                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Trustees of
The First National Bank of West Chester
401(K) Plan
West Chester, PA 19381


We have audited the accompanying  statement of net assets available for benefits
of The First National Bank of West Chester - 401(K) Plan as of December 31, 1994
and 1993, the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits,
and supplemental  schedules for the years then ended. These financial statements
and supplemental  schedules are the  responsibility of the Trustees of The First
National Bank of West Chester - 401(K) Plan. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards  require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements and supplemental  schedules 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 the  trustees as well as  evaluating  the  overall  financial
statement  presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable  basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and supplemental  schedules referred to
above present  fairly,  in all material  respects,  the net assets of the 401(K)
Plan as of  December  31,  1994 and 1993,  and the changes in net assets for the
years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

     requirement.  The  Plan  is  subject  to the  provisions  of  the  Employee
     Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

     CONTRIBUTIONS

     For the fiscal year  during  which the Plan is adopted and each fiscal year
     thereafter,  the employer  shall  contribute  to the Plan the amount of the
     total  salary  reduction  elections  of  all  participants  and a  matching
     contribution of the deferred  compensation of all participants  eligible to
     share in allocations,  except only salary  reductions up to five percent of
     compensation shall be considered.

     Effective  January  1, 1994,  the Plan has been  amended  to  increase  the
     employer  matching  contribution  to  seventy-five  percent of the deferred
     compensation  up to five percent of the employee's  eligible  compensation.
     Prior  to  January  1,  1994,  the  employer   matching   contribution  was
     twenty-five percent of the deferred compensation.

     PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

     Each participant's account is credited with the participant's  contribution
     and  an  allocation  of  the  Company's  contribution  and  Plan  earnings.
     Allocations are based in the same proportion that a participant's aggregate
     account bears to the total of all  participants'  aggregate  accounts as of
     such date.

     VESTING

     Under this Plan,  participant  accounts  are 100% vested at all times.  Any
     amounts that may  otherwise  be forfeited  under this Plan shall be used to
     reduce the contribution of the employer.

NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (continued)

     PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

     On  termination  of service,  a participant  may elect to receive  either a
     lump-sum  amount or annual  installments  over a period  not to exceed  ten
     years.

     As of  January 1,  1993,  a plan  amendment  allows a  distribution  of the
     accrued  benefit in the form of whole shares in The First  National Bank of
     West  Chester or in a  combination  of cash to the extent  that the accrued
     benefit is invested in The First National Bank of West Chester Stock Fund.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Valuation of  Investments - If available,  quoted market prices are used to
     value  investments.  Any unlisted  security held in the Trust Fund shall be
     valued at its bid price, which is to be determined at the close of business
     on the valuation date.

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

     For purposes of these  financial  statements,  the Plan considers all money
     market funds to be cash equivalents.

NOTE C - INVESTMENTS

     The Plan's  investments  are held by a  bank-administered  trust fund.  The
     following table presents the fair values of those investments.  Investments
     that  represent  5% or  more  of  the  Plan's  net  assets  are  separately
     identified.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Board of Trustees of
The First National Bank of West Chester
401(K) Plan
West Chester, PA  19381

We have audited the statements of net assets available for benefits of The First
national  Bank of West  Chester - 401(K) Plan as of December  31, 1992 and 1991,
and the related  statements of changes in net assets  available for benefits for
the years then ended.  These financial  statements are the responsibility of the
Trustees  of The  First  National  Bank of  West  Chester  -  401(K)  Plan.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion of these financial  statements based on
our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
These standards  require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance   about  whether  the  financial   statements  are  free  of  material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting  principals used and significant  estimates made by the
trustees as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We
believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets of the 401(K) Plan as of December 31, 1992
and 1991,  and the changes in net assets for the years then ended in  conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

              THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF WEST CHESTER - 401(K) PLAN

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           DECEMBER 31, 1992 AND 1991


NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

     The following brief  description of The First national Bank of West Chester
     - 401(K) Plan is provided for general  purpose  only.  Participants  should
     refer to the Plan agreement for more complete information.

     GENERAL

     The Plan is a defined  contribution plan covering those eligible  employees
     who choose to  participate  in the Plan.  Any  employee  who has  completed
     ninety  (90)  days of  service  with  the  employer  and  who is  regularly
     scheduled  to work a minimum of one  thousand  (1,000)  hours per Plan year
     shall be  eligible  to  participate  as of the day  he/she  satisfied  such
     requirement.  It is subject to the  provisions  of the Employee  Retirement
     Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

     CONTRIBUTIONS

     For the fiscal year  during  which the Plan is adopted and each fiscal year
     thereafter,  the employer  shall  contribute  to the Plan the amount of the
     total  salary  reduction  elections  of  all  participants  and a  matching
     contribution equal to twenty-five  percent of the deferred  compensation of
     all  participants  eligible  to share in  allocations,  except  only salary
     reductions up to five percent of compensation shall be considered.

     As of  January 1, 1992,  a plan  amendment  has  increased  the  employer's
     matching  contribution to 50% of the deferred  compensation of all members,
     up to five percent of the employee's compensation.

     Also, effective January 1, 1992, the employer's matching contribution shall
     be invested in the First West Chester Corporation stock fund.

     PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

     Each participant's account is credited with the participant's  contribution
     and  an  allocation  of  the  Company's  contribution  and  Plan  earnings.
     Allocations are based in the same proportion that a participant's aggregate
     account bears to the total of all  participants'  aggregate  accounts as of
     such date.

                                       -5-

     VESTING

     Under this Plan,  participant  accounts  are 100% vested at all times.  Any
     amounts that may  otherwise  be forfeited  under this Plan shall be used to
     reduce the contribution of the employer.

     PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

     On  termination  of service,  a participant  may elect to receive  either a
     lump-sum  amount or annual  installments  over a period  not to exceed  ten
     years.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Valuation of  Investments - If available,  quoted market prices are used to
     value  investments.  Any unlisted  security held in the Trust Fund shall be
     valued at its bid price, which is to be determined at the close of business
     of the valuation date.

NOTE C - INVESTMENTS

     The Plan's  investments  are held by a  bank-administered  trust fund.  The
     following table presents the fair values of those investments.  Investments
     that  represent  5% or  more  of  the  Plan's  net  assets  are  separately
     identified.
