
Company and its subsidiaries.

     FSB is located in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and has a main office
and two branch locations.  The bank competes with approximately
eight other financial institutions, most of which are larger. 
The other institutions range in size from approximately $20
million to $15 billion.  Asset size of the competitive banks
depends on whether reference is made to the branch banks or to
their parent bank.  FSB also competes with numerous credit
unions, finance companies, etc., many of which are branches of
nationwide companies.  The acquisition of FSB by the Company
provides FSB with access to resources, products, and services
previously unavailable, thereby improving its competitive
position.


Supervision and Regulation

     The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to state and
federal banking laws and regulations which impose specific
requirements or restrictions on and provide for general
regulatory oversight with respect to virtually all aspects of
operations.  These laws and regulations are generally intended to
protect depositors, not shareholders.  To the extent that the
following summary describes statutory or regulatory provisions,
it is qualified in its entirety by reference to the particular
statutory and regulatory provisions.  Any change in applicable
laws or regulations may have a material effect on the business
and prospects of the Company.  Beginning with the enactment of
the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act
of 1989 ("FIRREA") and following with Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation Improvement Act (FDICIA), which was enacted in 1991,
numerous additional regulatory requirements have been placed on
the banking industry in the past five years, and additional
changes have been proposed.  The operations of the Company and
its subsidiaries may be affected by legislative changes and the
policies of various regulatory authorities.  The Company is
unable to predict the nature or the extent of the effect on its
business and earnings that fiscal or monetary policies, economic
control, or new federal or state legislation may have in the
future.

     The Company is a bank holding company within the meaning of
the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (the Act) and is registered
as such with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
(the Federal Reserve Board).  As a bank holding company, the
Company is required to file with the Federal Reserve Board an
annual report and such other information as may be required.  The
Federal Reserve Board may also make examinations of the Company. 
In addition, the Federal Reserve Board has the authority to
regulate provisions of certain bank holding company debt.

     The Act requires every bank holding company to obtain the
prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board before acquiring
substantially all the assets of or direct or indirect ownership
or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any bank which
is not already majority-owned.  The Act also prohibits a bank
holding company, with certain exceptions, from engaging in or
acquiring direct or indirect control if more than 5% of the
voting shares of any company engaged in non-banking activities. 
One of the principal exceptions to these prohibitions is for
engaging in or acquiring shares of a company engaged in
activities found by the Federal Reserve Board by order or
regulation to be so closely related to banking or managing banks
as to be a proper incident thereto.  The Act prohibits the
acquisition by a bank holding company of more than 5% of the
outstanding voting shares of a bank located outside the state in
which the operations of its banking subsidiaries are principally
conducted, unless such an acquisition is specifically authorized
by statute of the state in which the bank to be acquired is
located.  The Act and regulations of the Federal Reserve Board
also prohibit a bank holding company and its subsidiaries from
engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any
extension of credit or provision of any property or services.

     As a bank holding company, the Company is required to give
the Federal Reserve prior written notice of any purchase or
redemption of its outstanding equity securities if the gross
consideration for the purchase or redemption, when combined with
the net consideration paid for all such purchases or redemptions
during the preceding 12 months, is equal to 10% or more of the
Company's consolidated net worth.  The Federal Reserve may
disapprove such a purchase or redemption if it determines that
the proposal constitutes an unsafe or unsound practice, would
violate any law, regulation, Federal Reserve order or directive
or any condition imposed by, or written agreement with, the
Federal Reserve.

     In accordance with Federal Reserve Board policy, the Company
is expected to act as a source of financial strength to the
subsidiaries.  The Federal Reserve Board may require a bank
holding company to terminate any activity or relinquish control
of a nonbank subsidiary (other than a nonbank subsidiary of a
bank) upon the Federal Reserve Board's determination that such
activity or control constitutes a serious risk to the financial
soundness of stability of any subsidiary depository institution
of the bank holding company.  Further, federal bank regulatory
authorities have additional discretion to require a bank holding
company to divest itself of any bank or nonbank subsidiary if the
agency determines that divestiture may aid the depository
institution's financial condition.

     Dividends paid by the Company are substantially provided
from dividends from the banking subsidiaries.  Generally, the
approval of the bank's regulator is required if the total of all
dividends declared by a bank in any calendar year exceeds the
total of its net profits for that year combined with its retained
net profits of the preceding two years.  At December 31, 1995,
the banking subsidiaries had available for payment of dividends
to the Company, without prior approval of their regulator,
approximately $4.7 million.  

     The Federal Reserve Board, FDIC and Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) have established risk-based
capital guidelines for holding companies, such as the Company,
and banks.  The capital-based regulatory framework contains five
categories of compliance with regulatory capital requirements,
including "well capitalized," adequately capitalized,"
undercapitalized," significantly undercapitalized," and
critically undercapitalized."  The Company's strategy related to
risk-based capital is to maintain capital levels which will be
sufficient to qualify the Company's banking subsidiaries for the
"well capitalized" category under the guidelines set forth by the
FDICIA.  Maintaining capital ratios at the "well capitalized"
level avoids certain restrictions which, for example, could
impact the Company's banking subsidiaries' FDIC assessment, trust
services and asset/liability management.  At December 31, 1995,
the tier I and total capital ratios, respectively, for the Bank
were well above the minimum 6% and 10% levels required to be
categorized as a "well capitalized" insured depository
institution.

     The FDIC, OCC and Federal Reserve Board have historically
had common capital adequacy guidelines involving minimum (a)
leverage capital and (b) risk-based capital requirements:

     (a) The first requirement establishes a minimum ratio of
capital as a percentage of total assets.  The FDIC, OCC, and
Federal Reserve Board require institutions to maintain a minimum
leverage ratio of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to total average
assets based on the institution's rating under the regulatory
CAMEL rating system.  Institutions with CAMEL ratings of one that
are not anticipating or experiencing significant growth and have
well-diversified risk are required to maintain a minimum leverage
ratio of 3 percent.  An additional 100 to 200 basis points are
required for all but these most highly rated institutions.

     (b) The second requirement also establishes a minimum ratio
of capital as a percentage of total assets, but gives weight to
the relative risk of each asset.  The FDIC, OCC, and Federal
Reserve Bank require institutions to maintain a minimum ratio of
Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.0 percent.  Banks
must also maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-
weighted assets of 8.0 percent.  At December 31, 1995, the
Company's Tier 1 and total capital ratios were 15.4% and 16.6%,
respectively.

     Under these guidelines, banks' and bank holding companies'
assets are given risk-weights of 0%, 20%, 50%, or 100%.  In
addition, certain off-balance sheet items are given credit
conversion factors to convert them to asset equivalent amounts to
which an appropriate risk-weight will apply.  These computations
result in the total risk-weighted assets.  Most loans are
assigned to the 100% risk category, except for first mortgage
loans fully secured by residential property and, under certain
circumstances, residential construction loans, both of which
carry a 50% rating.  Most investment securities are assigned to
the 20% category, except for municipal or state revenue bonds,
which have a 50% rating, and direct obligations of or obligations
guaranteed by the United States Treasury or United States
Government agencies, which have a 0% rating.  

     The primary supervisory authority of NBC is the OCC, and of
FSB is the FDIC.  The OCC and FDIC regulate or monitor virtually
all areas of the Bank's operations, including security devices
and procedures, adequacy of capitalization and loss reserves,
loans, investments, borrowings, deposits, mergers, issuances of
securities, payment of dividends, interest rates payable on
deposits, interest rates or fees chargeable on loans,
establishment of branches, corporate reorganizations, maintenance
of books and records, and adequacy of staff training to carry on
safe lending and deposit gathering practices.  The OCC and FDIC
also impose limitations on the aggregate investment in real
estate, bank premises, and furniture and fixtures.  In addition
to regular examinations, the institution must furnish to its
regulator quarterly reports containing a full and accurate
statement of its affairs.

     Banks are subject to the provisions of Section 23A of the
Federal Reserve Act, which place limits on the amount of loans or
extensions of credit to, or investments in, or certain other
transactions with, affiliates and on the amount of advances to
third parties collateralized by the securities or obligations of
affiliates.  The aggregate of all covered transactions is limited
in amount, as to any one affiliate, to 10% of the bank's capital
and surplus and, as to all affiliates combined, to 20% of the
bank's capital and surplus.  Furthermore, within the foregoing
limitations as to amount, each covered transaction must meet
specified collateral requirements.  Compliance is also required
with certain provisions designed to avoid the taking of low
quality assets.

     Banks are also subject to the provisions of Section 23B of
the Federal Reserve Act which, among other things, prohibit an
institution from engaging in certain transactions with certain
affiliates unless the transactions are on terms substantially the
same, or at least as favorable to such institution or its
subsidiaries, as those prevailing at the time for comparable
transactions with non-affiliated companies.  The Bank is subject
is certain restrictions on extensions of credit to executive
officers, directors, certain principal shareholders, and their
related interests.  Such extensions of credit (i) must be made on
substantially the same terms, including interest rates and
collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable
transactions with third parties and (ii) must not involve more
than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable
features.

     National banks are required by the National Bank Act to
adhere to branch office banking law, the Bank may open branches
throughout Mississippi with the prior approval of the OCC.  In
addition, with prior regulatory approval, the Bank is able to
acquire existing banking operations in Mississippi.  Furthermore,
federal legislation has recently been passed which permits
interstate branching.  The new law permits out of state
acquisitions by bank holding companies (subject to veto by new
state law), interstate branching by banks if allowed by state
law, interstate merging by banks, and de novo branching by
national banks if allowed by state law.

     The Community Reinvestment Act requires that, in connection
with examinations of financial institutions within their
respective jurisdictions, the Federal Reserve, the FDIC, or the
OCC shall evaluate the record of the financial institutions in
meeting the credit needs of their local communities, including
low and moderate income neighborhoods, consistent with the safe
and sound operation of those institutions.  These factors are
also considered in evaluating mergers, acquisitions, and
applications to open a branch or facility.

     Interest and certain other charges collected or contracted
by Banks are subject to state usuary laws and certain federal
laws concerning interest rates.  The loan operations are also
subject to certain federal laws applicable to credit
transactions, such as the federal Truth-In-Lending Act, governing
disclosures of credit terms to consumer borrowers; the Home
Mortgage Disclosure Act of 1975, requiring financial institutions
to provide information to enable the public and public officials
to determine whether a financial institution will be fulfilling
its obligation to help meet the housing needs of the community it
serves; the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, prohibiting
discrimination on the basis of race, creed or other prohibited
factors in extending credit; the Fair Credit Reporting Act of
1978, governing the use and provision of information to credit
reporting agencies; the Fair Debt Collection Act, governing the
manner in which consumer debts may be collected by collection
agencies; and the rules and regulations of the various federal
agencies charged with the responsibility of implementing such
federal laws.  The deposit operations also are subject to the
Right to Financial Privacy Act, which imposes a duty to maintain
confidentiality of consumer financial records and prescribes
procedures for complying with administrative subpoenas of
financial records, and the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and
Regulation E issued by the Federal Reserve Board to implement
that act, which governs automatic deposits to and withdrawals
from deposit accounts and customers' rights and liabilities
arising from the use of automated teller machines and other
electronic banking services. 
 
     Subsidiary banks of a bank holding company are 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, on investments in stock or other securities thereof
and on the taking of such stock or securities as collateral for
loans to any borrower.

     The bank subsidiaries are members of the FDIC and their
deposits are insured as provided by law.

     Finance and CNI are subject to regulation by the applicable
state agencies.  These agencies set reserve requirements,
reporting standards, and establish regulations, all of which
affect business operations.

Governmental Monetary Policies

     As a bank chartered under the laws of the United States, NBC
is a member of the Federal Reserve System.  The earnings of NBC
are affected by the fiscal and monetary policies of the Federal
Reserve System which regulates the national money supply in order
to mitigate recessionary and inflationary pressures.  The
techniques used by the Federal Reserve System include setting the
reserve requirements of depository institutions and establishing
the discount rate on member bank borrowings.  The Federal Reserve
System also conducts open market operations in United States
Government securities.  

     The policies of the Federal Reserve System and other
regulatory agencies have a direct effect on the amount of bank
loans and deposits, and the interest rates charged and paid
thereon.  While the impact these policies may have upon the
future business and earnings of the financial institutions cannot
be accurately predicted, such policies can materially affect the
earnings of commercial banks.

Sources and Availability of Funds

     The materials essential to the business of the Company and
its subsidiaries consist primarily of funds derived from deposits
and other borrowing in the financial markets.  The availability
of funds is primarily dependent upon the economic policies of the
government, the economy in general and the institution's ability
to compete in the market place.

Seasonability

     Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries are
dependent upon any seasons.

Dependence Upon A Single Customer

     The Company nor any of its subsidiaries are dependent upon a
single customer or very few customers.

Executive Officers

     The executive officers of the Company and its bank
subsidiaries, National Bank of Commerce of Mississippi and First
State Bank of Tuscaloosa, as of December 31, 1995, are listed
below.  The title indicates a position held in the Company and

      2.  There were no loan concentrations in excess of 10% of total
          loans at December 31, 1995.

      3.  There were no outstanding foreign loans at December 31, 1995.

      4.  Loans classified for regulatory purposes or for internal 
          credit review purposes that have not been disclosed in the 
          above table do not represent or result from trends or     
          uncertainties that management expects will materially 
          impact the financial condition of the Company or its 
          subsidiary banks, or their future operating results, 
          liquidity, or capital resources.

      5.  If all nonaccrual loans had been current throughout their 
          terms, interest income would have not been significantly         
          different for the years ended 1995, 1994, and 1993.

      6.  Management stringently monitors loans that are classified 
          as nonperforming.  Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual 
          loans, loans past due 90 days or more, and loans 
          renegotiated or restructured because of a debtor's 
          financial difficulties.  Loans are generally placed on
          nonaccrual status if any of the following events occur:  
          1) the classification of a loan as nonaccrual internally 
          or regulatory examiners, 2) delinquency on principal for 
          90 days or more unless management is in the process of       
          collection, 3) a balance remains after repossession  
          of collateral, 4) notification of bankruptcy, or 5)  
          management's judgment that nonaccrual is  
          appropriate.

      7.  At December 31, 1995, management was not aware of any 
          potential problem loans not previously disclosed.

   D. Other interest-bearing assets

      There were no other interest-bearing non-performing assets at 
      December 31, 1995.

     C. Loans and Risk Descriptions

        Real Estate Loans

        NBC and FSB originate loans secured by commercial real
        estate, one-to-four family residential properties, and
        multi-family dwelling units (5 or more units).  At
        December 31, 1995, these loans totaled $212 million or
        approximately 60% of the loan portfolio.

        NBC and FSB originate commercial real estate loans up
        to 80% of the appraised value.  Currently, it is the
        philosophy to originate these loans only to selected
        known borrowers and on properties in the market area.

        Of primary concern in commercial real estate lending is
        the borrower's credit worthiness and the feasibility and
        cash flow potential of the project.  To monitor cash
        flows of borrowers, annual financial statements are
        obtained from the borrower and loan guarantors, if any. 
        Although many banks have had significant losses in
        commercial real estate lending, NBC and FSB have
        sustained few losses, and those losses were not
        significant relative to the size of the entire
        commercial real estate loan portfolio at the time.

        NBC and FSB originate loans secured by first and junior
        liens on one-to-four family residences in their lending 
        areas.  Typically, such loans are single family homes
        that serve as the primary residence of the borrower.  
        Generally, these loans are originated in amounts up to
        80% of the appraised value or selling price of the
        property.  In the past, very few losses from these types
        of loans have been experienced.

        Loans for multi-family (5 or more) residential
        properties are generally secured by apartment buildings. 
        Loans secured by income properties are generally larger
        and involve greater risk than residential loans because
        payments are often dependent on the successful operation
        or management of the properties.  As a result, these
        types of loans may be more sensitive to adverse 
        conditions in the real estate market or the economy.
        Cash flow and financial statements are obtained from the
        borrowers and any guarantors.  Also, rent rolls are
        often obtained.

        Consumer and Other Loans

        NBC and FSB offer consumer loans in the form of home
        improvement loans, mobile home loans, automobile loans
        and unsecured personal loans.  These loans totalled $83 
        million or 24% of total loans at December 31, 1995.
        Consumer loans are originated in order to provide a wide
        range of financial services to customers and because the
        terms and normally higher interest rates on such loans
        help maintain a profitable spread between the average
        loan yield and the cost of funds.

        In connection with consumer loan applications, the
        borrower's income statement and credit bureau report
        are reviewed.  In addition, the relationship of the loan
        to the value of the collateral is considered.  All
        automobile loan applications are reviewed, as well as
        the value of the unit which secured the loan.

        NBC and FSB intend to continue to emphasize the
        origination of consumer loans.  Management believes that
        its loan loss experience in connection with its consumer
        loan portfolio is favorable in comparison to industry
        averages.

        NBC and FSB make commercial business loans on both a
        secured and unsecured basis with terms which generally
        do not exceed five years.  Nonreal estate commercial
        loans primarily consist of short-term loans for working
        capital purposes, inventories, seasonal loans, lines of 
        credit and equipment loans.  A personal guaranty of
        payment by the principals of any borrowing entity is
        often required and the financial statements and income
        tax returns of the entity and its guarantors are
        reviewed.  At December 31, 1995, NBC and FSB's
        commercial business loans represented approximately 13% 
        of its total loan portfolio.

     D. For the year 1996, losses for all loan categories, as a   
     percentage of average loans, are expected to approximate  
     that of 1995.

 IX.  Interest Sensitivity Analysis

      The following table reflects the year-end position of the
      Company's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
      liabilities which can either reprice or mature within the
      designated time period.  The interest rate sensitivity gaps
      can vary from day-to-day and are not necessarily a
      reflection of the future.  In addition, certain assets and
      liabilities within the same designated time period may
      nonetheless reprice at different times and at different
      levels.

       assets                       (4.9%)    (10.0%)     9.9%

   The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by
   examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities
   are "interest rate sensitive" and by monitoring an
   institution's interest rate sensitivity "gap".  An asset or
   liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a
   specific time period if it will mature or reprice within
   that time period.  The interest rate sensitivity gap is
   defined as the difference between the amount of interest-
   earning assets anticipated, based upon certain assumptions,
   to mature or reprice within that time period.  A gap is
   considered positive when the amount of interest rate
   sensitive  assets maturing within a specific time frame
   exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities
   maturing within that same time frame.  During a period of
   falling interest rates, a negative gap would tend to result
   in an increase in net interest income while a positive gap
   would tend to adversely affect net interest income.  In a
   rising interest rate environment, an institution with a
   positive gap would generally be expected, absent the
   effects of other factors, to experience a greater increase
   in the yield of its assets relative to the costs of its
   liabilities and thus an increase in the institution's net
   interest income would result whereas an institution with a
   negative gap could experience the opposite results.

   At December 31, 1995, total interest-earning assets
   maturing or repricing within one year was less than
   interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within
   the same time period by $29 million (cumulative),
   representing a negative cumulative one year gap of 10% of
   earning assets.  Management of the Company believes this is
   the proper position in the current interest rate
   environment.

   Banking regulators have recently issued advisories
   concerning the management of interest rate risk (IRR).  The
   regulators consider that effective interest rate management
   is an essential component of safe and sound banking
   practices.  To monitor its IRR, the Company's risk
   management practices include (a) Risk Management, (b) Risk
   Monitoring and (c) Risk Control.

   Risk Management consists of a system in which a measurement
   is taken of the amount of earnings at risk when interest
   rates change.  The Company does this by first preparing a
   "base strategy" which is the position of the bank and its
   forecasted earnings based upon the current interest rate
   environment or, most likely, interest rate environment. 
   The IRR is then measured based upon hypothetical changes in
   interest rates by measuring the impact such a change will
   have on the "base strategy."

   Risk monitoring consists of evaluating the "base strategy"
   and the assumptions used in its development based upon the
   current interest rate environment.  This evaluation is
   performed quarterly by management or more often in a
   rapidly changing interest rate situation and monitored by
   an Asset/Liability Management Committee.

   Risk control is utilized based upon the setting of
   guidelines  as to the tolerance for interest rate exposure. 
   These guidelines are set by senior management and approved
   by the board of directors.

Lowndes, Clay, Oktibbeha, Neshoba, and Noxubee Counties in
Mississippi and Tuscaloosa County in Alabama.  Market prices are
the estimates of management based on transactions of which they
had knowledge.  Quarterly high and low sale prices are not
available; however, the approximate ranges in which the stock
traded were between $61.00 and $73.00 during 1994 and $71.50 and
$81.00 during 1995.  Dividends were declared semi-annually in
June and December of each of the years reported.

        MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                        AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


   The following discussion is intended to further explain financial
information outlined in the accompanying five year listing of selected
financial data.  Information contained in this data summary depicts
selected totals from the company's balance sheet and operating results
for the past five years.  Your attention is also directed to
management's letter to shareholders at the beginning of this Annual
Report.  This letter further explains significant changes that occurred
in the company's operation during the past year.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   Total assets of the company have increased 58.6% over the past
five years.  The 20.6% growth in 1994 reflects the company's
acquisition of First State Bank in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.  The 5.6% asset
growth in 1995 is somewhat misleading considering the $17.8 million
federal funds which were purchased at the end of 1994 to accommodate
large purchases of municipal securities.  These federal fund purchases
tended to inflate the company's balance sheet for a brief period at the
end of 1994, thus causing 1995's asset growth percentage to be somewhat
misleading.  The modest levels of asset growth in 1992 and 1993 may be
attributed to generally low levels of interest rates which tended to
reduce balance sheet gains.  With the exception of 1992, the company
has experienced solid loan growth.  The lower level of loan growth in
1992 reflects the reduced level of economic activity that existed in
the company's markets throughout most of that year.  Excluding 1991
loan losses from the acquired Bank of Philadelphia portfolio, loan
losses have been low.  Net charge-offs for 1995 and 1994 respectively
were .14% of net loans outstanding in each year.

   Deposits have increased 56.8% over the past five years.  The
18.9% increase in deposits during 1994 is also attributable to the
First State Bank of Tuscaloosa acquisition.  Deposit growth was
essentially stagnant during the 1991-93 period as the generally low
level of interest rates and increased non-bank competition for deposits
made deposit increases hard to attain.  Also, during the 1991-93
period, management employed a strategy of bidding less competitively
for volatile public fund deposits which created a decline, particularly
in 1992, in this deposit source.  Management has always been committed
to attracting deposits at an interest cost which would assure the
maintenance of proper interest margins for the company.  Management has
also felt that it could improve profits by allowing loans to grow at a
faster pace than deposits.  This practice was modified somewhat during
1995 as loans reached a more optimum level relative to outstanding
deposits.

   Shareholders' equity, particularly as it relates to assets, has
represented a consistent strength of the company throughout the years
noted in the summary data.  Shareholders' equity has increased 57.5%
over the past five years.  Shareholders' equity in 1994 reflected
unrealized losses on "Available for Sale Securities" of $2,783,576 and
unrealized gains on "Available for Sale Securities" of $906,236 in
1995, as required to be reported under FASB 115.  

   Net income has maintained consistent growth in each of the five
years reported.  Earnings have increased 73.0% over the past five
years.  Earnings increases were 10.3%  in 1993, 12.6% in 1994, and 9.4%
in 1995.  Return on average assets (ROA), a primary measure of earnings
strength, has exceeded 1.2% in each of the years noted.  ROA has been
1.4% in 1993, 1994 and 1995.  Earnings per share have also grown in
each of the past five years, increasing from $4.31 in 1991 to $6.51 in
1995.  Regular cash dividends have been increased in each of the five
years outlined in the summary.  

   Special cash dividends of $.25 and $.15 per share in 1992 and
1995 respectively were paid in recognition of the company's strong
earnings and equity positions.  Also, a 10.86% stock dividend was
declared in September 1993.  Per share data in the accompanying five
year summary has been adjusted to reflect retroactively the 10.86% 1993
stock dividend.  

   Net interest income (NII), the primary source of earnings for the
company, has increased in each of the five years in the summary.  This
income component represents income generated from earning assets less
the interest expense of funding those assets.  NII increased 18.8% in
1994 and 5.8% in 1995.  The reduced increase in 1995 is attributable to
the company's being less aggressive in passing reduced asset yields
onto the deposit side of the balance sheet since these deposits were
needed to fund increasing loan demand.  Changes in NII can be divided
into two components, the change in average earning assets (volume
component) and the change in the net interest margin (rate component). 
During 1995, average earning assets increased $35.5 million or 7.4%. 
Net interest margin for the year decreased to 4.57% from 4.61% in 1994. 


   As can be determined from these components of change, 1995's
improvement in NII resulted exclusively from an increase in average
earning assets.  Net interest margin represents the difference between
yields on earning assets and rates paid on interest bearing
liabilities.  Although rates paid on deposits declined during 1995,
yields on earning assets declined at a slightly greater amount, thus
reducing net interest margin.  As noted, the growth of the company's
loan portfolio during 1995 represented the key earning asset increase
which allowed for an increase in net interest income for the year.

   The company has also maintained a consistent and disciplined
asset/liability management policy during each of the years noted in the
summary.  This policy focuses on interest rate risk and rate
sensitivity.  The primary objective of rate sensitivity management is
to maintain interest income growth while reducing exposure to adverse
fluctuations in rates.  The company utilizes an Asset/Liability
Management Committee which evaluates and analyzes the company's
pricing, maturities, growth, and balance sheet mix strategies in an
effort to make informed decisions that will increase income and limit
interest rate risk.  The committee uses simulation modeling as a guide
for its decision-making.  Modeling techniques are also utilized to
forecast changes in net income and the economic value of equity under
assumed fluctuations in interest rate levels.  

   Due to the potential volatility of interest rates, NBC's goal is
to stabilize the net interest margin by maintaining a neutral rate
sensitive position.  At year-end 1995, the company's balance sheet
reflected $19.0 million more in rate sensitive liabilities than assets
that were scheduled to reprice within one year.  This represents 3.8%
of total assets which would be considered an essentially neutral rate
sensitive position.  Although management feels that rates are likely to
move slightly lower during the first half of 1996 before leveling out,
this neutral position would appear to place the company in a low
interest rate risk posture.  We have never believed that speculation on
the change of interest rate levels warranted moving the company from a
neutral position in its rate sensitive asset/liability relationships. 
Although earnings could be enhanced if predictions are correct, they
also could be put at significant risk if a neutral position is
deliberately avoided and interest rates move against predictions.

   The company's Provision for Loan and Lease Losses is utilized to
replenish its Reserve for Loan and Lease Losses on its balance sheet. 
The reserve is maintained at a level deemed adequate by the Board of
Directors after evaluation of the risk exposure contained in the
company's loan portfolio.  The reserve amount maintained is deemed
entirely adequate to cover exposure within the company's loan
portfolio.  The reserve has increased 201.8% over the past five years
or from 1.19% of net loans in 1990 to 1.8% in 1995.  

   Non-interest income and non-interest expense totals each reflect
the impact of the acquisitions of the Bank of Philadelphia in 1991 and
First State Bank of Tuscaloosa in 1994.  Non-interest income includes
various service charges, fees, and commissions collected by the
company; non-interest expense represents ordinary overhead expenses to
include salaries, bonuses, and benefits.  The 1994 non-interest expense
total includes $641,786 in expenses attributable to the amortization of
good will associated with the First State Bank acquisition and
intentional bond losses taken in December 1994 to free up a portion of
the portfolio to reinvest at higher available yields.  Non-interest
expense in 1995 increased 4.3% with new personnel adding to salary and
benefit costs; reductions in BIF (Bank Insurance Fund) premiums reduced
the expense.  Finally, it is noted that the company maintains a formal
salary administration program which considers extensive comparative
salary data and other indexes supplied by a leading outside consulting
firm.  This data is utilized to assure that salaries are in line and
competitive to comparable jobs in the marketplace.   Incentive bonuses
were expensed in each of the years noted and are paid to company
employees based on the attainment of predetermined profit goals.

   Growth in the company's income tax expense generally parallels
income gains.  High quality, tax free municipal bonds are added to the
portfolio as deemed prudent in an effort to minimize tax liabilities. 
Large purchases of municipal securities in December 1994 and January
1995 assisted in reducing the company's effective tax rate.  However,
the ability to significantly reduce income tax expenses through this
investment choice is limited by the Alternative Minimum Tax Provision
and the company's normal liquidity and balance sheet structure
requirements.  The company received a $174,160 tax benefit in 1993
resulting from a change in accounting principles regarding deferred
income taxes.  The company's effective tax rate was 24.7% in 1994 and
23.7% in 1995.

LIQUIDITY, ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

   Liquidity may be defined as the ability of the company to meet
cash flow requirements created by decreases in deposits and/or other
sources of funds or increases in loan demand.  The company has
experienced no problem with liquidity over any of the years noted and
anticipates that all liquidity requirements will be met comfortably in
the foreseeable future.  The company's traditional sources of funds
from deposit increases, maturing loans and investments, and earnings
have allowed it to consistently generate sufficient funds for liquidity
needs.  It is pointed out that the company experienced fewer periods of
excess liquidity during 1995 as loan volume continued to grow, and the
company's loan/deposit ratio reached its desired 70% level.  The
company has utilized the Federal Home Loan Bank as a source of funding
for fixed rate, term loan commitments.  At the end of 1995 the company
had outstanding to the Federal Home Loan Bank $9.6 million which is
scheduled to mature over the next 3-5 years.  The company expects
normal loan and other cash flows to allow it to retire these funding
lines with no adverse effect on liquidity.

   As mentioned previously, the company maintains a strict
asset/liability management policy.  The adherence to such a policy has
an obvious material effect on the structure of the company's balance
sheet, and, to a degree, on its liquidity positions.  

CAPITAL

   Retained earnings have served as the company's exclusive source
of capital growth over the five years noted in the financial summary. 
Shareholders' equity, as stated previously, has grown consistently over
this period and relates most favorably to the company's assets.

   Current regulatory requirements call for a basic leverage ratio
of 5.0% for a bank to be considered as "well capitalized."  At the end
of 1995, NBC maintained a 9.91% leverage ratio which obviously allowed
it to significantly exceed the ratio required for a "well capitalized"
institution.

   As an additional means of comparison, it is noted that regulatory
authorities have become increasingly interested in evaluating a
financial institution's capital against its assets which have been risk
weighted (high risk assets would require a higher capital allotment,
lower risk assets a lower capital allotment).  In this context, a "well
capitalized" bank is required to have a Tier 1 risk based capital ratio
(excludes reserve for loan losses) of 6.0% and a total risk based
capital ratio (includes reserve for loan losses) of 10.0%.  At the end
of 1995, the company had a Tier 1 ratio of 15.4% and a total risk based
capital ratio of 16.6%, once again placing the company well above the
level required for a "well capitalized" institution.

   The company's capital position obviously exceeds regulatory
requirements, even for "well capitalized" institutions.  As noted
previously, equity capital for the company has increased 57.5% since
1990 to a level of $60,272,268.  Management considers this level of
capital to be entirely sufficient to support the needs of the company.

                   INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
NBC Capital Corporation


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of NBC
Capital Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994,
and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in
stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1995.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Corporation's management.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audits 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 our audits provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.  In our opinion, the financial statements
referred to above, present fairly, in all material respects, the
consolidated financial position of NBC Capital Corporation and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the consolidated
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                            NBC CAPITAL CORPORATION

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                          DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994



NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   NBC Capital Corporation (the "Corporation"), and its subsidiaries,
   follow generally accepted accounting principles, including, where
   applicable, general practices within the banking industry.

   1. Basis of Presentation

   The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
   Corporation and the following:

      National Bank of Commerce of Mississippi (NBC), a wholly-owned
      subsidiary of the Corporation,

      NBC Service Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of NBC,

      Philadelphia Finance Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
      NBC, and

      Commerce National Insurance Company, a 79%-owned subsidiary of
      NBC Service Corporation.

   Beginning with the year 1994, the consolidated statements also
   include the accounts of the Corporation's 99.2% owned subsidiary,
   First State Bank of Tuscaloosa (First State Bank).

   Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
   eliminated.

   The financial institution subsidiaries (NBC and First State Bank)
   account for approximately 99% of the assets included in the  
   consolidated financial statements.

   2.  Nature of Operations

   The Corporation is a multi-bank holding company.  Its primary asset
   is its investment in its subsidiary banks.  NBC and First State   
   Bank provide full banking services, including trust services.  NBC
   operates under a national bank charter and is subject to regulation
   of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.  The area served  
   by NBC is the North Central region of Mississippi with locations in
   nine communities.  First State Bank is a state chartered bank and  
   is subject to regulation of the Federal Deposit Insurance
   Corporation and the State of Alabama.  First State Bank serves the  
   Tuscaloosa, Alabama area.  The primary asset of NBC Service
   Corporation is its investment in Commerce National Insurance 
   Company, a life insurance company.  Philadelphia Finance
   Corporation is a finance company with an office located in
   Philadelphia, Mississippi.

   3. Estimates

   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.          
    
   4.  Securities

   Investments in securities are classified into three categories and
   are accounted for as follows:

   Available-for-Sale Securities
 
   Securities classified as available-for-sale are those securities
   that are intended to be held for an indefinite period of time, but 
   not necessarily to maturity.  Any decision to sell a security 
   classified as available-for-sale would be based on various factors,
   including movements in interest rates, liquidity needs, security 
   risk assessments, changes in the mix of assets and liabilities and 
   other similar factors.  These securities are carried at their
   estimated fair value, and the net unrealized gain or loss is 
   reported in stockholders' equity, net of tax, until realized.

   Gains and losses on the sale of available-for-sale securities are
   determined using the adjusted cost of the specific security sold.

   Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the
   interest method.

   Securities to be Held-to-Maturity

   Securities classified as held-to-maturity are those securities for
   which there is a positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. 
   These securities are carried at cost adjusted for amortization of 
   premium and accretion of discount, computed by the interest method. 


   Trading Account Securities

   Trading account securities are those securities which are held for
   the purpose of selling them at a profit.  There were no trading  
   account securities on hand at December 31, 1995 and 1994.


   5. Loans

   Loans are carried at the principal amount outstanding, net of  
   unearned interest.  Interest income on installment loans is
   recognized using a method which approximates the interest method.
   Interest income on all other loans is recognized based on the 
   principal balance outstanding and the stated rate of the loan.

   Loans are generally placed on a nonaccrual status when principal or
   interest is past due ninety days, or when specifically determined
   to be impaired.  When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, 
   interest accrued but not received is generally reversed against
   interest income.  If collectibility is in doubt, cash receipts on
   nonaccrual loans are used to reduce principal rather than recorded
   as interest income.

   Loan origination fees and certain direct origination costs are
   capitalized and recognized as an adjustment of the yield on the 
   related loan.

   6. Reserve for Loan Losses

   For financial reporting purposes, the provision for loan losses
   charged to operations is based upon management's estimations of the 
   amount necessary to maintain the reserve at an adequate level,
   considering past loan loss experience, current economic conditions,
   credit reviews of the loan portfolio, changes in the size and 
   character of the loan portfolio and other factors warranting
   consideration.  Reserves for any impaired loans are generally
   determined based on collateral values.  Loans are charged against
   the reserve for loan losses when management believes that the 
   collectibility of the principal is unlikely.  The reserve is 
   maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb
   potential loan losses.

   7. Premises and Equipment

   Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated
   depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation and amortization are
   determined using the straight-line method at rates calculated to
   depreciate or amortize the cost of assets over their estimated 
   useful lives.

   Maintenance and repairs of property and equipment are charged to
   operations, and major improvements are capitalized.  Upon 
   retirement, sale, or other disposition of property and equipment,
   the cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the 
   accounts, and any gains or losses are included in operations.

   8. Other Real Estate

   Other real estate consists of properties acquired through
   foreclosure and is recorded at the lower of cost or current 
   appraisal less estimated costs to sell.  Any write-down from
   the cost to fair value required at the time of foreclosure is
   charged to the reserve for loan losses. Subsequent gains or losses 
   on other real estate are reported in other operating income or
   expenses.

   9. Intangible Assets

   Intangible assets consisting principally of goodwill associated
   with the acquisition of First State Bank are being amortized to
   expense using the straight-line method over a fifteen year period.
   Amortization expense was $185,845 and $182,625 for 1995 and 1994, 
   respectively.

   10. Income Taxes

   Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of the transactions
   reported in the consolidated financial statements and consist of  
   taxes currently payable, plus deferred taxes related primarily to
   differences between the basis of securities, reserve for loan 
   losses, premises and equipment, other real estate and prepaid or
   accrued employee benefits for financial and income tax reporting. 
   The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax
   consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable
   or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or
   settled.

   The Corporation and its subsidiaries (except for Commerce National
   Insurance Company) file consolidated income tax returns.  The  
   subsidiaries provide for income taxes on a separate return basis
   and remit to the Corporation amounts determined to be payable.

   11.  Trust Assets

   Assets of the Trust Department, other than cash on deposit, are not
   included in the accompanying balance sheets, since such items are
   not assets of the bank.

   12.  Employee Benefits

   NBC maintains a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan 
   covering substantially all full-time employees.  The plan calls for 
   benefits to be paid to eligible employees at retirement based 
   primarily upon years of service and compensation.  Contributions to
   the plan reflect benefits attributed to employees' services to  
   date, as well as services expected to be earned in the future.  The
   annual pension cost charged to expense is actuarially determined in
   accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
   No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions."

   NBC and First State Bank provide a deferred compensation   
   arrangement (401(k) plan) whereby employees contribute a percentage
   of their compensation.  For employee contributions of five percent
   or less, NBC and First State Bank contribute twenty-five percent of
   the employee's contribution to the plan.

   Employees of NBC and First State Bank participate in a nonleveraged
   Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP) through which common stock of the 
   Corporation is purchased at its market price for the benefit of 
   employees.  Contributions are made at the discretion of the Board
   of Directors and are expensed in the applicable year.  The ESOP is 
   accounted for in accordance with Statement of Position 93-6, 
   "Employers' Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans."

   NBC makes available a deferred income plan to certain employees and
   directors.  Costs are accrued and charged to expense in amounts
   sufficient to equal the present value of benefits due at the
   participant's full eligibility date.

   The Corporation provides an employee stock benefit plan whereby
   2,109 shares of the Corporation's stock have been assigned for the
   benefit of certain key employees.  Under the terms of the plan,
   retirement or similar payments will be equal to the fair market
   value of the stock plus all cash dividends paid since the adoption  
   of the agreement.  Compensation expense was recorded at the  
   establishment date based on the market value of the stock.  The
   difference between any increase or decrease in the value of the 
   stock is recorded annually as an adjustment to salaries.

   13. Cash Flows

   For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents
   include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and federal funds
   sold.  Generally, federal funds are sold for a one-day period.

   14. Per Share Data

   The computation of per share data is based on 1,200,000 shares
   outstanding during each year adjusted retroactively for stock 
   dividends.

   15. Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

   In the ordinary course of business, the financial institution
   subsidiaries enter into off-balance sheet financial instruments 
   consisting of commitments to extend credit, credit card lines,
   commercial and similar letters of credit and commitments to
   purchase securities.  Such financial instruments are recorded in 
   the financial statements when they are exercised.


NOTE B - ACCOUNTING CHANGE

  Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 115,
  "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," 
  was adopted by the Corporation and its subsidiaries for the year
  beginning January 1, 1994.  The Statement requires that investments
  in securities be classified into three categories: held-to-maturity,
  trading, and available-for-sale.  Net unrealized gains and losses,
  net of tax, on available-for-sale securities are reported as a
  separate component of stockholders' equity, whereas unrealized gains 
  and losses on trading securities are included in income.  As a  
  result of adopting the Statement, available-for-sale securities are
  reported at their estimated fair value, and the resulting unrealized 
  gain or loss, net of tax, is included in stockholders' equity.  The 
  cumulative effect on stockholders' equity at January 1, 1994, of the
  accounting change was an increase of $2,066,307, net of the related
  deferred income taxes.

  Effective January 1, 1993, the Corporation and its subsidiaries
  adopted the provisions of FASB Statement No. 109, "Accounting for 
  Income Taxes."  The cumulative effect of adopting Statement
  No. 109 was to increase 1993 income by $174,160 or $.15 per share. 
  Statement No. 109 requires the liability method be used to calculate 
  deferred income taxes.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and
  liabilities are recognized on temporary differences between the
  financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using 
  applicable enacted tax rates.


NOTE C - ACQUISITION

  On January 1, 1994, the Corporation acquired for cash all of the
  outstanding common stock of Charter Holding Company, Inc. (Charter),
  the parent holding company of First State Bank.  Charter had no
  business activity other than its 80% ownership of First State Bank's
  common stock and was liquidated after the acquisition.  The 
  Corporation subsequently obtained an additional 19.2% of First State
  Bank's common stock for cash bringing its total ownership to 99.2%. 
  The total acquisition cost was approximately $9.1 million.  The
  excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of the net assets
  acquired (goodwill) is included in intangible assets in the
  consolidated financial statements.

  The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase, and the 
  results of operations of First State Bank since January 1, 1994, are
  included in the consolidated financial statements.  Unaudited pro 
  forma consolidated results of operations for the year ended 
  December 31, 1993, as though First State Bank had been acquired on
  January 1, 1993, follow:

                                                           1993  
                                                       ___________ 

    Interest and other income                          $40,456,364
    Net income                                           6,742,340
    Net income per common share                              $5.62




NOTE D - SECURITIES


  Securities at December 31, 1995 and 1994, consisted of
  available-for-sale securities with a carrying amount of 
  $147,270,286 and $145,794,809, respectively, and securities
  to be held-to-maturity with a carrying amount of $32,073,166 and
  $30,351,312, respectively.  The amortized cost, gross unrealized
  gains, gross unrealized losses and estimated fair value of these

  Gross gains of $14,761 and $122,379 and gross losses of $200,284 and
  $278,266 were realized on available-for-sale securities in 1995 and
  1994, respectively.

  Securities with a carrying value of $96,913,000 and $99,183,000 at
  December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, were pledged to secure  
  public and trust deposits and for other purposes as required by
  law.

  Banking regulations define "high-risk mortgage securities" as
  mortgage derivative products that are determined through testing to 
  have more volatility, particularly price volatility, than a benchmark
  mortgage pass-through security.  It is the policy of NBC and First
  State Bank not to invest in "high-risk mortgage securities."  If, 
  subsequent to its purchase, the security through testing is
  identified as high-risk, the policy is for the security to be sold.  
  At December 31, 1995 and 1994, securities included no "high-risk
  mortgage securities."

  79,955 shares of the Corporation's common stock.  Contributions
  to the 401(k) plan amounted to $54,886 in 1995, $54,180 in 1994, and
  $45,079 in 1993.  


NOTE J - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

  In the normal course of business, loans are made to directors and
  executive officers and to companies in which they have a significant
  ownership interest.  In the opinion of management, these loans are
  made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and
  collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable 
  transactions with other parties, and are consistent with sound  
  banking practices and are within applicable regulatory and lending
  limitations.  The activity in loans to directors, executive officers,
  and their affiliates during 1995 is summarized as follows:

    Loans outstanding at January 1, 1995                   $ 9,781,275
    New loans                                                5,918,782

    Loans outstanding at December 31, 1995                 $ 6,995,084
                                                           ===========

  Also, in the normal course of business NBC and First State Bank
  entered into transactions for services with companies and firms 
  whose principals are directors and stockholders.


NOTE K - REGULATORY MATTERS

  Dividends paid by the Corporation are provided from dividends
  received from its subsidiary banks.  The amount of dividends that 
  can be paid by banks without prior approval of banking regulators 
  is subject to maintaining minimum financial standards and capital
  ratios.  The Board of Directors of each bank may, subject to these  
  regulatory limitations, declare dividends of so much of the bank's 
  net retained profits as determined to be expedient.  

  Banks are required to maintain minimum amounts of capital to total
  "risk weighted" assets, as defined by the banking regulators.  At 
  December 31, 1995, banks are required to have a minimum Tier 1 and
  total capital ratios of 4.0% and 8.0%, respectively.  The actual
  ratios of NBC and First State Bank at December 31, 1995, exceeded 
  the minimum requirements.

  Aggregate cash reserves of $2,202,000 were maintained at December 31,
  1995, to satisfy federal regulatory requirements.


NOTE L - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

  The consolidated financial statements do not reflect various
  commitments and contingent liabilities which arise in the normal 
  course of banking business and which involve elements of credit 
  risk, interest rate risk, and liquidity risk.  The commitments 
  and contingent liabilities are commitments to extend credit, 
  credit card lines, and commercial and similar letters of credit.  
  A summary of commitments and contingent liabilities at December 31, 
  1995 and 1994, is as follows:

                                                      1995      1994
                                                    ________  ________  
    
   Commitments to extend credit                     $ 42,924  $ 43,819
   Credit card lines                                   2,540     2,445
   Commercial and similar letters of credit            3,189     3,779

  Commitments to extend credit, credit card lines, and commercial and
  similar letters of credit include some exposure to credit loss in 
  the event of nonperformance of the customer.  The credit policies 
  and procedures for such commitments are the same as those used for
  lending activities.  Because these instruments have fixed maturity 
  dates and because a number expire without being drawn upon, they
  generally do not present any significant liquidity risk.  No
  significant losses on commitments were incurred in 1995 or 1994, 
  nor are any significant losses as a result of these transactions
  anticipated.


NOTE M - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT

  Most of the loans, commitments and letters of credit of NBC and First
  State Bank have been granted to customers in their market areas.
  Generally, such customers are also depositors.  Investments in state
  and municipal securities also involve governmental entities within
  the banks' market areas.  The concentrations of credit by type of 
  loan are set forth in Note E.  The distribution of commitments to
  extend credit approximates the distribution of loans outstanding. 
  Letters of credit were granted primarily to commercial borrowers.

NOTE O - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

  Disclosures about financial instruments at December 31, 1995 and
  1994, are presented, as required by FASB Statement No. 107.  The  
  Corporation and its subsidiaries are not holders of derivative 
  financial instruments as defined by FASB Statement No. 119, nor 
  are there any off-balance sheet risks associated with these types 
  of instruments.  The following information does not purport to 
  represent the aggregate consolidated fair value of the Corporation.

  The carrying amounts presented are the amounts at which the financial
  instruments are reported in the consolidated financial statements.


   Cash and Cash Equivalents

  The balance sheets carrying amounts for cash and due from banks and
  short-term investments (interest-bearing deposits and federal funds 
  sold) approximate the fair values of such assets.  At December 31,
  1995 and 1994, the carrying amount of cash and due from banks and
  short-term investments was $28,393,116 and $24,554,008, respectively.

  Securities

  The estimated fair value of securities is based on quoted market
  prices, if available.  The estimated fair value is based on quoted 
  market prices of comparable instruments, if quoted market prices are  
  not available.

  Loans

  For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and entail no
  significant changes in credit use, estimated fair values are based 
  on the carrying amounts.  The estimated fair value of all other 
  loans is estimated based on discounted cash flow analysis using 
  interest rates currently offered for loans with similar terms.

  Deposit Liabilities

  Fair values of demand deposits and savings accounts are defined by
  FASB Statement No. 107 as the amounts payable.  The fair value of 
  fixed rate certificates of deposit is estimated using a discounted
  cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being
  offered.  The carrying amount of variable rate certificates of
  deposit approximates their fair value at the reporting date.

  FASB Statement No. 107 prohibits adjustment for any value derived
  from the expected retention of deposits for a future time period.
  That value, often referred to as a core deposit intangible, is
  neither included in the fair value amounts nor recorded as an
  intangible asset in the consolidated balance sheets.

  Borrowed Funds

  The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased and other short-term
  borrowings approximate their fair value.  At December 31, 1995 and 
  1994, the carrying amounts were $455,684 and $19,273,792, 
  respectively.

  The fair values of long-term borrowings are estimated using
  discounted cash flow analysis, based upon NBC's current incremental
  borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

  Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

  Off-balance sheet financial instruments consist of commitments to
  extend credits, letters of credit, credit card lines, etc.   
  Generally, these instruments have a term of thirty days to one year.  
  Management is of the opinion the estimated fair value is not 
  significantly different than the contractual or notational amounts.  
  At December 31, 1995 and 1994, these instruments totaled $48,653,000 
  and $50,043,000, respectively.
